This edited volume provides a convenient entry point to the
cutting-edge field of the international politics of technology, in
an interesting and informative manner. Technology and World
Politics introduces its readers to different approaches to
technology in global politics through a survey of emerging fusions
of Science and Technology Studies and International Relations. The
theoretical approaches to the subject include the Social
Construction of Technology, Actor-Network Theory, the Critical
Theory of Technology, and New Materialist and Posthumanist
approaches. Considering how such theoretical approaches can be used
to analyse concrete political issues such as the politics of
nuclear weapons, Internet governance, shipping containers, the
revolution in military affairs, space technologies, and the
geopolitics of the Anthropocene, the volume stresses the socially
constructed and inherently political nature of technological
objects. Providing the theoretical background to approach the
politics of technology in a sophisticated manner alongside a
glossary and guide to further reading for newcomers, this volume is
a vital resource for both students and scholars focusing on
politics and international relations.
Boy Actors in Early Modern England: Skill and Stagecraft in the
Theatre provides a new approach to the study of early modern boy
actors, offering a historical re-appraisal of these performers'
physical skills in order to reassess their wide-reaching
contribution to early modern theatrical culture. Ranging across
drama performed from the 1580s to the 1630s by all-boy and adult
companies alike, the book argues that the exuberant physicality
fostered in boy performers across the early modern repertory shaped
not only their own performances, but how and why plays were written
for them in the first place. Harry R. McCarthy's ground-breaking
approach to boy performance draws on detailed analysis of a wide
range of plays, thorough interrogation of the cultural contexts in
which they were written and performed, and present-day
practice-based research, offering a critical reimagining of this
important and unique facet of early modern theatrical culture.

This Element provides the first in-depth study of the present-day
all-boy company, Edward's Boys, who are based at King Edward VI
School ('Shakespeare's School') in Stratford-upon-Avon. Since 2005,
the company has produced a wide array of early modern plays,
providing the most substantial repertory of early modern drama
available for examination by scholars. The Element provides a
comprehensive account of the company's practices, drawing on
extensive rehearsal and performance observation, evidence from the
company's archive, and interviews with actors and key company
personnel. The Element takes account of the company's particular
educational and strongly interpersonal environment, suggesting that
these factors have a distinctive shaping force on their performance
practice. In the hands of Edward's Boys, the Element argues, early
modern drama becomes the source of company creation, ensemble
practice, and virtuosic physical play, inviting us to reimagine
what it means - and takes - to perform these plays today.

This is a narrative drawn from the era of the Southeast Asian
conflict, detailing a unique event in that lengthy struggle called
Linebacker II. For the first time in contemporary warfare, heavy
jet bombers were employed for their designed role to conduct
extended strategic operations against the warmaking capacity of a
hostile nation. This monograph tells part of the story of Strategic
Air Command's participation in Linebacker II. In doing so it
addressed the efforts of a complex mixture of Air Force and sister
service operations, with all service working in concern towards a
common goal. Rather than develop a complete chronology or
blow-by-blow account, which are matters of record in other works,
the campaign is pursued more form the personal perspective. Office

I always dreamed of writing my own book. I always have had an
animated amangination. My vision of walking into a book store and
seeing my fashion sketches work of art. Wow, I can only emagin that
the dream is finley arrive for the world to see. I always ask
myself if i did create my own book, what would it be about. Well,
I'm a fashion sketch artist and I always dream of being the center
of attention. So why not put a fashion runway show in a sketch
format. So page after page the fast paste animated unknown walk the
runway. I like to take a chance with color, bold, strong lines,
shapes, faces incorporating images into abstract pieces. So I put
all this into my collection of fashion321 Sketches Of An Unknown.
As i stand here looking in the mirror and asking myself, are you
ready. Are you willing to show your creative skills to the world.
In my earlier years as an art student at The University Of Kutztown
University I was afraid to show off my artistict talents. As my
skills developed throughout the years I attended F.I.T Fashion
Instutue Of Tecnology in New York. A couple or courses here and
there realy help me. As a freshman at Dieruff high school I would
keep my sketches to myself cause I was afraid of others opinions.
As i practice and practice i became more confident in myself and my
work and rest is history in the making.
