Corner of page 731/2 creased. Ink notations added to page 732. Somewhat shaken. Wells born 1946 is an American public servant and educator who served a total of 51 years in government. He served 26 years in the United States Navy as an officer and then was appointed by the White House as the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense serving through two administrations of both parties. He wrote many books articles and white papers. His writings significantly altered U.S. and international approaches to civil-military engagement US policy in global humanitarian assistance and public-private partnerships in disaster relief. The book is encyclopedic. The authors spent decades tracking down details about the design construction and deployment of the cruisers of the Imperial Japanese Navy which they describe with a generous supplement of photographs charts and line drawings. They give a detailed account of the planning design and construction and the numerous prewar and wartime modifications of the individual ships of each cruiser class. Prewar and wartime histories of the ships are reported with ship movements combat experience damage refits modifications and final fate listed. Derived from a review by Anthony P. Tully found on-line: Eric Lacroix and Linton Wells II's Japanese Cruisers of the Pacific War is one of those truly memorable references that becomes a lasting part of naval literature. Comparable reference works include Norman Friedman's outstanding works on the U.S. Navy. With its comprehensive discussion of Japanese cruiser design and development coupled with a complete operational history of each vessel Japanese Cruisers goes far toward filling major gaps not only in the design but in the battle history of the Imperial Japanese Navy. One of the book's strengths is in how it chronicles the relationship between the development of the various cruiser designs and the turmoil of the pre-war years. How these considerations influenced such diverse factors as machinery and hull strength to tonnage is set forth and extensively footnoted. The net result is a clearer understanding not only of the intended role of the cruisers but of the surface ships of the fleet in general. The core of the book lies in its meticulous analysis and dissection of the design of each cruiser class complete with more than 200 plans profiles and cutaway views ranging from superstructure towers to boiler and bulkhead arrangements. Equally significant these plans and diagrams follow the full range of the ships career with wartime modifications fully discussed. Notable among these is the inclusion of several diagrams of damage sustained in action. The illustrations and photographs have been chosen with care and many of them have never been published outside of Japan or indeed - in some cases - at all. The captions are carefully researched and where necessary the authors have corrected previous erroneous labeling or dating of published prints. The Operational histories though secondary to the design focus of the book is nonetheless one of its important assets and makes it an essential part of even the non-specialist's library. Organization and Orders of Battle of Japanese Cruiser divisions are described and followed in chronological order per ship relying extensively on never translated Japanese microfilm records the official histories and innumerable modern works in Japan. Each capsule history follows the vessel from its commissioning to its ultimate fate and gives the names of commanding officers and dates of assuming command. However this applies only to the heavy cruisers; the light cruiser commanders are not named. The authors provide a singularly valuable and detailed set of appendixes. These describe among other things the Organization of the Imperial Navy its specialized terms and designations of ordnance an overview of the heads of the shipbuilding department from 1920 to war's end discussion of machinery and aeronautical equipment and a host of tables and studies. All of these providing a comprehensive and readable introduction to the larger context of the Imperial Navy and its form and making for a-must-read for those seeking a broad and clear understanding of the IJN and its terminology as its officers and men understood it. In fact it is the book's dedication to using the actual Japanese terms and even vowel structure that make it an essential cultural bridge as well. Naval Institute Press hardcover

"Abram Kardiner American physician psychoanalyst psychiatrist and psychocultural theorist was born in New York City on August 17 1891 and died in Easton Connecticut on July 20 1981. A member of the New York Psychoanalytic Society founded in 1911 he was one of the founders in 1930 of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute the first psychoanalytic institute in the United States. Kardiner was instrumental in bringing Sándor Rado from Berlin to be its Educational Director. In 1941 Kardiner left the New York Psychoanalytic Institute because of theoretical and political disputes and in 1945 along with Rado George Daniels and David Levy founded the Columbia University Clinic for Psychoanalytic Training and Research the first psychoanalytic institute that was part of a university medical school. Kardiner was its Director from 1959 to 1967 and Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Columbia University. In the 1950s Kardiner explored critical questions in psychoanalysis that later become integral to psychoanalytic thinking. His first major contribution concerned the impact of culture on personality. This interest arose out of his idea that the curriculum at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute should include Freud's sociological writings. Out of seminars he conducted there in conjunction with anthropologists he began to theorize the impact of particular social institutions on character formation in primitive societies. He developed a psycho-cultural model for the relationship between specific familial patterns and modes of mother-infant bonding and the formation of the "basic personality structure" in different cultures. Published in 1939 as The Individual and His Society this work along with later publications on the same subject had a major influence on the emergence of the "culture and personality field" in anthropology and is considered to be a precursor of the object relations theory and ego psychology in psychoanalysis. Although Kardiner had obser. Columbia University Press hardcover

1975réf. 173823London: Bogle-L'Ouverture Publications Ltd 1975. First edition of the author's scarce second book written while he was still an undergraduate student at the University of London. Dread Beat and Blood "is perhaps the most important commentary on the condition of Black people in British society which any of our poets have achieved so far" front pastedown. The poems are intended to be read aloud and in 1978 formed the basis for the debut album of the same name by Johnson's band Poet and the Roots. Johnson is a Jamaican-born British-based poet and activist for whom "the kind of thing that I write and the way I say it is a result of the tension between Jamaican Creole and Jamaican English and between those and English English. And all that really is the consequence of having been brought up in a colonial society and then coming here to live and go to school in England soon afterwards. The tension builds up. You can see it in the writing" p. 8. Octavo.
