Sinossi

Maritime Trade explores the critical role of sea-based commerce in shaping global economies and military history. It reveals how control of sea lanes has consistently determined economic prosperity and naval power, impacting the rise and fall of empires. Intriguingly, the evolution of maritime trade is intertwined with advancements in shipbuilding technology and navigation, influencing international relations and the establishment of international law.

 
The book adopts an accessible yet rigorous approach, examining early trade networks like the Silk Road by sea, the development of naval power, and case studies such as the Atlantic slave trade triangle. It progresses across chapters by introducing fundamental concepts, then delving into historical examples and their contemporary implications, including the rise of China as a maritime power. This historical perspective offers a valuable understanding of modern globalization and geopolitical strategies.

 
Drawing from historical records, naval archives, and trade agreements, Maritime Trade provides a comprehensive overview suitable for students, academics, and general readers interested in history and economics. The book addresses debates about colonialism and unequal trade relationships, presenting a balanced perspective on the benefits and exploitative practices associated with maritime dominance.

    All American Waste is a collection of poetry that you won't be able to put your finger on. Focusing on the struggles of being a young adult in America, and the seemingly futile search to find what is left of the "American Dream," the poems within the book dance from relatable to powerful, and powerful to bizarre. They put the spotlight on the mundanity of everyday life, the importance of mental health, and the beauty of our fragile environment. There is truly a poem for every person in this book!

    'I entered Goldenbridge orphanage in my Communion outfit. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing there.'At age seven, Bernadette Fahy was delivered with her three brothers to Goldenbridge Orphanage. She was to stay there until she was sixteen.
    Goldenbridge has come to represent some of the worst aspects of childrearing practices in Ireland of the 1950s and 1960s. Seen as the offspring of people who had strayed from social respectability and religious standards, these children were made to pay for the 'sins' of their parents. Bernadette tells of the pain, fear, hunger, hard labour and isolation experienced in the orphanage.
    Can a person recover from such a childhood? How does the spirit ever take flight -- and gain the 'freedom of angels'?
    This is Bernadette Fahy's concern. Now trained and working as a counsellor, she has had to dig deeply into her past to understand the patterns laid down by her upbringing. She has had to rebuild her life, and now she helps others to do the same.
    This book is a story of triumph over the harshest of circumstances.

    As one of al-Qaeda’s most respected bomb-makers, Aimen Dean rubbed shoulders with the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks and swore allegiance to Osama bin Laden himself. 
    As a double agent at the heart of al-Qaeda’s chemical weapons program, he foiled attacks on civilians and saved countless lives, brushing with death so often that his handlers began to call him their spy with nine lives. 
    This is the story of how a young Muslim, determined to defend his faith, found himself fighting on the wrong side—and his fateful decision to work undercover for his sworn enemy. From the killing fields of Bosnia to the training camps of Afghanistan, from running money and equipment in Britain to dodging barrel bombs in Syria, we discover what life is like inside the global jihad, and what it will take to stop it once and for all.
