Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cat Talk with Oliver is a light, humorous story of a rescued feral cat who had issues with his "mom" and she with him! "My name is Oliver. I am a rescued feral cat . I was actually a rescued feral kitten when I found a home (such a relief)! "Because I am a very literate cat (I thank Mom for that), I have written my autobiography so you can learn all about my "journey" (I like that word) and how I became so magnificent (and I definitely am). Okay, okay, you might think I am bragging but I'm not; I am merely confident! "When Mom found me on the side of a street in a small Oregon Coast town, I was barely two pounds and was mostly bald. I had pneumonia, an eye infection, campylobacter, a severe infestation of ear mites and intestinal parasites ... and a lot more things I don't remember. I was little but my eyes were open (albeit pink with infection) so I could see when my soon-to-be-mom got out of her car to inspect the bit of orange fluff (me) she saw at the side of the road. Though mostly bald, I did have that little bit of fluff so she saw me. I mustered my strength and looked her straight in the eye. I don't know how I knew at that age (instinctual, I guess) but humans like that. "Mom named me Oliver, after Oliver Twist (Charles Dickens, ya know - see, I am very literate!) who started out rough but came out okay. This book is to tell you about my life ... since I am such a charismatic, impressive dude! Well, I am! "Mom and I had "issues" (her word) for a long time. She didn't understand that I didn't have a momma cat to teach me things about behavior, like biting. Frankly, I don't think she was taught some things either. She certainly wasn't intelligent herself when it came to things like raising her voice at me (yelling, ya know!). Hey! I'm not taking all the blame here! But, while things were difficult at times for both of us, they are good now. Really good. So, I hope you enjoy my story (I do!)." Oliver

Download or read book Animal Lessons written by Kelly Oliver and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy reads humanity against animality, arguing that "man" is man because he is separate from beast. Deftly challenging this position, Kelly Oliver proves that, in fact, it is the animal that teaches us to be human. Through their sex, their habits, and our perception of their purpose, animals show us how not to be them. This kinship plays out in a number of ways. We sacrifice animals to establish human kinship, but without the animal, the bonds of "brotherhood" fall apart. Either kinship with animals is possible or kinship with humans is impossible. Philosophy holds that humans and animals are distinct, but in defending this position, the discipline depends on a discourse that relies on the animal for its very definition of the human. Through these and other examples, Oliver does more than just establish an animal ethics. She transforms ethics by showing how its very origin is dependent upon the animal. Examining for the first time the treatment of the animal in the work of Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida, Agamben, Freud, Lacan, and Kristeva, among others, Animal Lessons argues that the animal bites back, thereby reopening the question of the animal for philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cats of America are under siege! Long gone are the good old days when a cat’s biggest worries were mean dogs or a bath. Modern cats must confront satanists, online predators, the possibility of needing to survive in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, and countless other threats to their nine lives. For over four decades, the American Association of Patriots have stood at the vanguard of our country's defense by helping to prepare our nation's cat owners for the difficult conversations they dread having with their pets. Written in a simple Q&A format, How to Talk to Your Cat About Gun Safety answers crucial questions such as, “What is the right age to talk to my cat about the proper use of firearms?” and “What are the benefits of my cat living a lifestyle of abstinence?” and especially “Why does my cat need to use the internet? Can’t he just play with yarn like cats used to do?” Our country—and our cats—stand at a precipice. It will take courage, and it will take hard work, but armed with the knowledge within these pages, we can make our cats—and America—great again!

Book excerpt: Compiled from transcriptions of interviews with blues artists made by Paul Oliver in 1960, Conversation with the Blues tells--in the artists' own words--of the significance of their music and the turbulent times and lives it reflects. Included are guitarists, pianists and other instrumentalists from the rural South and the urban North, from famous blues singers who recorded extensively to singers known only to their local communities. Copiously illustrated with Paul Oliver's photographs the book provides a rare glimpse--from cotton fields to the big-city--of African American music at a time when the South was still segregated. In a larger format to better display the pictures and with a new introduction by the author, this edition also contains a CD that captures the stark, ironic, but moving music and narratives of the singers themselves.
