The Wiles Of War: 36 Military Strategies from Ancient China

1993 y.
Publisher: China Books &, Periodicals
Description: `There can never be too much deception in war,` so goes a familiar Chinese maxim. Deception constitutes a main topic in every ancient Chinese classic on military strategy. However, it is uncommon for a book to deal almost exclusively on deceptive schemes, as in Secret Art of War: Thirty-Six Strategies. Written by an anonymous scholar about three hundred years ago the book did not see publication until 1940s. Since then, it has attracted the attention of military authorities and general readers alike. In addition to the precise translation of the ancient work, The Wiles of War provides for each of the thirty-six strategies the Chinese text, a lucid explanation, quotations for reference from other military classics, and the account of an ancient battle featuring the successful application of the strategy. The reader will have an opportunity to grasp the essence of ancient Chinese warcraft by reading some of the epoch-making battles in ancient China. Bilingual bibliography and index. [detailed...]

The Will to Believe: Woodrow Wilson, World War I, and America`s Strategy for Peace and Security (New Studies in U.S. Foreign Relations)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In many ways, Woodrow Wilson and the era of World War I cast a deeper shadow over contemporary foreign policy debates than more recent events, such as the Cold War. More so than after World War II, Wilson and his contemporaries engaged in a wide-ranging debate about the fundamental character of American national security in the modern world. `The Will to Believe` is the first book that examines that debate in full, offering a detailed analysis of how U.S. political leaders and opinion makers conceptualized and pursued national security from 1914 to 1920.Based on extensive research gleaned from public documents, presidential papers, and periodicals, `The Will to Believe` departs significantly from existing scholarship, which tends to examine only Wilson or his critics. This is the first study of America`s approach to the war, which examines all major U.S. perspectives from across the political spectrum and analyzes Wilson`s security strategy from the beginning of U.S. neutrality… [detailed...]

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: For half a century Earl and Floyd Willits built some of the world`s finest canoes, first near Artondale, Washington, then on Day Island, right off of Puget Sound in Tacoma. Turning out approximately twenty canoes a year, carefully logging and numbering each one, the brothers emphasized quality and design rather than volume. Willits Brothers Canoe Company earned a reputation that enabled the tiny company to compete successfully with businesses much larger, leaving a name and legacy which is still admired by canoe aficionados today. Carefully researched and documented, this combination biography and company history tells the story of Earl and Floyd Willits and their unique canoe company. Beginning with their family`s westward migration from Illinois, it follows the brothers as they set about starting the business that would become their lifelong work.

The Wilsonian Moment: Self-Determination and the International Origins of Anticolonial Nationalism

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: During the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, while key decisions were debated by the victorious Allied powers, a multitude of smaller nations and colonies held their breath, waiting to see how their fates would be decided. President Woodrow Wilson, in his Fourteen Points, had called for `a free, open-minded, and absolutely impartial adjustment of all colonial claims,` giving equal weight would be given to the opinions of the colonized peoples and the colonial powers. Among those nations now paying close attention to Wilson`s words and actions were the budding nationalist leaders of four disparate non-Western societies--Egypt, India, China, and Korea. That spring, Wilson`s words would help ignite political upheavals in all four of these countries. This book is the first to place the 1919 Revolution in Egypt, the Rowlatt Satyagraha in India, the May Fourth movement in China, and the March First uprising in Korea in the context of a broader `Wilsonian moment` that challenged the existing… [detailed...]

The Win-Win Solution: Guaranteeing Fair Shares to Everybody

Description: Since the publication of Roger Fisher and William Ury`s highly influential book, Getting to Yes , it has been widely recognized that there is a middle ground between winning and losing in negotiation. Yet, while Getting to Yes was long on motivation, it was short on technique. What you really want to know is on which issues you will win, on which you will lose, and on which you will have to compromise. To this question, Steven J. Brams and Alan D. Taylor bring a patented procedure that not only is fair but also actually guarantees that both parties walk away with as much of the `win-win` potential as possible. [detailed...]

The Wind of the Hundred Days: How Washington Mismanaged Globalization

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In The Wind of the Hundred Days , a new collection of public policy essays, Jagdish Bhagwati applies his characteristic wit and accessible style to the subject of globalization. Notably, he argues that the true Clinton scandal lay in the administration`s mismanagement of globalization--resulting in the paradox of immense domestic policy success combined with dramatic failure on the external front. Bhagwati assigns the bulk of the blame for the East Asian financial and economic crisis--a disaster that prompts him to use as his title the poet Octavio Paz`s image of devastation `I met the wind of the hundred days`--to the administration`s hasty push for financial liberalization in the region. The administration, Bhagwati claims, has also mishandled the freeing of trade. The administration-hosted WTO meeting in Seattle ended in chaos and the launch of a new round of multilateral trade negotiations was dashed. Bhagwati shows how the administration`s failure to get… [detailed...]
