Beschreibung

Air Raid Facts explores the multifaceted impacts of aerial warfare on urban environments and civilian populations, offering a comprehensive analysis of its historical evolution and ethical considerations. The book examines the strategic and tactical development of air raids, highlighting how military objectives often overshadow the devastating consequences for non-combatants. Readers will gain insight into the psychological and societal repercussions experienced by those caught in the crossfire, as well as the lasting effects on urban infrastructure. 

 
The book's approach involves a detailed examination of case studies, ranging from the Blitz in London to strategic bombing campaigns in Vietnam and the Persian Gulf War, providing a historical analysis of each event. Each case study dissects the military objectives, methods employed, the immediate destruction, and the long-term social, economic, and environmental consequences. Through careful use of official military records, eyewitness accounts, and statistical data, the book challenges traditional narratives of military history and pushes for a more nuanced ethical consideration of aerial warfare.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the fundamental principles of air raid strategy and technology, then transitions into specific historical events, concluding with an analysis of the evolving legal and ethical frameworks surrounding aerial warfare. This journey provides readers with a deeper understanding of the realities of modern warfare and the ongoing debates surrounding the proportionality of force and the protection of civilian populations.

    Authoritarianism is one of the buzzwords of our age. But what is it exactly? This Very Short Introduction provides a comprehensive overview of the world of authoritarian regimes, including military, single-party, and personalist regimes. It considers how understandings of authoritarianism have evolved over time, as well as the curious fact that many authoritarian regimes today hold elections. Drawing on examples from Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East, James Loxton examines the life cycle of authoritarian regimes. How are they born? What challenges do they face during life? Why do they die? The author shows how factors such as natural resource wealth and cross-border collaboration can contribute to authoritarian durability. He also highlights the disturbing fact that even when authoritarian regimes collapse, voters often use their newfound democratic rights to send former authoritarian officials back to office.

    The overturning of Roe V. Wade will have long-term and indelible consequences on American society. 
    The purpose of this book is to be part of the on-going conversations. 
    Perfect or not, Roe was working for America. Consequently, it did not need to be “fixed”. 
    The ignorance of attempting to fix it when the ramifications were unknown, has resulted in chaos, confusion, inconvenience and trauma for women who need abortions. In many cases viability of the embryo dictates an abortion. 
    Also important is the fact that medical decisions were taken out of the hands of physicians. That is a “No, no”! 
    The book also addresses the issue of poor ethics in the Supreme Court as this was also a factor in overturning Roe, as was arrogance.

    When ships under the command of white Europeans first sailed into the Delaware Bay in 1609, southeastern Pennsylvania's documented history of the strange and unusual began. This book tackles seven true "dark histories" from Chester and Delaware counties, which include tales of murder, witchcraft, cannibalism, tragic accidents, and macabre events that actually happened in the Greater Philadelphia region. All stories are meticulously researched and placed within the greater context of Pennsylvania and world history. For example, the murder of three children by an indentured servant is placed within the context the kidnapping of children into servitude in England for sale to the Americas. The trial and execution of a woman for killing her infants is placed within the context of the rights of women in early America and how the court system failed them. The treatment of witchcraft is placed within the larger relationship of Quakers with the supernatural in Pennsylvania. This is not a book of ghost stories; this is an exploration of the real events that led people to believe in ghosts. It aims to strike a balance between a colloquial work that is accessible by a variety of listeners, and an solid academic work.
