The U.S. Army/Marine Corps Counterinsurgency Field Manual
ISBN: 9780226841519 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When the U.S. military invaded Iraq, it lacked a common understanding of the problems inherent in counterinsurgency campaigns. It had neither studied them, nor developed doctrine and tactics to deal with them. It is fair to say that in 2003, most Army officers knew more about the U.S. Civil War than they did about counterinsurgency. The U.S. Army / Marine Corps Counterinsurgency Field Manual was written to fill that void. The result of unprecedented collaboration among top U.S. military experts, scholars, and practitioners in the field, the manual espouses an approach to combat...

The Cold War and American Science: The Military-Industrial-Academic Complex at Mit and Stanford
ISBN: 9780231079587 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. American science was as much the victim as the beneficiary of the Cold War. What science may have gained in funding, prestige, and political clout, it lost in independence and integrity. As one prominent scientist put it, the military bought American science on the installment plan, with fateful consequences for intellectual freedom. Military money and expectations blurred traditional distinctions between theory and practice, civilian and military, and claffified and unclassified, creating a new kind of American science that derived its character as well as its contracts from the Pentagon.

Watt's Perfect Engine: Steam and the Age of Invention
ISBN: 9780231131728 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As the inventor of the separate-condenser steam engine--that Promethean symbol of technological innovation and industrial progress--James Watt has become synonymous with the spirit of invention, while his last name has long been immortalized as the very measurement of power. But contrary to popular belief, Watt did not single-handedly bring about the steam revolution. His "perfect engine" was as much a product of late-nineteenth-century Britain as it was of the inventor's imagination. As one of the greatest technological developments in human history, the steam engine was a major...

From October 6 through 14, 1829, in a small village just outside Liverpool, England, ten thousand spectators gathered to witness one of the most remarkable events of the Industrial Age: a battle among locomotives that became known as the Rainhill Trials. Five machines were entered in the competition: the horse-powered Cycloped attained a top speed of only five miles per hour, while Perseverence--which looked like a giant iron bottle standing upright atop four wagon wheels--creaked along at a walking pace. But the three-way race between Robert Stephenson's Rocket, Timothy...
