Synopsis

In "The Crisis of the Naval War: British Royal Navy in World War I," John Rushworth Jellicoe offers a meticulous examination of the Royal Navy's strategic operations during the Great War. Written with a blend of firsthand experience and analytical rigor, Jellicoe's prose combines narrative clarity with tactical detail, illuminating crucial events such as the Battle of Jutland. As a primary source from a pivotal wartime figure, the book situates Jellicoe's perspectives within the broader context of military strategy and naval history, reflecting on the challenges faced by naval leadership amid unprecedented global conflict. Jellicoe, who served as the commander of the Grand Fleet, draws upon his unique insights and experiences to illuminate the complexities of naval warfare. His firsthand involvement in key naval engagements, alongside his eventual shift into governmental roles, uniquely qualifies him to dissect the nuances of naval command. His upbringing in an era marked by rapid naval innovation and geopolitical tensions further fuels his engagement with the pressing issues of strategy and leadership during wartime. This work is an essential read for anyone interested in naval history, military strategy, or World War I. Jellicoe's authoritative voice provides not only a comprehensive analysis of the Royal Navy's wartime actions but also valuable lessons on command and decision-making that resonate with contemporary strategic studies.

Doreal) reveal a glimpse into the history of advanced Ancient Atlantis: its mechanical and scientific achievements; how it sank deep below the waves of the Atlantic; the founding of the colony that became Egypt...and the construction of its Great Pyramid.  
    The highest significance of these tablets is the keys to the unfoldment of the Heavens, the Earth, and the Divine Soul of Man; layered within its  poetic and mystical language. These Tablets are written so that the words respond to attuned thought waves, releasing the associate mental vibrations of an exhilarating rhythm in the mind of the reader.

    We can’t always control what happens to us. But we can discover how to heal the hidden hurt it leaves behind. If you’re like many of us, you carry a weight of buried pain. Despite looking put together on the outside, you feel secretly fractured within. While you appear strong and resilient on the outside, inside a storm brews of all the ways you’ve been hurt or harmed. There’s a constant churn of unprocessed feelings of shame, anger, grief, or loneliness. And your body tells the story of its struggles in a myriad of aches and ailments. Little by little, you find yourself becoming disconnected from who you truly are. Not knowing what to do with your suffering and fearing you'll be hurt again, you’ve learned to cope, to numb and suppress the ache within. It doesn’t have to be this way. In Healing What’s Within, therapist and professor Chuck DeGroat invites you on a compassionate journey inward to return and retune to the life God created you to live. Along the way, you will discover how to:  Gently consider and confront what’s keeping you stuck and blocking the path to joy and flourishing  Better understand the relationship between your body and your emotions  Experience God as a compassionate witness to your trauma―and his unconditional kindness to wherever you find yourself  Discover real rest and renewal as you reconnect with God, others, and yourself.  It’s never too late to start healing. God’s heart is always ready to help you find your way Home.

     Edited by David Cameron, Steve Munby and Mick Waters, Unfinished Business is both a tribute to Sir Tim Brighouse and a call to action based on Tim's approaches, commitment and ideas. 
    
     The first part of the book celebrates Tim's life and achievements. This includes contributions from his son Harry and longstanding colleagues and friends such as Bob Moon, David Woods and Jo n Coles. These accounts provide a rounded picture of Tim and, in a sense, make the case for listening to him and commemorating him in action rather than simply celebrating his memory. This part also includes contributions from David Blunkett and Estelle Morris that underline Tim's national status. 
    
     The second part of the book is forward-looking with contributions from close friends, career colleague, policy makers, politicians and the people that Tim thought made the most difference: teachers in schools. Contributors explore what we need to do now in order to continue Tim's work in their particular area of expertise. Contributors include:

    The seediest bar in town has a secret—an underground passage to the “muscle dungeon”. 
    The Weeping Pines Motel sits beside the road like a decaying roadkill carcass. This is my home now. This is where my masters make me stay. 
    How did I end up here? Stripped nude and wearing fluffy cat ears, I spend my evenings serving drinks. The men say I’m their catboy. They say I’ve joined their biker gang. 
    Each night, they feed me their seed and make me touch their muscles. It’s doing something to my brain…memories of my past are fading away. 
    The biker gang is in control now…
