Download or read book Byron Easy written by Jude Cook and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s December 24th, 1999. Byron Easy, a poverty-stricken poet, half-drunk and suicidal, sits on a train at King’s Cross Station waiting to depart. In his lap is a backpack containing his remaining worldly goods—an empty wine bottle, a few books, a handful of crumpled banknotes. As the journey commences, he conjures memories (both painful and euphoric) of the recent past, of his rollercoaster London life, and, most distressingly, of Mandy—his half-Spanish Amazonian wife—in an attempt to make sense of his terrible—and ordinary—predicament. What has led him to this point? Where are his friends, his family, his wife? What has happened to his dreams? And what disturbing plan awaits him at the end of his journey? Byron Easy is an epic, baroque, sprawling masterpiece of a novel—a unique portrait of love and marriage, of the flux of memory, and of England in the dying days of the twentieth century from a young British writer of exceptional promise.

Download or read book Serpents In The Garden written by Randy A Cook and published by eGenesis Media. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dragons have always been a prevalent part of the mythos of humankind. Since ancient times they have existed in the hazy twilight of the sunrise and the darkening shadows given strength by the fading sun. They have dwelt with us in virtually every culture that has risen or fallen in the long existence of this fragile world. We only upon occasion, catch a fleeting glimpses of them, as we pass through their shadows, never looking fully upon the terrible truths that they may represent. At times, these are creatures to inspire and offer salvation from the troubles that plague our kind. But more often, they are a darker reflection of the fear, suffering and pain that we both individually and collectively endure during the short course of our mortal lives. Serpents in the Garden, is a Thunder of three decades of the human condition and the world's pain as experienced by one such man, trying at best, to exorcise his own darker Dragons and at worst, to justify his own actions in a world that we all struggle to survive within. Some might consider them to be, the unexpected expectation of life.

Download or read book Human Rights and Personal Self Defense in International Law written by Jan Arno Hessbruegge and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While an abundance of literature covers the right of states to defend themselves against external aggression, this is the first book dedicated to the right to personal self-defense in international law. Drawing on his extensive experience as a human rights practitioner and scholar, Dr. Hessbruegge sets out in careful detail the strict requirements that human rights impose on defensive force by law enforcement authorities, especially police killings in self-defense. The book also discusses the exceptional application of the right to personal self-defense in military-led operations, notably to contain violent civilians who do not directly participate in hostilities. Human rights also establish parameters on how broad or narrow the laws can be drawn on self-defense between private persons. Setting out the prevailing international standards, the book critically examines the ongoing trend to excessively broaden self-defense laws. It also refutes the claim that there is a human right to possess firearms for self-defense purposes. In extraordinary circumstances, the right to personal self-defence sharpens human rights and allows people to defend themselves against the state. Here the author establishes that international law gives individuals the right to forcibly resist human rights violations that pose a serious risk of significant and irreparable harm. At the same time, he calls into question prevailing state practice, which fails to recognize any collective right to organized armed resistance even when it constitutes the last resort to defend against genocide or other mass atrocities.

Download or read book Human Adaptation written by Yehudi A. Cohen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underlying the anthropological study of humans is the principle that there is a reality to which a human must adapt for survival. Populations must adapt to the realities of the physical world and maintain a proper fit between their biological makeup and the pressures of the various niches of the world. Social groups must develop adaptive mechanisms in the organization of their social relations if there is to be order, regularity, and predictability in patterns of cooperation and competition. This book presents an introduction to anthropology that is unified and made systematic by its focus on adaptations that have accompanied the evolution of humans, from non-human primates to inhabitants of vast urban areas in modern industrial societies. Human Adaptation contains over forty outstanding essays that are intended to serve as an introduction to physical anthropology, archeology, and linguistics from the point of view of the processes of adaptation. The organization of these selections contains a balance between biological and prehistoric cultural adaptations. They provide coherence for the study of human evolution. Several selections, notably those in connection with linguistic adaptations, deal with contemporary people in order to shed light on earlier evolutionary processes. More than half of the selections deal with biological evolution. This volume unifies the subject matter of anthropology within a single and powerful explanatory framework and incorporates the work of the most renowned anthropological experts on man.

When her emotionally-abusive ex flees the country to escape arrest for blackmailing other politicians, it’s actually a relief—a chance to reclaim her life. But retreating to the mountain house gifted by her mother, she’s met by hostility from the nearby town. The locals blame Erin for her ex’s corrupt actions that led to the construction of a private prison, drawing gangs, violence, and death. Wilderness guide Wyatt Masterson lives by one rule: Don’t Date Locals. It’s a rule he’s followed effortlessly until Erin moves to town, and the city girl gets herself lost in the unforgiving woods. He doesn’t want to like the politician’s ex, but how can he resist the little mechanic’s chin-up attitude, her fortitude, and her unwavering honesty? Erin finds Wyatt devastatingly attractive. The big, rugged cowboy is tough and confident. An unshakable shelter. However, it’s too soon to get involved with anyone. Look what a mistake she made with her marriage. She needs time to heal and rediscover herself. But time is the one thing they don’t have. Her ex’s crimes have born violent fruit, and no one in town is safe.
