Описание: The War Within: America's Battle over Vietnam is a painfully engrossing and popularly written account of how the battle on the home front ended America's least popular war. This absorbing narrative, hailed by critics of every persuasion, is the fruit of over a decade's worth of research: the author sifted through mountains of government documents, press coverage, and transcripts of interviews he conducted with virtually all of the key players, both inside the U.S. government and among the dissenters who eventually brought the war to an end. In these pages the antiwar era comes to life through the words of scores of participants, both the famous and the forgotten, who speak with candor and passion about this tumultuous period. A remarkable story of a powerful grassroots movement and its influence on officials in Washington.
Автор: Gordon Noble, Ingo Kumic, Michael Marais, Paul Clement-Hunt Название: Flow: How to open the flow of finance for all ISBN: 1667840606 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781667840604 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 34310.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: "Flow" is a book that examines the core question of: How can financial systems open flow of finance for all? An impediment to delivering sustainable development is that finance is not flowing to everywhere that it is needed. "Flow" unpacks why this is the case, and what we can do about it. This is a book about hope. In the end, the book comes down to a single proposition captured in a single word. Flow. It is the flow of finance to all that ultimately impacts societies and our environment. Flow is the measure by which we understand whether a financial system is serving society. A world where finance does not flow is a world of heightened systemic risks from mass migration of peoples through to unabated climate change. There is a tendency to think that finance is complicated. Books about finance must therefore only be for those that either understand, or want to understand, the intricacies of financial markets. This is not true. Finance at its heart is very simple. Two types of finance - debt and equity - make up the foundations of modern finance. What is complicated is the way that we commonly talk about finance. The approach with this book is to tell the story of the power of finance through narratives. The analogy used throughout the book is that finance is like water. Just as water will find a way to flow to its level, so too can finance-if we allow it to. The core thesis of the book is that just as human intervention created the canals that flowed water to where it was needed in ancient civilizations, there is a need for intervention to support the establishment of "finance canals" that will open a flow of finance for all. The book is focused on solutions. Finance can grow businesses that can improve the standard of living across the globe. Finance can support governments to address some of the most fundamental challenges facing humanity including climate change. Finance can unlock investments that protect, preserve, and regenerate our environment. The changes advocated to open a flow of finance to meet the needs of all are practical and achievable without the need for international treaties or changes to domestic legislation. Flow of finance for all is about creating and maintaining the channels that enable finance to reach every corner of the earth and fulfil every need.

Описание: An unparalleled how-to guide to citizen-sensing practices that monitor air pollution Modern environments are awash with pollutants churning through the air, from toxic gases and intensifying carbon to carcinogenic particles and novel viruses. The effects on our bodies and our planet are perilous. Citizens of Worlds is the first thorough study of the increasingly widespread use of digital technologies to monitor and respond to air pollution. It presents practice-based research on working with communities and making sensor toolkits to detect pollution while examining the political subjects, relations, and worlds these technologies generate. Drawing on data from the Citizen Sense research group, which worked with communities in the United States and the United Kingdom to develop digital-sensor toolkits, Jennifer Gabrys argues that citizen-oriented technologies promise positive change but then collide with entrenched and inequitable power structures. She asks: Who or what constitutes a “citizen” in citizen sensing? How do digital sensing technologies enable or constrain environmental citizenship? Spanning three project areas, this study describes collaborations to monitor air pollution from fracking infrastructure, to document emissions in urban environments, and to create air-quality gardens. As these projects show, how people respond to, care for, and struggle to transform environmental conditions informs the political subjects and collectives they become as they strive for more breathable worlds.
