Quotes about warWar is an organized and often prolonged conflict that is carried out by states and/or non-state actors. It is characterised by extreme violence, social disruption, human suffering, and economic destruction.In 2003, Nobel Laureate Richard E. Smalley identified war as the sixth (of ten) biggest problem facing the society of mankind for the next fifty years.In the 1832 treatise On War, Prussian military general and theoretician Carl von Clausewitz defined war as follows: "War is thus an act of force to compel our enemy to do our will."Nations customarily measure the 'costs of war' in dollars, lost production, or the number of soldiers killed or wounded. Rarely do military establishments attempt to measure the costs of war in terms of individual human suffering. Psychiatric breakdown remains one of the most costly items of war when expressed in human terms.This book contains thoughts of many remarkable personalities, and will give you a closer view of what war means.

"The students in Miss Seabrooke's Kindergarten class are surprised when they welcome a new student and she doesn't respond, even when they talk LOUDER. They are even more surprised when Tayra doesn't answer the teacher. And they are outraged when she accidentally knocks over one of the students and doesn't apologize. Except for Kitty, who puts herself in Tayra's shoes, offers a welcoming hand, and shows Tayra around. When the other students see them having fun, they join in, too. And as they all learn to communicate without talking, smiles abound, and they are soon fast friends."--

This book is intended as counter-evidence to the perception of Linguistics as the domain of dusty schoolroom grammar, where proponents of one theoretical orientation or the other spend their brief breaks in the playground bashing the others over the head with their favorite abstractions. The discipline may appear to outsiders as fragmented and, worse still, lacking in relevance to the real world outside its gates. The purpose is to show that Linguistics, in all its varied branches, can be entertaining as well as thought-provoking, and that its domain is indeed a coherent one despite all the internecine squabbling. The subject is introduced in an unconventional way as a kind of fable with an historical moral that professional linguists, as well as students, should enjoy as a commentary on the state of the discipline today.
