Synopsis

Railway Warfare examines the pivotal role of railways in military history, revealing how this technology, initially designed for commerce, became a critical weapon influencing conflict outcomes globally. The book emphasizes that effective railway utilization often determined victory or defeat, exploring how railways shaped military strategy through logistics, troop deployments, and supply chains. Intriguingly, the ability to efficiently move resources became a decisive factor, transforming ad-hoc use of commercial lines into dedicated military railways.

 
The book analyzes the vulnerability of railways as strategic targets, covering the evolution of defensive and offensive tactics such as armored trains, sabotage, and aerial interdiction. Beginning with early uses in the American Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War, the narrative progresses to analyze the expansion of military railway systems in colonial conflicts, their importance in both World Wars, and their continued relevance post-World War II, including an assessment of current and future roles. This study adopts a holistic approach, blending technical and strategic perspectives, and shows how control of rail networks consistently provided a strategic advantage, influencing the scale and outcome of conflicts.

Capitalism and Crises - How to...

Colin Mayer

The world is encountering multiple crises—climate, droughts, floods, energy, food, and pandemics, to name a few. We have a problem, this is the solution. 
 
 
 
Capitalism and Crises is about how capitalism can fix them—how it can solve not cause them. The reason why it has caused them is that we have misconceived the nature of our capitalist system. We have failed to understand the key institution at the heart of it—business—and as a result we have allowed it to cause as well as solve problems. This book describes why this has happened and what needs to change to address it. 
 
 
 
Drawing on history, philosophy, psychology, and biology as well economics, law, and finance, Mayer describes what has gone wrong, what needs to change, and how to fix it. He sets out the big challenges that capitalism must address and how it should set about doing that, and discusses how financial institutions should be at the heart of this, and how the public sector can work with the private on a common purpose of solving problems and creating shared prosperity. Capitalism and Crises provides an inspiring and motivational roadmap of how we as practitioners, policymakers, consumers, employees, communities, students, and citizens of the world can together tackle the challenges of the twenty-first century—to flourish and survive.
