An illustrated account of the against-the-odds successes of the MiG-17 “Fresco” in action against US combat aircraft during Operation Rolling Thunder.Following their elite training in the USSR and China, the Vietnam People’s Air Force (VPAF) pilots chosen to fly the MiG-17 achieved some stunning triumphs against the best US fighters committed to action over North Vietnam. The low-speed/high-g maneuvering attacks employed by the communist pilots proved to be highly effective, with the MiG-17’s heavy-caliber cannon inflicting a rising toll on American aircraft including the F-8 Crusader, F-4 Phantom II, and F-105 Thunderchief.Drawing on archival photographs and first-hand accounts from the pilots involved, this engaging new study reveals how a handful of MiG-17 regiments achieved 40 aerial victories over considerably more advanced US combat aircraft types following the commencement of Operation Rolling Thunder in March 1965. Leading VPAF authority István Toperczer’s insightful research and tactical analyses shed fresh light on the important role played by the “Fresco” in the defense of North Vietnam, and are complemented by action-packed ribbon diagrams, as well as battlescene artwork and a detailed cutaway armament view.

After the fall of France in 1940, Germany attempted to strangle Britain into submission by attacking the Atlantic Convoys, which brought much need supplies and war materiel from the USA and Canada.While the U-boats attacked from beneath the seas, the Germans modified a civilian airliner to create the Fw-200 Condor to attack from the skies. By the summer of 1941, the Condor attacks had succeeded to the extent that Winston Churchill called them 'the scourge of the Atlantic'.This book discusses the development of the Condor, and analyzes the various Allied responses, including the development of the Hurricat, a modified hurricane that could be launched via catapult from modified merchant ships.

In the early hours of December 7, 1941, the Japanese First Air Fleet launched a massive air-strike against the American Pacific Fleet based at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii.Supported by a group of midget submarines, the attack gutted the American battleship fleet but, owing to a lack of intelligence, the American aircraft carriers they hoped to destroy were not present. In this new study of the raid, Mark Stille reexamines the political context of the attack and the intelligence operations of both sides, and gives a detailed analysis of all the major events during the battle.Backed with numerous photographs, diagrams, maps, and artwork, this book is a complete study of the Japanese attack that awoke 'the sleeping giant'.

Har du någonsin undrat hur tankeprocesser fungerar? Kan ärvda gener avgöra vilka personlighetsdrag en människa har? Hur lär sig barn språk? Psykologi är läran om allt från hur vi interagerar med varandra till de sätt på vilka vi uppfattar och tolkar vår omvärld. Psykologi i kvadrat lyfter på locket till studier om den mänskliga naturen alltifrån de mest fundamentala frågorna som till exempel hur vi lär oss språk, till de komplexa debatterna om miljö och arv. Med 100 ämnen indelade i 10 kapitel, vart och ett med tydliga illustrationer, ger boken en perfekt introduktion till allt som väcker vår nyfikenhet. Psykologi ger oss grunden till att förstå oss själva och andra. Dess teorier och begrepp definierar hur vi interagerar med vår omvärld. Psykologi i kvadrat vägleder genom 100 av de viktigaste, mest spännande och uppdaterade ämnena inom psykologin, och belyser allt från barndomens utveckling till sportpsykologi. 10 x 10 ämnen presenterar 100 grundläggande begrepp rakt på sak. Tydliga illustrationer gör även de mest komplexa förklaringarna lätta att ta till sig. I samma serie på Lind & Co finns även Fysik i kvadrat och Matematik i kvadrat. CHRISTOPHER STERLING har undervisat i psykologi på London South Bank University. Han har publicerat artiklar och böcker om dyslexi hos vuxna och har även skrivit om grundläggande psykologi och kognitiv psykologi. DANIEL FRINGS är lärare i psykologi på London South Bank University. Utöver undervisningen har han också forskat och publicerat artiklar i tidskrifter och böcker. "Författarna, bägge erfarna forskare och lärare i psykologi, är britter och vid behov har texten därför försetts med relevant information angående svenska förhållanden. Översikten inbegriper exempelvis arv och miljö, neuropsykologi, inlärning, motivation, terapi och annan praktisk tillämpning. Informationsmängden är såväl omfattande och tät som synnerligen komprimerad." Margareta Wiman,BTJ
