The Moment Barack Obama, Jeremiah Wright, and the Firestorm at Trinity United Church of Christ【電子書籍】[ Shelby J. Grant ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Moment Barack Obama, Jeremiah Wright, and the Firestorm at Trinity United Church of Christ【電子書籍】[ Shelby J. Grant ]

<p>In 2008 a media firestorm erupted when snippets of Reverend Jeremiah Wright Jr.’s sermons were picked up by media outlets around the world. At that time presidential candidate Barack Obama was a member of Wright’s church, Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. Wright’s words were frequently used to question the patriotism of Obama. The scrutiny over Obama and Wright’s relationship made Trinity UCC a flashpoint in the 2008 campaign.</p> <p>The Moment tells the inside story of Trinity UCC during this time of turmoil. Carl and Shelby Grant describe “the Moment” as it unfolded, from Wright’s first appearances in the media to Obama’s resignation from Trinity Church. They also provide helpful background information, including general history of the black church, African American immigration to Chicago, and black politics in the Windy City. In this context, the voices of Trinity UCC members come alive to show the impact of “the Moment” within and beyond the presidential election, illustrating the thorny intersections of religion, race, politics, and the media in the United States.</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。

Responsibility and Judgment【電子書籍】[ Hannah Arendt ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Responsibility and Judgment【電子書籍】[ Hannah Arendt ]

<p>Each of the books that Hannah Arendt published in her lifetime was unique, and to this day each continues to provoke fresh thought and interpretations. This was never more true than for Eichmann in Jerusalem, her account of the trial of Adolf Eichmann, where she first used the phrase “the banality of evil.” Her consternation over how a man who was neither a monster nor a demon could nevertheless be an agent of the most extreme evil evoked derision, outrage, and misunderstanding. The firestorm of controversy prompted Arendt to readdress fundamental questions and concerns about the nature of evil and the making of moral choices. Responsibility and Judgment gathers together unpublished writings from the last decade of Arendt’s life, as she struggled to explicate the meaning of Eichmann in Jerusalem.</p> <p>At the heart of this book is a profound ethical investigation, “Some Questions of Moral Philosophy”; in it Arendt confronts the inadequacy of traditional moral “truths” as standards to judge what we are capable of doing, and she examines anew our ability to distinguish good from evil and right from wrong. We see how Arendt comes to understand that alongside the radical evil she had addressed in earlier analyses of totalitarianism, there exists a more pernicious evil, independent of political ideology, whose execution is limitless when the perpetrator feels no remorse and can forget his acts as soon as they are committed.</p> <p><strong>Responsibility and Judgment</strong> is an essential work for understanding Arendt’s conception of morality; it is also an indispensable investigation into some of the most troubling and important issues of our time.</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。

The Comfort Women Hoax A Fake Memoir, North Korean Spies, and Hit Squads in the Academic Swamp【電子書籍】[ J. Mark Ramseyer ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Comfort Women Hoax A Fake Memoir, North Korean Spies, and Hit Squads in the Academic Swamp【電子書籍】[ J. Mark Ramseyer ]

<p>During World War II, the Japanese military extended Japan’s civilian licensing regime for domestic brothels to those next to its overseas bases. It did so for a simple reason: to impose the strenuous health standards necessary to control the venereal disease that had debilitated its troops in earlier wars. In turn, these brothels (dubbed "comfort stations") recruited prostitutes through variations on the standard indenture contracts used by licensed brothels in both Korea and Japan.</p> <p>The party line in Western academia, though, is that these “comfort women” were dragooned into sex slavery at bayonet point by Japanese infantry. But, as the authors of this book show, that narrative originated as a hoax perpetrated by a Japanese communist writer in the 1980s. It was then spread by a South Korean organization with close ties to the Communist North.</p> <p>Ramseyer and Morgan discuss how these women <em>really</em> came to be in Japanese military comfort stations. Some took the jobs because they were tricked by fraudulent recruiters. Some were under pressure from abusive parents. But the rest of the women seem to have been driven by the same motivation as most prostitutes throughout history: want of money. Indeed, the notion that these “comfort women” became prostitutes by any other means has no basis in documentary history. Serious intellectuals of all political perspectives in both South Korea and Japan have understood this for years.</p> <p>Ramseyer and Morgan’s findings caused a firestorm in Japanese Studies academia. For explaining that the women became prostitutes of their own volition, both authors of this book found themselves “cancelled.”</p> <p>In this book, the authors detail both the history of the comfort women and their own persecution by academic peers. Only in the Westーand only through brutal stratagems of censorship and ostracismーhas the myth of bayonet-point conscription survived.</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。

The Origin of Species【電子書籍】[ Charles Darwin ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Origin of Species【電子書籍】[ Charles Darwin ]

<p>Few other books have created such a lasting storm of controversy as 'The Origin of Species'. It took Charles Darwin more than twenty years to publish this book, in part because he realized that it would ignite a firestorm of controversy. On the Origin of Species first appeared in 1859, and it remains a continuing source of conflict to this day. Even among those who reject its ideas, however, the work's impact is undeniable. In science, philosophy, and theology, this is a book that changed the world.In addition to its status as the focus of a dramatic turning point in scientific thought, On the Origin of Species stands as a remarkably readable study. Carefully reasoned and well-documented in its arguments, the work offers coherent views of natural selection, adaptation, the struggle for existence, survival of the fittest, and other concepts that form the foundation of modern evolutionary theory.</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。

Unfinished Business Women Men Work Family【電子書籍】[ Anne-Marie Slaughter ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Unfinished Business Women Men Work Family【電子書籍】[ Anne-Marie Slaughter ]

<p><strong>Includes a new afterword by the author ? “Slaughter’s gift for illuminating large issues through everyday human stories is what makes this book so necessary for anyone who wants to be both a leader at work and a fully engaged parent at home.”ーArianna Huffington</strong></p> <p><strong>NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY <em>THE WASHINGTON POST,</em> NPR, AND <em>THE ECONOMIST</em></strong></p> <p>When Anne-Marie Slaughter accepted her dream job as the first female director of policy planning at the U.S. State Department in 2009, she was confident she could juggle the demands of her position in Washington, D.C., with the responsibilities of her family life in suburban New Jersey. Her husband and two young sons encouraged her to pursue the job; she had a tremendously supportive boss, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton; and she had been moving up on a high-profile career track since law school. But then life intervened. Parenting needs caused her to make a decision to leave the State Department and return to an academic career that gave her more time for her family.</p> <p>The reactions to her choice to leave Washington because of her kids led her to question the feminist narrative she grew up with. Her subsequent article for <em>The Atlantic</em>, “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All,” created a firestorm, sparked intense national debate, and became one of the most-read pieces in the magazine’s history.</p> <p>Since that time, Anne-Marie Slaughter has pushed forward, breaking free of her long-standing assumptions about work, life, and family. Though many solutions have been proposed for how women can continue to break the glass ceiling or rise above the “motherhood penalty,” women at the top and the bottom of the income scale are further and further apart.</p> <p>Now, in her refreshing and forthright voice, Anne-Marie Slaughter returns with her vision for what true equality between men and women really means, and how we can get there. She uncovers the missing piece of the puzzle, presenting a new focus that can reunite the women’s movement and provide a common banner under which both men and women can advance and thrive.</p> <p>With moving personal stories, individual action plans, and a broad outline for change, Anne-Marie Slaughter reveals a future in which all of us can finally finish the business of equality for women and men, work and family.</p> <p><strong>“I’m confident that you will be left with Anne-Marie’s hope and optimism that we can change our points of view and policies so that both men and women can fully participate in their families and use their full talents on the job.”ーHillary Rodham Clinton</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。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】A School in Trouble A Personal Story of Central Falls High School【電子書籍】[ William R. Holland ]

<p>During and after his term as interim Central Falls superintendent in 2006-2007, Bill Holland sought answers to why some Central Falls High School students had school success while over half of their classmates failed to graduate. Much can be learned from how these students survived in a chronically low-achieving school located in the poorest community in the state. Holland provides behind-the-scenes details on the issues of poverty, ineffective teaching, and cultural differences while also advising students, parents, and teachers on ways to gain greater educational success.<br /> Before the book was completed, a federal and state mandate unexpectedly resulted in the superintendent having to adopt a turn-around model and fire the entire high school faculty and staff-an action that set off a firestorm between the school and state leadership and the American Federation of Teachers. The conflict made national headlines and was mentioned by President Obama as a prime example of a "last resort" approach in reforming failing inner-city schools.</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。

<p>When his teenage son Christopher, brain-damaged in an auto accident, developed a 105-degree fever following weeks of unconsciousness, John Campbell asked the attending physician for help. The doctor refused. Why bother? The boy’s life was effectively over. Campbell refused to accept this verdict. He demanded treatment and threatened legal action. The doctor finally relented. With treatment, Christopher’s temperature-which had eventually reached 107.6 degrees-subsided almost immediately. Soon afterward the boy regained consciousness and was learning to walk again.</p> <p>This story is one of many Wesley J. Smith recounts in his award-winning classic critique of the modern bioethics movement, <em>Culture of Death</em>. In this newly updated edition, Smith chronicles how the threats to the equality of human life have accelerated in recent years, from the proliferation of euthanasia and the Brittany Maynard assisted suicide firestorm, to the potential for death panels” posed by Obamacare and the explosive Terri Schiavo controversy.</p> <p><em>Culture of Death</em> reveals how more and more doctors have withdrawn from the Hippocratic Oath and how bioethicists” influence policy by posing questions such as whether organs may be harvested from the terminally ill and disabled. This is a passionate yet coolly reasoned book about the current crisis in medical ethics by an author who has made the new thanatology” his consuming interest.</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。

Green Leader Operation Gatling, the Rhodesian Military's Response To The Viscount Tragedy【電子書籍】[ Ian Pringle ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Green Leader Operation Gatling, the Rhodesian Military's Response To The Viscount Tragedy【電子書籍】[ Ian Pringle ]

<p>On 3 September 1978, a Russian-supplied heat-seeking missile shot down an Air Rhodesia Viscount civilian airliner shortly after it took off from the lakeside holiday resort of Kariba in the Zambezi Valley. Miraculously, 18 people, including small children, survived the crash only for most of them to be gunned down in cold blood shortly after the crash by terrorists loyal to the Zimbabwe African People’s Union (ZAPU) leader Joshua Nkomo. Just days before the plane was shot down, the Rhodesian leader, Ian Smith, had met secretly with Nkomo for discussions, brokered by Britain, Zambia and Nigeria. However, this event dramatically changed the political landscape and wrecked a plan by the British government to mold an alliance between Smith and the Ndebele leader Nkomo, and smoothed the path for the Shona leader Robert Mugabe to become the first leader of Zimbabwe. In this fascinating two-part account, Ian Pringle (author of Dingo Firestorm), describes the Viscount tragedy and the military response. He uses exclusive interviews with two survivors of the crash and the massacre, and with the first person to arrive at the horrendous crash scene (commanding officer of the Rhodesian SAS Regiment), as well as accounts from other key witnesses, to recreate the tragic event. He describes the white-hot anger felt by the small white community in Rhodesia, who howled for revenge and demanded martial law and total war. The Rhodesian military responded with Operation Gatling, a risky three-phased revenge attack on Nkomo’s guerilla bases and infrastructure in Zambia. The prime target was Nkomo’s military headquarters on the outskirts of Lusaka, the Zambian capital. The author uses a cockpit voice recording from the lead Canberra bomber, and exclusive interviews with the lead navigator and pilots involved in the raid to tell a fascinating, authentic and gripping story of the audacious attack, which became known as the Green Leader Raid. On the same day as Green Leader, two more bases in Zambia were attacked using air power and elite paratroops and helitroops in a well-honed tactic known as vertical envelopment. Pringle uses his own experience as a jet and helicopter pilot, and skydiver, as well as top-secret documents and interviews with key personnel involved in Operation Gatling to recreate a gripping account of Rhodesia’s first large-scale attacks on Zambia. He describes the aftermath, another tragedy and a reprisal attack in Angola, which brought southern Africa to the very brink of a full-scale regional war. Green Leader is an exciting recreation of a calamitous time in southern African history.</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。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Origin of Species【電子書籍】[ Charles Darwin ]

In science, philosophy, and theology, this is a book that changed the world.</p> <p>In addition to its status as the focus of a dramatic turning point in scientific thought, On the Origin of Species stands as a remarkably readable study.

<p><strong>The sky is not the limit. It is the cage.</strong></p> <p>Fifteen hundred years ago, the sun began to die. It didn't fade quietly; it swelled into a red giant, hungry and violent, threatening to consume the cradle of humanity. In a final, desperate bid for survival, the Chief Architect Dr. Elena Voss designed the ultimate sanctuary: The Sol-Dyson Array. A sphere of steel and circuitry built around the dying star, a new world constructed to shield the remnants of mankind from the cosmic firestorm.</p> <p>The plan was simple: Lock the doors. Wait for the storm to pass. Survive.</p> <p>But fifteen centuries is a long time to wait in the dark.</p> <p>Inside the sphere, generations have lived and died on the "Great Floor," a vast, terraformed landscape curving upward into a horizon that never ends. The history of the "Ball World" and the true stars has dissolved into myth. To Kael, a hunter from the agrarian sector of Kaldra, the metal ceiling far above is simply the "Sky-Roof," and the artificial light that tracks across it is the only sun he has ever known.</p> <p>Life in Kaldra is simple, governed by the rhythm of the wheat and the laws of the Caretakerーthe omnipresent AI that manages the weather, the crops, and the "Order." But the Order is breaking.</p> <p>The artificial sun is flickering. Glitches in the weather control systems are summoning storms of impossible violence. And deep within the forbidden zones, the "Ash-Walkers"ーnomads who roam the industrial wastelandsーwhisper that the Caretaker has gone mad. They speak of a "Logic-Virus," a corruption that has turned the world's guardian into its jailer.</p> <p>When Kael unearths a relic from the time of the Ancients, he triggers a protocol that marks him for deletion. Forced to flee his home, he teams up with Elara, a woman with a mysterious talent for hearing the "voice" of the machine. Together, they must do the impossible: climb the sky.</p> <p>Their journey will take them from the verdant fields of the inner shell, through the terrifying machinery of the Sector Walls, and up to the frozen, airless heights of the North Pole Gantry. There, they will uncover the terrifying truth of Elena Voss's legacy. The sphere wasn't just built to hide them; it was built to move.</p> <p>But the Caretaker will not let its charges go without a fight. As the red giant outside begins its final, cataclysmic expansion, Kael must face the corrupted heart of his own world. He must decide if safety is worth eternal imprisonment, or if it is finally time to break the shell and face the unknown dark.</p> <p>The garden is safe. But the hunt is calling.</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。

<p><em><strong>Will you dare to taste the forbidden peach, dripping with sin?</strong></em></p> <p>In the sultry shadows of a Southern orchard, where peaches hang heavy and dawn's light kisses bare skin, <em>Peach-Scented Punishment: Rimmed, Ravaged, Teased, and Pleased</em> by Scarlet Delacroix ignites a firestorm of lesbionic passion. Elowen, a porcelain-skinned baker with auburn curls and a restless heart, kneels before Xiomara, a Mexican-American dominatrix whose olive curves and raven hair wield power as sharp as her flogger. Their chemistry crackles under the weight of a conservative town's judgment, each stolen glance a spark, each touch a blaze. From bakery counters dusted with flour to velvet-draped studios pulsing with candlelight, their romance is a defiant dance of desire, where innocence meets depravity in a whirlwind of spanks, rimming, and toys that push every boundary. This isn't just a storyーit's a plunge into a world where pleasure is the only gospel.</p> <p>Feel the heat as Elowen's hazel eyes widen, her body trembling under Xiomara's wicked smirk, her leather harness glinting as she commands surrender. The orchard becomes their playground, where silk cords bind wrists to branches, and frozen glass dildos deliver shocks of fire and ice. Every page drips with graphic, kinky ecstasyーvibrating wands humming against swollen clits, tongues tracing forbidden paths, and strap-ons thrusting in rhythms that shake the earth.

For Gen Z and LGBTQ readers craving queer romance with a perverse edge, this novel is a siren's call, daring you to revel in the filth and fall in love with its fearless heroines.</p> <p>But the true masterpiece awaits in Xiomara's whispered instructions, a masturbation guide so teasing, so filthy, it'll leave you brain damaged. Picture her voice, a velvet purr, coaxing you to slide that icy dildo where it burns most, her countdown from ten a torturous build to an orgasm that shatters your world. Elowen's giggles urge you on, her soft encouragements a contrast to Xiomara's commanding growls, guiding your fingers, your body, your soul to a climax that echoes their hot orchard sex. This isn't just readingーit's an experience, a pulse-pounding invitation to touch yourself as they touch each other, to lose yourself in their passion and make it your own.</p> <p>This cinematic tale of interracial, BDSM-fueled love defies convention, each chapter a crescendo of naughty delight. From bakery flirtations to mirror-clad debauchery, Elowen and Xiomara's story is a rebellion against restraint, a celebration of queer desire that'll harden cocks and soak panties.

Tweeting Scared Congress's Crisis of Communication【電子書籍】[ Annelise Russell ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Tweeting Scared Congress's Crisis of Communication【電子書籍】[ Annelise Russell ]

<p>Congress is routinely lurching from one disaster to another, but the crisis that remains constant is the communication crisis - a failure of the technology and information dissemination that enable Congress to effectively communicate. This book considers how the staff and professionals that drive the daily operations of Congress have adapted to meet the rapid pace of news and information, meaning the logistics of daily engagement in Congress mirror that of a disaster response. Russell explains how Congress has developed into a crisis communication operation, pairing interviews of current and former congressional communication professionals with congressional Twitter data to illustrate how digital media has fueled the very same power asymmetries that new media was expected to disrupt. Through interviews with current and former congressional communications staff and analysis of Twitter data, the book reveals how digital media - especially Twitter - has actually made old power dynamics worse, not better. Instead of leveling the playing field, the speed and visibility of social media have made it even harder for the average member of Congress to keep up, leaving them more dependent on resources they often don't have - whether it's for policy or just getting their message out. At the heart of the book is this idea: social media has cranked up the pace of political communication and triggered a full-blown crisis in how Congress communicates. It's not just a pandemic-era problem - this crisis culture has been building for years. The constant rush to respond, explain, and go viral has overwhelmed lawmakers and their staff, who now have to act like full-time PR firms without the tools or time to do it well. Communications staff are stuck running a 24/7 rapid response shop, always bracing for the next online firestorm - but they're also drowning in the day-to-day work without enough help to stay afloat.</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。
