В книгу вошли материалы европейских и американских авторов: журналистов, политологов, социологов, аналитиков и профессоров университетов, посвященных кризису на Украине и роли США в нем. Авторы проводят параллели между украинскими событиями и войнами и революциями в Ливии, Ираке, Сирии и других местах, куда Америка несет демократию в течение последних 15 лет, делая вывод о том, что кризис в Киеве вполне укладывается в общую канву деятельности и методов Пентагона.

In an emergency situation, that lack of knowledge could easily prove fatal. In Guide to Making Fire without Matches, survival expert Christopher Nyerges provides readers with all the skills that they may need to start a fire without modern tools. The book begins by covering the history and lore surrounding fire, and then moves on to describe, in detail, the four main methods through which fire is made: friction, the sun, electricity, and chemistry.
