Описание: The Music of Gilbert Artman & Urban SaxThe new Eurock book tells a story about music, which became a youthful passion for me very early in life. Officially, Eurock began in 1971 as a radio program featuring Experimental European Rock. What followed was a lifelong adventure into the weird and wonderful world of musical innovation. I had no idea in the beginning that a world filled with far away artists would open up for me and some of the new friends & partners I made all around the globe would still be with me in my 68th year.A trip to Europe in 2015 took me to France. In Paris, I met some of today's most innovative creators of art and music. I saw historic places, met people and experienced a culture that opened my eyes. Outside the small places we inhabit in our daily lives, there exists people filled with a warmth of human spirit & wellspring of creativity that transcends the mindset of self-gratification and absorption present today in my homeland.Previous Eurock books have dealt extensively with the impact of music on culture, its effect and evolution. For this book, I wanted to convey what I experienced on my trip, while at the same time focusing more on a specific topic. The Music of Gilbert Artman & Urban Sax documents the creative journey and music of one of our generation's greatest artists and musical innovators Gilbert Artman.The book is not intended to be an academic history per se, but instead more like a listener's guide exploring his diversity of artistic ideas and concepts as well as chronicling the excellence of his work through its various musical incarnations.I hope it ultimately succeeds in offering readers a perspective about what constitutes a truly experimental creative process. In my mind, it certainly offers ample evidence that Gilbert has been the catalyst for some of the most incredible musical creativity in France, as well as International contemporary music history.

Автор: Lewis Gilbert Название: Pandora`s Box: Ethnography and the Comparison of Medical Belief ISBN: 1912808323 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781912808328 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 33790.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In this book, written between 1979 and 2020, Gilbert Lewis distills a lifetime of insights he garnered as a medical anthropologist. He asks: How do different cultures' beliefs about illness influence patients' abilities to heal? Despite the advances of Western medicine, what can it learn from non-Western societies that consider sickness and curing to be as much a matter of social relationships as biological states? What problems arise when one set of therapeutic practices displaces another? Lewis compares Indigenous medical beliefs in New Guinea in 1968, when villagers were largely self-reliant, and in 1983, after they became dependent on Western medicine. He then widens his comparative scope by turning to West Africa and discussing a therapeutic community run by a prophet who heals the ill through confession and long-term residential care. Pandora's Box began life with the prestigious Lewis Henry Morgan Lectures that Gilbert Lewis delivered in 1979 at the University of Rochester. He expanded them with materials gathered over the next forty years, completing the manuscript a few weeks before his death. Engagingly written, this book will inspire anthropologists, medical professionals, students, and curious readers to look with new eyes at current crises in world health.

The ISIS high command is angry that the hostage operation has failed. They conclude that their main obstacle is the MI6 operative, Estella "Rose" Mathews. Rose and a combined team of British and French Special Forces successfully rescued the six hostages from England, France, and the United States.
After the hostages were successfully rescued, ISIS now plans an attack using their western fighters. Again, these attacks are prevented by western intelligence agencies. ISIS has now moved its attack to the America Homefront. MI6 assigns Rose to the CIA. The CIA, in turn, assigned Rose to work covertly with the American company White Mountain Analytics (WMA). ISIS develops a fool-proof-plan to kill Rose. They have posted a "kill contract" on the darknet to assassinate Rose. The posting of the "kill contract" is answered by Adolf Wolfgang (Wolf) Schneider. Wolf was in the Marines and was given a dishonorable discharge. He blames his being booted from the Marines on a black captain. Wolf grew up in Kentucky with a father who blamed all of his failures on the "blacks." Wolf grew up in an environment of "White Supremacy" thus, him being booted from the Marines only strengthen his hatred for Negros, slant eyes and beaners. Upon being booted from the Marines, Wolf found his way to KKK camps in Montana and Tennessee. Within two years he was the top dog. The KKK camp sells drugs brought in illegally from Mexico. Wolf quickly spreads the KKK enterprise to gun running and prostitution. Wolf's expertise is "sniper" kills. His motto is "One Shot, One Kill." He learned the trade in the Marines.
When Wolf answered the post to kill Rose, he already had completed kills on mafia rats, crooked politicians, and police officers who have not honored their contract to the mafia. So far, he finds it easy money. Each kill brings in an average of $100K. Wolf checks on the darknet monthly for easy kills. His contract to kill Rose is $600K.
The story unfolds as Rose is tipped off that there is a kill contract on her life. Rose and members of WMA determine that the assassin is a member of a White Nationalist camp in Tennessee. The WMA team discovers that the camp is involved in illicit drugs, opioids, gun-running, and forced prostitution. When the prostitutes are no longer needed, they use them in snuff movies. Rose and her team of experienced special operations personnel and the FBI engage in a long siege. As the siege continues, President Trout in his rallies is bad-mouthing the FBI. The crowd surrounding the White Nationalist camp is turning against Rose and the FBI. They must quickly and carefully attack and turn the general public against the tide of support for these domestic terrorists.

Описание: Lewis Carroll's stories of Alice have entranced children - and grown-ups - for nearly 150 years. And more than one reader, turning the last page of "Through the Looking-Glass", must have been saddened by the thought that her adventures had well and truly come to an end. Not so Setting himself the daily task of believing "as many as six impossible things before breakfast" (or at least before lunch), Gilbert Adair has written a delightful successor to Carroll's two immortal fantasies. Here, with the aid of Jenny Thorne's Tenniel-inspired illustrations, you will find characters as nonsensical as any ever encountered by Alice. The Siamese-Twin Cats joined at the tail, the kindly old Grampus and its Auto-Biography, the Welsh Rabbit with its toasted cheese and Worcestershire Sauce and many, many, more. And perhaps you too will gradually discover, as Alice does, the mysterious pattern which shapes the destiny of her dream. "Alice Through the Needle's Eye" is both a literary tour de force and an enchantingly funny tail for children of, as they say, all ages.
