Visual Signaling

Corps United States. Army. Signal

Sinopse

In "Visual Signaling," the United States Army Signal Corps presents a comprehensive examination of the methods and techniques employed for visual communication in military operations. This meticulous work emphasizes the importance of non-verbal cues, flags, and light signals, aiming to establish a standardized protocol during times of war. Written in an instructional and precise style, the text not only serves as a practical guide for military personnel but also situates itself within the broader historical context of military communications, where the clarity and effectiveness of signals can mean the difference between success and failure on the battlefield. The United States Army Signal Corps has a rich legacy in communication technology, evolving from its inception during the Civil War through two World Wars and beyond. The focus on visual signaling reflects a deep understanding of the strategic necessities of military operations, as well as the innovative spirit within the Corps to adapt to the challenges of warfare. The authors' collective experience and knowledge underline the significance of communication in achieving operational excellence. I highly recommend "Visual Signaling" to scholars, military historians, and anyone with a keen interest in the evolution of communication methods in military contexts. This book not only provides practical knowledge but also enriches our understanding of the critical role that effective signaling plays in strategic military operations.

A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety...

Sarah Jaquette Ray

Gen Z's first "existential toolkit" for combating eco-guilt and burnout while advocating for climate justice. 
 
 
 
A youth movement is reenergizing global environmental activism. The "climate generation"—late millennials and iGen, or Generation Z—is demanding that policy makers and government leaders take immediate action to address the dire outcomes predicted by climate science. Those inheriting our planet's environmental problems expect to encounter challenges, but they may not have the skills to grapple with the feelings of powerlessness and despair that may arise when they confront this seemingly intractable situation. 
 
 
  
Drawing on a decade of experience leading and teaching in college environmental studies programs, Sarah Jaquette Ray has created an "existential tool kit" for the climate generation. Combining insights from psychology, sociology, social movements, mindfulness, and the environmental humanities, Ray explains why and how we need to let go of eco-guilt, resist burnout, and cultivate resilience while advocating for climate justice. A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety is the essential guidebook for the climate generation—and perhaps the rest of us—as we confront the greatest environmental threat of our time.

Impossible? - Surprising...

Julian Havil

In Nonplussed!, popular-math writer Julian Havil delighted readers with a mind-boggling array of implausible yet true mathematical paradoxes. Now Havil is back with Impossible?, another marvelous medley of the utterly confusing, profound, and unbelievable—and all of it mathematically irrefutable.Whenever Forty-second Street in New York is temporarily closed, traffic doesn't gridlock but flows more smoothly—why is that? Or consider that cities that build new roads can experience dramatic increases in traffic congestion—how is this possible? What does the game show Let's Make A Deal reveal about the unexpected hazards of decision-making? What can the game of cricket teach us about the surprising behavior of the law of averages? These are some of the counterintuitive mathematical occurrences that readers encounter in Impossible?Havil ventures further than ever into territory where intuition can lead one astray. He gathers entertaining problems from probability and statistics along with an eclectic variety of conundrums and puzzlers from other areas of mathematics, including classics of abstract math like the Banach-Tarski paradox. These problems range in difficulty from easy to highly challenging, yet they can be tackled by anyone with a background in calculus. And the fascinating history and personalities associated with many of the problems are included with their mathematical proofs. Impossible? will delight anyone who wants to have their reason thoroughly confounded in the most astonishing and unpredictable ways.
