LOST IN THE 50'S is a trip back in time to memories of the
growing-up process of present generations. The tales are of what it
was like to be a farm kid in a rural area where families had to
depend on each other for survival. Children learned the lessons of
life not through mediums like televisions or computers, but through
imagination, creativity, and role-models. It was a time of
innocence; pleasures and rewards were simple.We grew up with little
instructions: the first kiss; sex education or lack of it; how to
flirt; how to dress; how to show respect and also gain from it.
These tales will bring smiles, even laughter; adventure; romance;
superstition; family unity; and sibling rivalry. Find an easy
chair, sip that cup of coffee, put on reading glasses, and go back
with me to my world.
This book highlights the basic concepts underpinning the OSCE, its
development and implementation in practice. Practical guidelines
and tips are provided based on the authors' extensive experience
gained over 40 years. Case studies are included to illustrate the
OSCE's use in a wide range of settings and professions to assess
the expected learning outcomes. The text is supplemented with
personal accounts and anecdotes. Used globally in all phases of
education in the different healthcare professions, the OSCE was
first described by the lead author, Harden, in 1975 and it is now
the gold standard for performance assessment. "This book is an
invaluable addition. It pulls together in one place pretty well
everything that is known about the OSCE; what works and what
doesn't. It is a welcome addition to the bookshelf of any
educational leader." Geoff Norman's Foreword This book provides a
full understanding of the basic concepts underpinning the OSCE and
shows how to implement an OSCE effectively and efficiently in a
variety of contexts. It includes case studies demonstrating the use
of the OSCE in practice in a range of different fields. Practical
guidelines and tips are provided based on the authors' extensive
experience.
Eminent defense officials, scholars, and military officers offer
a thoughtful, comprehensive, and well balanced evaluation of U.S.
defense technology in this highly-informative volume. They
carefully analyze such difficult questions as: What technologies
should be pursued and for what purposes? How should these
technologies be pursued and integrated into U.S. defense posture?
What are the implications of America's increasing reliance on
advanced technology? Throughout the book, the contributors provide
cogent answers to these questions and more as they seek to
illuminate understanding, clarify debates, and promote
contributions of advanced technology to U.S. defense and security.
Defense Technology offers both the interested citizen and the
serious student of U.S. national security affairs a broad range of
reasonable positions on the problems, prospects, and consequences
of America's reliance on advanced technology in its national
defense.
In its six comprehensive parts, "Defense Technology" offers
vital information on its controversial topic. Part One introduces
the role of technology in U.S. national security. Next, the
contributors set the context of defense technology: its importance,
its context in U.S. approaches to foreign and defense policy, its
implications in international affairs, and the dilemmas it poses
for U.S. policymakers. Part Three and Four present assessments of
opportunities for exploiting advanced technologies in both
strategic and conventional military force capabilities. In part
five, experts examine various approaches for organizing and
managing the development and integration of defense technology into
the U.S. defense sector. The final part offers insights into the
broad implications that emerge from the conclusions about these
important questions.
