Summary of Otto Kroeger & Janet M. Thuesen's Type Talk【電子書籍】[ ? Everest Media ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 We do name-calling all the time. It is a method of cataloging people, and it is a handy device to help us remember those identifying characteristics and store that information for future reference. But we tend to have mixed feelings about it, especially when it is done in the name of science. #2 Typewatching is a method of responding to name-calling that is based on the idea that as long as we’re going to do it, we might as well do it as skillfully, objectively, and constructively as possible. It is easy to learn and use, and it can help teachers teach and students learn. #3 Typewatching is a judgment-free psychological system that explains normal rather than abnormal psychology. It celebrates differences, uses them creatively, and constructively rather than to create strife. #4 The roots of Typewatching date back to the 1920s, when the Swiss-born psychiatrist C. G. Jung proposed that human behavior is not random but is instead predictable and classifiable. He suggested that differences in behavior are the result of preferences related to the basic functions of our personalities.</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。

Mannerist Fiction Pathologies of Space from Rabelais to Pynchon【電子書籍】[ William Donoghue ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In <em>Mannerist Fiction</em>, William Donoghue re-conceptualizes the history of formalism in western literature. Rather than presuming that literary experimentation with form ? distorting space and time ? began in the twentieth century with Modernism, Donoghue identifies the age of Copernicus as the crucible for the first experiments in spatial de-formation, which appeared in mannerist painting and literature. With wide-ranging erudition, <em>Mannerist Fiction</em> connects these literary and pictorial developments and traces their repetition and evolution over the next five hundred years.</p> <p>Time and again, Donoghue explains, scientific and literary paradigm shifts have occurred in parallel. Rabelais and Jonson wrote in the aftermath of changes in the western sense of space wrought by Copernicus and the voyages of discovery, Jonathan Swift and the Marquis de Sade in the age of Newton, Thomas Pynchon in the age of Einstein. With his analysis, Donoghue establishes disfigurement and deformation as perennial sources of literary fascination.</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。

A Grammar of Mangghuer A Mongolic Language of China's Qinghai-Gansu Sprachbund【電子書籍】[ Keith W. Slater ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book is a grammar of Mangghuer, a Mongolic language spoken by approximately 25,000 people in China's northwestern Qinghai Province. Mangghuer is virtually unknown outside China, and no grammar of Mangghuer has ever been published in any language. The book's primary importance is thus as a systematic grammatical description of a little-known language. The book also makes a significant contribution to comparative Mongolic studies. In addition to the synchronic description of Mangghuer, extensive comparison with other Mongolic languages is included, demonstrating the genetic relationship of Mangghuer within that family. In the course of describing Mangghuer linguistic structures, the book also examines issues of interest to linguistic typologists.</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。

Hue 1968 A Turning Point of the American War in Vietnam【電子書籍】[ Mark Bowden ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong><em>Times</em> September 2018 paperbacks</strong><br /> <strong>A <em>New York Times</em> bestseller</strong></p> <p><strong>Bowden's most ambitious work yet, <em>Hue 1968</em> is the story of the centrepiece of the Tet Offensive and a turning point in the American war in Vietnam.</strong></p> <p>By January 1968, despite an influx of half a million American troops, the fighting in Vietnam seemed to be at a stalemate.Yet General William Westmoreland, commander of American forces, announced a new phase of the war in which 'the end begins to come into view.' The North Vietnamese had different ideas. In mid-1967, the leadership in Hanoi had started planning an offensive intended to win the war in a single stroke. Part military action and part popular uprising, the Tet Offensive included attacks across South Vietnam, but the most dramatic and successful would be the capture of Hue, the country's cultural capital. At 2:30 a.m. on January 31, 10,000 National Liberation Front troops descended from hidden camps and surged across the city of 140,000. By morning, all of Hue was in Front hands save for two small military outposts.</p> <p>The commanders in country and politicians in Washington refused to believe the size and scope of the Front's presence. Captain Chuck Meadows was ordered to lead his 160-marine Golf Company against thousands of enemy troops in the first attempt to re-enter Hue later that day. After several futile and deadly days, Lieutenant Colonel Ernie Cheatham would finally come up with a strategy to retake the city, block by block and building by building, in some of the most intense urban combat since World War II.</p> <p>With unprecedented access to war archives in the U.S. and Vietnam and interviews with participants from both sides, Bowden narrates each stage of this crucial battle through multiple points of view. Played out over twenty-four days of terrible fighting and ultimately costing 10,000 combatant and civilian lives, the Battle of Hue was by far the bloodiest of the entire war. When it ended, the American debate was never again about winning, only about how to leave. In <em>Hue 1968</em>, Bowden masterfully reconstructs this pivotal moment in the American war in Vietnam.</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。

Heideggerian Theologies The Pathmarks of John Macquarrie, Rudolf Bultmann, Paul Tillich, and Karl Rahner【電子書籍】[ Hue Woodson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In light of Martin Heidegger's contextualized influence upon them, John Macquarrie, Rudolf Bultmann, Paul Tillich, and Karl Rahner engage in theologies that, in their respective tasks and scopes, venture into existential theology, following Heideggerian pathmarks toward the primordiality of being on the way to unconcealment, or "aletheia." By way of each pathmark, each existential theologian assumes a specific theological stance that utilizes a decidedly existential lens. While the former certainly grounds them fundamentally in a kind of theology, the latter, by way of Heideggerian influences, allows them to venture beyond any traditional theological framework with the use of philosophical suppositions and propositions. In an effort at explaining the relationship between humanity's "being" and God's "Being," each existential theologian examines what it means to be human, not strictly in terms of theology, but as it is tied inextricably to an understanding of the philosophy of existence: the concept of what being is.</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>My life has been filled with love yet not without trials, tests, temptations and persecution. Through it all, God-Jehovah has never left me nor forsaken me, even when I have forsaken Him. He has been a constant in my life and has miraculously saved my family and all those with whom I have been in contact. I sincerely pray that this biography of my life with Jesus Christ will encourage the reader to follow the Call in his or her life. There is nothing special about me. My only virtue is Gods love, which has brought me to obedience, increased faith, trust, love and forgiveness. I am Gods Go-Go Girl Wherever He sends me I go! Whatever He says Do I do! My love for Him is overwhelming, my worship of Him is everlasting, my praise of Him is insufficient, since I have not the tongues of angels. May He hear my praise from the crevices of my heart and continue to bless my efforts as I labour in the vineyard of life, for souls for His kingdom. Jesus, keep me near the cross; Where the precious fountain, Free to all, a cleansing stream, Flows from Calvarys mountain. In the cross, in the cross, Be my glory ever.</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。

Lost Battalion of Tet The Breakout of 2/12th Cavalry at Hue【電子書籍】[ Charles A Krohn ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Published to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Tet Offensive, this new paperback edition brings back into print a book that became an essential source for a 2006 study of the battle by the U.S. Army s Center of Military History. It takes a critical look at what went wrong in early 1968 during one of the first engagements of Tet, when a U.S. infantry battalion was ordered to attack a large North Vietnamese force near Hue City without air or artillery support. The tragic military foul-up resulted in over 60 percent casualties for the 2d Battalion, 12th Regiment, 1st Cavalry Division, when the soldiers were surrounded by the enemy and began running out of ammunition. The bold decision by battalion commander Lt. Col. Richard Sweet to break out with his remaining soldiers under cover of darkness saved this encirclement from being a total disaster. Author Charles Krohn, the unit s intelligence officer at the time, provides a much-needed analysis of what took place and fills his account with details that have been confirmed as factual by other survivors. Krohn examines the battalion s involvement in two other major attacks for lessons learned when vital systems break down lessons, he says, that are timeless and applicable anywhere. This book is published in cooperation with the Association of the United States Army.</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。

Fire in the City: Airpower in Urban, Smaller-Scale Contingencies (USSC) - Case Studies of Hue 1968, Siege of Beirut 1982, Operation Just Cause 1989, UNOSOM Somalia, Uphold Democracy 1994【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. This study examines the roles and missions of airpower in urban operations in smaller-scale contingencies. Urban operations, often referred to as military operations on urbanized terrain (MOUT), are some of the most complex and difficult missions currently facing the US military. Smaller-scale contingencies introduce the challenge of significant political constraints and an increasing intolerance for casualties and collateral damage. To capture the difficulty of urban combat, the study concentrates on cases where combat operations were either conducted or planned.</p> <p>The study examines five cases in which airpower, including land and carrier based aircraft as well as helicopters, was involved. The cases include the battle for Hue during the Vietnam War, the Israeli siege of Beirut in Lebanon, Operation Just Cause, the US invasion of Panama, UNISOM II in Somalia, and Operation Uphold Democracy in Haiti.</p> <p>Mobility, in the form of strategic airlift and helicopter mobility, was generally the most important airpower contribution to urban, smaller-scale contingencies. Additionally, surface attack was decisive in some cases and helped to limit casualties and collateral damage in others. Other airpower missions, such as command, control, communications, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and information operations supported urban operations. Additionally, the case studies suggest that airpower can, under certain circumstances, coerce an adversary into complying with our demands.<br /> The cases also show that any misuse of, or failure to fully exploit the capabilities of, airpower can lead to dire consequences such as higher casualties, increased collateral damage, and mission failure.</p> <p>Chapter 1 - INTRODUCTION * Why are Urban, Smaller Scale Contingencies Important? * International Political Considerations * The Challenge * Is the US military adequately prepared for USSCs? * Framing the Debate * Chapter 2 - HUE, 1968 * The Role of Airpower * Airpower Missions * Airlift * Airpower Lessons * Capabilities * Operational Missions/Tactical Tasks * Collateral Damage * Chapter 3 - THE SIEGE OF BEIRUT, 1982 * Background * Operations * The Siege of Beirut * The Role of Airpower * Missions * Airlift * Air Superiority * Surface Attack * Information Operations * Airpower Lessons * Capability * Survivability * Chapter 4 - OPERATION JUST CAUSE, PANAMA, 1989 * Background Operations * The Comandancia * Paitilla Airfield * Torrijos/Tocumen International Airport * Pacora River bridge * Rio Hato * The Role of Airpower * Missions * Airlift * Inflight Refueling * Surface Attack * Communications, Command, Control, and Reconnaissance * Information Operations * Airpower Lessons * Capability * Operations * Survivability * Chapter 5 - UNOSOM II, SOMALIA * Background * Operations * The Role of Airpower * Airpower Missions * Airlift * Inflight Refueling * Surface Attack * Information Operations * Communications, Command, Control, and Reconnaissance * Airpower Lessons * Capability * Survivability * Chapter 6 - OPERATION UPHOLD DEMOCRACY, HAITI, 1994 * Background * Operations * The Role of Airpower * Missions * Airlift * Air Superiority * Inflight Refueling * Surface Attack * Communications, Command, Control, and Reconnaissance * Information Operations * Airpower Lessons * Chapter 7 - CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS * Airpower Roles * Mission Essential * Mission Critical * Mission Support * Strategic Coercion * Operational and Tactical Coercion * Opportunities Lost * Future Opportunities * Summary * Recommendations * Adverse Weather Capability * Survivability * Weapons * Breaking the Paradigm</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。

River of Perfumes A Novel of Marine Combat Correspondents in Hue City during Vietnam's Tet Offensive【電子書籍】[ Michael Stokey ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Post World War II America and teenage boys dreamed of adventure growing up in the 1950s, listened to Elvis Presley and read Jack Kerouac, yet it wasn't cruising Route 66 in a Corvette that united them, but Highway 1, known as the Street Without Joy, on the way to Hue city during the 1968 Tet Offensive in Vietnam. It was the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, Civil Rights and the pill, young girls in long boots and short skirts, but not for those in the jungle and rice paddies of Southeast Asia. Full of innocence and dreams, adolescent passion and coming of age horror, RIVER OF PERFUMES captures the contradictions of the times and what the brutality of war does to young men in battle, and a country that stayed home and abandoned them.</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。

The 1968 Tet Offensive Battles of Quang Tri City and Hue: The Fight for the Triangle and the Citadel, West of Hue, Stalemate in the Citadel, plus Secretary of Defense History Excerpt【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This monograph focuses on the battles of Quang Tri City and Hue that took place during the 1968 Tet offensive . The offensive itself, an all-out effort by Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces to overrun the major cities of South Vietnam, marked the turning point of the Vietnam War. Although the attacks were costly failures in military terms, they set the United States on a path of disengagement from the war that ultimately led to the fall of Saigon some seven years later. The battles for the two northernmost provincial capitals in South Vietnam, Quang Tri City and Hue, are particularly worth examining because the enemy regarded them as key objectives, second only to Saigon, the national capital . To a large extent, the success or failure of the offensive depended on what happened there The battles tell us much about how the enemy prepared for the offensive, why he achieved a high degree of surprise and initial success, and why his attacks ultimately failed The battle for Quang Tri City, a textbook example of a vertical envelopment, resulted in a quick allied victory. The fight for Hue turned into a slow, grinding campaign of attrition that lasted nearly a month before the enemy was finally defeated. Together, they offer instruction on the strengths and limitations of airmobile warfare and a primer on urban fighting in a counterinsurgency environment, subjects that continue to be a major Army interest throughout the world.
