Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Passing of War: A Study in Things That Make for Peace It has been recently urged with force and skill that Economic considerations alone are conclusive against War. Current affairs in Europe have also been pointing the same moral. Only a few months ago Germany afforded an object-lesson to the world upon the cost of indulgence in aggressive feeling, with consequent rumour of War. We could see how acute commercial crisis, in a country living on credit, can be produced by a few weeks' hostile handling by a single neighbour of the long lever of Finance. Now that the warp and woof of banking and trade are closely interwoven in one vast international web, so striking a situation is produced even by War's forecast shadow, that it seems scarcely a vain question whether the subjugation of one nation to the will of another, especially if that other has wealthy allies, might not be bloodlessly effected by financial pressure alone if it were organised and combined. There exists, moreover, another power, not of Capital but of Labour, which in combination has undeniable potentialities. To realise the vision foreseen by De Bloch nearly twenty years ago has long been a favourite notion with Socialists. It was revived last summer at the Jena Congress, where an orator observed: "We shall not need to declare the General Strike.

Beautiful,' Atul Gawande, bestselling author of Being Mortal What makes life worth living in the face of death? At the age of thirty-six, on the verge of completing a decade's training as a neurosurgeon, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, the next he was a patient struggling to live.

Paul Kalanithi died while working on this profoundly moving book, yet his words live on as a guide to us all. When Breath Becomes Air is a life-affirming reflection on facing our mortality and on the relationship between doctor and patient, from a gifted writer who became both. 'A vital book about dying. Awe-inspiring and exquisite. Obligatory reading for the living' Nigella Lawson

Download or read book Death or Deliverance written by Teresa Iacobelli and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2013-08-27 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soldiers found guilty of desertion or cowardice during the Great War faced death by firing squad. Novels, histories, movies, and television series often depict courts martial as brutal and inflexible, and social memories of this system of frontline justice have inspired modern movements to seek pardons for soldiers executed on the battlefield. In this revealing look at military law in the Canadian Expeditionary Force, Teresa Iacobelli brings to light not only the trials of 25 Canadian soldiers who were executed but also the untold cases of 197 men sentenced to death but spared. Looking beyond stories of callous generals and quick executions, Iacobelli reveals a disciplinary system capable of thoughtful review and compassion for the individual soldier. Published to coincide with the centennial anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War, Death or Deliverance reconsiders an important and unexamined chapter in the history of both a war and a nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. The fact that the outcome of the 2006 Hezbollah-Israeli War was, at best, a stalemate for Israel has confounded military analysts. Long considered the most professional and powerful army in the Middle East, with a history of impressive military victories against its enemies, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) emerged from the campaign with its enemies undefeated and its prestige tarnished. This historical analysis of the war includes an examination of IDF and Hezbollah doctrine prior to the war, as well as an overview of the operational and tactical problems encountered by the IDF during the war. The IDF ground forces were tactically unprepared and untrained to fight against a determined Hezbollah force. ¿An insightful, comprehensive examination of the war.¿ Illustrations.
