Synopsis

In "Submarine and Anti-submarine," Henry John Sir Newbolt presents a meticulous examination of naval warfare during the early 20th century, particularly focusing on the strategic interplay between submarine and anti-submarine tactics. Newbolt employs a clear, engaging literary style, blending technical analysis with historical narrative, which situates the book within the context of World War I naval strategy. He skillfully navigates the complexities of emerging submarine technology and its implications for naval power, reflecting the anxieties and innovations characteristic of this turbulent era. Newbolt, a prominent British poet, historian, and public figure, was deeply invested in the naval traditions of his time, having served in various capacities that provided him with firsthand insight into military affairs. His commitment to capturing the essence of nautical strategy and its ramifications was likely fueled by both his literary inclinations and his experiences as a lifelong advocate for the Royal Navy. This unique perspective allows Newbolt to articulate the tension between aggression and defense within maritime operations, a theme that resonates throughout the text. "Submarine and Anti-submarine" is invaluable for historians and military enthusiasts alike, as it offers a profound understanding of naval doctrine and its evolution. Newbolt'Äôs ability to distill complex concepts into accessible prose makes this work both informative and engaging. For those interested in the intricacies of maritime warfare and its historical context, this book is an essential addition to their library.

    The Upside-Down World - Meetings...

    Arriving as a young writer in an ancient Dutch town, Benjamin Moser found himself visiting—casually at first, and then more and more obsessively—the country's great museums. 
     
     
     
    Beyond the sainted Rembrandt—who harbored a startling darkness—and the mysterious Vermeer, whose true subject, it turned out, was lurking in plain sight, Moser got to know a whole galaxy of geniuses: the doomed virtuoso Carel Fabritius, the anguished wunderkind Jan Lievens, the deaf prodigy Hendrik Avercamp. 
     
     
     
    Year after year, as he tried to make a life for himself in the Netherlands, Moser found friends among these centuries-dead artists. And he found that they, too, were struggling with the same questions that he was. Why do we make art? What even is art, anyway—and what is an artist? What does it mean to succeed as an artist, and what does it mean to fail? 
     
     
     
    The Upside-Down World is an invitation to ask these questions, and to turn them on their heads: to look, and then to look again. This is Holland and its great artists as we've never seen them before. And it's a highly personal coming-of-age-story, twenty years in the making: a revealing self-portrait by one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation.

    In 1937, the fledgling Empire of Japan once more went to war with China, which by then had become a nation broken into petty warlord fiefdoms and wracked by civil war. The Japanese enacted a brutal campaign over the fragmented realms that made up China, committing atrocities just as horrendous as their Axis allies in Europe. Despite this, the sheer size of China, coupled with Japan’s overextension, allowed the larger, less developed nation to endure throughout World War II. 
    At the same time, China was experiencing an equally brutal civil war between Nationalist and Communist forces, which became inextricably intertwined with the fighting raging across the globe. In fact, the sheer scale of the horrors of the civil war remain hard to believe today, even as action in that theater is often overlooked because of events in Europe. What most people remember about the civil war is that it was ultimately won by Mao Zedong and the Communists, ushering in a new era of Communism in China and exiling the Republic of China’s government to Taiwan. Political tensions between Taiwan and China remain precarious to this day.  
    The Republic of China’s most famous leader and general was Chiang Kai-Shek, who rose from humble origins as the son of a local trader to become, as he liked to remind visitors, the ruler over more people than any other world leader. He certainly became one of the most influential leaders of the 20th century, yet today, he is considerably less well-known than many other figures from that period, which was so rife of chaos and tumultuous change. Chiang had come to power at a time when China was rebuilding itself after a period of internal conflict and turmoil, attempting to unify the nation in the face of the Japanese and the man who would become his arch-rival: Mao Zedong, leader of the Chinese Communists.  
    These ideological - and military - conflicts would decide the fate of Asia's biggest country going forward.

    Our ability to find meaning in things is one of the most important aspects of human life. But it is also one of the most mysterious. Where does meaning come from? What sorts of things have meaning? And how do we grasp the meaning others want to convey? Meaning: A Very Short Introduction is shaped by exploring possible answers to these questions. 
     
     
     
    Human societies have one particularly important device for expressing and sharing meaning: language. Since our words are paradigm examples of things which have meaning, in this book, Emma Borg and Sarah Fisher use meaning in language as a case study for exploring meaning more generally. They focus on three possible sources for word meaning: things in the world, things in the mind, and social practices, exploring the key approaches thinkers have put forward in each of these arenas. Finally, they end by looking at some concrete applications of the ideas and approaches introduced in the book.
