  Until the end of the Cold War in 1990, the RAF had several major bases worldwide—largely in those areas where the service had been based during the inter-war years. In Cold War Boys Overseas, contributors recall their time at these foreign destinations. With almost half of RAF personnel serving abroad in the 1960s situated throughout Germany, the book starts its focus there with tales of monitoring the Soviet threat. The stories then advance to the warmer climates of the Near East and Far East where different challenges awaited those serving there. As the period progressed RAF squadrons saw changes to their equipment with Hunters, Javelins and Canberras being replaced by a new generation of combat aircraft such as the Buccaneer, Harrier, Jaguar, Phantom and Vulcan. Innovation of missile defense and the expansion of the role of helicopters were also critical at this time. How this affected the RAF is told by the aircrew and ground crew who served then. The stories that feature in the book reveal just how serving overseas was a different way of life and the chapters illustrate the many facets of the RAF’s capabilities across the globe. They also highlight a lifestyle that no longer exists in today's RAF. Buckle up and allow the Cold War Boys to take you on a thrilling adventure across the globe.

  Creativity is often seen as the driving force behind progress and innovation, but it can be difficult to define due to its fluid and multifaceted nature. At its core, creativity is the ability to generate novel ideas, solutions, or artistic expressions that are both original and valuable. It is not confined to any one discipline and can manifest in countless forms, whether in art, science, business, or everyday life. While many people may perceive creativity as an inherent trait, research suggests that it can also be nurtured and developed through practice and the right environment. This chapter explores the definition of creativity and the reasons why it is so crucial in both personal and professional realms. 
    
  The importance of creativity extends far beyond individual expression. It plays a central role in solving complex problems, adapting to new challenges, and envisioning future possibilities. In the workplace, creativity fuels innovation, allowing businesses to stay competitive and responsive to the rapidly changing demands of global markets. In education, creative thinking is essential for fostering critical thinking and lifelong learning. Creativity can also promote emotional well-being, offering a means of self-expression and problem-solving when faced with personal challenges.

  Selling Social Justice - Why the...

  The national racial reckoning that began in 2020 promised to radically restructure American society from the bottom up. But five years on, it has mainly served to strengthen the ruling class and deliver the rich an opportunity to rehabilitate a profoundly unequal economic order at a moment when the stability of the system and the public's trust in it are deteriorating. 
   
   
   
  Corporations have used antiracism to consolidate their political power and evade government regulation. Employers have surveilled and undermined workers through counterproductive diversity, equity, and inclusion trainings. Affluent professionals and Democratic politicians have exacerbated a stark class divide by pushing half-baked "racial equity" policies that come at the expense of the majority of working people. And the right has reacted to these developments by stoking a toxic culture war against "wokeness" that serves as a distraction from the increasing economic hardship faced by Americans of all races. 
   
   
   
  Selling Social Justice investigates the rise and spread of contemporary antiracist ideology and shows how the rich came to embrace this particular form of justice. In this provocative account, Jennifer C. Pan explores why, in a twenty-first-century economy of increasing scarcity, antiracism is the wrong frame for understanding and fighting inequality.
