Product Description

The more uncertain the developments in Russia and the rest of the former Soviet Union become, the more urgent is the need to understand Soviet military thinking over 75-year span of Soviet history. Although other books discuss various aspects of Soviet military thought, this study by senior scholars more thoroughly combines the perspectives of history and the social sciences to understand Soviet military doctrine, experience, and tendencies from its birth with Lenin's militarization of Marxism in 1915 to the far-reaching changes introduced by Gorbachev--with all the attendant dilemmas and tensions up to the coup and revolutionary upheavals of 1991. This appraisal of the Soviet way of war is significant for scholars and professionals in Soviet studies, military affairs, and international politics.

This collection shows how ideology, technology, experience, and personalities have shaped Soviet military doctrine since the Bolshevik Revolution. This study defines the shifting interplay of defensive and offensive strategies at different times, various policies for dealing with perceived threats of nuclear or conventional war, and reviews current discussions and future policy directions. First, the book describes the form and content of Soviet military doctrine from Lenin's creation of its premises in 1915 until Gorbachev's refutation of these premises in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Next, the book examines Soviet military thinking in light of the experiences of World War I and the Russian Civil War, the episodes of the interwar years, World War II, and the Cold War. The book then assesses the key issues that have marked the changing political and military landscape in the last years of the pre-coup Soviet Union. Included is the text of the last full statement of Soviet military doctrine before the coup and the breakup of the old Soviet Union. Finally, the book presents a window into the enduring proclivities of the Soviet/Russian way of war to provide a context for meeting the future and tempering its uncertainties. A concluding bibliographical essay points to significant literature on Soviet military doctrine.

Soviet Military Doctrine from Lenin to Gorbachev, 1915-1991 (Contributions in Military Studies) Review

The Soviet Deep Battle concept is an extremely impressive strategy and widely neglected in the west. If Stalin had not idiotically exterminated the brilliant officer corps of the Red Army before WWII, I doubt the outcome would have been anything like it was.

Product Description

Space Politics and Policy: An Evolutionary Perspective provides a comprehensive survey of Space Policy. This book is organized around two themes. Space Policy is evolutionary in that it has responded to dramatic political events, such as the launching of Sputnik and the Cold War, and has undergone dynamic and evolutionary policy changes over the course of the space age. Space Policy is an integral part of and interacts with public policy processes in the United States and abroad.

The book analyzes Space Policy at several levels including historical context, political actors and institutions, political processes and policy outcomes. It examines the symbiotic relationships between policy, technology, and science; provides a review and synthesis of the existing body of knowledge in Space Policy; and identifies Space Policy trends and developments from the beginnings of the space age through the current era of the twenty-first century.

Space Politics and Policy: An Evolutionary Perspective (Space Regulations Library) Review

Quick disclaimer in that I used this text book while attending a course led by the author in prepublished addition in 2002. That being said, I still feel to this day, 3 years later that this book is a good source for understanding the players involved in space exploration. I've referred back to it more than a few times throughout my career as someone involved in doing business with the government. The book is set up as a series of essays about a particular topic written by experts that specialize in that particular topic. A quick look at the table of contents reads as a whos who in the academic space policy world.

If understanding today's political decision making process used for government space acquisition is your goal, then I highly recommend this book.

Product Description

Offering engineers a thorough examination of special, more advanced aspects of digital wideband receiver design, this practical book builds on fundamental resources on the topic, helping professionals gain a more comprehensive understanding of the subject. This in-depth volume presents a detailed look at a complete receiver design, including the encoder. Moreover, it discusses the detection of exotic signals and provides authoritative guidance on designing receivers used in electronic warfare. From frequency modulation and biphase shifting keys, to parameter encoders in electronic warfare receivers and the use of the simulation and probability density function to predict the false alarm parameter, this book focuses on critical topics and techniques that help engineers design digital wideband receivers for top performance.

Special Design Topics in Digital Wideband Receivers (Artech House Radar Library) Review

Since James Tsui's last digital receiver book (Digital Techniques for Wideband Receivers, 2nd Ed, 2004), there have been significant improvements in digital hardware, e.g. much faster ADCs, faster DSP using FPGAs). Tsui's latest book extends the broad coverage of his previous digital receiver book to new wideband techniques that can be implemented with the new hardware. I found the book to be well written and accessible for people with moderate backgrounds in this field.

Product Description

While single wave ellipsometry has been around for years, spectroscopic ellipsometry is fast becoming the method of choice for measuring the thickness and optical properties of thin films. This book provides the first practical introduction to spectroscopic ellipsometry and the related techniques of reflectometry. A guide for practitioners and researchers in a variety of disciplines, it addresses a broad range of applications in physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, and materials science.

Spectroscopic Ellipsometry and Reflectometry: A User's Guide Review

A good follow up on Tompkins "A user's guide to Ellipsometry". This book deals with Spectroscopic Ellipsometry, but also covers the basics of single-wavelength ellipsometry. The book covers analysis of Thermal Oxide, PECVD SiO, SiO2, SiN, a-Si, etc. It also covers the mathematics behind the Lorentz oscillator, used in SE layer modelling.

Product Description

The teachings of St Symeon (949-1022) created much controversy in Byzantium and led to his short-lived exile to Asia Minor in 1009. This book examines St Symeon from within the Byzantine mystical tradition, looking at him as both a highly personal and a very traditional ecclesiastical writer. For the first time in modern scholarship, this study explores St Symeon's attitude to Scripture and to church worship; his relations with his spiritual father, Symeon the Studite; and the Studite tradition in general.

St Symeon the New Theologian and Orthodox Tradition (Oxford Early Christian Studies) Review

This is an excellent study on the life and teachings of St Symeon The New Theologian, one of the greatest saints of the Orthodox Church. The author integrates analyses of the mystical nature of the Orthodox Patristic Tradition and the nature of Orthodox mysticism as part of the Holy Tradition, with a thorough examination of St Symeon's approach to Scripture, worship and monastic life, and the ecclesiastic environment of 11th century Byzantium, just about the time of the schism between the eastern and western churches. In addition, we have here a captivating presentation of St Symeon's contribution to Orthodox Doctrine as viewed from the perspective of his anthropology, ecclesiology and mysticism, all made even more enticing through this saint's unique and bold style of expression. Of course, St Symeon's teachings on the Divine Light's nature and role in the process of theosis are given special attention. Last, Dr Alfeyev discusses St Symeon's place in the Orthodox Church, and the reverberation of his message around the world and across the centuries. In my opinion, this book is a must for serious students of Christian mysticism and Orthodox Christianity in general.

Standard Handbook of Plant Engineering Review

I recommend this book if you are working in plant projects, plant engineering is a bit different than design engineering and merits its own set of topics. this book will give you some basic guidelines and general knowledge. However, you will need more than one book in order to have sufficient references for this fed.
