Book A Natural History of Rape

Download or read book A Natural History of Rape written by Randy Thornhill and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2001-02-23 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biologist and an anthropologist use evolutionary biology to explain the causes and inform the prevention of rape. In this controversial book, Randy Thornhill and Craig Palmer use evolutionary biology to explain the causes of rape and to recommend new approaches to its prevention. According to Thornhill and Palmer, evolved adaptation of some sort gives rise to rape; the main evolutionary question is whether rape is an adaptation itself or a by-product of other adaptations. Regardless of the answer, Thornhill and Palmer note, rape circumvents a central feature of women's reproductive strategy: mate choice. This is a primary reason why rape is devastating to its victims, especially young women. Thornhill and Palmer address, and claim to demolish scientifically, many myths about rape bred by social science theory over the past twenty-five years. The popular contention that rapists are not motivated by sexual desire is, they argue, scientifically inaccurate. Although they argue that rape is biological, Thornhill and Palmer do not view it as inevitable. Their recommendations for rape prevention include teaching young males not to rape, punishing rape more severely, and studying the effectiveness of "chemical castration." They also recommend that young women consider the biological causes of rape when making decisions about dress, appearance, and social activities. Rape could cease to exist, they argue, only in a society knowledgeable about its evolutionary causes. The book includes a useful summary of evolutionary theory and a comparison of evolutionary biology's and social science's explanations of human behavior. The authors argue for the greater explanatory power and practical usefulness of evolutionary biology. The book is sure to stir up discussion both on the specific topic of rape and on the larger issues of how we understand and influence human behavior.

Book Bible Reliability  Birthing the Nation of Israel

Download or read book Bible Reliability Birthing the Nation of Israel written by James Gregory and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-12-23 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores Bible reliability in terms of Egyptian history. It also includes the value of the Law provided from God through Moses in terms of environmental and medical science. In the past, critics have claimed that the Bible is inaccurate in matching Egyptian history. Now, there is strong evidence the Egyptian history timeline needs to be revised. With this revised dating of the Egyptian 12th Dynasty, Bible information matches well with Egyptian history from Abraham to Moses. The Law matches well with modern medical science for control of infectious diseases. The Law also gives instructions for dealing with the management of mildew that too matches modern technology. The instructions for disposal of human waste match recommendations from modern science for primitive conditions.

Book The Rape of Nanking

  • Author : Iris Chang
  • Publisher : Basic Books
  • Release : 2014-03-11
  • ISBN : 046502825X
  • Pages : 301 pages

Download or read book The Rape of Nanking written by Iris Chang and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling account of one of history's most brutal—and forgotten—massacres, when the Japanese army destroyed China's capital city on the eve of World War II, "piecing together the abundant eyewitness reports into an undeniable tapestry of horror". (Adam Hochschild, Salon) In December 1937, one of the most horrific atrocities in the long annals of wartime barbarity occurred. The Japanese army swept into the ancient city of Nanking (what was then the capital of China), and within weeks, more than 300,000 Chinese civilians and soldiers were systematically raped, tortured, and murdered. In this seminal work, Iris Chang, whose own grandparents barely escaped the massacre, tells this history from three perspectives: that of the Japanese soldiers, that of the Chinese, and that of a group of Westerners who refused to abandon the city and created a safety zone, which saved almost 300,000 Chinese. Drawing on extensive interviews with survivors and documents brought to light for the first time, Iris Chang's classic book is the definitive history of this horrifying episode.

Book Bible Reliability  Discovering a Science Based Genesis

Download or read book Bible Reliability Discovering a Science Based Genesis written by James Gregory and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-04-04 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most widely published book in the world is the Bible. It is also the most criticized book in print. With the development of modern communication technology, critics can attack the Bible on a global scale, bypass reviews and quality-control processes, and make unchallenged claims. The information appears to be truthful and is presented with authority but ignores the real truth. The objective of this book is to compare Bible statements primarily from Genesis with modern scientific knowledge. The result is an excellent match between the Bible, written thousands of years ahead of the scientific discoveries, and science.

Book Reliable Partners

Download or read book Reliable Partners written by Charles Lipson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democracies often go to war but almost never against each other. Indeed, "the democratic peace" has become a catchphrase among scholars and even U.S. Presidents. But why do democracies avoid fighting each other? Reliable Partners offers the first systematic and definitive explanation. Examining decades of research and speculation on the subject and testing this against the history of relations between democracies over the last two centuries, Charles Lipson concludes that constitutional democracies have a "contracting advantage"--a unique ability to settle conflicts with each other by durable agreements. In so doing he forcefully counters realist claims that a regime's character is irrelevant to war and peace. Lipson argues that because democracies are confident their bargains will stick, they can negotiate effective settlements with each other rather than incur the great costs of war. Why are democracies more reliable partners? Because their politics are uniquely open to outside scrutiny and facilitate long-term commitments. They cannot easily bluff, deceive, or launch surprise attacks. While this transparency weakens their bargaining position, it also makes their promises more credible--and more durable, for democracies are generally stable. Their leaders are constrained by constitutional rules, independent officials, and the political costs of abandoning public commitments. All this allows for solid bargains between democracies. When democracies contemplate breaking their agreements, their open debate gives partners advance notice and a chance to protect themselves. Hence agreements among democracies are less risky than those with nondemocratic states. Setting rigorous analysis in friendly, vigorous prose, Reliable Partners resolves longstanding questions about the democratic peace and highlights important new findings about democracies in world politics, from rivalries to alliances. Above all, it shows conclusively that democracies are uniquely adapted to seal enduring bargains with each other and thus avoid the blight of war.
