The Development of Political Institutions: Power, Legitimacy, Democracy
by Federico Ferrara
English | 2022 | ISBN: 0472132830 | 216 Pages | True ePUB | 0.34 MB

While the literature on "new institutionalism" explains the stability of institutional arrangements within countries and the divergence of paths of institutional development between countries, Federico Ferrara takes a "historical institutionalist" approach to theorize dynamic processes of institutional reproduction, institutional decay, and institutional change in explaining the development of political institutions. Ferrara synthesizes "power-based" or "power-distributional" explanations and "ideas-based" "legitimation explanations." He specifies the psychological "microfoundations" of processes of institutional development, drawing heavily from the findings of experimental psychology to ensure that the explanation is grounded in clear and realistic assumptions regarding human motivation, cognition, and behavior. Aside from being of interest to scholars and graduate students in political science and other social-scientific disciplines whose research concentrates on the genesis of political institutions, their evolution over time, and their impact on the stability of political order and the quality of governance, the book will be required reading in graduate courses and seminars in comparative politics where the study of institutions and their development ranks among the subfield's most important subjects.

The Dictator's Dilemma at the Ballot Box: Electoral Manipulation, Economic Maneuvering, and Political Order in Autocracies
by Masaaki Higashijima
English | 2022 | ISBN: 0472075314 | 366 Pages | True ePUB | 1.67 MB

Contrary to our stereotypical views, dictators often introduce elections in which they refrain from employing blatant electoral fraud. Why do electoral reforms happen in autocracies? Do these elections destabilize autocratic rule? The Dictator's Dilemma at the Ballot Box argues that strong autocrats who can garner popular support become less dependent on coercive electioneering strategies. When autocrats fail to design elections properly, elections backfire in the form of coups, protests, and the opposition's stunning election victories. The book's theoretical implications are tested on a battery of cross-national analyses with newly collected data on autocratic elections and in-depth comparative case studies of the two Central Asian republics of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.

The Doctors of Death by Philippe Aziz, translated by David De Angelis
English | January 10, 2024 | ISBN: 9791222494548 | True EPUB | 590 pages | 7.1 MB
Those who don't know history are condemned to repeat it.

More than seventy years after the end of the Second World War, reading this book has never been more important.
The Doctors of Death is a historical document about the horrors of Nazi medicine during the Second World War. From the social and ideological context that allowed the role of the doctor to be utterly corrupted, to those responsible on the ground for the most heinous acts, this is a work based on the testimonies of survivors, the confessions of SS doctors and thousands of documents that the Nazis were unable to destroy before their final defeat.
Thousands of children, disabled people, homosexuals, gypsies, Jews and even dissident Germans, prisoners of an ideology that denied them their human condition, were subjected to atrocious medical experiments with the aim of annihilating inferior races or helping the war effort. It was the height of the Third Reich's cruelty, a scientific delirium that shocks and disgusts. And it must be read so that it is never forgotten.

The Don: 36 Rules of the Bosses by RJ Roger, Joost Elffers
English | November 26th, 2024 | ISBN: 080654466X | 272 pages | True EPUB | 0.61 MB
From Cosa Nostra expert RJ Roger and publishing genius Joost Elffers comes a riveting history of the Mafia in America, the undeniable sweep and power of the Five Families, and their Machiavellian strategies-all condensed into an electrifying guidebook for understanding and harnessing the Mafia's philosophy of successfully rising within any hierarchy (legally, of course).

A captivating history of the Mafia in America as well as an illuminating breakdown of the formidably effective-indeed ruthless-success strategies of the infamous Five Families that ruled, for anyone who's ever wondered what it takes to be a boss.
The Don: 36 Rules of the Bosses is the fascinating culmination of author RJ Roger's extensive research into the Italian-American Cosa Nostra. Analyzing more than 100 years of underworld history, Roger has distilled the behavior of the bosses of the five New York Mafia families-the most powerful in the United States-into 36 rules. Unwritten until codified in The Don, these rules were the foundation of the bosses' success for over a century.
Created in collaboration with Joost Elffers, the producer behind Robert Greene's international bestseller The 48 Laws of Power, Roger's The Don: 36 Rules of the Bosses details the history of the American Mafia. More important, it elucidates the strategies by which the bosses of the Five Families achieved and held power.
Many of these leaders were devotees of Niccolò Machiavelli's treatise The Prince, a manual for would-be rulers written in 1513 and still read today by power brokers of many kinds around the world. Understanding the influence of this book on the most successful Mafia bosses, and also applying his expertise in contemporary business practices and his deep knowledge of America's underworld, Roger has identified 36 rules common to them all. In The Don, he explains these rules in ways that will be useful to any reader hoping to gain power, whether personally, politically, or in business.

The bulk of the world's growth in population and economic activity in the foreseeable future will be generated in the developing world.

Drawing on real cases from around the world, and on their extensive research and consulting experience with family enterprises globally, The Enduring Enterprise will provide business leaders everywhere with new and useful adaptive strategies, proven to work in the toughest conditions, to help them face the world of greater uncertainty that lies ahead.

The Examined Run: Why Good People Make Better Runners by Sabrina B. Little
English | March 1, 2024 | ISBN: 0197678696 | 296 pages | PDF | 2.88 Mb
Can running make me a more moral person? Can striving to be a better person make me a better runner?

In The Examined Run, philosopher and ultramarathon runner Sabrina B. Little asks whether running can be a laboratory for developing our character. She looks at the key ideas in virtue ethics-virtue, vice, exemplarism, moral emotions, and competition-and brings them into conversation with her experience in training and racing. Little pushes against the frequent conversations about ethics and sport that focus on the negative-doping and other forms of cheating or on simplistic expressions like "no pain, no gain." She argues that these ideas don't address the rich picture of how athletics inform a good life, and sport's relationship to acts of justice or courage. A good athlete is not just one who avoids cheating-rather, they perform feats of perseverance and courage, and succeed by working to develop their natural capacities. Little employs her own experiences in training, coaching, and racing in world class ultramarathons to reveal how athletics and virtue are deeply interconnected.

The Fantasy of J.R.R. Tolkien: Mythopoeia and the Recovery of Creation
by Robert J. Dobie
English | 2024 | ISBN: 0813238153 | 277 Pages | PDF | 4.5 MB

At the heart of Tolkienian fantasy is "recovery," a "cleaning of the windows" of our perception that we may learn to see the world again in all its strange and bewildering beauty. And, for Tolkien, to recover the world anew is to recover a sense of the world as a meaningful act of creation by a living and loving Creator. How does Tolkien accomplish this? Through "sub-creation" or mythopoeia, the "fashioning of myth." For it is in creating an imaginary world ourselves through poetry, fairy-story and myth that we come to "see" our "primary world" as itself an act of creation. In short, mythopoetic creation, far from being "lies breathed through silver," uncovers for us the truth of our world as a story of creation.
This book is the first sustained attempt to show not only the centrality of recovery to Tolkien's fantasy but the way in which his fantasy affects that primal recovery in every reader. In doing so, this book not only reveals the marvelous philosophical and theological riches that underlie Tolkien's fantasy but shows how his mythopoetic fiction allows the recovery and enactment of these riches in our own lives. In these pages we learn how Tolkien's fantasy addresses fundamental problems such as the relation of language to reality, the nature of evil, the distinction between time and eternity and its relation to death and immortality, the paradox of necessity and free will in human action and the grounds for providential hope in a "happy ending." Indeed, The Fantasy of J.R.R. Tolkien shows how for Tolkien fantasy has within itself a healing power through which intellectual, moral and existential paradoxes are resolved and our intellectual and perceptual faculties are made whole again so that they may participate with renewed vigor in the life-giving work of creation of every sort.

The Forever War: America's Unending Conflict with Itself - the history behind Trump and JD Vance by Nick Bryant
English | June 4, 2024 | ISBN: 1399409301 | 336 pages | PDF | 2.28 Mb
'This is a must read book for all those who love America and want it to be healed.' - Justin Webb, presenter of the BBC's Today programme and Americast

'Unflinching and insightful.' - Lyse Doucet, the BBC's Chief International Correspondent
From the author of When America Stopped Being Great, an insightful and urgent reassessment of America's past, present and future - as a country which is forever at war with itself.
The Forever War tells the story of how America's extreme polarization is 250 years in the making, and argues that the roots of its modern-day malaise are to be found in its troubled and unresolved past.
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, the American experiment is failing. Division, mistrust and misinformation are now the country's defining characteristics. The storming of the Capitol, the prosecution of Donald Trump and battles over gun rights and abortion raise the spectre of further political violence.
Nick Bryant explains how the hate, divisiveness and paranoia we see today are in fact a core part of America's story. Combining brilliant storytelling, historical research and first-hand reportage, Bryant argues that insurrections, massacres and civil disturbances should sadly not be seen as abnormalities; they are a part of the fabric of the history of America.

Cliff Evans, Emma Tippins, "The Foundations of Emergency Care"
English | 2006 | pages: 310 | ISBN: 0335221246, 0335221254 | PDF | 3,2 mb
"...it is refreshing to review a book that doesn't claim to include everything but literally provides a foundation by focusing upon key areas within Emergency Care - to borrow that hackneyed phrase - "it does what it says on the tin"!"

Tim Barr, Cardiff University, UK The Foundations of Emergency Care is an accessible text that brings together both academic and clinical experts to combine coverage of the clinical skills and underpinning theoretical knowledge essential to practice within the modern emergency setting.
Using an evidenced-based and protocol driven approach, this clinical companion guides readers through a multitude of common patient scenarios, to help them acquire essential skills in assessment and priority assignment in an emergency care setting.
Each chapter includes scenarios that utilise common emergency care presentations to clearly demonstrate how practitioners can identify critical illness at an early stage through understanding how disease and illness affect normal physiology and how this relates to the patient's clinical presentation. This ability to critically analyse physical findings assists the practitioner in becoming a specialist and directly saves lives.
Key areas covered include:
- Cardiac Emergencies: including the new 2006 ALS guidelines
- Head Injuries
- Acute Surgical Emergencies
- Gynaecologic and Obstetric Emergencies
- Respiratory Distress
- Paediatric Emergencies
- Minor Trauma and Illness
- Major Trauma
- Acute Medical Emergencies The book also includes scenarios that cover the treatment of the elderly and those presenting with mental health emergencies. This important new book encourages readers to reflect on their clinical encounters to gain further insight into relevant treatment options and illustrates how critical thinking can be applied in emergency care.
Essential reading for healthcare professionals working within emergency care and students requiring the fundamental skills necessary to competently undertake patient assessment and correctly prioritise patient care.

The Geopolitical Economy of Football: Where Power Meets Politics and Business
by Simon Chadwick, Paul Widdop
English | 2025 | ISBN: 1032753641 | 335 Pages | True PDF | 11.6 MB

This book examines the new geopolitical economy of football, exploring the intersection of money, politics, and power in the world's most popular sport.
Against a background of international conflict and the emergence of powerful new state actors in world sport, the book considers how football investments and events have become instruments of soft power and industrial development, and how football plays an increasingly significant role in global politics and international relations. Featuring the work of leading researchers from around the world, and case studies from five continents, the book examines key contemporary issues such as the Gulf States' interests in European soccer and debates around 'sportwashing' and human rights, the global politics of artificial intelligence (AI) in football, and football's complex relationship with migration and identity in Africa and Latin America. It considers the seismic impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine on the geopolitics of football; on the shifting landscape of the governance of football in Europe; the rise of Major League Soccer and the 'Messi effect', and how the development of China and India into global economic superpowers is reflected in their vision for their domestic football leagues. The book also considers the importance of Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) and their commercial partners and stakeholders as geopolitical actors on the world stage.
This is a fascinating read for anybody with an interest in sport, political economy, international politics, globalisation, or development.
