 Labour’s Economic Ideology Since 1900 Developed Through Crises【電子書籍】[ Christopher Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book traces the economic ideology of the UK Labour Party from its origins to the current day. Through its analysis, the book emphasises key crises, including the 1926 General Strike, the 1931 Great Depression, the 1979 Winter of Discontent and the 2007/2008 economic crisis.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In analysing this history, the ideology of the Labour Party is examined through four core themes:＜/p＞ ＜p＞? the party’s definition of socialism;＜/p＞ ＜p＞? the role of the state in economic decision making;＜/p＞ ＜p＞? the party’s understanding of inequalities; and＜/p＞ ＜p＞? its relationship with the trade union movement.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The result is a systematic exploration of the drivers and key ideas behind the Labour Party’s economic ideology. In demonstrating how crises have affected the party’s economic policy, the book presents a historical analysis of the party’s evolution since its formation and offers insights into how future changes may occur.＜/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。 | 4,292円 |
 Destroyers At Normandy: Naval Gunfire Support At Omaha Beach [Illustrated Edition]【電子書籍】[ William B. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Includes numerous maps and illustrations.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This monograph provides first-hand accounts of Destroyer Squadron 18 during this critical battle upon which so much of the success of our campaign in Europe would depend. Their experience at Omaha Beach can be looked upon as typical of most U.S. warships engaged at Normandy. On the other hand, from the author’s research it appears evident that this destroyer squadron, with their British counterparts, may have had a more pivotal influence on the breakout from the beachhead and the success of the subsequent campaign than was heretofore realized. Its contributions certainly provide a basis for discussion among veterans and research by historians, as well as a solid, professional account of naval action in support of the Normandy landings.＜/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。 | 336円 |
 Rommel’s Desert Campaigns, February 1941-September 1942: A Study In Operational Level Weakness [Illustrated Edition]【電子書籍】[ Major Donald E. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Includes the War in North Africa Illustration Pack - 112 photos/illustrations and 21 maps.＜br /＞ This study is a historical analysis to determine why Rommel’s tactical success on the battlefield could not accomplish strategic objectives in North Africa. Rommel’s operations are reviewed from his arrival in North Africa in February 1941 through his last offensive to destroy the British Eighth Army at Alamein in August-September 1942. The study compares his ability to conduct tactical operations with his apparent inability to plan and execute actions at the operational level of war. Rommel’s problems with operational planning are addressed within the scope of campaign planning principles set forth in FM 100-5, Operations, (Final Draft). His planning is expressly judged on how he shaped his operational plans by using the concepts of aims, resources, constraints, and restrictions to conform to strategic guidance. Rommel’s tactical execution is contrasted with his operational performance. This comparison is based on the AirLand Battle tenets of agility, initiative, depth, and synchronization. The study concludes that Rommel’s failure lies in planning operations that exceeded his resources and conducting needless operations that resulted in the loss of the initiative at the decisive point. Rommel’s plans exceeded the strategic objectives desired by the theater strategists. His execution was ultimately defeated by his quest for tactical victories without regard to how they contributed to achieving campaign objectives. Rommel’s weakness at the operational level led to failure to sequence tactical victories to achieve campaign goals. This failure illustrates the importance of understanding how operational art orchestrates tactical activities to achieve strategic objectives within a theater of operations.＜/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。 | 167円 |
 Everyday Matters【電子書籍】[ Wayne Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In spite of how it is often treated, the everyday does matter to God. And if we're a follower of Jesus, it should matter to us. Everyday Matters argues the case for taking ordinary activities seriously enough so that our faith shapes and changes the very ways we eat, work, inhabit houses and neighbourhoods, drive, shop, connect with others through hi tech devices, and play and watch sport. All these arenas of life (among others) are opportunities for both worship and transformation. Instead of just unthinkingly treating such activities as inconsequential to our faith, the gospel calls us to evaluate and redeem them in quite distinctive ways. In order to do this we need to develop a robust and practical theology for everyday life. This book will help individuals and communities of faith to begin this journey.＜/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。 | 543円 |
 Lawyer Games After Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil【電子書籍】[ Dep Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞LAWYER GAMES is the TRUE story of the murder case that gave rise to the book and Clint Eastwood directed motion picture, Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil. But this book goes far beyond the boundaries of a single murder case. No reader of LAWYER GAMES will ever again look the same way at a criminal trial.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the early morning of May 2, 1981, Danny Hansford was shot dead by James Williams with a World War II vintage Luger in a historic Savannah mansion. For the next eight-and-a-half years, through four murder trials and intrigue which reached the highest levels of Georgia politics - including a former governor and the Georgia Supreme Court - lawyers battled over whether the 50-year-old Williams shot the 21-year-old Hansford in self-defense.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Written by Dep Kirkland, who arrived at the scene when Hansford's body was still on the floor, Lawyer Games is the true story of this remarkable case. Kirkland, the Chief Assistant DA at the time, made the decision to arrest Williams and tried the first of four murder trials alongside the District Attorney. His firsthand knowledge allows him not only to deeply analyze the murder case but also to expose the legal mischief spawned when a defendant facing unshakable physical evidence possesses almost unlimited funds.＜/p＞ ＜p＞LAWYER GAMES is not merely the story of an infamous murder case. It is the story of lawyer obfuscation, subterfuge and manipulation of the criminal trial process. These are common tools of a certain species of defense lawyer. LAWYER GAMES demonstrates the connection by drawing parallels with other high-profile criminal defendants, including O.J. Simpson, Phil Spector, Angelo Bruno (one of two Hillside Stranglers) and others.＜/p＞ ＜p＞True crime aficionados will be drawn to the two stories told in the book: The riveting story of the case, its evidence (including facts never heard in the courtroom), trials and results, and the incredible eight-year campaign to beat a murder rap no matter what, with a look behind the curtain at a darker side of the American criminal justice system.＜/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。 | 1,860円 |
 Indecision in American Legislatures【電子書籍】[ Justin Howard Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Lawmaking provides many opportunities for proposals to be altered, amended, tabled, or stopped completely. The ideal legislator should assess evidence, update his or her beliefs with new information, and sometimes be willing to change course. In practice, however, lawmakers face criticism from the media, the public, and their colleagues for “flip-flopping.” Legislators may also only appear to change positions in some cases as a means of voting strategically.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book presents a systematic examination of legislative indecision in American politics. This might occur via “waffling”ーwhere a legislator cosponsors a bill, then votes against it at roll call. Or it might occur when a legislator votes one way on a bill, then switches her vote to the other side. In ＜em＞Indecision in American Legislatures,＜/em＞ Jeffrey J. Harden and Justin H. Kirkland develop a theoretical framework to explain indecision itself, as well as the public’s attitudes toward indecision. They test their expectations with data sources from American state legislatures, the U.S. Congress, and survey questions administered to American citizens. Understanding legislative indecision from both the legislator and citizen perspectives is important for discussions about the quality of representation in American politics.＜/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。 | 8,081円 |

 Into the Far Country Karl Barth and the Modern Subject【電子書籍】[ Scott A. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Into the Far Country is an investigation of Karl Barth’s response to modernity as seen through the prism of the subject under judgment. By suggesting that Barth offers a form of theological resistance to the Enlightenment’s construal of human subjectivity as “absolute,” this piece offers a way of talking about the formation of human persons as the process of being kenotically laid bare before the cross and resurrection of Christ. It does so by reevaluating the relationship between Barth and modernity, making the case that Barth understands Protestantism to have become the agent of its own demise by capitulating to modernity’s insistence on the axiomatic priority of the isolated Cartesian ego. Conversations are hosted with figures including Fyodor Dostoevsky, Rowan Williams, Gillian Rose and Donald MacKinnon in the service of elucidating an account of the human person liberated from captivity to what Barth names “self-judgment,” and freed for creative participation in the super-abundant source of life that is the prayerful movement from the Son to the Father in the Spirit. Therefore, an account of Barth’s theology is offered that is deeply concerned with the triune God’s revelatory presence as that which drives the community into the crucible of difficulty that is the life of kenotic dispossession.＜/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。 | 6,199円 |

 A Search Past Silence The Literacy of Young Black Men【電子書籍】[ David E. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This beautifully written book argues that educators need to understand the social worlds and complex literacy practices of African-American males in order to pay the increasing educational debt we owe all youth and break the school-to-prison pipeline. Moving portraits from the lives of six friends bring to life the structural characteristics and qualities of meaning-making practices, particularly practices that reveal the political tensions of defining who gets to be literate and who does not. Key chapters on language, literacy, race, and masculinity examine how the literacies, languages, and identities of these friends are shaped by the silences of societal denial. Ultimately, ＜em＞A Search Past Silence＜/em＞ is a passionate call for educators to listen to the silenced voices of Black youth and to re-imagine the concept of being literate in a multicultural democratic society.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞David E. Kirkland＜/strong＞ is an associate professor of English and urban education at NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. He is currently in the Michigan State University College of Arts and Letters where he directs The Center for Applied Inclusive Teaching and Learning in Arts and Humanities.＜/p＞ ＜p＞“These remarkable insights make it possible for us to reject the caricatures of Black males so that we can see them as they are.”＜br /＞ ーFrom the Foreword by ＜strong＞Pedro Noguera＜/strong＞, Executive Director, Metropolitan Center for Urban Education, New York University＜/p＞ ＜p＞“＜em＞A Search Past Silence＜/em＞ urges us to ＜em＞listen,＜/em＞ and by doing so, to make audible the previously silenced voices of so many young Black men and their families and communities in our midst. The poets and performers, the writers and troubadours, all those Black men who forge literacies in spite of it all, have never had a better narrator. This beauty of a book deserves to be read and reread.”＜br /＞ ー＜strong＞Sonia Nieto＜/strong＞, Professor Emerita, University of Massachusetts, Amherst＜/p＞ ＜p＞“For those who don’t know that young Black males from the hood readーand even write, believe it or not!ー＜em＞A Search Past Silence＜/em＞ will be a haunting wake-up call. The book represents a crowning achievement, dazzling in its rhetorical power, captivating in its poetic eloquence.”＜br /＞ ー＜strong＞Geneva Smitherman＜/strong＞, University Distinguished Professor Emerita, Michigan State University＜/p＞ ＜p＞“David Kirkland sounds the voices of six young men through his own poetic voice. He crafts words that bring readers into these young people’s lives as they try to make sense of the confusing, oppressive, self-shaping powers of race, gender, and poverty as lived experience. This is a moving, utterly unique contribution to our collective understanding.”＜br /＞ ー＜strong＞Anne Haas Dyson＜/strong＞, Professor, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign＜/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。 | 5,864円 |
 Just Money The Vision of Shalom【電子書籍】[ Wayne Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Money. Such a little word . . . with such explosive power. For love of money reputations have been ruined, marriages have been destroyed, lifelong friendships have been torn apart, whole nations have bled. For lack of money kingdoms have crumbled, corporations have foundered, lives have faded, dreams have died. But what about us ordinary folk? Most of us spend more time thinking about money (worrying, planning, earning, spending, counting, hoping, envying) than about almost any other subject. So what's money got to do with following Jesus? A great deal, actually. Money is no side issue in the Bible. It's talked about extensively. Just Money offers both insights and suggestions as to how we can live a life of faith in a culture in love with the dollar. Be prepared for some surprises.＜/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。 | 4,044円 |
 The Illusion of Accountability Transparency and Representation in American Legislatures【電子書籍】[ Justin H. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Does open governance strengthen democracy? The Illusion of Accountability contends that it does not. Leveraging a wealth of data from decades of legislative politics in the American states, the book assesses the causes and consequences of 'open meetings laws,' which require public access to proceedings in state legislatures. The work traces the roots of these laws back to the founding constitutions of some states and analyzes the waves of adoptions and exemptions to open meetings that occurred in the twentieth century. The book then examines the effects of these transparency laws on a host of politically consequential outcomes both inside and outside the legislature. This analysis consistently finds that open meetings do not influence legislators' behavior or citizens' capacity to alter that behavior. Instead, a link between transparent legislatures and an expanded system of organized interests is established. This illuminating work concludes that transparency reform only creates the illusion of accountability in state government.＜/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。 | 4,716円 |

 Paris Reborn Napol?on III, Baron Haussmann, and the Quest to Build a Modern City【電子書籍】[ Stephane Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Stephane Kirkland gives an engrossing account of Napoleon III, Baron Haussmann, and one of the greatest transformations of a major city in modern history＜/p＞ ＜p＞Traditionally known as a dirty, congested, and dangerous city, 19th Century Paris, France was transformed in an extraordinary period from 1848 to 1870, when the government launched a huge campaign to build streets, squares, parks, churches, and public buildings. The Louvre Palace was expanded, Notre-Dame Cathedral was restored and the French masterpiece of the Second Empire, the ＜em＞Op?ra Garnier＜/em＞, was built. A very large part of what we see when we visit Paris today originates from this short span of twenty-two years.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The vision for the new Nineteenth Century Paris belonged to Napoleon III, who had led a long and difficult climb to absolute power. But his plans faltered until he brought in a civil servant, Georges-Eug?ne Haussmann, to take charge of the implementation. Heedless of controversy, at tremendous cost, Haussmann pressed ahead with the giant undertaking until, in 1870, his political enemies brought him down, just months before the collapse of the whole regime brought about the end of an era.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Paris Reborn＜/em＞ is a must-read for anyone who ever wondered how Paris, the city universally admired as a standard of urban beauty, became what it is.＜/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。 | 1,374円 |
 Classifying Elections in Britain【電子書籍】[ Christopher Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book seeks to understand and classify differences that exist between a variety of elections in Britain. It moves beyond first- and second-order classifications developed following the European Parliamentary Elections in 1979 to include elections of devolved administrations such as the Scottish Parliament, local mayors or the Police and Crime Commissioner Elections. Drawing upon a range of elections, the book develops a new classification based on the interactions that exist between voters, the media and political parties. In doing so, it argues that alongside voters, political parties and the media can, and do, prioritize certain elections. The author explores the role of each group within elections individually through case studies. The final chapter then offers an overall means of understanding the levels of salience attached to each election.＜/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。 | 6,076円 |

 Irish London A Cultural History 1850-1916【電子書籍】[ Prof Richard Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞Winner of the 2022 British Association of Irish Studies (BAIS) Book Prize＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the years following the Irish Famine (1845?52), London became one of the cities of Ireland. The number of Irish in London swelled to over 100,000 and from this mass migration emerged a distinctive and vibrant culture based on a shared sense of history, identity and experience. In this book, Richard Kirkland brings together elements in Irish London's culture and history that had previously only been understood separately or indeed largely overlooked (as in the case of women's' contributions to London Irish politics and culture). In particular, Kirkland makes resonant cultural connections between Irish and cockney performers in the music halls, Irish trade fairs, temperance marches, the Fenian dynamite war of the 1880s, St Patrick's Day events, and the later cultural agitation of revivalists such as W.B. Yeats and Katharine Tynan.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Irish London: A Cultural History 1850?1916＜/em＞ is both a significant contribution to our understanding of Irish emigrant communities in London at this time and an insightful case study for the comparative fields of cultural history and urban migration studies.＜/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。 | 5,148円 |

 Unlocking The Joshua Anointing Keys To Propel Young Leaders Into Success【電子書籍】[ Ayeisha Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞God wants to use His people. According to Joel 2:28, God is empowering people to do His will on the Earth. You are not disqualified from this based on your gender, your race, or even your age. God wants to use young people as well. He has already empowered them with His Spirit, but they must go through a process in order to identify, stir, and release the anointing on their lives. This book is written as a guide to youth and young adults about what the process looks like that "unlocks" the anointing they were given. Although it can minister to any young christian, this book is specifically graced for current or potential young leaders with a charge to guide others in their generation. By examining the life events of Joshua and sharing her personal testimony, Ayeisha Kirkland (a young christian leader herself) ministers to young leaders about keys or methods they must observe to unlock their anointing. Kirkland also warns of potential obstacles young leaders may experience along the way, so they can have an idea of what to expect. Kirkland serves as an example that readers can look towards in order to navigate their unlocking process successfully.＜/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。 | 2,148円 |
 The Hogg Family and Houston Philanthropy and the Civic Ideal【電子書籍】[ Kate Sayen Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Progressive former governor James Stephen Hogg moved his business headquarters to Houston in 1905. For seven decades, his children Will, Ima, and Mike Hogg used their political ties, social position, and family fortune to improve the lives of fellow Houstonians.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As civic activists, they espoused contested causes like city planning and mental health care. As volunteers, they inspired others to support social service, educational, and cultural programs. As philanthropic entrepreneurs, they built institutions that have long outlived them: the Houston Symphony, the Museum of Fine Arts, Memorial Park, and the Hogg Foundation. The Hoggs had a vision of Houston as a great cityーa place that supports access to parklands, music, and art; nurtures knowledge of the "American heritage which unites us"; and provides social service and mental health care assistance. This vision links them to generations of American idealists who advanced a moral response to change.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Based on extensive archival sources, ＜em＞The Hogg Family and Houston＜/em＞ explains the impact of Hogg family philanthropy for the first time. This study explores how individual ideals and actions influence community development and nurture humanitarian values. It examines how philanthropists and volunteers mold Houston's traditions and mobilize allies to meet civic goals. It argues that Houston's generous citizens have long believed that innovative cultural achievement must balance aggressive economic expansion.＜/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。 | 6,148円 |
 Roll Call Rebels Strategic Dissent in the United States and United Kingdom【電子書籍】[ Justin H. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Scholars of legislative politics often note the many differences between the British House of Commons and the United States House of Representatives. These include differences in party strength, members' partisan loyalty on votes, and general institutional structure. Because of these differences, scholars have rarely compared these chambers directly. This Element aims to do precisely that. The authors point out the many similar motivations of members in both chambers, and leverage these similar motivations to theorize that member ideology, as well as how party agenda interact to produce party disloyalty. Using data on legislative voting following changes in agenda control, the authors demonstrate that ideological extremists in both the US and UK use party disloyalty to connect with ideologically extreme constituents. The similarities in patterns across these chambers suggest that legislative scholars have much to gain by considering the commonalities across American and British politics, and in general, by thinking more frequently about US legislative politics in a comparative context.＜/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。 | 3,100円 |
 Lee's Tar Heels The Pettigrew-Kirkland-MacRae Brigade【電子書籍】[ Earl J. Hess ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The Pettigrew-Kirkland-MacRae Brigade was one of North Carolina’s best-known and most successful units during the Civil War. Formed in 1862, the brigade spent nearly a year protecting supply lines before being thrust into its first major combat at Gettysburg. There, James Johnston Pettigrew’s men pushed back the Union’s famed Iron Brigade in vicious fighting on July 1 and played a key role in Pickett’s Charge on July 3, in the process earning a reputation as one of the hardest-fighting units in Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia. Despite suffering heavy losses during the Gettysburg campaign, the brigade went on to prove its valor in a host of other engagements. It marched with Lee to Appomattox and was among the last Confederate units to lay down arms in the surrender ceremony.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Earl Hess tells the story of the men of the Pettigrew-Kirkland-MacRae Brigade, and especially the famous 26th North Carolina, chronicling the brigade’s formation and growth under Pettigrew and its subsequent exploits under William W. Kirkland and William MacRae. Beyond recounting the brigade’s military engagements, Hess draws on letters, diaries, memoirs, and service records to explore the camp life, medical care, social backgrounds, and political attitudes of these gallant Tar Heels. He also addresses the continuing debate between North Carolinians and Virginians over the failure of Pickett’s Charge.＜/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。 | 2,863円 |

 Fat Rights Dilemmas of Difference and Personhood【電子書籍】[ Anna Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Author Interview on ＜em＞The Brian Lehrer Show＜/em＞＜br /＞ America is a weight-obsessed nation. Over the last decade, there's been an explosion of concern in the U.S. about people getting fatter. Plaintiffs are now filing lawsuits arguing that discrimination against fat people should be illegal. ＜strong＞Fat Rights＜/strong＞ asks the first provocative questions that need to be raised about adding weight to lists of currently protected traits like race, gender, and disability. Is body fat an indicator of a character flaw or of incompetence on the job? Does it pose risks or costs to employers they should be allowed to evade? Or is it simply a stigmatized difference that does not bear on the ability to perform most jobs? Could we imagine fatness as part of workplace diversity? Considering fat discrimination prompts us to rethink these basic questions that lawyers, judges, and ordinary citizens ask before a new trait begins to look suitable for antidiscrimination coverage.＜br /＞ ＜strong＞Fat Rights＜/strong＞ draws on little-known legal cases brought by fat citizens as well as significant lawsuits over other forms of bodily difference (such as transgenderism), asking why the boundaries of our antidiscrimination laws rest where they do. Fatness, argues Kirkland, is both similar to and provocatively different from other protected traits, raising long?standing dilemmas in antidiscrimination law into stark relief. Though options for defending difference may be scarce, Kirkland evaluates the available strategies and proposes new ways of navigating this new legal question.＜br /＞ ＜strong＞Fat Rights＜/strong＞ enters the fray of the obesity debate from a new perspective: our inherited civil rights tradition. The scope is broad, covering much more than just weight discrimination and drawing the reader into the larger context of antidiscrimination protections and how they can be justified for a new group.＜/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。 | 3,868円 |
 MASH Angels: Tales of an Air-Evac Helicopter Pilot in the Korean War Tales of an Air-Evac Helicopter Pilot in the Korean War【電子書籍】[ Richard C. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞An inspiring first-hand account by military aviation pioneer Richard Kirkland recounts how he and a handful of daring helicopter pilots revolutionized battlefield medical evacuation and blazed the trail for modern air-evac flying.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Prior to the Korean War, the helicopter was all but unknown, and rescue was uncertain at best for downed pilots and wounded soldiers stranded behind enemy lines. In MASH ANGELS Richard Kirkland recounts his experiences on the front lines of rescue flying and military medicine. Kirkland, a fighter pilot in the Pacific theatre in World War II, came to helicopter flying after the war almost by accident. Many military higher-ups had little use for this new, “worthless contraption.” But its life-saving performances in the Korean War quickly changed minds. The helicopter was the perfect partner for another revolution in military medical careーthe Mobile Army Surgical Hospital, or MASH, and the book also documents the real-life experiences of the MASH characters so familiar from the hit TV series: the nurses, surgeons (including the real “Hawkeye”), and helicopter pilots who forged a new era in military medical care.＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Helicopters of the Third Air Rescue Group were given credit for picking up 846 pilots and aircrew from behind enemy lines during the Korean War,” writes Richard Kirkland. “Add to that 8,373 soldiers and airmen we snatched from the battlefields and air-taxied to the front-line MASH. Quite a feat for a handful of taxi drivers.”＜/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。 | 2,426円 |
 Ride the Sea【電子書籍】[ Samantha Narelle Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞There have been many books, articles, and several movies detailing the terrors and errors on the night of April 14-15, 1912 when the stunning new passenger liner, H.M.S. Titanic, met with disaster on the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The discovery of the wreck site in 1987, by Dr. Robert Ballard, led to an entirely new round of speculation regarding the whys and wherefores of the demise of this wondrous achievement by Mankind. The book you hold in your hand, Ride the Sea, goes in a different direction, but is inspired by that tragic event. Human beings believe what they want to believe. Their prejudices and rationales are formed by growing up around adults, attending school, competing with their contemporaries, and undergoing personal experiences. Most important among these are, of course, one’s contemporaries. Watching how someone is treated by those you respect or emulate, or simply enjoy being around, solidifies behavior before a person even realizes beliefs are being molded. The same can be said regarding one’s environment. If arrogance guides one’s behavior toward others, it will similarly lead a person astray when confronted with the challenges of Nature. A careless attitude can leave a man exposed to wrath from natural forces even if the day is sunny and calm. In the early 20th Century, making a ship competitive, rather than 100% secure, guided the behavior of their wealthy owners. With the demise of the luxurious, ebullient Titanic, the world would never be quite the same again. Controversies surrounding her sinking remain with us even today. The cold, dark ocean depths retain answers to questions which we are not yet wise enough to ask. Can some of these answers be found today amid the cavorting, chilled waves of the Atlantic Ocean?＜/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。 | 571円 |
 Tales of a Helicopter Pilot【電子書籍】[ Richard C. Kirkland ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Richard Kirkland is legendary for his P-38 Lightning missions in the South Pacific theater during WWII. After the war, he realized the potential of Igor Sikorsky’s new flying machine, and he traded in his fighter-pilot wings for rotors. The nerve-racking chopper missions he has flown are the stuff of legend: scrambling to evacuate president Harry Truman after an unthinkable “code red one” alert comes over his red phone; bantering with the real “Hawkeye” at a MASH unit before flying into North Korea to rescue wounded soldiers. Equally riveting are his accounts of a medevac pilot in Vietnam who lands a ten ton CH-46 “Frog” in the jungle at night, with no lights, under fire, with only a soldier’s cigarette lighter for reference; and an aerial tour pilot who routinely pulls people out of the water above, below, and right before Niagara Falls.＜/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。 | 2,959円 |
