Download or read book Short Story Press Presents The Tronik Gambit written by Short Story Press and published by Short Story Press. This book was released on 2012-07-24 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short Story Press Presents The Tronik Gambit by Salim Farhat The Tronik Gambit is the story of a rag-tag group of air pirates. Like their older, sea-borne brethren, they spent years terrorizing aerial shipping, raiding ships on the seas with float-planes, and robbing towns and remote outposts on land, and using their machines to make the fastest getaways imaginable and were a huge thorn in the side of the authorities. Operating from a massive flying aircraft carrier, and using clouds, mist, and forbidding terrain to hide their presence and move around with impunity. Their weapons and machines are makeshift, and purchased from corrupt industrialists, and created entirely from scratch with nothing but stolen parts and material, or outright stolen from the legitimate governments of the world. Amid all this, there is a massive war going on between the Drakameer and the Ukarin, two nations with a history of bitterness that runs so deeps that neither side has any qualms against using criminals, madmen, or psychopaths against each other. While they’re still officially wanted, air pirates were used to do thing that would be too difficult for them to explain to their own citizens. For all their success, most of the gang has grown weary of their life on the edge and yearn to go back to the society that they had turned their backs on, so long ago. So they use their connections with some shady individuals in the Ukarin military, men who have no qualms selling their country’s secrets for a fistful of cash and some favors. Discovering that the ruthless General Tronik, a psychopath with a pathological need to undertake military ventures that border on the suicidal, they realize they not only have their ticket to securing their pardon, but to ending their careers with the biggest bang imaginable. All while taking on the most monstrous war machine they had ever produced: the flying battleship Briesmonis. Short Story Press publishes short stories written by everyday writers.

Book Synopsis Deep Maneuver by : Jack D Kern Editor
Download or read book Deep Maneuver written by Jack D Kern Editor and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 5, Deep Maneuver: Historical Case Studies of Maneuver in Large-Scale Combat Operations, presents eleven case studies from World War II through Operation Iraqi Freedom focusing on deep maneuver in terms of time, space and purpose. Deep operations require boldness and audacity, and yet carry an element of risk of overextension - especially in light of the independent factors of geography and weather that are ever-present. As a result, the case studies address not only successes, but also failure and shortfalls that result when conducting deep operations. The final two chapters address these considerations for future Deep Maneuver.
Download or read book Evil Media written by Matthew Fuller and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A philosophical manual of media power for the network age. Evil Media develops a philosophy of media power that extends the concept of media beyond its tried and trusted use in the games of meaning, symbolism, and truth. It addresses the gray zones in which media exist as corporate work systems, algorithms and data structures, twenty-first century self-improvement manuals, and pharmaceutical techniques. Evil Media invites the reader to explore and understand the abstract infrastructure of the present day. From search engines to flirting strategies, from the value of institutional stupidity to the malicious minutiae of databases, this book shows how the devil is in the details. The title takes the imperative “Don't be evil” and asks, what would be done any differently in contemporary computational and networked media were that maxim reversed. Media here are about much more and much less than symbols, stories, information, or communication: media do things. They incite and provoke, twist and bend, leak and manage. In a series of provocative stratagems designed to be used, Evil Media sets its reader an ethical challenge: either remain a transparent intermediary in the networks and chains of communicative power or become oneself an active, transformative medium.

Book Synopsis Crossing the Rubicon by : Michael C. Ruppert
Download or read book Crossing the Rubicon written by Michael C. Ruppert and published by New Society Publisher. This book was released on 2004-09-15 with total page 773 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed investigative reporter and author of Confronting Collapse examines the global forces that led to 9/11 in this provocative exposé. The attacks of September 11, 2001 were accomplished through an amazing orchestration of logistics and personnel. Crossing the Rubicon examines how such a conspiracy was possible through an interdisciplinary analysis of petroleum, geopolitics, narco-traffic, intelligence and militarism—without which 9/11 cannot be understood. In reality, 9/11 and the resulting "War on Terror" are parts of a massive authoritarian response to an emerging economic crisis of unprecedented scale. Peak Oil—the beginning of the end for our industrial civilization—is driving the elites of American power to implement unthinkably draconian measures of repression, warfare and population control. Crossing the Rubicon is more than a story of corruption and greed. It is a map of the perilous terrain through which we are all now making our way.

This approach makes the book ideal for the college classroom as well as the writer’s bookshelf, and unique in the field, combining the pragmatic accessibility of popular writer’s handbooks, with a wider, more scholarly vision of theory and research.
