We are talking about millions to hundreds of millions years ago.The objects described in this book provide lots of evidence that they really originated in the deep past. These things include metal containers found in seams of coal, and spark plugs encased in rock which should not exist.There are also ancient footprints of giants which were created before land animals are believed to have existed.This information along with that from my previous books on ancient civilizations leads to the startling conclusion that an ancient race of giants existed in the distant past.Learn more about what these objects are and how they all tie together to create a vision of an amazing past of civilization on Earth.

Statecraft and the Political Economy of Capitalism English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031159705 | 283 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 2 MB Rising inequality, the advance of far-right populism, ecological and climatic catastrophe and the scourge of global pandemic disease - these are among the defining crises of our time. Addressing the governing challenges posed by each requires a more expansive vision of the scope and possibilities of state action than political scientists and economists have furnished to date. InStatecraft and the Political Economy of Capitalismpolitical economists Scott G. Nelson and Joel T. Shelton examine several key social and political dynamics of advanced capitalism for insights into the fate of equality, community and solidarity. In chapters addressing divergent problems and spanning several centuries, statecraft is presented as a conceptual lens through which the art and practice of public action is continually rearticulated in response to the shifting economic, social and political conditions of a given epoch. The authors examine several consequential moments in the long tradition of political economy in relation to the governing predicaments of the present day, highlighting those predicaments that bear upon the well-being of all people, especially society's most vulnerable. The book thus reintroduces the creative and purposive aspects of governing to the study and practice of Political Economy, a field that has been too preoccupied with technical, institutional and procedural aspects of economic management. Framing problems of governing national and global economies in relation to the craft of the state means searching out continuities between capitalism's early promise and present peril.

 Marta Hanson, "Speaking of Epidemics in Chinese Medicine: Disease and the Geographic Imagination in Late Imperial China" English | 2011 | pages: 282 | ISBN: 041560253X | PDF | 5,6 mb This book traces the history of the Chinese concept of "Warm diseases" (wenbing) from antiquity to the SARS epidemic. Following wenbing from its birth to maturity and even life in modern times Marta Hanson approaches the history of Chinese medicine from a new angle. She explores the possibility of replacing older narratives that stress progress and linear development with accounts that pay attention to geographic, intellectual, and cultural diversity. By doing so her book integrates the history of Chinese medicine into broader historical studies in a way that has not so far been attempted, and addresses the concerns of a readership much wider than that of Chinese medicine specialists.  Savyasaachi, Ravi Kumar, "Social Movements: Transformative Shifts and Turning Points" English | 2014 | pages: 389 | ISBN: 0415717361, 1138500232 | PDF | 4,4 mb This volume attempts to show the emerging contours of 'transformative action' in social movements across South Asia. It argues that these contours have been shaped by contestations over questions of equity, justice and well-being on the one hand, and the nature and scope of new and classical social movements on the other. This is manifest in diverse modes through people's struggles, protest and dissent.

Shakespeare and the Mismeasure of Renaissance Man By Paula Blank 2006 | 232 Pages | ISBN: 0801444756 | PDF | 17 MB Shakespeare's poems and plays are rich in reference to "measure, number, and weight," which were the key terms of an early modern empirical and quantitative imagination. Shakespeare's investigation of Renaissance measures of reality centers on the consequences of applying principles of measurement to the appraisal of human value. This is especially true of efforts to judge people as better or worse than, or equal to, one another. With special attention to the Sonnets, Measure for Measure, Merchant of Venice, Othello, King Lear, and Hamlet, Paula Blank argues that Shakespeare, in his experiments with measurement, demonstrates the incommensurability of the aims and operations of quantification with human experience.From scales and spans to squares and levels to ratings and rules, Shakespeare's rhetoric of measurement reveals the extent to which language in the Renaissance was itself understood as a set of alternative measures for figuring human worth. In chapters that explore attempts to measure human feeling, weigh human equalities (and inequalities), regulate race relations, and deduce social and economic merit, Blank shows why Shakespeare's measures are so often exposed as "mismeasures"―equivocal, provisional, and as unreliable as the men and women they are designed to assess.
