Blue was ready to start her new life, but unfinished business could just be the death of her... For Blue and Forrest, making it back to Karran was the easy part. They were prepared to learn a new language, new customs and tackle a new kind of relationship. When Blue's reunion with Mo'ata is marred by unfinished business, she has a decision to make: proceed with her original plan and attend classes at the Ministry's Academy, or set herself up as bait for a madman. Phillip is still out there, still using that crystal, still killing. Throw in cub-babies with razor claws, overprotective clansmen and mercenaries, and long-lost mob families, she's once again in over her head. But that's all part of the adventure, right...?

This book was released on 2006. Blue Frontier available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The 2005 hurricane season has made the author's case: public attention is focused as never before on inappropriate coastal development, misuse of wetlands, risks of offshore drilling and oil supply, and global warming impacts. 1/3 of the new edition has been revised. It includes book reports on the findings of two blue-ribbon commissions: Pew Oceans Comm. 2004 and the US Comm. on Ocean Policy 2004. In this compelling book, which Bill McKibben calls the most comprehensive account available of the state of our nation's oceans, and the best reporting on how they got that way, veteran journalist David Helvarg fuses his passion for the sea and his reportorial savvy into a panoramic chronicle of America's maritime history and the challenges that our coastal and marine environments face today.

This book was released on 2017-03-21. Seasteading available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In these “thought-provoking visions of the future” (The Wall Street Journal), Joe Quirk and Patri Friedman of the Seasteading Institute explain how ocean cities can solve many of our environmental, technological, and civic problems, and introduce the visionaries and pioneers who are now making seasteading a reality. Our planet has been suffering from serious environmental problems and their social and political consequences. But imagine a vast new source of sustainable and renewable energy that would also bring more equitable economies. A previously untapped source of farming that could produce significant new sources of nutrition. Future societies where people could choose the communities they want to live in, free from the restrictions of conventional citizenship. This extraordinary vision of our near future as imagined in Seasteading attracted the powerful support of Silicon Valley’s Peter Thiel—and it may be drawing close to reality. Facing growing environmental threats, French Polynesia has already signed on to build some of the world’s first seasteads. Joe Quirk and Patri Friedman show us how cities built on floating platforms in the ocean will work, and they profile some of the visionaries who are implementing basic concepts of seasteading today. An entrepreneur’s dream, these floating cities will become laboratories for innovation and creativity. Seasteading “offers hope for a future when life on land has grown grim” (Kirkus Reviews), proving the adage that yesterday’s science fiction is tomorrow’s science fact.

Download and read online ebook Hegel and the Metaphysical Frontiers of Political Theory write by Eric Lee Goodfield. This book was released on 2014-06-27. Hegel and the Metaphysical Frontiers of Political Theory available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. For over one hundred and fifty years G.W.F. Hegel’s ghost has haunted theoretical understanding and practice. His opponents first, and later his defenders, have equally defined their programs against and with his. In this way Hegel’s political thought has both situated and displaced modern political theorizing. This book takes the reception of Hegel’s political thought as a lens through which contemporary methodological and ideological prerogatives are exposed. It traces the nineteenth century origins of the positivist revolt against Hegel’s legacy forward to political science’s turn away from philosophical tradition in the twentieth century. The book critically reviews the subsequent revisionist trend that has eliminated his metaphysics from contemporary considerations of his political thought. It then moves to re-evaluate their relation and defend their inseparability in his major work on politics: the Philosophy of Right. Against this background, the book concludes with an argument for the inherent metaphysical dimension of political theorizing itself. Goodfield takes Hegel’s reception, representation, as well as rejection in Anglo-American scholarship as a mirror in which its metaphysical presuppositions of the political are exceptionally well reflected. It is through such reflection, he argues, that we may begin to come to terms with them. This book will be of great interest to students, scholars, and readers of political theory and philosophy, Hegel, metaphysics and the philosophy of the social sciences.
