In this volume, Foster and Burkett expand on this analysis in the process of responding to recent ecosocialist criticisms of Marx. ![]() Free Download Ravinder Kaur and Rajni Palriwala, "Marrying in South Asia: Shifting Concepts, Changing Practices in a Globalising World" English | ISBN: 8125053557 | 2014 | 420 pages | PDF | 4 MB Marriage has long been central to the study of kinship and family and to imaginings of culture, identity and citizenship if the deeply gendered nature of marriage has been critiqued by feminist researchers, the conjugal contract has been the subject of debate in the legal domain and the economics of marriage and of the wedding ceremony figure in the discourse on development engaging with these and other strands is marrying in south asia, a volume which looks closely at bangladeshi, pakistani and south indian muslims, bhutanese ethnic groups, nepali widows, the sri lankan tamil diaspora, south asian gays and lesbians, middle class and urban, working class communities and many other groups with the globalising world as the backdrop, the essays trace the encounters with changing notions and practices of marriage the book examines processes that make a marriage, the implications of non-marriage or its end and the acknowledgement of multiple sexualities, as well as the contestations and conflicts, including in the law courts, that are part of the institution the integration of the larger economic and political contexts in understandings of personal relations around marriage is significant the diverse ethnographic accounts, demographic analyses and economic investigations provide a wider window to marriage than is usually available in a single volume this volume brings together scholars in sociology, anthropology, economics, demography, development studies, queer theory and gender studies, and historical research, from around the world marrying in south asia is a must-read for students of the social sciences and for all of us interested in the ideas around conjugality and the institution of marriage ![]() Free Download Kate Philip, "Markets on the Margins: Mineworkers, Job Creation and Enterprise Development" English | ISBN: 1847011764 | 2018 | 238 pages | PDF | 18 MB Examines more than a decade of enterprise development strategies in marginal economic contexts in South Africa's mining communities and shows how this might impact on development strategies. ![]() Free Download Carlos Diaz Ruiz, "Market-Oriented Disinformation Research " English | ISBN: 1032828544 | 2025 | 232 pages | EPUB | 6 MB Market-Oriented Disinformation Research explores the spread of false or misleading information online through the lens of marketing theory and consumer research. It examines how the business models of digital platforms and advertising technology firms (AdTech) generate digital markets that incentivize the circulation of harmful content for profit. Rather than viewing disinformation and misinformation as accidental byproducts, the book proposes that they thrive in the current markets designed for digital advertising and influencer marketing. ![]() Free Download Maggie Sunseri, "Marked by Masks and Secrets " English | ISBN: B0DSKZK5S2 | 2025 | 520 pages | AZW3 | 3 MB Evie ![]() Free Download Michelle Moran, "Maria: A Novel of Maria von Trapp" English | ISBN: 0593499484 | 2024 | 320 pages | AZW3 | 1269 KB NATIONAL BESTSELLER * Maria von Trapp. You know the name and the iconic songs, but do you know her real story?

Aside physiological suitability, the subjective quality of a product becomes more and more relevant for its perceived user value. Despite deep knowledge on subjective perception in other research disciplines exists, this knowledge is hard to access for product developers so far. The existing barriers between external resources and the development of user centered products hence need further break down. Hence, the paramount goal of this research is a usable and transparent adoption of interdisciplinary knowledge of subjective value perception into the engineering context. In this row, an instrument developed that allows the transfer of external knowledge into the product development process in order to give guidance for product design optimisations. It thus sensitises for the consideration of indvidiual subjective quality preferences and creates greater transparency about its origin, transmission and effects. ACADE (Approach for Computer Aided Design of Emotional impressions) therefore targets the theory of product-personality. It states that users tend to prefer those products that reflect their own attitudes and value orientations at its best. In order to fulfil these expectations with an appropriate product design, both user attitudes as well as a product's overall impression need to be instrumentarised. Therefore, models and instruments from the current state of the art are adopted into an easy to follow, understandable process chain. Lastly, functional relationships between product appearance and design parameters allow a specific product variation management. Therein, ACADE's transparent data architecture and mathematical solvers support the optimisation of subjective value criteria. Simple processes and the integration of result verification allow a quick, understandable and flexible application. Several different study examples from bionics, medical engineering or mobility demonstrate the versatility and usability of ACADE. It does not only allow the deliberate optimisation of product design for individual subjective preferences, but also supports an effective and efficient portfolio management and design strategy. The presented work can only make a small contribution to consider subjective quality aspects in the development of technical products. It thus raises many relevant questions and sensitises for its relevance in engineering design. In the future, it is important to go on further in this topic in order to create better products for users. ![]() Free Download Marco Gabbas, "Maoism with Italian Characteristics: China's Global Influence and the Italian Left, 1956-1976 " English | ISBN: 9819792363 | 2025 | 259 pages | PDF | 5 MB This book is, primarily, a historical study that investigates why Mao's thought took root in Italy, how it developed, and its emergence in opposition to the Italian Communist Party, with a focus on the years 1956-1976. The book also prompts reflection on how dissent has been perceived in Leftist parties more broadly, and how 'sub-cultures' can become prominent. The authors delve into the relations between Mao's China and the Italian institutional Left, mindful of the fact that not all the involved parties represented monolithic clusters of consent. The book confronts a watershed of reforms or revolution, in which the Italian Communist Party embraced a non-revolutionary and parliamentary policy, and where Italian radicals took Mao's slogans literally to argue that a revolution in Italy was not only possible, but necessary. Tracking the subsequent abandonment of Maoism in modern left-wing parties in Italy, which gradually became more distant from the working class, the authors juxtapose this to modern China, which opened up with Deng Xiaoping's reforms and Xi Jinping's search for rejuvenation. In presenting Italian Maoism―a largely forgotten topic and fascinating example of Western Maoism―to an English-reading audience, the authors contextualize these local historical events in a global modern perspective, linking them to the Cold War and horizontal issues, such as dissent, in a rich comparison of Italian and Chinese sources from party archives and collections. It is relevant to historians interested in the circulation of Chinese political ideas in the West, and China's historical trajectory from the Cold War to the present. ![]() Free Download Christina Boswell, "Manufacturing Political Trust: Targets and Performance Measurement in Public Policy" English | ISBN: 1108421202 | 2018 | 226 pages | PDF | 2 MB Measurement and targets have been widely criticised as distorting policy and engendering gaming - yet they continue to be widely used in government. This book offers an original new account explaining the persistent appeal of performance measurement. It argues that targets have been adopted to address a crisis of trust in politics, through creating more robust mechanisms of accountability and monitoring. The book shows that such tools rarely have their intended effect. Through an in-depth analysis of UK targets on immigration and asylum since 2000, it shows that far from shoring up trust, targets have engendered cynicism and distrust in government. Moreover, they have encouraged intrusive forms of monitoring and reform in public administration, with damaging consequences for trust between politicians and civil servants. Despite these problems, performance measurement has now become embedded in techniques of public management. It has also become normalised as a way of framing policy problems and responses. Thus despite their acknowledged problems, targets are likely to retain their allure as techniques of political communication and governance. ![]() Free Download F (Frederick) Humphreys, "Manual of Veterinary Homeopathy" English | ISBN: 1023587505 | 2025 | 312 pages | MOBI | 2 MB "Manual of Veterinary Homeopathy" by Frederick Humphreys offers a comprehensive guide to homeopathic treatments for a wide range of animal ailments.
