...But If a Zombie Apocalypse Did Occur by Amy L. Thompson,Antonio S. Thompson Pdf

Part pop culture trope, part hypothetical cataclysm, the zombie apocalypse is rooted in modern literature, film and mythology. This collection of new essays considers the implications of this scientifically impossible (but perhaps imminent) event, examining real-world responses to pandemic contagion and civic chaos, as well as those from Hollywood and popular culture. The contributors discuss the zombie apocalypse as a metaphor for actual catastrophes and estimate the probabilities of human survival and behavior during an undead invasion.

Metaphors of Coronavirus by Jonathan Charteris-Black Pdf

This book explores the metaphors used in public and media communication to ask how language shapes our moral reasoning about the global coronavirus crisis. The author offers insights into the metaphors, metonyms, allegories and symbols of the global crisis and examines how they have contributed to policy formation and communication. Combining metaphor theory with moral foundations theory, he places metaphors in their historical contexts, and then critically questions why certain tropes might be used in particular situations to persuade and convince an audience. The book takes an integrated approach, involving ideas from cognitive linguistics, history, social psychology and literature to produce a multi-layered and thematically rich interpretation of the language of the pandemic and its social and political consequences. It will be relevant to readers with a background in these areas, as well as anyone with a general interest in the language used to make sense of this global event.

Zombie Apocalypse by Macenzie Guiver Pdf

Zombies are everywhere today and to most people they are something out of scary stories like vampires or werewolves, no more real than Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny. But are we dismissing these blood-thirsty monsters at our peril? According to several scientists who have taken on the task of proving or disproving the possibility of zombies, while it is possible that some previously unknown disease could cause symptoms similar to those associated with pop-culture zombies (a mutated disease similar to rabies perhaps), it is also unlikely. But the actual disaster behind a zombie apocalypse, a deadly global pandemic, is not only possible, it is highly probable. In “Zombie Apocalypse: The Prepper's Guide to Pandemic Outbreak, Quarantine, and Zombie Fallout” #1 Best Selling author Macenzie Guiver shows you how it's happened many times before and why it is likely to happen again during our lifetime. Whether the threat comes from a zombie disease or some errant strain of influenza, the threat of pandemic is real and it is something that every family must be prepared to handle in order to survive. When the 1918 Spanish Flu swept around the globe, entire families and neighborhoods were wiped out. Nearly 30% of the population of the planet were infected as many as 5.5% of the world's inhabitants died as a result (That's more than 1 in every 20 people dead – planet-wide). When the next pandemic comes, the only way to ensure the safety and survival of your family is to prepare now. “Zombie Apocalypse” will help you: • Understand how pandemics happen, and why we're likely to have another one in your lifetime • Learn important lessons from past pandemics, and how some of the ones in the recent past make a Zombie outbreak look like child's play • Know what to expect in the days and weeks following a major outbreak, there's more than just the usual “prepper” stuff to worry about here • Determine what to do now to be ready, whether it's Zombies, or an uber-deadly new strain of the flu virus there are some common steps to take for this type of “end of the world as we know it” scenario • Create a pandemic preparedness plan for your family and practice it. Using the Zombie angle to create your practice scenarios can add a bit of fun to an otherwise difficult and hard-to-wrap-your-head-around prepping topic From providing an understanding of how pandemics progress from Patient Zero to global catastrophe to explaining how a global pandemic will affect the society around us, this guide provides prepping families with the perspective, information, and planning steps they need to be ready to survive the next pandemic, even if that means fighting off zombies in order to do so!

Parenting in the Zombie Apocalypse by Steven J. Kirsh Pdf

Parenting is difficult under the best of circumstances--but extremely daunting when humanity faces cataclysmic annihilation. When the dead rise, hardship, violence and the ever-present threat of flesh-eating zombies will adversely affect parents and children alike. Depending on their age, children will have little chance of surviving a single encounter with the undead, let alone the unending peril of the Zombie Apocalypse. The key to their survival--and thus the survival of the species--will be the caregiving they receive. Drawing on psychological theory and real-world research on developmental status, grief, trauma, mental illness, and child-rearing in stressful environments, this book critically examines factors influencing parenting, and the likely outcomes of different caregiving techniques in the hypothetical landscape of the living dead.

An Ethical Guidebook to the Zombie Apocalypse by Bryan Hall Pdf

When your base camp is overrun by zombies, whom do you save if you cannot save everyone? Is it permissible to sacrifice one survivor to an undead horde in order to save a greater number of the living? Do you have obligations to loved ones who have turned? These are some of the troubling ethical questions you might face in a zombie apocalypse. Bryan Hall uses situations like these to creatively introduce the foundational theories of moral philosophy. Covering major thinkers such as Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, and John Stuart Mill, this is an introduction to Ethics like no other: a practical guidebook for surviving a zombie outbreak with your humanity intact. It shows you why moral reasoning matters as long as you still walk among the living. The book is written entirely from the perspective of someone struggling to survive in a world overrun by the undead. Each chapter begins with graphic art and a “field exercise” that uses a story from this world to illustrate an ethical problem. By considering moral controversies through the unfamiliar context of a zombie apocalypse, the morally irrelevant factors that get in the way of resolving these controversies are removed and you can better answer questions such as: · Do we have a moral obligation to help those less fortunate than ourselves? · Is it ever morally permissible to intentionally kill an innocent person? · Are non-rational but sentient beings morally considerable? Equipped with further reading sections and overviews of the theories that you would usually cover in an introductory Ethics course, this one-of-a-kind primer critically evaluates different procedures for moral action that you can use not only to survive but flourish in an undead world.

Human Extinction and the Pandemic Imaginary by Christos Lynteris Pdf

This book develops an examination and critique of human extinction as a result of the ‘next pandemic’ and turns attention towards the role of pandemic catastrophe in the renegotiation of what it means to be human. Nested in debates in anthropology, philosophy, social theory and global health, the book argues that fear of and fascination with the ‘next pandemic’ stem not so much from an anticipation of a biological extinction of the human species, as from an expectation of the loss of mastery over human/non-humanl relations. Christos Lynteris employs the notion of the ‘pandemic imaginary’ in order to understand the way in which pandemic-borne human extinction refashions our understanding of humanity and its place in the world. The book challenges us to think how cosmological, aesthetic, ontological and political aspects of pandemic catastrophe are intertwined. The chapters examine the vital entanglement of epidemiological studies, popular culture, modes of scientific visualisation, and pandemic preparedness campaigns. This volume will be relevant for scholars and advanced students of anthropology as well as global health, and for many others interested in catastrophe, the ‘end of the world’ and the (post)apocalyptic.

Those God-forsaken 9-to-5 jobs, the bills, the corporate empires, politicians bickering over stupid crap, all those laws on the books and everything that meant anything were swept aside.

When those things came back to life, the governments said they were going to eradicate the undead, the zombies, zekes, ferals, walkers or whatever those damned things are being called these days, but instead the governments the world over just collapsed.
