This book was released on 2021-06-05 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes. As you read this summary, you will learn that espionage is an art that is practiced in different ways depending on the place and time, even if there are undeniable constants. You will also learn that : the American authorities knew that the Japanese were preparing to attack Pearl Harbor; the U.S. government had also been warned of the imminence of Al Qaeda's attacks in time before September 11th ; intoxication operations in the field of espionage are not new; the assassination of Sarajevo in 1914 was only made possible by a prior espionage mission; in its early days, the Soviet Union relied heavily on espionage to ensure its survival; fidel Castro's regime owed its salvation in 1961 to Soviet espionage. Why do we spy? Essentially, to gain and retain power, as well as to win armed conflicts. If espionage has certain constants, invariable in time and place, this discipline is no stranger to change. The same is true of the techniques used, which differ from one time and place to another, but which, overall, are only marginally modified. Brian Stewart, a high-flying British spy who served for a long time in Asia, discusses all aspects of espionage in full knowledge of the facts, bringing us into a world from which laymen are mostly excluded. *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!

Book excerpt: Leggendo questo riassunto, imparerete che lo spionaggio è un'arte che viene praticata in modi diversi a seconda del luogo e del tempo, anche se ci sono delle costanti innegabili. Imparerete anche che : le autorità americane sapevano che i giapponesi si stavano preparando ad attaccare Pearl Harbor; il governo degli Stati Uniti era stato avvertito dell'imminenza degli attacchi di Al Qaeda in tempo utile prima dell'11 settembre; le operazioni di intossicazione nel campo dello spionaggio non sono nuove; l'assassinio di Sarajevo nel 1914 fu reso possibile solo da una precedente missione di spionaggio; ai suoi inizi, l'Unione Sovietica si è basata molto sullo spionaggio per garantire la propria sopravvivenza; il regime di Fidel Castro deve la sua salvezza nel 1961 allo spionaggio sovietico. Perché spiamo? Essenzialmente per conquistare e mantenere il potere, oltre che per vincere i conflitti armati. Se lo spionaggio ha alcune costanti, invariabili nel tempo e nel luogo, questa disciplina non è estranea ai cambiamenti. Lo stesso vale per le tecniche utilizzate, che differiscono da un tempo e da un luogo all'altro, ma che, nel complesso, vengono modificate solo marginalmente. Brian Stewart, una spia britannica di alto livello che ha servito a lungo in Asia, tratta con cognizione di causa tutti gli aspetti dello spionaggio, facendoci entrare in un mondo da cui i non addetti ai lavori sono per lo più esclusi.

This book was released on with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bei der Lektüre dieser Zusammenfassung werden Sie erfahren, dass Spionage eine Kunst ist, die je nach Ort und Zeit auf unterschiedliche Weise praktiziert wird, auch wenn es unbestreitbare Konstanten gibt. Sie werden auch erfahren, dass : die amerikanischen Behörden wussten, dass die Japaner einen Angriff auf Pearl Harbor vorbereiteten; die US-Regierung rechtzeitig vor dem 11. September vor den bevorstehenden Anschlägen von Al Qaida gewarnt wurde; Rauschgiftoperationen im Bereich der Spionage sind nicht neu; das Attentat von Sarajewo im Jahr 1914 wurde nur durch einen vorangegangenen Spionageeinsatz möglich; die Sowjetunion stützte sich in ihren Anfängen stark auf Spionage, um ihr Überleben zu sichern; das Regime von Fidel Castro verdankte seine Rettung im Jahr 1961 der sowjetischen Spionage. Warum spionieren wir? Im Wesentlichen, um Macht zu erlangen und zu erhalten sowie um bewaffnete Konflikte zu gewinnen. Auch wenn es bei der Spionage gewisse Konstanten gibt, die zeitlich und örtlich unveränderlich sind, so ist diese Disziplin dem Wandel nicht fremd. Das Gleiche gilt für die verwendeten Techniken, die sich zwar von Zeit zu Zeit und von Ort zu Ort unterscheiden, aber insgesamt nur geringfügig verändert werden. Brian Stewart, ein hochrangiger britischer Spion, der lange Zeit in Asien tätig war, erörtert alle Aspekte der Spionage in voller Kenntnis der Sachlage und führt uns in eine Welt, von der Laien meist ausgeschlossen sind.

Book excerpt: Als je deze samenvatting leest, leer je dat spionage een kunst is die op verschillende manieren wordt beoefend, afhankelijk van plaats en tijd, ook al zijn er onmiskenbare constanten. Je zult ook leren dat : de Amerikaanse autoriteiten wisten dat de Japanners zich voorbereidden om Pearl Harbor aan te vallen; de Amerikaanse regering ook tijdig voor 11 september was gewaarschuwd voor de op handen zijnde aanvallen van Al Qaeda; roesoperaties op het gebied van spionage zijn niet nieuw; de moord op Sarajevo in 1914 was alleen mogelijk door een voorafgaande spionagemissie; in haar begindagen vertrouwde de Sovjet-Unie zwaar op spionage om te kunnen overleven; Het regime van Fidel Castro dankte zijn redding in 1961 aan spionage van de Sovjet-Unie. Waarom spioneren we? In wezen om macht te winnen en te behouden en om gewapende conflicten te winnen. Als spionage bepaalde constanten heeft, die onveranderlijk zijn in tijd en plaats, dan is deze discipline niet vreemd aan verandering. Hetzelfde geldt voor de gebruikte technieken, die van tijd tot tijd en van plaats tot plaats verschillen, maar over het algemeen slechts marginaal worden aangepast. Brian Stewart, een hoogvliegende Britse spion die lange tijd in Azië heeft gediend, bespreekt alle aspecten van spionage met kennis van zaken en brengt ons in een wereld waarvan leken meestal zijn uitgesloten.

Download or read book The Social Life of Coffee written by Brian Cowan and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What induced the British to adopt foreign coffee-drinking customs in the seventeenth century? Why did an entirely new social institution, the coffeehouse, emerge as the primary place for consumption of this new drink? In this lively book, Brian Cowan locates the answers to these questions in the particularly British combination of curiosity, commerce, and civil society. Cowan provides the definitive account of the origins of coffee drinking and coffeehouse society, and in so doing he reshapes our understanding of the commercial and consumer revolutions in Britain during the long Stuart century. Britain’s virtuosi, gentlemanly patrons of the arts and sciences, were profoundly interested in things strange and exotic. Cowan explores how such virtuosi spurred initial consumer interest in coffee and invented the social template for the first coffeehouses. As the coffeehouse evolved, rising to take a central role in British commercial and civil society, the virtuosi were also transformed by their own invention.
Download or read book The War of Words written by Harold James and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely call for recovering the true meanings of the nineteenth-century terms that are hobbling current political debates "Masterful. . . . James cuts through the tangled terminological and conceptual jungle of modern globalist discourse . . . [with] fascinating discussions of the origins and meanings of the words."--G. John Ikenberry, Foreign Affairs "James delves into the often-surprising intellectual origins of key concepts in the arguments about globalisation--and illuminates the debate in the process."--Gideon Rachman, Financial Times, "Best Books of 2021: Politics" Nationalism, conservatism, liberalism, socialism, and capitalism are among the most fiercely debated ideas in contemporary politics. Since these concepts hark back to the nineteenth century, much of their nuanced meaning has been lost, and the words are most often used as epithets that short-circuit productive discussion. In this insightful book, Harold James uncovers the origins of these concepts and examines how the problematic definition and meaning of each term has become an obstacle to respectful communication. Noting that similar linguistic misunderstandings accompany such newer ideas as geopolitics, neoliberalism, technocracy, and globalism, James argues that a rich historical knowledge of the vocabulary surrounding globalization, politics, and economics--particularly the meaning and the usefulness that drove the original conceptions of the terms--is needed to negotiate the gaps between different understandings and make fruitful political debate once again possible.

Download or read book Risk written by Stanley McChrystal and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of Team of Teams and My Share of the Task, an entirely new way to understand risk and master the unknown. Retired four-star general Stan McChrystal has lived a life associated with the deadly risks of combat. From his first day at West Point, to his years in Afghanistan, to his efforts helping business leaders navigate a global pandemic, McChrystal has seen how individuals and organizations fail to mitigate risk. Why? Because they focus on the probability of something happening instead of the interface by which it can be managed. In this new book, General McChrystal offers a battle-tested system for detecting and responding to risk. Instead of defining risk as a force to predict, McChrystal and coauthor Anna Butrico show that there are in fact ten dimensions of control we can adjust at any given time. By closely monitoring these controls, we can maintain a healthy Risk Immune System that allows us to effectively anticipate, identify, analyze, and act upon the ever-present possibility that things will not go as planned. Drawing on examples ranging from military history to the business world, and offering practical exercises to improve preparedness, McChrystal illustrates how these ten factors are always in effect, and how by considering them, individuals and organizations can exert mastery over every conceivable sort of risk that they might face. We may not be able to see the future, but with McChrystal’s hard-won guidance, we can improve our resistance and build a strong defense against what we know—and what we don't.
