 30,000 Locked Out: The Great Strike of the Building Trades in Chicago【電子書籍】[ James C. Beeks ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞"Locked Out: The Great Strike of the Building Trades in Chicago" by James C. Beeks delves into a pivotal moment in labor history, focusing on the massive strike that shook the building trades in Chicago. Beeks meticulously chronicles the events leading up to the strike, highlighting the struggles of workers seeking better wages and working conditions. Through vivid storytelling and thorough research, the author brings to life the voices of the laborers, their unions, and the challenges they faced against powerful construction interests in a rapidly industrializing city.***The book not only examines the immediate impact of the strike on the workers and their families but also explores the broader implications for labor movements across the United States. Beeks provides a nuanced analysis of the political and social climate of the time, illustrating how this strike was a reflection of the larger fight for workers' rights. By weaving together personal narratives and historical context, "Locked Out" serves as both a compelling narrative and an important scholarly work that sheds light on the ongoing struggles within the labor movement.＜/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。 | 157円 |

Wie eine Oase im Herzen der Gro?stadt verstr?mt die elegante Londoner Wohnanlage das Gef?hl von Behaglichkeit und Sicherheit. Bis zu jenem Tag, als Richard Glead, einer der Bewohner, erschossen in seiner K?che aufgefunden wird.

 Strolling Down the Streets of Old Rangoon: The History and the Buildings【電子書籍】[ Jonathan Copeland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞I first went to Rangoon in 1981. It was called Rangoon then before the military government changed the name to Yangon in 1989. They also changed the name of the country to Myanmar, but most people preferred to use the old, poetic, evocative names, partly to make a political statement.＜br /＞ I was immediately struck by the time warp that the city was languishing in. Old-fashioned limousines cruised around the city. Old British fire engines languidly poked out from the old British Fire Station. It was as if time had stopped still at the very moment that the British had sailed away in 1948.＜br /＞ Since then I have become even more enchanted, but even more concerned by the endangered condition of the colonial buildings. Hence I determined to photograph thirty-five of my favourites and place them in their historical context, because each one of them has a fascinating story to tell and is best understood and appreciated as a milestone in the history of Rangoon.＜/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。 | 449円 |

 Future Days Krautrock and the Building of Modern Germany【電子書籍】[ David Stubbs ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞West Germany following the Second World War was a country in shock: estranged from its recent history, and adrift from the rest of Europe. But this disorientating landscape proved fertile ground for a generation of musicians who, from the 1960s onwards, would develop the experimental and various sounds that became known as Krautrock.＜br /＞ Eschewing the Anglo-American jazz/blues tradition, they took their inspiration from elsewhere: the mysticism of the East; the fractured classicism of Stockhausen; the pneumatic repetition of industry and the dense forests of the Rhineland; the endless winding of Autobahns.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Faust, Neu!, Cluster, Ash Ra Tempel, Amon D??l II, Can and Kraftwerk. These may not all be household names, but the influence of their ruminative, expansive compositions upon Western popular music is incalculable. These groups were key to the development of postpunk, electronica and ambient music. Without them Bowie would not have made his Berlin trilogy, Talking Heads would have been a straight-ahead rock band, and the Pet Shop Boys would have a completely different stage act.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Future Days＜/em＞ is an in-depth study of this meditative, sometimes abstract, often very beautiful music and the groups that made it, throwing light on the social and political context that informed them. It's an indispensable book for those wanting to understand how much of today's music came about, and to discover a wealth of highly influential and pioneering musicians.＜/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。 | 2,080円 |
 The Life of John Marshall Volume 4: The building of the nation 1815-1835【電子書籍】[ Albert J. Beveridge ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Beveridge explores Marshall’s profound influence through cases like McCulloch v. Maryland (1819), where the Supreme Court upheld the federal government’s implied powers by ruling that states could not tax federal institutions, affirming the broad scope of national power. Another key case, Gibbons v. Ogden (1824), further defined federal authority, particularly in regulating interstate commerce, a decision crucial to economic development and national unity.Throughout the volume, Beveridge demonstrates how Marshall’s decisions, guided by a vision of a strong federal government, were instrumental in "building the nation." His rulings consistently protected the integrity of the Constitution, secured the supremacy of federal law, and laid the foundation for the evolving American legal and economic systems. By the time of his death in 1835, Marshall had transformed the Supreme Court into a powerful institution that would continue to guide the country's growth.＜/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。 | 161円 |

 The Building of Civil Europe 1951?1972【電子書籍】[ Stefanie Pukallus ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book argues that early European Commission officials envisaged an integrated civil Europe from the outset. Largely overlooked is the fact that between 1951 and 1972 there was a group of European Commission (and before that the High Authority) officials who wished to build a Civil Europe to sit alongside an economic and political Europe. This Civil Europe was, it was hoped, to become home to a European citizenry equipped with a European civil consciousness that complemented their national and local loyalties. To this end these officials pioneered a series of civil initiatives designed to begin the process of building Civil Europe. This book analyses three such civil initiatives: the building of the first European School, the European Community’s participation in Expo 58 and the production of the European Community’s own documentaries. From the start Europe was designed and conceived of in terms of a European general civil public and not solely in terms dictated by economic and political interests.＜/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。 | 10,331円 |

 Economics of Property Management: The Building as a Means of Production【電子書籍】[ Herman Tempelmans Plat ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The economic analysis of a building is a complex subject and traditionally it has focused on a single aspect of the structure or a single part of the construction process. Dr Tempelmans Plat is a leading proponent of a new methodology which focuses on the building as a stock of services to be supplied over a long lifespan. This method is more realistic since it takes into account the changes in use and the adaptation of the building over its life. This book will be the first to make this method comprehensible to a wide audience of postgraduate students and professionals in the field of construction economics.＜/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。 | 11,275円 |
 Atom The building block of everything【電子書籍】[ Jack Challoner ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Until now, popular science has relegated the atom to a supporting role in defining the different chemical elements of the periodic table.

 Bluie West One: Secret Mission to Greenland, July 1941 ー The Building of an American Air Force Base【電子書籍】[ William Kray ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In 1940 a decision was made between the U.S. and Great Britain to build an air base in Greenland. The mission for the airbase was to patrol the North Atlantic shipping lanes, to protect the cryolite mines at Ivigtut, Greenland, from German occupation. (Cryolite is a flux used in the refining of aluminumーthe only known source in the world), and to act as a rescue station for any Allied planes that encountered trouble along the route. This is the story of the building of that airbaseーcodenamed Bluie West Oneーby 2nd Lt. William Kray, a member of the 3rd Battalion, 21st Aviation Engineer Regiment, which was tasked with building the base. The trials and tribulations of unloading the ships bringing the supplies and materiel was a mission in itself. The inability to build an unloading dock required a crude but effective improvisation. The problem was sufficiently grave to force the War Department to send a civilian contractor with the proper equipment for the task. The discovery of the misrepresentation of the so-called gravel surface for the initial runway was a further stunning blow. The original survey stated the surface was gravel. They were told just grade it, lay a surface of Pierced Steel Planking (PSP) and they would be home in three months. The magnitude of the problem is difficult to describe. The gravel turned out to be sprinkled with boulders three to twenty feet in diameter. How they combated this problem is a story of untold heartache and depression. In addition, they simultaneously had to build quarters for themselves and the occupying personnel. Other projects were added including building a roadway up the mountain to erect a radar station. They were also ordered to build a radio direction finder station on the island of Simiutak, at the mouth of the fjord. Later they were ordered to build emplacements for 16-inch naval guns ten miles down the fjord at a bend, to protect the base from ships sailing up the fjord. Contents: Preface | Introduction | Greenland Prologue | Greenland | Unloading | First Storm | Psychology of Personnel | Flight to the East Coast | December 7th | Mountain Road | Radio | Work and Life at Bluie West | Final Chapter | 96 6x9-inch pages, 54 photos from author's personal collection.＜/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。 | 265円 |

Dr. David Stechholz D.D. ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Building programs in churches and church-related schools usually leave a big imprint on the lives of not just the parishioners who are part of a building committee, but also many others touched in heart and mind by various aspects of a building program.

Through his stories, Dr. Stechholz provides insight into how he and others overcame opposition from within the congregation, and found the humor in many situations.＜/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。 | 498円 |

 Net Worth John Risley, Clearwater, and the Building of a Billion-Dollar Empire【電子書籍】[ Quentin Casey ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞John Risley is rich. Very rich. A university dropout who aspired, as a boy, to become a millionaire, Risley has evolved into one of Canada’s most dynamic, risk-taking entrepreneursーthe co-creator and visionary behind three global companies, and an investor in businesses spanning space technology, electric vehicles, and biofuels. Though most often associated with Clearwater and the seafood sector (where his ideas transformed the Atlantic Canadian lobster industry into a multi-billion-dollar enterprise), John Risley acquired most of his wealth through unrelated businesses, including a huge gamble in Caribbean telecommunications. His name has become synonymous with conspicuous consumption; he spends extravagantly on houses, superyachts, private jets, prized Canadian artwork, and charitable causes. Drawing on extensive research and interviews with family, long-time friends, and key business partners, as well as more than a dozen interviews with Risley himself, award-winning author Quentin Casey details how Risley became rich: how he built his businesses and made his fortuneーand the luxuries it has provided him. Through expert storytelling and twenty black-and-white photos, Net Worth also explores the cost of amassing that wealth, and the personal price Risley has paid for his relentless pursuit of the next big deal.＜/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。 | 1,459円 |

 Of the Buildings of Justinian【電子書籍】[ Procopius ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞"Of the Buildings of Justinian" is a significant work by Procopius, a prominent historian of the Byzantine Empire. In this text, Procopius meticulously details the architectural achievements of Emperor Justinian I, highlighting the grandeur and innovation of structures such as the Hagia Sophia and various fortifications. His descriptions not only celebrate the aesthetic qualities of these buildings but also reflect the political and cultural ambitions of Justinian's reign.

 Model Aeroplanes: The Building of Model Monoplanes, Biplanes Together with a Chapter on Building a Model Airship【電子書籍】[ F. J. Camm ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞If a kite is launched in a wind it speedily attains a certain height or altitude, at which it remains so long as the wind does not drop. The wind is overcoming gravity, which constantly endeavours to bring the kite to earth, and hence, since the kite remains in the air, the forces acting on the kite are said to be in equilibriumーthat is, balanced. The forces include gravity, which is practically constant and remains unaltered under all conditions, the air pressure which, when sufficiently intense, lifts the kite against the action of gravity, and the pull of the string. The air pressure is really a combination of two forcesーlift and drift. The drift or resistance tends to move the kite in the direction of the wind, and lift to raise the kite in opposition to gravity. Since, therefore, drift is an undesirable factor, the resistance of the machine must be made as low as possible, as it absorbs power, as will clearly be seen. If the velocity of the wind drops, the kite drops also, increasing its angle with the horizon, thereby causing it to capture and force down more air until equilibrium is again restored. If the string of a kite breaks, the balance of the forces is destroyed, drift and gravity taking command and so bringing the kite to earth. If it takes a wind of fifteen miles an hour to lift a kite, similarly it would lift to exactly the same elevation if the holder of the kite-string commenced to run at a rate of fifteen miles per hour in calm air. Now, an aeroplane is merely a kite with a mechanical arrangement (the engine and propeller) which supplies the motion necessary to fly it, and eliminates the necessity for a wind. This statement can easily be followed. In the aforementioned parallel it was seen that it was immaterial whether the kite-flyer was standing still with the wind moving at fifteen miles per hour, or whether he was moving at the rate of fifteen miles per hour in still air. The result in each case is the sameーthe kite flies. It has been stated that if the kite-string fractured the kite would fall to the ground. If, however, it were possible at the moment of rupture to attach a weightless engine and air-screw to the kite capable of exerting a forward push equal to the drift, the kite would still remain in the air. Again, if the wind were suddenly to stop, and the engine and air-screw were capable of moving the kite forward at the same rate at which the wind was blowing, the kite would fly, and in all important respects would constitute an aeroplane. The kite, it will be assumed, requires a minimum speed of fifteen miles per hour in order to sustain itself. If the wind be blowing at fifteen miles an hour the operator can remain stationary. If it blows at ten miles an hour he must run at five miles an hour against the wind. If it blows at five miles an hour he must run at ten miles an hour against the wind, or twenty miles per hour with the wind to maintain the kite. Hence an aeroplane really has two speedsーits speed relative to the earth and its air speed. The former is the rate of which it would travel a given distance, and the latter is the sum of the speed relative to the earth and the velocity of the wind. It can readily be seen that an aeroplane travelling at ten miles an hour relative to the earth against a fifteen-mile-an-hour wind has really an air speed of twenty-five miles an hour. When the aeroplane, however, is travelling with the wind, the air speed is the speed relative to the earth minus the velocity of the wind.＜/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。 | 1,200円 |

It is not just the numbers but the speed of development of Chinese museums that takes our breath awayーwith nearly one new museum per day being opened or expanded in this huge country.＜/p＞ ＜p＞What are the motivations for the rapid development of museums in China? How is the public responding? Who pays for these museums and how? What has been the impact of china’s urbanization? How do Chinese museums balance education, scientific research, social cohesion, cultural diplomacy and tourism both internal and external? These are issues that continue to be discussed and debated among western museum professionals in the context of our 200-year history of modern museology. How are these debates evolving in China, which has its own history of museology over that same period from colonialism to communism and from isolation to opening up to the world?＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book explores these issues while introducing English-language readers to a sample of the new Chinese museums in case studies and photographs. To accomplish this goal, Lord Cultural Associates partnered with the Chinese Museums Association who engaged leading Chinese museologists, museum directors, academics and architects to provide chapters and case studies on the history of museums in China, on evolving national museum policies, museum exhibitions and cultural diplomacy, the role of private museums, and the impact of museums on society.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The four sections of this book build our knowledge of the roles of China’s museums through social and political changes, the systems of governance, the complex relationships between private and public sectors and many levels of government. Section One places the current building boom in context. Section Two addresses how China’s rapid urbanization has fueled the museum building boom, framed it, formed it and in some cases financed it. Section Three analyzes how Chinese exhibitions are tools for cultural diplomacy and key elements of soft power The six case studies in Section Four provide perspectives on the diversity of innovative approaches in the sector.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Museum Development in China --- a beautiful, full-color book --- is the product of an international collaboration to discover how much East and West can learn from each other about museum roles, our publics, how we preserve, what we conserve, and our future sustainabilityーeven as we marvel at the accomplishments of China’s museum building boom.＜/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。 | 6,621円 |
