'A Muslim has no nationality except his religious beliefs,' said
Egyptian Sayyid Qutb, a key figure in the world of political Islam
who was executed by the secular regime in his homeland in 1966. For
decades, the ideologues of pan-Islam have refused to accept the
boundaries and the responsibilities of the order of states. In
Trial of a Thousand Years, Charles Hill analyzes the long war of
Islamism against the international state system. Hill places the
Islamists in their proper historical place, showing that they are
but the latest challenge to the requirements that states had placed
on themselves since the international system was born in 1648. The
author describes the many wars on world order over the modern
centuries--the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars, World Wars I
and II, the cold war--and gives a unique historical perspective to
the Islamic challenge of the twenty-first century in Iran,
Afghanistan, and beyond. He concludes that America must not give up
its values; neither should we retreat by declaring that we will
practice them only at home or by telling ourselves that our values
are no more worthy than any others selected at random from among
the world's many cultures. The first step, he says, is to recognize
the problem and then try to develop ways to deal with the
exploitation of asymmetries by the enemies of world order.
Global Business Today sets the standard for International Business
courses and is the proven choice at both the undergraduate and
graduate level. It offers a complete solution that is relevant
(timely, comprehensive), practical (focused on applications of
concepts), and integrated (logical flow of topics from chapter to
chapter). The success of the first eleven editions (and its longer,
more in-depth textbook option, International Business, now in the
13th edition) was based on the incorporation of leading-edge
research, the use of the up-to-date examples and statistics to
illustrate global trends and enterprise strategy, and the
discussion of current events within the context of the appropriate
theory. Building on these strengths, the goals for the 12th edition
have focused on the following: 1. Incorporate new insights from
scholarly research. 2. Make sure the content covers all appropriate
issues. 3. Make sure the text is up-to-date with current events,
statistics, and examples. 4. Add new and insightful opening and
closing cases in most chapters. 5. Incorporate value-added global
EDGE (TM) features in every chapter. 6. Connect every chapter to a
focus on managerial implications.
Looking beneath the surface of strategy, policy, and daily
operations, this book uses the analogy of weaving to review the
United States' historical responsibility for maintaining
international peace and security. Author Charles Hill shows why the
United States must marshal all possible elements in the Middle
East, and supporters from without, to defeat the enemies of order
in the region--and why the U.S. must weave an actively engaged,
omnidirectional involvement to support and interact with whatever
faction, regime, sect, leader, or state that seeks to gain
legitimacy as a good citizen in the established international
system.
The approach to anesthesia in children poses specific challenges
such as acute emotional fear and distress, fluid imbalances,
greater risks for dangerous upper respiratory infections, and most
importantly, dosing requirements. The guest editors on this issue
are the leaders in this field and will collect the best
contributors to address new research advances in perioperative and
postoperative scenarios, as well as offering best practices for
common pediatric procedures.
