Everyone has probably heard the phrase, "Once in a blue moon," at one time or another in their lifetime. It has traditionally come to mean something that does not happen all that often. No on really knows how the term originated but it has been reported that many hundreds of years ago, an enormous vocanic eruption sent plumes of ash far into the atmosphere which made the moon appear bluish for a period of time. In 1946, an article in the March issue of Sky and Telescope magazine, erroneously reported a "blue" moon as being, "the second full moon in the same calendar month," and that...

In 409 BC, the Greek historian Herodotus described an Athenian soldier who had no physical battle injuries but suffered permanent blindness after seeing the death of a fellow soldier.

After serving two combat tours in Vietnam, Bryan Hamilton returns to his small hometown in rural central Pennsylvania in search of some sense of...

John Budd joins an august group of library-science luminaries, such as Pierce Butler, Jesse Shera, and Michael Gorman, whose works and example invite professional and critical self-examination.

Conflicted Are the Peacemakers: Israeli and Palestinian Moderates and the Death of Oslo
ISBN: 9781628922578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The 1993 Oslo Accords were a key attempt to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict whose failure was largely attributed to extremists on both sides. The book challenges this conventional wisdom by examining the role of Israeli and Palestinian peacemakers themselves in derailing the peace process. Looking at the role of moderates before and after Oslo, the different agreements and peace proposals they negotiated, and their rhetoric, the book shows that these peacemakers retained an inherent ambivalence toward the peace process and one another. This prevented them and their... The 1993 Oslo Accords were a key attempt to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict whose failure was largely attributed to extremists on both sid... |

Employment with a Human Face: Balancing Efficiency, Equity, and Voice
ISBN: 9780801472602 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. John W. Budd contends that the turbulence of the current workplace and the importance of work for individuals and society make it vitally important that employment be given "a human face." Contradicting the traditional view of the employment relationship as a purely economic transaction, with business wanting efficiency and workers wanting income, Budd argues that equity and voice are equally important objectives. The traditional narrow focus on efficiency must be balanced with employees' entitlement to fair treatment (equity) and the opportunity to have meaningful input into decisions...
