The Evil Imagination : Understanding and Resisting Destructive Forces
Roger Kennedy has written a masterful investigation into the concept of evil.He begins with a general view of the subject before moving into more detailed analysis.First is a review of the science of evil, including evidence from neuroscience and social psychology.This is followed by psychoanalytical studies of the individual and groups before presenting an overview of the philosophy of evil.Also included are historical and social studies which inform an understanding of evil in action.Kennedy goes on to examine the nature of genocide using a main focus on the Holocaust and of slavery.Both of these "journeys to evil" remain relevant for understanding contemporary society and issues.The Nazi past continues to disturb and resonate decades on.The politics and social fabric of Western society was reliant on slavery as a foundation of economic wealth and is haunted by its inability to process the harsh reality of slavery and its continuing after-effects.Kennedy moves from there to a discussion on the genius of Shakespeare and his encapsulation of the essential features of how evil can develop and take over a person's inner world.The book concludes with a summary of the main themes and a look at those who have resisted evil and what we can learn from them if we are to build a society that can resist the forces of evil. The book is informed by a psychoanalytic approach, with its emphasis on the power and influence of unconscious processes underlying human actions, and on the role of inner conflicting and elemental fears and anxieties often driving individual and group behaviours.It brings fresh insight to an eternal discourse.

Destructive and Formidable : British Infantry Firepower, 1642 1765
In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the British Armys victories over the French at battles such as Blenheim in 1704, Minden and Quebec in 1759, and over the Jacobites at Culloden in 1746, were largely credited to its infantrys particularly effective and deadly firepower.For the first time, David Blackmore has gone back to original drill manuals and other contemporary sources to discover the reasons behind this. This book employs an approach that starts by considering the procedures and practices of soldiers in a given period and analyses those in order understand how things were done and, in turn, why events unfolded as they did.In doing so, he has discovered a specifically British set of tactics, which created this effectiveness and allowed it to be maintained over such a long period, correcting many of the misconceptions about British infantry firepower in the age of the musket and linear warfare in a major new contribution to our understanding of an important period of British military history.

Which formula describes destructive interference?
Destructive interference is described by the formula: Δ = (m + 1/2)λ, where Δ represents the path length difference, m is an integer representing the order of the interference, and λ is the wavelength of the interfering waves. When the path length difference is equal to an odd multiple of half the wavelength, destructive interference occurs, resulting in a reduction or cancellation of the amplitude of the waves. This formula helps to predict the conditions under which destructive interference will occur in wave systems.
