Counterterror Offensives for the Ghost War World

The Rudiments of Counterterrorism Policy

By: Richard J. Chasdi

In Counterterror Offensives for the Ghost War World: The Rudiments of Counterterrorism Policy, Richard J. Chasdi has written a groundbreaking quantitative analysis that provides new insight into which types of counterterror practices work best and which types perform poorly in particular operational environments and circumstances. For Chasdi, "effectiveness" is defined as the capacity of counterterror practices to work with "stealth"-namely, without eliciting high amounts of related follow-up terrorist assaults. He moves beyond individual country analyses to tackle an analysis of counterterror practice effectiveness based on the type of political system of the country carrying out counterterror offensives and the power level of that country within the international political system. Chasdi furthermore provides essential qualitative descriptions of national security institutions, stakeholders, and processes to frame his quantitative results in ways that tie those findings to historical and contemporary political developments.

Creation: "Behold, it was very good."

Creation: "Behold, it was very good."

By: Richard Schaefer

Author Richard A. Schaefer was a lifelong communicator, fascinated by stories and, like any good journalist, dug for the facts and verified sources, exploring nagging questions such as "Is creation or evolution more credible, based on science and expert opinions?" This book truly represented a personal passion of looking at all sides of the CREATION vs. EVOLUTION issue. He called on many experts and theorists-including Charles Darwin himself. Surprisingly, Darwin was far more skeptical of his own theories than are many PhDs today, and admitted to significant holes in his logic. Read for yourself, as great thinkers explore the pros and cons of both theories and their variants.

Investing for a Lifetime

Managing Wealth for the "New Normal"

By: Richard C. Marston

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Investing for a Lifetime

Managing Wealth for the "New Normal"

By: Richard C. Marston

Investing for a Lifetime is designed to make saving and investing understandable to the investor. Wharton Professor Richard C. Marston, 2014 recipient of the Investment Management Consultants Association’s prestigious Matthew R. McArthur Award, guides an investor through the main investment decisions throughout a lifetime. Investing for a Lifetime shows: how younger investors can set savings goals how both younger and older investors can choose investment portfolios to achieve these goals how investors can sustain spending once reaching retirement. Younger and older investors alike should understand savings goals that will provide enough income to sustain spending in retirement. They should devise rates of saving that allow them to reach their goals by the time of retirement. Though retirement is often the main goal of investing, it’s not the only one. Marston discusses how funding a child’s education or saving for a down payment for a home affects overall saving. Sensible investing is also necessary for savings goals to be realized. Investing need not be complicated, but Marston explains that a diversified portfolio should include a mix of different types of U.S. stocks, foreign stocks, real estate as well as bonds. He describes each of these asset classes and shows how they fit in an investor’s portfolio. He shows how investors can monitor the performance of their portfolios by establishing benchmarks for each asset class to judge how well their investments are doing. He focuses particular attention on those investors nearing retirement. In today’s low interest rate environment, he discusses whether it is possible to fund retirement from interest and dividends alone. He shows how savings combined with Social Security can fund retirement spending. And he asks how the “New Normal” of lower returns might force investors to save more than in past decades, and to spend less in retirement than in the past. Investing for a Lifetime is for investors who want to understand more about the savings and investment process, particularly those who worry about whether their retirement savings will last a lifetime.

The American Villain

Encyclopedia of Bad Guys in Comics, Film, and Television

By: Richard A. Hall

The American Villain: Encyclopedia of Bad Guys in Comics, Film, and Television seeks to provide one go-to reference for the study of the most popular and iconic villains in American popular culture. Since the 1980s, pop culture has focused on what makes a villain a villain. The Joker, Darth Vader, and Hannibal Lecter have all been placed under the microscope to get to the origins of their villainy. Additionally, such bad guys as Angelus from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Barnabas Collins from Dark Shadows have emphasized the desire for redemption—in even the darkest of villains. Various incarnations of Lucifer/Satan have even gone so far as to explore the very foundations of what we consider "evil." The American Villain: Encyclopedia of Bad Guys in Comics, Film, and Television seeks to collect all of those stories into one comprehensive volume. The volume opens with essays about villains in popular culture, followed by 100 A–Z entries on the most notorious bad guys in film, comics, and more. Sidebars highlight ancillary points of interest, such as authors, creators, and tropes that illuminate the motives of various villains. A glossary of key terms and a bibliography provide students with resources to continue their study of what makes the "baddest" among us so bad.

Corporate Security Crossroads

Responding to Terrorism, Cyberthreats, and Other Hazards in the Global Business Environment

By: Richard J. Chasdi

Even though terrorism poses an increasing threat to multinational companies, corporate leaders can thwart attacks by learning to navigate the complexities of foreign governments, social unrest, and cultural dissonance. Multinational corporations are on the front lines of terrorism and cyberattacks—two of the world's biggest threats to global security. How can corporate leaders mitigate their organizations' risks and develop an infrastructure that detects and deters a security menace before it happens? This timely reference lays out essential political context and historical background to help executives identify contemporary threats and understand the interconnections between threat dynamics in an increasingly dangerous international environment. This compelling work is organized into seven chapters. The beginning chapters profile the specific risks for multinational companies and detail which global—and regional—factors might propagate violence targeted at American-based businesses. Next, two historical case studies on terrorist assaults at Tigantourine and Mombasa illustrate how counterterrorism can successfully thwart potential attacks against business targets. The final part describes industrial espionage and criminal activity and then outlines a corporate counterterror blueprint to combat the prospect of terrorism, providing specific recommendations for preventative measures.

Forbidden Fruit

Counterfactuals and International Relations

By: Richard Ned Lebow

Could World War I have been averted if Franz Ferdinand and his wife hadn't been murdered by Serbian nationalists in 1914? What if Ronald Reagan had been killed by Hinckley's bullet? Would the Cold War have ended as it did? In Forbidden Fruit, Richard Ned Lebow develops protocols for conducting robust counterfactual thought experiments and uses them to probe the causes and contingency of transformative international developments like World War I and the end of the Cold War. He uses experiments, surveys, and a short story to explore why policymakers, historians, and international relations scholars are so resistant to the contingency and indeterminism inherent in open-ended, nonlinear systems. Most controversially, Lebow argues that the difference between counterfactual and so-called factual arguments is misleading, as both can be evidence-rich and logically persuasive. A must-read for social scientists, Forbidden Fruit also examines the binary between fact and fiction and the use of counterfactuals in fictional works like Philip Roth's The Plot Against America to understand complex causation and its implications for who we are and what we think makes the social world work.

Self-Determination Theory

Basic Psychological Needs in Motivation, Development, and Wellness

By: Richard Ryan,Edward L. Deci

Among the most influential models in contemporary behavioral science, self-determination theory (SDT) offers a broad framework for understanding the factors that promote human motivation and psychological flourishing. In this authoritative work, SDT cofounders Richard M. Ryan and Edward L. Deci systematically review the theory's conceptual underpinnings, empirical evidence base, and practical applications across the lifespan. Ryan and Deci demonstrate that supporting people's basic needs for competence, relatedness, and autonomy is critically important for virtually all aspects of individual and societal functioning."--Jacket.

Toward a Grammar of Passages

By: Richard M. Coe,Conference on College Composition and Communication (U.S.)

Richard M. Coe has developed such a “grammar,” one which uses a simple graphic instrument to analyze the meaningful relationships between sentences in a passage and to clarify the function of structure in discourse. Working in the tradition of Christensen’s generative rhetoric, Coe presents a two-dimensional graphic matrix that effectively analyzes the logical relations between statements by mapping coordinate, subordinate, and superordinate relationships. Coe demonstrates the power of his discourse matrix by applying it to a variety of significant problems, such as how to demonstrate discourse differences between cultures (especially between Chinese and English), how to explain precisely what is “bad” about the structure of passages that do not work, and how best to teach structure. This new view of the structure of passages helps to articulate crucial questions about the relations between form and function, language, thought and culture, cognitive and social processes.

Pricewaterhousecoopers Guide to the New Tax Law

By: Richard J. Berry,Bernard S. Kent

MAKE DOLLARS AND SENSE OF THE NEW TAX LAW! The brand new $1.35 trillion tax relief act, which introduced hundreds of changes in United States tax law, is a hundred-page maze of detail. Let the tax experts at PricewaterhouseCoopers, the nation's largest accounting firm, lead you through the often-bewildering reforms and show you how to profit from this new law. In easy, accessible language, they will teach you the best ways to invest your money, organize your small business, save for your kids' education, plan for your retirement, and secure your future. Starting this year, you'll benefit from sweeping changes in areas like estate tax, relief for married couples, dependent care and child tax credits, and contribution limits for retirement plans. But while the 2001 Tax Relief Act offers the largest tax cut in two decades, it creates many tricky issues for taxpayers. Inside you'll find clear answers to hundreds of questions, including: * Should you take advantage of the increased contribution limits to an Education IRA, even though it may hurt your chances of getting financial aid? * Should your new small business be a regular corporation? Or will organizing as an LLC or an S-Corporation save you money? * Will deferring income to a later year when rates are lower trigger the dreaded Alternative Minimum Tax? * Can you deem your stocks to have been sold and repurchased on January 2, 2001 to be eligible for the new super-long-term capital gains rate? * Can you take advantage of additional "catch-up" contributions to a qualified retirement plan? In this comprehensive, easy-to-understand guide, the leading experts at PricewaterhouseCooper provide unique insights, savvy suggestions, and vivid examples that will help you minimize your taxes while maximizing your savings--no matter your income level!
