Tracing Your Great War Ancestors: Gallipoli - A Guide for Family Historians

Simon Fowler

Sinopse

Do you have an ancestor who served in the Gallipoli campaign in the First World War? Perhaps you have thought of visiting the battlefields in Turkey and the monuments that commemorate them, and want to find out exactly where and when your ancestor served and what part he played in the landings and the fighting that followed? This practical and informative handbook is an ideal guide to the struggle for the Gallipoli peninsula and the stories of the men who took part in it. Simon Fowler outlines the course of the campaign and introduces the many historical resources that you can use to explore the history for yourself. He identifies the key sources for family historians, including The National Archives in Britain, the Australian War Memorial, and other sources in Australia and New Zealand and the many websites that researchers can turn to, and he gives advice on the literature, archives, museums and monuments that may help you to gain an insight into your ancestor's story.

Book Summary of "Make It Stick" by Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, Mark A. McDanielSummary by FlashBooksABOUT:Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learningby Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, Mark A. McDanielMake It Stick is all about the science of successful learning. (Key word: ’science.’) Most of us believe that, in order to learn something, we should make it as simple as possible for ourselves to do so… After all, if we had a choice between two ways to learn the same thing—one hard, the other easy—wouldn’t it make more sense to make use of the easiest way to learn, rather than the more difficult and effortful method of learning? Make It Stick turns traditional ideas like these on their head. Drawing on recent discoveries in cognitive psychology and other disciplines, the authors offer concrete techniques for becoming more productive learners. Perfect for people of all ages and walks of life—from students to moms to fortune 500 hundred CEOs—the big ideas from Make It Stick can be put to use by all of us interested in strengthening our learning skills and applying them both personally and professionally.

Fun with Patents: The Irreverent...

Kfir Luzzatto

Patents don't have to be a dry and boring subject and inventors, investors and business people may (and should) enjoy using them to their advantage. However, to empower the general public to use the patent system to its fullest extent, the need remains for a book that introduces important patent concepts in a humanly understandable fashion, with down-to-earth, practical advice and, more importantly, which is not boring, as many patent books unavoidably are to readers who are not patent practitioners. 
Kfir Luzzatto, a seasoned patent attorney as well as a fiction writer, has dealt with inventors and entrepreneurs for longer than he cares to admit and has assisted both start-ups and multinational companies with their patent needs, literally all over the world. He now exploits the vast experience that he has acquired working in the Start-Up Nation (Israel), to introduce the reader to important patent concepts, in a fresh and easily understandable manner, with down-to-earth practical advice that is invaluable for investors, entrepreneurs and inventors alike. 
What the Experts Say 
"I've worked with Kfir for many years and I'm always impressed by his insights. I'm excited he has turned his years of experience and gift for clear straight-forward prose (and a touch of irreverence) into this guide, so that the important world of patents can be better understood by inventors, investors and business people across the globe." Larry Granatelli, Chair of the Intellectual Property Practice Group Fenwick & West LLP, Mountain View, CA, USA
