Sinopsis

Rough Seas Calm explores the lives of 19th-century fishermen in the North Atlantic, revealing how their maritime skills, adaptive learning, and robust teamwork enabled them to face unimaginable adversity. It highlights the crucial role of environmental and economic factors in shaping these coastal communities, demonstrating how the fishermen's survival depended less on individual heroism and more on shared knowledge and cooperation. This historical adventure showcases human resilience in the face of nature's overwhelming power.

 
The book examines the fishing industry through historical records, oral histories, and technological advancements, providing a comprehensive view of maritime work. Beginning with an introduction to the harsh realities of North Atlantic fishing, it progresses to examine the development of critical skills such as navigation and weather prediction, and culminates in a study of how these experiences shaped community resilience and the transmission of maritime knowledge across generations.

    The United States is the most powerful actor in the international system, but it is facing a set of challenges that might lead to its decline as this century unfolds. 
     
     
     
    In The Pursuit of Dominance, Christopher J. Fettweis examines the grand strategy of previous superpowers to see how they maintained, or failed to maintain, their status. Over the course of six cases, from Ancient Rome to the British Empire, he seeks guidance from the past for present US policymakers. Like the United States, the examples Fettweis uses were the world's strongest powers at particularly moments in time, and they were hoping to stay that way. Rather than focusing on those powers' rise or how they ruled, however, Fettweis looks at how they sought to maintain their power. From these cases, one paramount lesson becomes clear: Dominant powers usually survive even the most incompetent leaders. Fettweis is most interested in how these superpowers defined their interests, the grand strategies these regimes followed to maintain superiority over their rivals, and how the practice of that strategy worked. 
     
     
     
    A sweeping history of grand strategy, The Pursuit of Dominance looks at the past 2,000 years to highlight what—if anything—current US strategists can learn from the experience of earlier superpowers.

    Arriving as a young writer in an ancient Dutch town, Benjamin Moser found himself visiting—casually at first, and then more and more obsessively—the country's great museums. 
     
     
     
    Beyond the sainted Rembrandt—who harbored a startling darkness—and the mysterious Vermeer, whose true subject, it turned out, was lurking in plain sight, Moser got to know a whole galaxy of geniuses: the doomed virtuoso Carel Fabritius, the anguished wunderkind Jan Lievens, the deaf prodigy Hendrik Avercamp. 
     
     
     
    Year after year, as he tried to make a life for himself in the Netherlands, Moser found friends among these centuries-dead artists. And he found that they, too, were struggling with the same questions that he was. Why do we make art? What even is art, anyway—and what is an artist? What does it mean to succeed as an artist, and what does it mean to fail? 
     
     
     
    The Upside-Down World is an invitation to ask these questions, and to turn them on their heads: to look, and then to look again. This is Holland and its great artists as we've never seen them before. And it's a highly personal coming-of-age-story, twenty years in the making: a revealing self-portrait by one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation.
