Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few aspects of American military history have been as vigorously debated as Harry Truman's decision to use atomic bombs against Japan. In this carefully crafted volume, Michael Kort describes the wartime circumstances and thinking that form the context for the decision to use these weapons, surveys the major debates related to that decision, and provides a comprehensive collection of key primary source documents that illuminate the behavior of the United States and Japan during the closing days of World War II. Kort opens with a summary of the debate over Hiroshima as it has evolved since 1945. He then provides a historical overview of thye events in question, beginning with the decision and program to build the atomic bomb. Detailing the sequence of events leading to Japan's surrender, he revisits the decisive battles of the Pacific War and the motivations of American and Japanese leaders. Finally, Kort examines ten key issues in the discussion of Hiroshima and guides readers to relevant primary source documents, scholarly books, and articles.

This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides a comprehensive route map for successful design contests with full guidance. The aim of the guide is to introduce new practices outlined below to the UK and open the market to this quality based appointment process further. The guide is for private and public authorities, and their architects and design teams – collating all valuable information into one easy to access document. Innovations outlined within the Project Compass Design Contest Guidance include: The guide clarifies the distinction between design contests and other forms of architectural competition, why open design contests are recommended, how parallel commissioning works, sortition selection (equal chance method of selection), wild card bidders, appointment of lot contracts by design contests, and appointment of framework contracts by design contest. The guidance charts recommended routes for private and public clients wishing to undertake a design contest It addresses how to mitigate the risk clients frequently perceive when young practitioners win design contests, by use of design contests with the negotiated procedure without prior publication The guide shows how public authorities can embed design contests in their procurement procedures, the benefits of this and why they should consider it Guidance is given on how to organise fully digital design contests Project Compass CIC will be developing further guidance in future for architecture and other construction industry tender procedures. As an independent agency Project Compass CIC’s role is vital in supporting those organisations which wish to adopt better practices, but don't know how.

Section 1 of the contract law of the State Department of Engineering, approved June 8, 1915, provides that "Whenever provision is made by law for the erection, construction, alteration, repair or improvement of any State structure, building, road, or other State improvement of any kind, excepting improvements on the property of the State on the waterfront of the City and County of San Francisco under the jurisdiction of the Board of State Harbor Commissioners, the total cost of which will exceed the sum of $1,000.00, the same shall be under the sole charge and direct control of the Department of Engineering.'' Section 11 of the Department of Engineering law, approved May 19, 1915, is in part as follows: "All architectural work of the Department shall be under the charge of the State Architect. When, however, it shall be deemed to be for the best interests of the State, the Board of Control, with the approval of the Governor, may require and arrange for public competition, and in all such Competitions the Board of Control with the approval of the Governor and with the advice of the State Architect, may prescribe the schedule of prizes, the total of which, exclusive of the fee of the winner, shall not exceed one per centum of the amount appropriated for any building. The fee of the successful Architect shall not exceed six per centum of the cost of said building.'' The Legislature of 1913 passed an act designated as Chapter No. 235, Statutes of 1913 and to be found on Pages 389, 390, 391, 392, 393 and 394 thereof, which act was approved by the Governor on June 5, 1913, and which provided for the issuance and sale of State bonds to create a fund for the construction, equipment and furnishing of State Buildings in the City of Sacramento, to be used by various officers, boards and commissions of the State, and which act provided for its submission to a vote of the people. This act of the Legislature was ratified by the people at the general election held in the month of November, A. D. 1914. Section 5 of this act is as follows: "Section 5. Any and all moneys derived from the sale of the bonds provided for in this act are hereby appropriated and shall be used exclusively for the following purpose, to wit: The constructing and equipping of State Buildings in the City of Sacramento, State of California, for the various officers, boards and commissions of the State, at a cost not to exceed the total sum of three million dollars, such portion of said sum of three million dollars to be used for furnishing and equipping of said State Buildings as may be determined by a board consisting of the Governor, the presiding justice of the Supreme Court, and the State Librarian, which board for such purpose is hereby created; provided, however, that no moneys provided for by this act shall be used for such purpose until a site suitable for such purpose, and acceptable to the State Board last above created, shall be donated or given to the State, the title thereto to be free and clear of all liens and encumbrances; the number of buildings and their location on the lands to be donated shall be determined by said board in this subdivision of this section mentioned; the plans and specifications for said buildings, and each of the same, shall be prepared under the direction and control of said board in this subdivision of this section provided for."
