Описание: This subject appeals not only because it is dramatic and controversial, but also because of the complexity, uncertainty and unpredictability of raiding. Leadership was critical since raiding posed many challenges including vicious hand-to-hand fighting most often at night in unfamiliar trenches. These are just some of the reasons why raids are high in “human interest.” The book examines the nature, purposes, mechanics, execution and value of trench raiding. In this it succeeds admirably. It is also unique in three aspects. First, it shares the originality that features so strongly in all of Radley’s books. This in itself is appealing given that all too many books today seem to be less original that they are reiterative. While there have been in the past two accounts of raiding, in this latest work originality shines through in Radley’s choice and use of sources; in the imaginative use of Kipling’s six honest serving men that makes the answers to Kipling’s queries stand out sharply; and in the detailed description of preparing raid plans and orders, including their format, content and increasing sophistication. No other book so thoroughly and clearly guides readers from conception to plan and then translation into operation orders and instructions. What is also evident is this soldier-historian’s ability, which stems from long-service in the Canadian Army (Regular), and sound military education including Staff College, to apply the tests of military probability, soldierly logic and military common sense to what he has studied. These enable interrogation of misapprehension, nuance and unfounded deductions and conclusions. Second, Radley’s approach is unique. At the end of the first eight chapters, which thematically answer Kipling’s six queries, readers will be well aware of the nature of planning and executing raids. No other book tackles “How” to raid to the extent this one does. The first half also enables fuller appreciation of the lessons, course and conduct of the selected raids that year by year comprise the last half. Wisely, the author avoided including every raid, a course that almost inevitably would result in indigestible catalogue. Instead, the book offers selected raids, selection based on criteria such as unusual nature, purpose, size or technology, reasons for success or failure, innovation and lessons. Readers are free, of course, to wish this or that raid was present, but the author had also to consider the balance of the book, Canadian and British. Nor is the enemy forgotten. Radley exploits, for example, a Canadian brigadier’s primer (the “Book of Wisdom”) on preventing and defeating enemy raids. Finally, this book, like all Radley’s work, is extremely well documented thanks to a wide range of primary and secondary sources. The Bibliography, at over 40 pages, provides an unprecedented reference guide. Unlike earlier accounts Radley has made extensive use of the contemporary manuals. Remarkably, one earlier account did not even mention SS 107 Notes on Minor Enterprises, but then that account lists only three journal articles and two British divisional histories! For his part, Radley has made unprecedented use of the published histories of 45 British divisions and all the Canadian battalions, each being weighed against the other sources, not only to corroborate, but to enliven the bald official accounts with the colour and perspective of officers and men. While these unit and formation histories have serious flaws, and their quality varies, many offer valuable information not available elsewhere. Often these reveal even more in what they do not say. If the reader has appreciable military service so much the better since knowing how an Army works unlocks the nuances and enables amplification. In short, On The Dangerous Edge offers a unique approach and perspective plus thorough and careful assessment and analysis based on broad and deep research in both familiar and in heretofore neglected areas. It is difficult to fault Radley’s research and his marshalling of it. This book must surely be the definitive study of raiding. As such, it warrants close attention since it adds much to the history of a neglected aspect of the Great War.

A ruthless executive. A destitute woman. Both on the way up.
Selina Hale is on her way to the top. She's been working towards a boardroom position on the thirteenth floor for her entire career. And no one is going to get in her way. Not her clueless boss, her soon to be ex-wife, and most certainly not the homeless person who has moved into the car park at work.
Kate Morgan fell through the cracks in a broken support system and found herself destitute. Determined and strong-willed, she's not about to accept help from a mean business woman who can't even remember the names of her own nephews.
As their lives continue to intertwine, they have no choice but to work together and follow each other on their journey up.

Описание: "Bioenergy is energy derived from biofuels. A biofuel is a fuel that is produced through contemporary biological processes, such as agriculture and anaerobic digestion, rather than a fuel produced by geological processes such as those involved in the formation of fossil fuels, such as coal and petroleum, from prehistoric biological matter. Overall, bioenergy covers approximately 10% of the total world energy demand. Traditional unprocessed biomass such as fuel wood, charcoal and animal dung accounts for most of this and represents the main source of energy for a large number of people in developing countries who use it mainly for cooking and heating. More advanced and efficient conversion technologies now allow the extraction of biofuels from materials such as wood, crops and waste material. Biofuels can be solid, gaseous or liquid, even though the term is often used in the literature in a narrow sense to refer only to liquid biofuels for transport. Biofuels may be derived from agricultural crops, including conventional food plants or from special energy crops. Biofuels may also be derived from forestry, agricultural or fishery products or municipal wastes, as well as from agro-industry, food industry and food service by-products and wastes. The two main types of biofuels currently in production are bioethanol and biodiesel. Bioethanol is used as a replacement for petrol and biodiesel is used as a replacement for diesel. Biofuels represent an immense growth opportunity around the world and have an important role to play in displacing the fossil fuels the world has relied upon in the past with a cleaner, renewable alternative. Biofuels Engineering Process Technology is a comprehensive description and discussion of the concepts, systems, and technology involved in the production of fuels produced from plant and animal feedstocks. The book aims to be an inclusive summary of current biofuels concerns and thus contribute to the understanding of this important topic. Moreover, the biofuel is expected to be continuing in the foreseeable future and the reading of the biofuels features dealt with in this book, are mentioned for any person interested in understanding this varied and evolving subject."
