Sinopsis

Pearl Harbor examines the complex factors leading to the Japanese attack on December 7, 1941, an event that propelled the U.S. into World War II. It explores the deterioration of US-Japanese relations, Japan's strategic planning, and the attack’s profound impact on American society.

 
The book highlights the economic sanctions imposed on Japan, particularly the oil embargo, which fueled Japan's sense of desperation and its view of the attack as a necessary pre-emptive strike. The book avoids simplistic narratives by using primary sources to reconstruct events. It begins by tracing the roots of the conflict, then dissects Japanese planning and details the attack itself.

 
Finally, the book analyzes the American response, the declaration of war, and the long-term impacts of Pearl Harbor on World War II and American foreign policy. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of how escalating tensions and strategic miscalculations culminated in this pivotal moment in history.

Now, for the first time, he reveals the stories behind each of these 'commandments'; what drives him, the obstacles he overcame and what makes him hopeful.'His voice and representation are inspirational and a force to reckon with.'

Artificial Intelligence in...

Introbooks Team

Sci-fi authors, Movie-makers and futurists have been dreaming Artificial Intelligence taking over for decades now. They have been defining the new horizon of robotic technology, artificial brain and artificial intelligence for a long time. However, what was their dreams, the researchers and scientists of the twenty-first century have turned it almost into a mere reality. Artificial Intelligence nowadays has surrounded us. Almost all the technical and some of the non-technical fields are improving pretty fast, holding the hands of Artificial Intelligence. From the auto parking facility in your car to the sometimes frustrating voice assistance application in your Smartphone. From defining diseases and their medication in the healthcare sector to our education system nowadays, you name it. Almost everything that contains the word *smart* before its name is been operated with Artificial Intelligence.
True is the fact that we are not going to make robots that are self-aware like they were in the Star Wars movies in the next decade (with these capable scientists of this century, it is safe to talk only about the next decade and not more than that). However, we are already using Artificial Intelligence not only in the technological sectors but also in different sectors of society like medicine and healthcare. Even in Education. This might isn’t as mind-blowing as it seems in your Smartphone and you don’t expect the humanoid robots teaching you in your class. At least not in the next decade like we said. However, there are some cases where AI has been involved with our education system.
There are a lot of Projects where the Artificial Brains have been helping both the teachers and the students to get the maximum out in return from our education system.

Trial Of "Athens Three"

John Warwick Montgomery

In May, 1986, at the Court of Appeals in Athens, Dr. Montgomery successfully defended three evangelical missionaries who had been given three-and-a half year prison terms for "proselytizing." The President of the United States and many congressional leaders had written to the Greek government in support of the defendants. Following the trial, Dr. Montgomery was asked to deliver a lecture on the subject at the International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem (June 19, 1986). Here is the recording of that account of one of the major Christian human rights trials of our time.
