Reagan, Congress, and Human Rights Contesting Morality in US Foreign Policy【電子書籍】[ Rasmus Sinding S?ndergaard ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book traces the role of human rights concerns in US foreign policy during the 1980s, focusing on the struggle among the Reagan administration and members of Congress. It demonstrates how congressional pressure led the administration to reconsider its approach to human rights and craft a conservative human rights policy centered on democracy promotion and anti-communism - a decision which would have profound implications for American attention to human rights. Based on extensive archival research and interviews, Rasmus Sinding S?ndergaard combines a comprehensive overview of human rights in American foreign relations with in-depth case studies of how human rights shaped US foreign policy toward Soviet Jewry, South African apartheid, and Nicaragua. Tracing the motivations behind human rights activism, this book demonstrates how liberals, moderates, and conservatives selectively invoked human rights to further their agendas, ultimately contributing to the establishment of human rights as a core moral language in US foreign policy.</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。 6,252円

US Foreign Policy and Defense Strategy The Evolution of an Incidental Superpower【電子書籍】[ Derek S. Reveron ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Safe from the battlefields of Europe and Asia, the United States led the post?World War II global economic recovery through international assistance and foreign direct investment. With an ardent decolonization agenda and a postwar legitimacy, the United States attempted to construct a world characterized by cooperation. When American optimism clashed with Soviet expansionism, the United States started on a path to global hegemony.</p> <p>In US Foreign Policy and Defense Strategy, the authors analyze the strategic underpinnings of hegemony, assess the national security establishment that sustains dominance, consider the impact on civil-military relations, and explore the intertwining relationships between foreign policy, defense strategy, and commercial activities. Eschewing conventional analyses, the volume not only identifies drivers and continuities in foreign policy, but it also examines how the legacy of the last sixty-five years will influence future national security policy that will be characterized by US leadership in an increasingly competitive world.</p> <p>From civil-military relations to finance, and from competing visions of how America should make war to its philosophy of securing peace through reconstruction and reconciliation, US Foreign Policy and Defense Strategy offers unique insights into the links between military and commercial power as it charts the rise of a historical rarity: the incidental superpower. This accessibly written book is suitable for students and general readers as well as scholars.</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。 4,560円

Curious about George Curious George, Cultural Icons, Colonialism, and US Exceptionalism【電子書籍】[ Rae Lynn Schwartz-DuPre ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In 1940, Hans Augusto Rey and Margret Rey built two bikes, packed what they could, and fled wartime Paris. Among the possessions they escaped with was a manuscript that would later become one of the most celebrated books in children’s literatureー<em>Curious George</em>. Since his debut in 1941, the mischievous icon has only grown in popularity. After being captured in Africa by the Man in the Yellow Hat and taken to live in the big city’s zoo, Curious George became a symbol of curiosity, adventure, and exploration. In <em>Curious about George: Curious George, Cultural Icons, Colonialism, and US Exceptionalism</em>, author Rae Lynn Schwartz-DuPre argues that the beloved character also performs within a narrative of racism, colonialism, and heroism.</p> <p>Using theories of colonial and rhetorical studies to explain why cultural icons like Curious George are able to avoid criticism, Schwartz-DuPre investigates the ways these characters operate as capacious figures, embodying and circulating the narratives that construct them, and effectively argues that discourses about George provide a rich training ground for children to learn US citizenship and become innocent supporters of colonial American exceptionalism. By drawing on postcolonial theory, children’s criticisms, science and technology studies, and nostalgia, Schwartz-DuPre’s critical reading explains the dismissal of the monkey’s 1941 abduction from Africa and enslavement in the US, described in the first book, by illuminating two powerful roles he currently holds: essential STEM ambassador at a time when science and technology is central to global competitiveness and as a World War II refugee who offers a “deficient” version of the Holocaust while performing model US immigrant. Curious George’s twin heroic roles highlight racist science and an Americanized Holocaust narrative. By situating George as a representation of enslaved Africans and Holocaust refugees, <em>Curious about George</em> illuminates the danger of contemporary zero-sum identity politics, the colonization of marginalized identities, and racist knowledge production. Importantly, it demonstrates the ways in which popular culture can be harnessed both to promote colonial benevolence and to present possibilities for resistance.</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。 3,256円

The Chemistry Between Us Love, Sex, and the Science of Attraction【電子書籍】[ Brian Alexander ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>How much control do we have over love? Much less than we like to think. All that mystery, all that poetry, all those complex behaviors surrounding human bonding leading to the most life-changing decisions we’ll ever make, are unconsciously driven by a few molecules in our brains.</strong></p> <p>How does love begin? How can two strangers come to the conclusion that it would not only be pleasant to share their lives, but that they <em>must</em> share them? How can a man say he loves his wife, yet still cheat on her? Why do others stay in relationships even after the romance fades? How is it possible to fall in love with the “wrong” person? How do people come to have a “type”?</p> <p>Physical attraction, jealousy, infidelity, mother-infant bondingーall the behaviors that so often leave us befuddledーare now being teased out of the fog of mystery thanks to today’s social neuroscience. Larry Young, one of the world’s leading experts in the field, and journalist Brian Alexander explain how those findings apply to you.</p> <p>Drawing on real human stories and research from labs around the world, <em>The Chemistry Between Us</em> is a bold attempt to create a “grand unified theory” of love. Some of the mind-blowing insights include:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Love can get such a grip on us because it is, literally, an addiction.</p> </li> <li> <p>To a woman falling in love, a man is like her baby.</p> </li> <li> <p>Why it’s false to say society makes gender, and how it’s possible to have the body of one gender and the brain of another.</p> </li> <li> <p>Why some people are more likely to cheat than others.</p> </li> <li> <p>Why we sometimes truly can’t resist temptation.</p> </li> </ul> <p>Young and Alexander place their revelations into historical, political, and social contexts. In the process, they touch on everything from gay marriage to why single-mother households might not be good for society. <em>The Chemistry Between Us</em> offers powerful insights into love, sex, gender, sexual orientation, and family life that will prove to be enlightening, controversial, and thought provoking.</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。 2,281円

Surviving Modern Yoga Cult Dynamics, Charismatic Leaders, and What Survivors Can Teach Us【電子書籍】[ Matthew Remski ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**Grounded in investigative research and real survivor stories, <em>Surviving Modern Yoga</em> uncovers the physical and sexual abuse perpetrated by Ashtanga yoga leader Pattabhi Joisーand reckons with the culture, structures, and mythos that enabled it.</p> <p>The revised edition of <em>Practice and All is Coming</em> from Conspirituality co-host Matthew Remski**</p> <p>Yoga culture sells well-meaning westerners the full package: physical health, good vibes, and spiritual growth. Here, investigative journalist Matthew Remski explores how cultic dynamics, institutional self-interest, and spiritualized indifference collude to obscure the truth: Harm happens in plain sight.</p> <p>Through in-depth interviews, insider analysis, and Remski’s own history with high-demand groups, <em><strong>Surviving Modern Yoga</strong></em> brings to light how we’re each susceptible to cult abuse and exploitation. He shows how, with the right kind of situational vulnerability and the wrong kind of guru, the ideas we hold close about ourselvesーlike <em>It wouldn’t happen to me</em> or <em>I’d speak up for victims</em>ーfail to protect us.</p> <p>Remski reckons with his own complicity in spiritual power dynamics, and shares how a process of disillusionment allowed him to recognize harm. He does the same for readers, peeling back the veneer of yoga marketing to reveal the abuse, assault, and silencing perpetrated against seekers who trusted Jois as a mentor, their <em>guruji</em>ーeven a father figure. Each survivor speaks in their own words, on their own terms, reclaiming agency against an insular, in-group culture that enabled a charismatic leader’s devastating harmーand positioned him as its only remedy.</p> <p><em><strong>Surviving Modern Yoga</strong></em> also includes practical tools to help readers:</p> <ul> <li>Understand how high-demand groups trap would-be targets</li> <li>Evaluate their own situational vulnerabilities</li> <li>Learn to listen for loaded, red-flag language</li> <li>Cultivate their literacy of cult tactics</li> </ul>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。 3,120円

Sexed Up How Society Sexualizes Us, and How We Can Fight Back【電子書籍】[ Julia Serano ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The author of landmark manifesto <em>Whipping Girl</em> exposes the violent ways we are all sexualized?then offers a bold path for resistance</strong></p> <p>Feminists have long challenged the ways in which men tend to sexualize women. But pioneering activist, biologist, and trans woman Julia Serano argues that sexualization is a far more pervasive problem, as it’s something that we all do to other people, often without being aware of it.</p> <p>Why do we perceive men as sexual predators and women as sexual objects? Why are LGBTQ+ people stereotyped as being sexually indiscriminate and deceptive? Why are people of color still being hypersexualized? These stereotypes push minorities farther into the margins, and even the privileged are policed from transgressing, lest they also become targets. Many view sexualization as a mere component of sexism, racism, or queerphobia, but Serano argues that liberation from sexual violence comes through collectively confronting sexualization itself.</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。 2,344円

Me, Myself, and Us The Science of Personality and the Art of Well-Being【電子書籍】[ Brian R Little, PhD ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>How does your personality shape your life and what, if anything, can you do about it?</strong></p> <p>Are you hardwired for happiness, or born to brood? Do you think you're in charge of your future, or do you surf the waves of unknowable fate? Would you be happier, or just less socially adept, if you were less concerned about what other people thought of you? And what about your "Type A" spouse: is he or she destined to have a heart attack, or just drive you to drink?</p> <p>In the past few decades, new scientific research has transformed old ideas about the nature of human personality. Neuroscientists, biologists, and psychological scientists have reexamined the theories of Freud and Jung as well as the humanistic psychologies of the 1960s, upending the simplistic categorizations of personality "types," and developing new tools and methods for exploring who we are. Renowned professor and pioneering research psychologist Brian R. Little has been at the leading edge of this new science. In this wise and witty book he shares a wealth of new data and provocative insights about who we are, why we act the way we do, what we can -- and can't -- change, and how we can best thrive in light of our "nature."</p> <p><em>Me, Myself, and Us</em> explores questions that are rooted in the origins of human consciousness but are as commonplace as yesterday's breakfast conversation, such as whether our personality traits are "set" by age thirty or whether our brains and selves are more plastic. He considers what our personalities portend for our health and success, and the extent to which our well-being depends on the personal projects we pursue.</p> <p>Through stories, studies, personal experiences, and entertaining interactive assessments, <em>Me, Myself, and Us</em> provides a lively, thought-provoking, and ultimately optimistic look at the possibilities and perils of being uniquely ourselves, while illuminating the selves of the familiar strangers we encounter, work with, and love.</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 Avoidable War The Dangers of a Catastrophic Conflict between the US and Xi Jinping's China【電子書籍】[ Kevin Rudd ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A war between China and the US would be catastrophic, deadly, and destructive. Unfortunately, it is no longer unthinkable.</strong></p> <p>The relationship between the US and China, the world’s two superpowers, is peculiarly volatile. It rests on a seismic faultーof cultural misunderstanding, historical grievance, and ideological incompatibility. No other nations are so quick to offend and be offended. Their militaries play a dangerous game of chicken, corporations steal intellectual property, intelligence satellites peer, and AI technicians plot. The capacity for either country to cross a fatal line grows daily.</p> <p>Kevin Rudd, a former Australian prime minister who has studied, lived in, and worked with China for more than forty years, is one of the very few people who can offer real insight into the mindsets of the leadership whose judgment will determine if a war will be fought. <em>The Avoidable War</em> demystifies the actions of both sides, explaining and translating them for the benefit of the other. Geopolitical disaster is still avoidable, but only if these two giants can find a way to coexist without betraying their core interests through what Rudd calls “managed strategic competition.” Should they fail, down that path lies the possibility of a war that could rewrite the future of both countries, and the 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。 2,866円

Years later, Axton discovered that she, too, had fallen prey to the identity thief.</p> <p><em>The Less People Know About Us</em> is a cautionary tale, but not one without hope as Axton looks back on the dysfunctional childhood that led to her desire to help this from happening to others.</p> <p><strong>AN EDGAR AWARDS 2020 WINNER AND <em>WALL STREET JOURNAL</em> BESTSELLER</strong></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。 1,824円

The Burnt Out Society: Why So Many of Us are Unhappy and How We Can Make a Change【電子書籍】[ Adam Staten ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>So many people are unhappy. Levels of mental ill-health have been rising inexorably for the last few decades and our response to this so far has been the widespread use of medication, the pouring of resources into psychological treatments, and the establishment of resilience programmes in our schools and workplaces. Why are we now so unhappy when life is easier and safer than it has ever been? Why do so many of us now need treatment to stop us sinking into depression? Why are we now having to teach our children to be resilient enough to survive in the social environment we have created for them?<br /> The Burnt Out Society explains why our current approach is misguided and how we could better direct our energy and resources in order to make ourselves happier.<br /> Drawing on evidence from medicine, psychology, sociology and evolutionary biology this book explains why high levels of mental ill-health are an inevitable result of the way we have chosen to live. People our unhappy because we have created a society that exposes them to continual stress resulting in psychological burnout.<br /> In the workplace we recognise the dangers of burnout and we try to address it by seeking out and tackling the causes of workplace stress. But in real life we are in the habit of patching people up and throwing them back into the environment that caused them so much distress in the first place. This book describes a different approach. The society in which we live has become toxic, we should no longer simply be trying to survive it, we should be seeking to improve it.<br /> The coronavirus pandemic has given us an opportunity to reset. This book suggests the direction of travel we should take.</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。 103円

Who Can You Trust? How Technology Brought Us Together and Why It Might Drive Us Apart【電子書籍】[ Rachel Botsman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>If you can't trust those in charge, who can you trust? From government to business, banks to media, trust in institutions is at an all-time low. But this isn't the age of distrust -- far from it.</strong></p> <p>In this revolutionary book, world-renowned trust expert Rachel Botsman reveals that we are at the tipping point of one of the biggest social transformations in human history -- with fundamental consequences for everyone. A new world order is emerging: we might have lost faith in institutions and leaders, but millions of people rent their homes to total strangers, exchange digital currencies, or find themselves trusting a bot. This is the age of "distributed trust," a paradigm shift driven by innovative technologies that are rewriting the rules of an all-too-human relationship.</p> <p>If we are to benefit from this radical shift, we must understand the mechanics of how trust is built, managed, lost, and repaired in the digital age. In the first book to explain this new world, Botsman provides a detailed map of this uncharted landscape -- and explores what's next for humanity.</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。 1,302円

The Invisible Gorilla And Other Ways Our Intuition Deceives Us【電子書籍】[ Christopher Chabris ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>If a gorilla walked out into the middle of a basketball pitch, you’d notice it. Wouldn’t you? If a serious violent crime took place just next to you, you’d remember it, right? The Invisible Gorilla is a fascinating look at the unbelievable, yet routine tricks that your brain plays on you.</p> <p>In an award-winning and groundbreaking study, psychologists Christopher Chabris and Daniel Simons asked volunteers to watch a 60-second film of a group of students playing basketball and told them to count the number of passes made. About halfway through, a woman dressed head to toe in a gorilla outfit slowly moved to centre screen, beat her chest at the camera, and casually strolled away. Unbelievably, almost half of the volunteers missed the gorilla.</p> <p>As this astonishing and utterly unique book demonstrates, exactly the same kind of mental illusion that causes people to miss the gorilla can also explain why many other things, including why:</p> <ul> <li>honest eyewitness testimony can convict innocent defendants</li> <li>expert money managers suddenly lose billions</li> <li>Homer Simpson has much to teach you about clear thinking</li> </ul> <p>Insightful, witty, and fascinating, The Invisible Gorilla closely examines the false impressions that most profoundly influence our lives and gives practical advice on how we can minimize their negative impact.</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。 1,252円

Don't Forget Us Here Lost and Found at Guantanamo【電子書籍】[ Mansoor Adayfi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>This moving, eye-opening memoir of an innocent man detained at Guant?namo Bay for fifteen years tells a story of humanity in the unlikeliest of places and an unprecedented look at life at Guant?namo.</strong></p> <p>At the age of 18, Mansoor Adayfi left his home in Yemen for a cultural mission to Afghanistan. He never returned. Kidnapped by warlords and then sold to the US after 9/11, he was disappeared to Guant?namo Bay, where he spent the next 15 years as Detainee #441.</p> <p><em>Don't Forget Us Here</em> tells two coming-of-age stories in parallel: a makeshift island outpost becoming the world's most notorious prison and an innocent young man emerging from its darkness. Arriving as a stubborn teenager, Mansoor survived the camp's infamous interrogation program and became a feared and hardened resistance fighter leading prison riots and hunger strikes. With time though, he grew into the man prisoners nicknamed "Smiley Troublemaker": a student, writer, and historian. With unexpected warmth and empathy, he unwinds a narrative of fighting for hope and survival in unimaginable circumstances, illuminating the limitlessness of the human spirit. And through his own story, Mansoor also tells Guant?namo's story, offering an unprecedented window into one of the most secretive places on earth and the peopleーdetainees and guards alikeーwho lived there with him.</p> <p>Twenty years later, Guant?namo remains open, and at a moment of due reckoning, Mansoor Adayfi helps us understand what actually happened thereーboth the horror and the beautyーa vital chronicle of an experience we cannot afford to forget.</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。 2,083円

Scarabs The History, Manufacture and Symbolism of the Scarab?us in Ancient Egypt, Phoenicia, Sardinia, Etruria, etc【電子書籍】[ Isaac Myer ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Scarabs," Isaac Myer deftly intertwines myth and reality, exploring the ancient symbolism of the scarab beetle within the context of human existence and identity. The narrative unfolds through a blend of lyrical prose and sharp insights, inviting readers to reflect on the cyclical nature of life, death, and rebirth. Myer employs a minimalist style, echoing the precision and elegance of ancient texts, while also challenging contemporary perspectives on mortality and transformation. This literary tapestry invites not only introspection but also a dialogue on the metaphysical significance of cultural symbols throughout history. Isaac Myer, with a background in archaeology and cultural studies, draws deeply from his extensive travels and academic pursuits in Egyptology. His passion for ancient civilizations and their relevance to modern life shapes the thematic core of "Scarabs," as he seeks to bridge the gap between the past and the present. His scholarly work, coupled with personal exploration, highlights the enduring impact of ancient symbols on contemporary consciousness. I wholeheartedly recommend "Scarabs" to readers who seek a profound, thought-provoking journey through symbolism and the intricacies of human nature. Myer'??s unique perspective and evocative narrative resonate powerfully, ensuring that this book is not only an exploration of antiquity but also a mirror reflecting the complexities of our own lives.</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。 150円

The Israel Lobby and US Foreign Policy【電子書籍】[ John J Mearsheimer ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Does America’s pro-Israel lobby wield inappropriate control over US foreign policy?</p> <p>This book has created a storm of controversy by bringing out into the open America’s relationship with the Israel lobby: a loose coalition of individuals and organizations that actively work to shape foreign policy in a way that is profoundly damaging both to the United States and Israel itself.</p> <p>Israel is an important, valued American ally, yet Mearsheimer and Walt show that, by encouraging unconditional US financial and diplomatic support for Israel and promoting the use of its power to remake the Middle East, the lobby has jeopardized America’s and Israel’s long-term security and put other countries ? including Britain ? at risk.</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。 1,746円

Raising Global Families Parenting, Immigration, and Class in Taiwan and the US【電子書籍】[ Pei-Chia Lan ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Public discourse on Asian parenting tends to fixate on ethnic culture as a static value set, disguising the fluidity and diversity of Chinese parenting. Such stereotypes also fail to account for the challenges of raising children in a rapidly modernizing world, full of globalizing values. In <em>Raising Global Families</em>, Pei-Chia Lan examines how ethnic Chinese parents in Taiwan and the United States negotiate cultural differences and class inequality to raise children in the contexts of globalization and immigration. She draws on a uniquely comparative, multisited research model with four groups of parents: middle-class and working-class parents in Taiwan, and middle-class and working-class Chinese immigrants in the Boston area. Despite sharing a similar ethnic cultural background, these parents develop class-specific, context-sensitive strategies for arranging their children's education, care, and discipline, and for coping with uncertainties provoked by their changing surroundings. Lan's cross-Pacific comparison demonstrates that class inequality permeates the fabric of family life, even as it takes shape in different ways across national contexts.</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。 3,386円

False Alarm How Climate Change Panic Costs Us Trillions, Hurts the Poor, and Fails to Fix the Planet【電子書籍】[ Bjorn Lomborg ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>An “essential” (<em>Times</em> UK) and “meticulously researched” (<em>Forbes</em>) book by “the skeptical environmentalist” argues that panic over climate change is causing more harm than good</strong></p> <p>Hurricanes batter our coasts. Wildfires rage across the American West. Glaciers collapse in the Artic. Politicians, activists, and the media espouse a common message: climate change is destroying the planet, and we must take drastic action immediately to stop it. Children panic about their future, and adults wonder if it is even ethical to bring new life into the world.</p> <p>Enough, argues bestselling author Bjorn Lomborg. Climate change is real, but it's not the apocalyptic threat that we've been told it is. Projections of Earth's imminent demise are based on bad science and even worse economics. In panic, world leaders have committed to wildly expensive but largely ineffective policies that hamper growth and crowd out more pressing investments in human capital, from immunization to education.</p> <p><em>False Alarm</em> will convince you that everything you think about climate change is wrong -- and points the way toward making the world a vastly better, if slightly warmer, place for us all.</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

Afghan Air Wars Soviet, US and NATO operations, 1979?2021【電子書籍】[ Michael Napier ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Michael Napier details</strong> <strong>the critical role of air power in the skies over Afghanistan, from the</strong> <strong>ten-year occupation by the USSR in the 1980s through to the</strong> <strong>US and NATO campaign from 2001 to 2021.</strong></p> <p>US and British forces, strongly supported by air power, invaded Afghanistan in late 2001 in response to the Al Qaida attacks on 9/11. What began as a small-scale operation of 2,500 troops with the limited objective of destroying Al Qaida became ever larger, growing to over 100,000 troops ten years later. This experience matched that of the Soviets after their invasion in late 1979, when they saw a massive increase in resistance by Mujahidin.</p> <p><em>Afghan Air Wars</em> details how Soviet aircraft including the MiG-21, MiG-23, Su-17 and Su-25, as well as Mi-8 and Mi-24 helicopters supported Soviet offensives in the Panjshir Valley and other regions. Despite these high-octane operations and overwhelming air superiority, Soviet forces eventually withdrew.</p> <p>Some 20 years later, US and NATO air forces were deployed in similar roles. F-15E, F-16, F/A-18, A-10, Mirage, Harrier and Tornado aircraft all saw action in the skies over Afghanistan as did the CH-47 Chinook and AH-64 Apache helicopters. Mike Napier fully details their series of operations in a hostile environment as well as the advent of high-resolution targeting pods and Precision Guided Munitions (PGM) which enabled aircraft to stand off from threat areas and also to deploy their weapons with deadly accuracy. The conflict also saw the groundbreaking introduction of Remotely Piloted Vehicles (RPV) into routine air operations.</p> <p><em>Afghan Air Wars</em> is richly illustrated with over 240 images ? both official photos and privately taken, in-theatre images which have not been previously published. It also includes first-hand accounts by aircrews involved to create a unique and comprehensive picture of the part played by air power over Afghanistan in the last 40 years.</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。 4,983円

The Evolution of Beauty How Darwin's Forgotten Theory of Mate Choice Shapes the Animal World - and Us【電子書籍】[ Richard O. Prum ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**A FINALIST FOR THE PULITZER PRIZE</p> <p>NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY <em>THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW</em>, <em>SMITHSONIAN,</em> AND <em>WALL STREET JOURNAL</em></p> <p>A major reimagining of how evolutionary forces work, revealing how mating preferencesーwhat Darwin termed "the taste for the beautiful"ーcreate the extraordinary range of ornament in the animal world.**</p> <p>In the great halls of science, dogma holds that Darwin's theory of natural selection explains every branch on the tree of life: which species thrive, which wither away to extinction, and what features each evolves. But can adaptation by natural selection really account for everything we see in nature?<br /> Yale University ornithologist Richard Prumーreviving Darwin's own viewsーthinks not. Deep in tropical jungles around the world are birds with a dizzying array of appearances and mating displays: Club-winged Manakins who sing with their wings, Great Argus Pheasants who dazzle prospective mates with a four-foot-wide cone of feathers covered in golden 3D spheres, Red-capped Manakins who moonwalk. In thirty years of fieldwork, Prum has seen numerous display traits that seem disconnected from, if not outright contrary to, selection for individual survival. To explain this, he dusts off Darwin's long-neglected theory of sexual selection in which the act of choosing a mate for purely aesthetic reasonsーfor the mere pleasure of itーis an independent engine of evolutionary change.<br /> Mate choice can drive ornamental traits from the constraints of adaptive evolution, allowing them to grow ever more elaborate. It also sets the stakes for sexual conflict, in which the sexual autonomy of the female evolves in response to male sexual control. Most crucially, this framework provides important insights into the evolution of human sexuality, particularly the ways in which female preferences have changed male bodies, and even maleness itself, through evolutionary time.<br /> <em>The Evolution of Beauty</em> presents a unique scientific vision for how nature's splendor contributes to a more complete understanding of evolution and of ourselves.</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。 1,370円

Ring of Power Symbols and Themes Love Vs. Power in Wagner's Ring Circle and in Us : A Jungian-Feminist Perspective【電子書籍】[ Jean Shinoda Bolen, M.D. ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A vivid grasp of the story and the characters in "The Ring of Niebelung" brings Richard Wagner's mythic four-opera cycle to life. <em>The Ring Cycle</em> has a hold on our imagination like no other operatic work because it is archetypal and has the power of myth as well as music to reverberate in the psyche. Bolen shows how myth illuminates psychology, and more - <em>Ring of Power</em> goes beyond the psychology of the individual, revealing dysfunctional families and patriarchal institutions.</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。 2,209円
