The Fear of Chinese Power An International History

The Fear of Chinese Power: An International History (New Approaches to International History) by Jeffrey Crean
English | January 11, 2024 | ISBN: 1350233951, 1350233943 | True EPUB | 264 pages | 3 MB
The real and potential power of China, the world's most populous nation, has long been seen as a threat by its smaller neighbors and global powers alike. The Fear of Chinese Power provides a history of this perceived threat from the 1880s to the present day, and offers rich historical context to an enduring and current concern.

Focusing on the United States, but also exploring perceptions from Britain, Germany, the Soviet Union and Japan, this book asks why these fears exist and shows how they have played out on both a strategic, diplomatic level, and in the public sphere. Taking a chronological approach, the chapters explore themes such as western opposition to Chinese immigration, international views of China's new republic, hopes of friendship during the rule of Chiang Kai-Shek, the Korean and Cold Wars, Communist China's economic growth, the Chinese in popular culture and China as a modern global power.
Taking economic, military and cultural vantage points into account, The Fear of Chinese Power explains why a powerful China has been a mainstay of the western imagination since the 19th century, and reveals a history which has shaped international perceptions of China to the present day.

The Fear of Witchcraft and Witches in Imperial China Figurines, Familiars and Demons

The Fear of Witchcraft and Witches in Imperial China: Figurines, Familiars and Demons
by Barend Ter Haar
English | 2025 | ISBN: 9004713689 | 490 Pages | PDF | 5.76 MB

In historical surveys of witches and witchcraft, the Chinese case is surprisingly absent. This book intends to fill that gap.
Traditional China had at least two different strands of fear, directed at women and sometimes also men. The fear of witches harming people through figurines remained limited to individual social and personal conflicts, for instance between women competing for the attention of their partner or a carpenter and his customers. There was usually a clear winning party. The fear of witches using animal or demon familiars to harm members of their own community indiscriminately led to social exclusion or worse.

The Feared Conversations with Eleven Political Prisoners

Neeta Kolhatkar, "The Feared: Conversations with Eleven Political Prisoners"
English | ASIN : B0DSMKC3L2 | 2025 | 270 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
"The first night in jail is reputed to be the hardest. After that, you learn how to survive, though many prisoners carry lifelong scars."

The Feared brings together interviews conducted by Neeta Kolhatkar with eleven political prisoners, and in some cases, their loved ones, in which she highlights the interviewees' everyday lives within the walls
of multiple prisons across India. In doing so, she calls urgent attention to the grave injustices meted out to the thousands of undertrials dissent in the political life of India today.
During long discussions, sometimes taking place over multiple meetings, Kolhatkar unearths personal anecdotes from the time her interviewees were incarcerated, bringing into focus the human face of prison inmates, while also detailing the wretched conditions relating to space, hygiene, medical attention, and food that they experienced. Apart from being an urgent call to action for prison reforms,

The Femme Fatale (Quick Takes Movies and Popular Culture)

a27bb57241940963cf7b6a20553800b5.webp

The Femme Fatale (Quick Takes: Movies and Popular Culture) by Julie Grossman
English | September 18, 2020 | ISBN: 0813598257, 0813598249 | True EPUB | 174 pages | 0.1 MB
Ostensibly the villain, but also a model of female power, poise, and intelligence, the femme fatale embodies Hollywood's contradictory attitudes toward ambitious women. But how has the figure of the femme fatale evolved over time, and to what extent have these changes reflected shifting cultural attitudes toward female independence and sexuality?

This book offers readers a concise look at over a century of femmes fatales on both the silver screen and the TV screen. Starting with ethnically exoticized silent film vamps like Theda Bara and Pola Negri, it examines classic film noir femmes fatales like Barbara Stanwyck in Double Indemnity, as well as postmodern revisions of the archetype in films like Basic Instinct and Memento. Finally, it explores how contemporary film and television creators like Fleabag and Killing Eve's Phoebe Waller-Bridge have appropriated the femme fatale in sympathetic and surprising ways.
Analyzing not only the films themselves, but also studio press kits and reviews, The Femme Fatale considers how discourses about the pleasures and dangers of female performance are projected onto the figure of the femme fatale. Ultimately, it is a celebration of how "bad girl" roles have provided some of Hollywood's most talented actresses opportunities to fully express their on-screen charisma.

The Fifth Gospel Matthew, Mark, Luke, John...You

97178b2f1c256f9e610b41b5f6ef467f.webp

The Fifth Gospel: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John...You By Bobby Conway
2014 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 0736958452 | EPUB | 1 MB
"There are five Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John...and the Christian. But most people never read the first four."There are any number of books on how to do evangelism. This book is different―it's an invitation to actually live out the message of the gospel. Jesus's original intention was for ordinary people like you and me to live lives that point others to the only Person who can give them hope for this life as well as the next―to visibly display the Good News of salvation through the Messiah and Redeemer of humankind.But many Christ followers today are either ridden with guilt for not telling others about Jesus or so silent that no one really knows they're a Christian. The Fifth Gospel will help you wrestle with the critical issues involved in living out your faith in front of a watching and sometimes not-so-friendly world.Isn't it time to become a witness for the One you profess to love? Prepare yourself to represent your Savior well and to discover a new way to do evangelism. Get ready for God to unleash the gospel through you!

The Fighting Staff

Dwight C. McLemore - The Fighting Staff
Paladin Press | 2009 | ISBN: 1581607148 | English | 237 pages | PDF | 41.17 MB
In the latest addition to his Fighting Weapons series, Dwight McLemore does for the staff what he did earlier for the Bowie, tomahawk, and sword. The Fighting Staff is a modern illustrated guide to using one of man's oldest weapons. In keeping with his philosophy on fighting weapons, in this workbook McLemore does not attempt to duplicate methods from a specific period in the past. Rather, he offers an eclectic approach that borrows the most effective techniques from Asian and European martial arts throughout history. The Fighting Staff covers such essentials as footwork, grip, strikes, thrusts, blocks, and targeting. But its real value lies in the fighting concepts imparted, which serve as a language for advanced training. As always, your martial arts training is greatly enhanced by McLemore's beautifully executed drawings that take you step-by-step through 25 fighting drills for the martial arts staff. His use of frontal, side and overhead views, as well as his unique "floating staff" perspective, allows you to truly see how your actions correlate with those of your training partner (or opponent), as well as how and where your weapon moves. The training techniques taught in this book are not limited to the staff. They can also be used effectively with other weapons.

The Films of Walter Hill Another Time, Another Place

The Films of Walter Hill: Another Time, Another Place
by Brian Brems
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1666915289 | 297 Pages | True PDF | 5.42 MB

In The Films of Walter Hill: Another Time, Another Place, Brian Brems explores how, as action emerged as a full-fledged genre of cinema, Walter Hill established his position in the genre, first as a screenwriter and then as a director. Hill, Brems argues, helped merge the thematic and stylistic concerns of the Western and film noir into a new action cinema, establishing a reputation for mythic, highly-stylized storytelling driven by a relentless pace. Through analyses of Hill's filmography, this book demonstrates his consistent use of the architecture of classical storytelling to help codify the language of the action movie. These observations are supported by extensive conversations with Walter Hill and several of his on-screen collaborators, including Lance Henriksen, Sigourney Weaver, David Patrick Kelly, James Renmar, and William Sadler. Ultimately, Brems positions Hill as a key American film artist, whose work has inspired countless imitations.

The Finest Gold The Making of an Olympic Swimmer

4632b2471b262c01fe1412ac7a45c893.webp

Brad Cooper, "The Finest Gold: The Making of an Olympic Swimmer"
English | ISBN: 1947534734 | 2019 | 320 pages | AZW3 | 619 KB
A feisty memoir about a life of swimming―and the making of an Olympic gold medallist.

Munich, 1972. In the men's 400-metre freestyle race, America's Rick DeMont beats Australia's Brad Cooper by a hundredth of a second. It's the first electronic timing to deliver a win by such a close margin. The following day, DeMont is stripped of his medal in the world's first swim doping disqualification. Three days later, as the Black September terrorist attack is unfolding on the other side of the Village, Brad is presented with gold in a "farce of firsts". Neither Brad nor the Olympics will ever be the same.
This is a story about a global sporting competition―its glory, ignominy, and industry―but mostly it is the intimate account of the making of an athlete. In poetic, whip-smart prose, we journey from Brad's childhood in 1960s Rockhampton, where his acid-tongued mother feeds a pining for her glamorous ex-pat days by holding Latin nights and smoking Craven 'A', via his parents' vicious split, to an itinerant adolescence with his amnesiac, portent-driven father, where the only constant is the relentless search for training lanes as the pair pinball up and down Australia's east coast, from boarding house to sleep-out. At fifteen, with the Munich Olympics looming, Brad teams up with the legendary and fearsome coach Don Talbot, aka Ming the Merciless; his career is about to step into overdrive with two world records and an Olympic gold medal, but it would take the rest of his life to work out what it all meant.

The First King of Hollywood The Life of Douglas Fairbanks

Tracey Goessel, "The First King of Hollywood: The Life of Douglas Fairbanks"
English | ISBN: 1613738943 | 2018 | 560 pages | AZW3 | 14 MB
Douglas Fairbanks was the greatest leading man of his generation-the first and the best of the swashbucklers. He made some of the greatest films of the silent era, including The Thief of Bagdad, Robin Hood, and The Mark of Zorro. With Charlie Chaplin, D. W. Griffith, and his wife, film star Mary Pickford, he founded United Artists. Pickford and Fairbanks ruled Hollywood as its first king and queen for a decade. Now a cache of newly discovered love letters from Fairbanks to Pickford form the centerpiece of the first truly definitive biography of Hollywood's first king, the man who did his own stunts, built his own studio, and formed a company that allowed artists to distribute their own wealth outside the studio system. Fairbanks was fun, witty, engaging, creative, athletic, and a force to be reckoned with. He shaped our idea of the Hollywood hero, and his story, like his movies, is full of passion, bravado, and romance.

The Flexibility Paradigm Humanizing the Workplace for Productivity, Profitability,...

The Flexibility Paradigm: Humanizing the Workplace for Productivity, Profitability, and Possibility
by Manar Sweillam Morales
English | 2025 | ISBN: 1647125308 | 256 Pages | True ePUB | 0.44 MB

A strategic framework for businesses leaders who are grappling with the backlash against the post-pandemic "return to office" demonstrates the strong case for holistic flexibility
Forced to allow remote and hybrid work arrangements during the onset of COVID-19, some organizations made the transition to flexibility with great success, but others floundered because they failed to integrate diversity and flexibility policies throughout their culture. This book shows how to build practices that maximize the potential of every work environment, whether hybrid or not, for connection, collaboration, communication, and contribution.
The Flexibility Paradigm posits that in order to create the return on experience required for flexibility, leaders and managers need to shift their perspective and recognize flexibility as a way to strengthen their organization. Hybrid work is just one part of holistic flexibility, whereby people have options for not just where they work but also how long they work and when they work. Formerly misperceived as a "women's issue," flexibility is now seen to benefit all employees; therefore, it must be degendered, deparented, and destigmatized.
This book presents the strategy and framework needed by professional services firms and other organizations to create an entire culture that allows their organization to build on their strengths and lead the future of work. Leaders will learn that flexibility has a strong business case: it drives productivity, talent, diversity, engagement, sustainability, and ultimately profitability.

The Flying Man Otto Lilienthal-History, Flights and Photographs

50ba22c2d3b0bdf1ad67ea383520b617.webp

The Flying Man: Otto Lilienthal-History, Flights and Photographs by Markus Raffel
English | EPUB(True) | 2022 | 352 Pages | ISBN : 3030950328 | 218.4 MB
"Of all the men who attacked the flying problem in the 19th century, Otto Lilienthal was easily the most important. His greatness appeared in every phase of the problem. No one equaled him in power to draw new recruits to the cause; no one equaled him in fullness and dearness of understanding of the principles of flight; no one did so much to convince the world of the advantages of curved wing surfaces; and no one did so much to transfer the problem of human flight to the open air where it belonged."

These words were spoken by Wilbur Wright, who successfully accomplished the first powered flight together with his brother Orville in 1903 on the sand dunes of the Outer Banks off the coast of North Carolina. Wilbur was talking about the most important of their predecessors, Otto Lilienthal.
Lilienthal attracted worldwide attention due to the spectacular photographs showing him in flight, made possible by technology that had only just been developed by him. This fortuitous union between a pioneer of aviation and the pioneers of so-called "instantaneous photography" is responsible for the immense contemporary popularity of Lilienthal's flights around the globe, the first ever free flights performed by man. This book traces the life of the German aviation pioneer, focusing on the designs of his many aircraft and the photographic documentation that has survived. The presentation ends with a remarkable research project conducted by one of the authors, right up to and including his own training exercises with Lilienthal's "normal soaring apparatus" and "large biplane". This project offered new insight into Lilienthal's work, and also led to a spectacular aerial meeting of Lilienthal's 1895 biplane and the Wright brothers' 1902 biplane at a historic location on the Outer Banks. The book provides access to video material, largely stemming from this project.

Ghulam Shams-Ur-Rehman, "The Foundations of Sufism: An Annotated Translation of Qawāʿid Al-Taṣawwuf by Shaykh Aḥmad Zarrūq Al-Fāsī (D. 899/1493) "
English | ISBN: 9004540083 | 2024 | 248 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Ahmad Zarruq, a 15th-century North African Sufi, turned his considerable intellect towards integrating theology, Islamic law and the spiritual path. His model of a jurisprudentially-grounded Sufism is as relevant today as when he presented it to a mediaeval audience, using an aphoristic style tailored to his educated readership. The current growth of puritanical movements in the Islamic world makes Zarruq's The Foundations of Sufism a must-read for scholars, educators and those seeking to reconcile various interpretations of the faith. The author of this fresh translation, an Arabic and Classical Sufism scholar, consulted newly-discovered manuscripts in preparing his critical edition of this seminal work.

The Four A Survey of the Gospels

The Four: A Survey of the Gospels By Peter J. Leithart
2010 | 252 Pages | ISBN: 159128080X | EPUB | 1 MB
How do the four different Gospels teach us different things about Jesus? Leithart dives into the differences between the different books and shows how their differences can be gloried in rather than apologized for.In his sequel to the Canon Press bestseller A House for My Name, Peter Leithart dives deep into the fascinating web woven by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Writing as a scholar and a pastor, Leithart rejects much of modern textual criticism, but gleans from the best of it to show how radically political Jesus' message actually was. The book includes a chapter on the themes highlighted in each individual gospel, showing that Jesus is revealed as a Lawgiver, as a king, as a Prophet, and the Son of God.This book is accessible to high school students and includes review questions for anyone who wants to use it in their curriculum. However, it will also give anyone familiar with the Gospels much to think about.
