Nuussuarmiut

This book describes life in a small hunting community in Northwest Greenland. It is based on fieldwork carried out by the author from 1966 to 1968 and documents in detail the traditional material culture, ways of hunting and fishing, daily life, and festive occasions of an Inuit society not yet influenced by European culture. The historical background of the settlement from the establishment in 1923 is outlined. Daily life in the settlement itself and out on the hunting grounds is followed through a whole year and all processes are documented in the many original photographs. The book demonstrates a surprising stability in the life of the hunting families, not due to conservatism but because experience has shown them that this way of living is the most suited to the given conditions. At the time of the field study, new tools and a number of other items had been introduced. In a large number of cases, they are used in conjunction with more traditional tools.

Voters Under Pressure

"In many established democracies, vote choices are growing more volatile over time. This book assesses how changes in voters' decision making process have contributed to this change. The first part of the book examines the evidence for the claim that the increase in volatility results from a shift in weight from long-term to more short-term determinants of the vote choice. This overview and the analyses that are presented highlight the limitations of existing theories of electoral change and call for novel explanations for voter volatility"--

Togo

Albert Telldro is a diplomat, ambassador, comfortable, and educated man. He demands the respect he deserves. He represents his European country in a small African country, then when the rebels approach to get the power he stays there alone representing the countries of the European Union. He is sent to a hostage-rescuing action but he gets captured too. Though they expect ransome for him too, treat him badly: they torture him, make him suffer, almost execute him. They kill his one and only hostage companion. The man of respect up until then gets down to his capturers’ level within days and take over their ways so he manages to escape. When he thinks he is safe, they capture him again and at that time he himself shed blood. We can see from the novel how an educated man becomes foully within terrible circumstances until he loses his human nature and starts to behave as an animal hoping to survive. We’ll become witnesses how a man like that survives horrible times. He does everything to get to the small country of his dreams Togo, because he can only become human again there.

A History of Surgical Paediatrics

This book provides an authoritative overview of the global development of surgical paediatrics. Biographical accounts of key people who developed this relatively new specialty, many of whom are now household names, are presented. The compendium also acknowledges the enormous contribution of imaging (ultrasound/MRI and PET scans), minimal invasive surgery, and fetal surgery, as well as the role of related journals and associations, in the progress of surgical paediatrics.
