Collins CAPE Revision Guides focus on the content and skills
students need to master for success in CAPE examinations. They
cover all aspects of the syllabus and provide excellent help with
exam preparation. Collins CAPE Revision Guide - CARIBBEAN STUDIES
is an essential title for all students sitting the CAPE CARIBBEAN
STUDIES exam. With clear and accessible information, practice
questions, and exam tips, it is a key resource to help students
prepare for the exam. The revision guide includes a comprehensive
section on Research Principles and Research Practice to support
students with their school-based assessment. It also includes
chapters on every section of the syllabus, both Module 1 and Module
2, cross-referencing topics that students may need to relate and
refer to in essay questions. Advice is given on how to approach
exam questions and construct well-structured essays, and multiple
choice questions are included at the end of every section for
practice purposes.
This volume is a collection of phenomenological investigations of
the political domain. Its aim is to present recent examinations of
political matters and to foster a renewal of this sort of inquiry
in phenomenology generally. Although it has often gone
unrecognized, investigations of this sort have been a part of the
phenomenological project since its inception. Two phases can be
identified: the first governed primarily by the methods of
realistic and constitutive phenomenology, and the second under the
guidance of existential and hermeneutical approaches. Standard
accounts of the history of phenomenology begin, of course, with the
publication of Husserl's Logische Untersuchungen (1900-1901) in
which for the first time he publicly developed and applied his
distinctively descriptive approach-the so-called method of eidetic
analysis with its unique emphasis on the concept of evidence
understood as intention fulfillment-to the fields of logical and
mathematical systems. But those around him in Gottingen quickly saw
the innovative character of this method and began employing it in a
wide variety of other areas of research: literature, sociology,
ethics, action theory, and even theology, for example.

A groundbreaking collection of writings by Michel Foucault and the
Prisons Information Group documenting their efforts to expose
France's inhumane treatment of prisoners Founded by Michel Foucault
and others in 1970-71, the Prisons Information Group (GIP)
circulated information about the inhumane conditions within the
French prison system. Intolerable makes available for the first
time in English a fully annotated compilation of materials produced
by the GIP during its brief but influential existence, including an
exclusive new interview with GIP member Helene Cixous and writings
by Gilles Deleuze and Jean Genet. These archival documents-public
announcements, manifestos, reports, pamphlets, interventions, press
conference statements, interviews, and round table
discussions-trace the GIP's establishment in post-1968 political
turmoil, the new models of social activism it pioneered, the prison
revolts it supported across France, and the retrospective
assessments that followed its denouement. At the same time,
Intolerable offers a rich, concrete exploration of Foucault's
concept of resistance, providing a new understanding of the arc of
his intellectual development and the genesis of his most
influential book, Discipline and Punish. Presenting the account of
France's most vibrant prison resistance movement in its own words
and on its own terms, this significant and relevant collection also
connects the approach and activities of the GIP to radical prison
resistance movements today.

There are very few things more frightening than to know that no
matter how many facts must be ignored and laws must be defied to
rule against me, the judges in Massachusetts will do just that to
deny me justice as a vocal critic of the courts. While reading this
book, keep in mind that the judges exposed as corrupt in this book
are not corrupt because they ruled against me, which is what the
racketeers working in the Massachusetts court system would like you
to believe to discredit me. They are corrupt because they had to
conspire among themselves to defy the law, defy their code of
conduct, and commit fraud to rule against me. Since the state of
Massachusetts has illegally denied to me my Seventh Amendment right
to plead my cases before a jury of my peers and since every state
and federal agency that allegedly exists to hold corrupt public
officials accountable has negligently failed to perform this duty;
I am asking that you, the readers, be my jury.
A finalist in the National Indie Excellence 2008 book awards, this
book was written for anyone who suffers from sexual dysfunction,
depression, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia (or cares for
someone who does). Medicines for Mental Health is the first book to
provide detailed and readable information about all psychiatric
medications, and other medical treatments, for these mental
illnesses. Medicines cuts through jargon, demystifies mental
illness, and explains how treatments work. It goes beyond current
fads to cover important medications you need to know about,
including many that will be new to your doctor.
Hegel's Elements of the Philosophy of Right offers an innovative
and important account of normativity, yet the theory set forth
there rests on philosophical foundations that have remained largely
obscure. In Hegel's Theory of Normativity, Kevin Thompson proposes
an interpretation of the foundations that underlie Hegel's theory:
its method of justification, its concept of freedom, and its
account of right. Thompson shows how the systematic character of
Hegel's project together with the metaphysical commitments that
follow from its method are essential to secure this theory against
the challenges of skepticism and to understand its distinctive
contribution to questions regarding normative justification,
practical agency, social ontology, and the nature of critique.
Responding to the upsurge of interest in wind and brass bands, Dr
Kevin Thompson has written a practical manual for all who are
involved with them whether in school or music centres, or in an
adult community band. This essentially pragmatic book - the first
of its kind - gives helpful advice on how to start a band, the
choice of instruments, basic organisation, useful seating plans,
rehearsal tips, composing and scoring for bands of different sizes.
Additionally, there are innovative approaches to instrumental
teaching, new ideas for bringing together classroom and group
instrumental activities, and exciting repertoire suggestions.
