![]() John F. Haldon, "General Issues in the Study of Medieval Logistics: Sources, Problems And Methodologies" English | 2005 | pages: 302 | ISBN: 9004147691 | PDF | 10,3 mb Logistics is a central concern for military strategists, but the study of logistics in the past entails far more than merely military aspects. The study of resources and their production, distribution and consumption in pre-modern societies, of road-networks and communications, and of transportation, is an essential precondition, so that the study of logistics is also the study of pre-industrial social, economic and spatial organisation. This volume presents a series of papers dealing with the methodological, technical and historical issues associated with the study of logistics in all its aspects, and in particular demonstrates the value of modern computer-modelling and of integrating archaeological, historical and environmental research techniques and agendas into a common project. ![]() Gangland: New Zealand's Underworld of Organised Crime by Jared Savage English | December 2nd, 2020 | ISBN: 1775541622 | 288 pages | EPUB | 26.85 MB Inside New Zealand's underworld of Organised Crime ![]() Games for Your Mind: The History and Future of Logic Puzzles by Jason Rosenhouse English | November 24th, 2020 | ISBN: 0691174075 | 352 pages | EPUB | 4.94 MB A lively and engaging look at logic puzzles and their role in recreation, mathematics, and philosophy ![]() Frontera: Margaritas, Guacamoles, and Snacks by Rick Bayless, Deann Groen Bayless English | November 6th, 2012 | ISBN: 0393088928 | 256 pages | EPUB (True/Retail Copy) | 25.61 MB A brand-new collection from America's leading authority on Mexican cooking. ![]() Friendly Fire: how Israel became its own worst enemy, UK Edition by Ami Ayalon, Anthony David English | December 10th, 2020 | ISBN: 1913348598 | 320 pages | EPUB | 0.42 MB A highly decorated Israeli military officer, leader, and former director of the internal security service, Shin Bet, sees the light on what his country must do to achieve a lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinians. ![]() Ali E.

Championed and defended by Jonas Mekas and Susan Sontag, among others, the film wildly and gleefully transgresses nearly every norm of Hollywood morality and aesthetics. In a surreal and visually dense series of episodes, the titular "creatures" reenact scenes drawn from the collective cinematic unconscious, playing on mainstream film culture's moral code in a way that is at once a love letter to classical Hollywood and a searing send-up of its absurdities. ![]() Gerald Hensely, "Final Approaches: A Memoir" English | 2007 | pages: 329 | ISBN: 1869403789 | PDF | 2,8 mb This memoir presents the life of a distinguished civil servant and gives a fascinating look into a dramatic political career spanning from Singapore to New York City.
