My Word Is My Bond: The Autobiography
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Moore, Roger, PUBLISHER: Michael O'Mara Books, The quintessential suave hero, Roger Moore has enjoyed a successful career that has spanned seven decades, from early television through the golden age of Hollywood and on to international superstardom. Dashing, handsome, and every inch the archetypal English gentleman, he is most widely known for making seven blockbuster films as arguably the most debonair 007 of all time. He has worked with some of the world's most legendary stars, including such luminaries as Noel Coward, Sean Connery, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Lana Turner, Gregory Peck, Cary Grant, Richard Harris, and Michael Caine. For the first time, Roger shares his recollections of playing some of the world's most famous roles as well as myriad stories from his personal life, including events from his childhood in London and his experiences during World War II. Filled with anecdotes from his encounters with celebrities of every variety and his memories from the heydays of Hollywood, this is a frank, funny, and disarmingly charming story of a life lived among the stars.
Tell Me What You Eat and I'll Tell You If You Are Jewish
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kravva, Vasiliki, PUBLISHER: VDM Verlag, The book examines the role of food and eating in the maintainance and negotiation of a community's boundaries. The author draws material from from her fieldwork among the Jews in the city of Thessaloniki in Northern Greece. The past of this community is characterised by many dramatic changes that resulted in its gradual marginalisation. The author attempts to examine this dialectic relationship beteween the past and the present through examining food and food narratives. Food is also seen as playing a crucial role in giving meaning to notions of 'being' and 'feeling' Jewish in a non-Jewish city. The centrality of food and eating in solidifying the feeling of 'belonging' to the community is also discussed. The book offers insights to the topics of food, memory and in the course of the analysis notions such as 'traditionality' and 'authenticity' are analysed and assessed. What is attempted is to co-examine issues drawn from the anthropology of food and memory and the study of ethnic and religious groups. As it is argued food creates real or imagined distincions between Self and Other and sustains images of cultural continuity.
The Mexican American Experience: An Encyclopedia
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Meier, Matt S. / Gutierrez, Margo, PUBLISHER: Greenwood, Mexican Americans are rapidly becoming the largest minority in the United States, playing a vital role in the culture of the American Southwest and beyond. This A-to-Z guide offers comprehensive coverage of the Mexican American experience, including: Arts Religion Popular culture Science Technology Business Government And more Entries range from figures such as Corky Gonzales, Joan Baez, and Nancy Lopez to general entries on bilingual education, assimilation, border culture, and southwestern agriculture. Court cases, politics, and events such as the Delano Grape Strike all receive full coverage, while the definitions and significance of terms such as coyote and Tejano are provided in shorter entries. Taking a historical approach, this book's topics date back to the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, a radical turning point for Mexican Americans, as they lost their lands and found themselves thrust into an alien social and legal system. The entries trace Mexican Americans' experience as a small, conquered minority, their growing influence in the 20th century, and the essential roles their culture plays in the borderlands, or the American Southwest, in the 21st century.
Participatory Research in Conservation and Rural
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fortmann, Louise, PUBLISHER: Wiley-Blackwell, "Participatory Research in Conservation and Rural Livelihoods": "Doing Science Together" starts from the understanding that all people create knowledge and that the creation of sustainable livelihoods and of conditions that protect and sustain rural ecosystems are interrelated. Here local experts and professional researchers write independently about the participatory research processes through which they created new knowledge together. They demonstrate that interdependent science can produce more accurate and locally appropriate data, while frankly addressing persisting issues such as unequal power, whose knowledge and what ways of knowing count, whose voice can be heard or appear in print, and other dilemmas of this practice. Conservation scientists and practitioners will both benefit from reading this book. First book to examine community participatory research techniques that focuses on conservation aims Unique book in that it is written from the perspective of participating community volunteers and researching scientists Part of the prestigious Conservation Science and Practice series published in association with the Zoological Society of London ""Participatory Research in Conservation and Rural Livelihoods" is brilliant, passionate, and inspiring..."

Late Transition Metal Polymerization Catalysis
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rieger, Bernd / Baugh, Lisa / Kacker, Smita, PUBLISHER: Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, Even some fifty years after their discovery, transition metals have lost none of their fascination. The use of complex compounds in these elements has not only revolutionized synthesis in the laboratory, but has also led to them playing an important role in many industrial applications. Each year, millions of tons of plastics are produced around the world and, by varying the ligands in the catalytically active compounds, the properties of the resulting polymers can even be tailored for use. For this purpose, sandwich compounds from early transition metals have been common until now, but interest has focused increasingly on the late transition metals. In this book, the world's leading authors from research and industry discuss the latest developments in research into palladium, zinc, iron and nickel catalysis. In so doing, they systematically introduce readers to the basic principles and illustrate how these innovative catalysts can be effectively used for polymerizations. The result is an ideal reference work, invaluable for every organic chemist working in catalysis or polymer research. Acquista Ora
Blonde Roots
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Evaristo, Bernardine, PUBLISHER: Riverhead Books, A provocative novel that upends the history of the transatlantic slave trade, reversing and reexamining notions of savagery and civilization, as it follows a young womanas journey to freedom. Award-winning writer Bernardine Evaristoas novel "Blonde Roots" asks: What if the history of the transatlantic slave trade had been reversed and Africans had enslaved Europeans? How would that have changed the ways that people justified their inhuman behavior? And how would it inform our cultural attitudes and the insidious racism that still lingersaand sometimes festersatoday? We see this tragicomic world turned upside down through the eyes of Doris, an Englishwoman who is kidnapped one day while playing hide-and-seek with her sisters in the fields near their home. She is subsequently enslaved and taken to the New World, as well as to the imperial center of Great Ambossa. She movingly recounts experiences of tremendous hardship and dreams of the people sheas left behind, all while journeying toward an escape into freedom. A poignant and dramatic story grounded in provocative ideas, "Blonde Roots" is a genuinely original, profoundly imaginative novel.

Playing God
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bristow, Allen P., PUBLISHER: Virtualbookworm.com Publishing, The murder and cremation of a young homesteader befuddles Sheriff Jeff Scott and complicates La Roca County politics in the election year of . Each county official involved in the investigation develops a different theory about the crime and the pre-election publicity it may provide. A love triangle, rustlers, land fraud and suicide are among the suggested solutions to the crime. The case is further compromised by the political goals of the investigating officials. Tempers become short between the district attorney and the undersheriff, as their theories about the murder clash and the prime suspect commits suicide in his jail cell. Sheriff Scott's bid for re-election is cast into doubt as a variety of incidents reflect on his judgment and solving the crime becomes vital to his political future. The truth about the murder eludes the sheriff until he finds that nothing about the case is what it first seemed. None of the solutions put forth by the others are correct and revelation of the truth would be extremely embarrassing for them and distressing for the community. It remains for the sheriff to "play God" in the interest of justice and to preserve tranquility among those he serves.

China's Rise - Threat or Opportunity?
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Yee, Herbert S., PUBLISHER: Routledge, The phenomenal growth of Chinese economic and military power in the first decade of the 21st century has drawn world-wide attention. Perceptions of China's rise have shifted from seeing China as a threat to a more mixed view, where China is seen as playing a key role in economic recovery, taking an increasingly responsible role in world affairs, and contributing significantly to scientific and technological advances. This book argues that China will only become a truly global power when its rising power status is accepted, or at least tolerated, by other major powers and Chinaa (TM)s neighbours. Filling a major gap in the existing literature, it presents a comprehensive overview of how China's rise is perceived in a wide range of countries and regions a " these include China's neighbours, other world powers, the parts of China not part of mainland China - Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau - and regions of the world where China is having an unexpected impact, such as the Middle East. It also examines changing perceptions of China in the western media. Overall, the book demonstrates that whilst many countries and regions are much more positive about China's rise than they were before, considerable nervousness and concern persists.

Birds Without Wings
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: de Bernieres, Louis, PUBLISHER: Vintage Books Canada, Birds Without Wings" "traces the fortunes of one small community in southwest Turkey (Anatolia) in the early part of the last century -- a quirky community in which Christian and Muslim lives and traditions have co-existed peacefully over the centuries and where friendship, even love, has transcended religious differences. But with the disintegration of the Ottoman Empire and the onset of the Great War, the sweep of history has a cataclysmic effect on this peaceful place: The great love of Philothei, a Christian girl of legendary beauty, and Ibrahim, a Muslim shepherd who courts her from near infancy, culminates in tragedy and madness; Two inseparable childhood friends who grow up playing in the hills above the town suddenly find themselves on opposite sides of the bloody struggle; and Rustem Bey, a wealthy landlord, who has an enchanting mistress who is not what she seems. Far away from these small lives, a man of destiny who will come to be known as Mustafa Kemal Ataturk is emerging to create a country from the ruins of an empire. Victory at Gallipoli fails to save the Ottomans from ultimate defeat and, as a new conflict arises, Muslims and Christians struggle to survive, let alone understand, their part in the great tragedy that will reshape the whole region forever.

Do the Right Thing: Studies in Limited Rationality
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Russell, Stuart J. / Wefald, Eric H., PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), Like Mooki, the hero of Spike Lee's film "Do the Right Thing," artificially intelligent systems have a hard time knowing what to do in all circumstances. Classical theories of perfect rationality prescribe the "right thing" for any occasion, but no finite agent can compute their prescriptions fast enough. In "Do the Right Thing, " the authors argue that a new theoretical foundation for artificial intelligence can be constructed in which rationality is a property of "programs" within a finite architecture, and their behavior over time in the task environment, rather than a property of individual decisions. "Do the Right Thing" suggests that the rich structure that seems to be exhibited by humans, and ought to be exhibited by AI systems, is a necessary result of the pressure for optimal behavior operating within a system of strictly limited resources. It provides an outline for the design of new intelligent systems and describes theoretical and practical tools for bringing about intelligent behavior in finite machines. The tools are applied to game planning and real-time problem solving, with surprising results. Contents: Limited Rationality. Execution Architectures for Decision Procedures. Metareasoning Architecture. Rational Metareasoning. Application to Game Playing. Application to Problem Solving Search. Learning the Value of Computation. Toward Limited Rational Agents.
