Summary

Cold War Tactics explores the multifaceted strategies employed by the United States and the Soviet Union during their decades-long standoff. It examines how both superpowers navigated a world on the brink of nuclear annihilation, focusing on covert operations, propaganda, and the ever-present threat of nuclear conflict.

 
The book argues that the Cold War was not just a bipolar standoff, but rather a complex conflict fought on ideological, economic, and technological fronts. It reveals how the constant tension between ideologies shaped global events and continues to influence international relations today.

 
The book traces the Cold War’s origins from the ashes of World War II, detailing the ideological differences and geopolitical ambitions that fueled the rivalry. It then examines covert operations carried out by the CIA and KGB, analyzing their successes and ethical implications. The book also explores propaganda campaigns used to sway public opinion and undermine opponents.

 
Finally, it addresses the nuclear arms race and the doctrine of mutually assured destruction. By drawing upon declassified documents and primary sources, Cold War Tactics offers a comprehensive understanding of this pivotal period in world history.

    Have you ever wondered just what was the Hanseatic League?, How malt was made, or how eels get to the Sargasso Sea? The answers to these and many other questions will be found in this book. 
Spanning the period from the Anglo-Saxons to the coming of the railway, two Points East is about the boats, the fishing and some of the lives lived on the North sea coast of Norfolk, from the once world-famous herring fishery in Great Yarmouth to the extraordinary rescues of Cromer’s famous lifeboatman Henry Blogg. 
Judith Ellis lives in Norfolk with an insatiable curiosity and some very fine memories of sailing off the East Anglian coast. A lifelong interest in traditional boats combined with a love of history and sketching has found expression in this book.

    Living the Good Life presents a brief introduction to virtue and vice, self-control and weakness, misery and happiness. The book contrasts the thought of Aquinas with popular views, such as moral relativism, values clarification, utilitarianism, Kantian deontology, and situation ethics. Following the Socratic dictum "know thyself," Steven J. Jensen investigates the interior workings of the human mind, revealing the interplay of reason, will, and emotions. 
 
 
 
Jensen ably guides listeners through Aquinas's philosophy and explains the distinction between the moral and intellectual virtues. The moral virtues train our various desires toward the true good, helping us discard our misguided cravings and teaching us to enjoy what is truly worth pursuing. The virtue of justice directs our hearts to the good of others, freeing us from egoism in order to seek a good shared with others. Most important, the virtue of prudence directs our deliberations to discover the true path of life. 
 
 
 
Intended as a text for students, beginners of philosophy will gain access to a key aspect of Aquinas's thought, namely, that true happiness is realized not in the animal life of passion and greed but only in the reasonable pursuit of human goods, in which we find true peace and rest from the distractions of this world.
