Or will they decr ease crisis-stability and further hamper arms control and detente? That depends on the military doctrine into which they are to be incorporated. Will Western Europe support the implementation of SDI, beginning with the installation of anti-ballistic missile systems on its own territory? Will it opt for the US-designed deep-strike doctrine? Or should the European NATO members opt for a purely conventional doctrine that emphasizes defense? These questions are discussed against the background of a wealth of information, both on the relevant technologies and weapon systems, and on the doctrines now under development. The choice of weapon systems is shown to be a political issue which must not be left to military specialist."--Publisher ; store label on front, else FINE/FINE. Book.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. THE ONLY STAND ALONE VERSION OF ARISTOTLE'S FAMOUS ESSAY ON MELANCHOLY.Original title Problemata XXX.iIt begins with the much quoted question: 'Through what cause do all those who become eminent in philosophy or politics or poetry or the arts turn out to be melancholics?'In a modernised and adapted translation by philosopher Dr Marlies ter BorgMarlies shows that Aristotle's concept of melancholy is bipolar.'For melaina chole can become both very hot and very cold.'The Greek philosopher warns for extreme mood, agressive mania or suicidal dejection. As a warning against extreme mood, Aristotle mentions the mythical figures of Greek tragedy, Ajax and Hercules.Aristotle advises melancholics therapy and medicine, to avoid extremes.'Melancholics are in perpetual need of medicine. Depending on coincidence, they can become the victim of either extreme exuberance or deep sorrow. And through medical therapy these extremes become less pronouced.''If they are not careful, they can become extremely melancholic.''However if their melaina chole is tempered, they are men of genius' This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The colorful images in this book show that we have more in common than is generally supposed. They are miniature figures well known from BIBLE AND QURAN. Adam, Noah, Moses, Mary and Jesus, and many others revered by Muslims and Christians alike. Surprising to find them rendered here by Muslim artists! Islamic art, admired for its non-figurative beauty, sometimes ventures into the figurative sphere, for educational and illustrative purposes. Tucked discreetly into books, rather than proudly displayed in mosques, they are now buried in the cellars of mainly Western museums. Reason enough to make these jewels available for the general public. For the images show not only similarities with Christian art but also fascinating differences both in content and style.Adam and Eve/Hawwa revered by angels, and then leaving Paradise on a four legged snake; the child Moses on Pharaoh's lap; King Solomon conversing with animals; Jesus on horseback raising Lazarus from the dead; finally Mary, Jesus and Moses depicted together with Muhammad; the last two with discreetly covered faces. Each image is accompanied by a short explanation and relevant Qur'anic texts. Reproductions of the images, stemming from the 16th and 17th century, admired by Christians and Muslims, have been shown in a mobile exhibition. Negotiations are underway for a full fledged exhibition with some if not all of the authentic miniatures.
