Book Removing the Emperor s Clothes

Download or read book Removing the Emperor s Clothes written by Simon Chapman and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 2012, Australia became the first nation in the world to require all tobacco products to be sold in standard ‘plain’ packs under the leadership of the then Health Minister Nicola Roxon. Tobacco companies have had global apoplexy about the law. Humiliated in the Australian High Court with a six-one defeat, their hopes now rest with deterring other nations from following suit by pursuing international trade law action. With a combined 50 years of research and advocacy experience in tobacco control, Simon Chapman and Becky Freeman set out the evidence for the importance of plain packaging in striking at the heart of what remains of tobacco advertising. They examine the history of the idea, the tobacco industry’s frantic efforts to derail it, and the early evidence for its impact. Most importantly, they give tools to policy makers in other countries wanting to make the best case for plain packaging and to defend it from the inevitable attacks that will follow.

Book When the Emperor Was Divine

Download or read book When the Emperor Was Divine written by Julie Otsuka and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling, award-winning author of The Buddha in the Attic and The Swimmers, this commanding debut novel paints a portrait of the Japanese American incarceration camps that is both a haunting evocation of a family in wartime and a resonant lesson for our times. On a sunny day in Berkeley, California, in 1942, a woman sees a sign in a post office window, returns to her home, and matter-of-factly begins to pack her family's possessions. Like thousands of other Japanese Americans they have been reclassified, virtually overnight, as enemy aliens and are about to be uprooted from their home and sent to a dusty incarceration camp in the Utah desert. In this lean and devastatingly evocative first novel, Julie Otsuka tells their story from five flawlessly realized points of view and conveys the exact emotional texture of their experience: the thin-walled barracks and barbed-wire fences, the omnipresent fear and loneliness, the unheralded feats of heroism. When the Emperor Was Divine is a work of enormous power that makes a shameful episode of our history as immediate as today's headlines.

Book An analysis of the Product and Market functions of Asset Backed Securitization

Download or read book An analysis of the Product and Market functions of Asset Backed Securitization written by Nadine Senanayake and published by diplom.de. This book was released on 2009-12-08 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: In the past the basic concept of banking was when depositors were aspired to pay into banks or financial institutions which successively transferred these funds at a margin to individuals, businesses and credit worthy borrowers using methods of lending. The proportionate credit risk was the main apprehension of financial institutions that utilized existing functions and developed techniques to estimate the probability of these investors defaulting. In the 1980's significant technological advances assisted in the Securitization process, which enabled banks to hedge their credit-risk exposure by means of Securitization. Securitization was ranked amongst the big developments in the past years, like De-regulation, Globalization, Internationalization and the increasing permeation of technology. Securitization can be defined as a process of packaging individual loans and other debt instruments, concerting the package into a security, and enhancing their credit status or rating. Whereas the eighties were the age of securitization, one could describe the nineties as the age of asset securitization.[...] The worldwide issuance of assetbacked securities is expected to grow enormously in the future. In the 1990's we have seen a notable shift from the traditional loan financing to Securitization of bank assets within financial markets. The ABS has and remains to be an important form of balance sheet financing for financial institutions. Securitization is a widely used mechanism by financial institutions which add value to investors/shareholders and stakeholders if implemented in it's eligible framework. Since the proposed Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 came into effect, the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 which previously imposed restrictions on the integration process of banks, insurance and stock trading was eradicated; consequently: Boundaries between governments and markets were redrawn. This enabled consenting bankers the liberty to utilize mechanisms, which imparted in trail-blazing structures being introduced into the market. Moreover, dexterous bankers who have the capability to understand the complicated nature or intricacy of these structures did use them for their benefit by exploiting lacunas or setbacks in both the product and market sphere of the system. Hence, the focus of the paper will be to analyze the product functions namely, how the product was first initiated and the main incitement [...]

Book Racism  Not Race

    Book Details:
  • Author : Joseph L. Graves, Jr.
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2021-12-07
  • ISBN : 0231553730
  • Pages : 337 pages

Download or read book Racism Not Race written by Joseph L. Graves, Jr. and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The science on race is clear. Common categories like “Black,” “white,” and “Asian” do not represent genetic differences among groups. But if race is a pernicious fiction according to natural science, it is all too significant in the day-to-day lives of racialized people across the globe. Inequities in health, wealth, and an array of other life outcomes cannot be explained without referring to “race”—but their true source is racism. What do we need to know about the pseudoscience of race in order to fight racism and fulfill human potential? In this book, two distinguished scientists tackle common misconceptions about race, human biology, and racism. Using an accessible question-and-answer format, Joseph L. Graves Jr. and Alan H. Goodman explain the differences between social and biological notions of race. Although there are many meaningful human genetic variations, they do not map onto socially constructed racial categories. Drawing on evidence from both natural and social science, Graves and Goodman dismantle the malignant myth of gene-based racial difference. They demonstrate that the ideology of racism created races and show why the inequalities ascribed to race are in fact caused by racism. Graves and Goodman provide persuasive and timely answers to key questions about race and racism for a moment when people of all backgrounds are striving for social justice. Racism, Not Race shows readers why antiracist principles are both just and backed by sound science.

Book Neutrino  the Emperor   s New Clothes   Review of Neutrino Experiments

Download or read book Neutrino the Emperor s New Clothes Review of Neutrino Experiments written by B RAJASEKAR and published by Noveltronics. This book was released on 2019-05-27 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1930, the idea of neutrino was born. The neutrino was said to have no mass, no energy attribute (frequency), electrically neutral and not interacting with matter - in short, a physically in-describable entity. In 1956 Clyde L. Cowan and Frederick Reines announced that they had detected the neutrinos released from the nuclear reactor. Since then, the neutrino experiments took a giant leap. All the countries are conducting many neutrino experiments at an enormous cost. Every new neutrino experiment finds new things about neutrinos. The neutrinos have – mass- magnetic moment - left handed property – parallel, anti-parallel – neutrino-antineutrino- flavor – many more. The neutrinos interact with almost all elements such as electron, hydrogen, deuterium, chlorine, gallium. The neutrinos have a complex mechanism by which the neutrinos can change their property (flavor) while travelling. 1n 1900, the gamma rays were discovered. By 1914, all properties of the gamma rays were experimentally found. In 1932, the neutron was discovered. In the subsequent experiments conducted in a couple of years, all the properties of the neutrons were understood. Generally, every new experiment of any physical entity brings closer to the understanding of that physical entity. This is a well-observed fact. In the case of neutrino, every new experiment adds a new property to the neutrino. The mystery of neutrino keeps billowing and deepening. Neutrino experiments grow in size and budget. No useful purpose of neutrino is ever found, excepting sky-high claims of the neutrino scientists to their respective governments for sucking the tax payer’s huge money. All looked little fishy – are the neutrino scientists building castles in the air? This book reviews the neutrino experiments and the findings shock one to the core.

Book Groupthink

    Book Details:
  • Author : Christopher Booker
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2020-03-19
  • ISBN : 1472959086
  • Pages : 241 pages

Download or read book Groupthink written by Christopher Booker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Groupthink, his final book, the late, eminent journalist and bestselling author Christopher Booker seeks to identify the hidden key to understanding much that is disturbing about the world today. With reference to the ideas of a Yale professor who first identified the theory, and to the writings of George Orwell from whose 'newspeak' the word was adapted, Booker sheds new light on the remarkable – and worrying – effects of 'groupthink', and its influence on our society. Booker defines the three rules of groupthink: the adoption of a common view or belief not based on objective reality; the establishment of a consensus of right-minded people, an 'in group'; and the need to treat the views of anyone who questions the belief as wholly unacceptable. He shows how various interest groups, journalists and even governments in the twenty-first century have subscribed to this way of thinking, with deeply disturbing results. As Booker shows, such behaviour has led to a culture of fear, heralded by countless examples throughout history, from Revolutionary Russia to Napoleonic France and Hitler's Germany. In the present moment it has caused countless errors in judgement and the division of society into highly polarised, oppositional factions. From the behaviour of the controversial Rhodes Must Fall movement to the sacking of James Damore of Google, society's attitudes towards gender equality, the Iraq war and the 'European Dream', careers and lives have been lost as those in the 'in-group' police society with their new form of puritanism. As Booker argues, only by examining its underlying causes can we understand the sinister power of groupthink which permeates all aspects of our lives.
