Chesapeake Gold - Susan Brait - Bog - The University Press of Kentucky - Plusbog.dk

Chesapeake Gold - Susan Brait - Bog - The University Press of Kentucky - Plusbog.dk

The figure of an old man poling a skiff toward shore against the evening light engaged Susan Brait to learn about Chesapeake Bay, and it is that image which opens this her book on the oystermen of the Bay and the sapping of their traditional life, and even the bounty of the Bay itself, by the demands of American society. With directness and poetic economy Brait takes the reader into the life of the Bay and into the complex relationships that affect oysters and those who make their living from them. Her account weaves easily from the daily work of oystermen to the natural forces that have shaped the Bay, from the experimental culture of oysters by marine biologists to the plans of businessmen who expect to grow and harvest the mollusks on privately owned reefs, from efforts to legislate control of the Bay and its resources to the upper reaches of the Susquehanna River where increasing pollution of the Bay originates from agricultural practices of the Amish and other farmers. These and other disparate elements are gracefully woven into a seamless web that represents the complex wholeness of the Bay itself. Chesapeake Gold is a sensitive portrayal of people and their place, but it is also more. The oystermen and their efforts to maintain their traditional life become a figure for our society's struggle to find an ethic that will serve both man and the natural world that man is apart from and a part of.

Air - Axel Thallemer - Bog - Arnoldsche - Plusbog.dk

Air - Axel Thallemer - Bog - Arnoldsche - Plusbog.dk

What is air? You don''t think about air or even perceive it unless it has changed from its usual state. Air, that most ubiquitous of the four elements, was long the most inexplicable enigma, peopled by gods and their messengers, venerated as the abode of spirits or demons. Nowadays air has been ''deconsecrated'' and almost entirely demystified by science. Its availability is crucial; it envelops us and our planet allows us to breathe and is anything but something to be taken for granted. The book addresses the question of what air is and approaches answering it from two angles. First, through a scientific explanation of its chemical and physical elements, their properties and the effect they have on our immediate environment. In parallel, air is traced as a phenomenon dealt with in art, architecture and design, all of which perceive, represent and creatively use air as a medium in entirely different ways. The focus is on the twentieth century to the present day. The juxtaposition of art, architecture, design and science generates an exciting dialogue on air. An imaginative experiment intended to stimulate all those who are seriously concerned about air as an element vital to our survival.

Air Traffic Management - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Air Traffic Management - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book addresses each of the Air Navigation Services'' five broad categories of services provided to air traffic during all phases of operation: air traffic management (ATM), communication, navigation and surveillance services (CNS), meteorological services for air navigation (MET), aeronautical information services (AIS) and search and rescue (SAR). This book is designed for working professionals in Air Transport Management, but also undergraduate and postgraduate students studying air transport management and aeronautical engineering. It will also be very helpful for the training of air traffic control officers (ATCOs). The book does not require any prior (specialist) knowledge as it is an introduction to air navigation service provider (ANSP) business. There is very little literature available that gives a detailed appreciation of the complexities, potential risks and issues associated with the provision of air navigation services. The role of this book is to fill this significant gap with a comprehensive, in-depth study of the management principles related to ANSPs. This is particularly timely given recent ATC developments in Europe, USA and New Zealand. Airlines and airports rely on the ANSPs for the management of air traffic. Hence, air navigation services (ANS) provision is considered as a core element for air transportation.

The US Air Force Air Rescue Service - Wayne Mutza - Bog - Schiffer Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The US Air Force Air Rescue Service - Wayne Mutza - Bog - Schiffer Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This definitive work on air rescue operations of the US Army Air Force and US Air Force takes the reader from the birth of the service during World War II, through the Korean and Vietnam Wars, to present-day operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Detailed text, accompanied by numerous photos—including many never before published—presents all aspects of air rescue operations, from the service''s founding, specialized training and equipment, and discussions of such varied aircraft types as the Stinson L-5, Douglas SC-47, Douglas HC/SC-54D “Rescuemaster,” Fairchild SC-82A “Packet,” Boeing HC-97G “Strato-Rescuer,” Bell H-1 “Huey,” Sikorsky H-3 “Jolly Green Giant,” and many more. During the Cold War, this air arm expanded greatly and added the new mission of astronaut recovery through the early years of the US space program, as well as providing humanitarian aid during natural disasters worldwide. Air rescue came into its own during the war in Vietnam, when it became a highly skilled and effective force, rescuing thousands of fliers downed in combat, along with beleaguered ground troops. The present USAF air rescue service continues to live up to its motto “That Others May Live.”

Air Warfare - Michael P. Kreuzer - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Air Warfare - Michael P. Kreuzer - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This accessible new textbook provides a thorough grounding in the vocabulary, concepts, issues and debates associated with air power and aerial conflict. Despite being one of the most commonly relied upon forms of prosecuting modern conflict, few outside the military understand the tactics, equipment, and organizations associated with prosecuting an air campaign nor the relationship of air warfare to other domains of combat. The goal of this book is to take the complexity of air warfare and provide a clear, coherent understanding of the unique features of air warfare necessary for policymakers and students alike to follow the nuances of debates over the use of airpower in conflicts. Air Warfare is divided into two main sections, with the first looking at the underlying concepts of war and what is meant by air warfare and the air domain, and the second section examining air warfare in operations and tactics. It covers such issues as: - Conceptual overview of the theory and practice of air warfare to date; - Airpower as a coercive political tool outside of conflict; - Aerial combat and the process of gaining air superiority; - Exploiting air superiority for strategic bombing, support of fielded forces, command and control, and intelligence gathering; - Issues for the future of air warfare. This book will be essential reading for students of air power and air warfare, and highly recommended for students of strategic studies, military theory and defence studies. -
