 José Esteban Muñoz, "Cruising Utopia, 10th Anniversary Edition: The Then and There of Queer Futurity " English | ISBN: 1479874566 | 2019 | 280 pages | MOBI | 5 MB A 10th anniversary edition of this field defining work―an intellectual inspiration for a generation of LGBTQ scholars  Richard J. Aldrich, "Crown, Cloak, and Dagger: The British Monarchy and Secret Intelligence from Victoria to Elizabeth II " English | ISBN: 1647123712 | 2023 | 472 pages | AZW3 | 2 MB Surprising revelations about the active role of the monarch in British intelligence  Crosshatch: Martha Schofield, the Forgotten Feminist (1839-1916) by Christina Larocco English | March 18, 2025 | ISBN: 1963614089 | 267 pages | PDF | 9.47 Mb If Louisa May Alcott had imagined a fifth March sister, she might have been a lot like activist and educator Martha Schofield (1839- 1916): passionate about equality, determined to break free from the restrictions of nineteenth-century society, yearning equally for both purpose and love. Crosshatch follows Schofield from the Underground Railroad outposts of southeastern Pennsylvania to war-ravaged South Carolina. As an abolitionist, a women' s suffragist, and a white teacher of Black students, she spent a lifetime attempting to develop (however imperfectly) an antiracist feminist vision. Based on Schofield' s letters and diaries, Crosshatch provides unparalleled access to the intimate details of a nineteenth-century woman' s personal life: her love affairs with both women and men, her rocky mental and physical health, her thoughts as she watched wounded soldiers die after the Battle of Gettysburg or stared down Ku Klux Klan members during Reconstruction. More than a biography, Crosshatch uses Schofield' s life to make sense out of our own chaotic times. It is a testament to the power of history to shape our lives and to the urgency of listening to women' s voices.  Critically Constituting Organization (Advances in Organization Studies) By Andrew Chan 2000 | 149 Pages | ISBN: 1556199953 | PDF | 1 MB Based upon ideas by Foucault, this title attempts a postmodern appreciation of the historical methodologies associated with postmodern thinking/philosophies to provide a systematic exploration of the ways in which the concept of culture has been deployed in managerial theory and practice. Andrew Chan critically re-constitutes the ways in which organizational knowledge is produced, and in the process, he raises some questions about the nature and important issues pertinent to the concerns of scholars and students in organization theory and behaviour, cultural studies and sociology.

Critical Realism and Composition Theory (Routledge Studies in Critical Realism, 7) By Donald Judd 2003 | 176 Pages | ISBN: 0415280494 | PDF | 1 MB The field of composition theory has emerged as part of the intellectual turmoil and set of pedagogical debates which have beset higher education for the last four decades and is now revolutionizing the theory and praxis of higher education. This volume examines three of the dominant pedagogical theories within composition theory: expressivist, cognitivist, and social-constructivist and builds its critique on the fact that much of modern composition theory has focused on epistemological concerns while neglecting the ontological foundations of that which is being discussed.Critical Realism and Composition Theory offers an alternative approach to teaching composition. This problem-oriented alternative is designed to lead students beyond the abstract, contemplative description of a problem to an expanded understanding that shows that concerns for justice cannot be addressed intellectually without at the same time confronting the practical constraints that limiting powers of social institutions play in both defining a problem and its social solution.  Critical Issues in Weather Modification Research By Committee on the Status and Future Directions in U.S Weather Modification Research and Operations, National Research Council 2003 | 144 Pages | ISBN: 0309090539 | PDF | 2 MB The weather on planet Earth is a vital and sometimes fatal force in human affairs. Efforts to control or reduce the harmful impacts of weather go back far in time. In this, the latest National Academies assessment of weather modification, the committee was asked to assess the ability of current and proposed weather modification capabilities to provide beneficial impacts on water resource management and weather hazard mitigation. It examines new technologies, reviews advances in numerical modelling on the cloud and mesoscale, and considers how improvements in computer capabilities might be applied to weather modification. "Critical Issues in Weather Modification Research" examines the status of the science underlying weather modification in the United States. It calls for a coordinated national research program to answer fundamental questions about basic atmospheric processes, and to address other issues that are impeding progress in weather modification.  Victor Monnin, "Critical History for Tomorrow's Paleontology " English | ISBN: 1009771329 | 2026 | 75 pages | PDF | 1465 KB This Element argues for the benefits of integrating the perspectives of a new historiography of paleontology in the training of upcoming paleontologists and in the paleontological community's culture more broadly. Wrestling with the complex legacy of its past, the paleontological community is facing the need to reappreciate its history to address issues of accessibility and equity affecting the field, such as gender gap, parachute science, and specimen repatriation. The ability of the paleontological community to address these issues depends partly on the nature of its engagement with the past in which they find their source. This Element provides a conceptual toolkit to help with the interpretation of the unprecedented position in which the paleontological community finds itself regarding its past. It also introduces historiographical resources and provides some suggestions to foster collaboration between paleontology and the history of paleontology.
