Sinopse

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.

    Leadership is often talked about—but rarely understood. 
    Extreme Leadership cuts through the jargon and theory to show what real leadership looks like under pressure. With clarity, edge, and real-world insight, Charles Patton delivers a direct, no-nonsense guide for those who want to lead—and get results. 
    Leadership isn't about titles, org charts, or abstract models. It's about stepping up when it counts, seeing what others miss, and taking action when others hesitate. Drawing from bold examples and practical lessons, this book explores how extreme leaders think, respond, and succeed—even in chaotic, high-stakes environments. 
    Written as a supplement to graduate-level courses but accessible to anyone with a stake in leading or following, this book challenges the idea that leadership is soft, outdated, or optional. It's not. It's essential. 
    If you want the things great people have, you must do the things great leaders do. This book shows you how.
