 William Walter Scott III, "Hurt, Baby, Hurt" English | ISBN: 0472039768 | 2025 | 142 pages | EPUB | 1002 KB The 1967 Detroit Rebellion was the bloodiest of the urban riots in the United States during the "Long hot summer of 1967." Hurt, Baby, Hurt takes a personal look at the Rebellion from the perspective of William Walter Scott, III. The Rebellion began when police raided an unlicensed drinking club owned by Scott's father and continued for five days, resulting in forty-three deaths and even more injuries, fires, and arrests. Scott, who was just 19 at the time and working as a doorman at his father's club, is widely recognized as the man who started the Rebellion by throwing a bottle at one of the police officers.  Cristina Brito, "Humans and Aquatic Animals in Early Modern America and Africa " English | ISBN: 946372821X | 2023 | 270 pages | EPUB | 2 MB This book deals with peoples' practices, perceptions, emotions and feelings towards aquatic animals, their ecosystems and nature on the early modern Atlantic coasts by addressing exploitation, use, fear, empathy, otherness, and indifference in the relationships established with aquatic environments and resources by Indigenous Peoples and Europeans. It focuses on large aquatic fauna, especially manatees (but also sharks, sea turtles, seals, and others) as they were hunted, consumed, venerated, conceptualised, and recorded by different societies across the early colonial Americas and West Africa. Through a cross-cultural approach drawing on concepts and analytical methods from marine environmental history, the blue humanities and animal studies, this book addresses more-than-human systems where ecologies, geographies, cosmogonies, and cultures are an entangled web of interdependencies.  Rebecca Gill, "Humanitarian handicraft: History, materiality and trade, c. 1840-1980 " English | ISBN: 1526188023 | 2025 | 304 pages | EPUB | 9 MB This book uncovers the overlooked history of artisanal textiles in projects aimed at social uplift and moral reform. The contributors ask what the implications of this form of gendered craft production are for our understanding of the humanitarian imagination, relations of humanitarian production and the generation of meaning and social and artistic value. It also opens a dialogue with contemporary socially-engaged textile artists to engender critical reflection on the socially-situated meaning of textile craft in past and present humanitarian contexts.

Leslie Collier, "Human Virology" English | ISBN: 0198714688 | 2016 | 350 pages | PDF | 94 MB Viruses are some of the simplest infectious agents on the planet, yet can cause severe and even life-threatening diseases in all forms of life - including humans. Despite relying on host cells in order to replicate, viruses can be capable of extremely rapid reproduction and very effective transmission from one person to another. Because of this, they have historically represented a significant proportion of the disease burden affecting humans, in addition to a number of new high profile diseases which have emerged in the last century. However, on a more positive note, the only two diseases to have ever been eradicated by mankind were both viruses, giving hope that in the future more viruses can be eliminated.  S.

Human Rights and Religions: Non-State Actors and Their Correlation with Human Rights by Peter G. Kirchschlaeger English | November 17, 2025 | ISBN: 3031944135 | 283 pages | True ePUB, PDF | 4.71 Mb Offering a critical, comprehensive, and holistic discussion of the validity of human rights inside and outside of religious communities, this book explores the relationship between religious communities, abstract "religion", and human rights from an ethical perspective. The work also provides a rounded discussion on human rights-obligations and-responsibilities of religions communities and worldview-based communities as well as of non-state actors. Prompting religions and worldview-based communities to redefine their relationship to the liberal state, this book allows for ethical conclusions to be drawn about other non-state actors, their relationship to human rights, and their means to peacefully coexistence in secular society. The book is therefore an attractive read for scholars interested in the social and religion dimensions of Human Rights and Religions.
