Book Description
The world has changed immeasurably since 2020 and this book, written before anyone had ever heard of Covid-19, places the ‘pandemic’ into its true context. Many of the changes in society since 2020 were predicted in this book which explains the real reason for those transformations of society. The book also features an examination of the takeover, infiltration and realignment of the alternative media with mainstream perspectives and perceptions. Paper View: In Print places current events into a completely new context. People find the world and daily events so difficult to understand because they lack the necessary knowledge. Paper View: In Print provides the information to read the world like an open book. The world is run by a cult with global reach and power with a nightmare agenda for humanity. Never before has their agenda been described so concisely, clearly and comprehensively between the covers of one book … until now. Paper View: In Print is a book you will be referring back to many times when seeing current events unfold and society changing around you. Over 660 pages, Daniel Ford provides an invaluable guide to the world and current events. You’ve heard the podcast, now read the book. If you’ve ever wanted Paper View in paper form, then this is the book for you. This is Paper View in print, but it’s so much more. Paper View Extra, you might call it. An enormous amount of new information not in the original podcast episodes is in this book. The book covers a wide range of subjects encompassing the entire spectrum of society, and explains clearly and simply the connections, placing news stories, world events and changes in society in their true context. One of the most controversial and explosive books published in 2020, the book doesn’t hold back and speaks out on the truth behind them. This book could not have been published at a more important time. People have a nagging sense of unease and face constant confusion amidst many questions about the world and society. Paper View: In Print was written to provide the answers, and it does so in an accessible way which connects the dots to form the picture. The book also features various illustrations. Daniel Ford has spent the last 17 years uncovering the answers and investigating official explanations from authority, whose simplistic replies only seem to lead to more questions, not answers, and in this book, he presents a life’s work in dot-connecting to show the true context of our everyday lives. This book is highly recommended for parents, as the book covers every example of how children and young people today are the most targeted age group and generations in human history, including mental health, technology and social media, gender, education/school system among many other subjects.

Book Description
AA Gill has been the must-read television critic in the Sunday Times 'Culture' section for more than ten years. This collection of some of the best writing from his columns is broken down into themes - Sport, Costume Drama, Detectives, Children's Television, and News. And now it's over to AA Gill... "Those who complain, usually from the Parnassian heights of print journalism, that TV is dumbed-down and peddles dross to the lowest common denominator, citing Big Brother or Celibate Love Island, miss the point. Reality TV is the exception; it's a tiny proportion of television's output. Most of broadcasting tells you things, and it's TV's great gift to impart information. The real criticism should be that it doesn't differentiate enough. It doesn't know the value of the stuff it pours out in a constant warm stream. We absorb what's useful and interesting. In barely a generation, the information from television has changed the way we see the world and everyone in it. That's no small achievement. Television really does make a difference. There are obvious individual examples: 'Cathy Come Home'; the newsreel of the Vietnam war in America; the Ethiopian famine. And television has utterly changed sport. Do you imagine there'd be anything like this fuss over an Olympics bid if it was only going to be shown on Pathe newsreel? Charities and pressure groups, from pillar-box conservation to animal welfare and cancer research, glean power and funds from tiny exposures on the box. It can bring down walls, save lives and right wrongs. It can also tell you how to put a water feature on your patio..."

Working with Paper
Author: Carla Bittel
Publisher: University of Pittsburgh Press
ISBN: 0822986809
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Working with Paper builds on a growing interest in the materials of science by exploring the gendered uses and meanings of paper tools and technologies, considering how notions of gender impacted paper practices and in turn how paper may have structured knowledge about gender. Through a series of dynamic investigations covering Europe and North America and spanning the early modern period to the twentieth century, this volume breaks new ground by examining material histories of paper and the gendered worlds that made them. Contributors explore diverse uses of paper—from healing to phrenological analysis to model making to data processing—which often occurred in highly gendered, yet seemingly divergent spaces, such as laboratories and kitchens, court rooms and boutiques, ladies’ chambers and artisanal workshops, foundling houses and colonial hospitals, and college gymnasiums and state office buildings. Together, they reveal how notions of masculinity and femininity became embedded in and expressed through the materials of daily life. Working with Paper uncovers the intricate negotiations of power and difference underlying epistemic practices, forging a material history of knowledge in which quotidian and scholarly practices are intimately linked.

The Last Vispo Anthology
Author: Crag Hill
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
ISBN: 1606996266
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
This book collects experimental “visual poetry.” With The Last Vispo Anthology, Fantagraphics spotlights the intersection of art and language in this innovative new collection ― without peer in English ― that gathers the work of visual poets from around the world into one stunning volume. The alphabet is turned on its head and inside-out and the results culminate in a compilation of daring and surprising verbo-visual gems. The Last Vispo is composed of visual poetry (a portmanteau of the words “visual” and “poetry) from the years 1998 to 2008, during a burst of creative activity fueled by file sharing and e-mail, which made it possible for the vispo community to establish a more heightened and sophisticated dialogue with one another. The collection extends the dialectic between art and literature that began with ancient “shaped text,” medieval pattern poetry, and dada typography, pushing past the concrete poetics of the 1950s and the subsequent mail art movement of the 1980s to its current incarnation. Rather than settle into predictable, unchallenged patterns, this vibrant poetry seizes new tools to expand the body of work that inhabits the borderlands of visual art and poetic language. The Last Vispo features 148 contributors from 23 countries on five continents. It includes 12 essays that illuminate the abundant history and the state of vispo today. The anthology offers a broad amalgam of long-time practitioners and poets new to visual poetry over the last decade, underscoring the longevity and the continued vitality of the art form.

Book Description
We have described the development of a new micro-payment system, NetPay, f- turing different ways of managing electronic money, or e-coins. NetPay provides an off-line, anonymous protocol that supports high-volume, low-cost electronic trans- tions over the Internet. We developed three kinds of e-wallets to manage coins in a NetPay-based system: a sever-side e-wallet allowing multiple computer access to- coins; a client-side e-wallet allowing customer PC management of the e-coins, and a cookie-based e-wallet cache to improve performance of the client-side e-wallet c- munication overhead. Experiences to date with NetPay prototypes have demonstrated it provides an effective micro-payment strategy and customers welcome the ability to manage their electronic coins in different ways.
