The Spiral Road: Change in a Chinese Village Through the
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Shu-Min, Huang / Shu-Min Huang / Huang, Shu-Min, PUBLISHER: Westview Press, The leading Party cadre of Lin Village in Southeast China describes in this book forty years of turbulent events that affected individuals and families in the village: the downfall of the landlords during the Land Reform, the rise of poor peasants to political power, the political fanaticism of the Great Leap Forward and the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, and recent efforts to restore rational, pragmatic policies in China's countryside.The magnitude of change in Lin Village since has been considerable. Most villagers have benefited from tangible improvements in agriculture, education, and medicine, and they have developed a sense of political participation and integration into the national political arena. Significantly, while these dynamic changes have been taking place, the observance of cultural tradition has persisted. Attempts made by the government to change "feudalistic" beliefs and practices have yet to make any lasting impression on village life.More than an account of one village, this book documents for readers the cataclysmic changes of China's entire post-liberation era, detailing their effects in a personalized style. An American anthropologist of Chinese descent, Huang Shu-min employs participant-observation and personal interviews to shape this unique view of rural China today and to delineate some of the misconceptions held by Western academics.

Wildfire!
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hill, Elizabeth Starr / Shepperson, Rob, PUBLISHER: Farrar Straus Giroux, A rivalry, a rescue Big-mouth Elliott, who has recently arrived from a city up north, considers Ben a "backwoods boy" and looks down his nose at folks in their rural Florida town. To make matters worse, Elliott is the one who gets the dog that Ben's neighbor puts up for adoption -- the one Ben had his heart set on. In spite of being jealous and resentful, Ben can't stop himself from trying to win Elliott's approval, and he does something very stupid, very dangerous, on a bone-dry Fourth of July evening, when fireworks have been banned because of the fire risk. Illustrated with vivid wash-and-line drawings, this dramatic small-town story builds to a gripping conclusion as a boy races against time to make up for his own big mistake.

Sacred Hunger
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Unsworth, Barry, PUBLISHER: Penguin Books Ltd, Sacred Hunger is a stunning and engrossing exploration of power, domination, and greed. Filled with the "sacred hunger" to expand its empire and its profits, England entered full into the slave trade and spread the trade throughout its colonies. In this Booker Prize-winning work, Barry Unsworth follows the failing fortunes of William Kemp, a merchant pinning his last chance to a slave ship; his son who needs a fortune because he is in love with an upper-class woman; and his nephew who sails on the ship as its doctor because he has lost all he has loved. The voyage meets its demise when disease spreads among the slaves and the captain's drastic response provokes a mutiny. Joining together, the sailors and the slaves set up a secret, utopian society in the wilderness of Florida, only to await the vengeance of the single-minded, young Kemp.
Callsign: Spectre
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Noecker, Jeff, PUBLISHER: iUniverse.com, "Callsign: Spectre" is the true story of a young man from a small town in Pennsylvania who grows up and enlists in the United States Air Force at nineteen. Nearly forty years after the fact, Jeff Noecker recounts his combat flight experiences from the Vietnam War flying in an AC-130 Spectre gunship. The story follows him from his initial air force training to being accepted into an unusual Special Operations unit. What sets this story apart from the others that have been written about Vietnam is the Spectre gunship that Noecker flew in on his missions. While the US Air Force was flying hundreds of F-4s, F-105s, B-52s, OV-10s, O-2s, A-7s in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, there were only fourteen AC-130A Spectre gunships in theater and only one squadron that flew them-Noecker's squadron. There were even fewer than fourteen when the program began in ; the first few flew out of a base in Vietnam. The stories contained here resemble a diary, presenting both personal anecdotes of Noecker's and of stories he heard over the course of his time in service. Some of these may seem a bit farfetched, but Noecker sticks to the facts as much as possible. Unbelievable as some of the stories sound, his tales of his time in the air are unmistakably true.
Messiah! a New Look at the Composer, the Music and the
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Woychuk, N. A., PUBLISHER: Scripture Memory Fellowship Intl, Over a hundred years ago, editor "Frederick Crowest wrote, "Handel's masterpiece has probably done more to convince mankind that there is a God above us all than all the theological works ever written." "Dr. Alfred Smith said, ""Dr. Woychuk has done much to shed light on the inaccuracies and omissions in many biographies and for this he is to be highly commended." "Merrill Dunlop, the great musician, speaks of the "Messiah" book with great joy. He has read it through three times. "Mrs. Clay Johnson, Florida, speaks of it as "the Spirit inspired book." "The Church Music Report of January said in part, "This is a delightful book that is sure to give the reader new insight into the man and his music." And "Dr. George W. Linhart, Pennsylvania, simply calls it "a monumental work."
Looking for a Hero: Staff Sergeant Joe Ronnie Hooper and the
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Maslowski, Peter / Winslow, Don, PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, Widely acclaimed as the Vietnam War's most highly decorated soldier, Joe Ronnie Hooper in many ways serves as a symbol for that conflict. His troubled, tempestuous life paralleled the upheavals in American society during the s and s, and his desperate quest to prove his manhood was uncomfortably akin to the macho image projected by three successive presidents in their "tough" policy in Southeast Asia. "Looking for a Hero" extracts the real Joe Hooper from the welter of lies and myths that swirl around his story; in doing so, the book uncovers not only the complicated truth about an American hero but also the story of how Hooper's war was lost in Vietnam, not at home. Extensive interviews with friends, fellow soldiers, and family members reveal Hooper as a complex, gifted, and disturbed man. They also expose the flaws in his most famous and treasured accomplishment: earning the Medal of Honor. In the distortions, half-truths, and outright lies that mar Hooper's medal of honor file, authors Peter Maslowski and Don Winslow find a painful reflection of the army's inability to be honest with itself and the American public, with all the dire consequences that this dishonesty ultimately entailed. In the inextricably linked stories of Hooper and the Vietnam War, the nature of that deceit, and of America's defeat, becomes clear.

THE BEATLES ON THE ROAD , taschen. nuovo
Autore Harry Benson Collana FO Copertina cartonato Dimensioni cm 26,5 x 37,4 Pagine 272 Lingua/e italiano, spagnolo, portoghese Peso 3.35 kg Agli inizi del , Harry Benson divenne uno dei fotografi più vicini alla band inglese. A Parigi scattò la celeberrima foto della lotta con i cuscini all'Hotel George V; successivamente fotografò il loro primo viaggio negli Stati Uniti e l'impatto con l'isteria collettiva che si scatenò a New York, la famosa partecipazione all'Ed Sullivan Show, la tappa in Florida con l'incredibile incontro con Cassius Clay. I luminosi bianchi e neri di Benson mostrano da vicino i Beatles mentre compongono, cantano, incontrano i loro fan, si rilassano, e comunque affrontano la loro fama crescente. Oltre alle centinaia di fotografie, molte delle quali inedite, il volume è arricchito dall'introduzione scritta dallo stesso Benson, e da citazioni ed estratti dei giornali dell'epoca.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, Clete / Slade, Christian, PUBLISHER: Hyperion Books, David isn't happy about leaving Florida and his friends to summer with his crazy grandmother in "Middle-of-Nowhere," Washington. Arriving at her Intergalactic Bed & Breakfast, he isn't surprised by its the-60's-meets-Star-Wars d?cor, but he "is" surprised by the weird-looking guests. It turns out that each room in the inn is an off-earth portal and his grandma the gate-keeper, allowing aliens to vacation on Earth. Grandma desperately needs David's help monitoring the visitors, shopping for cartloads of aluminum-foil for dinner, and taking rambunctious alien kids, that glow-in-the-dark and look like trees, camping. The problem is, the town sheriff, already suspicious about Granny, is a scout leader camping in the same spot. Will David blow Granny's cover, forcing the B&B to shut down for good, or will the intergalactic police have to intervene?
The King of Someplace Hot
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McCrea, A. J., PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, In a land without law, how far do you go to protect the innocent? The year is . On the remote Caribbean island of St. Stephie a seaplane delivers a tall man clad in a pale linen suit. Paul Summers is fleeing a lifetime of lost battles. Released from his marriage and career he's living out his Jimmy Buffett-inspired dream of escaping to "saint somewhere, southeast of disorder" and hence his arrival at the Hotel Caribe Billfish Club, a resort as exotic and elegant as it's location on the distant edge of the islands. While napping on the sands of a turquoise cove Summers is woken by the lilting English of Lark Johnson, an Oxford-educated marine biologist of African descent, who asks "Why did they hurt you?," referring to scars Summers bears. That night the resort sponsors a grand fiesta. There Paul is introduced to Nikki Saunders, former supermodel, now owner-operator of Tiki Charters, a diving and big-game fishing operation, and her sidekick Yolanda "Yoyo" Magana. And on a subsequent moonlit night as Summers and Niki initiate their romance they discover the shark-mauled body of Ophelia Johnson, 14, sister to Lark. When Summers discovers that sharks were the least of the girl's problems, murders begin to bloom like jasmine. What develops is a Force 5 hurricane of political intrigue, corruption and violent confrontation. And for Summers to find his "one particular harbor," he must survive the storm.

Kay Scarpetta, costretta alla libera professione in Florida, viene richiamata con grande urgenza a Richmond, in Virginia, la città che cinque anni prima le aveva voltato le spalle.

È questo il motivo per cui i colleghi di una volta non riescono a venire a capo della morte di una quattordicenne. Dipenderà da una impercettibile traccia e da un colpo d’astuzia della protagonista - mai stata sola come adesso, oppressa dai rancori di un tempo e dalle incomprensioni di oggi - che l’indagine riesca a trovare finalmente un punto d’appoggio.

Editore: Mazzotta Anno: Numero di pagine: 62 Dimensione: 24.5x22 cm circa Copertina: brossura Stato: ottimo Si tratta del catalogo della mostra tenutasi a Milano presso il Castello Sforzesco (Sala Viscontea) dal 2 al 28 Febbraio . La mostra, dedicata ad Alvaro Occhipinti e Martino Mazzoleni, ha come titolo "il senso dell'ora" in omaggio a un grande poeta della pittura e al suo incantesimo nei confronti del colore, Paul Klee, che disse: ".. il colore mi possiede, non ho bisogno di andarne in cerca. Mi ha per sempre e io lo so. Questo e' il senso dell'ora felice...". Martino Mazzoleni e Alvaro Occhipinti, pittori della stessa generazione ma di diverse latitudini e geografie culturali, ripropongono in un confronto serrato il loro lavoro, il loro mondo di segni e cromie: diversi linguaggi ma comuni ascendenze. Questa mostra fa riflettere sulla continuita' di una cultura figurativa, a suo tempo, florida avanguardia a Milano e in Lombardia, l'astrattismo storico.

The Many Faces of Islam: Perspectives on a Resurgent
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rejwan, Nissim, PUBLISHER: University Press of Florida, Written in a style easily accessible to both students and general readers, The Many Faces of Islam offers a wide range of perspectives on modern Islamic culture and religious practice. Seeking to dispel the perception that Islamic fundamentalism and extremism represent Islam in its entirety, Nissim Rejwan surveys the issues and provides numerous excerpts from modern writers and scholars, Muslim and non-Muslim, summarizing the many problems and dilemmas facing contemporary Muslims. Rejwan argues that to view Islam as uniform and all of a piece invites confusion and miscomprehension. The rich sampling of readings amplifies the summary discussion and demonstrates the surprising variety of Islamic concepts and practices. Issues include the uniqueness of Islam, the decline of the Islamic establishment, the impact of modernity, misunderstandings of Islam, Islam and the Dhimmis, the fundamentalist revival, and more. With a novel, topical approach to his subject, Rejwan widens the view of Islam from radicalism to the culture as a whole. His combination of topical summary and illuminating, balanced texts will provide a useful resource for students of Islamic culture and, for general readers, an insightful, balanced, and engaging introduction to a poorly understood but increasingly important civilization.
