  While many falconry books briefly touch on the ethics of the sport, “The Philosophy & Ethics of Falconry” is entirely dedicated to addressing the chief ethical and philosophical questions at the heart of falconry. Readers, whether they are aspiring, new, or experienced falconers (or simply someone intrigued by this unique method of hunting) will be introduced to several philosophical traditions and what wisdom they have to offer for falconry. This book also responds to critics of falconry and offers a robust ethical defense of the sport from an internationally recognized teacher of philosophy and debate. Regardless of the reader’s experience with falconry or style of hawking, everyone will walk away from this book with a richer understanding of what makes the sport worth pursuing and how it fits into an examined, ethical, and worthwhile life.

  The Swift Conquest - Unraveling...

  The rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party did not occur in isolation but was the culmination of a confluence of societal, economic, and political factors. Post-World War I Germany was a nation in turmoil, grappling with humiliation, economic devastation, and political instability. The Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919, placed the blame for the war squarely on Germany's shoulders, imposing severe reparations that crippled its economy. The German people, burdened by hyperinflation, unemployment, and poverty, became disillusioned with the democratic Weimar Republic, which they perceived as weak and ineffectual. 
  Amid this chaos, Hitler emerged as a figure of radical change. A decorated veteran of the First World War, Hitler initially joined the German Workers’ Party, a small and obscure nationalist group. With his fiery oratory skills and an unrelenting focus on propaganda, he quickly rose to prominence, transforming the group into the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP), or the Nazi Party. Hitler’s message was simple yet potent: he promised to restore Germany to greatness, overturn the Treaty of Versailles, and provide a scapegoat for the nation’s suffering—the Jewish people and other minorities. 
  By the early 1920s, Hitler had crafted a political doctrine that combined virulent nationalism, anti-Semitism, and a disdain for democracy. He also sought to exploit the populace’s fears of communism, which was gaining traction in Europe following the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. The failed Beer Hall Putsch in 1923, an attempted coup in Munich, briefly landed Hitler in prison. However, this setback proved instrumental to his ideological development, as he used the time to dictate Mein Kampf, a manifesto outlining his vision for Germany’s future and the expansion of Lebensraum, or "living space," for the German people.

  Wandering the Wards provides a detailed and unflinching ethnographic examination of life within the contemporary hospital. It reveals the institutional and ward cultures that inform the organization and delivery of everyday care for one of the largest populations within them: people living with dementia who require urgent unscheduled hospital care. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on five years of research embedded in acute wards in the UK, the authors follow people living with dementia through their admission, shadowing hospital staff as they interact with them during and across shifts. In a major contribution to the tradition of hospital ethnography, this book provides a valuable analysis of the organization and delivery of routine care and everyday interactions at the bedside, which reveal the powerful continuities and durability of ward cultures of care and their impacts on people living with dementia.

  The history of African-Americans has been complicated and controversial. While some will fight against racism, others deny the severity of it throughout the ages. Whether or not the issue is as serious as it used to be, is a separate topic for debate. 
  In this guide, you will not read much about opinions but about facts. Society has come a long way since the inauguration of slavery and suppression of the minority in the United States. As leaders stood up and laws have been adjusted one by one, more freedoms have been secured to what nowadays constitutes about 10-20% of the population. Whether it’s enough, is another question that divides political enthusiasts. 
  You will learn more about the first slavery, the rise of the cotton market in the southern states, the abolitionism of slavery, the separation, and individuals like Martin Luther King and Malcolm X who have made a significant impact on the common perspective on these issues. Many things have changed over the past two centuries. Let’s find out what.
