Download or read book Time Patrol written by Poul Anderson and published by Baen. This book was released on 2006-02-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget minor hazards like nuclear bombs. The discovery of time travel means that everything we know, anyone we know, might not only vanish, but never even have existed. Against that possibility stand the men and women of the Time Patrol, dedicated to preserving the history they know and protecting the future from fanatics, terrorists, and would-be dictators who would remold the shape of reality to suit their own purposes. But Manse Everard, the Patrol's finest temporal trouble-shooter, bears a heavy burden. The fabric of history is stained with human blood and suffering which he cannot, must not do anything to alleviate, lest his tampering bring disastrous alterations in future time. Everard must leave the horrors of the past in place, lest his tampering-or that of the Patrol's opponents, the Exaltationists-erase all hope of a better future, and instead bring about a future filled with greater horrors than any recorded by past history at its darkest and most foul.

Download or read book The Time Machine Hypothesis written by Damien Broderick and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every age has characteristic inventions that change the world. In the 19th century it was the steam engine and the train. For the 20th, electric and gasoline power, aircraft, nuclear weapons, even ventures into space. Today, the planet is awash with electronic business, chatter and virtual-reality entertainment so brilliant that the division between real and simulated is hard to discern. But one new idea from the 19th century has failed, so far, to enter reality—time travel, using machines to turn the time dimension into a two-way highway. Will it come true, as foreseen in science fiction? Might we expect visits to and from the future, sooner than from space? That is the Time Machine Hypothesis, examined here by futurist Damien Broderick, an award-winning writer and theorist of the genre of the future. Broderick homes in on the topic through the lens of science as well as fiction, exploring some fifty different time-travel scenarios and conundrums found in the science fiction literature and film.

Download or read book Traditional Preventive Patrol written by University City Science Center and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synopsis of the findings of a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art in traditional preventive patrol operational activities of uniformed officers assigned to general patrol duties. The five principal and most commonly accepted goals of patrol -- deterrence, apprehension, provision of non-crime related services, provision of a sense of community security and satisfaction with the police, and recovery of stolen goods -- are identified, and each is examined in terms of the hypotheses and assumptions which link specific patrol activities, tactics, and strategies to goal attainment. Attention is devoted to determining the validity of these hypotheses and assumptions and to the type and quality of the measures of effectiveness which are used to gauge the contribution of various patrol practices to the overall aims of patrol. The report then considers the inputs and processes which comprise preventive patrol: characteristics of patrol personnel, modes of transportation, deployment practices, supervision, and in-service task assignments. Prescriptive statements based on this assessment of the current state of knowledge about patrol conclude this report. The final chapter discusses aspects of patrol most in need of further study and offers some suggestions and lessons concerning the execution of research on patrol. The information and conclusions presented in this report were developed from a review of available literature, reports of projects supported by LEAA and the police foundation, direct contact with all LEAA regional offices, discussions with state planning agency representatives, a survey of some 300 police and sheriffs' departments throughout the country, and 26 site visits.
Download or read book U S Navy Patrol Vessels written by Ken W. Sayers and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past century, U.S. Navy patrol vessels have operated everywhere larger warships have--as well as in places where the big boats could not operate. These bantam warriors have performed in a variety of roles, from antisubmarine warfare to convoy escort and offensive operations against enemy forces afloat and ashore. Patrol vessels battled German units in the Mediterranean, fought insurgents along rivers and canals in China and Vietnam and protected U.S. ships and facilities in the Persian Gulf. Covering more than 1000 of the Navy's small combatants, this comprehensive survey provides all-time rosters, histories, specifications and illustrations of patrol vessels from before World War I to the present. World War II PT boats and submarine chasers and Vietnam War swift boats are covered, along with less well known ships such as Eagle boats, patrol yachts, hydrofoil gunboats and control escorts. A detailed accounting of patrol vessel exports, transfers and shipbuilders is included.
