At the beginning of the 20th century Morris dancing had all but died out in much of England. It was militant suffragettes and slum girls who kick-started the revival that returned the forgotten dances of the countryside to towns and villages across the nation. As a result of their commitment to preserve and pass on the dances, the Morris survived as a living tradition that is still performed to this day. And the impetus to do so came from the women’s aspiration to change society for the better, the same impetus that drove them to militant action and to prison.The Morris revival and the militant suffrage movement were inextricably linked. The leader of the dance revival, Mary Neal, was a life-long radical campaigner for the rights of women and children. With her friend Emmeline Pethick she ran the Esperance Girls’ Club in one of London’s most deprived areas. She and Emmeline both sat on the national committee of Mrs Pankhurst’s militant Women’s Social and Political Union, the most notorious of the groups campaigning for the vote for women.The women’s embrace of traditional dance was rooted in Mary’s aspirations for equality and her commitment to social and political reform.

Táto kontroverzná kniha nielen prekvapí, ale aj zaujme svojich slovenských čitateľov. Nie často sa totiž pacient užívajúci lieky s plnou dôverou k najlepším úmyslom a profesionalite svojho lekára dozvedá, že lieky môžu nielen pomáhať a liečiť, ale aj zabíjať. Autor presvedčivo argumentuje a dokazuje, že veľké farmaceutické firmy sa často správajú nezodpovedne až trestuhodne, vedome dodávajú na trh lieky, o ktorých účinnosti nie sú presvedčené a o ktorých škodlivosti dokonca vedia, ale zatajujú to. Prevažná väčšina lekárov vôbec netuší o negatívnych vlastnostiach liekov, ktoré im ich predajcovia odporúčajú či nanucujú, hoci určité percento - požívajúce finančné výhody alebo iné lukratívne ponuky vrátane zahraničných zájazdov a preplácania nákladov na rozličné konferencie (zväčša usporadúvané farmaceutickými firmami) to prinajmenšom tušiť musí. Ak si knihu prečítajú praktickí lekári, ktorí sú v primárnom priamom kontakte s pacientmi, určite si uvedomia, že odporúčania distribútorov liekov, ako aj obsah príbalových letákov, treba brať s určitou rezervou. Aj v agentúrach kontrolujúcich a schvaľujúcich lieky pracujú iba ľudia, z ktorých niektorí sú pod priamym vplyvom farmaceutických firiem, či dokonca vlastnia ich akcie. O tom všetkom sa však najlepšie presvedčí sám čitateľ, ak sa zahĺbi do obsahu knihy a vydrží ju čítať aj napriek množstvu negatívnych emócií, ktoré sa ho ... Unknown localization key: "more"

"Of course, everything [D''Souza] says here is accurate... But it''s not going to sit well with people on the American left who, of course, are portraying themselves as the exact opposite of all of this." —RUSH LIMBAUGHThe explosive new book from Dinesh D''Souza, author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Hillary''s America, America, and Obama''s America. What is "the big lie" of the Democratic Party? That conservatives—and President Donald Trump in particular—are fascists. Nazis, even. In a typical comment, MSNBC host Rachel Maddow says the Trump era is reminiscent of "what it was like when Hitler first became chancellor." But in fact, this audacious lie is a complete inversion of the truth. Yes, there is a fascist threat in America—but that threat is from the Left and the Democratic Party. The Democratic left has an ideology virtually identical with fascism and routinely borrows tactics of intimidation and political terror from the Nazi Brownshirts. To cover up their insidious fascist agenda, Democrats loudly accuse President Trump and other Republicans of being Nazis—an obvious lie, considering the GOP has been fighting the Democrats over slavery, genocide, racism and fascism from the beginning. Now, finally, Dinesh D''Souza explodes the Left''s big lie. ... Unknown localization key: "more"
