Armageddon in Retrospect
First published on the anniversary of Kurt Vonnegut's death, Armageddon in Retrospect is a collection of twelve new writings - a fitting tribute to the author, and an essential contribution to the discussion of war, peace and humanity's tendency towards violence.Imbued with Vonnegut's trademark rueful humour, the pieces range from a visceral non-fiction recollection of the destruction of Dresden - to a painfully funny short story about three soldiers and their fantasies of the perfect meal.

Midland Red in Retrospect: A Journey Through Time
Midland Red in Retrospect covers the period during the 1960s when the Midland Red bus company dominated the Midlands, operating the lion's share of the bus services and also the express coach services from the Midlands to London and other locations.Like London Transport, Midland Red had a very distinctive image and its own fleet of vehicles designed exclusively for its operations.This volume is written by someone who worked for the company during this period and reflects the colour and atmosphere of this much-loved and well-remembered bus operator.Sadly the author passed away in September 2020, before the book was published and this volume of Midland Red bus pictures is a tribute to him.

Would you join this sect again in retrospect?

Can you say in retrospect that you didn't like children as a child?
As a child, I didn't have a strong dislike for other children, but I did have moments where I found them annoying or frustrating. However, as I grew older, I developed a greater appreciation for children and enjoyed spending time with them. Looking back, I can say that I didn't dislike children as a child, but rather I had moments of impatience and frustration that are common for many kids.

On the Eighteenth Century as a Category of Asian History : Van Leur in Retrospect
The starting point of this volume is the scathing attack, far-reaching in its consequences, launched in 1942 by J.C. van Leur on the views then current on the character and significance of the 18th century as a category in Asian history.His denial of European pre-eminence in Asian waters represented a direct attack on colonial historiography.The essays here derive from an international conference held 50 years later, to assess the impact of van Leur’s work.In part historiographic, in part drawing on new research, they aim to delimit the boundaries of European-Asian interaction, and to provide case studies of what this period actually meant for the history of South and East Aia.

Britain's Moment in Palestine : Retrospect and Perspectives, 1917-1948
In 1917, the British issued the Balfour Declaration for military and strategic reasons.This book analyses why and how the British took on the Palestine Mandate.It explores how their interests and policies changed during its course and why they evacuated the country in 1948. During the first decade of the Mandate the British enjoyed an influx of Jewish capital mobilized by the Zionists which enabled them not only to fund the administration of Palestine, but also her own regional imperial projects.But in the mid-1930s, as the clouds of World War Two gathered, Britain’s commitment to Zionism was superseded by the need to secure her strategic assets in the Middle East.In consequence she switched to a policy of appeasing the Arabs.In 1947, Britain abandoned her attempts to impose a settlement in Palestine that would be acceptable to the Arab States and referred Palestine to the United Nations, without recommendations, leaving the antagonists to settle their conflict on the battlefield. Based on archival sources, and the most up-to-date scholarly research, this comprehensive history offers new insights into Arab, British and Zionist policies.It is a must-read for anyone with an interest in Palestine, Israel, British Colonialism and the Middle East in general.

Were there any family traditions in your childhood that, in retrospect, were really strange?
One family tradition that stands out as strange in retrospect is our annual "weird food night." On this night, my family would gather and each person would bring a dish made with an unusual or unexpected ingredient. We would then all try each other's dishes and vote on the most creative or bizarre creation. Looking back, it's definitely an odd tradition, but it was always a fun and memorable experience.
