Synopsis

Space Warfare Risks explores the escalating potential for military clashes in space, driven by geopolitical tensions and technological advancements. The book highlights how our reliance on space-based assets like satellites for vital services, such as communication and navigation, ironically makes them prime targets. One intriguing fact is the increasing development of anti-satellite (ASAT) weapons, designed to disrupt or destroy these crucial systems. Another key insight is the dangerous lack of comprehensive international laws governing military activities in space, which creates a risk of miscalculation and escalation.

The book traces the evolution of space technology from ballistic missiles to its current integration into military and civilian life, examining the erosion of early treaties intended to prevent weaponization. It delves into current military space capabilities and strategies of major world powers, arguing that the absence of robust international agreements, combined with the growing importance of space assets, has created instability. The approach is holistic, integrating technological, political, and legal considerations.

Beginning with core concepts and key players, the book analyzes threats like ASAT weapons and cyber warfare targeting satellites. It examines case studies of past incidents and near misses to illustrate the fragility of the current situation. Finally, it discusses potential solutions, including arms control and improved space situational awareness, offering a balanced assessment of the dangers and opportunities in space warfare.

The Beauty Of Being Old - The...

Sripad Jagannatha Dasa

As you stand before the mirror, you may glimpse something unexpected—a reflection that feels familiar and strange. The face staring back at you shows the subtle marks of time. The youthful smoothness is replaced with the creases of age, and hair that once held vibrant color now carries a shade of gray. The body that once moved with ease now speaks in aches and fatigue. With each passing day, it may feel like something is being taken away—a vitality that once felt eternal and is now slipping away. But what if this view of aging is not the full truth? What if, instead of fearing it, we could embrace it? The Buddha often spoke of impermanence, the truth that everything in life always changes. "All conditioned things are impermanent," he taught, and when we see this with wisdom, we can turn away from suffering. In Buddhist thought, aging is not something to resist, but a natural part of life's unfolding. The more we resist it, the more we suffer, because we are fighting against the natural way of the world. It is not aging that causes pain, but our attachment to the belief that things should remain as they were. The fear of aging comes from our desires, from longing for the way things once were. Time moves forward, and so must we. The Buddha reminds us that nothing in this world is permanent, and all things arise and pass away. When we accept this reality, we are free to live with grace and peace. Aging becomes a part of the natural rhythm of life, not something to fear. It is through this acceptance that we find wisdom. As we grow older, we understand that those ahead of us on this journey are simply at a different stage, not different from us. And as we age, we shed the past and move forward with deeper wisdom. The Buddha teaches that the body is not the self, and it is this deeper truth that helps us find peace in the midst of change.

Our Last Best Act - Planning For...

Mallory McDuff

As we begin to contemplate death and to embark on practical planning for life's end, many of us long to leave a legacy beyond a transfer of money and property—one that ensures a sustainable earth for our loved ones, our communities, and generations to come. But where do we even begin? 
 
 
 
With the sudden deaths of both of her parents, Mallory McDuff found herself in a similar position. Utterly unprepared both emotionally and practically, she began to research sustainable practices around death and dying. For McDuff, an educator and environmentalist, what started as a highly personal endeavor expanded into a yearlong exploration and assessment of green burials, aquamation, green cemeteries, home funerals, and human composting. 
 
 
 
In Our Last Best Act, McDuff bridges the gap between environmental action and religious faith by demonstrating that when the two are combined, they become a powerful force for the greater good. Full of practical information, this book equips listeners to make decisions for their own end-of-life planning. In a world experiencing a climate crisis and a culture that avoids discussions about death and dying, this book opens the conversation about the choices we make—and how it's possible for our death to honor our values, create a sustainable legacy, and help to heal the earth.

The Colonial Wars 1689-1762

Howard H. Peckham

Although the colonial wars consisted of almost continuous raids and skirmishes between the English and French colonists and their Indian allies and enemies, they can be separated into four major conflicts, corresponding to four European wars of which they were, in varying degrees, a part: King William’s War (1689-97) (War of the League of Augsburg); Queen Anne’s War (1702-13) (War of the Spanish Succession); King George’s War (1744-48) (War of the Austrian Succession); and The French and Indian War (1755-62) (Seven Years’ War).
 
Howard Peckham chronicles the events of these wars, summarizing the struggle for empire in America among France, England, and Spain. He indicates how the colonists applied the experience they gained from fighting Indians to their engagements with European powers. And what they learned from the colonial wars they translated into a political philosophy that led to independence and self-government.
 
The ready involvement of the colonies in European ambitions, the success and failure of co-operation between colony and mother country, the efforts of the English colonies together, and the growing differences between them and Britain give the narrative continuity and rising excitement.
