Great Balls of Fire-A Unified Theory of Ball Lightning,UFOs, Tunguska and Other Anomalous Lights
ISBN: 9781411612761 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The book describes the discovery of a scientific theory for fireball objects seen in the sky including ball lightning and a type of UFO. For centuries these lights have been seen without a satisfactory explanation. Ball lightning is part of that mystery but easily explained by Coleman's vortex fireball theory which hypothesizes the existence of aerial burners in the sky. The theory suggests vortices can combust a fuel within the confines of vortex breakdown of a vortex. This idea was published by the author in scientific sources and has been demonstrated experimentally at a University...

Progressivism and the World of Reform: New Zealand and the Origins of the American Welfare State
ISBN: 9780700603213 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this major reinterpretation of the Progressive era, Peter Coleman argues that the American welfare state had its origins in what he calls the "world-wide crisis of capitalism." Here and abroad, reformers, no longer content to treat the symptoms of distress, sought to achieve social, political, and economic justice by abandoning laissez faire in favor of governmental intervention. This study thoroughly documents the external forces that shaped the American Progressive movement and shows that the reformers' agenda for change drew heavily on foreign ideas and models as well as the...

Psychological Components of Sustainable Peace
ISBN: 9781489991287 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Scholarship on the psychology of peace has been accumulating for decades. The approach employed has been predominantly centered on addressing and preventing conflict and violence and less on the conditions associated with promoting peace. Concerns around nuclear annihilation, enemy images, discrimination, denial of basic human needs, terrorism and torture have been the focal points of most research. The Psychological Components of a Sustainable Peace moves beyond a prevention-orientation to the study of the conditions for increasing the probabilities for sustainable, cooperative peace. Such a...

Debtors and Creditors in America: Insolvency, Imprisonment for Debt, and Bankruptcy, 1607-1900
ISBN: 9781893122147 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Americans now depend more heavily upon credit than any other society on Earth, or any other time in history. Borrowing has become a way of life for millions of families, and it is hard to imagine a time when charge accounts did not exist. Nonetheless, it would be a mistake to assume that, because a wallet filled with plastic instead of cash is a relatively new phenomenon, Americans have not been borrowers and lenders since the colonization of the New World. Author Peter J. Coleman proves otherwise. In one Form or another -- notes of hand, book credit, commercial paper, mortgages, land...
