Delle, "The Colonial Caribbean: Landscapes of Power in Jamaica's Plantation System " English | ISBN: 0521767709 | 2014 | 266 pages | PDF | 11 MB The Colonial Caribbean is an archaeological analysis of the Jamaican plantation system at the turn of the nineteenth century. Focused specifically on coffee plantation landscapes and framed by Marxist theory, the analysis considers plantation landscapes using a multiscalar approach to landscape archaeology. James A. Delle considers spatial phenomena ranging from the diachronic settlement pattern of the island as a whole to the organization of individual house and yard areas located within the villages of enslaved workers. Delle argues that a Marxist approach to landscape archaeology provides a powerful theoretical framework to understand how the built environment played a direct role in the negotiation of social relations in the colonial Caribbean. ![]() Andrew Willard Jones, "The Church Against the State" English | ISBN: 1736506633 | 2025 | 321 pages | PDF | 13 MB The Church sees the world as God's good and harmonious Creation, a primordial peace. ![]() Dan Blumenthal, "The China Nightmare: The Grand Ambitions of a Decaying State" English | ISBN: 084475031X | 2020 | 176 pages | MOBI | 1504 KB This is a book about China's grand strategy and its future as an ambitious, declining, and dangerous rival power. Once the darling of U.S. statesmen, corporate elites, and academics, the People's Republic of China has evolved into America's most challenging strategic competitor. Its future appears increasingly dystopian. This book tells the story of how China got to this place and analyzes where it will go next and what that will mean for the future of U.S. strategy. The China Nightmare makes an extraordinarily compelling case that China's future could be dark and the free world must prepare accordingly. ![]() Rachel Murphy, "The Children of China's Great Migration" English | ISBN: 110883485X | 2020 | 304 pages | PDF | 6 MB In China in 2018 over 200 million rural migrants worked away from their home villages, fuelling the country's rapid economic boom. In the 2010s over sixty-one million rural children had at least one parent who had migrated without them, while nearly half had been left behind by both parents. Rachel Murphy draws on her longitudinal fieldwork in two landlocked provinces to explore the experiences of these left-behind children and to examine the impact of this great migration on childhood in China and on family relationships. Using children's voices, she provides a multi-faceted insight into experiences of parental migration, study pressures, poverty, institutional discrimination, patrilineal family culture, and reconfigured gendered and intergenerational relationships. ![]() Abdi Nazemian, "The Chandler Legacies" English | ISBN: 006303932X | 2022 | 336 pages | MOBI | 386 KB From the Stonewall Honor-winning author of Like a Love Story comes a revelatory novel about the enclosed world of privilege and silence at an elite boarding school and the unlikely group of friends who dare to challenge the status quo through their writing.

First, religious worldviews tend to presuppose a teleological understanding of the origins of living things, but scientists mostly understand evolution as non-teleological. Second, religious and scientific accounts of human origins do not align in a straightforward sense. Third, evolutionary explanations of religion, including religious beliefs and practices, may cast doubt on their justification. We show how these tensions arise and offer potential responses for religion. Individual religions can meet these challenges, if some of their metaphysical assumptions are adapted or abandoned. ![]() Jonah Berger, "The Catalyst: How to Change Anyone's Mind" English | ISBN: 1982108606 | 2020 | 288 pages | PDF | 4 MB "I am grateful to be one of the many who have learned from this master teacher." ![]() George MacDonald Fraser, "The Candlemass Road" English | ISBN: 0006477208 | 1998 | 180 pages | MOBI | 669 KB Based on real events of 400 years past, this is a vivid depiction of the terror and brutality of life on the Anglo-Scottish Border.

Beyond the law's protection, alone but for her servants and an elderly priest, Lady Margaret must somehow find the means to fight the terror approaching from the northern night. |
