Strategic Choice and International Relations
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lake, David A. / Powell, Robert / Powell, Robert, PUBLISHER: Princeton University Press, The strategic-choice approach has a long pedigree in international relations. In an area often rent by competing methodologies, editors David A. Lake and Robert Powell take the best of accepted and contested knowledge among many theories. With the contributors to this volume, they offer a unifying perspective, which begins with a simple insight: students of international relations want to explain the choices actors make--whether these actors be states, parties, ethnic groups, companies, leaders, or individuals. This synthesis offers three new benefits: first, the strategic interaction of actors is the unit of analysis, rather than particular states or policies; second, these interactions are now usefully organized into analytic schemes, on which conceptual experiments may be based; and third, a set of methodological "bets" is then made about the most productive ways to analyze the interactions. Together, these elements allow the pragmatic application of theories that may apply to a myriad of particular cases, such as individuals protesting environmental degradation, governments seeking to control nuclear weapons, or the United Nations attempting to mobilize member states for international peacekeeping. Besides the editors, the six contributors to this book, all distinguished scholars of international relations, are Jeffry A. Frieden, James D. Morrow, Ronald Rogowski, Peter Gourevitch, Miles Kahler, and Arthur A. Stein. Their work is an invaluable introduction for scholars and students of international relations, economists, and government decision-makers. Acquista Ora
Creating the American State: The Moral Reformers and the
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stillman, Richard Joseph, II, PUBLISHER: University of Alabama Press, Whether renewing a driver's license, traveling on an airplane, or just watching in fascination as a robot probes Mars, we all participate in the everyday workings of the modern administrative state. As Stillman demonstrates in this study, however, we have not, until now, fully investigated or appreciated this administrative state's origins or its evolution into the entity that so affects our lives today. Stillman reveals that this modern enterprise emerged from a complex foundation of ideas and ideals rather than as a result of a simple, rational plan or cataclysmic event, as previously contended. In fact, he finds that the basis for our current administrative state lies in the lives of the seven individuals who, during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, invented its various elements. Stillman also finds that although they lived at different times, these seven founders -- George William Curtis, Charles Francis Adams, Jr., Emory Upton, Jane Addams, Frederick W. Taylor, Richard Childs, and Louis Brownlow -- had much in common: all were products of intensely Protestant, small-town America, and all were motivated by strong moral idealism. Indeed, Stillman finds that state making in the United States has been a continuation of the Protestant goal to "protest and purify". Some names are more recognizable than others, but all, through remarkable moral fervor and exceptional leadership skills, invented the administrative practices and procedures so familiar today.
On Writing Short Stories
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bailey, Tom, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, On Writing Short Stories offers a fascinating introduction to writing fiction and the short story by bringing together 9 original essays by professional writers and 30 exemplars of short fiction. The first part features original essays by well-known authors such as Francine Prose, Joyce Carol Oates, and Andre Dubus that take the student through the process of writing These essays focus on the characteristics and craft of the short story and its writer, and take the student from the workshopping process all the way through the experience of working with agents and publishers. The second part of the text is an anthology of stories-many referred to in the essays-that gives readers dynamic examples of technique brought to life. In this second edition, Bailey brings the text up-to-date with new and revised essays and a freshened anthology that retains many of the classics, but adds in new styles and diverse voices-from short short fiction to the postcolonial writing of non-Western authors. In doing so, Bailey gives readers a broader scope of the short fiction landscape. The first part of the text now features Bailey's updated essay on the elements of fiction, which incorporates many of the nw stories in the anthology. There are also two new essays that expand on the workshopping process: "Whose Story Is It? The Anonymous Workshop" by Antonya Nelson and "After the Workshop: Transitional Drafts" by Robert Nelson. C. Michael Curtis also updates his essay on "Publishers and Publishing" from the first edition, bringing in the latest innovations in electronic and online publishing.
The Downfall and Rise of Steven Leroy Zienner
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dampier, Jerry, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, Steven Leroy Zienner is a hard-working, hard-driving, hard-headed, economic materialist. Money, because of the influence it has over people and because of the things it buys, is the highest value he places on life. Unrestrained ambition in the pursuit of accumulating large profits, Mr. Zienner believes, lies at the heart of success and, at the same time, he believes wealth is the key to complete happiness. As a result of his genius in the affairs of business, (that, and the willingness to exploit his employees to maximum effect) Mr. Zienner became a multimillionaire before his 30th birthday. The story takes place in the 195O''s in Cleveland, Ohio; Vicksburg, Mississippi; and Paris, France. At this point, it should be noted that this story, The Downfall and Rise of Steven Leroy Zienner, is not merely a story about a man''s company, or the products that he sells, or even his rise from humble beginnings to wealth and privilege. It is a story about a choice a person ultimately makes between personal growth or self destruction when faced with personal tragedies and financial ruin. It is about the stubbornness as well as the willingness to see different points-of-view; it is about the desire to live in accordance with certain values and principles, or the lack thereof; it is also about the importance of family and friends; and the discovery, examination, and triumph over some of the most unattractive and malevolent elements within human nature. All-in-all, it''s about a man''s downfall; but more importantly, his struggle to rise in the pursuit of the ethics of Happiness.

Einstein's Jewish Science: Physics at the Intersection of
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gimbel, Steven, PUBLISHER: Johns Hopkins University Press, Is relativity Jewish? The Nazis denigrated Albert Einstein's revolutionary theory by calling it "Jewish science," a charge typical of the ideological excesses of Hitler and his followers. Philosopher of science Steven Gimbel explores the many meanings of this provocative phrase and considers whether there is any sense in which Einstein's theory of relativity is Jewish. Arguing that we must take seriously the possibility that the Nazis were in some sense correct, Gimbel examines Einstein and his work to explore how beliefs, background, and environment may--or may not--influence the work of the scientist. You cannot understand Einstein's science, Gimbel declares, without knowing the history, religion, and philosophy that influenced it. No one, especially Einstein himself, denies Einstein's Jewish heritage, but many are uncomfortable saying that he was a Jew while he was at his desk working. To understand what "Jewish" means for Einstein's work, Gimbel first explores the many definitions of "Jewish" and asks whether there are elements of Talmudic thinking apparent in Einstein's theory of relativity. He applies this line of inquiry to other scientists, including Isaac Newton, Ren? Descartes, Sigmund Freud, and ?mile Durkheim, to consider whether and how their specific religious beliefs or backgrounds manifested in their scientific endeavors. "Einstein's Jewish Science" intertwines science, history, philosophy, theology, and politics in fresh and fascinating ways to solve the multifaceted riddle of what religion means--and what it means to science. There are some senses, Gimbel claims, in which Jews can find a special connection to "E = mc2," and this claim leads to the engaging, spirited debate at the heart of this book. Acquista Ora

Tutto ruota intorno a sei differenti "pezzi" (appunto chiamati elementi) ognuno con le proprie caratteristiche intrinseche e con data funzione di utilizzo. 2 moduli amplificatore EA 600 da 600 watt, 4 diffusori delle medio-alte E SubWooferpassiva E110 sub. 2 Ep1 Mounting Pole Qualsiasi elemento dotato di amplificatore in classe D è in grado di pilotare uno o più dei due diffusori per le frequenze medio alte o per le basse nel numero e nella configurazione indicata dal produttore. Quello che è ancora più interessante è che tutti questi elementi sono assemblabili tra loro tramite degli incastri standard e comuni a tutti i pezzi. Per di più gli incastri sono in grado di provvedere, senza l'ausilio di altri cavi e connessioni anche, a fornire corrente elettrica e segnale agli elementi che la necessitano. Questo sistema brevettato si chiama E-connect e riduce sensibilmente il tempo di montaggio semplificando ai minimi termini l'assemblaggio e garantendo il montaggio ottimale del sistema. In effetti, gli agganci obbligati tra i pezzi eliminano qualsiasi errore di montaggio e di allineamento, fornendo sempre e comunque un sistema pronto e giustamente tarato dal punto di vista meccanico e sonoro. In definitiva è possibile assemblare un sistema mono composto da un amplificatore e un solo top fino ad un setup stereo ben più potente composto da otto top e otto sub ( Watt). Consiglio di guardare i prezzi e le recensioni on-line di tutti questi componenti cosi' da rendersi di cosa si sta' acquistando!!! VERO AFFARE!!!!!!! NON TRATTABILI
Voodoo Histories: The Role of the Conspiracy Theory in
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Aaronovitch, David, PUBLISHER: Riverhead Books, An absorbing, probing look at the conspiracy theories that operate on the sidelines of history and the reasons they continue to play such a seditious role, from an award-winning journalist. Our age is obsessed by the idea of conspiracy. We see it everywhere- from Pearl Harbor to 9/11, from the assassination of Kennedy to the death of Diana. In this age of terrorism we live in, the role of conspiracy is a serious one, one that can fuel radical or fringe elements to violence. For David Aaronovitch, there came a time when he started to see a pattern among these inflammatory theories. these theories used similarly murky methods with which to insinu?ate their claims: they linked themselves to the supposed conspiracies of the past (it happened then so it can happen now); they carefully manipulated their evidence to hide its holes; they relied on the authority of dubious aca?demic sources. Most important, they elevated their believers to membership of an elite- a group of people able to see beyond lies to a higher reality. But why believe something that entails stretching the bounds of probabil?ity so far? Surely it is more likely that men did actually land on the moon in than that thousands of people were enlisted to fabricate an elaborate hoax. In this entertaining and enlightening book -aimed at providing ammunition for those who have found themselves at the wrong end of a conversation about moon landings or the twin towers-Aaronovitch carefully probes and explodes a dozen of the major conspiracy theories. In doing so, he examines why people believe them, and makes an argument for a true skepticism: one based on a thorough knowledge of history and a strong dose of common sense.
