Sinopsis

Aviation History explores the profound impact of flight, from kites and gliders to the modern jet age, fundamentally altering travel and warfare. It examines how aviation's evolution reshaped geopolitical landscapes and redefined the speed of global interactions. Consider that early military aviation rapidly advanced during World War I, leading to the development of aerial combat tactics and technologies.Also, the interwar period saw the rise of commercial aviation, establishing international air routes and passenger aircraft, connecting the world in unprecedented ways. This book offers a comprehensive account of aviation, beginning with the pioneering dreams of flight and progressing through its militarization, commercialization, and its role in subsequent conflicts like World War II and the Cold War. It emphasizes that aviation's development isn't just technological advancement but a critical force in global power dynamics and sociocultural exchange. By drawing on pilot logs, technical documents, and military records, the book avoids simplistic narratives, providing a nuanced view of the complex forces shaping aviation. The book’s approach provides historical, social, and technological context, charting the progression from early experiments to advanced aircraft. It explores engineering, political science, and sociology to provide a holistic understanding of aviation's multifaceted impact. This makes it valuable for those interested in military history, technology, and the social impact of aviation innovation.

    The Homeland actress’s “recollections of her unconventional youth in war-torn Beirut are heartbreaking yet humorous . . . in this unique” memoir (Publishers Weekly).   Raised in 1970s Lebanon on Charles Baudelaire, A Clockwork Orange, and fine Bordeaux, Darina Al-Joundi was encouraged by her unconventional father to defy all taboos. She spent her adolescence defying death in Beirut nightclubs as bombs fell across the city. The more oppressive the country became, the more drugs and anonymous sex she had, fueling the resentment directed at her daily by the same men who would spend the night with her.   As the war dies down, she begins to incur the consequences of her lifestyle. On his deathbed, her father’s last wish is for his favorite song, “Sinnerman” by Nina Simone, to be played at his funeral instead of the traditional suras of the Koran. When she does just that, the final act of defiance elicits a catastrophic response from her surviving family members.   In this dramatic true story, Darina Al-Joundi is defiantly passionate about living her life as a liberated woman, even if it means leaving everyone and everything behind in this “beautifully taut and relentlessly unemotional” memoir (Kirkus).
