Free Download David Mckie, "What's in a Surname?: A Journey from Abercrombie to Zwicker"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 0099558947, 1847946941 | EPUB | pages: 304 | 1.7 mb
Surnames are much more than convenient identity tags; they are windows into our families' pasts. Some suggest ancestral trades (Butcher, Smith, Roper) or physical appearance (Long, Brown, Thynne). Some provide clues to where we come from (McDonald, Evans, Patel). And some-Rymer, Brocklebank, Stolbof-offer a hint of something just a little more exotic or esoteric. All are grist to the mill for David McKie who sets off on a journey around Britain to find out how such appellations have evolved and what they tell us about ourselves. En route he looks at the surname's tentative beginnings in medieval times, and the myriad routes by which particular names became established. He considers some curious byways: the rise and fall of the multi-barreled surname and the Victorian reinvention of "embarrassing" surnames among them. He considers whether fortune favors those whose surnames come at the beginning of the alphabet, and he celebrates the remarkable and the quirky, from the fearsome Ridley (the cry of which once struck terror in the hearts of Northumbrians) to the legend-encrusted Tichborne, whose most famous holders were destined to suffer centuries of misfortune and controversy. Elegiac and amusing by turns, he offers a wonderfully entertaining wander along the footpaths of the nation's history and culture, celebrating not just the Smiths and Joneses of these islands but the Chacepots and Swetinbeds, too.

Free Download Knud Jørgensen, "What is International Relations?"
English | ISBN: 1529210968 | 2021 | 192 pages | PDF | 11 MB
As International Relations enters its second century as an academic discipline, leading expert Knud Erik Jørgensen provides a provocative assessment of its past, present and future. In this book, Jørgensen traces International Relations scholarship from its formative interwar years, through to rapid growth in students and researchers in the wake of globalization. He examines the resultant widening of scholarship in the field, and the effects that this has had on the global discipline. The result is a concise and challenging appraisal of International Relations, one which both celebrates its value and maps possible future directions.

Free Download Mathias Albert, "What in the World?: Understanding Global Social Change "
English | ISBN: 1529213312 | 2021 | 316 pages | PDF | 21 MB
Analysing social change has too often been characterized by parochialism, either a Eurocentrism that projects European experience outwards or a disciplinary narrowness that ignores insights from other academic disciplines. This book moves beyond these limits to develop a global perspective on social change. The book provincializes Europe in order to analyse European modernity as the product of global developments and brings together renowned scholars from international relations, history and sociology in the search for common understandings. In so doing, it provides a range of promising theoretical approaches, analytical takes and substantive research areas that offer new vistas for understanding change on a global scale.

Free Download Dorothy Barresi, "What We Did While We Made More Guns "
English | ISBN: 0822965232 | 2018 | 104 pages | PDF | 1155 KB
The poems in What We Did While We Made More Guns investigate the place where economic failure meets a widening acculturation of violence-a kind of Great Acceleration of soul extinction set in this spectacularly uneasy moment in American history. Cutting, comic, sorrowful, at times terrified, at times resolute, the poems tilt along the high cliff's edge of identity anxiety and American moral uncertainty, where each of us plays our part in the business of dispossession or resistance. Building themselves out of jazzed-up verbal velocities and wounded (in)sincerity, the poems counsel resilience against all forms of battery, mortal, spiritual, financial. They are pattern-makers in the dark. They talk back to God. They take into themselves what cannot be taken back: the news that forty-six million Americans have "slipped" below the poverty line; that guns discharge monstrously banal virility; that a black woman pulled over for a routine traffic violation dies by strangulation in her jail cell; that we buy and sell the myth of the American Dream as though our lives depended on it.

Free Download Fiona Robards, "What Makes You Happy?: How small changes can lead to big improvements in your life"
English | 2015 | pages: 264 | ISBN: 1921966319 | EPUB | 0,8 mb
What do you want most in life? Most peoplewould answer: "I just want to be happy." Sounds simple, but what does happiness look like? And is the life you lead now bringing you closer to happiness?Many of us have adopted lifestyles that don't support happiness. We lead lives that are too rushed, too stressed and too focused on things that don't matter. And our obsession with economic development is destroying the natural environment. We need to rethink our way of life because our unhealthy lifestyles are making us physically and mentally unwell. They're making us unhappier, not happier.The solutions - doing things that support our wellbeing, finding opportunities to connect with others and supporting the environment we live in - are intrinsically linked. The good news is that many simple, positive, healthy choices and activities promote wellbeing.Fiona Robards is a psychologist - with four Masters degrees - but the things that make her happy are simple: a walk with a friend, a movie, travelling, watching waves rise and fall, kindness. In What Makes You Happy? she looks at ten areas of our life, ranging from finances to relationships, personal style to having fun, and through a series of practical exercises and searching questions guides us down the path to finding our own simple solutions to everyday happiness, so that we can stress less and live calmer, richer lives.

Free Download Hans Kung, "What I Believe"
English | ISBN: 1441103163 | 2010 | 224 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Hans Kung is one of the most celebrated theologians of the present day. His audience, which is strong within his own Roman Catholic Church, is equally solid among Christians of other denominations, among those outside the churches and indeed among those at the frontiers of organised religion.From the start, he has been a rebel, being Swiss and a lover of personal freedom. Many of his books such as Infallible and On Being a Christian have rocked the Papal boat.Now after publishing two magnificent and acclaimed volumes of memoirs, Kung has written a much shorter and more personal book to explain his own beliefs.If one sets aside all scientific knowledge and learning, all formal theological language and the skilful construction of theories, what remains as the core of faith?What do we need for our lives? What is indispensable to us? Kung writes of trust in life, joy in life and suffering in life and in so doing gives us a summa of his own faith - and life.
