Paperback. Condición: Very Good. From the Silk Roads to the Berlin Wall, discover the globe-turning history of human migration. We are a species in motion--from the first steps of Homo sapiens across Africa to America's melting pot. And when we move--in search of better things, or against our will--our beliefs and skills clash and combine, reshaping society time and again. In this visionary Shortest History of Migration, Ian Goldin uncovers key moments of cultural exchange while carefully examining empire, slavery, and war. Throughout, we meet famous explorers (Zheng He), exiles (Pablo Neruda), and everyday people in extraordinary circumstances: a Jewish man saved by the Kindertransport, a Japanese gardener who blossomed in Mexico City. Today, freedom of movement is being curtailed, even as climate change and conflict mobilize people everywhere around the world. Goldin reminds us that passports at every border are a modern invention (he traces the birth of big brother to World War I), revealing the folly of trying to halt migration--and proposing commonsense policy instead. A gripping chronicle of want and wanderlust, this is a moving portrait of humanity--in every sense of the word.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - A stalker lets us glimpse into the world of his compulsions. A woman, confronting her convicted rapist, becomes obsessed with finding a way to kill him. A neo-nazi begins to see beyond the hate and violence on which he has based his life. How do people wind up in prison Once there, can they change What's the aftermath of a violent assault on victims and their families What kind of a toll do jails and prisons take on those who work there These are a few of the questions confronted by the characters in R.C. Goodwin's collection of stories, The Stephen Hawking Death Row Fan Club. The questions don't make for easy answers, and the characters don't fall into clear-cut categories. Taken together, the stories illuminate some of society's darkest corners. Goodwin's experience practicing psychiatry in correctional settings for over twenty years adds depth and authenticity to them. His stories offer unexpected turns and endings, as well as surprising doses of gallows humor. Award-winning author R.C. Goodwin graduated from Yale with a degree in history, attended medical school in Dublin, and completed an internship and psychiatric residency in Connecticut. He has worked in private practice, jails and prisons, a facility for the criminally insane, and the counseling center at a large university. To date he has had seven short stories publishes; three have won literary competitions. The Stephen Hawking Death Row Fan Club is his first book of fiction.…
