Red Magic The World’s Best Fairy Tales Collected and Arranged by Romer Wilson

Red Magic The World’s Best Fairy Tales Collected and Arranged by Romer Wilson

With a Preface and biographies from Jack Zipes as well as the original illustrations by Kay Nielsen this collection of fairy tales originally published by the award-winning Romer Wilson – Green Magic (1928) Silver Magic (1929) and Red Magic (1930) – offers a combination of classic fairy tales alongside lesser known global and diverse tales. Red Magic contains such classics as “Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp” from the Arabian Nights “A Child’s Dream on a Star” by Dickens and “The Chimera” by Hawthorne. It also contains previously unpublished tales such as “Princess Silver Silk” and “The Enchanted Deer. ” It was Romer Wilson’s intention to combine the familiar with the unknown and to introduce authors and cultures from a variety of countries. As a researcher Wilson uncovered a remarkable amount of stories from other countries that remain unknown today. This collection gives voice to unique and intriguing tales that inspire children to have a better understanding of how people and their stories are alike despite major differences. Through his Preface and commentary Jack Zipes shows how all three books are a means to bring people together in the name of peace and justice. These books will therefore be of interest to anyone researching or studying fairy tales folklore and children’s literature as well as global or comparative literature and social justice. | Red Magic The World’s Best Fairy Tales Collected and Arranged by Romer Wilson

Unhappy Beginnings Narratives of Precarity Failure and Resistance in North American Texts

Unhappy Beginnings Narratives of Precarity Failure and Resistance in North American Texts

This book offers the analysis of a selection of North American texts that dismantle and resist normative frames through the resignification of concepts such as unhappiness precarity failure and vulnerability. The chapters bring to the fore how those potentially negative elements can be refigured as ambivalent sites of resistance and social bonding. Following Sara Ahmed’s rereading of happiness other authors such as Judith Butler Wendy Brown Jack Halberstam Lauren Berlant or Henry Giroux are mobilized to interrogate films memoirs and novels that deal with precarity alienation and inequality. The monograph contributes to enlarging the archives of unhappiness by changing the focus from prescribed norms and happy endings to unruly practices and unhappy beginnings. As the different contributors show unhappiness precarity vulnerability or failure can be harnessed to illuminate ways of navigating the world and framing society that do not necessarily conform to the script of happiness—whatever that means. | Unhappy Beginnings Narratives of Precarity Failure and Resistance in North American Texts

Coiled Tubing and Other Stimulation Techniques Formation Damage Well Stimulation Techniques for Production Enhancement

Coiled Tubing and Other Stimulation Techniques Formation Damage Well Stimulation Techniques for Production Enhancement

Good engineers never stop looking for opportunities to improve the performance of their production systems. Performance enhancement methods are always carefully examined and production data is analyzed in order to identify determining factors affecting performance. The two main activities of the production engineer in the petroleum and related industries are reservoir stimulation and artificial lift. The classic solution to maximizing a well's productivity is to stimulate it. The basis for selecting stimulation candidates should be a review of the well's actual and theoretical IPR. Low permeability wells often need fracturing on initial completion. In low permeability zones additional post stimulation production can be significant to the economics however the production engineer needs to make management aware of the true long term potential or else overly optimistic projections can easily be made. The main purpose of stimulation is to enhance the property value by the faster delivery of the petroleum fluid and/or to increase ultimate economic recovery. The aim of reservoir stimulation is to bypass near-wellbore damage and return a well to its “natural” productivity / injectivity to extend a conductive path deep into a formation and thus increase productivity beyond the natural level and to produce hydrocarbon from tight formation. The importance of reservoir stimulation is increasing due to following reasons: • Hydrocarbon fields in their mid-life• Production in these fields are in declining trend• The thrust area: Enhancement of productionHence to improve productivity of the well matrix stimulation and hydraulic fracturing are intended to remedy or even improve the natural connection of the wellbore with the reservoir which could delay the need for artificial lift. This book presents procedures taken in the Oil & Gas Industry for identifying well problems and it suggests means of solving problems with the help of the Coil Tube unit which is used for improving well productivity and techniques like Acidizing and Hydraulic Fracturing. | Coiled Tubing and Other Stimulation Techniques Formation Damage Well Stimulation Techniques for Production Enhancement

Policies lost in translation? Unravelling water reform processes in African waterscapes

Policies lost in translation? Unravelling water reform processes in African waterscapes

Since the 1980s a major change took place in public policies for water resources management. The role of governments shifted under this reform process from an emphasis on investment in the development operation and maintenance of water infrastructure to a focus on managing water resources systems by stipulating general frameworks and defining key principles for water allocation. This interdisciplinary research examines how this water reform process unfolds within four African waterscapes that are historically constituted by natural and social processes. The study analyzes the interplay between public policies designed and implemented by government agencies and the institutions that govern access to and control over water resources among groups of agricultural water users. The findings of this research show that the water reform policies have led to similar outcomes in dissimilar contexts and that water policy only to a limited extent leads to progressive institutional change concerning agricultural water use especially in this neoliberal era. Moreover this research shows that excluding targeted investments in the development of hydraulic infrastructure for historically disadvantaged groups has narrowed the options of the governments to redress the colonial legacy and the capacity of small-scale farmers to move their livelihood beyond subsistence. | Policies lost in translation?
