Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An epic science fiction novel. A young woman (Beth) leads a science research team on a distant world at the same time as another team, protected by a large armed force, mine for precious ore. The science team genetically modify some members of one species, ape-like bipeds, to help provide labour. When the ruthless leader of the mining camp (Catanda) decides he will keep some of the ore for his personal gain, and he exterminates members of another mining group, the peaceful people of the science camp find themselves pitched in deadly conflict with Catanda and the armed forces. They seek refuge among the ape-people as a struggle begins for all their survival when Catanda threatens to exterminate them. They appear to have little hope of winning a conflict against a superior and technological armed force. A story of immortal love, ruthlessness, and the endless struggle of good against evil set in the jungle and desert of a young world. With links to videos, posters, and additional material on the internet to enrich the reader's experience. Authored by Mol Smith (Maurice Smith), a writer and creator of six feature films and numerous shorts for a small UK film production company: Onview Films; and a book which shares his unique style.
Download or read book Ripples of Battle written by Victor Davis Hanson and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2004-10-12 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of war refuse to remain local: they persist through the centuries, sometimes in unlikely ways far removed from the military arena. In Ripples of Battle, the acclaimed historian Victor Davis Hanson weaves wide-ranging military and cultural history with his unparalleled gift for battle narrative as he illuminates the centrality of war in the human experience. The Athenian defeat at Delium in 424 BC brought tactical innovations to infantry fighting; it also assured the influence of the philosophy of Socrates, who fought well in the battle. Nearly twenty-three hundred years later, the carnage at Shiloh and the death of the brilliant Southern strategist Albert Sidney Johnson inspired a sense of fateful tragedy that would endure and stymie Southern culture for decades. The Northern victory would also bolster the reputation of William Tecumseh Sherman, and inspire Lew Wallace to pen the classic Ben Hur. And, perhaps most resonant for our time, the agony of Okinawa spurred the Japanese toward state-sanctioned suicide missions, a tactic so uncompromising and subversive, it haunts our view of non-Western combatants to this day.
Download or read book Ethical Ripples of Creativity and Innovation written by Seana Moran and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we are going to promote creativity as an ideal to strive toward, shouldn't we make sure we also instil ethical anticipation so our creative contributions produce a better world rather than chaos and waste? Creativity drives cultural development. We all, directly or indirectly, collaborate in the creation of culture, and we are jointly responsible for the way that culture develops. The goals and decisions we make as both creators and adopters pave pathways into the future for us all. Instead of merely reflecting on past events, Ethical Ripples of Creativity and Innovation educates for 'proflection'—through cases that present what-might-be scenarios for creative contributions that are emerging into mainstream culture, stimulating real-time thinking about creativity-in-action.. This book offers the opportunity to strengthen ethical anticipation by considering the possibilities streaming from current creative offerings that affect our bodies, emotions, selves, and social interactions.

Download or read book Evaluating Communication for Development written by June Lennie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evaluating Communication for Development presents a comprehensive framework for evaluating communication for development (C4D). This framework combines the latest thinking from a number of fields in new ways. It critiques dominant instrumental, accountability-based approaches to development and evaluation and offers an alternative holistic, participatory, mixed methods approach based on systems and complexity thinking and other key concepts. It maintains a focus on power, gender and other differences and social norms. The authors have designed the framework as a way to focus on achieving sustainable social change and to continually improve and develop C4D initiatives. The benefits and rigour of this approach are supported by examples and case studies from a number of action research and evaluation capacity development projects undertaken by the authors over the past fifteen years. Building on current arguments within the fields of C4D and development, the authors reinforce the case for effective communication being a central and vital component of participatory forms of development, something that needs to be appreciated by decision makers. They also consider ways of increasing the effectiveness of evaluation capacity development from grassroots to management level in the development context, an issue of growing importance to improving the quality, effectiveness and utilisation of monitoring and evaluation studies in this field. The book includes a critical review of the key approaches, methodologies and methods that are considered effective for planning evaluation, assessing the outcomes of C4D, and engaging in continuous learning. This rigorous book is of immense theoretical and practical value to students, scholars, and professionals researching or working in development, communication and media, applied anthropology, and evaluation and program planning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year since she cast her sunbolt, Hitomi has recovered only a handful of memories. But the truths of the past have a tendency to come calling, and an isolated mountain fastness can offer only so much shelter. When the High Council of Mages summons Brigit Stormwind to stand trial for treason, Hitomi knows her mentor won’t return—not with Arch Mage Blackflame behind the charges. Armed only with her magic and her wits, Hitomi vows to free her mentor from unjust imprisonment. She must traverse spell-cursed lands and barren deserts, facing powerful ancient enchantments and navigating bitter enmities, as she races to reach the High Council. There, she reunites with old friends, planning a rescue equal parts magic and trickery. If she succeeds, Hitomi will be hunted the rest of her life. If she fails, she’ll face the ultimate punishment: enslavement to the High Council, her magic slowly drained until she dies. Memories of Ash is the highly anticipated sequel to Sunbolt, Book 1 of The Sunbolt Chronicles.

Download or read book Journey through Exodus written by Mike Newberry and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-03-27 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my years of studying the Bible, I have found several spiritual principles to be very appealing. I have read the promises about the possibility of being an overcomer. In the seven letters of Revelation 2 and 3, one reoccurring thing is the promises to the overcomers. If one thinks about it, you can either be an overcomer or be overcome. The choice is easy: I would rather be an overcomer. I have read the verses about the possibility of living life daily aided by heavenly wisdom. Listen to James 1:5: “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that gives to all men liberally, and upbraids not; and it shall be given him.” I have often asked the church, “On any given day, how often do we need the wisdom to make decisions and find needed direction?” To answer that question with “one hundred” would be conservative. To add to wisdom, we are told that we can tap into the heavenly supplies of strength, energy, power, and patience. According to James 1:5, God’s not going to fuss at you if you keep coming back again and again asking for more. The key to these and all the promises of the Bible are found in the discipline of a daily quiet time. When I was in college, with God’s help, I developed this discipline to attribute any spiritual success, any success, in my Christian life to the help I have found in this daily time with God and my Bible. To remove any excuses, I have written devotionals for my church. We have started in chapter 1, verse 1, of a book in the Bible and have worked our way through it. We have covered Genesis, Exodus, Philippians, and Leviticus, to mention a few; and as long as God gives me strength, we will continue. The pages in this book contain our thoughts and our understanding of our journey through Exodus.
Download or read book My Play Ground The Bronx written by Anthony F. Marano and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Play Ground-The Bronx: My Memoirs is the autobiography of Anthony F. Marano, a baby boomer born and raised in New York City who shares his poignant recollections of the good times including long-forgotten television shows, street games, amusement parks, movies, music, and much more. Marano grew up during the 1940s in Country Club Spencer Estates in the midst of the Bronx as a member of a group of boys fondly nicknamed "the Four Amigos." Marano's brother Frank, their next-door neighbor Willie Jr., and their friend John, also known as Butchie, were thick as thieves during both good times and bad. Marano begins retelling his life story with chapters about his rambunctious childhood that include entertaining tales about cap guns with ammunition that could be purchased at any candy store; his Remington truck bike, black with chrome trim, found next to the Christmas tree in 1956; and his first job as a soda jerk. This delightful collection of anecdotes will spark a desire in baby boomers everywhere to reflect warmheartedly on the joys of their own childhoods, their old neighborhoods, and the young friends who were once such an important part of their young lives.
