Download or read book By the Wing of a Dove written by Kristian Brockmann and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the Wing of a Dove is poetry written and illustrated by Kristian Brockmann, with a brief introduction explaining the background to the poems within. On a beautiful spring day in mid-October, he released two heavenly doves on the Balmain peninsula overlooking Sydney Harbour. This was mainly in recognition of Sri Lankan colleagues he had met through work as an Engineer. Colleagues both Sinhalese and Tamil were recent migrants to Australia, as are many Australians, and the doves symbolise the end of the civil confl ict in Sri Lanka in 2009. The poetry is much more than just a symbol of peace though. Dedicated to family and friends, part one was written in hospital recovering from a diffi cult illness. He recovered in 2008 in the Hunter Valley with family support. The second part of the poetry is compiled from various other times in his life. Each of the poems is illustrated with a photograph from places around Australia and from a holiday in Europe in 2004. Following his recovery, he worked in Sydney for several years before returning to the Hunter Valley where he currently resides, writing poetry in his spare time.

Download or read book Deadly Contradictions written by Stephen P. Reyna and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As US imperialism continues to dictate foreign policy, Deadly Contradictions is a compelling account of the American empire. Stephen P. Reyna argues that contemporary forms of violence exercised by American elites in the colonies, client state, and regions of interest have deferred imperial problems, but not without raising their own set of deadly contradictions. This book can be read many ways: as a polemic against geopolitics, as a classic social anthropological text, or as a seminal analysis of twenty-four US global wars during the Cold War and post-Cold War eras.

Download or read book Mortal Wounds written by Martin Smith and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2017-08-30 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biological anthropologist uses the human skeleton to examine the history of violence from the Mesolithic era to the nineteenth century. Human beings have a violent past. Physical hostilities between people are at least as old as humanity and the roots of such behaviour go very deep. Earlier studies have been based on a range of sources including written documents, as well as archaeological evidence in the form of weapons, armour and defences. However, each of these is fraught with problems and there is in fact only one form of evidence that can both directly testify to past violence and which has also been present throughout the whole human story –the remains of past people themselves. This book brings together a wealth of recently recognised evidence from preserved human skeletons to investigate a range of questions regarding the ways human beings have used violence to achieve their aims, in a single volume presenting this continuous thread of unbroken evidence from the early Stone Age to the 19th century. Who engaged in violence? Who were the victims? How have styles and objectives of conflict changed over time? How old is war and why did it appear when it did? All these and further questions are addressed in this cutting-edge book, the first of its kind to be aimed at the general reader and written for an audience that may not be familiar with what we can learn from the human skeleton about our shared past and the changing face of human conflict. Praise for Mortal Wounds “This well researched, well written book is recommended for archaeologists, military historians and all those interested in the development of human kind.” —Minerva “An excellent introduction to the bioarchaeology of interpersonal conflict. [This book] will likely be of greatest interest to bioarchaeologists, but the thorough explanations and descriptions of concepts and methods make the book accessible to a general, non-specialist audience” —Classical Journal “This engaging, well-written, illustrated book introduces readers to a relatively new field within anthropology called “conflict archaeology.” . . . The book is aimed at general readers, and Smith avoids jargon whenever possible, clearly defining specialized terms when necessary. The book should also be worthwhile reading for academics with related interests but who lack expertise in skeletal analysis. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All public and academic levels/libraries.” —Choice
