Описание: When South Sudan's war began, the Beatles were playing their first hits and reaching the moon was an astronaut's dream. Half a century later, with millions massacred in Africa's longest war, the continent's biggest country split in two. It was an extraordinary, unprecedented experiment. Many have fought, but South Sudan did the impossible, and won. This is the story of an epic fight for freedom. It is also the story of a nightmare. First Raise a Flag details one of the most dramatic failures in the history of international state-building. three years after independence, South Sudan was lowest ranked in the list of failed states. War returned, worse than ever. Peter Martell has spent over a decade reporting from palaces and battlefields, meeting those who made a country like no other: warlords and spies, missionaries and mercenaries, guerrillas and gunrunners, freedom fighters and war crime fugitives, Hollywood stars and ex-slaves. Under his seasoned foreign correspondent's gaze, he weaves with passion and colour the lively history of the world's newest country. First Raise a Flag is a moving reflection on the meaning of nationalism, the power of hope and the endurance of the human spirit.

Pascual is a marked man lying low. In the 1980s, he was a courier for a network of radical groups that spread terror across Europe in the name of separatism and liberation. That is, until he defected to the Mossad and CIA, selling out his former comrades save one-his old flame, the beautiful Katixa.
Then he vanished along with his new identity into the streets of Barcelona, his childhood home. Sleeping in flophouses and living hand to mouth, Pascual spends his days trying to atone for his sins among the city's teeming alleys and taverns. He keeps a low profile, hiding from old associates looking to exact revenge.
But just when he thinks he's finally shed his past, Katixa bursts back into his life with a suitcase full of cash hijacked from an ETA kidnapping, looking for a one-way ticket out of Spain-with Pascual. His better judgment doesn't stand a chance.
To redeem both their lives, Pascual dusts off his old skills of subterfuge and deceit and goes on the run with Katixa, dodging ETA hitmen and the police in a nerve-wracking headlong race for survival. But nothing is what it seems, and betrayals lurk at every turn. When Pascual realizes that everyone is lying to him, the crying and the dying cannot be far behind.

TWENTY YEARS OFF THE GRID AND HE THOUGHT HE WAS SAFE
Pascual Rose is back-and this time the lives of his wife and son hang in the balance.
Years ago, Rose put his life as a terrorist behind him. He sold out his colleagues for a new identity and low profile in Barcelona. All was quiet until he received a midnight text: Come join us on the terrace. The stakes are high: if he fails, it will cost him his family; if he succeeds, one million euros will buy a lot more than translation piecework will. But the money-laundering scheme involves a nexus of diverted revenues, shell companies and cryptocurrencies, peopled by shadowy benefactors, Russian mobsters, German intelligence agents, and a mysterious woman with a chilling warning: Get out before it's too late. Rose races against time, navigating twists and turns and mortal danger knowing no one can be trusted and nothing is happenstance. Can he uncover who is behind the operation that has the potential to destroy entire governments and global financial markets before he loses everything?

Автор: Martell Jessica Название: Farm to Form: Modernist Literature and Ecologies of Food in the British Empire ISBN: 1948908360 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781948908368 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 45980.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: In this groundbreaking book, Jessica Martell investigates the relationship between industrial food and the emergence of literary modernisms in Britain and Ireland. By the early twentieth century, the industrialization of the British Empire's food system had rendered many traditional farming operations, and attendant agrarian ways of life, obsolete. Weaving insights from modernist studies, food studies, and ecocriticism, Farm to Form contends that industrial food made nature "modernist," a term used as literary scholars understand it stylistically disorienting, unfamiliar, and artificial but also exhilarating, excessive, and above all, new. Martell draws in part upon archives in the United Kingdom but also presents imperial foodways as an extended rehearsal for the current era of industrial food supremacy. She analyzes how pastoral mode, anachronism, fragmentation, and polyvocal narration reflect the power of the literary arts to reckon with, and to resist, the new "modernist ecologies" of the twentieth century.Deeply informed by Martell's extensive knowledge of modern British, Irish, American, and World Literatures, this progressive work positions modernism as central to the study of narratives of resistance against social and environmental degradation. Analyzed works include those of Thomas Hardy, E. M. Forster, Virginia Woolf, Joseph Conrad, George Russell, and James Joyce.In light of climate change, fossil fuel supremacy, nutritional dearth, and other pressing food issues, modernist texts bring to life an era of crisis and anxiety similar to our own. In doing so, Martell summons the past as a way to employ the modernist term of "defamiliarizing" the present so that entrenched perceptions can be challenged. Our current food regime is both new and constantly evolving with the first industrial food trades. Studying earlier cultural responses to them invites us to return to persistent problems with new insights and renewed passion.

Описание: Learning games have long been used in adult education, and are particularly common in business education. This has brought up the question on how to design effective learning games to be continuously readdressed, often to emphasize some particular aspect as key to designing effective, game-based learning. Despite famous game-designer Costikyans characterization of game-design as an art, rather than an engineering discipline, such studies all seem to look for a recipe for unraveling how to design effective learning games. This book discusses topics on game design and developmental research. Some of the topics include game design and development curricula for digital literacies and 21st century learning; the role of metaphors in game-based learning processes; illustrative, iterative, interdisciplinary and design-oriented use of learning games in university teaching; the relationship between game volatility, house edge and prize structure of gambling games and what it tells us about gambling game design; and a gaming system for shoulder rehabilitation.

Описание: Water is one of the most valuable resources on this Earth. Without it, people could not survive. However, we all too often use it like some unlimited resource that will never end. Emerging pressure on water resources from population and economic growth, climate change, pollution, and other challenges has major effects on our social, economic, and environmental safety. Many of our utmost significant aquifers are being over-pumped, affecting pervasive declines in groundwater levels. Sustainable Water Technologies addresses water resources management, sustainability of water resources, ground and surface water quality and quantity, water use and reuse, surface and ground water interaction, aquifer recharge, storage and more. Furthermore, emphasises emerging nanotechnology, biotechnology, and information technology applications as well as sustainable processes and products to protect the environment and human health, save water and energy, and minimise material use. This book intends to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to focus on development of advanced technologies; a critical component in overcoming the looming water crisis. It lays emphasis on emerging technologies and strategies that facilitate water sustainability for future generations. The scope of sustainable management of water resources concerns the responsibility of water managers and users to ensure that water resources are allocated efficiently and equitably and used to achieve socially, environmentally and economically beneficial outcomes. Future policies to address the sustainable management of water resources will be greatly influenced by climate change and climate variability, including seasonality problems, such as changes in the timing of annual rainfall patterns or periods of snow pack melt. Recognition of the complexity and diversity of water resource management is important from a policy perspective, as it means there is no one-size-fits-all policy solution to improving water resource management. Policies addressing water resource management need to be tailored and targeted to situations specific to countries and regions within countries. This reflects the great variety across different water basins from the local to international levels in terms of the: heterogeneity of water sources; linkages between water resource and water pollution issues; allocation of water between consumptive uses, such as agriculture, domestic, industrial, power generation, and to meet environmental needs; and the management of the complex institutional and property right arrangements associated with water. New technologies are promising to transform wastewater into a resource for energy generation and a source of drinking water.
