Karl von Clausewitz wrote that war is a trinity composed of the policy of the 
government, the activities of the military, and the passions of the people. 
Michael Howard argues that "each of these must be taken into account if we are 
to understand both why the war happened and why it took the course it did." In 
nine brisk chapters, Howard lays out the historical situation in Europe in 1914, 
the dispositions of the major belligerents prior to the war, the causes of war, 
the major campaigns, the entrance of the United States, the crisis, victory, and 
settlement of the war. Along the way, he offers compelling insights into the 
political motivations, military actions, and the "passions of the people" that 
contributed most strongly to the outcome of the war. 
There is no other short history of WWI on the market today written by a 
historian of Michael Howard's stature. For anyone wishing to gain a quick but 
authoritative understanding of one of the most crucial events of the twentieth 
century, The First World War is the best place to begin.

Lyubomir T. Gruyitch, "Stability Domains (Nonlinear Systems in Aviation, 
Aerospace, Aeronautics and Astronautics)" 
CRC Press | ISBN 0415308488 | 2003 Year | PDF | 1,65 Mb | 336 Pages[cut] 
 
Stability Domains is an up-to-date account of stability theory with particular 
emphasis on stability domains. Beyond the fundamental basis of the theory of 
dynamical systems, it includes recent developments in the classical Lyapunov 
stability concept, practical stabiliy properties, and a new Lyapunov methodology 
for nonlinear systems. It also introduces classical Lyapunov and practical 
stability theory for time-invariant nonlinear systems in general and for complex 
(interconnected, large scale) nonlinear dynamical systems in particular. This is 
a complete treatment of the theory of stability domains useful for postgraduates 
and researchers working in this area of applied mathematics and engineering.

Encompassing the whole spectrum of the history and theory of politics from 
Socrates to Rawls, this is the most comprehensive and scholarly reference work 
available on its subject. The 350 entries, written by a team of 120 
international specialists, are a balanced blend of full-length survey articles 
and shorter definitions. Key concepts in political thought are defined and 
analyzed, and ideologies are considered in relation both to historical context 
and to contemporary politics. All articles are cross-referenced and indexed.

M.Bradbury, "Representations of Death: A Social Psychological Perspective" 
Routledge | ISBN 0415150221 | 2000 Year | PDF | 3,36 Mb | 240 Pages[cut] 
 
Exploring the world of contemporary mortuary practices, from the initial 
examination to the final cremation of the body, Representations of Death 
analyzes the ritual process at work and critiques the traditional models of 
grief. Mary Bradbury uses the social psychological theory of social 
representations to illuminate the perspectives of both the grieving relatives 
and the deathwork professional. The book shows how social representations--such 
as the perceived "goodness" or "badness" of a death--are an expression of a need 
to make death familiar and are anchored in current mortuary practices.
