Download or read book Improvised Explosive Devices written by James Revill and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book begins with an account of the evolution of improvised explosive devices using a number of micro case studies to explore how and why actors have initiated IED campaigns; how new and old technologies and expertise have been exploited and how ethical barriers to IED development and deployment have been dealt with. It proceeds to bring the evidence from the case studies together to identify themes and trends in IED development, before looking at what can realistically be done to mitigate the threat of IEDs in the new wars of the twenty first century. The book suggests that the advance and availability of a combination of technological factors, in conjunction with changes in the nature of contemporary conflicts, have led to the emergence of IEDs as the paradigmatic weapons of new wars. However their prevalence in contemporary and future conflicts is not inevitable, but rather depends on the willingness of multiple sets of actors at different levels to build a web of preventative measures to mitigate – if not eradicate – IED development and deployment.

Download or read book Lone Star and Double Eagle written by Minetta Altgelt Goyne and published by TCU Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[This book] concentrates upon a strongly bonded family during a period of separation that is necessarily preserved in much greater detail than their happier moments spent in one another's company. Being based to a large extent on letters that surely were never intended for the eyes of anyone outside the family and an intimate circle of friends, it also gives a more spontaneous view than most journals offer. These letters, preserved for more than eleven decades, are the record of years during which the Ernst Coreth family began really to enter into the affairs of its new homeland. No wish to magnify the importance of these people, no intent to dramatize their fate motivated the accompanying study, for much of what the Coreths experienced other immigrants experienced also"--Preface.

Download or read book Emma and Claude Debussy written by Gillian Opstad and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2022 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emma Bardac and her relationship with Claude Debussy take centre stage in this insightful exploration of their lives together. The singer Emma Bardac (1862-1934) has often been presented as a woman who ensnared Claude Debussy (1862-1918) because she wanted to be associated with his fame and to live a life of luxury. Indeed, in many biographies and composer-related studies of Debussy, the only mentions that she receives are brief and derogatory. Here Emma Bardac and her relationship with the composer take centre stage. The book traces Emma's Jewish ancestry and her background, the significant role of her wealthy uncle Osiris, her marriage at seventeen to the wealthy Jewish banker Sigismond Bardac, her affair with Gabriel Fauré and her liaison with and subsequent marriage to Debussy. As Gillian Opstad shows, the pressure and stifling effects of domestic life on Debussy's attitude to his composing were considerable. The financial consequences of their partnership were disastrous, and their circle of close friends was small. Emma suffered physically and mentally from the tensions of the marriage, particularly money worries, and the possibility that Debussy was attracted to her older daughter. She considered divorce but supported him through his deepest depression and during the First World War until he succumbed to cancer in 1918. After Debussy's death, Emma felt driven both on his behalf and for financial reasons to further performances of the composer's works and provoked the annoyance of other musicians by having early compositions resurrected, completed and performed. In this engagingly written biography, Gillian Opstad brings to light little-known facts about Emma's background and family, advances new insights into her relationship with Debussy, and provides a glimpse of an early twentieth-century Parisian milieu that experienced wide-spread antisemitism.

Download or read book The Daisy Chain written by Juli Flintoff and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-06-21 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The psychological onslaught of torment enveloped her in a veil of darkness as the same mind-bending scenes play on a relentless loop every time she closes her eyes. The secrets Cassandra Matthews has been forced to keep are suffocating the very life blood out of her, leaving her utterly incapacitated. Alone with her despair, lost in the bleakness of helplessness, and invisible to those around her, she is unable to function effectively. Exasperated at feeling like a pinball being propelled back and forth, desperate for someone to listen, she threatens to confess all that she knows just to quieten the demons within. Like a starter pistol commencing a race, Cassandra Matthews’ warnings shift the gears into place, igniting a ‘survival of the fittest’ mode and stimulating her assailant’s drastic actions. They may think they have covered their tracks, but a face at the window holds the truth and will stop at nothing to ensure they pay, tenfold. The sins of the guilty may quieten their ears and allow them to sleep in blissful ignorance, but the puppet master is biding his time, planning his retribution. Through the unpredictable and intricate web woven from their deceit, he will cast his net to inflict upon them a destructive path of human suffering they never knew existed. The stranger in the shadows will decide upon the time, the place, and the punishment; then, there will be no mercy.

Download or read book Comrade Pavlik written by Catriona Kelly and published by Granta Books. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was September, 1932. Gerasimovka, Western Siberia. Two children are found dead in the forest outside a remote village. Both have been repeatedly stabbed and their bloody bodies are covered in sticky, crimson cranberry juice. Who committed these horrific murders has never been proved, but the elder boy, thirteen-year-old Pavlik Morozov, was quickly to become the most famous boy in Soviet history - statues of him were erected, biographies published, and children across the country were exhorted to emulate him. Catriona Kelly's aim is not to find out who really killed the boys, but rather to explore how Stalin's regime turned Pavlik into a hero designed to produce good Soviet citizens. Pavlik's story is intriguing and multi-layered: did he denounce his own father to the authorities? Was he murdered by members of his own family? Did he ever belong to the Pioneers, the Communist youth organization who claimed him as member No. 001? This is the first book in English on Pavlik's legend, using previously inaccessible local archives.
