  The Criminal Record Complex -...

  Most employers in the United States routinely conduct criminal background checks on job applicants, weeding out those with criminal convictions. In this powerful analysis, Melissa Burch sheds light on one of the most significant forces of social and economic marginalization of our time—discrimination on the basis of criminal records. Chronicling the daily interactions of hiring managers, workforce development professionals, and job-seekers with felony convictions in Southern California, Burch shows that this discrimination is not simply a matter of employer bias. Hiring is shaped by a set of institutions, organizations, and industries that promote the erroneous idea that people with criminal records are dangerous to employ. Burch places today's routine practice of background screening within racialized notions of risk originating in early capitalist development, tracing how, over decades, criminal background checks became a convenient catch-all, leveraged by entities with a direct interest in growing the practice. Despite this reach, however, Burch discovers that small business owners tend to put less value on background checks, trusting their own judgment. Approaching the issue from both personal and policy perspectives, The Criminal Record Complex upends what we thought we knew about the causes of criminal record discrimination.

  This book is dedicated to the women's movement in Iran.
  If you announce that you are going to Iran, someone will certainly advise you not to go. Ignore them – this is one of the most exciting countries on Earth. There is much to discover, and explore in Iran, not only cultural and historical sites but mountains, deserts and wilderness.
  Above all, this is a place defined by the hospitality and curiosity of Iranians despite a totalitarian regime. According to Lonely Planet's Atlas of Adventure –  "it might well be the friendliest country you ever visit".
  The Persian Empire, which once stretched from Greece to India, has left remnants of an extraordinary rich cultural heritage not only in today's Iran but across the Ancient Empire. From Persepolis, the ancient capital of Persia, to the World Heritage sites in Esfahan and Yazd.
  With its 26 World Heritage Sites, Iran is one of the top 10 countries in the world that represent a masterpiece of human creativity and an exceptional testimony to human civilisation.
  It was 13,000 years ago on the Iranian plateau that Homo sapiens first settled with the advent of agriculture and the first permanent human settlement.
  Zoroastrianism, the world's first monotheistic religion, originated in Persia 4,000 years ago.
  The biblical Magi, also known as the Three Wise Men, were respected Zoroastrian astronomers who came from Persia to "visit" the baby Jesus on the night of his birth in Bethlehem!
  The game of chess as we play it today was invented in Iran about 2,000 years ago.
  The algorithm as we use it today in AI and computer science was invented 1,000 years ago in Iran.
  The stories of "Thousand and One Nights" are taken from the Persian Pahlavi work Hezār Afsān over a thousand years ago.
  With this book we will travel to all those wonderful places of 1001 Nights tales. This is our historical and cultural journey of two weeks to discover authentic places of those stories from our childhood!
  And Iran is a safe destination for tourists, despite a totalitarian regime!

  Fiat Money Inflation in France

  "Fiat Money Inflation in France" is a book written by Andrew Dickson White, a prominent historian and diplomat, which explores the causes and consequences of the inflationary period in France during the late 18th century. 
  The book describes the financial crisis that occurred in France during the French Revolution, when the government began printing vast amounts of paper money, known as assignats, to fund its war efforts and other expenditures. The resulting inflation had devastating effects on the economy, causing widespread poverty, social unrest, and political instability. 
  White analyzes the economic and political factors that contributed to the inflation, including the government's reliance on paper money, the lack of fiscal discipline, and the breakdown of the tax system. He also examines the impact of the inflation on various sectors of society, such as farmers, merchants, and workers, and the role of inflation in fueling political radicalism and the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. 
  Overall, "Fiat Money Inflation in France" is a seminal work on the history of money and inflation, and is often cited as a cautionary tale for governments and central banks about the dangers of excessive money creation
