Download or read book The Steppe and Other Stories written by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1998 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of Chekhov's works to be published in a serious literary journal, `The Steppe', with its masterly account of a spectacular thunderstorm, signifies his maturation as a writer of short stories. While the majority of his tales focus on the privileged classes, this selection shows that Chekhov never forgot his origins as the son of a failed provincial grocer, and characters as varied as the brutal soldier in `Gusev', the downtrodden old constable in `On Official Business', and the bemused peasants in `New Villa' testify to the power and flexibility of his art.

Download or read book The Devil s Long Tail written by David Stevens and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internet may be a utopia for free expression, but it also harbours nihilistic groups and individuals spreading bizarre creeds, unhindered by the risk-averse gatekeepers of the mass media -- and not all are as harmless as the Virtual Church of the Blind Chihuahua or Sexastrianism. With few entry barriers, ready anonymity and no centralised control, the internet offers wired extremists unprecedented access to a potential global audience of billions. Technology allows us to select the information we wish to receive -- so those of a fanatical bent can filter out moderating voices and ignore countervailing arguments, retreating into a virtual world of their own design that reaffirms their views. In The Devil's Long Tail, Stevens and O'Hara argue that we misunderstand online extremism if we think intervention is the best way to counter it. Policies designed to disrupt radical networks fail because they ignore the factors that push people to the margins. Extremists are driven less by ideas than by the benefits of participating in a tightly-knit, self-defined, group. Rather, extreme ideas should be left to sink or swim in the internet's marketplace of ideas. The internet and the web are valuable creations of a free society. Censoring them impoverishes us all while leaving the radical impulse intact.

In his arms, Aubrey can break free from her everyday, hardworking self and escape into the passion he promises. Beneath Maxx's carefully constructed mask of independent self-confidence, however, is somebody who is trapped in his own personal hell. Loving him feeds a longing that Aubrey didn't even know she had, but it may be what she should fear the most"--Page 4 of cover.
