Download or read book Forensic Pathology Reviews Vol 2 written by Michael Tsokos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-12-15 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of cutting-edge reviews of many of the key recent medical and legal advances in forensic science. These critical surveys concentrate on common pathological entities likely to be encountered in daily forensic routine, as well as on specific pathological conditions rarely seen in the autopsy room. Complementing rather than replacing the classic textbooks in forensic pathology, the authors explore new avenues for analyzing the pathology of burned bodies, traumatic brain injury, death by drug abuse, sudden cardiac death, sudden infant death and neonaticide, and fatalities resulting from kicking and trampling. Other areas of interest include accidental autoerotic deaths, hypothermia fatalities, injuries from resuscitation procedures, the interpretation of alcohol levels in different specimens, and the potential forensic differential diagnoses and interpretation of iliopsoas muscle hemorrhage in the light of autopsy.
Download or read book Five Days in London May 1940 written by John Lukacs and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1999-09-10 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “gripping [and] splendidly readable” portrait of the battle within the British War Cabinet—and Churchill’s eventual victory—as Hitler’s shadow loomed (The Boston Globe). From May 24 to May 28, 1940, members of Britain’s War Cabinet debated whether to negotiate with Hitler or to continue what became known as the Second World War. In this magisterial work, John Lukacs takes us hour by hour into the critical events at 10 Downing Street, where Winston Churchill and his cabinet painfully considered their responsibilities. With the unfolding of the disaster at Dunkirk, and Churchill being in office for just two weeks and treated with derision by many, he did not have an easy time making his case—but the people of Britain were increasingly on his side, and he would prevail. This compelling narrative, a Washington Post bestseller, is the first to convey the drama and world-changing importance of those days. “[A] fascinating work of historical reconstruction.”—The Wall Street Journal “Eminent historian Lukacs delivers the crown jewel to his long and distinguished career.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “A must for every World War II buff.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer “Superb…can be compared to such classics as Hugh Trevor-Roper’s The Last Days of Hitler and Barbara Tuchman’s The Guns of August.”—Harper’s Magazine
Download or read book Old Wine Broken Bottle written by Norman G. Finkelstein and published by OR Books. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Promised Land by Haaretz journalist Ari Shavit has been one of the most widely discussed and lavishly praised books about Israel in recent years. It has garnered encomiums from a broad spectrum of influential voices, including Thomas Friedman, David Remnick, Jonathan Freedland, Jeffrey Goldberg, Franklin Foer, and Dwight Garner. Were he not already inured to the logrolling that passes for informed opinion on this topic, Norman Finkelstein might have been surprised, astonished even. That’s because, as he reveals with typical precision, My Promised Land is riddled with omission, distortion, falsehood, and sheer nonsense. In brief chapters that analyze Shavit’s defense of Zionism and Israel’s Jewish identity, its nuclear arsenal and its refusal to negotiate peace, Finkelstein shows how highly selective criticism and sanctimonious handwringing are deployed to create a paean to modern Israel more sophisticated than the traditional our-country-right-or-wrong. In this way, Shavit hopes to win back an American Jewish community increasingly alienated from a place it once regarded as home. However, because the myths he recycles have been so comprehensively shattered, this project is unlikely to succeed. Like his landmark debunking of Joan Peters’s From Time Immemorial, Finkelstein’s clinical dissection of My Promised Land will be welcomed by those who prefer truth to propaganda, and who yearn for a resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict based on justice, rather than arguments framed by anguish and schmaltz.

Book excerpt: After an absence of almost fifty years, Larry looked for a cabaret that he had worked in as a waiter and found that it had been replaced by a parking lot. In his youth he was an innocent, aspiring writer, just out of college, looking for a place to work where hopefully he could obtain material for short stories. He found Neils, the cabaret, and talked his way into a job as a waiter despite the dangers and his slight appearance. Neils was a clip joint that was frequented mainly by servicemen and prostitutes. Larrys education removing him from navet began quickly. Larry describes his first meeting of prostitutes, an alcoholic man whose intoxication increased without even drinking the rum he had ordered, and encounters with servicemen who were benign and threatening. He also describes the musical entertainment provided by the cabaret that helped entice people to enter the place, women who came to Neils who may or may not have been prostitutes, army stories that some of the soldiers told him, a wedding in the cabaret, nights of fear, fights that he had to avoid, and a musician who had survived the second world war and dreamt some weird dreams. Incidents about Larrys non-cabaret life enter the narration, including his meeting the woman he married. Flo, an artist, would have supported him in his effort to write, but other matters intervened, and Larry had to wait almost fifty years to resurrect his notes and write his tale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sister Agathe Deladier has selflessly sought to serve others all her life, yet she has been caught up in two of history’s most appalling atrocities. As a young nun, she witnessed the virtual extermination of an entire French village during the Second World War. Later she was again forced to fight for her own survival, this time in the Rwandan genocide, an event with horrific parallels to Nazi brutality.Having come close to death, she tries to make sense of the evil events which play out before her. In doing so she has a profound impact on those with whom she comes into contact, notably Otto Bauer, a disillusioned Nazi soldier who saves her life but who in turn becomes dependant on her for his own survival.When all hope seems lost it is still possible for the most despised to be redeemed. Father Dominic Leseuer has abused young boys for years, stolen from his parishioners and ridiculed the faithful. Yet, in an act of supreme courage he is able to rediscover his former upright and idealistic self.However, others find that revenge is the only antidote to brutality. Samuel Karamira, trying to cope with the death of his son and his own life-threatening injuries, can only find satisfaction through the pursuit of his tormentor. In doing so he perpetuates the very hatred that has wrecked his life and those of thousands of others.In exploring the reactions of those caught up in these most visceral experiences, Through Arid Places glimpses the cosmic spiritual struggle being played out on earth and, in a surprising twist, reveals the motivation of Agathe Deladier in trying to make good come out of the most unspeakable evil.
