Titivillus' Bag of Tricks: Media Ontology, Epistemology, and Aesthetics
by Paul Majkut
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3770569261 | 147 Pages | PDF | 4.87 MB

Titivillus' Bag of Tricks puts forward an understanding of media change that accounts for the birth of a medium in the misuse of older media, addressing structural problems in "cusp" periods of transition from one medium to its more efficient replacement. "Titivillus" is the name medieval scribes gave to a patron devil they claimed caused copying errors. He was their excuse for errors due to exhaustion, poor lighting, boredom, and other external factors. Through time and in ensuing media innovation, he has seemingly enlarged his domain in order to bedevil typographers, book binders, filmmakers, radio and television broadcasters, web designers - any who labor in any form of media. With this flexibility, not only scribal errors but any language error may be attributed to him.
In Titivillus' Bag of Tricks, Majkut argues that at the time of media historical change, technical vocabulary for a new medium does not yet exist so inherited vocabulary is all that is available. The vocabulary of the older medium, originally descriptive, becomes metaphorical, and therefore misleading when applied to the new medium - another addition to Titivillus' bag of tricks.
"A profound endeavour that reveals that media shifts are not merely technological advancements but reconfigurations of humanity's epistemological and ontological framework ... Majkut's exploration into the embodiment of language is exactly what we need. An incisive critique of academia's blind spots." Professor Jun Inutsuka, PhD - Jissen Women's University, Tokyo, Japan

Uncrowned Queen: The Treacherous Life of Margaret Beaufort, Tudor Rebel by Nicola Tallis
English | November 7, 2019 | ISBN: 1782439927 | 400 pages | PDF | 10 Mb
The first comprehensive biography in three decades on Margaret Beaufort, the mother of the Tudor Dynasty.

During the bloody and uncertain days of the Wars of the Roses, Margaret Beaufort was married to the half brother of the Lancastrian king Henry VI. A year later she endured a traumatic birth that brought her and her son close to death. She was just thirteen years old.
As the battle for royal supremacy raged between the houses of Lancaster and York, Margaret, who was descended from Edward III and thus a critical threat, was forced to give up her son - she would be separated from him for fourteen years. But few could match Margaret for her boundless determination and steely courage. Surrounded by enemies and conspiracies in the enemy Yorkist court, Margaret remained steadfast, only just escaping the headman's axes as she Descriptionted to overthrow Richard III in her efforts to secure her son the throne.
Against all odds, in 1485 Henry Tudor was victorious on the battlefield at Bosworth. Through Margaret's royal blood Henry was crowned Henry VII, King of England, and Margaret became the most powerful woman in England - Queen in all but name.
Nicola Tallis's gripping account of Margaret's life, one that saw the final passing of the Middle Ages, is a true thriller, revealing the life of an extraordinarily ambitious and devoted woman who risked everything to ultimately found the Tudor dynasty.

A Guide to Providing LGBTQ+ Inclusive Reproductive Health Care: Pride in Birth by Mari Greenfield, Kate Luxion, El Molloy
English | March 11, 2025 | ISBN: 1032305037 | 262 pages | PDF, EPUB | 6.77 Mb
This evidence-based guide brings together a wide range of information and practical tools for midwives, obstetricians, nurses, health visitors and birthworkers, empowering them to provide safe and compassionate care throughout the reproductive journeys of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ+) people. This book may also be helpful to LGBTQ+ people in their own reproductive journeys.

Throughout history, in cultures around the world, LGBTQ+ people have become pregnant, sought abortion care, miscarried, experienced infertility, given birth, and made decisions about infant feeding. Their reproductive journeys are increasingly visible, reflecting the changing social and legal recognition of sexual and gender minority people as parents. LGBTQ+ people require support during these significant life events which is appropriate, expert, and meets their needs. However, healthcare professionals and birthworkers may not always be confident in working with these clients and may lack understanding of LGBTQ+ clients' experiences. There is also often insufficient attention paid to differences in the LGBTQ+ non-gestational parents' experiences. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this book brings together up-to-date research findings from a range of fields including medicine, psychology, sociology, law and public health, to provide a knowledge base and tools to support clients at different stages of pregnancy and parenthood. The book follows the reproductive journey, moving from pre-conception and fertility research, through pregnancy and birth, to postnatal physical and mental healthcare. It also addresses termination care and perinatal loss.
The chapters contain vignettes to personalise the issues discussed, highlights key practice recommendations, and suggestions for further reading. This is an essential guide for student midwives and medical students, as well as health visitors, midwives and obstetricians in practice.

Stephen Prince, "Apocalypse Cinema "
English | ISBN: 1978819846 | 2021 | 156 pages | PDF | 1036 KB
Vivid images of the apocalypse proliferate throughout contemporary cinema, which pictures the death of civilization in wildly different ways. Some films imagine a future where humanity is wiped out entirely, while others envision humans as an endangered species, enslaved by alien invaders or hunted by zombie hordes.

This book provides a lively overview of apocalypse cinema, including alien invasions, nuclear annihilation, asteroid collisions, climate change, and terrifying plagues. Covering pivotal films from the silent era to the present day, including Metropolis, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Dr. Strangelove, Contagion, and Avengers: Endgame, Stephen Prince explores how these dark visions are rooted in religious and prophetic traditions, and he considers how our love for apocalypse cinema is tied to fundamental existential questions and anxieties that never go out of fashion.

John C. Manning, "Applied Principles of Hydrology, Third Edition"
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1478634197 | PDF | pages: 290 | 107.1 mb
Less than 1% of the Earth's water is available for human use, the average family uses 400 gallons of water daily, and expected population growth means an increase in water use. The study of hydrology how water behaves as it moves through the water cycle is vital to reducing strains on our water supply and infrastructure.

Written for those who want to understand hydrologic principles without a background in mathematics, Manning's basic water science text begins with the physical and chemical attributes that make water a unique substance and proceeds with a step-by-step discussion of the water cycle. Scientific principles are illustrated by real-world examples, while "investigations" sections offer practical suggestions for making measurements and/or interpretations of hydrological variables in the local environment and for applying principles discussed in the text. This well-structured, reader-friendly text benefits not only students in elementary hydrology courses, but also those studying broader areas of natural resources, ecology, geography, and urban planning.

Aristotelian Metaphysics: Essays in Honour of David Charles
by David Bronstein, Thomas Kjeller Johansen
English | 2024 | ISBN: 0198908679 | 420 Pages | True ePUB | 1.18 MB

This volume provides a rich collection of original essays on Aristotle's metaphysics written by sixteen prominent scholars in the field. Honouring the seminal influence of David Charles to philosophical scholarship, it offers fresh interpretations and assessments of Aristotle's thinking in metaphysics and related areas such as philosophy of language, psychology, natural philosophy, and mathematics.
The collection contributes to the recent resurgence of interest in Aristotelian metaphysics, furthering our understanding of Aristotle's seminal contribution to the history of western philosophy. It evaluates key features of Aristotle's metaphysical thinking: his accounts of definition and meaning; his understanding of being and the categories; his models of explanation, causation, and accounts of modality, space, and change. The chapters are written with clarity and attention to the detail of Aristotle's texts but presuppose no knowledge of ancient Greek and can be read with benefit by advanced philosophy students and scholars.

Confronting events in her life and in the mosque between 2009 and 2016, Ansha invites us to make meaning with her, as we sit in her mosque, and engage with her family, spirits, friends, patients, and world.

Atheismus: Fünf Einwände und eine Frage By Schröder, Winfried
2021 | 144 Pages | ISBN: 3787339574 | PDF | 1 MB
Wirft man einen Blick auf die greifbare Literatur zum Atheismus, stellt man rasch eine Lücke fest. Zwar gibt es eine Reihe von ausgezeichneten Darlegungen atheistischer Positionen (Ansgar Beckermann, Norbert Hoerster, John L. Mackie), nicht aber eine Diskussion der gegen den Atheismus erhobenen Einwände. Darunter sind etwa die folgenden: Atheisten könnten die Nichtexistenz Gottes nicht beweisen (verträten also eine dogmatische Position); prominente atheistische Argumente (etwa Russells teapot argument) seien Fehlschläge; die atheistische Weltsicht sei im Lichte neuerer naturwissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse unplausibel; Atheisten bezögen sich auf einen veralteten Gottesbegriff, der nicht mehr der heutigen Theologie entspreche; der Atheismus sei in existenzphilosophischer Perspektive defizitär und mit Verlusten verbunden. Schröder diskutiert diese Einwände mit großer Genauigkeit und kommt zu einem abgewogenen Urteil. Sein Buch leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zu einer noch längst nicht abgeschlossenen Debatte.
