Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The American way of war is enabled by the concept of massing all available firepower-when done correctly it makes US forces hard to beat. However improvised explosive devices have increasingly enabled a new kind of asymmetric warfare, one that conventional forces continue to struggle to counter. This book offers a counter-IED playbook, one based upon the author's experiences of over 90 months of combat operations, working the problem sets of Fires, Effects, IEDs, Close Target Reconnaissance, Tracking-Tagging-Locating (TTL), and Information Operations. This text offers insights into the ways through some of the most complicated problems that have tested the Department of Defense, and the Army-the problems of how a conventional force is organized, manned, equipped, and trained to deal with the problem of IEDs; and how the Army is doctrinally organized to deal with an emerging revolution of military affairs. AUTHOR: Colonel Matthew D. Matter (ret.) is a native of Koloa, Hawaii. His education includes a B.A. in Political Science from Colorado State University, a M.A. in International Relations from Webster University, a Masters in Military Arts and Sciences from the US Army War College, and a Masters in Science in Aeronautics from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. He enlisted in the Army in 1984 and was commissioned in 1986. He served for 31 years, of which 12 he spent spent in combat zones. He held multiple positions in numerous special operations formations, including the Rangers, Special Forces, and Special Mission Units. He was a by name request by the Commanding General Multi National Force Iraq during the Surge, and he was a by name request to support the Marines in Afghanistan during their Surge in 2009. From 2011 to 2013 he served as the Deputy to the Deputy Commanding General, J35/J5, in the Office of Defense Representative Pakistan running cross-border operations, as well as leading interagency US C-IED efforts. He has held critical positions in multiple organizations as a commander and fires and information operations coordinator. Since late 2015, he has served as a Civilian Chief of Staff for the United States Navy at Naval Aviation Warfighting at Naval Air Station, Fallon, Northern Nevada. 40 diagrams How conventional forces can adapt to fully address the problem of IEDs and IED-facilitated asymmetric warfare.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'At a time when we are closely examining programs and processes across the Department of Defense, this excellent book by Matt Matter is a valuable resource for planners, policymakers, and leaders across the Defense enterprise. Having watched closely our struggle to contend with and eventually overcome the devastating effects of the improvised explosive device threat, Matt is well qualified to share observations and specific recommendations on not just how we approach asymmetry but, more importantly, how this plays into the future of great power competition and our imperative to prevail in this existential challenge.' - Joseph L.

The Lower Freshwater Molasse of the Fornant and Findreuse sections in Haute-Savoie with a combined stratigraphic thickness of ca. 400 m yielded 31 vertebrate bearing horizons, 18 of which contained rich and diverse faunas representing the most complete micromammal faunal record of the Western Molasse Basin. Magnetostratigraphic dating of these sections provides a greatly improved temporal calibration of the depositional and faunal record between 26 and 21 Ma in this part of the Alpine foreland. The new chronologies allow a provisional calibration of the boundary ages of six assemblage zones: some of which can be specified to <0.1 Ma and most of which require some modification of previously used assemblage-zone boundary ages. Assemblage zones are shown to vary in duration by at least 3-fold and may have durations of <200-300 Kyr. 33 pp., 10 figs, 1 tab, gr. 8.

Au terme du programme de recherche qui a permis d'éditer ces deux ouvrages, sont proposés des bilans et des hypothèses sur les réalités des formes d'emprisonnement ou de mise à l'écart avec leurs implications juridiques, psychologiques, politiques et sociales, sur l'approche conceptuelle de la prison chez les païens et les chrétiens, et sur les fonctions de la prison et plus généralement de l'enfermement dans le monde romain.

Internally clean. First edition. In this work De Broglie set forth the idea that electrons, as was previously regarded as particles, also have wave-quaracters, as well as light has. The idea was tested and confirmed by Davisson and Germer the year after in 1927. Also Schrödinger took up the idea and formulated his wave-equation, explaning the stationary states of the electron of Niels Bohr, by applying De Broglie's concept of electrons as waves to the hydrogen atom. "Thus the duality of both light and matter had been established, and physicists had to come to terms with fundamental particles which defied simple theories and demanded two sets of 'complementary' descriptions, each applicable under certain circumstances, but imcompatible with one another." (PMM: 417).
