The Collapse of the Soviet Military

Editura: YALE UNIV PR

Anul aparitiei: 2000

One of the great surprises in modern military history is the collapse of the Soviet Armed Forces in 1991--along with the party-state with which it was inextricably intertwined. In this important book, a distinguished United States Army officer and scholar traces the rise and fall of the Soviet military, arguing that it had a far greater impact on Soviet politics and economic development than was perceived in the West. General William E. Odom asserts that Gorbachev saw that dramatically shrinking the military and the military-industrial sector of the economy was essential for fully implementing perestroika and that his efforts to do this led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Odom enhances his account with interviews with key actors in the Soviet Union before, during, and after the collapse. He describes the condition of the Soviet military during the mid-1980s and explains how it became what it was--its organizational structures, manpower policies, and military-industrial arrangements. He then moves to the dramatic events that led to its destruction, taking us to the most secret circles of Soviet policy making, as well as describing the public debates, factional struggles in ...

Fixing Intelligence: For a More Secure America, Second Edition

Editura: YALE UNIV PR

Anul aparitiei: 2004

Security depends on intelligence. A leading authority discusses basic problems in American intelligence and how to fix them William E. Odom is the highest-ranking member of the United States Intelligence community ever to write a book outlining fundamental restructuring of this vast network of agencies, technology, and human agents. In the wake of 9/11, Odom has revised and updated a powerful critique he wrote several years ago for staffs of the U.S. congressional committee overseeing the vast American intelligence bureaucracy. His recommendations for revamping this essential component of American security are now available for general readers as well as for policymakers. While giving an unmatched overview of the world of U.S. intelligence, Odom persuasively shows that the failure of American intelligence on 9/11 had much to do with the complex bureaucratic relationships existing among the various components of the Intelligence Community. The sustained fragmentation within the Intelligence Community since World War II is part of the story; the blurring of security and intelligence duties is another. Odom describes the various components of American intelligence in order to give ...

America's Inadvertent Empire

Editura: YALE UNIV PR

Anul aparitiei: 2005

The United States finds itself at the center of a historically unparalleled empire, one that is wealth-generating and voluntary rather than imperialistic, say the authors of this compelling book. William E. Odom and Robert Dujarric examine America's unprecedented power within the international arenas of politics, economics, demographics, education, science, and culture. They argue persuasively that the major threat to this unique empire is ineffective U.S. leadership, not a rising rival power center. America cannot simply behave as an ordinary sovereign state, Odom and Dujarric contend. They describe the responsibilities that accompany staggering power advantages and explain that resorting to unilateralism makes sense only when it becomes necessary to overcome paralysis in multilateral organizations. The authors also offer insights into the importance of liberal international institutions as a source of power, why international cooperation pays, and why spreading democracy often inhibits the spread of constitutional order. If the United States uses its own power constructively, the authors conclude, the American empire will flourish for a long time.

On Internal War-C

Editura: DUKE UNIV PR

Anul aparitiei: 1991

William E. Odom combines expertise in political science and military affairs to challenge both conventional and unconventional wisdom about insurgencies and political development. The author concludes that in all three components of U.S. strategy for counterinsurgency--political, economic, and military--faulty notions of causation inform policy. U.S. advice to embattled governments fails to recognize the inherent clash of development goals; direct fiscal aid hurts more often than it helps recipient governments; and the focus of U.S. military assistance on fighting insurgents plays to their strengths and fails to exploit their weaknesses.On Internal War reviews the contrasting theory and practice in Soviet and American approaches to their competition in the Third World and relates them to indigenous causes of internal wars. Odom also integrates the military dimensions of insurgencies with external influences and internal politics. Drawing on political development theory, he underscores the sources of instability in Third World states that make insurgencies more likely and offers ways to assess the prospects for democracy in specific cases.The centerpiece of the study is a practical ...

Jesus I Heard You Call: Book I: Journey to Jerusalem Book II: Dreams Book III: The Awakening

Editura: AUTHORHOUSE

Anul aparitiei: 2004

Christopher Andrew Dean has the uncanny ability to record words on the written page to his memory. He has more than once astounded his professors at the University of Chicago, until he meets Professor Berman. The tactless professor has no place in his European History Classes for the likes of Christopher Dean, since his student wants to discuss the impact of Jesus Christ on the world. Christopher wants to discuss how the church changed the religious history of the Holy Land. Professor Berman would have none of that for he did not believe it was true. He sends his student away from his classes when Christopher Andrew insists that Jesus Christ's influence could be seen across the European continent and Jerusalem. The Holy Land wasn't affected by Christianity according to the professor. The Muslims and the Crusaders had despoiled it. Professor Berman dismissed his student since he was unable to quiet the young man. This sent Christopher Andrew on a Journey to Jerusalem.

Phantom Words: A Stroke Victim's Loss Leads to an Amazing Gain

Editura: AUTHORHOUSE

Anul aparitiei: 2006

At that point clots bulging in my left ventricle raced toward my brain, and the more anxious I became as my heart rate climbed, the more each beat cleared the clots from my arm. That's when my world darkened and my mind escaped my body. I saw my physical being from a few feet above, standing with a friend. "I'm right here," I thought in awe, "but I'm also right over there." I was staring at the shell of myself, but I couldn't approach it. I had no physical feeling, as you would with a body. "This is it," I thought, strangely growing peaceful among the chaos that moments earlier had racked my brain. "I no longer have to wonder how I'll die." I fully knew I was dying and I wasn't shocked. A clear understanding that I teetered between life and death enveloped me. From behind, a warm blanket of serenity overwhelmed my senses, and a powerful feeling to fall back and surrender to the tranquility engulfed me. "It's OK, it's beautiful," the serenity beckoned. "Just lay down." But an overwhelming urge - knowing with all of my heart that God needed me on earth for a rebirth and a life of His service - kept me from that final, peaceful surrender. I rushed back to my body, where noise and ...

Anul aparitiei: 2007

My mother, who is the only daughter of 9 brothers prepared 30 plus meals a day. Because of her fathers and mothers long time business connections, church affilitations, and a huge family base, often, this number swelled. Being able to cook tasty meals that were healthy and satisfying was a necessity and something to be expected of my mother and her mother. It wasn't until some years later while eating tea cakes, my mother stated that we really needed to publish these heirloom recipes because other people have the same memories. So, she began her collection of all time favorites as offered by her cousins, aunts, and occasional uncle. This cookbook is a starter for someone who wants to remember the smells and tastes of their home. It serves as a tribute to my mother, her mother and her mothers mothers recipes. These are our memories stretching back hundreds of years and we are sharing them with you.
