 Free Download Stephen Wade, "Tracing Your Police Ancestors (Tracing your Ancestors)" English | 2009 | ISBN: 1844158780 | EPUB | pages: 160 | 2.3 mb Tracing Your Police Ancestors will help you locate and research officers who served in any of the police forces of England and Wales from the creation of the Metropolitan Police by Sir Robert Peel in 1829. Assuming that the reader has no prior knowledge of how or where to look for such information, Stephen Wade explains and describes the various archives and records and provides a discussion of other sources. Case studies are used to show how an individual officer's career may be traced and understood from this research. He also explains the range of secondary sources open to the family or local historian, many of which offer a broader account of the social and cultural history of the British police forces.  Free Download Tourism and Biopolitics in Pandemic Times English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031463986 | 160 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 3 MB This edited collection brings together interventions on the geographies of tourism in pandemic times approached from a biopolitical perspective. Whilst the "management of bodies" has always been a constitutive part of tourism and its spatialities, the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted the emergence of entirely new "states of exception" and emergency regimes, geared towards tight restrictions and control over the mobility and embodied practices of millions of travelers and tourists. Debates in tourism over the "politics of life", now more than ever, ought to concern health and wellbeing for both individuals and selected populations, not in the least because tourism has provided in many instances the socio-spatial conditions for the virus to spread. This book intends to show how a biopolitical analytical framework may provide a set of insights and critical perspectives that are key to the understanding of contemporary tourism practices and regimes of mobility, security, and in/exclusion - particularly in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Free Download Simona Forti, "Totalitarianism: A Borderline Idea in Political Philosophy " English | ISBN: 1503637379 | 2024 | 182 pages | EPUB, PDF | 682 KB + 19 MB  Free Download Topik By Rudolf Boehm (auth.) 2002 | 210 Pages | ISBN: 9048160227 | PDF | 8 MB "Wahr" oder "unwahr" scheinen Prädikate, die nur einer Aussage zukommen können. Die Frage, auf die eine Aussage antwortet, das Thema, worauf sie sich einläßt, der Gegenstand, über den sie sich ausspricht, scheinen nicht "wahr" oder "verkehrt", sondern allenfalls "interessant" oder "uninteressant" sein zu können. Die Frage der Topik, wie sie hier gestellt und erörtert wird, ist dahingegen die, ob sich nicht auch für eine Frage, ein Thema, einen Gegenstand, verbunden mit der Frage des Interesses, eine Frage der Wahrheit (die Frage einer "topischen Wahrheit") stellt, da sonst die Frage nach der `mogischen Wahrheit' einer Aussage buchstäblich gegenstandlos zu werden Gefahr läuft. In einem ersten Kapitel soll im Hinblick auf eine Reihe von Phänomenen (vom `Betrug' bis hin zur `Diskussion') gezeigt sein, daß sich eine solche Frage der Topik in der Tat stellt; im zweiten Kapitel, daß sie sich auch längst schon, sei es auch nicht unter diesem Namen, in der modernen Wissenschaftsphilosophie (von Kant bis Thomas Kuhn) erhoben hat. Das dritte Kapitel ist ein Versuch zur Grundlegung einer Antwort auf die Frage der Topik. Das vierte Kapitel soll zeigen, daß die gewöhnliche Ausflucht aus der Frage der Topik selber auf einer eigentümlichen Antwort auf die Frage der Topik beruht.  Free Download Janet Britton, "To Live Each Moment: One Woman's Struggle Against Cancer" English | 2014 | ISBN: 1502963205 | EPUB | pages: 316 | 0.4 mb A 33-year-old teacher and foster mother created a gift of words for her young children. Her upbeat narrative of treatment for breast cancer shows how laughter and the support of God and people help us live fully in all circumstances. Now, three decades later, Janet reissues this book to encourage the wife of her granddaughter's basketball coach, just diagnosed with breast cancer, also at 33. Janet Britton had just turned thirty-three when she found out she had cancer. Her children needed her. So did her husband. She didn't have time for surgery, radiation treatment or chemotherapy.But the lump was malignant, and, without her permission, Janet was hurled into a world of dazzling operating rooms, icy bedpans and endless tubes and needles. With her we experience the terror of the unknown, the exhaustion of living in a rebellious body, the frustration of dealing with insensitive friends and health-care professionals and the relief of finding others who truly understand.Intending her story to be a gift of words for her young children, Janet describes the emotions and events of her treatment with both laughter and tears. Because cancer strikes three out four American families, few escape its effects. Cancer changes everything. It destroys some, but it can also nudge some to begin to live each moment with joy and purpose.As Janet battles a potential death sentence, she seeks strength through God and discovers what it truly means to be alive. While others support her in her fight, Janet continues to support her own loved ones, struggling with addiction, abuse and the impact of suicide.Now, thirty years later, after a second bout of cancer, Janet reissues her book for the wife of her granddaughter's basketball coach, just diagnosed with breast cancer at age thirty-three. Janet encourages this young mother by pointing out the improvements of treatment in the last three decades. Janet knows that though medical protocol has changed, emotions of those dealing with cancer remain the same.At the end of this edition, Janet updates readers on the original characters in her memoir in a new postscript titled, "Still Living Each Moment."
