Download or read book Political Geography written by Mark Blacksell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1904 Sir Halford Mackinder published his seminal paper The Geographical Pivot of History demonstrating the central position of political geography in the study of geography as a whole; a century later and political geography is still at the heart of human geography. Yet over time political geography has experienced many significant ups and downs, eventually recovering to a position of renewed pre-eminence as the last century drew to a close. This fascinating journey, charted by this equally fascinating book, forms a key part of the history of the evolution of spatial science. Beyond a narrative, the book provides an introduction to all the complex elements that constitute political geography today. Organized in three distinct sections, it covers: process and patterns ideology and geopolitical visions beyond the state. Tackling key contemporary issues (such as politics and the local state), as well as more traditional topics (such as state formation and international relations), this thought-provoking book covers the range of theoretical approaches. Including many original maps and diagrams which skilfully illustrate key themes, this book is a concise, student-friendly, pedagogically rich introduction for students of geography, political science and world affairs.
Download or read book Neptune and the Final Phase of the Piscean Age written by Sioux Rose and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-10-13 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume functions as two books in one. An "astrologer's reference" it delineates Neptune's conjunctions with planets from the birth chart. Additionally since the astrologer is trained to step outside the temporal context to understand the magnitude of stories inlaid into the rhythm structures of time its perspective is valuable as mankind faces a chaotic transition. The ancient Greeks personified the planetary personae through myth. Neptune, the deceiver, presides over the final phase of the Piscean Age as deception, delusion, and duplicity threaten the great verities. How did we get here? Mankind evidences remarkable technological expertise, but have matters improved for the vast majority? Illusions born of past traditions hold minds hostage, and pit tribe against tribe on the basis of divisive belief systems. Pisces is the zodiac position where the circle meets itself and differences dissolve. Symbolized by two fish, it suggests twin perceptual portals analogous to both brain hemispheres. Two complementary "oars" are required to navigate our shared vessel progressively; otherwise we circle endlessly and history repeats. Right brain sentience invokes what is missing: the sense of inherent unity among all living beings. Mankind can no longer afford the asymmetric worldview that undermines the great balance we must now endeavor to restore.
Download or read book Neptune and Triton written by Dale P. Cruikshank and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 1995-11 with total page 1292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first reconnaissance of all the major planets of the Solar System culminated in the Voyager 2 encounter with Neptune in August 1989. Neptune itself was revealed as a planet with gigantic active storms in its atmosphere, and off-center magnetic field, and a system of tenuous, lumpy rings. Whereas only two satellites were known prior to the encounter, Voyager discovered six more. Triton, the largest satellite, was revealed as a frozen, icy world with clouds and layers of haze, and with vertical plumes of particles reaching five miles into the thin atmosphere. This latest Space Science Series volume presents the current level of understanding of Neptune, its riings, and its satellites, derived from the data received from the Voyager. The book's chapters are written by the world's leading authorities on various aspects of the Neptune system and are based on papers presented at an international conference held in January 1992. Covering details of Neptune's interior, atmosphere, rings, magnetic fields, and near-space environment--as well as the small satellites and the remarkable moon Triton--this volume is a unique resource for planetary scientists and astronomers requiring a comprehensive analysis of Neptune viewed in the context of our knowledge of the other giant planets. Until another spacecraft is sent to Neptune, Neptune and Triton will stand as the basic reference on the planet.

No traditionally trained Tibetan healer would prepare a herbal prescription for a patient without first drawing up their astrological charts. It was the same back in the Middle Ages in European culture: astrology and medicine were one. The five year Degree in Traditional Tibetan Medicine or the Degree of Traditional Tibetan Astrology, was required before a healer was permitted to practice. Thirty percent of the staff at the Tibetan Medical & Astrological Institute of His Holiness the Dalai Lama of Dharamsala were involved solely in the preparation of astrological charts. A patient's natal chart is still used for initial diagnosis and in determining the best medical remedies and treatment. A work of love and one that he now passes on to those astrologers and healers who wish to know a little more of the link between astrology and health. As a retired psychologist he has tried to tone down his bias towards psychological health in the charts, but as a healer, he recognises just how important the link between mind and body truly is. The lively conversational format will both entertain and enlighten you. Reviews "Noel Eastwood is an amazing astrologer and gifted writer! I have never found so much good information about the astrology of health in any other book." AC "Beautifully written book that looks at individuals likely health issues through their predominance of the elements in their charts. It looks at whether one has a Fire, Eart , Air or Water Dominance in their Natal Chart. Depending upon the leading element the individual has, they will have certain strengths and weaknesses health wise. Written in an interactive conversational way between student and teacher it is entertaining and teaches the reader gradually over a number of lessons. Along the way It makes use of a number of case studiy charts to illustrate the lessons of elemental predominance with regards to Health. I know the elements are one of the cornerstones of Astrology. In understanding more about how their emphasis relates to ones health I found the book highly usefull." DK "Quite informative and i really liked the teacher/student format. I would have liked more charts on mental illness though. Detail oriented." AJ "I have just completed reading "Astrology of Health". I literally could not put it down. I learned so much!! By envisioning myself as silent observer at the table with Eastwood's student, I participated in each lesson. I am not an astrologer. Yet, I felt I examined each chart. I could clearly see the relationship between each astrological influence and how those influences manifested in each person's life. I had never thought about medical astrology at that depth nor had I clearly understood how generational charts reflected genetic, familiar medical and psychological themes and spiritual lessons. I was educated, informed, excited, and amazed!" CC
