The author details the organisation and fortunes of all forces involved, painting a fascinating picture of the place and its peoples from 1881 98."

ISBN: 9780850452594 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. On April 24th, 1855, Colonel Carmichael Smyth held a parade of the ninety skirmishers of the 3rd Light Cavalry of the Bengal Army at Meerut, some 30 miles from Delhi.

As it was, the Mutiny witnessed several tragic and bloody events, from the original incident in Meerut to the horrifying siege of Cawnpore. Christopher Wilikinson-Latham details the history of the...

Seeking to get beyond the gridlock of apologetic arguments, John Wilkinson argues that while Christianity is not unreasonable, it is not merely reasonable either.

Insecticide Biochemistry and Physiology
ISBN: 9781489922144 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 768 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Only four short decades ago, the control of insect pests by means of chemicals was in its early infancy. The pioneers in the area consisted largely of a group of dedicated applied entomologists working to the best of their abilities with a very limited arsenal of chemicals that included inorganics (arsenicals, fluorides, etc.), some botanicals (nicotine), and a few synthetic organics (dinitro-o-cresol, organothiocyanates). Much of the early research was devoted to solving practical problems associated with the formulation and application of the few existing materials, and although the...

At Indian independence in 1947, the country's founders worried that the army India inherited-- conservative and dominated by officers and troops drawn disproportionately from a few "martial" groups--posed a real threat to democracy. They also saw the structure of the army, with its recruitment on the basis of caste and religion, as incompatible with their hopes for a new secular nation. India has successfully preserved its democracy, however, unlike many other colonial states that inherited imperial "divide and rule" armies, and unlike its neighbor Pakistan, which inherited part of...
