The Powerwatch Handbook - Jean Philips - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

The Powerwatch Handbook - Jean Philips - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

Are you keeping safe? Electrical wiring and appliances, overhead power lines, machinery, photocopiers, mobiles and cordless telephones, radio masts, TVs, tube trains, x-rays and laser beams are amongst the hundreds of everyday items that are now known to give off high levels of microwave radiation. Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can be biologically active and capable of making changes to the structure of human and animal cells which are exposed to them. Long-term exposure is believed by an increasing number of scientists and environmentalists to be connected to tumours, fertility problems, behaviour and mood changes, concentration and memory loss, and also to affect melatonin production and impair our immune system repair mechanisms. The Powerwatch Handbook is a simple no-nonsense guide to EMFs and how to reduce their harmful effect. Alasdair and Jean Philips present their information in a practical, positive and lively way, in an easy-to-follow handbook style. EMF levels are graded using a star rating system, high level items are highlighted, and practical tips given in step-by-step, bullet point form.

The Economic Problems of Europe - M. Philips Price - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Economic Problems of Europe - M. Philips Price - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

First Published in 1928 The Economic Problems of Europe presents a comprehensive overview of the economic and political transformation of Europe since the First World War. European and world problems often tend to be looked upon from the political, diplomatic, naval, or military aspect. Morgan Philips Price attempted to add the economic background and to show the connection between the political rearrangements since the First World War and the material needs of society, markets of the industrialist, the wages of the workman, and the loans of the bankers. He argued that with the growing internationalization of the world economy, the old map of the world is obsolete and the new one, if it is based on frontiers of finance and industry, will be something very different. This book is an essential read for scholars and researchers of economic history, war history, political economy, British economic history and European history.

Two Revolutions and the Constitution - James D. R. Philips - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Two Revolutions and the Constitution - James D. R. Philips - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

How and why did Americans conceive a republic built on individual liberty, in an era or oppressive monarchies? This book describes the origins of the rights and liberties which the Constitution protects, including their roots in the English Revolution and republic. It also tells the story of revolutionary American progress from British colonies to a new nation founded on the world’s first written Constitution. This book describes how developments in England since Magna Carta had enabled liberty and representative government to develop in England and in America. The English replaced two kings in their revolutions of the seventeenth century, and the author explains how those revolutions resulted in enduring constitutional changes. This book shows that the charges against George III in the Declaration of Independence mirrored the charges against Charles I at the founding of the English republic. Philips considers why the American colonies were partially self-governing from their founding, and how the founding charters of the colonies contained seeds of American rebellion in the 1760s and 1770s. This book explains the gap between British and colonial Americans’ perceptions of their constitutional rights, and how that gap led to British oppression and American rebellion. By means of the Constitution, the Framers aimed to establish a federal, national, and republican system of government which would protect Americans’ liberties. The author explores how the Framers’ experience of British colonial government, the American colonial charters, the innovations in the first American constitutions (the State constitutions), and the failure of the Confederation in the revolutionary period, all influenced the Framers in drafting the final Constitution.

The Moral and Physical Condition of the Working Classes Employed in the Cotton Manufacture of Manchester - James Philips Kay Shuttleworth - Bog -

The Moral and Physical Condition of the Working Classes Employed in the Cotton Manufacture of Manchester - James Philips Kay Shuttleworth - Bog -

This book was originally published in 1832. Dr. James Philips Kay (later Sir James Kay Shuttleworth) studied medicine in Edinburgh and then began to practise in Manchester where he acquired a wide knowledge of working-class conditions and diseases. In 1831-2 he acted as secretary to the Manchester Board of Health which was set up to combat the threatened cholera epidemic, and it is thanks in part to the devoted labours of Kay and his colleagues that the epidemic in Manchester was less severe than in other cities. This vividly written pamphlet embodies the fruits of Kay Shuttleworth''s experiences in the capital of the cotton kingdom. He describes the newly set up Boards of Health investigatings into the state of Manchester''s poor, and enumerates the causes of their physical depression, with all its attendant moral degradation and predisposition to disease. As well as supplying statistics for pauperism, crime and mortality, Shuttleworth provides suggestions for improving working class conditions. This is the best known of all the literature produced about workers'' ocnditions in the early nineteenth century, and is a work which has been widely quoted and used by both economic and social historians.

Castles of Wales - Alan Philips - Bog - Amberley Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Castles of Wales - Alan Philips - Bog - Amberley Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Wales, a small country, is littered with the relics of war – Iron Age forts, Roman ruins, medieval castles and the coastal forts of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The biggest construction of fortifications in Wales took place during the reign of Edward I. They were not only built to deter an invader, but to control the frequent Welsh uprisings. The next wave of constructions occurred during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, when a number of forts and gun emplacements were built, mostly in South Wales, to deter a seaborne invasion.The twentieth century introduced a new mode of defence, especially during the two world wars, in the form of pillboxes, tank traps and gun emplacements. The various airfields constructed were the most visible form of defence and could be regarded as the castles of the period. This book looks at how Welsh castles protected Wales to make it what it is today.

Sådan taler medier og borgere om politik - Louise Philips - Bog - Aarhus Universitetsforlag - Plusbog.dk

Sådan taler medier og borgere om politik - Louise Philips - Bog - Aarhus Universitetsforlag - Plusbog.dk

I den offentlige debat i Danmark om mediernes rolle i den demokratiske proces har der i årtier været enighed om, at medierne i stigende omfang underminerer borgernes muligheder for at fungere demokratisk hensigtsmæssigt. Det gælder ikke mindst vurderingen af det underholdende tv-medies rolle i demokratiet. Det er imidlertid påfaldende, at debatten har været ført stort set, uden at der har foreligget nogen forskningsmæssig viden om samspillet mellem borgere og medier. De undersøgelser, som fremlægges i denne bog, indeholder den første større kvalitative analyse af, hvordan medierne iscenesætter politik defineret i bred forstand som hele spektret fra parlamentarisk politik over græsrodspolitik til politisk handling i hverdagen. Det viser sig blandt andet, at mediernes iscenesættelse af politik i høj grad er præget af den positive fremstilling af ´demokratiet i arbejdstøjet´, samtidig med at der også ofte anlægges en kritisk vinkel, der viser borgeren i et modsætningsforhold til det politiske system.Bogen undersøger også, hvad borgerne faktisk bruger medierne til i samspillet mellem hverdagsliv og demokrati. Det viser sig her, at borgerne generelt er velorienterede om samfundsanliggender og politik. Dertil kommer, at de er særdeles mediekyndige og ikke uden videre køber mediernes billede af den politiske virkelighed.

And This Is My Friend Sandy - Dr Deborah Philips - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

And This Is My Friend Sandy - Dr Deborah Philips - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

This book situates the production of The Boy Friend and the Players’ Theatre in the context of a post-war London and reads The Boy Friend , and Wilson''s later work, as exercises in contemporary camp. It argues for Wilson as a significant and transitional figure both for musical theatre and for modes of homosexuality in the context of the pre-Wolfenden 1950s.Sandy Wilson''s The Boy Friend is one of the most successful British musicals ever written. First produced at the Players'' Theatre Club in London in 1953 it transferred to the West End and Broadway, making a star out of Julie Andrews and gave Twiggy a leading role in Ken Russell''s 1971 film adaptation. Despite this success, little is known about Wilson, a gay writer working in Britain in the 1950s at a time when homosexuality was illegal.Drawing on original research assembled from the Wilson archives at the Harry Ransom Center, this is the first critical study of Wilson as a key figure of 1950s British theatre. Beginning with the often overlooked context of the Players'' Theatre Club through to Wilson''s relationship to industry figures such as Binkie Beaumont, Noël Coward and Ivor Novello, this study explores the work in the broader history of Soho gay culture. As well as a critical perspective on The Boy Friend , later works such as Divorce Me, Darling! , The Buccaneer and Valmouth are examined as well as uncompleted musical versions of Pygmalion and Goodbye to Berlin to give a comprehensive and original perspective on one of British theatre''s most celebrated yet overlooked talents.
