Paperback. Etat : Good. Technological failure results when one side in a conflict does not fully grasp the potential impact of known, or even familiar, weapons in the enemy's hands. In most cases, such failure resulted from higher officials' ignorance or their total misunderstanding of the importance and relevance of such technology and science as well as of their application to warfare. Technological failure is also the root cause of technological surprise. While operational surprise on the battlefield poses grave problems, technological surprise is far more serious, because, as Azriel Lorber explains, it often leads to disasters on the battlefield and is more difficult to recover from. In too many cases, technological failure and surprise stem from all-too-human characteristics, such as self-satisfaction, disdain for the adversary, obtuseness, and conservatism. Because these traits show no evidence of disappearing, political decision makers and military commanders should be aware that technological failure and technological surprise could happen at any time.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. None of us have all the right answers. Certainly not on the first try. But what we do have are experiences, mentors, friends, family, and even enemies from which we learn. And in my case, I sure did a lot of learning. I can't offer you the right answers. And even if I could, what's right for me might not be ideal for you. What I can promise you is unfettered candor.

I have embraced what makes me unique. And I hope my story inspires you to do the same.…

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. Achilles was the Greek hero of the Trojan Wars, a warrior who seemed invincible and won every battle - surely not a man to doubt his own competence? Yet Achilles, like us mere mortals, had a fatal flaw. The story goes that as a baby, his mother dipped him in the river Styx so its waters would render him immortal. The only part of him to remain untouched was his heel: this was the place where he could be fatally injured, if only others could see through the deception to his fatal, hidden flaw. The rest, as they say, is history.This book is full of illuminating examples of those who suffer from such 'pseudo-competency'. It presents practical solutions to the problem of closing the yawning gap between people's own (low) assessment of themselves and others' (high) opinion of them in a particular field. Chapters deal with 'Achilles' at work, in love, as a parent and - one of the most intriguing cases - as an artist (painter, writer, musician - all types of 'creative block' are examined here). This is a fascinating study of the mechanics of self-doubt - and, more important, a powerful tonic for curing the crippling anxiety and stress caused by it.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Have you ever experienced crises, brokenness and failures in your life? Adrian Ghiduc has written a book that passionately addresses the catastrophic moments of suffering, pain, and loss that most every believer will experience at some point in their life. Having gone through the experience of walking with his mother through her struggle with cancer, which she fought bravely to the end and won, he transparently shares firsthand the emotions his readers have encountered or will encounter. Ghiduc's goal in writing this book was to write a message of hope for those who are in the midst of suffering, depression, failure and feel hopeless in their situations. Using easily understood objects like puzzle pieces, watchtowers, a letter, orange trees, a slingshot, seeds, a train ride, stones, and bones, Adrian Ghiduc sheds light on the unseen plan of God in some of life's most difficult lessons. God chooses to use people as instruments to fulfill His plans. He uses the diligence and obedience of a bitter widow, a prisoner, a barren wife, a prophet, and a judge to bring about His unseen plans. The author draws on his knowledge of history and shares insights from the lives of unsung heroes to reveal His unseen plans. Stories about broken legs, stolen horses, and daring escapes all show the reader that God is working-even when His children cannot see His unseen plans. Instead of wondering and wandering in the land of failure, learn to trust in His unseen plans and live a life of victory. God can turn your failure into a great victory.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. Have you ever done something that was so horrible that you truly have no excuses? A simple bless your heart won't cut it, and the all-encompassing Christian Hail Mary phrase that covers a multitude of sins, The Lord knows my heart, just won't do. Not for this time. You can wax poetic. You dropped the ball at the five-yard line, you didn't live up to your expectations, and you fell flat. Best of all, you're only human. But when you look at the aftermath of your decisions, it looks like a battlefield of the emotionally and sometimes physically wounded. There are no excuses. We knew better. We saw the trouble coming, and we just couldn't step away. We got caught up in our selfishness, caught up in fleeting excitement, and caught up in minutes of recklessness that have left a lifetime of I wish I hadn'ts. When you peel off the weak excuses, the tissue-paper pride, the guilt, anger, and shame, I messed up, without just flat-out cussing, sums it up. Now what will you do.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Has physics gone off in the wrong direction? Peter Woit presents the other side of the growing debate on string theory--arguing that it's not even science.

Paperback. Etat : Good. Fans of the hilarious essays that made up the author's first book, Zen Confidential, will find even more hilarity here--along with Zen insight applied to the things that happen in this thing called daily life. Whereas Shozan Jack Haubner's first book presented the Zen teaching in terms of outhouse-building, oyroki-bowl-stacking, and anatomy adjustment as one takes one seat on the zafu, this one goes deeper into experiences of love, death, and sex. And though the writing is still funny, it bears the mark of a guy who's been through the mill and who's come back to save all beings. The wide-ranging experiences of this funny and insightful monk--both inside and outside the monastery--include his memories of the dysfunctional Midwestern family life that led him ultimately to Zen practice (with a father resembling Mel Gibson on a bad day) and his confrontation with the everyday insanity that seems to arise whenever anyone declares, "I think I should be a monk!" Among the less-funny stuff is his harrowing brush with death from pancreatitis and his moving experience of the death of a dear friend. There's also a graphic account of the night he got stoned and went "over the wall" from the monastery to have some real fun. That he pulls it all off and it's still hilarious, moving, and profoundly expressive of Zen wisdom is a tribute to Haubner's gifts as a writer and humorist, but also to the sincerity of his practice. The insight makes the humor even funnier somehow, and the humor makes the insight hit home with much power.…
