Synopsis

Drone Warfare explores the profound impact of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) on modern warfare and international relations. It examines how drones have evolved from simple surveillance tools to sophisticated weapons platforms, significantly altering military operations and raising complex ethical questions. The book delves into the technological advancements that fueled the rise of drone warfare, the strategic shifts in military doctrine resulting from their use, and the ethical dilemmas surrounding targeted killings and civilian casualties.

 
One intriguing insight is how drones blur the lines between traditional warfare, counterterrorism, and law enforcement. The book offers a historical overview of UAV development and analyzes their use in various military campaigns, assessing both their effectiveness and unintended consequences. It progresses logically, starting with the technology and historical context, then examining drone use in military operations, and concluding with a discussion of ethical and legal challenges.

 
This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the strategic, ethical, and legal challenges posed by drone warfare, making it valuable for policymakers, military professionals, and anyone interested in global security and military history.

    A TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR 
    ‘An absolute joy to read and an early contender for every list of History Books of the Year’ Sunday Telegraph 
    ‘On nearly every page a random passage takes one’s breath away’ The Times 
    Have you ever heard the march of legions on a lonely country road?  
    For two thousand years, the roads the Romans built have determined the flow of ideas and folktales, where battles were fought and where pilgrims trod. Almost everyone in Britain lives close to a Roman road, if only we knew where to look. 
    In the beginning was Watling Street, the first road scored on the land when the invading Romans arrived on a cold and alien Kentish shore in 43 CE. Campaign roads rolled out to all points of the compass, forcing their way inland and as the Britons fell back, the roads pursued them relentlessly, carrying troops, supplies and military despatches. In the years of fighting that followed, as the legions pushed onwards across what is now England, into Wales and north into Scotland in search of booty, mineral wealth, land and tribute, they left behind a vast road network, linking marching camps and forts, changing the landscape, etching the story of the Roman advance into the face of the land, channelling our lives today. 
    Christopher Hadley, acclaimed author of Hollow Places, takes us on a lyrical journey into this past, retracing and searching for an elusive Roman road that sprang from one of the busiest road hubs in Roman Britain. His passage is not always easy. Time and nature have erased many clues; bridges rotted and whole woods grew across the route. Carters found an easier ford downstream, and people broke up its milestones to mend new paths. Year after year the heavy clay swallowed whole lengths of it; the once mighty road became a bridleway, an overgrown hollow-way, a parched mark in the soil. 
    Hadley leads us on a hunt to discover, in Hilaire Belloc’s phrase, ‘all that has arisen along the way’. Gathering traces of archaeology, history and landscape from poems, church walls, hag stones and cropmarks, oxlips, killing places, hauntings and immortals, and things buried too deep for archaeology, The Road is a mesmerising journey into two thousand years of history only now giving up its secrets. 
    In his latest work, The Road, Christopher Hadley delves into the historical and social aspects of Roman roads, enriching them with elements of mythology and folklore. His unique approach to historiography breathes new life into our understanding of past civilizations and their impact on our current geography. 
    For fans of Matthew Green (Shadowlands), Robert Macfarlane (Mountains of the Mind), Amy Jeffs (Storyland), Andrew Ziminski (Church Going), and Eleanor Parker (Winters in the World).

    What are we Teaching? Powerful...

    Written by Richard Bustin, What are we Teaching?Powerful knowledge and a capabilities curriculum offers a fresh perspective on curriculum design, arguing that subjects are key to enabling young people to develop the powerful knowledge needed to flourish in a complex modern world. Moving ideas beyond the 'traditional vs progressive' debates that have dominated education discourse, Richard Bustin challenges the overarching emphasis on exam performance at the expense of the broader benefits of subject knowledge and capabilities such as critical and creative thinking.
    What are we Teaching? explores curriculum debates in relation to the current school climate, considering factors such as knowledge-led education, teaching to the test, and the challenge of teacher retention and recruitment issues. It includes new research involving teachers in real schools engaging with powerful knowledge, and it prompts teachers to evaluate their responsibilities as 'curriculum makers'. The book invites teachers to consider why their subject specialism is important as part of a whole school curriculum vision, and a provides language with which to articulate that.
    Part One introduces the key theories on which the book is based, including different ways of making sense of knowledge, skills and values in the curriculum, powerful knowledge and educational capabilities. What are we Teaching?is research-based, using voices of real teachers who engaged with the question 'what makes your subject powerful knowledge for young people', and Part Two, which focuses on different subject areas, examines these testimonies. The final part offers advice on building a powerful knowledge and capabilities rich curriculum in schools. Each chapter includes a set of reflective questions which can be used as part of ITE training or staff CPD.
    Essential reading for teachers, senior and subject leaders and curriculum coordinators.
