＜p＞Is it really possible to look out at everything in front of us, all the visuals, images and word pictures, in fact, all of creation, and still miss the main point? Are we missing what God is shouting out to us to see? Are we missing so much of a perfectly designed universe, filled with multitudes of pictures and images right before us, as we hurry through life? Herein lies a much deeper discovery of how much God has laid before us, in declaring who He is, what He is doing through His perfect creation, through His own figurative language, and through an unlimited amount of visual images specifically revealing a God who wants to be known ... and how we are to respond to it all!＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Art of War "A Master Classic on Art of War"【電子書籍】[ Sun Tzu ]

＜p＞The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise dating from the Late Spring and Autumn Period (roughly 5th century BC). The work, which is attributed to the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu ("Master Sun", also spelled Sunzi), is composed of 13 chapters. Each one is devoted to an aspect of warfare and how it applies to military strategy and tactics.For almost 1,500 years it was the lead text in an anthology that would be formalised as the Seven Military Classics by Emperor Shenzong of Song in 1080. The Art of War remains the most influential strategy text in East Asian warfare and has influenced both Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy and beyond.Scholars do not know how The Art of War came to beand whether or not Sun Tzu, if he existed, had anything to do with its creation. What they do know is that copies of the book, typically written on sets of sewn-together bamboo slats, ended up in the hands of politicians, military leaders and scholars across China. From there, translated copies of Sun Tzus work found their way to Korea and Japan. (The oldest Japanese version dates from the 8th century A.D.)For more than 1,000 years, rulers and scholars across Asia consulted The Art of War as they plotted their military maneuvers and imperial conquests. Japanese samurai, for example, studied it closely. However, it did not reach the Western world until the end of the 18th century, when a Jesuit missionary translated the book into French. (Historians say that the French emperor Napoleon was the first Western leader to follow its teachings.) It was finally translated into English in 1905.INTRODUCTION:Sun Tzu Wu was a native of the Ch`i State. His Art of War brought him to the notice of Ho Lu, King of Wu. Ho Lu said to him: I have carefully perused your 13 chapters. May I submit your theory of managing soldiers to a slight test?Sun Tzu replied: You may.Ho Lu asked: May the test be applied to women?The answer was again in the affirmative, so arrangements were made to bring 180 ladies out of the Palace. Sun Tzu divided them into two companies, and placed one of the King's favourite concubines at the head of each. He then bade them all take spears in their hands, and addressed them thus: I presume you know the difference between front and back, right hand and left hand?The girls replied: Yes.Sun Tzu went on: When I say Eyes front, you must look straight ahead. When I say Left turn, you must face towards your left hand. When I say Right turn, you must face towards your right hand. When I say About turn, you must face right round towards your back.Again the girls assented. The words of command having been thus explained, he set up the halberds and battle-axes in order to begin the drill. Then, to the sound of drums, he gave the order Right turn. But the girls only burst out laughing. Sun Tzu said: If words of command are not clear and distinct, if orders are not thoroughly understood, then the general is to blame.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Poor People's Energy Outlook 2016【電子書籍】[ Practical Action ]

＜p＞What do poor people in the developing world identify as their most pressing energy needs ? electric lighting, modern cookstoves, power for health clinics? Drawing on in-depth consultations with selected energy-poor communities in Bangladesh, Kenya and Togo, the PPEO 2016 shines a light on the energy access priorities of some of the world’s poorest and most marginalized communities, highlighting the mix of energy solutions which could help enable them to lead the lives that they value. Recognising its role as a key enabler in international development, energy has received extraordinary levels of international attention in recent years; culminating in a dedicated energy access goal within the 2015 Sustainable Development Goals. Immense amounts of political, financial and human capital are therefore set to be invested in renewable energy, energy efficiency and, of fundamental importance, energy access. However, the vast majority of solutions proposed are still those that, to date, have left well over two billion people either totally without access to energy or without adequate, safe, reliable, and affordable energy services. If this situation is left unchallenged, the outlook remains bleak for poor people and global aspirations to universalise energy access by 2030. Seeking to address this, the PPEO 2016 offers an alternative framework for national energy planning which incorporates more fully the expressed?needs and priorities of the energy-poor. By exploring what it means to plan for energy access from the bottom up, and identifying a range of energy access solutions which could meet poor people’s prioritised needs, it offers national decision-makers a golden opportunity to achieve national energy access targets more quickly, cheaply and sustainably than the status quo currently provides. This edition is the first in a new suite of three PPEOs which takes the Total Energy Access framework developed in previous editions and illustrates how it can be operationalized in terms of planning (this edition), financing (2017) and delivering at scale (2018). This book is essential reading for national planners, policy and decision makers within energy, agriculture and education government departments; staff in international agencies; researchers in the energy sector; and private actors and financiers looking to invest in modern, affordable and sustainable energy for all.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Last Samurai The Life and Battles of Saigo Takamori【電子書籍】[ Mark Ravina ]

＜p＞The dramatic arc of Saigo Takamori's life, from his humble origins as a lowly samurai, to national leadership, to his death as a rebel leader, has captivated generations of Japanese readers and now Americans as well - his life is the inspiration for a major Hollywood film, The Last Samurai, starring Tom Cruise and Ken Watanabe. In this vibrant new biography, Mark Ravina, professor of history and Director of East Asian Studies at Emory University, explores the facts behind Hollywood storytelling and Japanese legends, and explains the passion and poignancy of Saigo's life. Known both for his scholarly research and his appearances on The History Channel, Ravina recreates the world in which Saigo lived and died, the last days of the samurai. The Last Samurai traces Saigo's life from his early days as a tax clerk in far southwestern Japan, through his rise to national prominence as a fierce imperial loyalist. Saigo was twice exiled for his political activities -- sent to Japan's remote southwestern islands where he fully expected to die. But exile only increased his reputation for loyalty, and in 1864 he was brought back to the capital to help his lord fight for the restoration of the emperor. In 1868, Saigo commanded his lord's forces in the battles which toppled the shogunate and he became and leader in the emperor Meiji's new government. But Saigo found only anguish in national leadership. He understood the need for a modern conscript army but longed for the days of the traditional warrior. Saigo hoped to die in service to the emperor. In 1873, he sought appointment as envoy to Korea, where he planned to demand that the Korean king show deference to the Japanese emperor, drawing his sword, if necessary, top defend imperial honor. Denied this chance to show his courage and loyalty, he retreated to his homeland and spent his last years as a schoolteacher, training samurai boys in frugality, honesty, and courage. In 1876, when the government stripped samurai of their swords, Saigo's followers rose in rebellion and Saigo became their reluctant leader. His insurrection became the bloodiest war Japan had seen in centuries, killing over 12,000 men on both sides and nearly bankrupting the new imperial government. The imperial government denounced Saigo as a rebel and a traitor, but their propaganda could not overcome his fame and in 1889, twelve years after his death, the government relented, pardoned Saigo of all crimes, and posthumously restored him to imperial court rank. In THE LAST SAMURAI, Saigo is as compelling a character as Robert E. Lee was to Americans-a great and noble warrior who followed the dictates of honor and loyalty, even though it meant civil war in a country to which he'd devoted his life. Saigo's life is a fascinating look into Japanese feudal society and a history of a country as it struggled between its long traditions and the dictates of a modern future.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞How would the history of an urban area look if water were at the center of analysis? ＜em＞Water in the Making of a Socio-Natural Landscape＜/em＞ explores the transition from early modern to modern water management in late nineteenth-century Rome. It merges local water management with national water policies aimed at promoting irrigated agriculture, industrial processes, and public health. It investigates perceptions and conceptualisations of water, changes in the water law, engineering projects, medical knowledge and practices, value of water in different productions, and needs and uses of local stakeholders. From which derives that water infrastructures are the complex outcome of the clash between different users and uses of water as well as the dynamic interaction between different levels of power. In this book, it builds upon Maria Kaika’s ＜em＞Cities of flows＜/em＞ and Erik Swyngedouw’s ＜em＞Liquid power＜/em＞ to introduce a new dimension to the analysis of urban water: the interaction among the three main uses of water: drinking, agriculture, and industry.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Water in the Making of a Socio-Natural Landscape is written for a specialist readership with an interest in environmental and urban history and science and technology studies, but it can also be used by graduate and PhD students.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

However, from the time the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment arrived in the country in September 1966, troopers of the Blackhorse Regiment demonstrated the fallacy of this assumption.

The WAY Back looks at many of those evil forces that fight against us and the pitfalls and tricks that are used to keep us from returning to the One who died to save us. It will also look at how to apply the Word of God in our lives that we might enjoy the victory over those forces that seek to destroy us.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Tynemouth in the Great War【電子書籍】[ Craig Armstrong ]

＜p＞＜strong＞A history of the English seaside town during World War I, from its significance to its sacrifices.＜/strong＞＜br /＞ Tynemouth Borough, which included the towns of Tynemouth and North Shields, was an area of strategic value to the national war effort as it contained the mouth of the river Tyne and was the entry point to the most important munitions center in Britain. Industry upriver included the manufacture of munitions, armaments, and military and civilian ships, while the port of Tyne was one of the busiest in the country with its internationally important coal export industry.＜br /＞ Away from its industrial importance, the area was also a hotbed of military recruitment. In common with the rest of the northeast, Tynemouth had large numbers of young men who were serving in the forces before the outbreak of the war. Its record for wartime recruitment was second to none and it lay in a key recruitment area for the local regiment, the Northumberland Fusiliers, who raised over fifty battalions during the warーa record. Given its location on the coast, Tynemouth also had a proud tradition of service in the Merchant Navy and many Tynemouth men had the sea in their blood, whilst North Shields was the home base of a large and active fishing fleet. Many of the men who manned the trawlers saw active service, whilst others were exposed to even greater dangers due to the war.＜br /＞ This engaging book is the first to look at the fascinating social history of Tynemouth during the shattering years of the Great War and charts the huge sacrifices made by the townspeople.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Night in Gethsemane On Solitude and Betrayal【電子書籍】[ Massimo Recalcati ]

＜p＞＜strong＞The highly regarded Italian philosopher and psychoanalyst offers "a brilliant, stirring analysis" on suffering, doubt, and the potential for renewal ( ＜em＞La Stampa＜/em＞, IT).＜/strong＞＜br /＞ For Massimo Recalcati, Jesus's reckoning in the Garden of Gethsemane is at once an instance of human weakness and an encounter with the Divine. It is the story where the Divine and the Human meet most forcefully, first in company, then in solitude, and where agony and doubt mingle with potential rebirth and revitalization.＜br /＞ As the Gospels recount, after the Last Supper, Jesus retreated to a small field just outside the city of Jerusalem: Gethsemane, the olive grove. His prayers are interrupted when Judas arrives with a group of armed men, and kisses him, betraying and abandoning him with a kiss. Jesus is forsaken by his friends and, it seems to him in this moment, by his father, his God. His sin, in Recalcati's view, is like Prometheus to have drawn Divine closer to man.＜br /＞ ＜strong＞"Lively and sharp . . . an invitation to look positively at the loneliness of human experience." ー ＜em＞Lettera＜/em＞, IT＜/strong＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞"In this first of three volumes on sea power, the author reviews the story of political, economic, and military oceanic control from the 1890s through WWI." ー ＜em＞Choice＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜br /＞ The transition to modern war at sea began during the period of the Sino-Japanese War (1894?1895) and the Spanish-American War (1898) and was propelled forward rapidly by the advent of the dreadnought and the nearly continuous state of war that culminated in World War I.

＜p＞＜strong＞A look at the constant confrontation with mortality the English experienced in a time of plague, smallpox, civil war, and other calamities.＜/strong＞＜br /＞ In the lives of the rich and poor alike in seventeenth-century England, death was a hovering presence, much more visible in everyday existence than it is today.

＜p＞＜strong＞An award-winning cavalry historian shares a myth-busting look at how the Union cavalry surpassed its Confederate counterpart and helped win the Civil War.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Army of the Potomac's mounted units suffered early in the Civil War at the hands of the horsemen of the South. However, by 1863, the Federal cavalry had evolved into a fearsome fighting machine. Despite the numerous challenges occupying officers and politicians, as well as the harrowing existence of troopers in the field, the Northern cavalry helped turn the tide of war much earlier than is generally acknowledged.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this expertly researched volume, historian Eric J. Wittenberg describes how the Union cavalry became the largest, best-mounted, and best-equipped force of horse soldiers the world had ever seen. The 1863 consolidation of numerous scattered Federal units created a force to be reckoned withーa single corps ten thousand strong.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Mixing Races From Scientific Racism to Modern Evolutionary Ideas【電子書籍】[ Paul Lawrence Farber ]

＜p＞＜strong＞"Traces both historically and sociologically the changing attitudes on race-mixing (miscegenation) in western culture . . . clear, well written and useful." ー ＜em＞Journal of the History of Biology＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜br /＞ This book explores changing American views of race mixing in the twentieth century, showing how new scientific ideas transformed accepted notions of race and how those ideas played out on college campuses in the 1960s.＜br /＞ In the 1930s it was not unusual for medical experts to caution against miscegenation, or race mixing, espousing the common opinion that it would produce biologically dysfunctional offspring. By the 1960s the scientific community roundly refuted this theory. Paul Lawrence Farber traces this revolutionary shift in scientific thought, explaining how developments in modern population biology, genetics, and anthropology proved that opposition to race mixing was a social prejudice with no justification in scientific knowledge.＜br /＞ In the 1960s, this new knowledge helped to change attitudes toward race and discrimination, especially among college students. Their embrace of social integration caused tension on campuses across the country. Students rebelled against administrative interference in their private lives, and university regulations against interracial dating became a flashpoint in the campus revolts that revolutionized American educational institutions.＜br /＞ Farber's provocative study is a personal one, featuring interviews with mixed-race couples and stories from the author's student years at the University of Pittsburgh. As such, ＜em＞Mixing Races＜/em＞ offers a unique perspective on how contentious debates taking place on college campuses reflected radical shifts in race relations in the larger society.＜br /＞ ＜strong＞"A fascinating look at how evolutionary science has changed alongside social beliefs." ー ＜em＞Midwest Book Review＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜br /＞ ＜strong＞"Will open the dialogue about social barriers and group identities . . .
