Fragmenty monografii: Przykład Rwandy stanowi bezprecedensowy przypadek „niebezpiecznego” posługiwania się mediami do osiągania nie tylko celów politycznych, ale również ludobójczych. Działalność tzw. hate mediów zaprzecza istnieniu jakichkolwiek zasad etycznych i stanowi niechlubny przykład niewłaściwego wykorzystywania mediów, do spełniania partykularnych celów ekstremistów Hutu. Do propagandowych metod stosowanych przez tzw. hate media należała m.in. „retoryka praw natury” przez często stosowane określenia np.: karaluchy (Tutsi) – motyle (Hutu), tworzenie pośredniego przekazu wezwań do ludobójstwa, przy użyciu różnic antropologicznych np.: „trzeba ...

'IT WASN'T BY ELIMINATING THE IMPOSSIBLE THAT YOU GOT AT THE TRUTH, HOWEVER IMPROBABLE; IT WAS BY THE MUCH HARDER PROCESS OF ELIMINATING THE POSSIBILITIES.' Commander Sam Vimes of the City Watch is used to trouble. There's always trouble in Ankh-Morpork. But this is new: people are being brutally murdered and there's no evidence of anything alive having been at the crime scene. At the same time, the most powerful man in the city has been poisoned and is clinging on to life by a thread. It's a conundrum of a case. With the help of Captain Carrot, the only watchman who knows the law inside-out; Corporal Cheery Littlebottom, an unconventional dwarf with an eye for forensics; and Constable Angua, a werewolf with an excellent sense of smell, Vimes tries to solve the mystery. But time is of the essence, for something extremely dangerous is loose in the city, its red eyes glowing in the night ... 'Fantastical, inventive . . . laughter waiting to be uncovered on each page' Observer Feet Of Clay is the third book in the City Watch series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.

In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...

A hundred years old and counting, he is one of Japan's many 'old-elderly'; men and women who remember a time before the air and the sea were poisoned, before terrible catastrophe promted Japan to shut itself off from the rest of the world.
