Плохо, когда тебя из знакомого спортзала забрасывает в чужое тело, но еще хуже, когда это самое тело оказывается в гуще воздушного боя, на дирижабле, атакуемом пиратами. Ты добрался до города? Что ж, опальному дворянину с одной шпагой и десятком монет в кармане тут рады не больше чем на палубе пиратского дирижабля.

The medium bomber 'workhorse' of the Ninth Air Force, Martin's much-maligned B-26 Marauder recovered from its poor start with the Eighth Air Force to go on and equip no less than eight bomber groups in the ETO. Although initially dubbed 'the widow maker', a change of tactics from low- to medium-level bombing for the Marauder soon improved the crews' chances of survival – indeed, by war's end it boasted a lower loss-per-sortie ratio than any other twin-engined bomber in the USAAF. This volume covers all aspects of Marauder operations in Western Europe during World War II (1939-1945), featuring first hand accounts from surviving B-26 crews, plus an analysis of the tactics employed.

Учебник написан коллективом японских специалистов, накопивших большой опыт преподавания японского языка иностранцам и воплотивших этот опыт в данной книге. Несомненным достоинством данного учебника является и то обстоятельство, что авторы исходят из реальной жизни, а не из неких устоявшихся формальных канонов. Такой подход особенно заметен в изложении грамматической структуры языка. Это делается не в виде академических комментариев, а через введение образцов повседневной разговорной речи современных японцев. Живая, понятная манера изложения материала позволяет преодолевать определенный психологический барьер в отношении японского языка.

Law Enforcement Officers' Manual of Offensive and Defensive Techniques. One of the lesser-known of the "practical, real world combat" greats! Martone certainly knew his business, and the practical realism and functionality of the material described in this excellent little book makes it a "must acquire" item for the professional combatives teacher and the serious student, alike! Martone’s book, although long out of print, is well worth searching for. In it he explains very clearly the factors needed for success in hand-to-hand combat, and then proceeds to explain the basis of what anyone aspiring to practical proficiency needs to know. Getting and staying in shape. How to stand and move. (Martone teaches a basic fighting stance, which is good, of you must take a stance, but — like Applegate’s stance in Kill Or Get Killed, is largely superfluous for self-defense. Why get into a stance that betrays a readiness to do battle? Better a relaxed-but-ready stance that prepares you but that does not betray the fact that you are ready for action). What is good about the stance material is the footwork. Having been a boxer (and one of Jack Dempsey’s sparring partners), Martone bases all footwork on the Western boxer’s model — which we do, similarly, in American Combato — and which makes a thousand times the sense that all of the elaborate and exotic stance work drills and movements make, that are taught in most of the classical/traditional martial arts. Most welcome is Martone’s simplified way of describing the body’s vital points. Instead of enumerating dozens of vital targets (of which, when put to the test of real combat, are hardly all that reliable, at all) Martone reduces his advocacy to a few core targets — and those he describe make sense. We have always agreed with Rex Applegate on this matter of vital points. The human body has about a dozen or so for the purpose of fast-moving, genuine, dangerously serious hand-to-hand combat. Martone is sensible and worth paying attention to, as is Applegate. Emphasizing that the open rather than the closed hand is the better weapon for serious combat (something, we hope the reader will note, is coming from a professionally qualified boxer. Jack Dempsey, when training Coast Guardsmen in close combat, along with his colleague, Bernard Cosneck, the wrestler, stressed this fact, too) the first blow urged by him is the edge-of-the-hand blow. Martone does not emphasize the thumb up position taught by Fairbairn and Applegate for the edge-of-the-hand blow, but illustrates a version closer to that utilized by Brown and Begala who developed and taught the U.S. Naval Aviation Cadet’s Course in hand-to-hand combat, during WWII. John Martone also describes the fingertips thrust to the solar plexus (a blow that we were trained in also, by a former FBI Instructor who had learned the blow from Fairbairn during WWII). We personally do not care for this blow, but we have no doubt about its efficacy when properly rendered — particularly against an adversary wearing light outer clothing — and for those who like it, go for it. More good, simple stuff follows throughout the book. Ramming fingers into the eyes, using the fingers to apply a pincher-grip to the windpipe, and employing a seizure-and-crushing action with the hand in order to attack the testicles. Good, simple, reliable doctrine that WORKS. We especially like Martone’s advocating — and illustrating — open hand claw-ripping to the face. This is somewhat reminiscent of Fairbairn’s excellent Tiger’s Claw attack, and this is the kind of material that is needed when the you-know-what hits the fan! Forget all of the pretty and acrobatic stuff! Thank goodness John Martone has forgotten and completely discarded all of the fluff in this book! There are some good, simple reactive defense actions described, and the counter weapon skills are very good. Very similar to Applegate’s. Martone provides some superb guidelines for police officers — similar to the material that we advocate for our students who work in law enforcement. We note — appreciatively! — that Martone’s advice would in some instances be regarded with raised eyebrows in today’s major urban police academies. For example, Martone advises: Never give an adversary a break in any fight. Amen. Doubtless, the tone of that (as a lawyer might say) conveys a bit too much aggressiveness for the modern, sensitive public. (Would that members of the public were more sensitive to the horrific dangers that police face when engaging felons in hand-to-hand battle!). We would have liked to have seen a bit more emphasis on kicking in this book — most specifically the side stomping type kick. On balance we’d rate this book as being among the top 50? all time great texts that have been written in English on the subject of self-defense and close combat.

Книга посвящена новому научному направлению — исследованию древней и средневековой хронологии Руси при помощи новых методик датирования древних событий, предложенных авторами в предыдущих публикациях, в частности, в книге А. Т. Фоменко «Методы математического анализа исторических текстов. Приложения к хронологии», Москва, изд-во «Наука», 1996 г. Обнаружены серьезные противоречия между традиционной исторической точкой зрения и результатами применения новых методов датирования. Предлагается новая концепция, одним из характерных отличий которой является существенное «укорачивание истории». Книга является уникальным явлением в мировой научной литературе, открывает возможности для дальнейших исследований. Предназначена для самых широких кругов читателей; интересующихся применением естественнонаучных методов в гуманитарных науках.
