Описание: A riveting, adrenaline-fueled tour of a vast, lawless and rampantly criminal world that few have ever seen: the high seas. There are few remaining frontiers on our planet. But perhaps the wildest, and least understood, are the world's oceans: too big to police, and under no clear international authority, these immense regions of treacherous water play host to rampant criminality and exploitation. Traffickers and smugglers, pirates and mercenaries, wreck thieves and repo men, vigilante conservationists and elusive poachers, seabound abortion providers, clandestine oil-dumpers, shackled slaves and cast-adrift stowaways -- drawing on five years of perilous and intrepid reporting, often hundreds of miles from shore, Ian Urbina introduces us to the inhabitants of this hidden world. Through their stories of astonishing courage and brutality, survival and tragedy, he uncovers a globe-spanning network of crime and exploitation that emanates from the fishing, oil and shipping industries, and on which the world's economies rely. Both a gripping adventure story and a stunning expos , this unique work of reportage brings fully into view for the first time the disturbing reality of a floating world that connects us all, a place where anyone can do anything because no one is watching.

Описание: A riveting, adrenaline-fueled journey through some of the most dangerous regions of the earth--the high seas, where lawlessness and physical risk prevail. There are few remaining frontiers on our planet. Perhaps the wildest, and least understood, are the world's oceans: too big to police, and with no clear international authority, the oceans have become the setting for rampant criminality--from human trafficking and slavery to environmental crimes and piracy. Now, in The Outlaw Ocean, Ian Urbina--prize-winning reporter for The New York Times--gives us a galvanizing account of the several years he spent exploring and investigating the high seas, the industries that make use of it, and the people who make their--often criminal--living on it. He traveled on fishing boats and freighters, visited port towns and hidden outposts. He witnessed both environmental vigilantes and transgressors in action and faced a near-mutiny aboard a police ship conveying him to a meeting point miles from the coast. He describes pursuing employment agencies and shipowners to hold them accountable for labor abuses and traveling with a maritime repo man. Combining high drama, an investigative reporter's eye for detail, and a commitment to social justice, The Outlaw Ocean is both a gripping adventure story and a stunning expos of some of the most disturbing realities that lie behind fishing, shipping, and, in turn, the entire global economy.

Описание: Aligning Grammars: Basque and Romance is a collection of articles describing and analyzing several of the most important morphosyntactic features for which the formal comparison between Basque and its surrounding Romance languages is relevant, such as word order, inflection, case, argument structure and causatives. In the context of a language virtually all of whose speakers are bilingual in either Spanish or French, the theoretically informed in-depth description offered in this volume focuses on the fine grain of linguistic structures from languages typologically quite apart but coexisting and probably interacting in the minds of speakers. It therefore aims at shedding some light on the types of interactions between different systems and on the systems themselves.

Описание: El tema del libro es la segunda venida de Cristo, acerca de esto han escrito mucho, la diferencia esta en que no es un libro escrito desde el punto de vista tradicional sino contempor neo. Lo tradicional realmente aporta muy poco conocimiento al publico en general; sea cristiano o no lo sea, pero lo contempor neo es otra cosa, porque tiene que ver con el aspecto pragm tico de la vida en este mundo que cada d a nos plantea nuevos desaf os que afrontar, y como hacerlo sin dejar de ser cristiano y seguir manteniendo la fe en quien uno a cre do. La obra esta basada en cinco se ales b sicas: La Iglesia cristiana, la gran crisis econ mica global, el cambio clim tico, la naci n de Israel y los tiempos actuales a la luz de la Biblia. El porque de estos sucesos que hoy en d a sacuden el mundo. Estos est n ntimamente relacionados con otro gran suceso que esta por venir profetizado en las sagradas escrituras sin poner fechas, o lugares ni d a ni a o, sino mencionando tan solamente las se ales que nos indican que ese gran acontecimiento esta a las puertas.
