Название: That's What They Want You to Think: Conspiracies Real, Possible, and Paranoid Автор: Paul Simpson Издательство: Zenith Press Год: 2012 Формат: EPUB Размер: 15 Мб Язык: английский / English
You don’t need to be wearing a tinfoil hat to accept that Lincoln was assassinated by a conspiracy - it’s a historical fact. But these days the phrase “conspiracy theory” has become synonymous with labyrinthine plots and nebulous clues hidden in blown-up photos and arcane paintings. The simple suggestion of a conspiracy is often dismissed by the mainstream media as if inherently impossible. That’s What They Want You to Think sorts through the most well-known theories—both historically accepted and summarily dismissed—to provide an overview of the real, the possible, and the paranoid. Conspiracies covered include Pearl Harbor, JFK, MLK, Lincoln, Princess Diana, John Lennon, Roswell, Freemasons, Watergate, 9/11 and more! |

Название: How About Never Is Never Good for You?: My Life in Cartoons Автор: Bob Mankoff Издательство: Henry Holt and Co. Год: 2014 Формат: EPUB Размер: 35 Мб Язык: английский / English
The New York Times bestselling memoir in cartoons by the longtime cartoon editor of The New Yorker. People tell Bob Mankoff that as the cartoon editor of The New Yorker he has the best job in the world. Never one to beat around the bush, he explains to us, in the opening of this singular, delightfully eccentric book, that because he is also a cartoonist at the magazine he actually has two of the best jobs in the world. With the help of myriad images and his funniest, most beloved cartoons, he traces his love of the craft all the way back to his childhood, when he started doing funny drawings at the age of eight. After meeting his mother, we follow his unlikely stints as a high-school basketball star, draft dodger, and sociology grad student. |

 Название: Далекая близкая война: Как россияне воспринимают военные действия в Украине (февраль-июнь 2022) Автор: Ерпылева С., Савельева Н. (ред. Издательство: Лаборатория публичной социологии Год: 2022 Формат: pdf, djvu Страниц: 301 Размер: 23 mb Язык: Русский
Опросы редко помогают понять особенности восприятия россиянами войны. Например, одни россияне отвечают на вопросы о поддержке «специальной военной операции» на территории Украины утвердительно, а другие — отрицательно. Но что именно поддерживают первые и что не нравится вторым? Более того, скорее всего лишь незначительная часть россиян имеет однозначное мнение по поводу «спецоперации», в то время как позицию большей части людей невозможно описать простыми формулами «за» или «против». |
