Sinopsis

Tactical Retreats explores the underappreciated military maneuver of the tactical retreat, arguing it's not just an admission of defeat but a strategic tool. The book reveals how planned withdrawals have saved armies and set the stage for future victories by conserving resources and exploiting enemy weaknesses. From influencing battlefield morale to impacting strategic decision-making, the book highlights the crucial role of command structures in maintaining cohesion during a withdrawal. 

 
The book traces the evolution of retreat strategies from ancient warfare to modern conflicts, adapting to changes in weaponry and tactics. It examines historical examples, such as German withdrawals on the Eastern Front and the Chosin Reservoir campaign, dissecting the strategic context, tactical execution, and consequences of each retreat. 

 
By uniquely synthesizing quantitative data with qualitative assessments, Tactical Retreats offers a balanced perspective on military history. The book unfolds by establishing a theoretical framework, then analyzing specific historical examples and concluding with the relevance of these lessons to contemporary military challenges. It emphasizes that a well-executed retreat can be as decisive as an attack, challenging conventional wisdom and providing insights for military professionals and those interested in strategic decision-making.

    An investigation into the deaths of six Aboriginal women and the police responses that left families reeling 
      
    'If you think it's hard being a white woman in Australia, try being a black woman.' These were the words that set a team of journalists at the Adelaide Advertiser on an investigation into the tragic deaths of six young Indigenous women. 
    It was Courtney Hunter-Hebberman who uttered those words, up on stage at an International Women's Day event. A shocking number of Indigenous women die every year by murder or suicide, and Courtney's daughter, Rose, was one of them. Rose's apparent death by suicide at nineteen, in a backyard shed, had left her mother craving answers - answers the police seemed unable to give her. 
    Inspired by Courtney's courage and grief, the Advertiser team hoped to shed light on Rose's death and put Courtney's mind at rest. But what they found, as their investigation of one death rolled into another five, was disturbing. Lack of urgency, sloppy searches, poor communication, and assumptions by police were just some of the problems . 
    As the team probed further, even bigger questions about whether Indigenous Australians, especially women, are heard when they speak. 
    Based on the podcast Dying Rose, this is a compelling look at young Indigenous women's vulnerability to danger, and how, when their lives are cut short, their families are left to cope with a grief seemingly compounded by indifference.

    A surprising look at the 28 Catholic radicals who raided a draft board in 1971—and got away with it. 
     
    When the FBI arrested twenty-eight people in connection to a break-in at a Camden, New Jersey, draft board in 1971, the Bureau celebrated. The case should have been an easy victory for the department—the perpetrators had been caught red-handed attempting to destroy conscription documents for draftees into the Vietnam War. But the results of the trial surprised everyone, and in the process shook the foundations of American law, politics, and religion. 
     
    In Spiritual Criminals, Michelle M. Nickerson shares a complex portrait of the Camden 28, a passionate group of grassroots religious progressives who resisted both their church and their government as they crusaded against the Vietnam War. Founded by priests, nuns, and devout lay Catholics, members of this coalition accepted the risks of felony convictions as the cost of challenging the nation’s military-industrial complex and exposing the illegal counterintelligence operations of the FBI. By peeling away the layers of political history, theological traditions, and the Camden 28’s personal stories, Nickerson reveals an often-unseen spiritual side of the anti-war movement. At the same time, she probes the fractures within the group, detailing important conflicts over ideology, race, sex, and gender that resonate in the church and on the political Left today.

    From the nursery to the prison, from the clinic to the commune, Mother Media tells the story of how we arrived at our contemporary understanding of what a mother is and how understandings of "bad" mothering formed our contemporary panics about "bad" media. In this book, leading historian of psychology Hannah Zeavin examines twentieth-century pediatric, psychological, educational, industrial, and economic norms around mediated mothering and technologized parenting. The book charts the crisis of the family across the twentieth century and the many ingenious attempts to remediate nursemaid and mother via speculative technologies and screen media. 
     
     
     
    Growing out of her previous award-winning book The Distance Cure, which considered technologized care, the book lays bare the contradictions of techno-parenting and how it relates to conceptions of "maternal fitness," medical redlining, and surveillance of children, parents, and other caregivers. The author offers narratives of parenting in its extremity (for example, Shaken Baby Syndrome) and its ostensible banality (for example, the Nanny Cam) and how the two are often intertwined. Ultimately, Zeavin grapples with a simple contradiction: technology is seen and judged as harmful in domestic and educational spaces, even as it is a saving grace in the unending labor of raising a family.

    "One who is ignorant of scientific knowledge of the spirit soul does not look inside the body to find happiness in the soul; instead, he goes outside to search for happiness." " 
     
    The human body is rarely achieved and although temporary like other bodies, it is meaningful because in human life one can perform devotional service. Even a slight amount of sincere devotional service can give one complete perfection." 
     
    "Krishna is the knower of everything because He does not see outside in but inside out. Gopinathji sees the Motivations, Intentions & Aspiration within our heart."
