Tank Battles of the Cold War...

Anthony Tucker-Jones

As Anthony Tucker-Jones shows in this wide-ranging history, for most of the Cold War the tank retained its pre-eminence on the battlefield. The Arab-Israeli wars witnessed some of the biggest tank battles of all time, and tanks played key roles in conflicts in Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan as well as in the Iran-Iraq War and the wars fought between India and Pakistan. But then in the mid-1960s anti-tank weapons became ever deadlier and the Mechanized Infantry Fighting Vehicle (MIFV), which was designed to support infantry and fight tanks, emerged and the heyday of the tank was over. 
 
 
 
Chapters cover each major phase in the evolution of the tank and of tank warfare during the period, from the battles fought in the late 1940s and 1950s with World War II armored vehicles like the T-34 and the Sherman, through to the designs common in the 1960s and 1970s like the T-55, Centurion, Challenger, and M60 Patton, to the confrontation between the M1 Abrams and the T-72 during the Gulf War in 1991.

Detect and Fend Off Gaslighting...

Anna-Lena Palek

Have you ever had the experience of being manipulated by a person to such an extent that you felt something was wrong with your perception? That you finally started to doubt your perceptive faculty, even your mental health? That you began to lose confidence in your senses because you were regularly told that you were perceiving reality incorrectly? You are not alone in this: this common phenomenon is called gaslighting, and it is a subtle yet serious form of psychological violence that can have lasting effects on the victim's self-esteem.

"I never said that. You're just imagining it."
"It never happened that way."
"You're overreacting."
"You're crazy. You should get help."

In this guidebook, you'll learn not only what exactly gaslighting actually is and how this mechanism works, but also how you can free yourself - and others - from the manipulation trap and ultimately emerge stronger from this crisis.
