The Memoirs of General of Panzer Troops Hermann Balck

# data[].attributes.description
German general Hermann Balck (18971982) was considered to be one of World War II's greatest battlefield commanders. His brilliantly fought battles were masterpieces of tactical agility, mobile counterattack, and the technique of Auftragstaktik, or "mission command." However, because he declined to participate in the U.S. Army's military history debriefing program, today he is known only to serious students of the war.Drawing heavily on his meticulously kept wartime journals, Balck discusses his childhood and his career through the First and Second World Wars. His memoir details the command decision-making process as well as operations on the ground during crucial battles, including the Battle of the Marne in World War I and his incredible victories against a larger and better-equipped Soviet army at the Chir River in World War II. Balck also offers observations on Germany's greatest generals, such as Erich Ludendorff and Heinz Guderian, and shares his thoughts on international relations, domestic politics, and Germany's place in history. Available in English for the first time in an expertly edited and annotated edition, this important book provides essential information about the German military during a critical era in modern history.

The Commentaries of C. Julius Csar on his War in Gaul

# data[].attributes.description
Csar portrayed his invasion of Gaul as being a defensive pre-emptive action. Most historians agree that the wars were fought primarily to boost Csar's political career and to pay off his massive debts. Even so, Gaul was extremely important to Rome, as they had been attacked many times by the Gauls. Conquering Gaul allowed Rome to secure the natural border of the river Rhine. Csar painstakingly describes his military campaign, and this is still the most important historical source on the Gaul campaign. It is also a masterwork of political propaganda, as Csar was keenly interested in manipulating his readers in Rome as he published this book just as the Roman Civil war began. W. A. Macdevitt's definitive translation, complete with nearly 300 linked footnotes, brings this landmark historic book alive.

A scarcity of natural resources. The challenge to protect biodiversity and the global climate. Rapid economic growth and urbanisation in Asia and the developing world. Changing demographics and an ageing population. The impact of new digital technologies. Consumer expectations for services, experiences and social interaction. An imperative to innovate.

Megatrends are gradual yet powerful trajectories of change that have the potential to throw companies, individuals and societies into freefall. In Global Megatrends author Stefan Hajkowicz identifies these seven patterns of global change and tells a story about how the world will change over the next 20 years.

The book captures the thinking of many dedicated scientists and researchers who have devoted their careers to exploring and understanding change.

"Well...What Did the Doctor Say?": Stories From the Bedside

# data[].attributes.description
A collection of essays from my Knoxville Focus newspaper column, "The Doctor Is In." I write for joy rather than an assignment, because my real job is practicing internal medicine and geriatrics. These essays were often prompted by patients' stories shared with me over forty years of medical care. The essays are in no particular order. I've tried to mix humorous stories with others focused on science, medicine, history, philosophy, spirituality, art, travel, and yes, some politics. Each essay can be read in five minutes, just long enough for one sitting - however, two stories might occasionally be necessary. And if you find that three are required, you might need to consult your doctor! I hope you enjoy the stories as much as I did crafting them.
