 Anarchism: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions), 2nd Edition by Alex Prichard English | November 25, 2022 | ISBN: 0198815611 | True EPUB | 160 pages | 1.7 MB If you asked a passerby on the street what anarchism is, they may answer that it is an ideology based on chaos, disorder, and violence. But is this true? What exactly is anarchism?  Sarah Cooper, "Analysing Gender in Healthcare: The Politics of Sex and Reproduction " English | ISBN: 3031087275 | 2022 | 256 pages | PDF | 4 MB This book explores regulatory conundrums around adolescent sexual health, abortion and assisted reproductive technologies in the UK. In doing so, it seeks to examine the various stages at which women's reproductive health comes into contact with government action and assesses how these legal and policy fields are shaped through the conceptual lens of policy networks. Transformed expectations of women's roles, along with developed biological capabilities and understandings of gender and sexuality have driven an increasingly complex politics of sex and reproduction. The book argues that assumed medial control over these issues is overshadowed by government calculations of cost-effectiveness. Moreover, decisions on the design of programmes and levels of access continually reflect traditional family formation. The outcome is unsurprisingly the marginalisation of women in publicly funded healthcare, but with a clear further impact on gender and sex minorities. COVID-19 has disrupted these dynamics further, altering the manner in which previously inhibited patients engage with the NHS. As the pandemic recedes it has become more timely than ever to consider the future of gendered healthcare in the UK, and to question the likelihood of long term change in the ability of patients to inform health policy decisions. The book will appeal to scholars and students of gender and health policy, law and politics, as well as healthcare practitioners.  J.N.

 Vicente Julián, "Ambient Intelligence―Software and Applications―13th International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence " English | ISBN: 3031223551 | 2023 | 273 pages | PDF | 31 MB This book presents the latest research on Ambient Intelligence including software and applications. Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a paradigm emerging from Artificial Intelligence, where computers are used as proactive tools assisting people with their day-to-day activities, making everyone's life more comfortable. The inclusion of computational power and communication technologies in everyday objects is growing, and their embedding into our environments should be as invisible as possible. In order for AmI to be successful, human interaction with computing power and embedded systems in the surroundings should be smooth and happen without people actually noticing it. The only awareness people should have arises from AmI: more safety, comfort and wellbeing, emerging in a natural and inherent way. ISAmI is the International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence, aiming to bring together researchers from various disciplines that constitute the scientific field of AmI to present and discuss the latest results, new ideas, projects and lessons learned.  Roger Caro, Lenny Pedersen, "Alchemical Pleiade" English | 2015 | pages: 289 | ISBN: 4990663624 | PDF | 165,4 mb 'Alchemy, dear friend, contains various traps most dark, And many researchers release the prey to the shadow in this Art. Behold, in a few verses, the tale of the Great Work in sincerity For those who solemnly seek it; may they herein find clarity.' Thus begins the first treatise of the "Alchemical Pleiade", one of the core writings of the French Rosicrucian Order, Frères Aînés de la Rose+Croix, and the Second of the Three Keys on the Magnum Opus as practiced by this Fraternity. The method of confecting the legendary Philosopher's Stone studied & practically executed by this highly secretive Brotherhood is nowadays famous among alchemists as the Cinnabar Path, but outside of the French alchemical community this amazing Way of the Great Work is very poorly understood due to by far most of the teachings thereof being in French. Yet now, for the first time in the history of the F.A.R.+C., one of the original publications of the Order, consisting of a compilation of official papers written by the Adepts of the Alchemical Temple of Ajunta, has finally become available in an official English translation. Among the contents in the "Alchemical Pleiade", one finds analyses of certain enigmas of old alchemical writings, a beautiful poem providing a complete overview of the Way of Cinnabar, various fascinating treatises dealing with the alchemical interpretation of biblical texts and much more. And in the midst of all these beautiful allegories, analogies and philosophical expressions, the theory, philosophy, mechanics and practice of the entire Cinnabar Path of the F.A.R.+C. is revealed.
