 Hinda Mandell, "Crafting Dissent: Handicraft as Protest from the American Revolution to the Pussyhats " English | ISBN: 1538156105 | 2021 | 360 pages | EPUB | 17 MB Pussyhats, typically crafted with yarn, quite literally created a sea of pink the day after Donald J.

Conversation Analytic Language Teacher Education in Digital Spaces English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031191269 | 376 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 11 MB This book presents original research into language teacher education (LTE) activities in digital spaces, making use of a multimodal Conversation Analysis (CA) approach to examine multiple datasets and bring new insights into the theory, research, and practice of second/foreign language teacher education. The author conceptualizes a model of Conversation Analytic Language Teacher Education (CALTE), proposing a new knowledge base for LTE, identifying research-informed defining features, mapping the scope of an original praxis base, and providing research evidence from the implementation of this approach in and for digital spaces. The result is an argument for wide implementation and on-going improvement of the CALTE approach, and the book will be of interest to language teacher education professionals, multimodal CA researchers, and applied linguists.  Continental Reckoning: The American West in the Age of Expansion (History of the American West) by Elliott West English | February 1st, 2023 | ISBN: 1496233581 | 704 pages | True EPUB | 89/17.91 MB In Continental Reckoning renowned historian Elliott West presents a sweeping narrative of the American West and its vital role in the transformation of the nation. In the 1840s, by which time the United States had expanded to the Pacific, what would become the West was home to numerous vibrant Native cultures and vague claims by other nations. Thirty years later it was organized into states and territories and bound into the nation and world by an infrastructure of rails, telegraph wires, and roads and by a racial and ethnic order, with its Indigenous peoples largely dispossessed and confined to reservations.  Contemporary Psychoanalysis and Modern Jewish Philosophy: Two Languages of Love By Michael Oppenheim 2016 | 226 Pages | ISBN: 1138119423 | PDF | 2 MB Relational psychoanalysis and modern Jewish philosophy have much to say about the dynamics of human relationships, but there has been no detailed, thorough, and constructive examination that brings together these two incisive discourses. Contemporary Psychoanalysis and Modern Jewish Philosophy: Two Languages of Love explores the critical similarities and differences between the two disciplines, casting new light on both the analytic and philosophical understandings of how relationships develop, flourish, and fail. For psychoanalysts such as Hans Loewald, Stephen Mitchell, and Jessica Benjamin, love is seen as a fundamental life force, a key to human motivation, and the transformative core of Freud's therapeutic "talking cure." The Jewish philosophers Franz Rosenzweig, Martin Buber, and Emmanuel Levinas envision love as having both a human and divine dimension, expressed through the dual commandments to love God and the neighbor. The two languages are brought to life through chapters that investigate: the relationship between self-love and love of the other, the dynamics of intersubjectivity, the methods and possibilities of human transformation, the "magical" powers of language, the goal of achieving a meaningful life, the significance of responsibility for others, and the challenge that death poses to life's fullness. This multidisciplinary study, drawing on psychology, philosophy, religion, and feminism, provides an important contribution to contemporary scientific and humanistic interest in the social and relational dimensions of human living. The book will appeal especially to clinicians, theorists, and scholars of psychoanalysis, philosophy of religion, and Jewish studies as well as advanced students studying in these fields.  CompTIA Security+ Certification Bundle (Exam SY0-601), 4th Edition by Glen Clarke, Daniel Lachance English | 2021 | ISBN: 1260467996 | 1782 pages | PDF (Converted) | 42 Mb This money-saving collection covers every objective for the CompTIA Security+ exam and contains exclusive bonus content  Combined Operations: An Official History of Amphibious Warfare Against Hitler's Third Reich, 1940-1945 by John Grehan English | January 5th, 2023 | ISBN: 1399040227 | 432 pages | True EPUB | 13.13 MB From the warmer climate of the Mediterranean to the frozen wastes of Norway's Arctic islands, the Combined Operations organization was a persistent thorn in the side of Hitler's Third Reich. From mounting attacks against enemy-held coastlines with small teams of less than a dozen men, through to huge expeditions involving thousands of troops and other personnel, the headquarters of Combined Operations oversaw a wide variety of amphibious operations, all undertaken with the sole aim of tying down the Führer's forces.  Coincidance: A Head Test By Robert Anton Wilson 2018 | 382 Pages | ISBN: 0998713422 | EPUB | 1 MB This, for my money, is the most spectacular non-fiction work that Wilson ever penned, breathtakingly adventurous in both its content and its strikingly experimental form. Uncertain and demonstrably uncaring whether it's a piece of literary criticism, metaphysical discussion or anthology of diverse esoteric writings, this remarkable compendium is best seen, in the spirit of its title, as a glorious accidental dance of meaning, modernism and mythology. - Alan Moore, from his introduction to Coincidance - The Robert Anton Wilson Trust Authorized Hilaritas Press Edition  Coaching from A to Z and back again by Thomson, Bob; English | 2023 | ISBN: 1915080290 | 332 pages | True EPUB | 5.95 MB  Clarity by Smart, Jamie; English | 2023 | ISBN: 0857089366 | 334 pages | True PDF EPUB | 9.84 MB  Cinematic Reflections on The Legacy of the Holocaust: Psychoanalytic Perspectives By Diana Diamond (editor), Bruce Sklarew (editor) 2018 | 254 Pages | ISBN: 1138306967 | PDF | 3 MB An international group of psychoanalysts and film scholars address the enduring emotional legacy of the Holocaust in Cinematic Reflections on the Legacy of the Holocaust: Psychoanalytic Perspectives. Particular focus is given to how second and third generation survivors have explored and confronted the psychic reverberations of Holocaust trauma in cinema. This book focuses on how film is particularly suited to depict Holocaust experiences with vividness and immediacy. The similarity of moving images and sound to our dream experience allows access to unconscious processing. Film has the potential to reveal the vast panorama of Holocaust history as well as its intrapsychic reverberations. Yet despite the recent prominence of Holocaust films, documentaries, and TV series as well as scholarly books and memoirs, these works lack a psychoanalytic optic that elucidates themes such as the repetition compulsion, survival guilt, disturbances in identity, and disruption of mourning that are underlying leitmotifs. Cinematic Reflections on the Legacy of the Holocaust will be of great interest to psychoanalysts and therapists as well as to scholars in trauma, film, and Jewish studies. It is also of interest to those concerned with the prevention of genocide and mass atrocities and their long-term effects. |
