Life as a Hunt

Thresholds of Identities and Illusions on an African Landscape

By: Stuart A. Marks

The "extensive wilderness" of Zambia's central Luangwa Valley is the homeland of the Valley Bisa whose cultural practices have enriched this environment for centuries. Beginning with the intrusions of warlords and later British colonials, successive generations have experienced the callousness and challenges of colonialism. Their homeland, a slender corridor surrounded by three national parks and an escarpment, is a microcosm of the political, economic and cultural battlefields surrounding most African protected areas today. The story of the Valley Bisa diverges from the myths that conservationists, administrators, and philanthropists, tell about Africa's environmental and wildlife crises.

Intellectual Property Law of Canada - Second Edition

By: Stuart C. McCormack

This treatise on Canadian intellectual property law, written by members of the I.P. practice group of Stikeman, Elliott, is a comprehensive source for answering many of the I.P. questions that arise for both lawyers and corporate counsel. With technologies and new ideas driving today’s economy as never before, intellectual property is a key factor in business success. While intellectual property is especially vital for knowledge-based industries, its importance cuts across sectors as well as national boundaries. To meet this challenge, Stikeman, Elliott takes a multi-disciplinary approach to the practice. Their team comprises dynamic and highly creative professionals, including intellectual property, corporate and international trade lawyers, who bring a wide range of training and experience to every transaction. This expertise has been critical to businesses throughout Canada and around the world who want to preserve, protect and exploit their intellectual property to the fullest while reducing the risks of jeopardizing their intellectual property assets. In addition to this work being an eminently practical reference source, it also provides insightful practice commentaries and detailed analysis of all major intellectual property law subjects. In sum, the Intellectual Property Law of Canada is a publication that anyone with Canadian I.P. interests or questions should not be without.

A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive

By: John Stuart Mill

A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive - John Stuart Mill - It is so much the established practice of writers on logic to commence their treatises by a few general observations (in most cases, it is true, rather meagre) on Terms and their varieties, that it will, perhaps, scarcely be required from me in merely following the common usage, to be as particular in assigning my reasons, as it is usually expected that those should be who deviate from it. The practice, indeed, is recommended by considerations far too obvious to require a formal justification. Logic is a portion of the Art of Thinking: Language is evidently, and by the admission of all philosophers, one of the principal instruments or helps of thought; and any imperfection in the instrument, or in the mode of employing it, is confessedly liable, still more than in almost any other art, to confuse and impede the process, and destroy all ground of confidence in the result. For a mind not previously versed in the meaning and right use of the various kinds of words, to attempt the study of methods of philosophizing, would be as if some one should attempt to become an astronomical observer, having never learned to adjust the focal distance of his optical instruments so as to see distinctly.

Inventing the New American House

Howard Van Doren Shaw, Architect

By: Stuart Cohen

Howard Van Doren Shaw designed stately country houses in and around Chicago—from affluent Lake Forest, Illinois, and Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, to Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio, and Indiana—from 1894 to 1926, a period in American architecture that spanned the Gilded Age, the adoption of Beaux-Arts classicism as the ideal for civic architecture, the invention of the skyscraper, and the beginning of modernism. Born in 1869, he worked for the leading industrialists of that period, including Reuben H. Donnelley of printing fame, newspaper giant Joseph Medill Patterson, Edward Forster Swift, the meatpacking king, and Edward L. Ryerson of Ryerson Steel. A contemporary of Frank Lloyd Wright, Shaw explored many of the same ideas as the Prairie School Architects within the forms of traditional architecture. Though he was recognized as one of the leading country house architects of the early twentieth century, his name was largely forgotten after his death. Like many traditional architects practicing today, Shaw was skilled at adapting historic precedents to suit contemporary living, in particular the easy flow of interior space that became a design hallmark of the period for traditionalists and modernists alike. For the new and fashionable suburb of Lake Forest, Shaw created Market Square, the town center, which was lauded for its design as both a unique town green and the first American shopping center designed to accommodate automobiles. This timely reappraisal of Howard Van Doren Shaw’s work features many previously unpublished images from the Shaw Archive in the Burnham and Ryerson Library at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Chicago History Museum, rare construction drawings, and new color photography as well as a catalogue of Shaw’s residential work. His legacy includes substantial houses in prosperous communities, many of which are still standing—including Ragdale, once Shaw’s own summer house in Lake Forest, now home to the prestigious artists’ community; the Becker Estate on Chicago’s North Shore; and The Hermann House overlooking Lake Michigan.

A System Of Logic Ratiocinative And Inductive Vol. I

By: John Stuart Mill

John Stuart Mill, a renowned 19th-century philosopher and political economist, by "A System of Logic-1" as a seminal book. Some stories are violent and strange, while others creep up on you and slowly imbibe you in. This version of "A System of Logic vol-1" is both modern and readable, with a striking new cover and a beautifully typeset manuscript. The story is full of unexpected twists and turns that will keep the reader engaged. The work of this author has been recognized as one of the most influential contributions to logic and philosophy of its time. In "A System of Logic vol-1" Mill dives into the fundamentals of inductive reasoning and the scientific method. He presents a methodical method for learning logic, emphasizing the use of actual evidence and experimentation as the foundation for developing general principles and drawing conclusions. Mill's work aided in the advancement of modern empirical investigation. Mill's theory is strongly reliant on the concepts of "methods of agreement" and "difference," both of which are essential in showing causality and correlations between variables in a scientific research. He also looks into the roles of deductive and inductive reasoning, stressing its advantages and disadvantages. Mill's writing is notable for its clarity and precision, making complex philosophical concepts understandable to a broad audience.

Saxon

Book 1 of the Saxon Chronicles

By: Stuart Davies

Paul Saxon, the level-headed commander of an elite serial killer detection squad and his loyal partner Detective Sergeant Guy "Nosey" Parker are sent to the village of Sewel Mill, near Brighton on the south coast of England to catch a devious killer who has mastered the ability to commit murder without leaving forensic evidence. Several men are murdered and just when Saxon believes a pattern is emerging, the killer changes his strategy, which is almost unheard of with serial killers. He starts to play games with Saxon, sending him riddles to unravel with the expectation he won't. When Saxon proves a worthy adversary, the killer turns the tables on Saxon threatening those close to him. Saxon, continually struggling to come to terms with the murder of his father and stressed by his recent separation from his wife, starts to think the unthinkable - the only way to catch the killer is unthinkable...let him kill again. With no solid leads to go on, what else can he do? This is a multifaceted tale with red herrings and blind alleys that will leave the reader wishing there were more pages to turn after they're through...and there will be.

Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness

By: Rosa Chun,Rui Da Silva,Gary Davies,Stuart Roper

This unique book written by four world leaders in reputation research, presents the latest cutting-edge thinking on organizational improvement. It covers media management, crisis management, the use of logos and other aspects of corporate identity, and argues the case for reputation management as a way of overseeing long-term organizational strategy. It presents a new approach to managing reputation, one that relies on surveying customers and employees on their view of the corporate character and in harmonizing the values of both. This approach has been trialled in a number of organizations and here the authors demonstrate how improving reputation, merely by learning more about what a company is already doing, is worth some five per cent sales growth. The book is a vital, up to date resource for specialists in corporate communication, public relations, marketing, HRM, and business strategy as well as for all senior management. Highly illustrated with over eighty diagrams and tables, it includes up to the minute illustrative case studies and interviews with leading authorities in the field.

College Rhymes and Notes by an Oxford Chiel Acrostics, Inscriptions and Other Verses Three Sunsets and Other Poems The Hunting of the Snark The Life and Letters of Lewis Carroll The Life and Letters of Lewis Carroll is a biography written by Carroll's nephew, Stuart Dodgson Collingwood, and published in 1898. It accidentally started the entire image of Lewis Carroll as a pedophile by deliberately suppressing all the evidence for his sometimes unconventional relationships with women, explaining that some of those women had been little girls… The Victorians had no concept of our modern idea of pedophilia. In fact, a man who loved pre-pubescent girls was considered especially saintly and innocent, and this was why Collingwood over-emphasized this aspect of his uncle's character so much. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson better known by the pseudonym Lewis Carroll (1832 – 1898), was an English author, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon and photographer. Stuart Dodgson Collingwood (1870–1937) was an English clergyman and headmaster. He wrote two books about his uncle, Lewis Carroll.
