War and Power
'Phillips O'Brien is one of the keenest observers of modern strategy, and his new book takes a deep historical look at the evolution of warfare and its implications for conflicts like the ongoing one in Ukraine' Francis Fukuyama
--------------------
War and power are two of the most-widely discussed issues in all of human history, and yet they are, time and again, misunderstood - often disastrously so.
Whilst we might think the outcome of war is determined by so-called 'Great Powers' who dominate their opponents with their impressive size and military prowess, the reality of modern conflict, as renowned strategic historian Professor Phillips Payson O'Brien demonstrates, is very different. He urges us instead to look for 'Full Spectrum Powers'.
For if we are considering how powerful a nation is and who will win a war, we need to think less about weapons, and more about the economies and societies that produce them; less about individual battles, and more about sustaining campaigns and alliances in which states operate.
Using fascinating examples from the late 19th century to the present day, War and Power explains how misunderstanding war and power has led to terrible, even preventable conflicts - such as the war in Ukraine - and how more accurate analysis can help us consider the potential conflict between the US and China.
War and Power provides a bold new way of understanding the dangerous world around us.
The Fractured Age
The tectonic plates of the global order are shifting, creating new pressures that will strain long-standing financial structures.
BUT WHERE WILL THE WORLD'S NEW ECONOMIC FAULT LINES EMERGE?
AND HOW DISRUPTIVE WILL THEY BE?
In a clear and far-reaching reckoning, The Fractured Age lays bare the threats and opportunities that will shape the world economy over the coming decade. It charts the emergence of geopolitical blocs in a world undergoing profound change - blocs whose relative size and economic diversity will be pivotal in reordering everything from goods trade and investment flows to technology transfers and access to critical minerals.
As the world enters another period of seismic upheaval and a new global order emerges, understanding which economies will benefit, and which will bear the costs, will be critical for effective decision-making throughout boardrooms and the halls of government.
As Chief Economist of one of the world's leading providers of independent macroeconomic and market research, Neil Shearing lays out a stark vision of the peaks and rifts that will unfold, and how they will fundamentally reshape the global economy in this fractured age.

Twelve Churches
With his trademark reverence and revelry, The Revd. Fergus Butler-Gallie travels through time and place to get to the heart of the religion he is so passionate about. In this book he takes us from Bethlehem and the birth of Christ some 2000-odd years ago, to the immediate present and future of Christianity. He brings together a Baptist Church in the segregationist American South with a medieval monastery in the heart of the Greek countryside; the Vatican - beautiful, imposing, vainglorious, the seat of Catholicism - with a sparse, tiny private church above the rocky coastline of Southern Japan. Twelve Churches is a quest for a new people''s history of Christianity, told through the stories of twelve churches scattered across the globe. Through a patchwork of interlinking and varied human stories, Butler-Gallie takes us on a physical and historical journey, exploring the role of hope, faith and beauty in Christianity, but also its fraught relationships with sex, violence and power. The story of Christianity is, he shows, the story of our modern world: it''s a story of who we should be, as well who we sometimes are.
Tales from the Tower of London
‘Highly enjoyable’ – Ancestors‘A fascinating recreation of the Tower as the life-and-death blood of the nation’ – Oxford TimesServing as both a palace and a prison, the Tower of London has been at the centre of more intrigue, terror and crucial turning points in history than any other site in England. Diehl and Donnelly take us behind the grim, grey walls which circumscribe England’s greatest fortress to discover true stories of the rebels, rogues, despots, lovers, spies and conmen who lived or were held captive there, and whose various, strange fates have added to the Tower’s sinister reputation. It is a place where court intrigues, clandestine liaisons, gruesome tortures and grisly executions took place with frightening regularity.Tales from the Tower of London is more than the factual history of a great building; it is storytelling at its best. The fifteen stories in this book are made all the more poignant by the fact that they are all true and focus on individuals royal and common, good and bad, heroic and villainous, who lived, loved, plotted and died there.The characters you will meet include: William the Conqueror Richard II and the forlorn ‘Princes in the Tower'' Wat Tyler Lady Jane Grey Guy Fawkes Colonel Thomas Blood Henry Laurens Sir Roger Casement Whether you are a lover of history, adventure, intrigue and romance, or just appreciate a ripping good yarn, you will find Tales from the Tower of London a classic page turner.
Nagato-Class Battleships
A pictorial guide to the Imperial Japanese Navy''s Nagato-class battleships, Nagato and Mutsu. The Nagato-class battleships, Nagato and Mutsu, were super-dreadnought-type vessels launched just after the end of the First World War. Mutsu exploded while at anchor in port in 1943. More than 1,000 were killed; the cause remains unknown to this day. Nagato survived the war and was sunk during the American nuclear testing at Bikini Atoll; the wreck is widely considered one of the premier diving destinations in the world. This is the illustrated history of both ships, including a historical synopsis, full technical description, and more than 100 photographs and diagrams. Naval historians Lars Ahlberg and Hans Lengerer have established themselves as experts on and specialists in the warships of the Imperial Japanese Navy during WWII. Their work is differentiated by being primarily driven by the utilization of Japanese-language primary source material.
Kursk 1943
A history and analysis of the fierce air war over the huge battlefield of Kursk, where the Soviets for the first time fought the all-conquering Luftwaffe to a standstill.The battle of Kursk was the last opportunity for the Luftwaffe to fully support a large-scale offensive, and was the Soviet air forces’ first success in battling their opponents to a standstill during summer months. Aiming to gain a success to stabilize the Eastern Front for the summer, Hitler ordered a concerted attack intended to cut off and destroy Red Army forces holding the Kursk salient. It turned into the greatest tank clash of the war. In this book Soviet military expert William E. Hiestand explains how the complex air war over Kursk played out. With both sides deploying new aircraft specifically designed for destroying tanks, massive engagements took place above the clashes of armor. It was a simultaneous struggle to attain air superiority while bringing their Stukas, Hs 129s, and Il-2 Shturmoviks down for repeated low-level attack runs in the face of enemy fighters and antiaircraft fire. But the campaign also involved strategic bombing behind the front lines, attacking airfields and rail junctions. Offering a day-by-day examination of the air forces’ actions, this book reveals the scale and intensity of the combat over the Kursk salient, the great turning point of the Eastern Front campaign.
Postwar Europe
Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, InspiringThe Second World War was the most destructive conflict in history. It left Europe in ruins, its economies severely damaged and millions of its people facing malnutrition, its political systems shaken if not destroyed. Yet three decades later its economies had recovered; it largely appeared politically stable; its inhabitants generally were well housed and well fed. Then at the end of the 1980s, the postwar settlement disintegrated, and a new chapter in Europe''s postwar history had begun.In this Very Short introduction, Richard Bessel presents a clear, concise, informative account of Europe''s history between the end of the Second World War and roughly the end of the twentieth century. He explores the conditions in Europe at the end of the war, how political life took shape and societies were rebuilt, the impressive economic recovery, the Cold War division, the end of empire, and European cultural life. Bessel discusses how we might understand the beginnings and endings of the postwar era, and emphasises the importance of the experiences and actions of specific generations of Europeans. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
The Mirror of Great Britain
A major reassessment of one of Britain’s most strange and fascinating kings, James I of England and VI of Scotland James VI & I, who died 400 years ago, was one of Britain’s most consequential and interesting monarchs, not least in creating the British monarchy itself by joining the English and Scottish thrones. A major intellectual, James''s preoccupations ranged from witchcraft and theological controversy to hunting, diplomacy, poetry and sartorial fashion. The ''Mirror of Great Britain'' was a spectacular jewel that gave symbolic endorsement to James''s vision of British union, but mirrors themselves - with their limitless capacity to magnify, illuminate and distort - supplied James with one of his favourite literary metaphors. Ruler of Scotland for nearly four decades before his accession to the English throne in 1603, James was a ‘cradle king’ whose long reigns encompassed extraordinary dramas, including his abduction in the ‘Ruthven Raid’ in 1582 and his attempted assassination in the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. In his lifetime, James often confounded contemporaries’ expectations while his posthumous reputation has been distorted by crude stereotypes.Closely attentive to James’s own words – in numerous publications, manuscript musings, topical verse and private correspondence – Clare Jackson''s wonderful new book tells the story of this highly unusual monarch with great flair and insight.
The Escape from Kabul
A gripping story of rescue, survival and female solidarity. In the twenty years since 2001, Afghan women obtained legal degrees, became judges and set out to transform their country – tackling corruption, and reducing horrifying levels of violence against women and children. These educated and powerful women led the mission to build a modern democracy. However, when Western forces withdrew in August 2021, the women judges of Afghanistan and their families faced mortal danger. The Escape from Kabul is the never-before-told story of the escape of nearly 200 women and their families, thanks to a network of professional friends, female judges and lawyers from around the world, who refused to abandon them to the Taliban. A searing insight into the challenges of safely building a new life overseas and also the captive fate of women in Afghanistan. ‘Anyone concerned about the fragility of rights or the isolation of those living under repression should read this book’ Martha Minow, author of When Should Law Forgive?

God of the Oppressed: 50th Anniversary Edition
First published in 1975, God of the Oppressed remains a landmark in the development of Black Theology—the first effort to present a systematic theology drawing fully on the resources of African-American religion and culture. In his reflections on God, Jesus, suffering, and liberation, Cone relates the gospel message to the experience of the Black community. But a wider theme of the book is the role that social and historical context plays in framing the questions we address to God, as well as the mode of the answers provided.
Earthbound: God at the Intersection of Climate and Justice
In the face of tremendous ecological changes, environmental crises, and social inequity, our God-talk must reveal our profound interconnectedness with Earth and all its inhabitants. Grace Ji-Sun Kim offers a transformative vision of divine presence that calls us to active, restorative justice. Drawing from Christian theology and urgent ecological insights, the book discusses our current climate catastrophes while illuminating pathways of healing and hope. Earthbound invites readers to embrace a radical theology of relationship—one that recognizes our responsibility to each other, to all living systems, and to the intricate web of life that sustains us.
Starověký Egypt: Bohové, říše a faraoni
Poznejte historii a nesmrtelné vládce říše na Nilu
Více než 3 000 let byla dávná říše rozkládající se podél životodárné řeky Nil domovem jedné z největších civilizací té doby. Tento bookazine plný krásných fotografií a barevných ilustrací je oslavou starověkého Egypta a jeho vládců a královen, kteří se snažili obří zemi držet pohromadě, rozšiřovali její hranice, bojovali s nepřáteli a vytvářeli fascinující památky, z nichž mnohé přežily celé věky až dodnes.
To vše se odehrávalo s podporou mocných nebešťanů, kteří tvořili nedílnou součást každodenního života starých Egypťanů. Bohové hráli klíčovou roli nejen jako ochránci a průvodci, ale také jako tvůrci světového řádu a harmonie. Byli uctíváni v chrámech při rituálech, které měly zajistit jejich přízeň a ochranu.
V egyptském náboženství hrála zásadní roli také hluboká víra v posmrtný život. V závěrečné kapitole se proto seznámíte s posvátnými rituály, které měly zemřelého na život v zásvětí připravit.

Cévní vstupy
Cévními vstupy rozumíme zavedení katétrů nebo kanyl do žilního nebo tepenného řečiště, které umožňuje řadu důležitých diagnostických vyšetření a je nezbytné pro aplikaci léků a výživy u závažných onemocnění. Na druhou stranu zavedení cévního vstupu může být komplikováno v případě, kdy není vstup správně indikován, zaveden a využíván.
V oblasti cévních vstupů dochází k významným změnám. Setkáváme se s novými typy cévních vstupů, využívají se nové metodiky, které rizika komplikací významně snižují, v posledních dvou desetiletích bylo postupně získáno mnoho nových informací na podkladě řady studií.
Žilní vstupy se tradičně dělí jednak na periferní a centrální a jednak na krátkodobé, střednědobé a dlouhodobé. Jak v oblasti periferních, tak v oblasti centrálních vstupů se posledním desetiletí objevila řada nových poznatků, které zásadně mění naše možnosti v jejich optimálním využívání. Dělení na krátkodobé, střednědobé a dlouhodobé žilní vstupy je v současnosti do určité míry překonané. Vedle žilních vstupů je v intenzivní péči často nezbytný i vstup do tepenného řečiště. I v této oblasti je třeba přijmout nové algoritmy, které budou v knize uvedeny.
V knize je vedle definování jednotlivých cévních vstupů věnována pozornost jejich současné indikaci. Součástí publikace je i podrobné seznámení se současným způsobem zavedení jednotlivých žilních vstupů včetně mezinárodně platných doporučení. Nechybí poslední poznatky v oblasti ošetřování a využívání žilní vstupů a problematika cévních vstupů u dětí.
Potřeba zavádění cévních vstupů se zvětšuje s tím, jak stárne naše populace. Počet lékařů je omezen a narůstá potřeba další specializace ve všech medicínských oborech. I v naší zemi to vede k nutnosti předání určitých kompetencí v oblasti cévního vstupu nelékařským pracovníkům.
Kniha je z uvedených důvodů určena jak lékařům, tak nelékařským pracovníkům, kteří se chtějí oblasti cévního vstupu věnovat a trvale do své práce zařazovat nové informace.
Romans
Step into the profound world of Paul’s Letter to the Romans, where renowned Pauline scholar and pastor Susan Eastman brings the text to life with rich pastoral and theological insights. This commentary doesn’t just analyze Scripture but invites readers into an encounter with the transformative power of the gospel that shaped Paul’s original audience and continues to resonate today.With preaching and teaching at its heart, Susan Eastman explores Romans as a dynamic proclamation of God’s faithfulness—a message that warms hearts, fires wills, and calls humanity into liberated service to God and one another. Through her keen attention to the letter’s historical context, literary artistry, and theological urgency, Eastman reveals the living presence of a God who keeps promises, remains faithful to Israel, and, through Jesus Christ, sets creation free with abundant grace.Readers are guided through the contexts of the early Roman house churches and Paul’s urgent call for unity and solidarity across cultural and class divides. Close attention to Paul’s rhetoric highlights his use of Scripture and his audience-involving writing style. Eastman also unpacks the deeper purpose behind Paul’s writing—his desire to strengthen his audience spiritually and prepare them to embody the gospel in their lives and ministries.Designed to inspire and equip preachers and teachers, this commentary highlights the enduring relevance of Romans’ many-layered theological message. At its core lies a singular truth: the good news of Jesus Christ, God’s Son in the flesh, who unites all people in revealing God’s righteousness and boundless grace to the world.About Interpretation Bible Commentary SeriesEmphasizing sound critical exegesis with strong theological sensibilities, the new Interpretation Bible Commentary series features innovative interpretive approaches that help readers engage the biblical text as a source for participating in the larger social world. These new volumes, written by an array of new and diverse authors, are designed to meet the needs of clergy, teachers, and students by inviting readers into the lively work of careful biblical interpretation for the purpose of faithful exposition. Through its engagement with Scripture, the Interpretation Bible Commentary series illumines our relationship with God, one another, and creation so that readers are propelled with new understanding and energy for fulfilling God’s claims on us in our rapidly changing contexts.
