Kutuzov: A Life in War and Peace by Alexander Mikaberidze English | August 1st, 2022 | ISBN: 0197546730 | 816 pages | True EPUB | 27.74 MB A full-life portrait of the man Tolstoy immortalized, Stalin lionized, and Russian history has manipulated and mythologized beyond recognition.  Knowledge Management for Regional Policymaking English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031156471 | 422 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 33 MB The present publication focusses the attention on new avenues in regional information and knowledge management, while we will zoom in particularly on the potential promises and hurdles of digital technology. This digital challenge has already generated a wealth of implications in the area of smart or intelligent cities, but as yet far less has been achieved in the field of regional planning and regional science. There is clearly a need for a more systematic and wide-ranging assessment and presentation of emerging approaches and concepts in this field, for instance, in regard to principles (e.g. geographic rule modeling), methodologies (e.g. blockchain systems), data analytics (e.g. machine learning) and data governance (e.g. data sovereignty) of regional information and knowledge. Especially in our 'big data' era, a systematic, comprehensible and reliable acquisition, storage, sharing and handling of data (e.g. on the basis of systematic decomposition and filtering principles) is more needed than ever before.
 David Hilliam, "Kings, Queens, Bones & Bastards: Who's Who in the English Monarchy from Egbert to Elizabeth II" English | ISBN: 0750935537 | 2004 | 256 pages | EPUB | 850 KB Who invented the "House of Windsor" as a royal name? Who founded Westminster Abbey? Which King had 21 illegitimate children? This engaging volume offers a continuous history of the English monarchy that shows how nine dynasties rose and fell, and uncovers the more unusual incidents of royal history.

David J. Knight, "King Lucius of Britain" English | ISBN: 0752445723 | 2008 | 192 pages | EPUB | 2 MB While everyone knows the story of King Arthur, few have heard of King Lucius, a figure who has been consigned to myth and largely forgotten in the annals of British history. Examining the primary sources as well as the archaeological evidence for this second century king, David Knight convincingly refutes the generally accepted view expounded at the beginning of the 20th century that identifies Lucius as King Abgarus of Edessa. He reconstructs the story of this fascinating figure who applied to the Pope for formal baptism in AD 177, making him the first Christian King in Britain, and traces the history of the story of Lucius, separating the myth from reality and attempting to restore this king to his rightful place in British history.  Christopher B. Barnett, "Kierkegaard and the Question Concerning Technology" English | ISBN: 162892666X | 2019 | 256 pages | PDF | 3 MB Over the last several decades, technology has emerged as an important area of interest for both philosophers and theologians. Yet, despite his status as one of modernity's seminal thinkers, Søren Kierkegaard is not often seen as one who contributed to the field. Kierkegaard and the Question Concerning Technology argues otherwise. Christopher B. Barnett shows that many of Kierkegaard's criticisms of "the present age" relate to the increasing dominance of technology in the West, and he puts Kierkegaard's thought in conversation with subsequent thinkers who grappled with technological issues, from Martin Heidegger to Thomas Merton.
