National Research Council, and Resources Commission on Geosciences, Environment, Ocean Studies Board, "Bridging Boundaries Through Regional Marine Research" English | 2000 | pages: 128 | ISBN: 0309068320 | EPUB | 0,8 mb As appreciation of the interdisciplinary and multidimensional character of environmental issues has increased, there have been attempts to address regional needs more directly. One of these, the Regional Marine Research Program (RMRP), was established by Congress in 1990 to provide a mechanism to fund coastal marine research based on regionally-defined priorities. The RMRP legislation established a system of nine regional marine research boards around the United States. Each board was responsible for planning marine research to address issues of water quality and ecosystem health on a regional scale. Although all nine regions received funding for planning activities and development of a research plan, only the Gulf of Maine RMRP received funding for program implementation. The completion of the Gulf of Maine program, in 1997, presents an opportunity to evaluate whether the process for planning and managing the Gulf of Maine research was adequate, whether the research fulfilled the goals of the program, and whether this experience should serve as a model for similar regional programs elsewhere.  Patrick Brantlinger, "Bread and Circuses: Theories of Mass Culture As Social Decay" English | ISBN: 0801493382 | 2016 | 312 pages | AZW3 | 528 KB Lively and well written, Bread and Circuses analyzes theories that have treated mass culture as either a symptom or a cause of social decadence. Discussing many of the most influential and representative theories of mass culture, it ranges widely from Greek and Roman origins, through Marx, Nietzsche, Freud, Ortega y Gasset, T. S. Eliot, and the theorists of the Frankfurt Institute, down to Marshall McLuhan and Daniel Bell, Brantlinger considers the many versions of negative classicism and shows how the belief in the historical inevitability of social decay?a belief today perpetuated by the mass media themselves?has become the dominant view of mass culture in our time. While not defending mass culture in its present form, Brantlinger argues that the view of culture implicit in negative classicism obscures the question of how the media can best be used to help achieve freedom and enlightenment on a truly democratic basis.  Brazilian Entrepreneurship: New Perspectives and Ideologies English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031093917 | 177 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 11 MB Brazil is a large country in terms of geographic land mass and population size. It's position in Latin America means that it contributes to much of the economic development within this area.

This book aims to change this by focusing on Brazil in terms of entrepreneurial endeavours and pursuits. This includes focusing on the rural and urban areas in terms of entrepreneurial practices.

Thereby taking a holistic perspective in terms of including both financial and non-financial forms of entrepreneurship. Interesting topics such as sustainable and environmental forms of entrepreneurship will be examined from a Brazilian perspective together with technological forms of entrepreneurship evident in the growth of smart cities within the region. This book will be amongst the first to holistically examine the contemporary hardships and successes of entrepreneurship in Brazil.  Brazilian Authoritarianism: Past and Present by Lilia M. Schwarcz, translated by Eric M. B. Becker English | September 13, 2022 | ISBN: 0691210918 | True EPUB/PDF | 328 pages | 7.8/22.2 MB How Brazil's long history of racism and authoritarian politics has led to the country's present crises and epidemic of violence  Pete Hill, "Brazil: Cruising Guide Part 2: North Coast Paraiba to Maranhao States" English | 2014 | ASIN: B00JNWFOPC | EPUB | pages: 142 | 7.5 mb Part 2 of cruising guide to the coast of Brazil.  Stefanov, "Boundaries and Borders in the Post-Yugoslav Space: A European Experience" English | ISBN: 3110712326 | 2021 | 275 pages | EPUB | 4 MB The purpose of this book is to demystify the causes of wealth and poverty like never before done. It is the seminal comprehensive presentation of the CDR index. The CDR index is a mathematical model that shows how capitalism (C), democracy (D) and rule of law (R) jointly with natural resources and geography explain almost all economic growth. As it turns out, capitalism, democracy, and rule of law are intangible policy variables that are at the disposal of all countries and explain almost all gross domestic production of tangible products and services. There is also a minor contribution from non-policy variables such as natural resources and geography. These are all that countries require at their disposal and choice in order to enjoy their desired standard of living. The CDR economic growth model is a new paradigm.  Ron McCallum, "Born at the Right Time: A memoir" English | 2019 | pages: 444 | ISBN: 0369355113 | EPUB | 6,1 mb Ron McCallum has been blind from birth. When he was a child, many blind people spent their lives making baskets in sheltered workshops, but Ron's mother had other ideas for her son. She insisted on treating him as normally as possible.  Robert E. Drennan, Heywood Hale Broun, "Bon Mots, Wisecracks, and Gags: The Wit of Robert Benchley, Dorothy Parker, and the Algonquin Round Table" English | 2012 | ISBN: 1616087137 | EPUB | pages: 176 | 1.3 mb "Stop looking at the world through rose-colored bifocals." "His mind is so open, the wind whistles through it." "You can't teach an old dogma new tricks." Ever wonder where these sayings came from? For decades, the dining room of New York's legendary Algonquin Hotel was a hub of letters and humor. Cocktails were swilled as writers, humorists, actors, and critics poked fun at culture, the arts, and one another. In this lively tribute, today's readers will come to understand why Robert Benchley, George S. Kaufman, and Dorothy Parker represent the epitome of quips and comebacks-wit that still packs a punch decades later.  Body Part Terms in Conceptualization and Language Usage By Iwona Kraska-Szlenk (editor) 2020 | 319 Pages | ISBN: 9027204802 | PDF | 4 MB The volume focuses on body part terms as the vehicle of embodied cognition and conceptualization. It explores the relationship between universal embodiment, language-specific cultural models and linguistic usage practices. The chapters of the volume add to the previous research in a novel way. The presentation of original data from previously undescribed languages spoken by small communities in Africa and South America allows to discover unknown aspects of embodiment and to propose new interpretations. Well-known languages are analyzed from a new perspective relying on the benefits of linguistic corpora. Contrastive and theoretically oriented studies help to pinpoint similarities and differences among languages, as well as tendencies in conceptualization patterns and semantic development of the lexis of body part terms. The volume contributes to the field of linguistics, but also to cognitive science, anthropology and cultural studies.
