Sinopsis

"Secret Projects" uncovers the clandestine history of U.S. military and scientific advancements, revealing the surprising origins of technologies now integral to modern warfare and surveillance. Delving into classified endeavors like stealth technology and advanced surveillance programs, the book highlights how the Cold War's intense rivalry fueled rapid innovation.For instance, the development of stealth aircraft, such as the F-117 Nighthawk, showcases both technological breakthroughs and the complex political considerations driving these secret projects. The book argues that these covert initiatives, while intended to enhance national security, have blurred the lines between defense and surveillance, raising critical questions about privacy and accountability.Exploring topics such as experimental aircraft and satellite surveillance, it provides a fact-based account, drawing on declassified documents and firsthand accounts to present a balanced perspective. The book begins by tracing the historical evolution of key concepts then progresses into specific projects, ending with an analysis of their impact on warfare, intelligence gathering, and civil liberties. This approach makes it a valuable resource for anyone interested in military history, technology, and the hidden forces shaping national security policies.

    The Enemy Harassed -...

    In late December 1776, the American War of Independence appeared to be on its last legs. General George Washington's continental forces had been reduced to a shadow of their former strength, and the British Army had chased them across the Delaware River into Pennsylvania. Desperate times call for desperate measures, however, and George Washington responded to this crisis with astonishing audacity. On Christmas night 1776, he recrossed the Delaware as a nor'easter churned up the coast, burying his small detachment under howling sheets of snow and ice. Undaunted, they attacked a Hessian brigade at Trenton, New Jersey, taking the German auxiliaries by complete surprise. Then, only three days later, Washington struck again, crossing the Delaware, slipping away from the British at Trenton, and attacking the Redcoats at Princeton. 
     
     
     
    The British, now back on their heels, retreated toward New Brunswick as Washington's reinvigorated force followed them north into Jersey. Over the next eight months, Washington's continentals and the state militias of New Jersey would go head-to-head with the British in a multitude of battles, eventually forcing the British to flee New Jersey by sea. In this captivating narrative of the American War of Independence, Jim Stempel brings to life one of the most violent, courageous, yet virtually forgotten periods of the Revolutionary War.

    GE2020: an election that should not be forgotten for yielding startling outcomes, including the appointment of the first Leader of the Opposition. 
     
     
    Voting in a Time of Change is part of a longitudinal study by editors Kevin YL Tan and Terence Lee, who have been assembling trenchant analyses of each General Election by leading academics and commentators since GE2011. Their long game makes possible specific and unique insights. Of GE2020, this is what they have to say: 
     
     
    “The major political shift in Singapore that started in 2011 is marching on, even amidst a Covid-19 pandemic that was to have been a great disrupter. Whether we call this a ‘New Normal’ – as many did back in 2011 – or otherwise is not as important as the momentum for change that has built up since then. Covid-19 thus became a political backdrop to a social and political shift that was merely searching for a catalyst.” 
     
     
    What insights and lessons can we carry forward to the next General Elections? This is an indispensable milestone publication for citizens who wish to commit to even more informed choices, and for political observers who are keeping close tabs on the evolution of our political landscape.
