Summary

Tactical Espionage explores the hidden world where nations engage in shadow wars, using intelligence and covert operations to gain strategic advantages. It delves into the evolution of espionage, from ancient methods to modern cyber warfare, revealing how these tactics have shaped global conflicts. The book dissects significant covert operations, analyzing their planning, execution, and impact on political and military outcomes.

 
Understanding espionage is crucial because it's not just a supplementary tool but a fundamental driver of geopolitical power. The book analyzes the structures and functions of prominent intelligence agencies like the CIA, MI6, and the KGB, illustrating how these organizations operate within and outside conventional warfare. It begins with foundational concepts like tradecraft and intelligence gathering (SIGINT, HUMINT) before moving into detailed case studies.

 
By drawing on declassified documents, historical archives, and memoirs, Tactical Espionage provides a balanced, evidence-based view, avoiding sensationalism while offering a comprehensive understanding of espionage as an instrument of state power. The book progresses through chapters that explore foundational concepts, detailed case studies of covert operations, and the role of intelligence agencies. Concluding chapters synthesize these insights, offering a framework for understanding the future of espionage in the digital age and discussing the ethical implications of covert actions.

 
This makes the book valuable for students, policymakers, security professionals, and anyone interested in the complex world of international relations.

    'Parenting is not just about bringing up children. It is about growing up and transforming ourselves to be better human beings. Every parent would do well to get themselves a copy.' 
    - India Today 
    'A simple belief - a happy mother is the best thing for children.' 
    - The Hindu 
    'Alive with anecdotes, distilled theory and authentic empathy - a gift of a book that nudges us gently through a reflective connect with ourselves and our children into the world of life-affirming parenting.' 
    - Gloria Burrett, Psychotherapist, New Delhi 
     
    'I accept and love you the way you are. You are unique, you are different, and you are you. I will not compare you with others, I will not constantly keep expecting and demanding what you might not be able to do or give.' 
    As parents, we foist our dreams and aspirations on our children, push them to be more than we could ever be. But do we have the courage and honesty to look within and ask what drives our parenting - our own needs or those of our children? More crucially, are we able to accept them and respect them for who they are?  
    Child & adolescent psychologist and family therapist Shelja Sen formulates five anchors of parenting to help you connect with the immense wisdom that is already present in you:  
    Connect (create the foundation of parenting);  
    Coach (build the necessary skills in children through an understanding of their unique wiring and temperament);  
    Care (nurture ourselves for a more wholesome life);  
    Community (build caring ecosystems for children to thrive in); and  
    Commit (sustain the courage and compassion).  
    Groundbreaking, essential reading.

    Born in poverty-stricken Albania, twin sisters Argita and Detina Zalli always dreamed of becoming doctors. Their parents scrimped and sacrificed, committed to giving them a better life. But then the unthinkable happened. In 1997, the government collapsed, plunging the country into anarchy and civil war. The twins' dream unraveled along with their homeland. Their parents had to find a way to leave and save their daughters' futures—not to mention their very lives. 
     
     
     
    It took over two years for the Zalli family to escape. After several dangerous attempts, they finally made it to England, where the thirteen-year-old twins believed everything would be much better. They soon found out otherwise. Now refugees, with little more than the clothes on their backs, the girls were mercilessly bullied and constantly afraid they would be sent back to Albania, and their parents would be sent to jail. Still, the twins persevered and learned how to navigate their harsh new reality. When tragedy struck yet again, the girls had to come to terms with the high price they had all paid to survive. 
     
     
     
    In Good Morning, Hope, Argita and Detina share their harrowing story of courage and resilience. It was the strength of their family, particularly the sisters' unique, unbreakable bond as twins, that nurtured and sustained them throughout their perilous ordeal.

    The Citicorp Center, a fifty-nine-story skyscraper built in 1977, immediately became one of the most recognizable features on the New York City skyline with its distinctive inclined roof and oddly placed support columns. Designed by one of the top structural engineers in the field, William LeMessurier, the tower would become the crown jewel of his professional career; In essence, he created a skyscraper on stilts. The building was a modern marvel—until it was revealed that it had a one in sixteen chance of collapse. 
     
     
     
    The Great Miscalculation tells the riveting story of LeMessurier's discovery of a fatal flaw in his building's design and his decision to blow the whistle on himself, putting his reputation on the line in a race to save this iconic skyscraper. With hurricane season rapidly approaching, the structural design flaws of the Citicorp Tower posed a menacing danger. Meanwhile, the economic hardships and political turmoil of 1970s New York only compounded the obstacles to a massively expensive, never-before-seen structural redesign in the heart of downtown Manhattan. 
     
     
     
    A fascinating piece of overlooked New York City history, The Great Miscalculation tells the gripping narrative of a catastrophe averted in the nick of time.
