Unread and unopened! "Professor Bytwerk's excellent book, Bending Spines, signals a revival of interest in the neglected study of propaganda .... his brilliant study highlights the twin dangers at the core of all such programs. First, that propagandists end up believing their own lies; and second, that the targets of both external and internal propaganda become increasingly cynical as ideology and reality diverge. Bytwerk's archival and field research is impressive. He did research in the GDR before the Berlin Wall came down and he writes with authority and deep understanding .... I predict th... View More...

Unread and unopened! (Hard to list as 'New' when it's 31 years old). Pristine condition. Not issued with DJ. Science is mans attempt to know how the world works; philosophy is his attempt to know why. Scientific philosophy is the application of the techniques of science to the questions of philosophy. Systems theory, a term of varying usage, but one which I employ as a synonym for the cybernetics of W. Ross Ashby (1966a,b) presumes a scientific approach, but is a perspective rather than a branch of science: It is a sort of lens thru which the world may be viewed scientifically, and which bring...

Unread and unopened! (Hard to list as 'New' when it's 31 years old). 2 tiny spots on top outer edges. Recounts one of the 20th century's strangest and most stirring sea adventures -- the successful round-the-globe expedition of the World War I German commerce raider and minelayer Wolf. Breaking the Allied blockade, and disguised as a merchant ship, it sank 135,000 tons of Allied shipping. No German surface raider was more successful than the auxiliary cruiser Wolf. The unimposing steamer was armed with seven 5.9 guns and four torpedo tubes -- all ingeniously camouflaged. For 15 months it fough... View More...
