Summary

Historical Manga Styles explores the fascinating evolution of manga, revealing how early, simple lines transformed into today's captivating visual language. The book argues that modern manga styles are a direct result of continuous artistic experimentation and social change, challenging its perception as merely a commercial art form. It delves into the pioneering techniques of early artists and the socio-cultural contexts that fostered innovation, highlighting influences like ukiyo-e woodblock prints.

 
The book examines the critical junctures and artistic innovations that have shaped manga's aesthetic. Beginning with pre-manga art forms, it examines the contributions of pioneers like Osamu Tezuka and traces the development of genres such as shojo and shonen. The analysis extends to how classic styles are adapted in contemporary works, demonstrating their enduring relevance.

 
This approach provides a comprehensive, historically grounded understanding of manga art, making it valuable for art enthusiasts and those in creative industries.

    Winner, 2022 Army Historical Foundation Distinguished Writing Awards, Unit HistoryThis second volume follows on from the first in recounting the WWII history of B Company, 756th Tank Battalion in vivid detail. The outfit, since upgraded from M5 light tanks to M4 ‘Sherman’ mediums, claws through some of the toughest battles of WWII—from a horrific stalemate at Cassino in February 1944, through the bloody Operation Diadem May breakout, to the stunning capture of Rome on 4 June 1944.  This unique multi-volume history covers the full spectrum of experiences of the men in one tank company from inception in June 1941 through the occupation of Germany in 1945. An American tank company in WWII consisted of only five officers and approximately 100 enlisted men—all living, traveling and fighting in seventeen tanks, two jeeps, one truck, one half-track and one tank retriever. Uniting the official record with the rich, personal accounts of the participants, the reader is swept along a highly detailed and shocking journey chronicling the evolution of American armor doctrine and tank design from June 1941 through VE Day.  The B Company tankers often fought at a disadvantage—struggling to survive a myriad of battlefield challenges and triumph against enemy armor better armed and better protected. What was once envisioned as a warfare of sweeping armored formations managed by West Point lieutenant colonels and ROTC captains quickly devolved into small unit street fights relying more and more on the initiative, resourcefulness and cunning of lowly OCS lieutenants and combat-seasoned sergeants. The journey is long, unforgiving and brutal, and 47 tankers would be lost along the way.

    Good God - Suffering faith...

    How can Christians believe in an all-powerful, all-knowing and loving God whilst there is so much suffering in the world? Contemporary theology books refer to the problem of theodicy as a significant and unresolved problem. Engaging with theology, biblical study, physics and biology, and philosophy and producing a cohesive synthesis of these subjects, Good God offers an answer that has the potential to re-integrate Christian theology with science and philosophy for the first time since the Enlightenment.

 
Michael Brooks writes with both academic rigour and pastoral sensitivity. As a science and medicine graduate who is also an ordained minister, he makes science and theology comprehensible to those not trained in either discipline.

 
The book opens the reader to the notion of a wonderful creation that is so full of the miraculous that this is taken for granted. Good God provides an answer to a very important question in a way that edifies faith and offers eternal hope.
