Free Download Jeff Goodell, "The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet" English | ISBN: 0316497576 | 2023 | EPUB | 400 pages | 1 MB Most Anticipated by The New York Times and The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times * A Next Big Idea Book Club Selection * New York Times bestselling journalist's "masterful, bracing" (David Wallace-Wells) investigation exposes "through stellar reporting, artful storytelling and fascinating scientific explanations" (Naomi Klein) an explosive new understanding of heat and the impact that rising temperatures will have on our lives and on our planet. "Entertaining and thoroughly researched," (Al Gore), it will completely change the way you see the world, and despite its urgent themes, is injected with "eternal optimism" (Michael Mann) on how to combat one of the most important issues of our time.  Free Download Kristal Brent Zook, "The Girl in the Yellow Poncho: A Memoir" English | ISBN: 1478017198 | 2023 | 224 pages | PDF | 2 MB At five years old, Kristal Brent Zook sat on the steps of a Venice Beach, California, motel trying to make sense of her white father's abandonment, which left her feeling unworthy of a man's love and of white protection. Raised by her working-class African American mother and grandmother, Zook was taught not to count on anyone, especially men. Men leave. Men disappoint. In adulthood she became a feminist, activist, and "race woman" journalist in New York City. Despite her professional success, something was missing. Coming to terms with her identity was a constant challenge.  Free Download Nikolaj Lübecker, "The Feel-Bad Film " English | ISBN: 0748697977 | 2015 | 200 pages | PDF | 2 MB In recent years some of the best-known European and American art film directors have made films that place the spectator in a position of intense discomfort: Feel-Bad Films. These films systematically manipulate the spectator: sometimes by withholding information from her, sometimes by shocking her, and sometimes by seducing her in order to further disturb her. As a result, they have been criticized for being amoral, nihilistic, politically irresponsible and anti-humanistic.  Free Download Andrew Teverson, "The Fairy Tale World (Routledge Worlds)" English | ISBN: 1138217573, 1032475706 | 2019 | EPUB | 204 pages | 13 MB The Fairy Tale World is a definitive volume on this ever-evolving field. The book draws on recent critical attention, contesting romantic ideas about timeless tales of good and evil, and arguing that fairy tales are culturally astute narratives that reflect the historical and material circumstances of the societies in which they are produced. The Fairy Tale World takes a uniquely global perspective and broadens the international, cultural, and critical scope of fairy-tale studies. Throughout the five parts, the volume challenges the previously Eurocentric focus of fairy-tale studies, with contributors looking at:  Free Download Keyvan Manafi, "The Eye of the Cinematograph: Lévinas and Realisms of the Body" English | ISBN: 1399507249 | 2023 | 256 pages | PDF | 6 MB The Eye of the Cinematograph investigates the ethical and aesthetic implications of the automatic formation of the body's image by the camera. Drawing on Emmanuel Levinas' thought, Manafi asks what happens when the other makes their body available to the gaze of the camera to be automatically recorded, and this giving of the body is preserved within the image, juxtaposed with other images to allude to a story that might otherwise remain untold.  Free Download The Empire of Depression: A New History By Jonathan Sadowsky 2020 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 1509531661 | EPUB | 2 MB Depression has colonized the world. Today, more than 300 million of us have been diagnosed as depressed. But 150 years ago, "depression" referred to a mood, not a sickness. Does that mean people weren't sick before, only sad? Of course not. Mental illness is a complex thing, part biological, part social, its definition dependent on time and place. But in the mid-twentieth century, even as European empires were crumbling, new Western clinical models and treatments for mental health spread across the world. In so doing, "depression" began to displace older ideas like "melancholia," the Japanese "utsushō," or the Punjabi "sinking heart" syndrome. Award-winning historian Jonathan Sadowsky tells this global story, chronicling the path-breaking work of psychiatrists and pharmacists, and the intimate sufferings of patients. Revealing the continuity of human distress across time and place, he shows us how different cultures have experienced intense mental anguish, and how they have tried to alleviate it. He reaches an unflinching conclusion: the devastating effects of depression are real. A number of treatments do reduce suffering, but a permanent cure remains elusive. Throughout the history of depression, there have been overzealous promoters of particular approaches, but history shows us that there is no single way to get better that works for everyone. Like successful psychotherapy, history can liberate us from the negative patterns of the past.  Free Download The Emerging Autonomous Legal Order of the Eurasian Economic Union English | 2023 | ISBN: 1316514064 | 283 Pages | PDF | 2 MB In this original study of the Eurasian Economic Union, Maksim Karliuk assesses the law and dynamics of functioning of this international organization. Examining the Eurasian Economic Union as an attempt to encourage post-Soviet integration, this book addresses the problematic legal issues of the integration process. Using the legal order autonomy framework, Karliuk carefully selects and organizes the topics included to offer readers a clear, systematic account of the most significant concerns. As well as considering theoretical issues, Karliuk engages with practical solutions to the problems identified. Besides merely outlining the present, this book develops a framework to address gaps and failures in current integration efforts and encourages further research into the complexities of Eurasian integration in the future.  Free Download The Deepest Map: The Amazing Global Race to Chart the World's Oceans by Laura Trethewey English | July 11th, 2023 | ISBN: 0063099950 | 304 pages | True EPUB | 0.83 MB The dramatic and action-packed story of the last mysterious place on earth-the world's seafloor-and the deep-sea divers, ocean mappers, marine biologists, entrepreneurs, and adventurers involved in the historic push to chart it, as well as the opportunities, challenges, and perils this exploration holds now and for the future.  Free Download James Clarke, "The Cinema of James Cameron: Bodies in Heroic Motion (Directors' Cuts)" English | ISBN: 0231169760, 0231169779 | 2014 | EPUB | 224 pages | 2 MB This timely volume explores the massively popular cinema of writer-director James Cameron. It couches Cameron's films within the evolving generic traditions of science fiction, melodrama, and the cinema of spectacle. The book also considers Cameron's engagement with the aesthetic of visual effects and the 'now' technology of performance-capture which is arguably moving a certain kind of event-movie cinema from photography to something more akin to painting. This book is explicit in presenting Cameron as an authentic auteur, and each chapter is dedicated to a single film in his body of work, from The Terminator to Avatar. Space is also given to discussion of Strange Days as well as his short films and documentary works.  Free Download Craig Smith, "The Car Hacker's Handbook: A Guide for the Penetration Tester" English | ISBN: 1593277032 | 2016 | 304 pages | AZW3 | 36 MB Modern cars are more computerized than ever. Infotainment and navigation systems, Wi-Fi, automatic software updates, and other innovations aim to make driving more convenient. But vehicle technologies haven't kept pace with today's more hostile security environment, leaving millions vulnerable to attack. |
