    Fight for the Final Frontier uses the concepts associated with irregular warfare to offer new insights for understanding the nature of strategic competition in space. Today's most pressing security concerns are best considered using an irregular warfare lens because incidents and points of potential conflict fall outside the definition of armed conflict. While some universal rules of combat apply across all domains, conflict in space up-ends those assumed standards of understanding. 
     
     
      
    John Klein provides a solution to reckoning with the many malicious, nefarious, and irresponsible behaviors in the space domain by using the irregular warfare framework. This offers a new paradigm through which one can view and study conflict involving state and non-state actors. A "war" in space will be utterly unlike any that have happened on Earth, though scholars can provide lessons from past conflict to understand the flashpoints in the heavens. 
     
     
      
    Fight for the Final Frontier makes the case that irregular warfare in the space domain is shaped by the fundamental nature of all warfare, along with universal principles of strategy and the essential unity of all strategic experience. Klein outlines the new arenas for battle, new areas of conflict and competition, and the necessary concepts for operating in this bold new frontier.

  • A Maritime History of Scotland 1650-1790 - cover

    A Maritime History of Scotland...

    The period 1650 to 1790 was such a turbulent one for Scottish seafarers that much of this fast-flowing narrative reads like Treasure Island. Colourful characters abound in a story teeming with incident and excitement: John Paul Jones descends upon the Scottish coast creating widespread panic; press gangs prowl the coastal towns; wartime conditions turn merchantmen into privateers fighting the French, the Spanish and the American Colonists – almost anyone flying a different flag; quaintly named vessels like The Provoked Cheesemaker are on the lookout for trouble. And the stakes were high. Glasgow became wealthy through the tobacco trade. Glasgow merchantmen could beat the English ships and sail to Chesapeake Bay in record time.
    Eric Graham traces the development of the Scottish marine and its institutions during a formative period, when state intervention and warfare at sea in the pursuit of merchantilist goals largely determined the course of events. He charts Scotland's frustrated attempts to join England in the Atlantic economy and so secure her prosperity – an often bitter relationship that culminated in the Darien Disaster. In the years that followed, maritime affairs were central to the move to embrace the full incorporating Act of 1707. After 1707, Scottish maritime aspirations flourished under the protection of the British Navigation Acts and the windfalls of the endemic warfare at sea.

    Earl Shoaff (March 21, 1916 - September 6, 1965) was a motivational speaker and entrepreneur. Shoaff was very influential in the early life of inspirational speaker Jim Rohn. At the age of 25, Rohn heard a "laws of success" lecture given by Shoaff and went to work for him. Rohn’s later work helped launch or further the career of many others in the personal development industry, including Tony Robbins, Mark Victor Hansen, Brian Tracy, and Jack Canfield. This recording is from a public lecture that Shoaff gave in the early 1950’s, and it is called “How To Become A Millionaire.”

    We broke our new series on learning French down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise French.  
    In Unit 1 you will hear French decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
    Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native French speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand French. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in French at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken French, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
    In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.
