Synopsis

Armor Facts presents a comprehensive journey through the evolution of personal protection in combat, from ancient shields to modern body armor. It explores how armor development has shaped warfare, military technology, and societies across centuries. Intriguingly, armor has not only served as a defensive tool but also as a catalyst, driving innovation in weaponry and tactics. The book uniquely examines armor as a dynamic response to the changing realities of conflict, highlighting recurring patterns of innovation and adaptation that readers may find surprising.

 
The book's approach is structured, beginning with early armor forms in ancient civilizations. It progresses through the medieval period, focusing on plate armor's rise and its impact on knightly warfare, before analyzing the effect of gunpowder weapons and the shift to specialized armor in the early modern era. Finally, it delves into the 20th and 21st centuries, examining advancements in materials science and their impact on modern body armor.

 
Armor production has always been a costly endeavor, influencing military budgets and trade networks, and the book explores these economic factors.

    Capitalism and Crises - How to...

    The world is encountering multiple crises—climate, droughts, floods, energy, food, and pandemics, to name a few. We have a problem, this is the solution. 
     
     
     
    Capitalism and Crises is about how capitalism can fix them—how it can solve not cause them. The reason why it has caused them is that we have misconceived the nature of our capitalist system. We have failed to understand the key institution at the heart of it—business—and as a result we have allowed it to cause as well as solve problems. This book describes why this has happened and what needs to change to address it. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on history, philosophy, psychology, and biology as well economics, law, and finance, Mayer describes what has gone wrong, what needs to change, and how to fix it. He sets out the big challenges that capitalism must address and how it should set about doing that, and discusses how financial institutions should be at the heart of this, and how the public sector can work with the private on a common purpose of solving problems and creating shared prosperity. Capitalism and Crises provides an inspiring and motivational roadmap of how we as practitioners, policymakers, consumers, employees, communities, students, and citizens of the world can together tackle the challenges of the twenty-first century—to flourish and survive.
