Adolf Hitler was an Austrian who joined the German Army in 1914, and was the product of the upheaval in German society after the 1st World War. When the German Army attacked the Allies on the 10th, May 1940 they were completely outnumbered in tanks, artillery and men. The French and the British were also far more mechanised. So it beggars the question: How could an Army that was far more modern and twice the size of its opponent get beaten so easily? The answer is really quite simple - Poor Leadership, Overconfidence, and Incompetence.

During the fateful final year of World War II, Nazi Germany suffered severe military defeats and massive bombings by the Allies on the home front—turning cities into ruins. Relations among Nazi leadership deteriorated, and rifts appeared within the inner circle of Adolf Hitler. Although the situation was catastrophic for Germany, the mass extermination of the Jews—Hitler’s "Final Solution”— never halted. In fact, it heavily accelerated, breaking into new territories. One of the people closest to Hitler—who directly influenced the events—was Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Minister of Propaganda. He preached to Germans over and over to continue fighting—in a struggle already lost.

Successfully identify, structure, and execute Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs and projects necessary for the nation to secure an advantage in a highly competitive space. Over eight chapters, this book conveys the principles and best practices needed by government and industry leaders at multiple levels. The book begins with a case for action and a differentiated way for AI leaders and their customers to think and communicate about AI. We then address the programming and budgeting elements of this challenge facing senior executives and program managers. For those engaged in actual AI work, the project and data science chapters cover the essential elements needed to guide teams and contribute effectively as a leader. Lastly the book covers critical enabling areas: leading data science practitioners and others on the AI team, and navigating technology choices through an understanding of the underlying technologies in the AI solution stack.

Название: Early medieval militarisation

The societies of ancient Europe underwent a continual process of militarisation, and this would come to be a defining characteristic of the early Middle Ages. The process was neither linear nor mono-causal, but it affected society as a whole, encompassing features like the lack of demarcation between the military and civil spheres of the population, the significance attributed to weapons beyond their military function and the wide recognition of martial values. Early medieval militarisation assembles twenty studies that use both written and archaeological evidence to explore the phenomenon of militarisation and its impact on the development of the societies of early medieval Europe. The interdisciplinary investigations break new ground and will be essential reading for scholars and students of related fields, as well as non-specialists with an interest in early medieval history.

International finance has evolved in all aspects, be it in terms of institutional framework, rules and regulations, standardized operations, innovative financial products or policy framework. International trade and business have helped economies grow and bring prosperity across nations. Hence, the interface between international trade and business and international finance is cohesive. There are various facets of international finance including globalization, foreign direct investment, foreign exchangemarkets, balance of payments, institutional framework strengthening like World Bank, BIS, IMF and many others which are covered in the book. The foreign currency exchange market is the largest financial market both by volume and turnover. Forex market isdeveloping at a better than average pace though it is also said that the foreign exchange market is still in the nascent stage in India. The issues of foreign currency regimes, exchange rate fluctuations, and the forex rate volatility dynamics and its impact on economies are interesting to understand. The book provides chapters from learned academicians in their field discussing the contemporary developments in international finance and the dynamics of evolving international financial markets.

Second harmonic generation (SHG) has a wide range of applications in today's technological era, including nonlinear optics, quantum optics, lasers, material science, medical science, biological imaging, and high-resolution optical microscopy. In the laser industry, for example, SHG is prudent to create wavelength-specific high-energy lasers. It is also used to measure ultra-short pulse width with autocorrelators. SHG is now indispensable as a spectroscopic imaging tool in applications, such as biophysical characterization of the plasma membrane, biological sensing, disease diagnostics, and investigations of biomolecular interactions at interfaces. Because of its non-destructive detection, ultrafast response, and polarization sensitivity, SHG is exploited to describe crystal structures and materials. The use of SHG to characterize two-dimensional (2D) material structures gives crucial insights into their physical properties, thereby promoting the development of the relevant basic research, leading to theinvestigation of the potential applications of those materials. Developments in SHG research hold promising potentials of a large class of materials, such as magnetic- and nonmagnetic layered materials, perovskites, antiferromagnetic oxides, II-VI and III-V semiconductors, and nanotubes, for a variety of technological applications. This book focuses on the process of modelling and simulations of the SHG phenomenon in the area of nonlinear and quantum optics.
