Book Description
In today's information era, the use of specific words and language can serve as powerful tools that incite violence—or sanitize and conceal the ugliness of war. This book examines the complex, "twisted" language of conflict. Why is the term "collateral damage" used when military strikes kill civilians? What is a "catastrophic success"? What is the difference between a privileged and unprivileged enemy belligerent? How does deterrence differ from detente? What does "hybrid warfare" mean, and how is it different from "asymmetric warfare"? How is shell shock different from battle fatigue and PTSD? These are only a few of the questions that Talking Conflict: The Loaded Language of Genocide, Political Violence, Terrorism, and Warfare answers in its exploration of euphemisms, "warspeak," "doublespeak," and propagandistic terms. This handbook of alphabetically listed entries is prefaced by an introductory overview that provides background information about how language is used to obfuscate or minimize descriptions of armed conflict or genocide and presents examples of the major rhetorical devices used in this subject matter. The book focuses on the "loaded" language of conflict, with many of the entries demonstrating the function of given terms as euphemisms, propaganda, or circumlocutions. Each entry is accompanied by a list of cross references and "Further Reading" suggestions that point readers to pertinent sources for further research. This book is ideal for students—especially those studying political science, international relations, and genocide—as well as general readers.

Book Description
In this groundbreaking book, Gibson shatters the misled assumptions for America's failure in Vietnam, showing how American officials developed a disturbingly limited concept of war--what he calls "technowar"--in which all efforts were focused on maximizing the enemy's body count, regardless of the means.

Book Description
"Most Vietnam veterans do not like to talk about their experiences while in that war zone... But Samuel Richardson tells all in this book. Here, Sam doesn't merely depend on his memory of his stories; he uses text straight out of the meticulous journal he kept while in Vietnam... Before going to Vietnam, his father gave him a "father's blessing." This, in the LDS Church, is a typical ceremony aimed at comforting the recipient, and asking God for a variety of blessings for the person receiving the blessing... The narration inside will show how the father's blessing helped Sam to be calm during mortar attacks, and how to resist the many temptations that come to soldiers who find themselves in a war zone."--Back cover.

Gene therapy has inundated Malibu, California, bringing opposition, competition, and the sweet smell of money to everyone at the local medical\ school. Dr. Ahmed Adams, known as Medi to his coworkers, is a junior faculty member at Malibu Med, home to lucrative trials of designer drugs to combat cancer and aging. As Medi works his way through racks of cages and meticulously counts the dead, he realizes the day of reckoning has arrived. Medi thinks he is on his way. With all his hopes of realizing success, fame, and fortune pinned on a study sponsored by Ahlus Inc., a local biotech company, Medi willingly serves as a corporate puppet, even though every woman he meets is more interested in the results of his study than in him. Everything is on the line for Medi and the company that has gambled its future on the outcome of the trials and FDA approval. But when animal rights activists sabotage the testing at Malibu Med, the trial and Ahlus are propelled into a crisis. In this medical thriller, time will tell if Medi is the culprit or the victim of a far-reaching assault by competitors. As his career and the survival of the company hang in the balance, one certainty remains the truth is the last thing anyone wants to see revealed.
