Epidemiological Research: An Introduction: An Introduction By O. S. Miettinen, I. Karp (auth.)
2012 | 186 Pages | ISBN: 9400745362 | PDF | 2 MB
Having last year published "Up from Clinical Epidemiology & EBM" and also "Epidemiological Research: Terms and Concepts," Miettinen now - this time with collaboration from his junior colleague I. Karp - brings out this further introduction into epidemiological research; and he is now working on an introduction into clinical research, for publication next year. It evidently is Miettinen's felt time to crystallize the basic understandings he has come to as the culmination of a half-century of concentrated effort to advance the theory of epidemiological and 'meta-epidemiological clinical' research.In accord with its title, this book focuses on research to develop the knowledge-base for preventive medicine, which mainly is knowledge about the causal origin -etilogy, etiogenesis - of illness. It first illustrates how wanting this knowledge still is, despite much research; and it then aims to guide the reader to more productive etiogenetic research.This book places much emphasis on the need to assure relevance by principles-guided objects design for the studies, which now remains conspicuously absent from epidemiologists' concerns. And as for methods design, this book exposes the fallacies in the still-common 'cohort' and 'case-control' studies, defines the essentials of all etiogenetic studies, and then addresses the true options for design in this framework of shared essentials.A good deal of attention is also given to the still commonly-held, very major, twin fallacies that screening for an illness is a preventive intervention, to be studied by randomized trials, and that research on it can imply rational guidelines or recommendations regarding decisions about the screening.While Miettinen already is regarded as 'the father of modern epidemiology,' he now appears to have become the father also of post-modern epidemiology, where 'epidemiology' still means epidemiological research.

Erasing History: How Fascists Rewrite the Past to Control the Future by Jason Stanley
English | September 10th, 2024 | ISBN: 1668056917 | 256 pages | True EPUB | 2.75 MB
"I've never read a book that is as timely, urgent and essential as this one. A battle plan for keeping this nation from falling into fascism." -Khalil Gibran Muhammad, author of The Condemnation of Blackness

From the bestselling author of How Fascism Works, a searing confrontation with the far right's efforts to rewrite history and undo a century of progress on race, gender, sexuality, and class.
The human race finds itself again under threat of a rising global fascist movement. In the United States, democracy is under attack by an authoritarian movement that has found fertile ground among the country's conservative politicians and voters, but similar movements have found homes in the hearts and minds of people all across the globe. To understand the shape, form, and stakes of this assault, we must go back to extract lessons from our past.
Democracy requires a common understanding of reality, a shared view of what has happened, that informs ordinary citizens' decisions about what should happen, now and in the future. Authoritarians target this shared understanding, seeking to separate us from our own history to destroy our self-understanding and leave us unmoored, resentful, and confused. By setting us against each other, authoritarians represent themselves as the sole solution.
In authoritarian countries, critical examination of those nations' history and traditions is discouraged if not an outright danger to those who do it. And it is no accident that local and global institutions of education have become a battleground, the authoritarian right's tip of the spear, where learning and efforts to upend a hierarchal status quo can be put to end by coercion and threats of violence. Democracies entrust schools and universities to preserve a common memory of positive change, generated by protests, social movements, and rebellions. The authoritarian right must erase this history, and, along with it, the very practice of critical inquiry that has so often been the engine of future progress.
In Erasing History, Yale professor of philosophy Jason Stanley exposes the true danger of the authoritarian right's attacks on education, identifies their key tactics and funders, and traces their intellectual roots. He illustrates how fears of a fascist future have metastasized, from hypothetical threat to present reality. And he shows that hearts and minds are won in our schools and universities-places, he explains, that democratic societies across the world are now ill-prepared to defend against the fascist assault currently underway.
Deeply informed and urgently needed, Erasing History is a global call to action for those who wish to preserve democracy-in America and abroad-before it is too late.

Erik Satie: Der skeptische Klassiker
Deutsch | 2024 | ISBN: 3662665948 | 718 Pages | PDF (True) | 50 MB
Erik Satie (1866-1925) gilt allgemein als eine Ikone der Moderne. Nach mehreren Jahrzehnten erscheint nun erstmals wieder eine deutschsprachige Gesamtdarstellung seines Lebens und Schaffens. Der auf dem Montmartre sozialisierte Musikpionier war ein Fragender. In skeptischer Absicht schärfte er seinen Humor, um auch seine Zeitgenossen nach sokratischer Manier zu prüfen. Unbefangen stellte er sich nach Art eines Amateurs immer wieder neuen Voraussetzungen. Von den autoritären Zügen der musikalischen Tradition dagegen nahm er Abstand, ohne doch den Anspruch aufzugeben, gelegentlich - in Resonanz mit den anderen Künsten - klassische Modelle vorzulegen. Vom Symbolismus bis zum Dadaismus wirkte er inmitten der Besten, weswegen diese neue Biographie zugleich auch in die Mitte des Pariser Künstlerkosmos eintaucht. Aus dem reichen Journalismus des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts fördert Oliver Vogel eine Vielzahl unbekannter Anekdoten zutage und verdichtet die Stimmen derer, die dabei waren, zu einem lebendigen Konzert.

Escape from Appalachia: Who Will Rescue Me? by Mary Frances Barron
English | May 31st, 2024 | ISBN: 9798990457638 | 398 pages | True EPUB | 11.24 MB
Told through the eyes of a witty, outgoing, and curious little girl, Francie beautifully weaves together personal narratives and historical information about the ever-present American tragedy known as Appalachia. She peels back layers of her early life while walking us through the patches where coal miners and their families once lived, the impact of surviving in a contaminated environment, and the everyday threat of pollution, addiction, toothlessness, chronic depression, and abuse. An area where drugs and alcohol numb the pain of reality.

Francie portrays the mindset and brokenness of the people and the hopelessness that can come from living in isolation and poverty. Her mother would daily herald this mantra, "One day you kids will get out of here."
A delightful story that brings the reader to laughter and tears. It showcases an irrepressible drive to escape the grip of Appalachia on its sons and daughters.
This book shows how a resilient spirit, undervalued, abandoned, and betrayed can be restored.

Renia Kukielka, "Escape from the Pit: A Woman's Resistance in Nazi-occupied Poland, 1939-1943 "
English | ISBN: 1438494777 | 2023 | 200 pages | PDF | 5 MB
At the end of 1944, while World War II was still raging, nineteen-year-old Renia Kukielka published her Hebrew language memoir about the Holocaust. The account may well be the first of its kind. In her powerful and raw story, she portrays life in the ghettos and her three years of wandering in disguise as a Polish Catholic, trying to escape from the German onslaught. She also recounts how she served for almost a year as a courier between ghettos for the Zionist youth movement's underground cell in Bendzin, carrying weapons, money, and messages, until she was arrested by the Gestapo in 1943. She was tortured in a high-security prison, but, after a daring escape, she was able to flee to British Mandate Palestine with other members of the resistance.

Kukielka's memoir manages to combine both immediacy and hindsight. It stands out for its descriptions of life and activities outside of the ghettos and concentration camps in wartime Poland and for its focus on Zionist youth resistance to the Holocaust. It also provides a somewhat rare female perspective on the Holocaust and offers insight into how much was known about the scale of the Nazi atrocities during the war. Following the book's initial publication in Hebrew in 1944, an unauthorized English-language edition was published in the United States in 1947. The present expanded text includes a scholarly introduction, notes, and a historical afterword, which help to explain and contextualize Kukielka's personal account.

Ian Mercer, "Essex Rock: Geology Beneath the Landscape"
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1784272795 | PDF | pages: 660 | 104.1 mb
All landscapes are built on rock: from hard stone for building with, to the softest clay or sand. Each piece of rock is a storehouse of prehistorical information; even a simple pebble from the garden has its own complex tale to tell. Geology is the great detective science that can unlock these secrets. In this entertaining and eye-opening book, the authors take a deep dive - quite literally - into their home county of Essex.

We are all living in an ice age, an ongoing event that has hugely affected Essex over the last 3 million years. Yet this county was born more than 500 million years ago. Our story begins when the land we know as Essex was part of a large continent close to the South Pole, tracing the geological processes that continue to shape the countryside around us. The form of the land, boulders on village greens, road cuttings, cliffs, stones in church walls - they can all bring geology to light in unexpected and fascinating ways.
Aimed at a general readership with no scientific background, chapters progress from fundamentals to intricate details of geological investigations and cutting-edge research. Richly illustrated with photographs and colour diagrams, here the geology of a county is visualised and brought to life as never before, along with pertinent environmental insights in the light of climate change that is happening now.

Lucas Swaine, "Ethical Autonomy: The Rise of Self-Rule"
English | ISBN: 0190087641 | 2020 | 252 pages | PDF | 10 MB
Autonomy is one of the most foundational conditions of liberalism, a political philosophy that prizes individual freedom. Today, we still grapple with autonomy's value and its implications. How important is autonomy for a good life? Should people try to achieve autonomy for themselves? And does autonomy support healthy citizenship in free societies? In Ethical Autonomy, Lucas Swaine offers new and compelling answers to these key philosophical and political questions.

Swaine charts the evolution of autonomy from ancient Greece to modern democratic life. Illuminating the history of the concept and its development within political theory, he focuses on autonomy at its most basic level: personal autonomy. Swaine methodically exposes the dark side of personal autonomy, pinpointing its deficiencies at both theoretical and practical levels. In so doing, he provides a powerful critique of the very idea of personal autonomy, arguing that it is so underspecified and indeterminate that it falls apart. Moreover, Swaine suggests, personally autonomous individuals devolve and degrade their moral agency, often at others' expense, and in many cases with shocking real-world consequences.
Swaine's solution to problems of personal autonomy is to develop a new model of individual-level autonomy, which he calls "ethical autonomy." A form of self-rule integrating moral character and grounded in principles of liberty of conscience, ethical autonomy incorporates restraints on an autonomous individual's imagination, deliberation, and will. It supports the central commitments of liberalism and enhances active and astute forms of democratic citizenship. This novel understanding of autonomy stresses the values of freedom, toleration, respect, individual rights, limited government, and the rightful rule of law.
