Henry Ford's Own Story How a farmer boy rose to the power that goes with many millions, yet never lost touch with humanity【電子書籍】[ Rose Wilder Lane ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Henry Ford's Own Story," Rose Wilder Lane presents an incisive exploration of the titan of American industry, capturing not only the life of Henry Ford but also his revolutionary contributions to modern manufacturing and the American economy. Written in an accessible and engaging style, this work intertwines anecdotes, reflections, and insightful commentary, allowing readers to understand Ford's philosophy and methods. Lane'??s narrative is steeped in the early 20th-century context, reflecting the burgeoning industrial age, while also delving into Ford's personal and professional challenges, from pioneering the assembly line to his controversial views on society and labor. Rose Wilder Lane, a prominent figure in American literature and a key proponent of individualism and libertarian principles, was deeply influenced by her upbringing and experiences in a pioneering family. As a writer and scriptwriter, her career was shaped by her encounters with leading figures of her time, including Ford. This background not only enriched her understanding of American culture but also informed her portrayal of Ford's philosophies and contributions, providing readers with a nuanced perspective on one of the most impactful figures in American history. I highly recommend "Henry Ford's Own Story" to anyone interested in the intersection of industry, biography, and the American narrative. Lane's work is not merely a recounting of Ford's achievements but also an insightful commentary on the values and challenges of the era. Through her eloquent prose, readers will gain a deeper appreciation for Ford's legacy and its relevance in today's world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

The Breadth, Freeness, and Yet Exclusiveness of the Gospel Exploring the Universal Salvation and Divine Exclusivity of the Gospel【電子書籍】[ Edward Hoare ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Breadth, Freeness, and Yet Exclusiveness of the Gospel," Edward Hoare presents a nuanced exploration of Christian theology, weaving together scripture, historical context, and personal reflection. The work grapples with the paradoxical nature of the Gospel's message, asserting its all-encompassing reach while simultaneously upholding specific tenets of faith. Hoare'??s literary style is marked by clarity and precision, engaging readers with a blend of doctrinal rigor and heartfelt conviction, reflective of 19th-century religious discourse. Edward Hoare, a pivotal figure in the revivalist movement, brings to this work a wealth of pastoral experience and theological insight, having witnessed firsthand the transformative power of the Gospel in diverse communities. His reflection on the Gospel'??s dual nature stems from both his own spiritual journey and the broader ecclesiastical debates of his time, as he sought to reconcile inclusivity with fidelity to doctrine. Hoare's profound faith and pastoral concern drive him to address the complexities of belief, making his arguments resonate with urgency and relevance. This book is essential for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Christian doctrine and its implications for faith practice. Hoare'??s masterful exposition invites readers to reflect not only on the doctrinal foundations of Christianity but also on its practical applications in a multifaceted world. A thought-provoking read, it is sure to inspire both intellectual engagement and spiritual renewal.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円

This work reflects the anxieties and aspirations of a society deeply invested in maintaining an image of civility and respectability, possibly influenced by the author'??s own experiences navigating the complexities of social engagement. Readers seeking to enhance their understanding of social conventions or wishing to navigate contemporary social situations with more grace will find this book invaluable.

Japan Unmasked The Character & Culture of the Japanese【電子書籍】[ Boye Lafayette De Mente ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The growing globalization of world business, culture and communicationーand Japan's increasingly important role as a leader in that worldーmakes understanding Japanese culture critical for business people, diplomats, students, educators and anyone else with an interest in Japan.</p> <p>Westerners have recognizedーand analyzedーthe many unique aspects of Japanese culture since they first set foot in Japan in the 16th century. The special talents (and weaknesses) that characterize the Japanese way of life are by now well-documented. But few Westerners really understand the beliefs and values that underlie how the Japanese think and act, how and why these attributes have been preserved in Japanese culture from ancient times through the modern day, or the critical role they play in today's Japanese society.</p> <p>In <em>Japan Unmasked</em> veteran Japanologist and author Boye Lafayette De Mente explores the social, cultural, and psychological characteristics responsible for the unique nature of modern-day Japanese cultureー the real "face" behind the "mask"ーand demonstrates how they have brought the Japanese to their central role on the world stage.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 650円

The Book of Formation or Sepher Yetzirah Attributed to Rabbi Akiba Ben Joseph【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>The Sepher Yetzirah</em>, or <em>Book of Formation</em>, although very short, is probably the most important of the Kabalistic texts. Its secrets were passed on in the Hebrew oral tradition until it was written down in the 2nd century b.c.e. It lays out the principles of Kabalistic cosmology and the Tree of Life, how humankind (the microcosm) reflects the Divine (the macrocosm). It also sets forth the Hebrew doctrine of Logos--the creation of the world in numbers, letters, and sound. As such, it is a seminal text for all serious magicians.</p> <p>Stenring has made a word-for-word translation from several texts, choosing only those parts which he believed to be authentic. He reveals the text's secrets in his diagrams, tables, and extensive notes. His "Master Key to the Theoretical and Practical Kabala" is a diagram of the correspondences between the English and Hebrew alphabets and is not found in other translations of the <em>Sepher Yetzirah</em>. Also unique in this translation is Stenring's assignment of certain tarot cards to the paths on the Tree of Life. Several authors have done this before, but Stenring asserts that he arrived at his correspondences on his own.</p> <p>The introduction by Waite surveys the historical background of the <em>Sepher Yetzirah</em> translations and the import of this foundational Kabbalistic text.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,786円

文化的困境:20世紀的民族誌、文學與藝術 The Predicament of Culture: 20th-Century Ethnography, Literature and Art【電子書籍】[ セン姆士?克里弗徳 ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>誰擁有替一個族群發聲的權力?<br /> 什麼是一個文化的「本真性」?<br /> 「文化」差異不僅是本質的問題,更關乎權力與修辭。<br /> 1977年秋天,美國波士頓聯邦法庭,一群住在梅斯皮「鱈魚角的印地安城鎮」的萬?諾格(Wampanoag)印地安人後裔,為了拾回祖先失去的土地,被要求在法庭上證明他們的族群身分。這群在現代被標記為麻州公民的美國原住民,被要求證明他們的部落自17世紀起便已存在,並持續生活在這塊土地上。然而,這群印地安人的生活早已與普利茅斯港上岸的英國清教徒、麻州?著當地方言的居民,甚至其他美國原住民混合,?生極大的改變。<br /> 20世紀這群站在法庭上的原住民,是否仍是17世紀同樣的印地安人?或者我們該問的是,當?及權利/力時,究竟該如何表達、或是突顯所謂的族群特??法庭上,除了印地安人和共同生活的白人,?史學家、人類學家以及社會學家,也以專家學者的身分出庭作證。「部落」、「文化」、「身分」、「同化」、「族群」、「政治」以及「社群」等概念都同時被擺上法庭接受審理。<br /> ++++<br /> 1930年代,由美國洛克菲勒基金會贊助的「非洲研究」,在當時倫敦政經學院人類學系系主任馬凌諾斯基的主導下,建制了這門學科自身知識體系的實踐方式。自此之後,所有人類學研究者都被要求經過「田野工作」這種儀式般洗禮方能獲得專業上的肯認:人類學家抱持文化相對主義立場「置身田野現場」,從而獲得話語的職權,獲得「在地者觀點」的發言人身分,闡述一個深信未受其他文明?染的部落本眞性以及後續的「拯救」任務。<br /> 然而,這種研究方式也同時反映了這門學科始終存在的憂慮:面對科學有效性指標的擔憂,以及殖民主義在倫理道徳上的芥蒂。1980年代,美國詮釋人類學將單向的「在地者觀點」推展至在地者與人類學家雙向共塑的「地方知識」,使得這種「追求本眞性」的科學式命題獲得解?。民族誌書寫不再是單純的記?謄寫,而成為一項「編寫」(fiction)的文本。「民族誌眞實」僅是部分的眞實,同時彰顯了權力在不斷變化的世界中持續給出的矛盾。</p> <p>什麼才是一個族群或是文化足以識別的「本真性」?(誰又擁有權威對此發言?)<br /> 在這個既強調多元差異又移居混同的時代,「我們」和「他們」的界線為何?<br /> 文化工作者憂心所謂「傳統」消失,但什麼是「傳統」??<br /> 人類學者試圖從「在地」推向普世,是可能的??<br /> 這些討論都?及文化的詮釋模式、群體的共識、距離的形態,以及?史發展的不同故事。顯而易見,這不僅是文化議題,而是具有政治與法律性爭議以及?史過程的討論。<br /> +++++<br /> 本書分為「話語」、「移轉」、「收藏」與「諸多?史」四個部分。第一部分「話語」聚焦於書寫與再現的策略,試圖表明民族誌文本是在充滿政治主導情境中的多聲交流的編排(orchestrations),呈現民族誌職權(ethnographic authority)的?史轉向與書寫中見證和記?的現身;第二部分「移轉」描繪民族誌研究與前衛藝術和文化批判的結盟,第三部分「收藏」轉向收藏的?史,所謂「異國情調」如今近在咫尺,界線難分;第四部分則試圖以非西方?史經驗展現現代性議題ーー屬於「東方」和美國原住民「部落」的經驗,是如何讓集體身分成為一種混雜且互相關聯的創造過程。<br /> 在一個相互關聯的世界中,人們總是若干程度上顯得「不?本真」(inauthentic),因為在全球權力體系下,話語是透過相互關係加以發展的,一個文化或傳統的連續性中,不可能只有差異或獨特性。因此,身分是關聯性的,而非本質性的。「文化」不再是穩定的異國情調般的差異,自我ー他者的各種關係不是本質上的,是權力和修辭的問題。<br /> 因此,誰擁有替一個族群發聲的權力?</p> <p>==========<br /> 【人類學反思三部曲】<br /> 《文化的困境》、《路徑》、《復返》是一系列持續的反思,以及對時代變遷的回應。<br /> 這三部作品試圖討論當代原民社群在世界主義與全球現代性的過程中所?及有關現代跨國活動、殖民經驗、政治記憶與文化身分等議題,並且透過實用主義手段與全球化勢力,周旋於各種不同的資本主義和特定的國家霸權。<br /> 克里弗徳延續《書寫文化》(Writing Culture)中「部分眞實」觀點,提出「諸多?史」(histories)作為貫穿整個三部曲的核心思想ーー在《文化的困境》裡反駁文化「非存即亡」的有機論述;在《路徑》裡闡述羅斯堡的諸多過往;在《復返》裡賦予「偶然性銜接」的?史辯證。<br /> 因此,當代的原民文化復振從來不是一個從「殖民壓迫」朝向「解放獨立」的簡單過程,而是在「殖民/解殖/後殖民」轉換的不確定關係中的各式接觸、交換、抵抗和衝突。在這種民族誌現實主義之下,我們終會領悟到原民文物復返運動與博物館收藏正義,有頼於殖民?史與後殖民原民主張的彼此協商與合作。</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,418円

<p>In "Peonage," Lafayette M. Hershaw delves into the haunting realities of forced labor practices prevalent in the post-Civil War South, a time marked by economic desperation and social upheaval.

The Courage to Change Saying Goodbye to Good Enough and Embracing the Promise of What Can Be【電子書籍】[ Joyce Meyer ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Change is inevitable. And sometimes it’s confusing and difficult, even when it’s good. We can’t keep change from coming, but we can allow it to transform us rather than derail us by facing it and embracing it through the lens of God’s unchanging promises to us.</strong></p> <p>We’ve all heard the saying, “The only constant is change.” Sometimes the changes we face, both expected and unexpected, can make our lives feel ungrounded and unsteady. And when we react to change with fear, an opportunity for growth can turn into overwhelming anxiety that locks us into situations, relationships, and ways of thinking and being that prevent us from living in the fullness of who we truly are in Christ.</p> <p>Beloved Bible teacher and <em>#1 New York Times</em> bestselling author Joyce Meyer wants us to know that even when we feel like the ground beneath our feet is shifting, we can stand firm on the promise of God’s Word that He will see us through. With her signature insight and timeless wisdom, Joyce shows us how to align our emotional reactions to changes with the truth of God’s promise that He will work all changes for good in our lives, even the most painful and difficult ones. In <em><strong>The******Courage to Change</strong></em>, you will learn how to:</p> <ul> <li>Embrace change as a necessary part of growth</li> <li>Replace a mindset of fear with a mindset of opportunity</li> <li>And live fully within the uncertainty of change while maintaining peace.</li> </ul> <p>We will all face changes again and again throughout our lifetimes. We don’t have to live dreading the challenges that these changes bring. We can equip ourselves to become people of bravery, optimism, and hope in an ever-changing world, because we have God’s assurance that His character and His promises will never change.</p> <p>Become a change warrior and embrace the courage to change.</p> <p><em>The Courage to Change</em> also contains study questions at the end of each chapter for individual or group reflection.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,954円

The Warrior, Military Ethics and Contemporary Warfare Achilles Goes Asymmetrical【電子書籍】[ Pauline M. Kaurin ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>When it comes to thinking about war and warriors, first there was Achilles, and then the rest followed. The choice of the term warrior is an important one for this discussion. While there has been extensive discussion on what counts as military professionalism, that is what makes a soldier, sailor or other military personnel a professional, the warrior archetype (varied for the various roles and service branches) still holds sway in the military self-conception, rooted as it is in the more existential notions of war, honor and meaning. In this volume, Kaurin uses Achilles as a touch stone for discussing the warrior, military ethics and the aspects of contemporary warfare that go by the name of 'asymmetrical war.' The title of the book cuts two ways-Achilles as a warrior archetype to help us think through the moral implications and challenges posed by asymmetrical warfare, but also as an archetype of our adversaries to help us think about asymmetric opponents.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,279円

Etiquette Guide to Japan Know the rules that make the difference!【電子書籍】[ Boye Lafayette De Mente ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Farewell to faux pas!</strong></p> <p>Minding your manners is an acquired skill, but what serves you well elsewhere could trip you up in Japan. Save yourself possible embarrassment with <em>Etiquette Guide to Japan</em>. An inside look at Japanese social graces, it answers all the questions of the thoughtful traveler. Extensive, specific information on Japanese business etiquette assists readers traveling to Japan for business.</p> <p>Although often overshadowed by a modern facade, long-standing traditional aspects of Japan's culture still influence the country and almost everyone in it. Concrete evidence of this traditional culture can be seen everywhereーin the ancient arts and crafts that are still important parts of everyday life, in the many shrines and temples that dot the nation, and in the modern comeback of traditional fashions such as kimono and yakata robes.</p> <p>To many Western visitors, however, the most obvious example of this traditional culture's strength is the unique etiquette of the Japanese. Like many nations, Japan has experienced vast political, social, and economic change over the past century. But enough of Japan's traditional etiquette remains to set the Japanese apart socially and psychologically and to make success in socializing and doing business with them a special challenge for Westerners.</p> <p><strong>About this new version:</strong><br /> This updated and expanded edition of the best-selling Japanese etiquette guide addresses not just the puzzling protocols relating to name cards, bowing or shaking hands, bathrooms and public bathsーbut also what to do when entertaining Japanese dinner guests, attending a Japanese tea ceremony, taking the subway, and much more! It also provides the latest etiquette in mobile phone manners, texting, social media and other forms of digital communication.</p> <p>The glossary at the back of the book has been revised to include the latest technology-related words and expressions used by Japanese today. Two new chapters address the changing role of foreigners in the workplace and the contemporary business style and etiquette used by the younger generation of Japanese who are now increasingly cosmopolitanーbut still very Japanese!</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,427円

<p>Exploring potential scenarios of artificial intelligence regulation which prevent automated reality harming individual human rights or social values, this book reviews current debates surrounding AI regulation in the context of the emerging risks and accountabilities. Considering varying regulatory methodologies, it focuses mostly on EU’s regulation in light of the comprehensive policy making process taking place at the supranational level.</p> <p>Taking an ethics and humancentric approach towards artificial intelligence as the bedrock of future laws in this field, it analyses the relations between fundamental rights impacted by the development of artificial intelligence and ethical standards governing it. It contains a detailed and critical analysis of the EU’s Ethic Guidelines for Trustworthy AI, pointing at its practical applicability by the interested parties. Attempting to identify the most transparent and efficient regulatory tools that can assure social trust towards AI technologies, the book provides an overview of horizontal and sectoral regulatory approaches, as well as legally binding measures stemming from industries’ self-regulations and internal policies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,953円

The Ghetto A Very Short Introduction【電子書籍】[ Bryan Cheyette ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>For three hundred years the ghetto defined Jewish culture in the late medieval and early modern period in Western Europe. In the nineteenth-century it was a free-floating concept which travelled to Eastern Europe and the United States. Eastern European “ghettos”, which enabled genocide, were crudely rehabilitated by the Nazis during World War Two as if they were part of a benign medieval tradition. In the United States, the word ghetto was routinely applied to endemic black ghettoization which has lasted from 1920 until the present. Outside of America “the ghetto” has been universalized as the incarnation of class difference, or colonialism, or apartheid, and has been applied to segregated cities and countries throughout the world. In this <em>Very Short Introduction</em> Bryan Cheyette unpicks the extraordinarily complex layers of contrasting meanings that have accrued over five hundred years to ghettos, considering their different settings across the globe. He considers core questions of why and when urban, racial, and colonial ghettos have appeared, and who they contain. Exploring their various identities, he shows how different ghettos interrelate, or are contrasted, across time and space, or even in the same place. ABOUT THE SERIES: The <em>Very Short Introductions</em> series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 663円

Making the Military Moral Contemporary Challenges and Responses in Military Ethics Education【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book offers a critical analysis, both theoretical and practical, of ethics education in the military.</p> <p>In the twenty-first century, it has become increasingly important to ensure that the armed forces of Western and other democracies fight justly and behave ethically. The ‘good soldier’ has to be not only professionally skilled but morally intelligent. At a time of relentless media scrutiny, the publicising of incidents of morally and legally unacceptable behaviour, such as the gross mistreatment of prisoners and the torture of suspected terrorists, can do much to undermine the credibility of those who claim to hold the moral high ground in any particular conflict. Written by an international team of academic theorists and military practitioners, this volume provides inter-disciplinary insights into the present state, and the future, of ethics education in the militaries of Western democracies. The contributors critically address the central question of whether such education is sufficient to prepare members of the armed forces to face the peculiar challenges of conflict environments that are now primarily ‘wars among the people’, in which the opposing combatants may have little or no regard for human life and fail to discriminate between soldiers and civilians when choosing their targets. Drawing lessons from recent examples of unethical conduct, this original book offers insightful and constructive advice, both theoretical and practical, as to how situations can be improved and on the means that could and should be employed towards this end.</p> <p>This book will be of much interest to students of military studies, ethics and international relations.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,116円
