Описание: Drawing on an unparalleled network of sources, contacts, and first hand testimonies, Con Coughlin takes us to the centre of Saddam's complex and bewildering regime, and beyond. Fully revised and updated, Saddam The Secret Life describes how Saddam took power and immediately set about controlling every aspect of Iraqi life. Coughlin examines Saddam's regime both before and after its fall, exploring the contradictions of Saddam's private life. His sponsoring of Islamic fundamentalism at odds with his whisky drinking and womanising; his reliance on and celebration of family negated by his violent and temperamental treatment of them. With evidence from both family members, servants and staff, Saddam: The Secret Life is unique in its representation of this illusive and secretive world. In extra chapters, and with shocking new evidence, Coughlin also vividly recounts the last few months of Sdam's reign and his eventual capture by American forces. Insightful, penetrating and shocking, Con Coughlin has written the defining biography of one of the most dangerous men of the last two decades.

Описание: La satira del siglo XVIII: Isla, Jovellanos, Moratin y la cultura de la epoca ilustrada estudia una epoca decisiva en la historia de la cultura occidental por la explosion de ideas cuyos ecos aun resuenan en nuestros dias. La ideologia de la Ilustracion provoca acciones que cambian el rumbo de Europa y de Occidente. La Rebelion de las colonias inglesas de America (1776) y la Revolucion contra la monarquia francesa (1789) modifican para siempre las sociedades occidentales. En esta epoca ocurren los primeros pasos de la revolucion industrial y un sistema economico distinto del anterior. Junto con estos cambios se nota un concomitante desarrollo en el mundo literario, en particular, la transicion del estilo barroco del siglo anterior a los nuevos valores neoclasicos y romanticos. Aunque existen estudios de autores dieciochescos, La satira del siglo XVIII presenta una vision colectiva que nos permite ver el destacado papel jugado por la satira durante el siglo de la Ilustracion. Este estudio de la satira en los generos principales: novela, poesia, ensayo y teatro, proporciona una vision coherente del ambiente social y literario del sigo XVIII. Las obras satiricas desempenan un papel de gran envergadura en las polemicas de la centuria y, por eso, nos provee un retrato muy ilustrativo de la vida intelectual, artistica, politica y cotidiana durante la epoca ilustrada. Este libro serviria de texto para un curso general sobre la literatura; pero, especialmente, para cursos dedicados a la satira y a la literatura del siglo XVIII.

Описание:

From the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir Shooter comes jack Coughlin's riveting narrative of how snipers have changed the course of America's war on al Qaida in the Middle East and Africa.

Retired Marine sniper Jack Coughlin (Shooter) and John Bruning pull back the curtain of secrecy to take an insider's look at the dark and misunderstood world of America's sniper force. Long considered the redheaded stepchildren of the infantry, snipers have been loathed by their fellow warriors, called ten cent killers by our media, and portrayed as unbalanced psychopaths by Hollywood. Coughlin and Bruning explore the lives and careers of some of America's most effective snipers during key missions, moments and campaigns in the War on Terror.

Part page-turning thriller, part deeply human drama, Shock Factor takes you from the streets of the modern day Stalingrad of Ramadi to the skyscrapers of Baghdad as America's one-shot warriors fight desperate battles against all odds, find themselves at the heart of tense international incidents, stalk key enemy leaders, and discover horrific human rights abuses perpetrated by our own allies. Based on extensive interviews with snipers currently on active duty, Shock Factor's gripping accounts of harrowing combat, buried truths and secrets revealed could only be told by snipers to a trusted member of their own elite and cloistered brotherhood.
