Book : Murder In Revelation (the Doyle & Acton Mystery...
-Titulo Original : Murder In Revelation (the Doyle & Acton Mystery Series)-Fabricante : Bowker-Descripcion Original: Detective Sergeant Kathleen Doyle was investigating a tip she’d received about doctors who were being assaulted at a London free clinic, but-strangely enough-none of the volunteers was willing to give her a statement. Instead, her only witness offered a fanciful tale about supernatural evildoers-which was nonsense, of course; it was clearly an attempt to shift the blame to the appropriate cultural bogeyman. Although it did seem as though there were a lot of strange things happening, and all of them at once. A shame, that she had to interrupt the investigation to attend a servant’s funeral at Trestles, but Acton felt they were obligated to go. If only she didn’t feel as though her husband was a little too eager to attend this particular funeral. . . ... -

-Titulo Original : How To Fake An Irish Wake A Cozy Mystery Set In Ireland (a Mags And Biddy Genealogy Mystery)-Fabricante : Bowker-Descripcion Original: It’s been a rough year for 26-year-old Mags Murray. First she learns that her dad isn’t her biological father, a secret her mother took to her grave three years earlier. Then her beloved Irish grandmother passes away at Christmas while Mags is visiting her from the States. Now Mags must host her grandmother’s wake and sell her cottage. A cottage filled with cherished memories. A cottage Mags inherited but her odd jobs won’t enable her to keep. Shortly after the funeral, a young man, Finn O’Brien, arrives at the cottage with an old photograph. Finn believes the boys in the photo are a clue to his father’s identity. Mags can sympathize with him, and because she often helped her genealogist grandmother uncover skeletons in people’s closets, including herself, she agrees to assist Finn. But searching for Finn’s father stirs up trouble. Finn is in a near-fatal car crash that wasn’t an accident. So Mags and her childhood friend Biddy McCarthy investigate why someone wants to prevent Finn from finding his father. Questioning the quirky locals proves a wee bit difficult as several of the suspects were victims of Mags and Biddy’s childhood shenanigans. It might take a fake Irish wake to reveal Finn’s father and the would-be murderer. But what if the two turn out to be the same person... -

Rookie detective Kathleen Doyle has been assigned to be Chief Inspector Acton’s support officer on the cases, but thus far, they’ve little to work with; the killer appears to be a professional, but the gruesome crime scenes are not the work of a professional killer.

Libro : Deshumanizando Al Varon Pasado, Presente Y Futuro...
-Titulo Original : Deshumanizando Al Varon Pasado, Presente Y Futuro Del Sexo Masculino -Fabricante : Bowker-Descripcion Original: Privilegiado, violento, opresor… cuando se juzga la figura masculina desde una perspectiva de genero el veredicto es inequivoco: los hombres dominan la politica, los negocios, las instituciones religiosas, numerosos ambitos cientificos y culturales, ademas de estar sobrerrepresentados como victimarios en las estadisticas de crimen violento y sexual. Sin embargo los varones tambien protagonizan la mayor parte de los suicidios, muertes laborales y victimas de homicidio. Encabezan el fracaso escolar, son mayoria entre los sin techo y constituyen el grueso de las victimas civiles y militares en conflictos armados. Desde una perspectiva de genero, la discriminacion legal masculina tambien permanece invisible en areas como el servicio militar obligatorio, la trata de personas, el castigo corporal, la integridad genital, el fraude paternal, las politicas migratorias o la justicia, entre otras. Ante la dificil reconciliacion de la narrativa de genero dominante frente a la parte mas vulnerable de la experiencia masculina, se han propuesto explicaciones poco convincentes: que dichos problemas obedecen a otras categorias como clase o raza, que constituye un efecto secundario a su posicion de poder y privilegio, o que supone el resultado de la cultura machista y patriarcal. Discursos dirigidos a culpabilizar a la victima y que priorizan la deconstruccion de la masculinidad sobre soluciones practicas y cambios legales. Esta obra planteara un modelo alternativo que resuelva de forma satisfactoria la complejidad de la experiencia masculina, a fin de proponer soluciones mas adecuadas. En la primera parte se analiza el pasado para determinar que hay de mito y realidad en el papel historico atribuido al hombre como explotador de la mujer. La segunda parte examina el presente estado del varon y los desafios a los que se enfrenta, asi como la invisibilidad mediatica y politica que los rodea. Finalmente la tercera parte explora vias potenciales para la concienciacion y resolucion de sus problemas, incluyendo propuestas legales. Deshumanizando varon presenta, en definitiva, una nueva forma de entender al sexo masculino que rompe con la narrativa asimetrica que ha dominado el discurso academico, politico y mediatico en las ultimas decadas sin oposicion. Deshumanizando al varon es un gran libro, un libro tranquilo con datos y argumentos, que muestra que los hombres sufren tambien discriminaciones y desventajas ‘por el hecho de ser hombres’. Un libro que contribuye a que conozcamos mejor la realidad y a que podamos construir un mundo mejor para todos”. Pablo Malo (Psiquiatra, miembro de la Txori-Herri Medical Associarion). “…No hemos tenido, hasta ahora, una replica tan elocuente, historicamente matizada y con un rango tematico tan amplio como encontramos en La deshumanizacion del varon. La revision de Jimenez del concepto ‘patriarcado’ es profunda y equilibrada, y su relevancia para los debates contemporaneos y politicas sociales es considerable.” Adam Jones (Profesor Asociado de Ciencias Politicas en la Universidad de British Columbia, Canada)... -

Book : Chasing A Flawed Sun - McGhee, Daniel
-Titulo Original : Chasing A Flawed Sun-Fabricante : Bowker-Descripcion Original: Riveting I Couldnt put it down! Not just another addiction memoir Must read! The phrase “Heroin saved my life” could be considered both controversial and even offensive to some. However in “Chasing a flawed sun” the author shows us how after breaking him down and almost taking his life several times, the battle with the drug did just that. This is a true story. A transparent story of the life of a young man in America, who, like many of our lost youth, found his way into the drug culture. This story is an autopsy into the mind, heart and soul of an addict. It begins at childhood and takes us through the thoughts, turmoil and inner conflicts of a person lost in the undercurrent of addiction, and ends in a climax of self discovery, and realization.It is a gripping tale of a suburban youth and his journey through the streets of Baltimore, institutions, prisons, addiction, and worst of all, his own mind. What makes it so unique is the vulnerability and transparency with which it is told. It is the goal of this story to not only to tell a vivid tale but to also share hope and experience with those who are actively struggling with their own demons, and to shed some light to those who have lost or are currently dealing with a loved one who is struggling with addiction, alcoholism and/or a lost sense of “self”.Daniel McGhee lives and owns several businesses just outside of Baltimore, Md. He also owns a non-profit and works with addicts, children and homeless in his area. In his eighteen years in recovery he’s learned to enjoy writing, fitness, and traveling the world. He enjoys going to other countries either for relief work, exploration or just chasing the sun that never ceases.Chasing a Flawed Sun is in turns beautiful and brutal. The book is profoundly insightful for someone who has felt the sting of addiction. It is a difficult subject to write about, but McGhee has done a great service in writing this book. Not only has Daniel McGhee survived hell and lived to tell the tale, but his words are an inspiration and can act as a guide for people still traversing that dark path, in a memoir that is at once merciless and uplifting. ~Self-Publishing Review, ... -

Im a doctor!Over fifty years ago, I was a Harvard-trained pediatrician drafted as a Navy Flight Surgeon, thrust into the Vietnam War and onto the front lines, stationed in Dong Ha, leading up to the massive Tet Offensive. It was early 1967 when I arrived. I was scared sh*tless. I had a reason to be.As U.S. Marines, our motto is “Never Leave a Man Behind.” That means Medevac helicopter crews were rushed into live combat under the protection of Huey gunships to rescue wounded comrades. During these thunderous extractions, often in a state of sheer terror, I frantically tried to save as many young Marines as I could, practicing crude but life-sustaining procedures in the belly of a chopper, under intense fire, as we fought for our own lives.My first enemy kill came during a night incursion onto our base. I was attacked in my bunker by a teenaged Viet Cong fighter. I stabbed him mortally with a single thrust of my blade. I felt his heart stop beating. In Vietnam, I knew I would either die or go insane. When my close friends began getting killed in action, including a pilot buddy who burned to death when his chopper crashed, I snapped mentally.As I sank deeper into my psychosis, my desire to kill grew stronger. While in-country, I volunteered for the CIA’s Operation Phoenix, a counter-insurgency campaign, designed to conduct psychological warfare on local leaders who were enemy sympathizers. I was assigned to assassination teams, strictly targeting civilians. Such missions were extremely risky, but I had a death wish. Unfulfilled, fortunately.Miraculously, I did survive to pursue a career in medical research and law, love my wife and walk my dogs. For my actions, I was awarded a Silver Star, a Bronze Star with Valor, a Combat Action Ribbon and an Air Medal with 3 Gold Stars. However, I’m not bursting with pride. I’m still grieving. It’s hard to cope with the guilt of surviving and of what I was directed to do. War is not glorious, like the movies or video games.No one wins. Except those few who greatly profit from it...
