Summary

In "Submarine and Anti-submarine," Henry John Sir Newbolt presents a meticulous examination of naval warfare during the early 20th century, particularly focusing on the strategic interplay between submarine and anti-submarine tactics. Newbolt employs a clear, engaging literary style, blending technical analysis with historical narrative, which situates the book within the context of World War I naval strategy. He skillfully navigates the complexities of emerging submarine technology and its implications for naval power, reflecting the anxieties and innovations characteristic of this turbulent era. Newbolt, a prominent British poet, historian, and public figure, was deeply invested in the naval traditions of his time, having served in various capacities that provided him with firsthand insight into military affairs. His commitment to capturing the essence of nautical strategy and its ramifications was likely fueled by both his literary inclinations and his experiences as a lifelong advocate for the Royal Navy. This unique perspective allows Newbolt to articulate the tension between aggression and defense within maritime operations, a theme that resonates throughout the text. "Submarine and Anti-submarine" is invaluable for historians and military enthusiasts alike, as it offers a profound understanding of naval doctrine and its evolution. Newbolt'Äôs ability to distill complex concepts into accessible prose makes this work both informative and engaging. For those interested in the intricacies of maritime warfare and its historical context, this book is an essential addition to their library.

    The creatures inhabiting the water, air, and earth were held in veneration by all races of antiquity. Realizing that visible bodies are only symbols of invisible forces, the ancients worshiped the Divine Power through the lower kingdoms of Nature, because those less evolved and more simply constituted creatures responded most readily to the creative impulses of the gods. The sages of old studied living things to a point of realization that God is most perfectly understood through a knowledge of His supreme handiwork--animate and inanimate Nature. 
    Every existing creature manifests some aspect of the intelligence or power of the Eternal One, who can never be known save through a study and appreciation of His numbered but inconceivable parts. When a creature is chosen, therefore, to symbolize to the concrete human mind some concealed abstract principle it is because its characteristics demonstrate this invisible principle in visible action. Fishes, insects, animals, reptiles, and birds appear in the religious symbolism of nearly all nations, because the forms and habits of these creatures and the media in which they exist closely relate them to the various generative and germinative powers of Nature, which were considered as prima-facie evidence of divine omnipresence.

    For the past twelve years, the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap Report has ranked Iceland number one on its list of countries closing the gap in equality between men and women. What is it about Iceland that makes many women's experience there so positive? Why has their society made such meaningful progress in this ongoing battle, from electing the world's first female president to passing legislation specifically designed to help even the playing field at work and at home? And how can we learn from what Icelanders have already discovered about women's powerful place in society and how increased fairness benefits everyone? 
     
     
     
    Eliza Reid, the First Lady of Iceland, examines her adopted homeland's attitude toward women—the deep-seated cultural sense of fairness, the influence of current and historical role models, and, crucially, the areas where Iceland still has room for improvement. Reid's own experience as an immigrant from small-town Canada who never expected to become a first lady is expertly interwoven with interviews with dozens of sprakkar ("extraordinary women") to form the backbone of an illuminating discussion of what it means to move through the world as a woman, and how the rules of society play more of a role in who we view as "equal" than we may understand.
