  A 36‑lecture audio course on how wars are actually fought in the machine age—from seabed cables and city power grids to low‑Earth orbit, cislunar space, and the neural loop between a human and a weapon. We break the kill chain open: sensing and space‑based cueing; edge compute and target fusion; communications that survive jamming; and the things that do damage—mines, missiles, loitering munitions, directed energy, electromagnetic pulse, and code. 
  We make the stack legible for operators and serious thinkers alike: synthetic aperture radar becomes SAR; high‑altitude long endurance becomes HALE; link budgets and laser crosslinks stop being magic and start being math you can reason about in words. You will see how orbital “stalkers” shadow satellites, why stratospheric platforms matter when air defenses make manned ISR bleed, how decoys and digital camouflage fracture an adversary’s picture, and where the automation boundary really sits when AI runs parts of the kill web with a human on the loop. 
  Engineering reality, not brochure fog, sets the pace. We trace power budgets, attrition math, and reconstitution timelines; map chokepoints in chips, propellants, optics, batteries, and shipyards; and follow sanctions, export controls, and standards as operational constraints, not afterthoughts. 
  The glidepath is explicit. 2025 to 2035: proliferated space, cheap autonomy, hard lessons from electronic warfare. 2035 to 2050: directed‑energy baselines, resilient meshes, smarter decoys. 2050 to 2075 and beyond: cislunar logistics with teeth, human performance management that is governed not ghoulish, brain–computer interfaces that shorten loops without erasing judgment. 
  Rigorous, unsentimental, and built for the intellectually ambitious, this course is an operator’s guide to modern combat systems—how they are built, how they break, and how they win.

  General Relativity - A...

  General Relativity, formulated by Albert Einstein in 1915, is a theory of gravitation that revolutionized our understanding of space, time, and gravity. Unlike Newton’s theory of gravitation, which treated gravity as a force between masses, General Relativity posits that gravity is a result of the curvature of spacetime caused by the presence of mass and energy. This chapter serves as an introduction to the fundamental principles of General Relativity and the key concepts that underpin this theory. 
  One of the central ideas of General Relativity is the equivalence principle, which asserts that there is no distinguishable difference between acceleration due to gravity and acceleration due to other forces. This insight led Einstein to the realization that gravity could be described not as a force, but as a manifestation of the curvature of spacetime. Spacetime, a four-dimensional continuum, is distorted by mass and energy, and this curvature dictates how objects move within it. Objects follow the “straightest” possible paths, known as geodesics, which are curved in the presence of massive objects. 
  Another cornerstone of General Relativity is the concept of curved spacetime. The presence of mass and energy alters the fabric of spacetime, much like a heavy ball placed on a stretched rubber sheet deforms the sheet’s surface. The more massive an object is, the more it warps spacetime. This warping of spacetime is what we perceive as gravity. For example, the Earth orbits the Sun not because the Sun exerts a force on Earth in the traditional sense, but because the Sun’s mass curves spacetime, and the Earth follows the geodesic path within that curvature.

  The Effluent Society

  Artist Norman Thelwell is best known for his cartoons depicting plump, petulant ponies and their young riders, but The Effluent Society shows another aspect of his work and character. Thelwell was passionate about the countryside and nature. During his life he became increasingly concerned about the impact of development, pollution and society's treatment of the environment. When The Effluent Society was first published in 1971, his concerns were way ahead of their time. Today, environmental and conservation issues are in the mainstream and have become a global priority.
  
  Although the cartoons focus on a serious topic there is no mistaking Thelwell's inimitable style. He used his talent and humour to convey a powerful message: the need to protect the environment. He also takes a wry look at modern life and so-called progress. Thelwell admitted that out of all his books, The Effluent Society was the one that gave him the greatest 'personal satisfaction' and, as such, the re-issue of this title is a fitting tribute to the artist.
