Feminism and the Power of Law

In this now established text the author presents her analysis of the power of law and argues for a feminist post-structuralist approach. She comments on pornography, as well as discussing recent research on rape trials and abortion legislation.

Power of the Talking Stick

Indigenous Politics and the World Ecological Crisis

The Power of the Talking Stick makes the case that, reaching back to the beginning of the nation-state and all through the current period of corporate-led globalisation, our governments and social institutions have been engaged in activities that will ultimately extinguish the world's ecological life support systems. This book offers an alternative, listening to indigenous leaders and others whose voices often go unheard in the din of contemporary culture. Sharon Ridgeway and Peter Jacques offer a stark warning, but their insights are firmly grounded in traditional knowledge and provide a way to see past the politics and rescue the earth. An important resource for climate activists, students and academics.

PREFACE LESSONS IN LISTENING The Mi«kmaw people of contemporary
Nova Scotia, Canada, have a tradition of using a ®talking stick, ̄ and this tool is
used to ensure that anyone who has something to say is given the space and
deference to do so. In American Indian Quarterly, Laura Donaldson describes it
this way: Our Mi«kmaw ancestors used the Talking Stick to guarantee that
everyone who wanted to speak would have a chance to be heard and that they
would be allowed ...

A Comparison of the Heat Transport Effectiveness of Some Coolants and Homogeneous Fuels Used in the Primary Loop of Nuclear Powerplants

The Effectiveness of Airpower in the 20th Century

Part Two (1939-1945)

"This volume ... looks at the air arms of seven nations engaged in [World War II]: France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, the USSR and the United States. Selected campaigns are discussed in detail to illustrate how national pre-war airpower doctrine was applied, and what results were achieved."--Preface.
