Cold War Statesmen Confront the Bomb: Nuclear Diplomacy Since 1945 is a path-breaking work that uses biographical techniques to test one of the most important and widely debated questions in international politics: Did the advent of the nuclear bomb prevent the Third World War? Many scholars and much conventional wisdom assumes that nuclear deterrence has prevented major power war since the end of the Second World War; this remains a principal tenet of US strategic policy today. Others challenge this assumption, and argue that major war would have been `obsolete' even without the bomb. This book tests these propositions by examining the careers of ten leading Cold War statesmen-Harry S Truman; John Foster Dulles; Dwight D. Eisenhower; John F. Kennedy; Josef Stalin; Nikita Krushchev; Mao Zedong; Winston Churchill; Charles De Gaulle; and Konrad Adenauer-and asking whether they viewed war, and its acceptability, differently after the advent of the bomb. The book's authors argue almost unanimously that nuclear weapons did have a significant effect on the thinking of these leading statesmen of the nuclear age, but a dissenting epilogue from John Mueller challenges this thesis.

Since the appearance of simplified 3D sketching programs like SketchUp, architects and interior designers have been called on to use both freehand and 3D CAD drawings, often at very earliest stages of design. Since we must often go back and forth between analytical plan views and 3D visual views, it's important that this be a seamless process, requiring little disruptive action or break in the workflow. Integrated Drawing Techniques closes the gap between creativity and geometry, teaching beginner architects and interior designers how to design their residential interiors using freehand sketching and computer-aided design simultaneously. From concept planning to 3D rendering, this book is a comprehensive guide to designing residences by hand and computer.

ANATOMY of MEDIA Myths. Behaviors. Influence. TIPPING POINT PHENOMENA This just released, ground-breaking book by Dr. Philip Gordon, Ph.D details three recent media case studies which were selected on the basis of common Tipping Point Attributes. Each case study involved "contagiousness" and "stickiness" during their development, and each arrived at a "dramatic moment in time," which can only be characterized by the phenomenon of Tipping Points. ANATOMY of MEDIA provides a research and academic perspective for analyzing and predicting media myths, behaviors and influences relative to global events. Fact-filled and up-to-date commentary, informative and innovative, and valuable reading for scholars, researchers and media watchers who want a candid and unique framework for understanding and interpreting the media revolution that is going on right now The first case study: "Myths" The 2008 Presidential Campaign of Barack Obama was chosen to examine a narrower scope and time frame for the application of the tipping point analysis. In contrast to the second case study: "Behaviors" The International Financial Crisis of 2007-2010 which involves a broader study period to identify trends and more complex tipping point issues. The third study: "Influences" The issue of Climate Change is included as consideration because the research and analysis revealed critical relationships between media impact and global events. The clock is ticking... As the issue of Climate Change is still evolving, Dr. Gordon provides a methodology and parameters for analyzing and predicting our planets' most pressing Media Tipping Points.

Tipping Points as evidenced in global events are, in many ways, influenced by media. This just released, ground-breaking book GLOBAL EVENTS: TIPPING POINTS by Dr Philip Gordon, Ph.D, details three case studies which were selected on the basis of common Tipping Point Attributes. Each involved media contagiousness and stickiness during their development and each arrived at a "dramatic moment in time," which could be characterized by the phenomenon of Tipping Points. Recent GLOBAL EVENTS: TIPPING POINTS Case Studies: The 2008 Presidential Campaign of Barack Obama was chosen to examine a narrower scope and timeframe for the application of the analysis. The International Financial Crisis of 2007-2010, involves a broader data study period to identify trends and more complex issues. And the Climate Change study is included for consideration as the research and analysis revealed critical relationships between media impact and global events. As the issue of Climate Change is still evolving, Dr Gordon provides a Global Events: Tipping Point Theory methodology for analyzing and predicting our planets' most pressing global issue. Dr Philip Gordon, Ph.D was awarded his doctorate (with high honors) from the Centre d'Etudes Diplomatiques et Strategiques (CEDS) Paris, France and graduated with his masters while on a full fellowship from Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland. He currently lives in Burgundy, France with his wife and two sons. Review Comments: "The genius of the formulation of GLOBAL EVENTS: TIPPING POINTS is that it takes explicit account of the role of social media and the internet at facilitating bifurcations and promoting dynamical instability. In effect, we have trimmed a few feet of tail off the kite.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? Renew my body, set at 17. -Allen Ginsberg 1988, Chicago. Stare deeply into the watery blue eyes of an elderly and wheelchair bound man, pull back and you'll find yourself surrounded by the serenity of the manicured lawn of the Thousand Oaks Convalescent Hospital... his home for the past 30 years. Physical examinations must be done periodically, as with all of the elderly. For David Jason, it's an opportunity to briefly escape the confines of this limited world. Today's ambulance ride with his nurse and confidant, Angela Ryan, to Lakeview General Hospital will be unlike any other;...it will alter his life forever... embarking on man-kind's most impossible dream...a second.chance...to go through life again knowing what he knows now. On the way to the hospital there is a terrible accident, a collision between the ambulance and a careening eighteen wheeler out of control Angela is thrown clear, and David a concussion and deep lacerations; he is fortunate. Tests are done, and their conclusions are shocking. It seems as though David's cells are multiplying at an alarming rate, reversing metabolically to such an extent that he is actually regressing in age He may only have 6 months to live, as the physiological trauma of the regeneration process is determined to be too much for his life support systems. Further tests are performed: his condition constantly monitored by his faithful nurse. His injuries heal at an astonishing rate While visually he begins to appear noticeably younger, he goes through spells of strength and coherence then lapses into unexplainable periods of severe pain and near death states. Angela reviews his records, and finds nothing regarding his past no family contacts, no prior addresses, no medical information prior to his admittance on October 11, 1958. She suspects foul play and has him transferred out of Thousand Oaks. With the assistance of a retired ex-cop turned private investigator, Vince Carpeski, and a curious friend, Dr. Conrad Hoffman, an unresolved mysterious and suspenseful trail of a medical cover-up is revealed] The case was thought to have been sealed thirty years ago with the murder of a prominent hospital chief-of-staff surgeon who was on the verge of going public with damaging research fraud allegations. A multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical firm, Medtech, is implicated. A desperate man of corruption and greed, SydUnderwood, is found to have masterminded the scheme. As David and Angela race against time in their search for answers and truth, a once-in-a-lifetime love is rediscovered; a "fountain of youth" becomes a reality, giving love a chance to blossom again. If only for a moment, medical technology reaches into the future, sending shivering moments of enlightenment to strike deep into the soul, as justice is served The story moves between the forces of good and evil, eternal hope and despair as the PENDULUM swings to an engaging and masterfully written climax, offering our hearts and dreams...the possibility...of a second chance.

The Zodiac Project is an insightful "wayfinding" technique for understanding our spiritual energy journey. Dr Gordon presents his concept as pure written poetry...a beautiful approach to the meaning and purpose of life. Few will be unmoved by his passion and eloquence.

"Climate change is already having sweeping effects on every continent and throughout the world's oceans, scientists report...and they warned that the problem was likely to grow substantially worse unless greenhouse emissions are brought under control. The report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a United Nations group that periodically summarizes climate science, concluded that ice caps are melting, sea ice in the Arctic is collapsing, water supplies are coming under stress, heat waves and heavy rains are intensifying, coral reefs are dying, and fish and many other creatures are migrating toward the poles or in some cases going extinct. The oceans are rising at a pace that threatens coastal communities and are becoming more acidic as they absorb some of the carbon dioxide given off by cars and power plants, which is killing some creatures or stunting their growth, the report found...etc" - New York Times, March 31st, 2014. A must read about our most pressing global issue: Climate Change: Tipping Points Tipping Points are in many ways, influenced by media. This just released, ground-breaking book by Dr Philip Gordon, Ph.D details the Climate Change issue which is analyzed on the basis of Tipping Point Theory Attributes and Characteristics. Currently, media contagiousness and stickiness are influencing the Climate Change "epidemic" with contrasting and misleading information and soon the "dramatic moment in time" will arrive, where the culmination of man made impacts will be irreversible, which are characterized by the phenomenon known as: the Tipping Point. As the issue of Climate Change is still evolving, Dr Gordon provides a methodology and parameters for analyzing and predicting our planets' most pressing global issue. The challenge is to harness and focus our global media agendas and priorities before it's too late.
