Synopsis

Night Operations examines the compelling history and evolution of night warfare, highlighting how combat in the dark has shaped military conflicts across eras. The book explores the development of night operations through a blend of historical analysis, technological insight, and tactical doctrine. Readers will discover how early night raids have evolved into sophisticated military strategies, influenced significantly by technological innovations like night vision and infrared devices. 

 
The book argues that while technology has amplified advantages in night combat, it hasn't fundamentally changed the core principles. For example, the element of surprise, crucial in the Battle of Trenton, remains vital even with modern thermal imaging. Night Operations progresses chronologically, starting with historical roots, then delving into technological advancements, and finally analyzing case studies to reveal how armies have adapted (or failed to adapt). 

 
A unique aspect is its focus on the human element, exploring the psychological challenges faced by soldiers in the dark and ethical considerations of night vision technology. By drawing on military archives and first-hand accounts, Night Operations offers a broad overview, illustrating how technology, history, and military strategy converge to inform modern warfare and defense policy.

The Book of Nonexistent Words

Anonyme

The internationally acclaimed author harnesses his brilliant imagination and masterful storytelling ability to create a catalog of new words inspired by stories of real people in this wondrous book reminiscent of Italo Calvino's mesmerizing Invisible Cities.
How many times have words not been enough?
How many complex feelings don’t have a corresponding noun that properly describes them?
How many times has language left us like an archer without arrows in the labyrinth of our emotions?
Award-winning author Stefano Massini, a master of expression,, made a discovery that shot new life into his writing practice. To his surprise he found that the ancient rules of language were not quite as restrictive as he had long envisioned them to be. With so many emotions and states of mind missing modern descriptors and definitions, Massini stumbled across a simple but artistry-altering idea. Instead of compromising honest expression through perfunctory verbiage, he decided language was, if anything, a flowing palette of colors he could use to paint all things. Words are meant to be invented.
To reconfirm his belief in the magic of words, Massini returned to the wondrous mechanism that has fed dictionaries from time immemorial. If he could not find the precise word he wanted, he created one. In this delightful compendium, he introduces his personal vocabulary; every chapter mentions a new word that comes from a story about a real person, from Louis XIV to an American gangster.
The Book of Nonexistent Words is a beautifully illustrated collection of linguistic origin stories wrought from the mind of an internationally renowned storytelling icon. Massini effectively liberates our human capacity for using language creatively and shows how we can embrace storytelling to fine tune our way of being in the world. Massini encourages us to be imaginative; if the language in the dictionary cannot adequately match the reality of the here and now, we must create new words that ring true.
