Mr. Greer reviews the very sporadic appearance of new weapons of war during the first three millennia of recorded military history. He contrasts this with the increasing frequency of new weapons in the most recent two centuries and the short time generally taken to develop those later weapons. The increased pace of technology improvement in several important categories of weapons is discussed and the sequence is concluded by a review of an extremely long development period of a recent weapon, the Osprey.

The health of business is inextricably linked with the health of humanity and nature. But our current approaches to leadership treat business as entirely separate—and the result has been recurring economic, environmental, and human crises. In this extraordinary book, Ram Nidumolu uses evocative parables and stories from the ancient Indian wisdom texts, the Upanishads, to introduce Being-centered leadership. This new kind of leadership is anchored in the concept of Being, the fundamental reality that underlies all phenomena. Being-centered leaders are guided by an innate sense of interconnection—the good of the whole becomes an integral part of their decisions and actions. Using the experiences of over twenty trailblazing CEOs, as well as those from his own life, Nidumolu describes a four-stage road map every aspiring leader can use to reconnect business to the wider world—to the benefit of all.

Praise for this Cozy Murder Mystery - Two Birds With One Stone "I was captivated by the first page!" --Cozyreaders, Amazon.com "Always a good sign when the first book in a series grabs my attention in the first paragraph and never lets go. But then I have a weakness for well-written English cozies. Yes, that the two main characters who seemingly had nothing in common would become fast friends was predictable, but it's to Ms. Vansandt's credit that their individual strengths and weaknesses were anything but. Looking forward to the next installments!"--Joanna M., amazon.com "This was fun reading with good characters and plenty of twists in the plot. The personalities of the two main characters make a good contrast. I like the way they play off each other. Good suspense to the end. Thought I had the villain all figured out but in the end, I was fooled completely. Good read for a first time author. Looking forward to what else she writes next."--Surley R., amazon.com About the Mystery It's a beautiful summer and the busy village of Marsden-Lacey, England, has murder on its mind. Someone just whacked everyone's least favorite villager, Sir Carstons, on his villainous head. That's when American expats, paralegal Martha Littleword and book expert Helen Ryes, find themselves knee-deep in Yorkshire murder. Spirited empty-nesters, they throw their newbie detective hats into the ring, only to discover that a murder mystery can quickly turn from adventurous lark into personal peril. With a dash of Southern charm and humor, and the help of a few quirky villagers, the girls just might survive. They'll also have to figure out how to handle the local catch-of-the-day, Piers Cousins, and the cantankerous Chief of Police, DCI Johns. Will they or won't they? If they do, they might solve a murder, or two, along with a hundred-year-old mystery involving a Brontë sister and a famous piece of English history. Happy reading!

The hawk soon draws many admirers. They name him Pale Male and watch as he builds his nest, finds a mate, and teaches his little hawk babies to fly. Based on the true story of Pale Male, City Hawk brings New York City's favorite hawk to life in a story of family, perseverance, and big-city living.
