古本, フィクション, 文学, 英語で予約する, 洋書【古本】 And She Was - Cindy Dyson (Harper Perennial) 【紙書籍】 9780060597719

タイトル: And She Was著者: Cindy Dyson出版社: Harper Perennial出版日: 2007年01月02日古本非常に良い。端が少し摩耗しているが、汚れのないきれいな本。製本状態は良好。ダスト ジャケットが付属している場合は、それも含まれます。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。Sweeping across centuries and into the Aleutian Islands of Alaska's Bering Sea, And She Was begins with a decision and a broken taboo when three starving Aleut mothers decide to take their fate into their own hands. Two hundred and fifty years later, by the time Brandy, a floundering, trashy, Latin-spewing cocktail waitress, steps ashore in the 1980s, Unalaska Island has absorbed their dark secret--a secret that is both salvation and shame. In a tense interplay between past and present, And She Was explores Aleut history, mummies, conquest, survival, and the seamy side of the 1980s in a fishing boomtown at the edge of the world, where a lost woman struggles to understand the gray shades between heroism and evil, and between freedom and bondage.

＜p＞The Black Panther Party and Transformative Pedagogy: Place-Based Education in Philadelphia, by Omari L. Dyson,is the first scholarly text to detail the social relief efforts of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Branch of the Black Panther Party. Through a postcolonial lens, this story captures the lived resistances, highlights the socio-historical context, and examines the discourse of former members of the Black Panther Party and local residents of Philadelphia from 1968-1974. Overall, this book provides insight from a multiplicity of sources to better capture the identity(-ies) and complexity of the organization. Not only does this text resolve a dearth in the literature that highlights the multiple facets of the Black Panther Party (especially at the local level), but it serves as a template on effective strategies for researchers, educators, and policymakers to implement on their quest for social and educational transformation.＜/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 Gold Stealers【電子書籍】[ Edward Dyson ]

＜p＞The schoolhouse at Waddy was not in the least like any of the trim State＜/p＞ ＜p＞buildings that now decorate every Victorian township and mark every＜/p＞ ＜p＞mining or agricultural centre that can scrape together two or three＜/p＞ ＜p＞meagre classes; it was the result of a purely local enthusiasm, and was＜/p＞ ＜p＞erected by public subscription shortly after Mr. Joel Ham, B.A., arrived＜/p＞ ＜p＞in the district and let it be understood that he did not intend to go＜/p＞ ＜p＞away again. Having discovered that it was impossible to make anything＜/p＞ ＜p＞else of Mr. Joel Ham, Waddy resolved to make a schoolmaster of him. A＜/p＞ ＜p＞meeting was held in the Drovers' Arms, numerous speeches, all much more＜/p＞ ＜p＞eloquently expressive of the urgent need of convenient scholastic＜/p＞ ＜p＞institutions than the orators imagined, were delivered by representative＜/p＞ ＜p＞men, and a resolution embodying the determination of the residents to＜/p＞ ＜p＞erect a substantial building and install Mr. J. Ham, B.A., as headmaster＜/p＞ ＜p＞was carried unanimously.＜/p＞ ＜p＞ ＜/p＞ ＜p＞The original contributors were not expected to donate money towards the＜/p＞ ＜p＞good cause; they gave labour and material. The work of erection was＜/p＞ ＜p＞commenced next day. Neither plans nor specifications were supplied, and＜/p＞ ＜p＞every contributor was his own architect. Timber of all sorts and shapes＜/p＞ ＜p＞came in from fifty sources. The men of the day shift at the mines worked＜/p＞ ＜p＞at the building in the evening; those on the four-o'clock shift put in an＜/p＞ ＜p＞hour or two in the morning, and mates off the night shift lent a hand at＜/p＞ ＜p＞any time during the day, one man taking up the work where the other left＜/p＞ ＜p＞off. Consequently--and as there was no ruling mind and no general＜/p＞ ＜p＞design--the school when finished seemed to lack continuity, so to speak.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As an architectural effort it displayed evidence of many excellent＜/p＞ ＜p＞intentions, but could not be called a brilliant success as a＜/p＞ ＜p＞whole--although one astute Parliamentary candidate did secure an＜/p＞ ＜p＞overwhelming majority of votes in Waddy after declaring the schoolhouse＜/p＞ ＜p＞to be an ornament to the township. The public-spirited persons who＜/p＞ ＜p＞contributed windows, it was tacitly agreed, were quite justified in＜/p＞ ＜p＞putting in those windows according to the dictates of their own fancy,＜/p＞ ＜p＞even if the result was somewhat bizarre. Jock Summers gave a bell hung in＜/p＞ ＜p＞a small gilded dome, and this was fixed on the roof right in the centre＜/p＞ ＜p＞of the building, mainly for picturesque effect; but as there was no rope＜/p＞ ＜p＞attached and no means of reaching the bell--and it never occurred to＜/p＞ ＜p＞anybody to rectify the deficiency--Jock's gift remained to the end merely＜/p＞ ＜p＞an ornamental adjunct. So also with Sam Brierly's Gothic portico. Sam＜/p＞ ＜p＞expended much time and ingenuity in constructing the portico, and it was＜/p＞ ＜p＞built on to the street end of the schoolhouse, although there was no door＜/p＞ ＜p＞there, the only entrance being at the back.＜/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。

An electrifying and traumatic encounter in the sixties crystallized these furious disputes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In 1963 Attorney General Robert Kennedy sought out James Baldwin to explain the rage that threatened to engulf black America. Baldwin brought along some friends, including playwright Lorraine Hansberry, psychologist Kenneth Clark, and a valiant activist, Jerome Smith. It was Smith’s relentless, unfiltered fury that set Kennedy on his heels, reducing him to sullen silence.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Kennedy walked away from the nearly three-hour meeting angry ? that the black folk assembled didn’t understand politics, and that they weren’t as easy to talk to as Martin Luther King. But especially that they were more interested in witness than policy. But Kennedy’s anger quickly gave way to empathy, especially for Smith. “I guess if I were in his shoes…I might feel differently about this country.” Kennedy set about changing policy ? the meeting having transformed his thinking in fundamental ways.＜/p＞ ＜p＞There was more: every big argument about race that persists to this day got a hearing in that room. Smith declaring that he’d never fight for his country given its racist tendencies, and Kennedy being appalled at such lack of patriotism, tracks the disdain for black dissent in our own time. His belief that black folk were ungrateful for the Kennedys’ efforts to make things better shows up in our day as the charge that black folk wallow in the politics of ingratitude and victimhood. The contributions of black queer folk to racial progress still cause a stir. BLM has been accused of harboring a covert queer agenda. The immigrant experience, like that of Kennedy ? versus the racial experience of Baldwin ? is a cudgel to excoriate black folk for lacking hustle and ingenuity. The questioning of whether folk who are interracially partnered can authentically communicate black interests persists. And we grapple still with the responsibility of black intellectuals and artists to bring about social change.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞What Truth Sounds Like＜/em＞ exists at the tense intersection of the conflict between politics and prophecy ? of whether we embrace political resolution or moral redemption to fix our fractured racial landscape.

【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！】Turing's Cathedral The Origins of the Digital Universe【電子書籍】[ George Dyson ]

＜p＞“It is possible to invent a single machine which can be used to compute any computable sequence,” twenty-four-year-old Alan Turing announced in 1936. In ＜em＞Turing’s Cathedral＜/em＞, George Dyson focuses on a small group of men and women, led by John von Neumann at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, who built one of the first computers to realize Alan Turing’s vision of a Universal Machine. Their work would break the distinction between numbers that ＜em＞mean＜/em＞ things and numbers that ＜em＞do＜/em＞ thingsーand our universe would never be the same.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Using five kilobytes of memory (the amount allocated to displaying the cursor on a computer desktop of today), they achieved unprecedented success in both weather prediction and nuclear weapons design, while tackling, in their spare time, problems ranging from the evolution of viruses to the evolution of stars.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dyson’s account, both historic and prophetic, sheds important new light on how the digital universe exploded in the aftermath of World War II. The proliferation of both codes and machines was paralleled by two historic developments: the decoding of self-replicating sequences in biology and the invention of the hydrogen bomb. It’s no coincidence that the most destructive and the most constructive of human inventions appeared at exactly the same time.＜/p＞ ＜p＞How did code take over the world? In retracing how Alan Turing’s one-dimensional model became John von Neumann’s two-dimensional implementation, ＜em＞Turing’s Cathedral＜/em＞ offers a series of provocative suggestions as to where the digital universe, now fully three-dimensional, may be heading next.＜/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＞＜strong＞A lifetime of candid reflections from physicist Freeman Dyson, “an acute observer of personality and human foibles” (＜em＞New York Times Book Review＜/em＞).＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Written between 1940 and the late 1970s, the postwar recollections of renowned physicist Freeman Dyson have been celebrated as an historic portrait of modern science and its greatest players, including Robert Oppenheimer, Richard Feynman, Stephen Hawking, and Hans Bethe. Chronicling the stories of those who were engaged in solving some of the most challenging quandaries of twentieth-century physics, Dyson lends acute insight and profound observations to a life’s work spent chasing what Einstein called those “deep mysteries that Nature intends to keep for herself.” Whether reflecting on the drama of World War II, the moral dilemmas of nuclear development, the challenges of the space program, or the demands of raising six children, Dyson’s annotated letters reveal the voice of one “more creative than almost anyone else of his generation” (Kip Thorne). An illuminating work in these trying times, ＜em＞Maker of Patterns＜/em＞ is an eyewitness account of the scientific discoveries that define our modern age.＜/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！】Leaders in conflict Bush and Rumsfeld in Iraq【電子書籍】[ Stephen Dyson ]

＜p＞Beneath the violence of the US war in Iraq was a subterranean conflict between President Bush and Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld, rooted in their different beliefs and leadership styles. Bush was prepared to pay a high cost in American lives, treasure, and prestige to win. Rumsfeld favoured turning the war over to the Iraqis, and was comfortable with the risk that Iraq would disintegrate into chaos. Only after Bush removed Rumsfeld in late 2006 did he bring US strategy into line with his goals, sending additional troops to Iraq and committing to continued US involvement. In Leaders in conflict, Stephen Benedict Dyson shows that Bush and Rumsfeld thought about international politics, and about leadership, in divergent ways, and demonstrates the impact these differences had on the course of the war. The book is based upon more than two dozen interviews with administration insiders, and will appeal to those interested in the US presidency, US foreign policy, leadership and wartime decision making.＜/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。
