FOCUS' is a look at Arrogance and Greed as an American cancer, it
applies analytical engineering skills to humanities problems in
today's world from an engineer's stand point, that of an everyday
citizen; a Joe plumber', whose had all we can take of being told we
are un-American by our politicians, it intends to speak out on
behalf of the everyday citizen who may have serious doubts as to
what is what. It offers solutions which seem to be logical and
somewhat easy to see. Though easy to see they require a major
rethinking of the constitution to fit the modern society's
situation. Simply tired of talk show host and media moguls pointing
out the problems but shy of offering difficult solutions for which
they could be held accountable. Engineers or Plumbers just aren't
satisfied with finding a cause of the problem, but are about fixing
it. That sometimes requires redesign or fix, correcting design
errors. But we do eventually FIX IT. The Lawyer wants arbitration
until either a compromise or settlement occurs. Media Moguls want
to have an endless supply of Sensational Stories. Politics may be
how it sounds, Poly (many) + Ticks (blood suckers). Political (this
or that occupation) well, draw your conclusion.
Locke's two groundbreaking treatises regarding sound methods of
governance are united in this complete edition. At the time these
treatises were written, English politics had undergone decades of
upheaval in the wake of the English Civil War. When Dutch monarch
William of Orange ascended to the English throne in the Glorious
Revolution of 1688, burning questions over the best form of
governance for England were prominent in the intelligentsia of the
era. It was a time when England grappled with its incremental
transition from monarchy to early forms of democracy and right to
vote, where dynastic monarchy and religious theory still held
considerable power over the formation of the state. Lauded as a
classic of political philosophy, the treatises by Locke are a
common requirement in various educational courses concerning
political science and philosophy to this day.

This book chronicles the creation, evolution, and multifaceted
impact of the University of Alabama HuntsvilleFoundation (UAHF). It
traces the growth of the city of Huntsville and the area
surrounding it as an internationally acclaimed center for research
and development in science, engineering, and technology. The author
describes the concurrent evolution of The University of Alabama in
Huntsville (UAH) as the pre-eminent academic center in Alabama for
research in engineering, physical science, environmental science,
and computational science. He recounts theseminal contributions
that the UAH Foundation, and the outstanding men and women who have
constituted its members, has made in helping to make some very good
things to happen in Huntsville, Alabama. The UAHF is a rarity among
university-related foundations in that the UAHF existed even before
the university it now serves was created. The books chapters detail
how Huntsville leaders came together to form the predecessor of the
UAHF as landholding operation supporting the orderly development of
Cummings Research Park, of which UAH occupies the easternmost
extremity. Later chapters describe how the UAHF gradually took on
greater and greater responsibility for the support of UAH itself,
becoming, ultimately, UAH's independent, university-related
foundation.

the queen of the fairies" to "Zounds: an oath contracted from God's
wounds," and features numerous appendices and supplements on

work, the result of arduous research and stalwart dedication.
Serious scholars and zealous fans will find the Lexicon the
ultimate guide to reading and decoding the Bard.
Homi Bhabha: An Introduction and Critique is a pathbreaking
three-volume study of the celebrated postcolonial scholar's work.
McLaverty-Robinson's careful reading renders Bhabha's theories in
plain English, without losing their meaning. In addition,
McLaverty-Robinson's incisive critique cuts through the theoretical
aura of Bhabha's work and explores whether his theories work in
practice - either empirically or politically. This third and final
volume explores the political content and implications of Bhabha's
work. It explores Bhabha's political proposals, such as the ideas
of a community of suffering and a right to narrate. It also
explores Bhabha's relationship to neoliberalism and to the
Eurocommunist current in the 1980s, and his critical engagements
with liberalism, communitarianism, Marxism, critical race theory,
Deleuze and Guattari, and Frantz Fanon. This volume also includes
an entire chapter providing a background on neoliberalism, and a
comprehensive index covering all three volumes.
