In 'The Imperial Japanese Navy,' Fred T. Jane presents an exhaustive analysis of Japan's naval history, emphasizing its strategic evolution and technological advancements leading to the nation's rise as a major naval power. With a meticulous examination of the organizational structure, fleet composition, and pivotal naval engagements, Jane employs a clear, informative literary style rich in detail yet accessible to a wide audience. The work is set against the backdrop of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period marked by intense military competition and imperial aspirations, making it a significant contribution to maritime history studies. Jane, a celebrated naval architect and historian, brought to this work his extensive knowledge and firsthand experience from his involvement in naval projects and design. His firsthand observations during critical naval developments in Britain and Asia underscored his appreciation for maritime strategy and the importance of naval power in geopolitics. This background positioned him uniquely to document the Imperial Japanese Navy's transformation and significance within global naval warfare. This seminal work is a must-read for scholars, historians, and naval enthusiasts alike. Jane's insightful analysis not only elucidates Japan's maritime strategies but also enriches our understanding of naval warfare's impact on international relations. Readers seeking to grasp the complexities of naval power dynamics in the era will find this book invaluable.

The Tabernacle in the Wilderness

Manly Palmer Hall

There is no doubt that much of the material recorded in the first five books of the Old Testament is derived from the initiatory rituals of the Egyptian Mysteries. The priests of Isis were deeply versed in occult lore, and the Israelites during their captivity in Egypt learned from them many things concerning the significance of Divinity and the manner of worshiping It. The authorship of the first five books of the Old Testament is generally attributed to Moses, but whether or not he was the actual writer of them is a matter of controversy. There is considerable evidence to substantiate the hypothesis that the Pentateuch was compiled at a much later date, from oral traditions.

Love Tutoring - Be the tutor...

Julia Silver

Written by former school-leader Julia Silver, Love Tutoring: Be the tutor your student needs is an essential guide to professional development for all tutors. Based on her Foundations of Effective Tutoring course, Julia shares an enthusiastic and enabling vision of tutoring as a burgeoning space within the educational landscape.
At a time when teacher retention and pupil attendance are at an all-time low, tutoring provides a gentler, more person-centred and holistic approach to teaching and learning. Once considered a Plan B option, tutoring is fast becoming a legitimate career choice.
The rollout of the UK government's National Tutoring Programme has brought tutoring into the spotlight. Previously considered 'shadow-schooling' over the last decade, a quarter of all 11-16-year-olds have received private tuition in England and Wales (rising to 42% in London). But for tutoring to take its place in the future of education, and become an affordable option for all our students, we need more, and better qualified tutors.
Combining theory and practice, this book provides tutors with a solid grounding in the pedagogy of tutoring. Julia takes the big ideas from evidence-based practice in teaching and learning today and makes them relevant and accessible to the ways tutors work.
Backed up by real-life examples and interviews with professional tutors, this book offers a broad insight into the tutoring profession and explores the different ways to make tutoring a career that you love. Love Tutoring is an invitation, a provocation, and a call to action. This book goes right to the heart of the tutoring relationship and will give every tutor a roadmap for becoming the tutor their student needs.
Suitable for tutors of all ages, subjects and levels of expertise, as well as interested parents, agencies, schools or other organisations who employ tutors.
