Colonial Constitutionalism

The Tyranny of United States' Offshore Territorial Policy and Relations

By: E. Robert Statham

Colonial Constitutionalism exposes one of the great failures of American democracy. It posits that the creation of a U.S. 'empire' over the last century violated the basis of American constitutionalism through its failure to fully admit annexed offshore territories into the Union. The book's focused case studies analyze each of America's quasi-colonies, revealing how the perpetuation of a this 'imperialist' strategy has rendered the inhabitants second class citizens. E. Robert Statham, Jr.'s work emphasizes the pressing need--in the face of increasingly strident calls for sovereign independence from America's offshore territories--for a modern American republic, fundamentally incompatible with imperialism and colonialism, to grant full U.S. statehood to its overseas possessions.

The Enlightened Joseph Priestley

A Study of His Life and Work from 1773 to 1804

By: Robert E. Schofield

In The Enlightened Joseph Priestley Robert Schofield completes his two-volume biography of one of the great figures of the English Enlightenment. The first volume, published in 1997, covered the first forty years of Joseph Priestley’s life in England. In this second volume, Schofield surveys the mature years of Priestley, including the achievements that were to make him famous—the discovery of oxygen, the defenses of Unitarianism, and the political liberalism that characterized his later life. He also recounts Priestley’s flight to Pennsylvania in 1794 and the final years of his life spent along the Susquehanna in Northumberland. Together, the two volumes will stand as the standard biography of Priestley for years to come. Joseph Priestley (1733–1804), a contemporary and friend of Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, exceeded even these polymaths in the breadth of his curiosity and learning. Yet Priestley is often portrayed in negative terms, as a restless intellect, incapable of confining himself to any single task, without force or originality, and marked by hasty and superficial thought. In The Enlightened Joseph Priestley, he emerges as a man who was more than a lucky empiricist in science, more than a naive political liberal, more than an exhaustive compiler of superficial evidence in militant support of Unitarianism. In fact, he was learned in an extraordinary variety of subjects, from grammar, education, aesthetics, metaphysics, politics, and theology to natural philosophy. Priestley was, in fact, a man of the Enlightenment.

Stochastic Portfolio Theory

By: E. Robert Fernholz

Stochastic portfolio theory is a mathematical methodology for constructing stock portfolios and for analyzing the effects induced on the behavior of these portfolios by changes in the distribution of capital in the market. Stochastic portfolio theory has both theoretical and practical applications: as a theoretical tool it can be used to construct examples of theoretical portfolios with specified characteristics and to determine the distributional component of portfolio return. This book is an introduction to stochastic portfolio theory for investment professionals and for students of mathematical finance. Each chapter includes a number of problems of varying levels of difficulty and a brief summary of the principal results of the chapter, without proofs.

Worse Than Heroin

By: E. Robert Mercer

The most pervasive drug problem in the world is not heroin, not crack, not crystal meth, not pot, not any of the illicit drugs. Combined with the brutal nature of its addiction and the time and difficulty involved in withdrawing, a legal classification of drugs is by far the worst. Given their legal status and widespread use, benzodiazepines are secretly taking away the lives of Americans and people in other western cultures as we increasingly turn to pills to heal us. Commonly known as tranquillizers, the effects of these highly addictive prescription drugs are ghastly. Withdrawing from them can be extraordinarily difficult, far beyond description. This is the true story of one man's journey through dozens of relentless, horrific withdrawal symptoms to renewed health. These drugs are worse than heroin.

GenderSell

How to Sell to the Opposite Sex

By: Lee E. Robert,Judith C. Tingley

GenderSell is the first and only book to offer specific techniques on overcoming the single greatest barrier to effective sales -- selling to the opposite sex. Despite a decade of important research on how differences between the sexes affect personal and workplace relationships, until now virtually every book on selling has ignored these differences. And despite the fact that women make approximately 85 percent of the purchasing decisions on most products and services and now constitute more than 25 percent of today's sales force, nearly all relevant books have been written by men for men in sales about selling to men. Tom Peters, Ken Blanchard, and other management experts have proposed that companies must learn how to market, sell, and advertise differently to men and women in order to stay competitive. Now at long last, psychologist and workplace communication expert Judith Tingley and veteran sales professional Lee E. Robert bring you this essential guide. Based on research, including the authors' Sales Preference Survey, conducted with more than 600 participants, Tingley and Robert provide detailed examples, specific techniques, and provocative case studies that will help sales professionals increase their success, their revenues, and their profits. The authors answer many important questions: When should you focus more on the interpersonal process and when on the product? What quality do customers say they like most about men in sales? What characteristic do they think is strongest in female sales professionals? Is the timing of the close different with male and female clients? The industry buzz has begun: In response to articles on the Gendersell topic that have appeared in trade publications and to training seminars offered by the authors, executives from a wide range of industries -- high tech to automobile dealerships, insurance companies to home builders and health care delivery services -- have been clamoring for GenderSell to make it an integral part of their worldwide sales strategies.

The Strangest Way

Walking the Christian Path

By: Robert E. Barron

Is Christianity a bland, domesticated religion, unthreatening and easy to grasp? Or is it the most exotic, unexpected, and uncanny of religious paths? For the mystics and saints -- and for Robert Barron who discovered Christianity through them -- it is surely the strangest way. "At its very center, " writes Barron, "is a God who comes after us with a reckless abandon, breaking open his own heart in love in order to include us in the rhythm of his own life." What could be more compelling?

SSH, The Secure Shell

The Definitive Guide

By: Daniel J. Barrett,Richard E. Silverman,Robert G. Byrnes

Are you serious about network security? Then check out SSH, the Secure Shell, which provides key-based authentication and transparent encryption for your network connections. It's reliable, robust, and reasonably easy to use, and both free and commercial implementations are widely available for most operating systems. While it doesn't solve every privacy and security problem, SSH eliminates several of them very effectively. Everything you want to know about SSH is in our second edition of SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide. This updated book thoroughly covers the latest SSH-2 protocol for system administrators and end users interested in using this increasingly popular TCP/IP-based solution. How does it work? Whenever data is sent to the network, SSH automatically encrypts it. When data reaches its intended recipient, SSH decrypts it. The result is "transparent" encryption-users can work normally, unaware that their communications are already encrypted. SSH supports secure file transfer between computers, secure remote logins, and a unique "tunneling" capability that adds encryption to otherwise insecure network applications. With SSH, users can freely navigate the Internet, and system administrators can secure their networks or perform remote administration. Written for a wide, technical audience, SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide covers several implementations of SSH for different operating systems and computing environments. Whether you're an individual running Linux machines at home, a corporate network administrator with thousands of users, or a PC/Mac owner who just wants a secure way to telnet or transfer files between machines, our indispensable guide has you covered. It starts with simple installation and use of SSH, and works its way to in-depth case studies on large, sensitive computer networks. No matter where or how you're shipping information, SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide will show you how to do it securely.

Drugs During Pregnancy and Lactation

Handbook of prescription drugs and comparative risk assessment

By: H. Garbis,P. McElhatton,M. Reuvers,E. Robert,M. Rost van Tonningen,A. Scialli,P. Peters,Christof Schaefer

The care of pregnant women presents one of the paradoxes of modern medicine. Women usually require little medical intervention during an (uneventful) pregnancy. Conversely, those at high risk of damage to their own health or that of their unborn require the help of appropriate medicinal technology, including drugs. Accordingly, there are two classes of pregnant women, the larger group requires support but not much intervention, while the other needs the full range of diagnostic and therapeutic measures applied in any other branch of medicine. This book presents the current state of knowledge about drugs in pregnancy. In each chapter information is presented separately for two different aspects of the problem seeking a drug appropriate for prescription during pregnancy, and assessing the risk of a drug when exposure has already taken place. Practising clinicians who prescribe medicinal products to women who are, or who may become, pregnant, will find this volume an invaluable reference.
