Playboy Swings How Hugh Hefner and Playboy Changed the Face of Music

Playboy Swings How Hugh Hefner and Playboy Changed the Face of Music
Patty Farmer, "Playboy Swings: How Hugh Hefner and Playboy Changed the Face of Music"
English | ISBN: 0825307880 | 2015 | 393 pages | EPUB | 6 MB
Playboy―the magazine, the empire, the lifestyle―is one of the world's best-known brands. Since the launch of Playboy magazine in 1953, two elements have been remarkably consistent: the first, obviously, is the celebration of nubile, female flesh. The second, readers may be surprised to learn, is Playboy's involvement in the music scene. The Playboy experience was never just about sex but about lifestyle. Music―particularly the finest jazz, a personal passion of Hefner's―has always been an essential component of that lifestyle.

Pentecostal Outpourings Revival and the Reformed Tradition

Pentecostal Outpourings Revival and the Reformed Tradition
Michael A. G. Haykin, Robert Davis Smart, Ian Hugh Clary, "Pentecostal Outpourings: Revival and the Reformed Tradition"
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1601784333 | PDF | pages: 276 | 6.8 mb
When Jesus ascended to heaven and sat down at the right hand of God the Father, He poured out His Holy Spirit at Pentecost. This significant historical and redemptive event was not the last time Christ poured out His Spirit in redemptive history. Mindful of these subsequent acts, Pentecostal Outpourings presents historical research on revivals in the Reformed tradition during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Investigating the British Isles, it observes the outpourings experienced among Welsh Calvinistic Methodists, Irish Dissenters, Calvinistic English Baptists, and Scottish Presbyterians. It then moves on to evaluate the revival instincts among Presbyterians, Congregationalists, Baptists, and the Dutch Reformed in America. May the knowledge of these outpourings of the Holy Spirit help us seek God earnestly to revive His Church once again.

Patent and Trade Disparities in Developing Countries

Patent and Trade Disparities in Developing Countries
Patent and Trade Disparities in Developing Countries By Srividhya Ragavan
2012 | 416 Pages | ISBN: 0199840679 | PDF | 5 MB
For developing countries, the concept of sustainable development, as opposed to rapid pockets of development, embodies great promise for socio-political reasons. Most analyses of development, however, have focused on either trade mechanisms or intellectual-property regimes, which has resultedin overly narrow and sometimes paradoxical conclusions, with corresponding policy measures that have promised far more than they can deliver. While each of these mechanisms has benefits and disadvantages, questions about how they would interact and what kind of results they produce remain largelyunexplored. Similarly, almost all of these regimes provide generalized solutions that developing countries tend to denounce as ill-fitting. There are several flexibilities that can be used as effective tools, but knowing which flexibility applies best to what context remains contentious. In Patentand Trade Disparities in Developing Countries, Srividhya Ragavan examines the interaction between trade and intellectual property regimes (using the patent regime in India as the focal point) in an integrated developmental framework to determine whether and how sustainable economic growth can beachieved in developing countries. This book examines a number of important questions: Is compulsory licensing the best way to provide access to medication or is patent protection more efficient? Should innovation in plant breeding be protected at all? If so, should it be using patents or a suigeneris mechanism?
