Letters from a Son
ISBN: 9781532920585 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. These are the letters sent to my mother, Betty Davis, and father, Wilfred Davis, during my three years and four months in the Marine Corps. The letters from boot camp were written in pencil on a small pocket notebook, usually in five or ten minute spurts. They were jumbled and repetitive and required massive editing to make them readable. I expected to experience a hard three years when I enlisted in the Corps late in 1962. Most of the time I wasn't disappointed. I joined on a "120-Delay Program," along with my high school classmate, Bob Keller. We enlisted in November 1962, shortly after the...

Hamas, Popular Support and War in the Middle East: Insurgency in the Holy Land
ISBN: 9781138927803 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book offers a new understanding of the nature of power-seeking insurgent groups by empirically examining the use of violence by Hamas in the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict. Though Hamas has learned to ride the tides of popular support, it remains suspended between its quest to achieve the values of its ardent supporters (reclamation of land through force) and the desire to grow popular support. This tension is reflected in how and when the group exercises violent resistance. The theoretical framework applied in this volume provides a simple construct to understand the dynamics...

Lives of Indian Images
ISBN: 9780691005201 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For many centuries, Hindus have taken it for granted that the religious images they place in temples and home shrines for purposes of worship are alive. Hindu priests bring them to life through a complex ritual "establishment" that invokes the god or goddess into material support. Priests and devotees then maintain the enlivened image as a divine person through ongoing liturgical activity: they must awaken it in the morning, bathe it, dress it, feed it, entertain it, praise it, and eventually put it to bed at night. In this linked series of case studies of Hindu religious objects, Richard...

ISBN: 9781107052451 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The U.S. Supreme Court seeks to withhold information about its deliberations, while the press's job is to report and disseminate this information.

This volume examines the relationship between justices and the press through chapters that discuss facets such as coverage...
