Daily Life During the Reformation
Authors: Anderson James M. 
Published: December 2023

This broad exploration captures the lives of ordinary people during the turbulent period that transformed early Modern Europe.
Organized thematically, Daily Life during the Reformation covers the hectic and tumultuous years between 1517 and 1648, allowing readers to discover what it was like for ordinary people during this critical period and to compare events and living conditions in early Modern Europe with those of today.
With the help of eyewitness accounts, the book focuses on the lives of the people, the conditions in which they lived and died, their roles in the unfolding events of the Reformation, and the Reformation’s effects on them. Leading protagonists are described, as are their beliefs and the impact of those beliefs on the population in general and in particular cases. The book also explores, for example, the medical practice of the time, which, while not considered black magic, was close to it.
Hippies
Authors: Issitt Micah 
Published: December 2023

An insightful introduction to hippie culture and how its revolutionary principles in the 1960s helped shape modern culture.
This title explores how hippies, and 1960s counterculture in general, developed and influenced popular culture in America. Covering the years between 1961 and 1972, this is the first volume focused exclusively on the emergence, growth, and lasting legacy of hippie culture, on everything from clothing, hair styles, and music to attitudes toward sex and drugs, and anti-war, anti-establishment activism.
Hippies includes a chronology, topical chapters on hippie culture, biographies, primary documents, and a glossary. Coverage ranges from an examination of hippie involvement in drug use, politics, sexual behavior, and music, and a contemporary perspective on lasting impact of hippies on modern American life. Readers will encounter famous icons of the era, from Abbie Hoffman to Timothy Leary, while getting a real sense of what life inside the hippie counterculture was like.
The History of Russia
Authors: Ziegler Charles E. 
Published: December 2023

An updated edition of the acclaimed history of Russia, this new volume includes a wealth of material on events of the last decade.
When first published, Charles Ziegler’s The History of Russia was acclaimed as a source of information not easily found elsewhere, and as “clear, balanced, and insightful,” by Rajan Menon of Lehigh University. Now Ziegler’s remarkable volume returns, fully updated to be the work of choice for readers looking for an introduction to the history of the world's largest country.
The History of Russia: Second Edition moves from the 10th-century founding of Kievan Rus to the czars to the Communist Era to the present, with particular emphasis on the fall of the Soviet Union and the leadership of Mikhail Gorbachev, Boris Yeltsin, and Vladimir Putin. In addition to a new chapter on the tumultuous last decade, this edition features an updated introduction and an expanded chapter on the Yeltsin Era.
Lethal Encounters
Authors: Cave Alfred A. 
Published: December 2023

This in-depth narrative history of the interactions between English settlers and American Indians during the Virginia colony's first century explains why a harmonious coexistence proved impossible.
Britain's first successful settlements in America occurred over 400 years ago. Not surprisingly, the historical accounts of these events have often contained inaccuracies. This compelling study of colonial Virginia is based upon the latest research, shedding new light on the tensions between the English and the American Indians and clarifying the facts about storied relationships.
In Lethal Encounters: Englishmen and Indians in Colonial Virginia, the author examines why the Anglo settlers were unable to establish a peaceful and productive relationship with the region's native inhabitants. Readers will come to understand how the deep prejudices harbored by both whites and Indians, the incompatibility of their economic and social systems, and the leadership failures of protagonists like John Smith, Powhatan, Opechacanough, and William Berkeley caused this breakdown.
Modern Piracy
Authors: Marley David F. 
Published: December 2023

This reference text explains what modern piracy is, where and why it happens, and what measures are being taken to combat it.
While piracy today typically occurs in specific areas—such as Somalia and Southeast Asia—a single pirate attack can involve and affect many different countries. For example, a supertanker traveling in the South China Sea might be owned by a Saudi Arabian oil company, built in South Korea, registered in Liberia, captained by an Italian, and crewed by Filipinos. And, as reports of attacks on commercial vessels and cruise liners become more common, the topic of modern piracy receives ever-increasing international scrutiny.
This chapter-based reference handbook examines modern piracy from the mid-1970s to today. The subject is addressed from a global perspective, covering both the causes and consequences of present-day piracy and evaluating its impact on a number of related issues, including international law, commercial shipping, and terrorism.
Hope and Kinship in Contemporary Fiction
Authors: Bauer Gero 
Published: December 2023

Explores the emphasis that contemporary novels, films and television series place on the present, arguing that hope emerges from the potentiality of the here and now, rather than the future, and as intimately entangled with negotiations of structures of belonging.
Taking its cue from an understanding of hope as connoting an organizing temporality, one which is often presumed to be in the future, Hope and Kinship in Contemporary Fiction challenges this understanding, arguing that hope emerges in practices of relationality in the present, disentangling hope from a necessary correlation with futurity.
Through close readings of contemporary works, including The Road, The Walking Dead, Cloud Atlas, Sense8 and A Little Life, Gero Bauer investigates how these texts explore structures of kinship as creative and affective practices of belonging and care that claim spaces beyond the heterosexual, reproductive nuclear family. In this context, the fictional figurations of the child – often considered the bearer of the future – is of particular interest.
Through these interventions into definitions of and reflections on fictional manifestations of hope and kinship, Bauer’s analyses intersect with queer theory, new materialism and postcritical approaches to literature and cultural studies, moving away from pessimistic readings of the present moment.

Supply Chain Finance in SMEs A Conceptual Analysis
Authors: Mahaboob Basha H. Dr. Asifulla A., 
Published: December 2023

This paper addresses the relatively new concept of supply chain finance (SCF) and its application in SMEs. The flow of financial resources in supply chains is most important and has become the focus of study. As a result, the integration of finance and supply chain management has opened new business areas for banks as well as financial and logistics service providers. Supply Chain Finance solution can create a 'win-win' situation for both buyer and supplier. So this research article focuses on the study of supply chain finance (SCF) in SMEs.
Despite the fact that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in India account for over 62 million jobs and approximately 30 percent of the country's GDP, the great majority of them lack access to affordable loans from traditional banks. They are so often left with little choice but to resort to informal lenders, who charge usurious interest rates in order to meet their borrowing demands. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly vulnerable to the negative effects of the credit gap, which include but are not limited to higher costs, lower profits, slower growth, and a lack of resilience in the face of economic volatility (Iyer, 2021). Here, supply chain financing (SCF) could be helpful in bridging the trust gap by equipping lenders with more resources to manage credit risk and broadening the scope of financing to include vast pools of poorly understood MSMEs. SCF provides buyers and sellers with risk mitigation solutions based on technological advancements in order to reduce financing costs and increase company efficiency. Since SCF is still in its infancy, there is a pressing need to make this facility accessible to the vast majority of MSMEs so that they, in turn, can benefit from the positive effect it has on the performance of currently-adapted firms.
Sociedade do Cansaço e a Invisibilidade do infoproletariado: as fronteiras éticas que as novas tecnologias impõem a classe trabalhadora
Authors: Maika Leonardo Silveira 
Published: December 2023

Resumo: Nas últimas décadas, a transformação da economia e do mercado de trabalho tem despertado questionamentos éticos relacionados ao advento e à prevalência das novas tecnologias. Neste cenário, destaca-se a emergência do "infoproletariado", uma classe trabalhadora cada vez mais subjugada à lógica do trabalho digital e da economia do conhecimento. Paralelamente, essa transformação se dá em um contexto de "sociedade do cansaço", onde o ritmo acelerado e incessante das atividades produtivas impõe um esgotamento físico e mental às pessoas. Este artigo pretende explorar a interseção desses três conceitos: o infoproletariado, a sociedade do cansaço e a ética das novas tecnologias. Discutiremos as implicações da crescente digitalização do trabalho, a sobrecarga cognitiva e emocional dos trabalhadores, e as questões éticas decorrentes da automação e da exploração da força de trabalho neste contexto. Compreender essa complexa rede de relações é crucial para repensar práticas de trabalho mais justas e sustentáveis na era digital. Palavras-chave: Trabalho; Infoproletariado; Inteligência Artificial; Ética; Sociedade do Cansaço; Capitalismo; Economia.
Do crepúsculo dos ídolos à adoração do cotidiano: ciberespaço e idealização do mundo virtual
Authors: Costa Adriano Martins das Dores 
Published: December 2023

Resumo: O avanço da internet propiciou uma situação em que a visibilidade que alguns indivíduos, grupos e entidades alcançam dentro de determinados círculos, e até mesmo em todo o globo, tem chegado a níveis de idolatria e reverência que só podem ser comparadas a um culto, uma religião ou seita. Essa construção de significados é processada através da chamada “autocomunicação de massa”, termo cunhado por Manuel Castells, na qual os próprios indivíduos estabelecem quem possui algum tipo de poder. E são essas novas relações midiáticas que constroem novos ídolos para adoração, elevados da noite para o dia da condição de mortais a deuses. O que se pretende apresentar neste texto é como a Teoria do Mundo Ideal de Platão explica a criação de um novo paraíso, um local idílico e perfeito dentro da internet e como, neste “novo céu”, os usuários da rede estão entronizando esses novos deuses e, consequentemente, prestando sua adoração, alimentando e dando poder a esse panteão forjado a partir de likes. Em contraposição a essa situação, iremos entender como a proposta da inversão das ideias de Platão, idealizada por Nietzsche, pode nos ajudar a compreender este fenômeno social e, quem sabe, superar esta idolatria. Palavras chaves: Platão; Mundo Ideal; Ciberespaço; Redes Sociais; Nietzsche.

Reversibl Splenial Lezyon Sendromu: Nadir Bir Prezentasyon
Authors: DURMUŞ Burçin , ÖZKAYA Sefer 
Published: December 2023

Amaç: Nörolojik hastalıklar arasında sık karşılaşılmamakla birlikte geçici görme bozukluğu şeklinde epileptik nöbet olabilir ve geçici olabilen çeşitli manyetik rezonans görüntüleme değişiklikleri tanı zorluğuna yol açabilir. Bu durumlardan biri de korpus kallozum spleniumunun (KSS) geçici olarak etkilendiği Reversibl Splenial Lezyon Sendromu (RESLES)'dur. Bu yazıda geçici kısa süreli görme bozukluğu ile prezente olan epileptik nöbete bağlı geçici splenial lezyon saptanan bir olgu üzerinden RESLES’e neden
olabilecek diğer hastalıkların tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.

Olgu: Yirmi altı yaşında kadın hasta, sabah saatlerinde başlayan ve 20-30 kez tekrarlayan, 5-6 saniye süren, her iki gözünde bulanık görme/görmeme şikayeti ile acil servise başvurdu. Geçmişinde doğum
sonrası yirmi beşinci günde olduğu, epidural anestezi ile sezaryen yaptığı ve ilaç kullanmadığı öğrenildi. Tıbbi ve aile öyküsünde özellik yoktu. Yaşamsal bulgularda; kan basıncı: 110/75 mmHg, nabız: 82 atım/dk, solunum sayısı: 14/dk, ateş: 36,5°C. Görme şikayeti olmayan hastanın oftalmolojik ve nörolojik muayenesi normaldi. Kan testleri normaldi. Beyin tomografisi normaldi. Difüzyon MR'da CKS'de B1000'de hiperintens, ADC'de ise hipointens lezyon saptandı. Diseksiyon açısından kontrastlı karotis vertebral arter kranyal BT anjiyografisi yapıldı ve normal olduğu görüldü. Epileptik nöbet etiyolojisine yönelik yapılanelektroensefalografide, paroksismal, jeneralize teta frekansında 4-5 saniye süren yavaş dalgalar gözlendi. Epileptik nöbet tanısıyla hastaya 1000 mg/gün levetirasetam yüklemesinin ardından 1000 mg/gün idame tedavisi başlandı. Antiepileptik tedavi sonrasında hastanın şikayetleri düzeldi ve tekrarlamadı.

Sonuç: RESLES bir çok etiyolojik nedenle karşılaşılabilen iyi huylu ve geçici bir durumdur. Tek epileptik nöbette dahi olabilir ve bir çok klinik tabloyu taklit edebilir. Acil servise benzer klinikle başvuran hastalarda diğer acil tanılar ekarte edildikten sonra, RESLES ön tanısının bilinmesi ve akılda tutulması hastanın doğru tedaviye zaman kaybetmeden ulaşmasını sağlaması açısından önemlidir. Olgumuzun bu nedenle demonstratif bir yönü olduğu düşünülerek, olgumuz sunulmaya değer görülmüştür
