Synopsis

Weapons Technology explores the fascinating relationship between real-world military technology and its depiction in manga. The book examines how advancements in weapon systems, from firearms to cyber warfare and drone technology, are reimagined in popular manga series. By analyzing the technological aspects of both, the book reveals how manga often reflects, and potentially shapes, public perceptions of advanced military technology. The book provides a historical and technological context for understanding weapon systems, tracing their evolution and exploring the science behind them. It analyzes specific manga series, demonstrating how real-world technologies like advanced armor systems and futuristic combat scenarios are adapted into fictional narratives. This approach highlights the influence of actual military innovation on imaginative storytelling.

 
Organized into three parts, the book first introduces fundamental concepts of weapons technology. Next, it presents manga case studies that examine how these technologies are incorporated and adapted. Finally, it synthesizes these observations to reveal broader patterns of influence and discusses the ethical implications, making it valuable for anyone interested in the intersection of technology, military history, and culture.

    There were scarcely any events in the life of Thomas Hood. One condition there was of too potent determining importance—life-long ill health; and one circumstance of moment—a commercial failure, and consequent expatriation. Beyond this, little presents itself for record in the outward facts of this upright and beneficial career, bright with genius and coruscating with wit, dark with the lengthening and deepening shadow of death. - from the Biographical Introduction  by William Michael Rossetti of The Poetical Works of Thomas Hood

    A Manual of Buddhism 
    By Dudley Wright 
    Introduction by Professor Edmund J. Mills 
    Narrated by Oberon Michaels 
    Buddhism has a vast array of scriptures but a relatively small body of essential doctrines. In this short treatise the author presents a systematic introduction to Buddhist teaching, commencing with a discussion of the Noble Eightfold Path. Other topics include the Buddhist views of God and enlightenment, and the practice of Buddhism in the world of today. 
    Dudley Wright (1868 - 1949) wrote extensively on a wide variety of religious subjects and was also active as an investigator of the paranormal. He was a practising Freemason, who believed that all religions shared a common basis.

    Fear, rumor and white supremacist ideals clashed with an unprecedented labor action spawned an epic tragedy.  On November 23, 1887, white vigilantes gunned down unarmed black laborers and their families due to strikes on Louisiana sugar cane plantations. A future member of the U.S. House of Representatives was among the leaders of a mob that routed black men from houses and forced them to a stretch of railroad track, ordering them to run for their lives before gunning them down. According to a witness, the guns firing in the black neighborhoods sounded like a battle. Author and award-winning reporter John DeSantis uses correspondence, interviews and federal records to detail this harrowing true story.

    A 24‑lecture audio expedition into the world’s cartographic glitches—unrecognized states, disputed borders, legal voids, and places you can’t enter. We move from café‑tile sovereignty in Baarle, where a front door decides your country, to the 2015 India–Bangladesh enclave exchange, and the 2022 line cut across Hans Island’s ravine; from Ceuta and Melilla’s fences and tax codes to the Danube where hydrology argues with history; from the Bir Tawil/Hala’ib paradox to the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone and America’s twin sacrifice zones, Picher and Centralia.         
    We make the atlas legible: thalweg versus cadastre, uti possidetis and boundary commissions, counter‑enclaves and neutral roads, patrol lines, CBMs, and maritime geodesy. Trace Fergana’s water politics from Golovnoi gates to the Andijan/Kempir‑Abad bargain; India’s Himalayan hinge from Siachen and Galwan to Sugauli; the pastoral circuits and patrol lines that keep the Ilemi Triangle ambiguous; and the nested Nahwa‑in‑Madha‑in‑UAE trick.     
    Markets and politics are treated as geography constraints. Learn to read sovereignty by ferries, fuel receipts, and power bills; to separate romantic claims from operational control; to test what‑ifs—who could claim Bir Tawil, what shifts if Sir Creek moves—and to map chokepoints beyond lines: customs regimes, water releases, patrol logistics, recognition cycles. Then follow the consequences—duty‑free ledgers and bunkering margins, quotas and visas, surveillance and tragedy on the fence. Rigorous, narrative‑driven, and built for the intellectually ambitious, this course is an operator’s guide to the law, logistics, and lived frictions of a planet whose map won’t sit still.

    The universe is a vast, beautiful and strange place. We understand very little of it. Over the course of human history hundreds of bizarre phenomena have crossed our paths and most of them are still, to this day, mysteries to us. Everything from God to Bigfoot, from aliens to ghosts, remains relatively unexplained. We have travelled to other planets, invented artificial intelligence and managed to nearly destroy our own planet, and yet we continue to come across the weird and peculiar without any understanding of what it is we he have witnessed. In this audiobook we delve into some of the biggest mysteries and discover that there may be one underlying explanation for them all. One over-arching answer to all the unexplained, and the answer will blow your mind. 
     
    Prepare to go on a journey into the quantum world. Travel through alien worlds and into your own mind. We’re about to unlock the secrets of the universe.
