<p>Warwick in the Great War is a detailed account of how the experiences of war impacted on the garrison town from the outbreak of the Great War in 1914, to the long-awaited Armistice in 1918, and its immediate aftermath. The troops went off to war, cheered and supported by their friends and family, all in a high holiday mood, but underneath this jovial faade, their loved ones knew that some of the men would never return. Yet life went on, albeit with progressive and totally new experiences. As the war stagnated, Warwick`s citizens offered practical support for troops both at home and abroad. How did they cope with returning wounded troops, and where did they go? Tribunals decided who should be given exemption from military service: difficult decisions, especially when food economies and the conscription of farm labourers were involved. Rationing was inevitable, but how was it enforced? What happened after the Army Pay Corps moved to Warwick? And then there is the question of the treatment of Prisoners of War, both in Germany and at home.Using contemporary accounts, the author explores a little-known piece of Warwick`s history. Mainly looking at life on the home front, included are some extracts from the letters serving soldiers sent home, allowing these heroic men who lived through these momentous events, to tell their stories in their own words.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Warwick in the Great War【電子書籍】[ Graham Sutherland ] 1,232 円

<p>This book describes in considerable detail the people, events ships and aircraft that shaped the Air Service from its origins in the late 19th century to its demise in 1945. The formative years began when a British Naval Mission was established in Japan in 1867 to advise on the development of balloons for naval purposes. After the first successful flights of fixed-wing aircraft in the USA and Europe, the Japanese navy sent several officers to train in Europe as pilots and imported a steady stream of new models to evaluate.During World War One Japan became allied with the UK and played a significant part in keeping the German fleets of ships and submarines at bay in the Pacific and Indian Oceans. However, in the international naval treaties that followed they felt betrayed, since the number of capital ships, battleships and cruisers, that they were allowed was below those of the USA and the UK.Aircraft carriers were not included, so a program of carrier building was started and continued until World War Two. At the same time they developed an aircraft industry and at the beginning of war their airplanes were comparable, and in some instances superior, to those of the British and Americans.Much prewar experience was gained during Japans invasion of China, but their continued anger with America festered and resulted in their becoming allied with Germany, Italy and the Vichy France during World War Two. There followed massive successful attacks on Pearl Harbor, the Philippines, the Southern Islands, Port Darwin and New Guinea.The British were decimated and the USA recoiled at the onslaught, taking over a year to regroup and take the war to the Imperial Japanese forces. Throughout the conflict many sea battles were fought and the name Zero became legendary. When Japan eventually capitulated after the Atomic bombs were dropped the Japanese Imperial Air Service was disbanded.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Rise and Fall of the Japanese Imperial Naval Air Service【電子書籍】[ Peter J.

<p>Insurgencies in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen and elsewhere the majority linked to al Qaeda are in the news on an almost daily basis. But very little surfaces about a festering insurgency that has been on the go for six years in West Africa under the acronym of AQIM, or al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb. This low-level series of guerrilla conflicts is widespread and sporadic, covering an area as vast as Europe. Nigeria has been drawn into the equation because its Boko Haram insurgent faction maintains close ties with AQIM and Islamic State.For now though, the focus is on Mali where several jihadist groups despite formal peace agreements remain active. Involved is the French army and air force as well as the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA), the European Union Training Mission in Mali (EUTM) as well as the European Union Capacity Building Mission (EUCAP).The insurrection that fostered all this broke out early 2012 when President Franois Hollande announced the beginning of Operation Serval. Five hours later the first squadrons of French Gazelle helicopter gunships began attacking Islamist columns. A day later French fighter jets based in Chad, almost 2,000 kilometers away, were making sorties against rebel ground targets in northern Mali.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb Shadow of Terror over The Sahel, from 2007【電子書籍】[ Al J.

<p>Calderdale has gone down in the annals of crime in England as the birthplace of Christie of Rillington Place, and as the haunt of the Yorkshire Ripper. But there is much more in the criminal history of the Halifax area to interest the reader with a taste for true crime. As a town with a shifting population of labour for the new mills of the Industrial Revolution, Halifax in the nineteenth century was a focus for urban disorder and lawbreaking. This book tells some of the tales from this period of social history, and from earlier times, when feuds and brutal punishment for crime were the order of the day.Here are the accounts of murders within the family, but also sad suicides and tragic assaults, public riots and violent vendettas. Every northern town has its darkunderbelly beneath the visible civic progress and commercial achievements Halifax and the cluster of towns nearby have had plenty of this nasty side of history, and these pages recount some of the most heinous and vicious crimes recorded between the anarchy of the Middle Ages and the dark twentieth century. The author, a graduate of Leeds University, is a social historian with a special interest in the chronicles of law and crime in the north. He has been a lecturer at the University of Huddersfield and has edited a number of books on literature and history with a regional context. He is currently working on Unsolved Yorkshire Murders, also published by Wharncliffe Books. He is planning to teach a course on the writing of crime in local history at the University of Nottingham.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Foul Deeds & Suspicious Deaths in & Around Halifax【電子書籍】[ Stephen Wade ] 880 円

<p>Goda and her friends are ready to start the sacred ritual. When they arrive at the banks of the Yamuna, they notice that their ten friendsare missing. They go in search of their ten friends.The essence of ThiruppAvai is that ANDAL observed the month- long Paavai vratam to perform eternal service to Lord Krishna and gain the ultimate fruit of gaining Lord Krishna as Her husband.Everyone should learn the essence of the Bagawad Gita but, with over 700 slokams in the Bagawad Gita, it's not an easy text to study; but, what if there was a simpler way to learn the Bagawad Gita?Thiruppavai - Goda's Gita offers an easier way to learn the essence of the Bagawad Gita.The Bagawad Gita is the essence of the Upanishads, part of the Sanskrit Vedas. The Sanskrit Vedas are called as 'marai" in Tamil because it is not easy to decipher the meaning of the verses easily as they contain many hidden meanings. The AzhwAr Saints revealed the meaning of the Vedic Verses in Tamil. They composed the pasurams in such a way that it is easy to understand the meaning of the Sanskrit Vedas.The Thiruppavai is an anthology, part of the Tamil Vedas called 4000 Divya Prabandhams. It was composed by Andal (Goda Nachiar) who is none other than Goddess Bhumi Devi. ThiruppAvai has 30 Paasurams and it is eulogised as GodhOpanishad since it summarizes the sacred meanings of the Upanishads in just 30 verses. The Dhanur Maasa also called Margazhi Maasa in Tamil is dedicated to studying Thiruppavai. The author has brought out the commentary of the Godopanishad in the format of a novel " conversation between Goda and her friends. The commentary is based on formal lectures attended by the author.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Thiruppavai - Goda's Gita Volume 3 Thiruppavai - Goda's Gita, #3【電子書籍】[ Swetha Sundaram ] 900 円

<p>Cities in the North Atlantic coal and steel belt embodied industrial power in the early twentieth century, but by the 1970s, their economic and political might had been significantly diminished by newly industrializing regions in the Global South. This was not simply a North American phenomenonーthe precipitous decline of mature steel centers like Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Hamilton, Ontario, was a bellwether for similar cities around the world.</p> <p>Contemporary narratives of the decline of basic industry on both sides of the Atlantic make the postindustrial transformation of old manufacturing centers seem inevitable, the product of natural business cycles and neutral market forces. In <em>Remaking the Rust Belt</em>, Tracy Neumann tells a different story, one in which local political and business elites, drawing on a limited set of internationally circulating redevelopment models, pursued postindustrial urban visions. They hired the same consulting firms; shared ideas about urban revitalization on study tours, at conferences, and in the pages of professional journals; and began to plan cities oriented around services rather than manufacturingーall well in advance of the economic malaise of the 1970s.</p> <p>While postindustrialism remade cities, it came with high costs. In following this strategy, public officials sacrificed the well-being of large portions of their populations. <em>Remaking the Rust Belt</em> recounts how local leaders throughout the Rust Belt created the jobs, services, leisure activities, and cultural institutions that they believed would attract younger, educated, middle-class professionals. In the process, they abandoned social democratic goals and widened and deepened economic inequality among urban residents.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Remaking the Rust Belt The Postindustrial Transformation of North America【電子書籍】[ Tracy Neumann ] 3,040 円

<p>This pivot considers the use of porcelain vessels within multi-dialect cultural spaces in the consumption of cooked food in Singapore. In a place of ubiquitous hawker centres and kopitiams (coffee shops), the potteries used to serve hawker foods have a strong presence in the culinary culture of Singaporeans. The book looks at the relationship between those utensils, the food/drinks that are served as well as the symbolic, historical, socio-cultural and socioeconomic implications of using different kinds of porcelain/pottery wares. It also examines the indigenization of foreign foods in Singapore, using two case studies of hipster food ? Japanese and Korean. While authentic Japanese and Korean cuisines find resonance amongst the youths of East Asia, some of them have adapted hybrid local features in terms of sourcing for local ingredients due to costs and availability factors. The book considers how these foods are hybridized and indigenized to suit local tastes, fashion and trends, andoffers a key read for East Asian specialists, anthropologists and sociologists interested in East Asian societies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Indigenization and Hybridization of Food Cultures in Singapore【電子書籍】[ Tai Wei Lim ] 6,076 円

What he finds there is a personal, pervasive, and self-diminishing dis-ease impacting the lives of millions of people--shame. With this insight, Atonement for a Sinless Society seeks a fresh encounter with the biblical narrative, building a more meaningful understanding of the story of Jesus and his disciples for the world in which we live; bringing the Christian understanding of atonement into the twenty-first century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Atonement for a Sinless Society Second Edition【電子書籍】[ Alan Mann ] 2,136 円

<p>When Jesus spoke at his local synagogue he boldly proclaimed that he was the one sent to free those who were oppressed. He came to provide hope, peace, and safety to those suffering in the world. When he left this earth, his followers were left with the task of continuing this ministry. Statistics suggest that in America one in four women has experienced physical violence in an intimate relationship. Dating violence, intimate-partner violence, and child abuse rank as some of our nation's largest problems. Men are also being abused by intimate partners, parents, or care providers at increasing rates. The statistic is even more alarming worldwide. Unfortunately, these statistics represent only reported incidents. The rates of verbal, emotional, and spiritual abuse are even higher. In addition, countless women are encouraged by clergy to return to their abusive spouses. The faith community, while called by God to free the oppressed, has been slow to respond to this sin against humanity. Few seminaries offer quality domestic-violence-prevention training for clergy. However, clergy still continue to be sought for help from the community and as advocates for victims of domestic violence. A partnership between the church and community (locally and abroad) is necessary if we wish to transform humans caught in this form of oppression. In Setting the Captives Free Ron Clark proposed a theology of addressing domestic violence and its application for clergy. Freeing the Oppressed is a book that seeks to condense Clark's previous work into a readable form for those seeking spiritual answers concerning abuse and batterer intervention, and for helpers of those caught in the cycle of family violence. It is also designed as an outreach for those seeking help from the faith community.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Freeing the Oppressed A Call to Christians Concerning Domestic Abuse【電子書籍】[ Ron Clark ] 2,351 円

<p>The four Hanoverian King Georges may have become fixed in history as 'faintly absurd, certainly unattractive, figures' but in this colourful account of their lives and times, families and courts, Christopher Sinclair-Stevenson restores a sprinkling of credit where it has been due. His account does not neglect the marital discords of George I, the towering paternal disdain of George II or the tragically misunderstood 'madness' of George III. But the reader is also encouraged to consider how the Hanoverian monarchs reacted to the climate of art and fashion in their times, from George II's espousal of Handel to George IV's patronage of Beau Brummell. By its own admission not a comprehensive history, Blood Royal is nevertheless an elegant and shining string of linked vignettes and short studies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Blood Royal The Illustrious House of Hanover【電子書籍】[ Christopher Sinclair-Stevenson ] 2,080 円

<p>Over the centuries, Baptists have labored to follow Christ in faithful devotion and service. More recently, they have occasionally partnered with fellow Christians from other traditions in these efforts while learning from each other along the way. In Thinking With the Church, Derek Hatch argues that Baptists need to follow the same pattern when it comes to their theological reflection, engaging the wisdom of all Christian pilgrims across time. This will require a new theological method--ressourcement--that embraces Baptists' place within the Great Tradition of the Christian faith. Such work will not abandon long-held Baptist convictions but offers resources for renewing Baptists' theological vision as they participate in the fullness of the mystical body of Christ.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Thinking With the Church Toward a Renewal of Baptist Theology【電子書籍】[ Derek C.

<p>Whether people realize it or not, the ideas in 1 Corinthians 11:2-16 have had a huge impact on the role of Christian women in the church through the centuries. These fifteen verses have shaped worship practices, church structures, church leadership, marriages, and even relationships between men and women in general. They have contributed to practices that have consistently placed women in a subordinate role to men, and have been used to justify the idea that a woman should not occupy a leadership or teaching position without being under the authority or "covering" of a man. It is strange, therefore, that academics and pastors alike continue to note how confusing and difficult it continues to be to make sense of these very verses. In this little book, Lucy Peppiatt not only highlights the problems associated with using this text to justify the subordination of women, but offers a clear and plausible re-reading of the text that paints the apostle Paul as a radical, visionary, church planter who championed women in all forms of leadership.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Unveiling Paul’s Women Making Sense of 1 Corinthians 11:2?16【電子書籍】[ Lucy Peppiatt ] 1,923 円

<p>God's Focus on the Fatherless is an excellent thematic study guide offering a fresh perspective to leaders of local churches who desire to be in tune with God's heart for the marginalized within our communities. God's repeated exhortations (i.e., fatherhood, brokenness, compassion, authority, relationship, presence, justice . . .) are brought to the fore in a focused study that will expand the Christian understanding of God's compassionate heart for the least among us. The principles are timeless and presented in a format accessible to leaders and students of the Bible alike. The fresh perspective is sure to cause a greater ownership of ministry in both the local church and the local community. The "fatherless" principles presented will facilitate positive personal and corporate changes in a church's unique ministry setting. Pastor Chaplain Dwight Croy brings his rich Christian upbringing and experience in the pastorate, chaplaincy, and teaching juvenile boys in a residential setting to guide instruction concerning God's address of the fatherless. This study fits nicely into a twelve-week period and is formatted and prepared for teaching in a small group setting. The study will inspire fervent discussion and then move quickly to practical application.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 God’s Focus on the Fatherless A Lens to Inform Spiritual Impact in the Local Church【電子書籍】[ Dwight David Croy ] 2,457 円

<p>Short-term or working memory - the capacity to hold and manipulate information mentally over brief periods of time - plays an important role in supporting a wide range of everyday activities, particularly in childhood. Children with weak working memory skills often struggle in key areas of learning and, given its impact on cognitive abilities, the identification of working memory impairments is a priority for those who work with children with learning disabilities.</p> <p><em>Working Memory and Neurodevelopmental Disorders</em> supports clinical assessment and management of working memory deficits by summarising the current theoretical understanding and methods of assessment of working memory. It outlines the working memory profiles of individuals with a range of neurodevelopmental disorders (including Down's syndrome, Williams syndrome, Specific Language Impairment, and ADHD), and identifies useful means of alleviating the anticipated learning difficulties of children with deficits of working memory.</p> <p>This comprehensive and informative text will appeal to academics and researchers in cognitive psychology, neuropsychology and developmental psychology, and will be useful reading for students in these areas. Educational psychologists will also find this a useful text, as it covers the role of working memory in learning difficulties specific to the classroom.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Working Memory and Neurodevelopmental Disorders【電子書籍】 8,945 円

<p><strong>Spend 24 hours with the ancient Athenians. See the city through their eyes as it teeters on the edge of the fateful war that would end its golden age.</strong></p> <p><strong>Athens, 416 BC. A tenuous peace holds.</strong> The city-state’s political and military might are feared throughout the ancient world; it pushes the boundaries of social, literary and philosophical experimentation in an era when it has a greater concentration of geniuses per capita than at any other time in human history. Yet even geniuses go to the bathroom, argue with their spouse and enjoy a drink with friends.</p> <p>Few of the city’s other inhabitants enjoy the benefits of such a civilized society, though ? as multicultural and progressive as Athens can be, many are barred from citizenship. No, for the average person, life is about making ends meet, whether that be selling fish, guarding the temple or smuggling lucrative Greek figs.</p> <p>During the course of a day we meet 24 Athenians from all strata of society ? from the slave-girl to the councilman, the vase painter to the naval commander, the housewife to the hoplite ? and get to know what the real Athens was like by spending an hour in their company. We encounter a different one of these characters every chapter, with each chapter forming an hour in the life of the ancient city. We also get to spy on the daily doings of notable Athenians through the eyes of regular people as the city hovers on the brink of the fateful war that will destroy its golden age.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 24 Hours in Ancient Athens A Day in the Life of the People Who Lived There【電子書籍】[ Dr Philip Matyszak ] 970 円

<p>Today's emphasis on metrics and personalization make evidence-based instruction an imperative.

Brown's Ted Talk, and educational psychology research;</li> <li>the science behind information overload; and</li> <li>a balanced framework for evaluating specific educational technology tools.</li> </ul> <p>Fusing theory with practice, this handbook is a valuable resource to help every practitioner connect with learners more effectively.</p> <p>The authors blog at <a href="rulenumberoneblog.com/">Rule Number One: A Library Blog</a>.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Learner-Centered Pedagogy Principles and Practice【電子書籍】[ Kevin Michael Klipfel ] 5,448 円

<p><strong>EL RELATO DE UN EXTRAORDINARIO VIAJE EN FURGO POR LA ESPA?A OLVIDADA.</strong></p> <p><strong>?Conoces de verdad tu pa?s?</strong></p> <p>Eso es lo que me pregunt? hace un a?o... y la respuesta me sorprendi?.</p> <p>S?, hab?a estado en muchos sitios. La periferia de la Pen?nsula no me resultaba ajena, pero el interior era un inmenso agujero negro horadado aqu? y all? por las luces de alguna ciudad.</p> <p><strong>As? que me propuse remediarlo.</strong></p> <p>Me compr? una <strong>furgo adaptada como vivienda</strong> y me lanc? a recorrer el interior de Espa?a. Durante ochenta d?as visit? <strong>pueblos, castillos, parques naturales y yacimientos arqueol?gicos</strong>, habl? con la gente, investigu? mil historias y me asom? a un mundo que me resultaba curiosamente familiar y, al mismo tiempo, completamente desconocido.</p> <p>El resultado lo tienes en tus manos: un acercamiento a la historia, la geograf?a y la actualidad de un pa?s mucho m?s grande, rico y complejo de lo que siempre nos contaron. Un pa?s que desborda riqueza patrimonial, arqueol?gica, hist?rica y cultural, repleto de rincones asombrosos, pero tambi?n despoblado y solitario. Un pa?s profundamente hermoso que merece la pena recorrer a fondo, perdi?ndose por sus rincones y buceando en su extraordinario pasado.</p> <p><strong>?Te vienes de viaje por la Espa?a olvidada?</strong></p> <p>.</p> <p><strong>QU? VAS A ENCONTRAR</strong></p> <ul> <li>Lugares maravillosos y desconocidos a los que escapar en cualquier momento.</li> <li>Un recorrido por el interior olvidado de un pa?s inmenso.</li> <li>Una mirada curiosa que se lo replantea todo.</li> <li>Mucha historia de Espa?a, bien contada y entretenida.</li> <li>El d?a a d?a de un viaje repleto de an?cdotas y sorpresas.</li> <li>Ilusi?n, toneladas de ilusi?n.</li> </ul> <p>.</p> <p><strong>SOBRE FRAN ZABALETA</strong></p> <p>Apasionado por la historia, la literatura y los viajes, me he pasado la vida escribiendo y contemplando el mundo a trav?s de los libros, hasta que me di cuenta de que la verdadera aventura est? en el camino, justo detr?s del siguiente cruce. Ahora viajo en mi furgo, la Lagartija, y escribo sobre lo que vivo.</p> <p>.</p> <p><strong>LO QUE DICEN LOS LECTORES</strong></p> <p>? Me dejas con la boca abierta, entre otras cosas por la extraordinaria manera en la que te expresas. Me han gustado mucho tus l?neas, y como te sinceras tan abiertamente. ?Qu? bonito escribes Fran! <strong>Ana</strong></p> <p><strong>.</strong></p> <p>? ??Qu? viaje m?s apasionante nos has hecho vivir!! Hemos disfrutado de cada cielo azul, nos hemos re?do a cascoporro con tu humor ir?nico, tan particular. ?Eres tremendo! <strong>Mar?a Luz Lama P?rez</strong></p> <p>.</p> <p>? Lo acabo de terminar y ya lo estoy echando de menos. Me ha encantado. Tiene la justa medida en todo. Habla de paisajes, de sentimientos y de historia con una narrativa muy sencilla y clara, con toques sarc?sticos y muy divertidos. <strong>Pili Berm?dez</strong></p> <p><strong>.</strong></p> <p>? Much?simas gracias por este regalo que nos has hecho, 80 d?as de viaje. Fue un placer seguirte y disfrutar de tu prosa, divirti?ndonos cuando te divert?as, asombr?ndonos cuando te asombrabas e incluso pas?ndolo mal cuando las cosas no pintaban bien. No puedo m?s que felicitarte, tanto por el viaje como por esas perlas de sabidur?a que nos regalas o las fant?sticas recomendaciones de lectura que publicas. <strong>V?ctor Casal Cosque</strong></p> <p><strong>.</strong></p> <p>? Engancha desde el primer momento, literalmente viajas al lado del autor y puedes visualizar por momentos lo que est? viviendo, por la frescura y riqueza de su escritura. De repente te embelesa con la belleza que le rodea y al mismo tiempo te topas con la cruda realidad del momento. Te transporta a trav?s de sus pensamientos, de sus vivencias personales del d?a a d?a y de viajes pasados. <strong>L?a Meiga</strong></p> <p><strong>.</strong></p> <p>? Abres las ganas de conocer nuevos lugares o visitar los ya conocidos. <strong>Manuel ?ngel ?lvarez Cort?s</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Viaje al interior 80 d?as en furgo por la Espa?a olvidada【電子書籍】[ Fran Zabaleta ] 672 円

<p>After logging thousands of miles in planes, jeeps, dugout canoes, pickup trucks, bicycles, and on foot, LeQuire and du Plessis offer insights into how Christians around the world are using tourism to develop their villages while caring for both creation and culture. Based on a multi-year research project, this book showcases innovative projects that Christian villagers and faith-based organizations are engaging to alleviate poverty through business ventures. Through a unique mix of travelogue and theological reflection, this book concludes with a challenge to the status quo of current short-term mission practice and provides thoughtful alternatives.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Wild and Wonderful Tourism, Faith, and Communities【電子書籍】[ Stan L.

<p>Violent crime tragically ruins lives and communities, yet we know how to stop it and help victims. Governments agree on how to get results at the United Nations, but do not act locally.</p> <p><em>Science and Secrets of Ending Violent Crime</em> is the result of a lifetime career working to get violence prevention science applied and frustration with too many preventable tragedies. Irvin Waller explains the proven solutions that tackle the causes of violence, and, ways to persuade politicians to buy-in to invest in the appropriate solutions. Investing in effective violence prevention is more affordable and successful than policymakers think; a modest equivalent of 10 percent of what they spend on police, courts, and corrections will do it and often before the next election! Violence prevention is achievable because voters, contrary to what the media tells us, want much more than reaction, they want prevention.</p> <p>Irvin Waller shines a light on the challenges of violent crime, and shows how to reduce and ultimately stop it by considering how governments spend our money, manage our cities, and legislate our community safety. Waller brings the truth to the reader, increasing not only their knowledge of the problem at hand but introducing practical ways to get more involved in making our world free from violence.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Science and Secrets of Ending Violent Crime【電子書籍】[ Irvin Waller ] 5,301 円
