Summary

Date Palm Cultivation explores the rich history and sustainable practices of date palm farming, particularly in the arid regions of the Middle East and North Africa. It highlights the plant's journey from ancient Mesopotamia to modern agricultural techniques, emphasizing its cultural and economic importance. One intriguing aspect is the traditional use of intercropping, where date palms are planted alongside other crops to maximize land use and biodiversity, showcasing traditional agricultural practices. The book argues that ancient methods of desert oasis agriculture offer solutions for modern food security, especially in the face of environmental challenges such as water scarcity.

 
The book begins with the botany and ecology of the date palm and then progresses through historical cultivation methods and modern production. Examining traditional oasis systems, it focuses on water management and soil conservation techniques developed over centuries. It connects Earth Sciences Geography and History by integrating archaeological findings, historical texts, and contemporary research. Ultimately, the book demonstrates how traditional knowledge can be combined with modern technologies for sustainable date palm production.

A tragic death, a murder trial and a 170-year-old mystery – but what really happened?
Shortly after Maria Kirwan died in a lonely inlet on Ireland's Eye, it was decided that she had drowned accidentally during a day spent with her husband on the picturesque island. This inquest verdict appeared to conclude the melancholy events that consumed the fishing village of Howth, Co Dublin, in September 1852.
But not long afterwards, suspicion fell upon Maria's husband, William Burke Kirwan, as whispers of unspeakable cruelty, an evil character and a secret life rattled through the streets of Dublin. Investigations led to William's arrest and trial for murder.
The story swelled into one of the most bitterly divisive chapters in the dark annals of Irish criminal history. Yet questions remain: Does the evidence stand up? What role did the heavy hand of Victorian moral outrage play? Was William really guilty of murder, or did the ever-present 'moral facts' fill in gaps where hard proof was absent?
Now, this compelling modern analysis revisits the key evidence, asking sober questions about the facts, half-facts and fantasies buried within the yellowed pages of the Ireland's Eye case files.

Making Makers presents a comprehensive history of a seminal work of scholarship which has exerted a persistent attraction for scholars of war and strategy: Makers of Modern Strategy. It reveals the processes by which scholars conceived and devised the book, considering both successful and failed attempts to make and remake the work across the twentieth century, and illuminating its impact and legacy. It explains how and why these volumes took their particular forms, unearths the broader intellectual processes that shaped them, and reflects on the academic parameters of the study of war in the twentieth century. In presenting a complete genesis of the Makers project in the context of intellectual trends and historical contingency, this book reflects on a more complex and nuanced appraisal of the development of scholarship on war. In so doing it also offers contributions to the intellectual biographies of key figures in the history of war in the twentieth century, including Edward Mead Earle and Peter Paret. Making Makers contributes to an intellectual history of military history and contextualizes the place of history and historians in strategic and security studies. It is not only a history of the book, but a history of the networks of scholars involved in its creation, their careers, and lines of patronage, crossing international boundaries, from Europe to the USA, to Asia and Australia.
