Jim Walsh, "The Replacements: All Over But the Shouting: An Oral History"
English | 2009 | ISBN: 0760334943 | EPUB | pages: 304 | 7.3 mb
Formed in a Minneapolis basement in 1979, the Replacements were a notorious rock 'n' roll circus, renowned for self-sabotage, cartoon shtick, stubborn contrarianism, stage-fright, Dionysian benders, heart-on-sleeve songwriting, and-ultimately-critical and popular acclaim. While rock then and now is lousy with superficial stars and glossy entertainment, the Replacements were as warts-and-all "real" as it got.

Dale Wayne Slusser, "The Ravenscroft School in Asheville: A History of the Institution and Its People and Buildings"
English | 2013 | ISBN: 0786474629 | EPUB | pages: 236 | 10.6 mb
The Ravenscroft School, an Episcopal boarding school in Asheville, North Carolina, 1856 to 1901, had three distinct phases. It was first a "Classical and Theological School" (1856-1864) and then, following the Civil War, a Theological Training School and Associate Mission (1868-1900); in 1887 it split into two departments, a Theological Training School/Associate Mission and Ravenscroft High School for Boys (1887-1901). The purview of this book is from the early days of Asheville (1820s) to the building of Joseph Osborne's mansion in the 1840s (which would eventually house the school), through the years of the school's operation, and thence to the mid-20th century when the campus buildings were sold and repurposed. The book concludes with the efforts by historic preservationists in the late 1970s to save the few remaining buildings. The book includes biographical notes on notable alumni and histories of the churches established by the Ravenscroft Associate Mission and Training School.

The Queerness of Childhood: Essays from the Other Side of the Looking Glass
English | 2022 | ISBN: 134995246X | 448 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 5 MB
This book represents a meeting of queer theorists and psychoanalysts around the figure of the child. Its intention is not only to interrogate the discursive work performed on, and by, the child in these fields, but also to provide a stage for examining how psychoanalysis and queer theory themselves interact, with the understanding that the meeting of these discourses is most generative around the queer time and sexualities of childhood. From the theoretical perspectives of queer theory, psychoanalysis, anthropology, and gender studies, the chapters explore cultural, aesthetic, and historical forms and phenomena that are aimed at, or are about, children, and that give expression to and make room for the queerness of childhood.

Lars Magnusson, "The Political Economy of Mercantilism"
English | 2015 | pages: 243 | ISBN: 0415828791 | PDF | 2,6 mb
Since the days of Adam Smith, Mercantilism has been a hotly debated issue. Condemned at the end of the 18th century as a "false" system of economic thinking and political practice, it has returned paradoxically to the forefront in regard to issues such as the creation of economic growth in developing countries. This concept is often used in order to depict economic thinking and economic policy in early modern Europe; its meaning and content has been highly debated for over two hundred years.

David Moon, "The Plough that Broke the Steppes: Agriculture and Environment on Russia's Grasslands, 1700-1914"
English | 2014 | pages: 340 | ISBN: 0198722877, 0199556431 | PDF | 2,9 mb
This is the first environmental history of Russia's steppes. From the early-eighteenth century, settlers moved to the semi-arid but fertile grasslands from wetter, forested regions in central and northern Russia and Ukraine, and from central Europe. By the late-nineteenth century, they had turned the steppes into the bread basket of the Russian Empire and parts of Europe. But there was another side to this story. The steppe region was hit by recurring droughts, winds from the east whipped up dust storms, the fertile black earth suffered severe erosion, crops failed, and in the worst years there was famine.

The Oil Palm, Fourth Edition By
2003 | 594 Pages | ISBN: 0632052120 | PDF | 8 MB
The oil palm is the world's most valuable oil crop. With palm oil production increasing by more than 50% in the last decade of the twentieth century and set to double in the next twenty years, it has never before been so important to understand the history, use and cultivation of this fascinating crop.There have been many new developments since the third edition of The Oil Palm in 1988, particularly in the fields of clonal propagation, agronomy, breeding and molecular genetics. This new edition has been completely rewritten, and is the first book to record and explore these and many other developments. The book traces the origins and progress of the industry, and describes the basic science underlying the physiology, breeding and nutrition of the oil palm. It covers both cutting-edge research, and wider issues such as genetic modification of the crop, the promise of clonal propagation, and the effects of palm oil on human health. The practical problems of maximising yield of oil and kernels are discussed in relation to the present 'yield gap' and oil extraction rate decline in Malaysia. The oil palm is also compared to the soya bean and other oil crops, and the recent history of the price of oil palm products is considered in the light of this. The Oil Palm makes an essential contribution to oil palm research and will be an indispensable reference and guide for agricultural students, researchers and all those working, worldwide, in the oil palm industry.Content: Chapter 1 The Origin and Development of the Oil Palm Industry (pages 1-26): Chapter 2 The Classification and Morphology of the Oil Palm (pages 27-51): Chapter 3 The Climate and Soils of the Oil Palm?Growing Regions (pages 53-88): Chapter 4 Growth, Flowering and Yield (pages 89-131): Chapter 5 Selection and Breeding (pages 133-199): Chapter 6 Vegetative Propagation and Biotechnology (pages 201-215): Chapter 7 Seed Germination and Nurseries (pages 217-232): Chapter 8 Site Selection and Land Preparation (pages 233-269): Chapter 9 The Establishment of Oil Palms in the Field (pages 271-285): Chapter 10 Care and Maintenance of Oil Palms (pages 287-325): Chapter 11 Mineral Nutrition of Oil Palms (pages 327-389): Chapter 12 Diseases and Pests of the Oil Palm (pages 391-444): Chapter 13 The Products of the Oil Palm and Their Extraction (pages 445-466): Chapter 14 Marketing, Economics, End Use and Human Health (pages 467-477): Chapter 15 Concluding Remarks (pages 479-481):
