Beyond the Horizon - How...

Davis Truman

Beyond the Horizon: How Intelligence Limits Led to the Pearl Harbor Failure offers a compelling analysis of one of history's most infamous intelligence failures — the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. Drawing on historical evidence and cognitive science, this thesis explores the systemic issues in U.S. intelligence operations leading up to the attack, including shortcomings in collection, analysis, and management. 
These failures were not solely the result of institutional flaws but were deeply rooted in human decision-making's inherent cognitive and behavioral limitations. The book highlights how intelligence professionals can learn from the past to anticipate and mitigate future threats by uncovering these constraints. 
Packed with insightful lessons and actionable recommendations, Beyond the Horizon is a vital resource for intelligence officers, policymakers, and historians. It emphasizes the importance of adapting to human limitations to protect against potential surprises.

DESCRIPTION:
My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN
- Understand grammar concepts
- Learn how to use different vocabulary concepts taught through language-in-use

The Fate of Man

H. G. Wells

In the design of this book three primary themes interlace and pursue and develop each other.There is first, that invention and science have completely altered the material environment ofhuman life. Next, that the disruptive driving force of an excess of bored and unemployed young men., which must in some manner find relief, will probably shatter human life altogether under the new conditions. And thirdly, that the existing mental organisation of our species is entirely insufficient to control the present situation, which nevertheless might, with an adequate effort, be controlled. 
Every community can be shown to be either sending out the plethora of its population as emigrants and settlers, or reducing it by warfare, or else suffering from acute social trouble, such social trouble as the words Russian Hooligans, Chinese Boxers, Moonlighters, Nazis, Fascists, revolutionary terrorists, gangsters, will call to mind. The young man surplus, if it is not consumed, is the main source of rebels, revolutionaries and disturbances of all kinds. Somehow that tension must find relief. The comparative social stability of the nineteenth century was largely due to emigration and the settlement of new lands.

Champagne Charlie - The...

Petie Kladstrup, Don Kladstrup

Champagne Charlie tells the story of a dashing young Frenchman, Charles Heidsieck, who introduced hard-drinking Americans to champagne in the mid-nineteenth century and became famously known as Champagne Charlie. Ignoring critics who warned that America was a dangerous place to do business, Heidsieck plunged right in, considering it "the land of opportunity" and succeeding there beyond his wildest dreams. Those dreams, however, became a nightmare when the Civil War erupted and he was imprisoned and nearly executed after being charged with spying for the Confederacy. 
 
 
 
Only after the Lincoln administration intervened was Heidsieck saved, but his champagne business had gone bankrupt and was virtually dead. Then, miraculously, Heidsieck became owner of nearly half the city of Denver, the fastest-growing city in the West. By selling the land, Heidsieck was eventually able to resurrect his business to its former glory. 
 
 
 
For all its current-day glamour, effervescence, and association with the high life, champagne had a lackluster start. It was pale red in color, insipid in taste, and completely flat. Champagne's success can be traced back to King Louis XV and his mistress Madame de Pompadour, Napoleon Bonaparte, countless wars and prohibitions, and, most important to the United States, Charles Heidsieck.
