Book Synopsis The Remnants of War by : John Mueller
Download or read book The Remnants of War written by John Mueller and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "War... is merely an idea, an institution, like dueling or slavery, that has been grafted onto human existence. It is not a trick of fate, a thunderbolt from hell, a natural calamity, or a desperate plot contrivance dreamed up by some sadistic puppeteer on high. And it seems to me that the institution is in pronounced decline, abandoned as attitudes toward it have changed, roughly following the pattern by which the ancient and formidable institution of slavery became discredited and then mostly obsolete."—from the Introduction War is one of the great themes of human history and now, John Mueller believes, it is clearly declining. Developed nations have generally abandoned it as a way for conducting their relations with other countries, and most current warfare (though not all) is opportunistic predation waged by packs—often remarkably small ones—of criminals and bullies. Thus, argues Mueller, war has been substantially reduced to its remnants—or dregs—and thugs are the residual combatants. Mueller is sensitive to the policy implications of this view. When developed states commit disciplined troops to peacekeeping, the result is usually a rapid cessation of murderous disorder. The Remnants of War thus reinvigorates our sense of the moral responsibility bound up in peacekeeping. In Mueller's view, capable domestic policing and military forces can also be effective in reestablishing civic order, and the building of competent governments is key to eliminating most of what remains of warfare.

As two near-centenarian citizens prepare for their annual birthday tea, a third vows to interrupt the proceedings with a bold declaration. The Remnants cartwheels rambunctiously through the lives of wood-splitters, garment-menders, and chervil farmers, while exposing an electrical undercurrent of secrets, taboos, and unfulfilled longings.

Download or read book Remnants written by and published by . This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 2000s, Chicago-based artist Julie Weber worked as a photo technician for a popular retail chain. The first wave of digital printers was making its way to one-hour photo-counters across the country. Dye-sublimination printers, which use heat to transfer dyes to high gloss photo paper, became common as stores endeavored to keep up with the changing consumer tide from film to digital. The printer ribbon consists of a spool of thin polyester coated in repeating blocks of cyan, magenta, and yellow dyes. The dyes transfer to the paper, layering to form a whole, color photograph. Each image sent to the printer leaves behind three impressions on the ribbon, one for each color, analogous to film negatives. When a ribbon reaches its printing capacity, it is full of image remnants. Weber created the imagery for Remnants by layering, folding, rolling, and creasing this cellophane-like material into new configurations. On one side, twelve individual images are presented. On the other side, the twelve pieces can be arranged to form a single, composite image.

Book Synopsis Tropical Forest Remnants by : William F. Laurance
Download or read book Tropical Forest Remnants written by William F. Laurance and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1997-06-21 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an increasingly fragmented world, with islands of natural habitat cast adrift in a sea of cleared, burned, logged, polluted, and otherwise altered lands. Nowhere are fragmentation and its devastating effects more evident than in the tropical forests. By the year 2000, more than half of these forests will have been cut, causing increased soil erosion, watershed destabilization, climate degradation, and extinction of as many as 600,000 species. Tropical Forest Remnants provides the best information available to help us understand, manage, and conserve the remaining fragments. Covering geographic areas from Southeast Asia and Australia to Madagascar and the New World, this volume summarizes what is known about the ecology, management, restoration, socioeconomics, and conservation of fragmented forests. Thirty-three papers present results of recent research as well as updates from decades-long projects in progress. Two final chapters synthesize the state of research on tropical forest fragmentation and identify key priorities for future work.
