The profound insights of this book have endured for over two thousand years, and they continue to reward careful study. The Military Methods of Sun Pin, the great-grandson of Sun Tzu, is a brilliant elaboration on his ancestor’s work, which has been lost for nearly two millennia. Presented here together for the first time are the greatest of the ancient Chinese classics of strategic thought: The Complete Art of War.The Sun family writings on strategy represent a unique contribution to our understanding of human affairs. By unveiling the complex, often unexpected, interrelationships of armies locked in battle, their wisdom reveals the enduring principles of success in the struggle of life itself.With a unique index to the essential principles of strategy, and Sawyer’s thoughtful chapter-by-chapter commentaries, The Complete Art of War is designed to guide the reader to new insights into the nature of human conflict and a greater understanding of every field of human activity, from playing the game of politics to building a successful marriage, from closing a deal to managing a large organization, and even from making war to making peace. Shooting Up is a peculiar history of the \'highs\' of war. It explores the ways in which the military has made most of various kinds of intoxicants from antiquity to the 21st century. The book examines drugs issued to soldiers by armed forces not only for medicinal pur¬poses but--most crucially--to boost performance, raise courage, and alleviate stress and fear. It also looks at psychoactive substances \'self-prescribed\' by combatants, taken for self-medication and recreation. Finally, the book covers intoxicants used as a tool of war, either as a feasible non-lethal psychochemical weapon or as a means of subversion. By discussing the risks of the practice of intoxication for fighting power, military discipline and veterans\' lives, it vividly demonstrates that the military use of drugs brings mixed blessings and curses. From hallucinogenic mushrooms to ecstasy from Homeric warriors to the present-day, Shooting Up tells the largely untold story of how drugs have sustained warriors through the centuries and will fuel future war in strange and remarkable ways. The Soviet Military Experience is the first general work to place the Soviet army into its true social, political and international contexts.It focuses on the Bolshevik Party\'s intention to create an army of a new type, whose aim was both to defend the people and propagate Marxist ideals to the rest of the world. It includes discussion of the: * origins of the Workers and Peasant\'s Red Army* effects of the Civil War* Bolshevik regime\'s use of the military as a school of socialism* effects of collectivization and rapid industrialisation of the 1920s and 1930s* Second World War and its profound repercussions* ethnic tensions within the army* effect of Gorbachev\'s policies of Glasnost and Perestroika Sun Tzu’s Art of War is the most famous, and the most thought-provoking, work of strategy ever written.

The engaging narrative shows the continuity of migratory processes from the time of foragers who settled the earth to farmers opening new fields and merchants linking purchasers everywhere. In the last thousand years, accumulation of wealth brought capitalism, industry, and the travels of free and slave migrants. In a contest of civilizational hierarchy and movements of emancipation, nations arose to replace empires, although conflicts within nations expelled refugees. The future of migration is now a serious concern.The new edition includes:An introduction to the migration theories that explain the shifting patterns of migration in early and recent timesQuantification of changes in migration, including international migration, domestic urbanization, and growing refugee movementsA new chapter tracing twenty-first-century migration and population from 2000 to 2050, showing how migrants escaping climate change will steadily outnumber refugees from other social conflictsWhile migration is often stressful, it contributes to diversity, exchanges, new perspectives, and innovations. This comprehensive and up-to-date view of migration will stimulate readers with interests in many fields. The Desired Brand Effect Stand Out in a Saturated Market with a Timeless Brand
