Book excerpt: The Roaring Twenties, jazz music, Hollywood glamour: the end of the First World War ushered in a golden age for America, with a booming stock market and rampant property speculation. It seemed as if the good times with Presidents Harding and then Coolidge in charge would never end. In marked contrast were the fortunes of many European countries, struggling to repay war debts and with the terms of the Treaty of Versailles plunging Germany into economic catastrophe. With Herbert Hoover now President, the US markets continued to climb and some investors sold out, sensing trouble ahead. The Crash came in October 1929, and America slid into deep depression. Against a background of bank failures, industrial decline, rural poverty and unemployment, protests, strikes and riots broke out. Hoover was swept from power in 1932 and it fell to the new President, Franklin D. Roosevelt, to revive America's fortunes with a number of ground-breaking new programmes which made up the New Deal. This book covers this turbulent period in America's history, introducing us to the key figures and revealing the impact which the Great Depression had on the American people. Will be of value to GCSE, AS and A level history students looking for an accessible account of the Great Depression.

Download or read book HELMAS DARK DIMENSIONS AND EMERGING REALITIES written by Karim Mokhtar and published by Carthage ABC. This book was released on with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Helmas, Dark Dimensions, and Emerging Realities" serves as an introductory volume in a larger series exploring the Helmas Theory. This theory proposes that our universe is a projection from higher-dimensional entities called Helmas, which are responsible for generating and interacting with various dimensions, including space, time, and consciousness. The book presents a broad overview of the fundamental concepts of Helmas Theory without delving into highly detailed explanations. It introduces readers to the idea that the spatial and temporal dimensions we experience are projections from the Space Helma and Time Helma, respectively. Designed to be accessible to a wide audience, the text emphasizes the intriguing possibility that phenomena such as dark matter and dark energy could be understood as projections from specific types of Helmas. The book also discusses the limitations of human perception in grasping the full complexity of these higher-dimensional realities. It is suitable for readers interested in theoretical physics, cosmology, and metaphysics, offering a modest yet compelling introduction to a new perspective on the structure of our universe. This volume sets the stage for more detailed explorations in subsequent books of the series, encouraging readers to expand their understanding of the unseen dimensions that shape our reality.

Download or read book The Realities of Reality Part II Making Sense of Why Modern Science Advances Volume 1 written by Fritz Dufour, MBA, DESS and published by Fritz Dufour. This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Volume 1 of Part II considers the factors that make science progress. It lays out the differences between normal science and pseudoscience by showing the importance of the scientific method in the advancement of science. It introduces the concept of Truth in science by raising the point that even though truth is based on the scientific method, can science be true? Can it depict reality? The author focuses on modern science, which, he thinks, was born thanks to the Scientific Revolution which started with Galileo Galilei and led to the Industrial Revolution. The impacts of the latter is analyzed in light modernism, modernization, and modernity, all three linked to scientific progress. The book also talks about the Newtonian scientific leap – by analyzing particularly the then social and political fabrics of England – and Albert Einstein by showing how he changed history. According to the author, our very physical world can help us understand scientific progress. So, he explains, among other things, the structure of atoms and molecules, the role of physics in the understanding of our universe, Quantum Mechanics, and the importance of Higgs-Boson. On the other hand, the book is a stunning revelation of how important information is to scientific progress. To make his point, the author, first, talks about John Vincent Atanasoff as the Father of computer thanks to the invention of his ABC computer and then, Alan Turing as the Father of modern computer thanks to his Turing Test and his views on Artificial Intelligence. Both men played a momentous role in the Digital Revolution and in the Information Age, according to the book. Finally, the author talks about nanotechnology, which explores the world of small, meaning at the atomic and the molecular levels and is an inescapable tool in the molecular biology revolution which, itself, is an important factor in scientific progress and in transhumanism or human enhancement defined as the ideology according to which man can surpass his present state by improving his genetic material.

Download or read book American Mobbing 1828 1861 written by David Grimsted and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998-05-21 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Mobbing, 1828-1861: Toward Civil War is a comprehensive history of mob violence related to sectional issues in antebellum America. David Grimsted argues that, though the issue of slavery provoked riots in both the North and the South, the riots produced two different reactions from authorities. In the South, riots against suspected abolitionists and slave insurrectionists were widely tolerated as a means of quelling anti-slavery sentiment. In the North, both pro-slavery riots attacking abolitionists and anti-slavery riots in support of fugitive slaves provoked reluctant but often effective riot suppression. Hundreds died in riots in both regions, but in the North, most deaths were caused by authorities, while in the South more than 90 percent of deaths were caused by the mobs themselves. These two divergent systems of violence led to two distinct public responses. In the South, widespread rioting quelled public and private questioning of slavery; in the North, the milder, more controlled riots generally encouraged sympathy for the anti-slavery movement. Grimsted demonstrates that in these two distinct reactions to mob violence, we can see major origins of the social split that infiltrated politics and political rioting and that ultimately led to the Civil War.
