Sinopsis

Underwater Combat explores the multifaceted world of fighting beneath the surface, revealing how the aquatic environment shapes military and sporting strategies. This exploration goes beyond recounting historical events, offering a comprehensive framework for understanding underwater combat effectiveness. From ancient siege tactics to modern special forces, water's influence on combat, movement, and speed is profound. The book uniquely integrates historical analysis with scientific principles, such as fluid dynamics and human physiology, making complex concepts accessible. 

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with the physics of underwater movement, including drag and buoyancy. It then transitions to the evolution of underwater combat tactics, highlighting early frogmen and contemporary underwater demolition teams. Finally, it examines the physiological challenges faced by combatants, such as pressure and oxygen toxicity. 

 
By drawing on historical accounts, technical manuals, and first-hand narratives, Underwater Combat provides valuable insights for military historians, sports enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the demands of underwater operations.

  • The Art of Horsemanship and On the Cavalry General by Xenophon - cover

    The Art of Horsemanship and On...

    Name Xenophon, Morris Morgan

    Xenophon’s The Art of Horsemanship is a highly unusual text in the corpus of Classical Greek literature. It is a short survey on the various aspects of care for horses as seen by a highly experienced rider from the 5th century BCE. It is particularly notable because so many of its observations are relevant to the modern rider. Xenophon, friend of Socrates and professional soldier, is best known as the author Anabasis, the vivid account of a failed military expedition deep into Persia.  
     
    The Art of Horsemanship is very different in tone and content – a practical study from deep personal knowledge gained from working with horses, but none the less fascinating. 
     
     Xenophon considers what features and qualities to look for in a horse – among them broad chest, wide nostrils, prominent eye, supple knees, positive manner– and the sound of the hoof, which indicates good feet. (The ancient Greeks did not shoe their horses). There are even useful tips on approaching the horse to avoid conflict. He discusses training over different terrains and many other useful tips. The translator, Morris H. Morgan, provides extensive notes, not just on technical pointers such as mounting without stirrups or saddle, but also by comparing contemporary sculptures where artists took licence over reality. Furthermore, Morgan provides a fascinating essay The Greek Riding-Horse, which is an extended commentary on Xenophon.  Also on this recording is Xenophon’s On The Cavalry General, a second treatise on horsemanship, but taking a different perspective.

    Building muscle is at once very simple and simultaneously incredibly complicated. If that sounds like something of a frustrating contradiction… well then get used to it! As you learn more about growing muscle and getting jacked you’ll find that almost all the information you come across only makes things more complicated and more difficult. Everyone has a different opinion and no-one seems able to agree on what the best way to get into powerful shape actually is. 
    When you start out though, it all seems very straightforward. In order to grow, you need to exercise more and eat more protein. When you do this, you start to build more muscle and you see yourself constantly increase in strength. If you aren’t seeing any growth or strength gains, then it might well simply mean that you aren’t going to the gym regularly enough, or working out hard enough when you are there!
