Book excerpt: The Holocaust, civil war in Bosnia, drug wars in the cities, random violence in schools, streets, and homes - such events and their aftermath pose special problems for mental health professionals, educators, and others who must help children make sense of acts that endanger them physically and psychically. In this book, edited by Drs. Roberta J. Apfel and Bennett Simon, mental health professionals share their knowledge, experiences, and hopefulness in working with children exposed to war and violence. The result is a moving history of young lives affected by war, persecution, and communal violence, and an invaluable resource for anyone working with children subjected to such traumas. The contributors to this book - who include psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers, all with direct experience working with children who are victims of war and violence - address the ethics involved in working with children in war zones, children's development under circumstances of war or violence, post-traumatic stress disorder and other stress reactions, refugee children, "survivor guilt," interventions and treatments, and the emotional health of the caretakers. The book includes case studies on children of war in Kuwait, on a program involving children of Holocaust survivors and children of Nazi perpetrators, and on the Child Development-Community Policing Program in New Haven.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of people around the world are maimed and killed by landmines and unexploded ammunition every year. International law classifies landmines as 'evil in themselves', but minefields are expressions of 'political minefields' that create them and allow them to persist. In this travelogue through Iraq, Laos, Cambodia, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Sudan, South Sudan and New York City, we follow Matthew Bolton's quest for solutions to the landmine crisis and emerging autonomous weapons. Throughout his journey we meet deminers, paramilitaries, journalists, mercenaries, diplomats, aid workers, and campaigners working in and around the minefields. It is a must-read for those working to alleviate the devastation of war.

Book excerpt: An international business expert helps you understand and navigate cultural differences in this insightful and practical guide, perfect for both your work and personal life. Americans precede anything negative with three nice comments; French, Dutch, Israelis, and Germans get straight to the point; Latin Americans and Asians are steeped in hierarchy; Scandinavians think the best boss is just one of the crowd. It's no surprise that when they try and talk to each other, chaos breaks out. In The Culture Map, INSEAD professor Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain in which people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work harmoniously together. She provides a field-tested model for decoding how cultural differences impact international business, and combines a smart analytical framework with practical, actionable advice.

Download or read book Negotiating Minefields written by Leon V. Sigal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against all odds, the International Campaign to Ban Landmines helped to enact a global treaty banning antipersonnel mines in 1997. For that achievement it was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In this volume, Leon Sigal shows how a handful of NGOs with almost no mass base got more than 100 countries to outlaw a weapon that their armies had long used. It is a story of intrigue and misperception, of clashing norms and interests, of contentious bureaucratic and domestic politics. It is also a story of effective leadership, of sustained commitment to a cause, of alliances between campaigners and government officials, of a US senator who championed the ban, and of the skilful use of the news media. Despite this monumental effort, the campaign failed to get the United States to sign the treaty. Drawing on extensive internal documents and interviews with US officials and ban campaigners, Sigal tells the story of the in-fighting inside the Clinton administration, in the Pentagon, and within the ban campaign itself that led to this major setback for an otherwise unprecedented, successful global effort. Negotiating Minefields will be of interest to students and scholars of military and strategic studies and politics and international relations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MINEFIELDS IN THE MARKETPLACE takes a compelling look at six ethical “minefields” in which many Christian businessmen and women get caught: • Ethical compromise • Materialism • Dealing with power • Sexual temptation • Neglected relationships • Spiritual stagnation. Author James Pearson says he has "seen one or more of these bring a well-meaning Christian down – careers ruined, reputations lost, and marriages destroyed." For readers who want to succeed in business and still serve their Lord and Savior, this book provides the spiritual wisdom, guidance, and direction necessary for getting safely through the minefields.

Book excerpt: Minefields is a compelling exploration of a foreign correspondent's life - proof of Hugh's belief that 'if you go looking for trouble, you'll probably find it'. Over nearly forty years as a journalist and foreign correspondent, Hugh Riminton has been shot at, blown up, threatened with deportation and thrown in jail. He has reported from nearly fifty countries, witnessed massacres in Africa, wars and conflicts on four continents, and every kind of natural disaster. It has been an extraordinary life. From a small-town teenager with a drinking problem, cleaning rat cages for a living, to a multi-award-winning international journalist reporting to an audience of 300 million people, Hugh has been a frontline witness to our times. From genocide in Africa to the Indian Ocean tsunami, from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to slave-buying in Sudan, Hugh has seen the best and worst of human behaviour. In Australia, he has covered political dramas, witnessed the Port Arthur massacre and the Thredbo disaster and broken a major national scandal. His work helped force half a dozen government inquiries. His story is entertaining, deeply personal and quietly wise. 'An impressive career. His story is a triumph of substance over style.' Sydney Morning Herald 'Hugh is an icon of Australian journalism' Michael Ware, former Iraq correspondent for TIME and CNN

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental information is important for successful planning and execution of naval operations. A thorough understanding of environmental variability greatly increases the likelihood of mission success. To ensure that naval forces have the most up-to-date capabilities, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) has an extensive environmental research program. This research, to be of greatest use to the warfighter, needs to be directed towards assisting and solving battlefield problems. To increase research community understanding of the operational demands placed on naval operators and to facilitate discussion between these two groups, the National Research Council's (NRC) Ocean Studies Board (OSB), working with ONR and the Office of the Oceanographer of the Navy, convened five previous symposia on tactical oceanography. Oceanography and Mine Warfare examines the following issues: (1) how environmental data are used in current mine warfare doctrine, (2) current procedures for in situ collection of data, (3) the present capabilities of the Navy's oceanographic community to provide supporting information for mine warfare operations, and (4) the ability of oceanographic research and technology developments to enhance current mine warfare capabilities. This report primarily concentrates on the importance of oceanographic data for mine countermeasures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a brilliant account of how leadership is made." - Andy McNab This is the true story of 21 young men desperately trying to survive the most brutal leadership course of modern times. A throw back to the Highland Fieldcraft Training Center, the revolutionary brain child of Lord Rowallan during the Second World War, this fascinating insight explains the extraordinary lengths Sandhurst goes to in pursuit of generating the world’s greatest military leaders. No one could have known that the intensity of their training was coincidentally little more than a prelude to a decade of war in Afghanistan and Iraq where attrition rates became comparable to those reached during the Second World War. This captivating story is full of emotion brought on by physical and mental endeavor that leads to success and failure. This intimate and revealing story of camaraderie is the first of its kind. But learning how to lead subordinates during the darkest of hours, living in the most austere of environments comes at a price. Unconventional and at times controversial, this is the only authentic account of life in Rowallan Company Sandhurst at a time when the world teetered on the brink of war with insurgents and dictators armed with weapons of mass destruction.

Book excerpt: Decisions, decisions, decisions. Since our personal decision-making does have consequences, we all struggle making good decisions. In reality, what we believe affects every area of our actions and lifestyle, including our decision-making process. For that reason the Bible must be the centerpiece for Christian decision-making! In our ministry, we have observed many good Christian people struggle with life due to their poor decisions. You don't have to live a life of regrets if you will just apply God's Word to your daily decision processes. The wise King Solomon recognized this problem in his own life. Therefore, early in life he sought to learn wisdom and understanding with his whole heart. Later in life, as he watched his own children grow he became burdened with their lack of wisdom. God used this burden to inspire King Solomon to write the book of Proverbs for his children's benefit. We can profit greatly if we understand and give heed to these same proverbs. After earning his BA degree from Tennessee Temple College, he furthered his training and earned a BD degree from Temple Baptist Theological Seminary in 1972. While recovering from heart surgery in 1991, he completed the requirements and received his PhD. in Biblical Studies from Emmanuel Baptist University. He was ordained at Canton Baptist Temple of Canton, Ohio in August 1972. He began his first pastorate at Lakeshore Baptist Church of Mentor, Ohio. Over the next 36 years he pastored churches in Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia, and Indiana. Since November of 1993, he has been the senior Pastor of Northwest Baptist Church of Indianapolis, Indiana. He and his wife Sue have four grown children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains poems and stories that carry meaning. Throughout the years, I have written hundreds and hundreds of pieces. You don't see them all because I was scared of what everyone else thought. After each notebook or paper was written, I burned it in my grandpa's fireplace. As I had gotten older, I realized I never wanted to burn away my words anymore. Everyone deserves to be heard, no matter how small the words are. These poems and short stories are all gonna be different. They all bear various emotions and results, as life does too. Love, sadness, loneliness, and happiness are the core conscience in the human body. I had difficulty separating those emotions, so I had developed a fake smile for whenever I felt not okay. I hope this shines a little understanding of what was in a little-troubled human being's mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late-19th century, with the advances in technology and the increase in America's economic stature, a new round of fortification building began in the United States and its overseas territories.

This book provides a concise introduction to the design, development and purpose of American coastal defenses in the "modern" era (1885–1950), a period defined by the use of concrete, steel, and powerful breech-loading rifles. It covers the emplacements, weaponry, equipment, and people that defended their country in times of great change and uncertainty.
