Sinopse

Viking Expansion Routes explores the remarkable voyages of the Vikings, revealing them not just as raiders but as skilled navigators, traders, and settlers who significantly impacted Medieval Europe. The book examines the drivers behind their expansion, analyzing their maritime technology and the long-term effects of their presence. Intriguingly, Viking shipbuilding innovations allowed them to dominate the seas and rivers, while their settlements and trade networks reshaped political and economic landscapes. The book contextualizes Viking expansion within early medieval European history, drawing from diverse sources like Norse sagas and archaeological findings. It argues that Viking expansion was a series of interconnected processes influenced by environmental factors, economic incentives, and social dynamics. The approach moves beyond simple narratives of raiding to explore the complex factors that shaped Viking activities.

 
Structured systematically, Viking Expansion Routes begins with Viking society and culture, progresses to their shipbuilding skills, and then traces their routes westward to the British Isles and Iceland, southward to the Mediterranean, and eastward into Russia. The book concludes by assessing the lasting impact of Viking presence on the political, economic, and cultural development of Europe, offering a comprehensive understanding of this pivotal period.

    On Operations: Operational Art and Military Disciplines traces the history of the development of military staffs and ideas on the operational level of war and operational art from the Napoleonic Wars to today, viewing them through the lens of Prussia/Germany, the Soviet Union, and the United States. B. A. Friedman concludes that the operational level of war should be rejected as fundamentally flawed, but that operational art is an accurate description of the activities of the military staff, an organization developed to provide the brainpower necessary to manage the complexity of modern military operations. Rather than simply serve as an intercession between levels, the military staff exists as an enabler and supporting organization to tacticians and strategists alike. 
     
     
     
    On Operations examines the organization of military staffs, which has changed little since Napoleon's time. Historical examinations of the functions staffs provided to commanders, and the disciplines of the staff officers themselves, leads to conclusions about how best to organize staffs in the future. Friedman demonstrates these ideas through case studies of historical campaigns based on the military discipline system developed.

    Farhad, overwhelmed by excessive drinking, escapes the party and takes refuge in the bathroom. Ahmad, Farhad's close friend, joins him there. Both prefer the solitude of the bathroom over the celebration outside, choosing to spend their time in isolation. Ahmad believes the reason their friendship and deep bond have endured since adolescence is "honesty” and “transparency”. However, as they go through their past reflecting on their memories, signs such as mood swings, lack of focus, emotional instability, and particularly drowsiness, exacerbated by alcohol, begin to surface, reshaping their bond in their middle age. Unaware, the party is nearing its end, and the sun is beginning to rise.
