Sinopsis

Ship Design explores the fascinating evolution of shipbuilding, from rudimentary wooden vessels to today's sophisticated, technologically advanced ships. It highlights how historical precedent, technological innovation, and the demands of maritime environments have shaped vessel design. Understanding buoyancy, stability, and resistance are foundational concepts discussed, alongside pivotal events like the advent of steam power and steel hulls. The book offers a comprehensive overview suitable for naval architects, historians, and anyone interested in maritime history and technology.

 
 The book argues that modern ship design results from blending historical lessons, empirical data, and computational modeling. It emphasizes that understanding past designs is crucial for informed innovation and sustainable maritime practices.

 
 The book begins with fundamental naval architecture concepts, progresses through key historical periods, and culminates in an analysis of contemporary challenges like fuel efficiency and autonomous vessels. It uses historical blueprints, performance data, and computational fluid dynamics to illustrate the impact of design choices.

    The Death of Liberalism

    The grave is dug, the headstone carved, the hearse idling out front. A once-potent political and cultural scourge of our time, Liberalism, is breathing its last?and loudest?breaths. 
    In this provocative postmortem, R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr. traces the dubious rise and inevitable fall of the deeply flawed Liberal-Progressive movement, which has culminated in the nation's first stealth socialist, President Barack Obama?the unwitting pallbearer for American Liberalism. While exposing this nonsensical worldview, Tyrrell also winsomely reaffirms the timeless values Liberalism has endeavored to undermine: free enterprise, personal liberty, limited government, empiricism, reason, and common sense. Ultimately, Tyrrell welcomes conservatives, moderates, independents, and the heretofore apolitical to step forward at this crucial juncture, and take the final steps necessary to administer Liberalism's last rites. 
     "From Harry Truman to Ed Koch to McGovern, Liberalism has been in decline. With Obama, Liberalism is dead. Now comes Crony Capitalism. This is a hilarious and profound book?especially because Tyrrell sees the value of Fox News nd Talk Radio." ?Sean Hannity, author of Conservative Victory, and radio host of The Sean Hannity Show and Fox News Channel's Hannity. 
    "R. Emmett Tyrrell . . . chronicles with growing joyfulness the high points of Liberalism's demise until we get to 2010 and Liberalism's lurch into the grave. . . A wonderful read and a fitting send-off to a very dreary ideology." ?Mark Levin, host of The Mark Levin Radio Show and author of the bestsellers Liberty and Tyranny and Ameritopia 
    "The Death of Liberalism is a dashing, sharp, well-argued and succinct tract for the times. Mr. Tyrrell is a controversialist of stature, a polemicist of robust energy and a man who knows how to present his case with power and precision."?Paul Johnson, author of Modern Times, Intellectuals, and A History of the American People
