The World's Most Dangerous Place
ISBN: 9780306821172 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Although the war in Afghanistan is now in its endgame, the West's struggle to eliminate the threat from Al Qaeda is far from over. A decade after 9/11, the war on terror has entered a new phase and, it would seem, a new territory. In early 2010, Al Qaeda operatives were reportedly "streaming" out of central Asia toward Somalia and the surrounding region. Somalia, now home to some of the world's most dangerous terrorists, was already the world's most failed state. Two decades of anarchy have spawned not just Islamic extremism but piracy, famine, and a seemingly endless clan-based civil war...

Canada and Ballistic Missile Defence, 1954-2009: Déjà Vu All Over Again
ISBN: 9780774817509 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since the mid-1950s, successive Canadian governments have grappled with the issue of Canada's participation in US ballistic missile defence programs. Until Paul Martin's Liberal government finally said no, policy-makers responded to US initiatives with fear and uncertainty as they endlessly debated the implications - at home and abroad - of participation. However, whether this is the end of the story remains to be seen. Drawing on previously classified government documents and interviews with senior officials, James Fergusson assesses Canada's policy deliberations and rationales for...

The World's Most Dangerous Place: Inside the Outlaw State of Somalia
ISBN: 9780552777803 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Award-winning journalist James Fergusson is among the few to have witnessed at first hand the devastating reality of life in the failed and desperate state of Somalia. This corner of the world has long been seen as the rotting and charred heart of Africa: a melting pot of crime, corruption, poverty, famine and civil war. And in recent years, whilst Somalia's lucrative piracy industry has grabbed the headlines, a darker, much deeper threat has come of age: the Al Qaida-linked militants Al Shabaab, and the dawn of a new phase in the global war on terror. Yet, paradoxically, Somalia's star is...

ISBN: 9781108080637 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Born in Scotland, James Fergusson (1808 86) spent ten years as an indigo planter in India before embarking upon a second career as an architectural historian. Despite his lack of formal training, he became an expert in the field of Indian architecture. The topography and temples of ancient Jerusalem also fascinated him. This 1865 collection of two lectures summarises his controversial topographical and architectural argument that the location where Constantine erected the original Holy Sepulchre was the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount. Fergusson then describes the Temple in its...

Rude Stone Monuments in All Countries
ISBN: 9781536177107 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. One of the most interesting of antiquarian studies is that which relates to the origin and purpose of the many ancient mounds and monuments found in almost every country. Antiquaries have never agreed whether the circles are temples or tombs or observatories, whether the dolmens are monuments of the dead or altars for sacrificing living men, and whether the mounds are tombs or law courts. This book compiles a Historical and Statistical account of the Rude Stone Monuments in all parts of the world.

History of Indian and Eastern Architecture
ISBN: 9781536176643 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The architecture of India Proper is treated in an exhaustive manner in this work.
