LIFE
88269
Author: Theodore Dalrymple
File Type: pdf
On the street, which was ankle-deep in discarded fast-food wrappings, I saw a woman who had pulled down her slacks and tied a pair of plastic breasts to her bare buttocks, while a man crawled after her on the sidewalk, licking them. At midnight along this street with the sound of rock music pounding insistently out of club doors presided over by steroid-inflated bouncers, among men vomiting into the gutters I saw children as young as six, unattended by adults, waiting for their parents to emerge from their nocturnal recreations. The doctor and consultant psychiatrist Theodore Dalrymple looks at Great Britain - the nation which produced Newton and Darwin, Shakespeare and Dickens, David Hume and Adam Smith - and marvels at what it has become. Its inner cities and council estates are places where the whole gamut of human folly, wickedness, and misery may be perused at leisure... abortions procured by abdominal kung fu children who have children women abandoned by the father of their child a month before or a month after delivery insensate jealousy serial stepfatherhood that leads to sexual and physical abuse of children on a mass scale. This timeless and beautifully-written collection of essays, looking at the collapse of the British way of life from an unashamedly conservative perspective, lays the blame squarely on the shoulders of the liberal intellectuals, who tend not to mean quite what they say, and express themselves more to flaunt the magnanimity of their intentions than to propagate truth. When a well-known criminologist wrote that the normalisation of drug use is parallelled by the normalisation of crime, and criminal behaviour no longer required special explanation, he surely didnt mean that he wouldnt mind if his own children started to shoot up heroin or rob old ladies in the street. Nor would he be indifferent to the intrusion of burglars into his own house. But, of course, it is the poor who are mugged and burgled, not the criminologists. The mans complacency was by no means unusual. A few days earlier I had met a publisher for lunch, and the subject of the general level of culture and education in England came up. The publisher is a cultivated man, widely read and deeply attached to literature, but I had difficulty in convincing him that there were grounds for concern. That illiteracy and innumeracy were widespread did not worry him in the least, because he claimed they had always been just as widespread. (The fact that we now spent four times as much per head on education as we did 50 years ago and were therefore entitled to expect rising rates of literacy and numeracy at the very least did not in the slightest knock him off his perch.) He simply did not believe me when I told him that nine of ten young people between the ages of 16 and 20 whom I met in my practice could not read with facility and were incapable of multiplying six by nine, or that out of several hundreds of them I had asked when the Second World War took place, only three knew the answer. He replied smoothly almost without the need to think, as if he had rehearsed the argument many times that his own son, age seven, already knew the dates of the war. The trouble is, he said in all seriousness, your sample is biased. True enough everyones experience is founded upon a biased sample. But it didnt occur to him to doubt whether his sample of one, the son of a publisher living in a neighbourhood where houses usually cost more than 800,000 really constituted a refutation of my experience of hundreds of cases, an experience borne out by all serious research into the matter. Have you actually ever met any of the kind of people Im talking about? I asked him. Life at the Bottom is full of insight, knowledge and mordant humour, and is a true classic by a great modern writer.** A searing account of life in the underclass and why it persists as it does, written by a British psychiatrist.

VERME
34166
Author: Anthony Bailey
File Type: epub
Vermeer has always been considered the most elusive of great artists, but this book tracks him down in his home town. It takes the reader back to seventeenth-century Delft, in a piece of historical writing that does justice to its now timeless subject. Anthony Bailey makes use of the scholarly research that has accumulated in the last century, as well as recent findings, and then reaches beyond these facts to expose the hidden Vermeer. The result is a vivid, convincing portrait of the Protestant innkeepers son who married a prosperous Catholic girl and had 15 children of whom 11 survived. Vermeer died relatively young and left fewer than 40 pictures. Many of these pictures are indeed masterpieces, and Anthony Bailey examines the scientific expertise which lies behind their calm mystery. He introduces us to Vermeers colleagues and fellow-citizens, and charts his celebrity as it slowly spread out of Holland and encompassed the world. He examines Vermeers effect on many creative and destructive people, including Proust and Hitler. A View of Delft is a highly original attempt to get at Vermeers life and personality, by setting him imaginatively in the context of Delft, its culture and history.

p itemprop=descriptionA finalist for the Edgar Award for Best Fact CrimeOn August 28, 1963the day Martin Luther King Jr. declared I have a dream on the steps of the Lincoln Memorialtwo young white women were murdered in their Manhattan apartment. The so-called Career Girls Murders case sent ripples of fear throughout the city as police scrambled to find the killer. But it also marked the start of a ten-year saga of fear, racial violence, and turmoil in the cityas events progressed from the Harlem riots of the mid-1960s to the Panther Twenty-one trials and police corruption hearings of the early 1970s. The Savage City explores this traumatic decade through the stories of three very different men George Whitmore Jr., an innocent black teenager coerced into confessing to murder Bill Phillips, a brazenly crooked officer whose public testimony sparked the largest scandal in NYPD history and Dhoruba Bin Wahad, a founding member of New Yorks Black Panther Party, caught in the crossfire as the conflict between the Panthers and the police escalated into open warfare.

PAGAN
100573
Author: Kaarina Aitamurto
File Type: pdf
Rodnoverie was one of the first new religious movements to emerge following the collapse of the Soviet Union, its development providing an important lens through which to view changes in post-Soviet religious and political life. Rodnovers view social and political issues as inseparably linked to their religiosity but do not reflect the liberal values dominant among Western Pagans. Indeed, among the conservative and nationalist movements often associated with Rodnoverie in Russia, traditional anti-Western and anti-Semitic rhetoric has recently been overshadowed by anti-Islam and anti-migrant tendencies. Providing a fascinating overview of the history, organisations, adherents, beliefs and practices of Rodnoverie this book presents several different narratives as a revival of the native Russian or Slavic religion, as a nature religion and as an alternative to modern values and lifestyles. Drawing upon primary sources, documents and books this analysis is supplemented with extensive fieldwork carried out among Rodnoverie communities in Russia and will be of interest to scholars of post-Soviet society, new religious movements and contemporary Paganism in general. **

The State of Africa series project was conceived by the Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA) during its 2003-2004 financial year for purposes of mapping out on a regular basis critical issue areas relating to intra- and inter-African as well as extra-African relations. The first and second volumes of the series were published in 2004 and 2008 respectively. Volume 1 The State of Africa Thematic and Factual Review served as an exploratory piece and covered a broad range of issues relating to politics and governance, millennium development goals (MDGs), peace and conflict and regional development. Volume 2 The State of Africa Post-Conflict Reconstruction and Development focused thematically and examined - from critical and comprehensive perspectives - issues associated with post-conflict in Africa. The volume was grounded on the continents quest for conflict prevention, management and resolution as a means of creating an enabling environment for the consolidation of democracy and reconstruction of societies affected by crisis in general and war in particular. This volume, Volume 3 Parameters and Legacies of Governance and Issue Areas takes a multi-pronged and multi-faceted approach to some of these issues by providing in-depth analysis of dynamics at national, regional, continental and international levels. The global transformation in the 1980s and 1990s, which witnessed the crumbling of the Soviet Union, the Warsaw Pact and opened a window of opportunities for East-West bipolar rapprochement, particularly between the United States and Russia, also had impact on Africa at the national, regional and continental levels. Focusing on conceptual units, such as the state, indigenous organisations, regional and continental organisations as well as selected priority issues - in particular gender and empowerment, the global South, and space science - the chapters in the book provide useful insights into the nature and impact of the transformation and its impact on the socio-economic and politico-security situation in Africa.

Over 80 object-oriented recipes to help you create mind-blowing GUIs in Python About This Book ul lUse object-oriented programming to develop amazing GUIs in Pythonl lCreate a working GUI project as a central resource for developing your Python GUIsl lPacked with easy-to-follow recipes to help you develop code using the latest released version of Pythonl ul Who This Book Is For If you are a Python programmer with intermediate level knowledge of GUI programming and want to learn how to create beautiful, effective, and responsive GUIs using the freely available Python GUI frameworks, this book is for you. What You Will Learn ul lCreate amazing GUIs with Pythons built-in Tkinter modulel lCustomize the GUIs by using layout managers to arrange the GUI widgetsl lAdvance to an object-oriented programming style using Pythonl lDevelop beautiful charts using the free Matplotlib Python modulel lUse threading in a networked environment to make the GUIs responsivel lDiscover ways to connect the GUIs to a databasel lUnderstand how unit tests can be created and internationalize the GUIl lExtend the GUIs with free Python frameworks using best practicesl ul In Detail Python is a multi-domain, interpreted programming language. It is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. It is often used as a scripting language because of its forgiving syntax and compatibility with a wide variety of different eco-systems. Its flexible syntax enables developers to write short scripts while at the same time, they can use object-oriented concepts to develop very large projects. Python GUI Programming Cookbook follows a task-based approach to help you create beautiful and very effective GUIs with the least amount of code necessary. This book uses the simplest programming style, using the fewest lines of code to create a GUI in Python, and then advances to using object-oriented programming in later chapters. If you are new to object-oriented programming (OOP), this book will teach you how to take advantage of the OOP coding style in the context of creating GUIs written in Python. Throughout the book, you will develop an entire GUI application, building recipe upon recipe, connecting the GUI to a database. In the later chapters, you will explore additional Python GUI frameworks, using best practices. You will also learn how to use threading to ensure your GUI doesnt go unresponsive. By the end of the book, you will be an expert in Python GUI programming to develop a common set of GUI applications. Style and approach Every recipe in this programming cookbook solves a problem you might encounter in your programming career. At the same time, most of the recipes build on each other to create an entire, real-life GUI applicationAbout the Author Burkhard A. Meier Burkhard A. Meier has more than 15 years of professional experience working in the software industry as a software tester and developer, specializing in software test automation development, execution, and analysis. He has a very strong background in SQL relational database administration, the development of stored procedures, and debugging code. While experienced in Visual Studio .NET C#, Visual Test, TestComplete, and other testing languages (such as CC++), the main focus of the author over the past two years has been developing test automation written in Python 3 to test the leading edge of FLIR ONE infrared cameras for iPhone and Android smart phones as well as handheld tablets. Being highly appreciative of art, beauty, and programming, the author developed GUIs in C# and Python to streamline everyday test automation tasks, enabling these automated tests to run unattended for weeks, collecting very useful data to be analyzed and automatically plotted into graphs and e-mailed to upper management upon completion of nightly automated test runs. His previous jobs include working as a senior test automation engineer and designer for InfoGenesis (now Agilysys), QAD, InTouch Health, and presently, FLIR Systems.
