Todo el arte de la guerra está basado en el engaño. Cuando se puede atacar, tenemos que parecer incapaces; cuando usamos nuestras fuerzas, tenemos que parecer inactivos; cuando estamos cerca, tenemos que hacer creer al enemigo que estamos en la lejanía; cuando alejados, tenemos que hacerle creer que estamos al lado.

Il colore grigio-verde della divisa e la penna nera rendono riconoscibile ogni alpino. Ma dietro questi elementi c'è molto di più: emergono valori importanti come la lealtà, il coraggio e l'altruismo. Paolo Campanardi, noto a tutti come Gibba, da sempre coltiva una grande passione per il corpo degli alpini (pur non avendo fatto il servizio militare, con suo sommo rimpianto), ha letto numerosi diari di eroici battaglioni e negli ultimi otto anni ha percorso migliaia di chilometri sulle montagne dell'Alto Garda ricercando tracce e testimonianze dei fatti avvenuti durante la Grande guerra.

No es de extrañar que los clásicos chinos sobre el arte de la guerra sean tan populares en nuestro tiempo. No es tan solo el hecho de que los chinos, tras siglos de guerras, llegaron a un conocimiento profundo de la estrategia y sus circunstancias, sino la forma en que plasmaron ese conocimiento. Allá donde los manuales occidentales se centraban en las siempre cambiantes armas y tácticas, los autores orientales buscaron una visión más universal de este tema y, al mismo tiempo, más humana.

Slaget om Kiev i efteråret 1941 regnes som tidernes største omringningsslag. Det var et resultat af Hitlers og Stalins stædighed og diskuteres fortsat, trods overraskende lidt akademisk interesse sammenlignet med slagets betydning og omfang. Først og fremmest er slaget det vigtigste eksempel på, hvordan de svage tyske formationer kunne udnytte Stalins lammende effekt på sine underordnede i krigens begyndelse og opnå nogle af verdenshistoriens største militære sejre.

The rise and fall of the Nazis is given the Animal Farm treatment as the horrors of Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich are brought to life using animals as the main protagonists. Aircraft include wasps, U-Boats become 'U-Bugs' and Hitler is a dung beetle. The central events in the history of the Nazi party are illustrated including the Munich Beer Hall Putsch, the battle of Stalingrad and the Final Solution. The book is written in rhyme and tells the tale of how Vermen Dungroll and his Fang Brigade came to power. His repudiation of the Treaty of Surrender, his hatred of ladybirds (the Jewish community), red ants and other undesirables. It shows how his political opponents were crushed and how he consolidated his power; rebuilt his country and expanded his empire. His revolutionary fighting methods see his swarms conquer much of western Entom; the soaring achievements peak and then the reversal begins.

America’s global hegemony is based on the petrodollar system and the Russo-Ukraine war is rapidly bringing that system to an end. The end of the petrodollar will be the end of the world order as we have known it since 1945. Though the U.S. petrodollar system is perhaps the most important economic structure in the world, it is almost never discussed in mainstream sources. In Running on Empty, author Alexander Macris traces the circumstances by which the petrodollar system came into being; the disastrous effect that the system had on US domestic and foreign affairs, ranging from ...
