Synopsis

Winter War explores the pivotal 105-day conflict between Finland and the Soviet Union, demonstrating how this David-versus-Goliath struggle significantly shaped World War II. The book analyzes military strategies, global reactions, and the lasting impact of this often-overlooked war, revealing how Finnish resistance exposed critical flaws in the Red Army. This resistance, against Soviet expansionism, emboldened Hitler to launch Operation Barbarossa. The book challenges traditional narratives by highlighting the Winter War's crucial role in shaping the trajectory of World War II. It examines the contrasting military tactics used by both sides, the diplomatic maneuvering, and the influence on Hitler's perception of Soviet military strength. The book progresses methodically, first introducing key players and the pre-war climate, then dissecting military campaigns and diplomatic reactions, culminating in an analysis of the war's propaganda value. Drawing from military archives, diplomatic cables, and personal accounts, Winter War offers a fresh perspective by focusing on the strategic and political ramifications of the conflict. It showcases innovative concepts in winter warfare and how a smaller army withstood a larger power, providing valuable insights for military strategists and those interested in international relations.

    A Grammar Series That Uses the Functional Approach 
    
    KEY FEATURES 
    - Functional approach to grammar teaching, using exemplars to illustrate the usage before defining the structure and rules 
    - Vocabulary taught through language-in-use to build the learners’ vocabulary through use rather than memorisation of rules 
    - Contemporary topics to inculcate 21-century skills amongst learners 
    - Use of literature to help learners understand how grammar is used in text 
    - A comprehension section comprising texts from different genres so that learners may relate grammar to different types of works produced in English 
    - Phonics in Grades 1 and 2 to teach the very basis of language 
    - Uniquely stylised illustrations 
    - Activities such as puzzles, crosswords, word grids and games to aid the facilitator in using the concept of ‘flipped classroom’ 
    - Periodic tests to help the learners self-assess the acquisition of concepts 
    - Digital component to cater to a technology-driven classroom 
    
    DESCRIPTION: 
    My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.

    This exciting and groundbreaking fiction anthology showcases a number of new and emerging 2SQ (Two-Spirit and queer Indigenous) writers from across Turtle Island. These visionary authors show how queer Indigenous communities can bloom and thrive through utopian narratives that detail the vivacity and strength of 2SQness throughout its plight in the maw of settler colonialism's histories. 
     
     
     
    Here, listeners will discover bio-engineered AI rats, transplanted trees in space, the rise of a 2SQ resistance camp, a primer on how to survive Indigiqueerly, virtual reality applications, motherships at sea, and the very bending of space-time continuums queered through NDN time. Love after the End demonstrates the imaginatively queer Two-Spirit futurisms we have all been dreaming of since 1492.

    "The author has done an outstanding job of making the colorful Georgian world come alive in all its contradictory, bawdy, and utterly fascinating glory." —Britain Express 
     
     
      
    Could you successfully be a Georgian? Find yourself immersed in the pivotal world of Georgian England, exciting times to live in. Everything was booming—the Industrial Revolution, the Enlightenment, and the nascent Empire—in an era inhabited by Mary Shelley, the Romantic poets, and their contemporaries. Find everything you need to know in order to survive as a time traveler from today, undetected among the ordinary people: how to dress, behave yourself in public, earn a living, and find somewhere to live. Just as importantly, you will be given advice on how to stay on the right side of the law, and how to avoid getting seriously ill. 
     
     
      
    Monica Hall creatively evokes this bygone era, filling this book with all aspects of daily life within the period, calling upon diaries, illustrations, letters, poetry, prose, eighteenth century laws, and archives. This detailed account intimately explores the ever-changing lives of those who lived through Britain's imperial prowess, the birth of modern capitalism, and the upheaval of the industrial revolution, major political reform, and class division.

    The Syrian Civil War - Conflict...

    The Syrian Civil War, which began in 2011, stands as one of the most devastating conflicts in modern history, reshaping not only Syria but the entire Middle East and the international political landscape. The war has drawn in numerous global powers, each with their own motivations, and has sparked a humanitarian crisis of unparalleled scale. This conflict is not merely a battle between the Assad regime and opposition groups but a complex web of local, regional, and international rivalries, ideologies, and geopolitical interests. As the fighting continues, the war has resulted in staggering human loss, displacement, and destruction, leaving a country in ruins and millions of people displaced across borders. 
    At the heart of the Syrian Civil War lies a struggle for power, with multiple factions vying for control over a fractured nation. The Assad regime, backed by Russia and Iran, has maintained a firm grip on large parts of the country. Meanwhile, various opposition groups, initially united by a common goal of overthrowing the regime, soon fractured into competing factions with differing ideologies, including Islamic extremists and Kurdish forces. The conflict became a battleground for regional and global powers, each seeking to shape Syria’s future in line with their own strategic interests. The United States, Turkey, and other Western powers became deeply involved, often supporting rebel groups or fighting alongside Kurdish forces in the fight against the Islamic State (ISIS), further complicating an already volatile situation. 
    The humanitarian impact of the Syrian Civil War has been catastrophic. With over half of the pre-war population displaced and millions of civilians killed, the war has created one of the largest refugee crises in history. The fighting has destroyed critical infrastructure, making it difficult to deliver aid to those in need, while the global response has often been inadequate.
