📮 Pseudoscience by Lydia Kang, Nate Pedersen (.ePUB) From the authors of Quackery, a visual and narrative history of popular ideas, phenomena, and widely held beliefs disproven by science. From the easily disproved to the wildly speculative, to straight-up hucksterism, Pseudoscience is a romp through much more than bad science—it’s a light-hearted look into why we insist on believing in things such as Big Foot, astrology, and the existence of aliens. Did you know, for example, that you can tell a person’s future by touching their butt? Rumpology. It’s a thing, but not really. Or that Stanley Kubrick made a fake moon landing film for the US government? Except he didn’t. Or that spontaneous human combustion is real? It ain’t, but it can be explained scientifically. Pseudoscience is a wild mix of history, pop culture, and good old fashioned science–that not just entertains, but sheds a little light on why we all love to believe in things we know aren't true. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Lydia Kang, Nate Pedersen Size 64MB Category Non-Fiction > History File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/Aq09pHrhBaw2 https://devuploads.com/q9u3t87mf6kf

📮 Lectures 1949–1968, Volume 2 by Theodor W. Adorno (.PDF) When Theodor W. Adorno returned to Germany from his exile in the United States, he was appointed as a lecturer and researcher at the University of Frankfurt and he immediately made a name for himself as a leading public intellectual. Adorno’s widespread influence on the postwar debates was due in part to the public lectures he gave outside of the university in which he analysed and commented on social, cultural and political developments of the time. This second volume brings together Adorno’s lectures given between 1949 and 1968 on social and political themes. With an engaging and improvisational style, Adorno spoke with infectious vigour about architecture and city planning, the relationship between the individual and society, the authoritarian personality and far-right extremism, political education and the current state of sociology, among other subjects. After Auschwitz, it was incumbent on Germany to undertake intensive memory work and to confront the reality of its own moral destruction, while rebuilding its political and economic systems. To rebuild was taken to mean rediscovery and looking outward, but Adorno also nurtured a vision of tradition which – far from being unthinkingly conservative – would attest to society’s honestly-appraised relationship to the past while it underwent the process of modernization. The volume illustrates Adorno’s deep commitment to holding society to standards commensurate with the aspirations of a modern world emerging from the horrors of war. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Theodor W.

📮 Industrial Vision Systems with Pi by K. Mohaideen Abdul Kadhar (.PDF)+ Today’s industries are faced with a growing demand for vision systems due to their non-invasive characteristics in inspecting product quality. These systems identify surface defects and faults, and verify components’ orientation and their measurements, etc. This book explores the vision techniques needed to design and develop your own industrial vision system with the help of Raspberry Pi. You’ll start by reviewing basic concepts and applications of machine vision systems, followed by the preliminaries of Python, OpenCV, required libraries, and installing OpenCV for Python on Raspberry Pi. These are used when implementing image processing for the system applications. You’ll then look at interfacing techniques and some of the challenges industrial vision systems encounter, such as lighting and camera angles. Algorithms and image processing techniques are also discussed, along with Machine Learning and Deep Learning techniques. Later chapters explain the use of GUI apps and real-time applications of Industrial vision systems. Each chapter concludes with examples and demo implementations to facilitate your knowledge of the concepts. By the end of the book, you’ll be able to build and deploy computer vision applications with Python, OpenCV, and Raspberry Pi. ♻️ Book's Info: Author K.

📮 Disposable: America's Contempt for Underclass by Sarah Jones (.ePUB) In a compelling blend of personal narrative and in-depth reporting, New York magazine senior writer Sarah Jones exposes the harsh reality of America’s racial and income inequality and the devastating impact of the pandemic on our nation’s most vulnerable people. In the tradition of Matthew Desmond’s Evicted and Andrea Elliot’s Invisible Child, Disposable is a poignant exploration of America’s underclass, left vulnerable by systemic racism and capitalism. Here, Sarah Jones delves into the lives of the essential workers, seniors, and people with disabilities who were disproportionately affected by COVID-19—not due to their age or profession, but because of the systemic inequality and poverty that left them exposed. The pandemic served as a stark revelation of the true state of America, a country where the dream of prosperity is a distant mirage for millions. Jones argues that the pandemic didn’t create these dynamics, but rather revealed the existing social mobility issues and wealth gap that have long plagued the nation. Behind the staggering death toll are stories of lives lost, injustices suffered, and institutions that failed to protect their people. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Sarah Jones Size 2MB Category Non-Fiction > Educational File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/dm2cEDEcv8OJ https://devuploads.com/5o17752x88or

📮 Ecology for the 99% by Frédéric Legault (.ePUB) If everyone–from Emmanuel Macron to Jeff Bezos, and even Coca Cola–is green, why is the environmental crisis growing at an alarmingly rapid rate? The world is already experiencing the impact of climate crisis, but we are not equally responsible for its violent effects. Some of those who claim to be helping the planet are actually making things worse. To avoid being duped by false allies and to create an ecology for the 99%, we must discuss a radical topic: the exit from capitalism. Ecology for the 99% provides inspiration for building grassroots environmental movements through a lively discussion of the most persistent capitalist myths. It presents compelling evidence for why carbon market policies will fail, why a capitalist economy cannot be based on renewable energy sources, and why we should be protesting against overproduction, not overconsumption. Ecology for the 99% is an antidote to apathy and a bulwark against false leads. Time is running out, we can't afford to take any wrong turns. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Frédéric Legault Size 3MB Category Non-Fiction > Educational File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/mybfdVDOZQ6v https://devuploads.com/9e1435nszl8e

📮 The Politics of Nostalgia by Simon Winlow (.ePUB) For ordinary people today, the future seems dark and forbidding. In generations gone by, parents looked forward with optimism, confident their children would do better. Not anymore. Standards of living continue to fall. Our institutions seem redundant, our cities dilapidated and dysfunctional. Electoral systems seem incapable of driving positive change. What is there to be optimistic about? A multiplicity of escalating pressures and a growing fear of the future encourage people to look to the past to identify something positive, and the bittersweet sting of nostalgia now plays a key role in working-class politics and community life. But how should we understand our increasingly common retreat into nostalgia? In this sweeping ethnography, Simon Winlow explores our common desire to take refuge in the past, and what it means for our political future. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Simon Winlow Size 400KB Category Non-Fiction > Educational File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/CBJ42PLuXivt https://devuploads.com/kw9zq8jfhs26

📮 Decolonizing Maasai History by Meitamei Olol Dapash (.PDF) In this book Maasai leader and activist Meitamei Dapash teams with historian Mary Poole to offer a new version of Maasai history based on Maasai memory and concerns. Through their rich and detailed narrative, we learn not only about the history of the Maasai as they understand it, but also about the relations between politics and Western history; about the untold history of Kenya both pre- and post-nationhood; about why the creation of nation-states is not synonymous with liberation; and about how and why Indigenous approaches to land obstruct global processes of resource extraction. All of this finds wider resonances that upend received narratives of post-“independence” Africa and offer new opportunities for the emancipation of Indigenous communities from neo-colonial regimes the world over. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Meitamei Olol Dapash Size 5MB Category Non-Fiction > History File Type PDF 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/rzs4LfcOXNod https://devuploads.com/3lp1m9xfw6rb

📮 Warriors' Wives by Emma Bridges (.PDF) Epic poetry and tragic drama provide us with some of the richest ancient Greek depictions of women who are married to soldiers. In tales of the Trojan War, as told by Homer, Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, we encounter these mythical warriors' wives: Penelope, isolated but resourceful as she awaits the return of Odysseus after his lengthy absence; the war widow Andromache, enslaved and displaced from her homeland after the fall of Troy; the unfaithful and murderous Clytemnestra; and Tecmessa, a war captive who witnesses her partner's breakdown and suicide in the aftermath of battle. Warriors' Wives compares the experiences of these mythical characters with those of contemporary military spouses. Emma Bridges traces aspects of the lives of warriors' wives–mythical and real, ancient and modern–from the moment of farewell, through periods of separation and reunion, to the often traumatic aftermath of war, to consider the emotional, psychological, and social impacts of life as a military spouse. By unearthing a wealth of contemporary evidence for the lives of the often silenced and unacknowledged partners of those who serve in the military, and by examining this alongside the ancient stories of warriors' wives, Warriors' Wives sheds fresh light on the experience of being married to the military. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Emma Bridges Size 1.4MB Category Non-Fiction > History File Type PDF 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/vdt7fycXw8u1 https://devuploads.com/kwywz8d5ul5f

Includes twenty-five black-and-white illustrations by Palestinian artists. The Arabic word sumūd is often loosely translated as “steadfastness” or “standing fast.” It is, above all, a Palestinian cultural value of everyday perseverance in the face of Israeli occupation. Sumūd is both a personal and collective commitment; people determine their own lives, despite the environment of constant oppressions imposed upon them. This anthology spans the 20th and 21st centuries of Palestinian cultural history, and highlights writing from 2021–2024. The collection of writing and art features work from forty-six contributors including: Dispatches from Hossam Madhoun, co-founder of Gaza's Theatre for Everybody, as he survives the post-October 2023 war on Gaza; Novelist Ahmed Masoud with “Application 39,” a sci-fi short story about a Dystopian bid for the Olympics; Sara Roy and Ivar Ekeland with “The New Politics of Exclusion: Gaza as Prologue,” an analysis of Israel’s divide and conquer policies of fragmentation; Historian Ilan Pappé with a review of Tahrir Hamdi’s book, Imagining Palestine, in which heunpacks the relationship between culture and resistance; Essayist Lina Mounzer with “Palestine and the Unspeakable,” an offering on the language used to dehumanize Palestinians; And poetry by the next generation of poets who have inherited the mantle of the late Mahmoud Darwish (1941–2008). The essays, stories, poetry, art and personal narrative collected in Sumūd: A New Palestinian Reader is a rich riposte to those who would denigrate Palestinians’ aspirations for a homeland. It also serves as a timely reminder of culture’s power and importance during occupation and war. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Malu Halasa Size 34.7MB Category Non-Fiction > Educational File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/ENtqDsYGbfqf https://devuploads.com/36v1fh1v98g3

📮 Just Beyond the Light by D. Randall Blythe (.ePUB) From the author of Dark Days and lead singer of long-running extreme metal band, Lamb of God, a riveting and revelatory memoir about self-development and maintaining proper perspective through difficult times In his gripping, bestselling debut memoir Dark Days, Lamb of God vocalist D. Randall (Randy) Blythe unflinchingly wrote about some of the most harrowing episodes of his past. Now, in his highly anticipated follow-up Just Beyond the Light, Blythe shares how he works daily to maintain positivity in a world that feels like it is spinning out of control. In his own words, Just Beyond the Light is a "tight, concise roadmap of how I have attempted to maintain what I believe to be a proper perspective in life, even during difficult times." Written with a scathing balance of hard-edged reality offset by a knowing humor and a razor-sharp wit, voiced in in his inimitable, conversational, everyman-philosopher style, Blythe clearly breaks down his approach to life, which is a personal and idiosyncratic mix of sobriety, art, and surfing. He writes movingly of his childhood in the South, of fallen friends, of what he’s learned touring the world as the vocalist of a successful heavy metal band, and of the very real ways he is doing what he can to leave the world a better place. Above all, he offers readers hope that balance, real balance, is possible, even (or especially) when things seem hopeless. Compelling, compassionate, and refreshingly honest, Just Beyond the Light ultimately reminds readers that “as long as we keep our feet (and minds) planted firmly on the ground that is reality, the sky isn’t falling— it never has been, and it never will.” ♻️ Book's Info: Author D.

📮 Love and Need by Adam Plunkett (.ePUB) Braiding together biography and criticism, Adam Plunkett challenges our understanding of Robert Frost’s life and poetic legacy in a pathbreaking new work. By the middle of the twentieth century, Robert Frost was the best-loved poet in America. He was our nation’s bard, simple and sincere, accompanying us on wooded roads and articulating our hopes and fears. After Frost’s death, these cliches gave way to equally broad (though opposed) portraits sketched by his biographers, chief among them Lawrance Thompson. When the critic Helen Vendler reviewed Thompson’s biography, she asked whether anyone could avoid the conclusion that Frost was a “monster.” In Love and Need: The Life of Robert Frost’s Poetry, Adam Plunkett blends biography and criticism to find the truth of Frost’s life―one that lies between the two poles of perception. Plunkett reveals a new Frost through a careful look at the poems and people he knew best, showing how the stories of his most important relationships, heretofore partly told, mirror dominant themes of Frost’s enduring poetry: withholding and disclosure, privacy and intimacy. Not least of these relationships is the fraught, intense friendship between Frost and Thompson, the major biographer whose record of Frost Plunkett seeks to set straight. Moving through Frost’s most important work and closest relationships with the attention to detail necessary to see familiar things anew, Plunkett offers an original interpretation of Frost’s poetry, tracing Frost’s distinctive achievement to an engagement with poetic tradition far deeper and more extensive than he ever let on. Frost invited his readers into a conversation like the one he sustained with his literary forebears, intimate and profound, yet Frost kept his private self at a remove. Here, Plunkett brings the two together―the poet and the poetry―and draws us back into conversation with America’s poet. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Adam Plunkett Size 1.7MB Category Non-Fiction > Biographies & Memoirs File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/0J672y81vToJ https://devuploads.com/kdve3ni0dfi2

Balancing critical analysis with optimistic vision, the book’s diverse contributors champion press freedom and critical media literacy to hold the powerful accountable and promote a more just and inclusive society. State of the Free Press 2025 is a joint production of The Censored Press and Seven Stories Press. ♻️ Book's Info: Author Mickey Huff Size 2.9MB Category Non-Fiction > Educational File Type ePUB 📥 Download Links: https://uploda.sh/W1JzuFql4PMB https://devuploads.com/em43udfbvepw
