Obsessed with finding out what has happened to young Sidney Brentwood, Kate journeys to rural Wales where the boy was last seen. Aided by land-girl Aminta and the dashing young archaeologist Colin Kemp, Kate stumbles upon clandestine activities unknown to the War Office.

Download or read book Chemical agriculture and pollinators signs of a Planet in danger written by Giuseppe Zicari and published by Youcanprint. This book was released on 2023-02-24 with total page 687 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bees, that have inhabited the Planet for over 100 million years, are the common thread that tells the story of various ecological challenges such as the reduction of biodiversity, climate change, soil degradation, and energy transition. Paradoxically, agriculture is one of the major causes of irreversible and, therefore, unsustainable changes such as global warming and the extinction of pollinators from which it derives its benefits and wealth. The massive use of fossil fuels, the distribution of poisons such as pesticides (persistent, toxic, and bioaccumulative), the loss of fertility in monocultures of plants selected to satisfy economic needs, are some of the main causes of an ecologically unsustainable food production system. The book tries to show a different vision of the World we are building, a story of backstories and underestimated dangers. This book received two prizes: "Steli di Pace" (Stems of Peace) by the Union of European Journalists and Communicators in 2023 and it was the winner of the "Concorso Nazionale per la divulgazione scientifica Kerit-LC Edizioni" (National Competition for science dissemination) in 2024.

Download or read book Danger in the Field written by Geraldine Lee-Treweek and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-01-04 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of qualitative inquiry means that researchers constantly have to deal with the unexpected, and all too often this means coping with the presence of danger or risk. This innovative and lively analysis of danger in various qualitative research settings is drawn from researchers' reflexive accounts of their own encounters with 'danger'. An original take on the ever-popular topic of the ethics of research, this pioneering book expands the common sense use of the term to encompass not just physical danger, but emotional, ethical and professional danger too, with the authors paying special attention to the gendered forms of danger implicit in the research process. From the physical danger of researching the night club 'bouncer' scene to the ethical dangers of participant observation in an old people's home, these international contributions provide researchers and students with thought provoking insights into the importance of a well chosen research design.

Download or read book Playing with Fire Embracing Risk and Danger in Schools written by Mike Fairclough and published by John Catt. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a misconception, within the teaching profession and the general public, that Ofsted, the Health and Safety Executive and the establishment are against children being exposed to danger and that schools are prevented from giving children experiences which involve risk. Mike Fairclough, headmaster at West Rise Junior School, has blown that theory out of the water. In the superb Playing With Fire, Mike urges all schools to follow his lead, empowering other Heads and their schools to provide activities for their pupils which include an element of risk and danger. With entertaining and visual examples of his work at West Rise, including bee keeping, water buffalo breeding, shooting, archery, Forest School, paddle boarding, and skinning rabbits, Mike breezily demonstrates how teething problems and mistakes are part and parcel of risk-taking and should be embraced. The result is an empowering book that urges educators to cultivate their own resilience, courage and trust in the same way that we are hoping to foster those qualities within our students.

This book provides the traits of a psychopath so you can identify the psychopath before it is too late! Psychopaths can be found:?Çó running companies?Çó in prestigious government appointments, as judges, therapists, etc.'Çó in our families?Çó living next door However, they are not like normal people. They know they must carefully hide their true nature because others will not accept it. They know they are different. We are seeing in the news every day the incomprehensible behavior from educated and powerful people-behavior we cannot assign a reason for. We cannot understand that which has not been given a name. Danger Has a Face identifies psychopaths as the perpetrators of harassment, manipulation, abuse and conflict. The people profiled in this book are not the psychopaths who kill or rape but they have the same characteristics and leave a trail of destruction nonetheless. It has been estimated that 1 out of 20 men is a psychopath. The majority of these psychopaths are not violent criminals. These psychopaths however, continue to do untold damage to us all as they leave drama and devastation by abusing loved ones, manipulating others and blaming those consequences on others.Without being able to recognize them at the onset, they have easy access to prey on us. This book was written so we can identify them, give them a name and begin to help those individuals or ourselves who have been victimized, communities that have been shattered, or businesses corrupted. Those men we trusted our money to, the lying politicians whom we elected, the corrupt officials we expected to protect us, and the men we loved and married, all will be easily identified in this book. Danger Has A Face will give the rest of us trusting and honest people a fighting chance against the most dangerous psychopath- the educated, wealthy, socially skilled psychopath. Written with the experience and insight only survivor of a psychopath can impart, Danger Has a Face is above all a practical book, which could save your life.

Download or read book Purity and Danger written by Professor Mary Douglas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purity and Danger is acknowledged as a modern masterpiece of anthropology. It is widely cited in non-anthropological works and gave rise to a body of application, rebuttal and development within anthropology. In 1995 the book was included among the Times Literary Supplement's hundred most influential non-fiction works since WWII. Incorporating the philosophy of religion and science and a generally holistic approach to classification, Douglas demonstrates the relevance of anthropological enquiries to an audience outside her immediate academic circle. She offers an approach to understanding rules of purity by examining what is considered unclean in various cultures. She sheds light on the symbolism of what is considered clean and dirty in relation to order in secular and religious, modern and primitive life.
