简介：     《创：战纪》剧情是著名的电脑游戏开发家凯文·弗林在开创自己最新的游戏过程中离奇失踪。多年之后，他的儿子——27岁的科技天才萨姆·弗林为了寻找父亲失踪的真相，在一条神秘信息的牵引下，来到了父亲封闭多年的游乐场，并由此神奇地进入了父亲创造的电子网络游戏世界。在这里，凯文重遇了被困在电子网络里20年的父亲，还认识了一位名叫“葵拉”的女战士。原来这一切都是父亲在电子网络世界创造的一个“替身”——克鲁所设计的陷阱。为了阻止“克鲁”将要带给人类的灾难，他们3人在电子网络世界里展开了一段生死大冒险。 精彩据照： 演员简介：     加内特·赫德兰：成长在一个小镇的农场，高中开始上表演课，毕业便来到了洛杉矶。仅仅用了一个月，二十岁的他便得到了在史诗大片《木马屠城》中扮演Achilles（布拉德·皮特）的堂弟、勇敢而年轻的Patroclus的机会。之后赫德兰又同比利·鲍伯·松顿合作了《周末午夜光明》，并同泰瑞斯·吉布森、安德烈·本杰明以及马克·沃尔伯格一起主演《四兄弟》，后者给予他的演技很好的磨练机会。2006年他在《龙骑士》中扮演剑术高超的Murtagh一角，07年同简·方达、菲丽西提·霍夫曼合作《乔治亚法则》，并在凯文·贝肯主演的《死刑》中有亮眼表现。      奥利维亚·王尔德：出生在纽约市，她的祖父是生在中国北京的著名爱尔兰左翼记者克劳德·柯克本（Claud Cockburn），祖母曾是三十年代的著名模特，这个家族还有着英国贵族血统，1947年搬到爱尔兰。目前奥利维亚的父母和几位叔叔都是记者，还有一位姑姑是著名的英国推理小说家莎拉·寇威尔（Sarah Caudwell）。     奥利维亚·王尔德曾就读于爱尔兰都柏林和美国马萨诸赛州安多弗的表演学院，03年开始出演电视剧，参与拍摄的首部电影是《邻家女优》，后又担任Abercrombie & Fitch代言模特，并通过风靡一时的青春剧《橘子郡男孩》成功上位。2006年影片《妙想天书》让她在HBO喜剧艺术电影节上获得最佳女演员奖，后在《领头狗》中奉献火爆的裸露戏引人关注。奥利维亚也曾是第22部邦德影片《皇家赌场》的“邦女郎”有力竞争人选，《纽约观察家》曾称赞她迷人的低沉嗓音和往昔岁月女星那般的蓝绿色眼眸。近年奥利维亚加入了美剧《唐纳利兄弟》和《豪斯医生》剧组，并带着主演的独立片《浪子难回头》参加08年1月的圣丹斯电影节，影片导演是她的丈夫陶·卢斯柏利。2009年，奥利维亚主演了贾德·阿帕图监制的影片《元年》，接下来她还将在《电子世界争霸战2》中亮相。     杰夫·布里吉斯：出生于美国洛杉矶的一个演艺之家，父母及哥哥均为职业演员。在仅有4个月大小的时候，他便躺在妈妈的怀抱里演出了他的电影处女作《危险关系》。服完兵役之后，布里奇斯又进赫伯特·伯格霍夫学院（Herbert Berghof School）专门学习了一段时间的表演，自此，新一代电影明星便做好了正式登台亮相前的准备。为他赢取第一个奥斯卡提名的《最后一场电影》对一个年仅22岁的年轻演员而言无异于是一个碰头彩，这使得他深受鼓舞，在相当长的一段时间里频出佳作，如1975年的《西部之心》、1976年的《渴望》（Stay Hungry）。1984年连续出品发行的《不惜一切》（Against All Odds）与《星空访客》又为布里吉斯带来了如潮好评，且后者还为他赢得了第三次奥斯卡提名——最佳男主角。     1986年布里吉斯与简·方达（Jane Fonda）一起主演了《自此以后》（The Morning After），88年主演了著名导演弗朗西斯·科波拉（Francis Coppola）的名作《塔克：其人其梦》（Tucker：The Man and His Dream），1889年与米歇尔·菲弗（Michelle Pfeiffer）共同主演《贝克兄弟》（The Fabulous Baker Boys），1993年主演《美国精神》《American Heart》并首度担任了制片人的角色，1996年与芭芭拉·史翠珊共同主演《镜子的两面》（The Mirror Has Two Faces），1998年与科恩兄弟合作的《谋杀绿脚趾》已是黑色经典，他在片中扮演的无业游民“爵爷”也成为他的代表角色。1999年出演由莎朗·斯通主演的《缪斯女神》（The Muse）。并因在2000年的电影《暗潮汹涌》中的角色赢得73届奥斯卡最佳男配角提名——这次同样是与奖项擦肩而过。     近年来，布里吉斯出演了《罪案现场》、《K星异客》、《奔腾年代》等片。2008年他在商业大片《钢铁侠》中出演反派，与小罗伯特·唐尼饰演的钢铁侠分庭抗礼。同年他还与英国实力演员西蒙·佩吉合作了喜剧《如何众叛亲离》，扮演知名杂志主编。2009年他与乔治·克鲁尼、凯文·史派西等人合作了战争喜剧《以眼杀人》，而他在《疯狂的心》中扮演的乡村歌手充分展现了自己的扎实演技。接下来他还将在《电子世界争霸战2》中重拾“老本行”，在这部1982年迪士尼Cult经典电影《电子世界争霸战》续集电影中重新扮演当年自己的角色。     《纽约时报》曾经认为，杰夫·布里吉斯是他那一代演员里最具天分但却最少获得犒赏的人物之一，是最没有实现其应有的价值的演员之一。不过这个“纪录”在2010年年初的金球奖上被打破，布里吉斯因《疯狂的心》拿下金球奖最佳剧情片男主角，之后又毫无悬念地成为第82届奥斯卡影帝，可谓众望所归。

福尔摩斯探案集fu er mo si tan an ji

作者：  (英)亚瑟·柯南·道尔著;王知一译

出版社：百家出版社,2007

简介：　　《福尔摩斯探案全集》共八册：分别为：1、A暗红色研究，B四个人的签名；2、福尔摩斯办案记；3、福尔摩斯回忆录；4、巴斯克维尔的猎犬；5、福尔摩斯归来记；6、恐惧之谷；7、福尔摩斯档案簿；8、福尔摩斯退场记。《福尔摩斯探案全集》是一套精装典藏版，插图版，全译本。《福尔摩斯探案全集》附赠大力水手烟斗一个。 　　[分册介绍] 　　《暗红色研究、四个人的签名》： 　　《暗红色研究》是柯南·道尔的第一部长篇侦探小说，也是名侦探夏洛克·福尔摩斯初登场之作。福尔摩斯在这个案件中遇到了两件连续杀人案，指引他的线索，则是一个出现在谋杀现场墙上用血写成的字 RACHE 。这个字是什么意思，福尔摩斯与华生医生能顺利将凶手擒拿归案吗？ 　　《四个人的签名》写的是一个年轻的女孩带着密信来探访福尔摩斯，请福尔摩斯陪同她一起赴一场神秘的约会。自从十年前她的父亲离奇失踪后，每到生日，她总会收到贵重但不知送礼者是何人的礼物，她保存着一张印度纸，上头绘有地图及一个诡异的怪字，旁边还有四个人的签名。神秘的约会、不知送礼者的礼物、异国的纸张、四个人的签名，福尔摩斯该如何寻出真相？ 　　《福尔摩斯办案记》 　　本书是福尔摩斯系列故事中短篇小说的第一部，依出版顺序而言是福尔摩斯全集中的第三本。福尔摩斯最著名的探案如《波宫秘闻》、《红发俱乐部》，都包含在这个集子里，《波宫秘闻》纪录的故事则透露了福尔摩斯一生中唯一爱恋过的女人的故事。 　　《福尔摩斯回忆录》 　　本共收录了十一篇短篇小说，分别为《银斑驹》、《黄色脸孔》、《证券交易所的职员》、《荣苏号》、《墨氏家族的成人礼》、《盖瑞特村之谜》、《驼者》、《住院病人》、《希腊语译员》、《海军协约》、《最后一案》。其中《最后一案》为柯南·道尔终结福尔摩斯之作──福尔摩斯虽广受人们的欢迎与着迷，虽然是柯南·道尔一手创造出来的英雄人物，但柯南·道尔自己却非常地痛恨他，一心想要结束有关福尔摩斯的创作，因此他在《最后一案》中安排福尔摩斯与伦敦犯罪总首领莫里亚蒂教授在雷清贝瀑布决战，结果两人双双坠落断崖。结果此作一推出，没想到却引起当代世人的疯狂愤怒与抗议！ 　　《巴斯克维尔的猎犬》 　　本书是柯南·道尔的第三部长篇小说，也是他最成功的一部。巴斯克村流传的一段古老传说——巴斯克维尔家族受到诅咒，一只黑色的巨大魔犬是这个家族的索命克星——古老传说的起因在于：巴斯克维尔家族中的休勾·巴斯克维尔，因为强抢民女，结果被黑色巨犬撕咬致死，从此之后，这个家族就笼罩在诅咒的阴影之中。一百年过去了，人们逐渐忘记此事，没想到，巴斯克维尔家族又有人因为黑色巨犬的出现而死亡，这件命案到底是诅咒还是有人利用传说来进行杀人诡计？福尔摩斯该如何解开隐藏在传说中的死亡涵义？ 　　《福尔摩斯归来记》 　　本书是福尔摩斯全集中的短篇小说集，共收录了福尔摩斯所经历的十三则探案，其中《空屋》是福尔摩斯历劫归来后的第一则案子——自从福尔摩斯与伦敦罪犯首领莫里亚蒂教授双双跌落雷清贝瀑布后，所有的人都以为福尔摩斯死在雷清贝瀑布——未料，八年之后，福尔摩斯化装成老流浪汉回来，利用他在贝格街的旧宅，一举破了三起伦敦市悬而未决的案子。在雷清贝瀑布死过一次之后，神探福尔摩斯缓缓老矣，只是，再也不曾死去。 　　《恐惧之谷》 　　一张满是密码的短签辗转送到福尔摩斯手上，原本该附有解碼的第二封神秘信函带来的却是“形迹泄漏，无法继续联络”的讯息，福尔摩斯解开了密码，却也卷入一场杀人案中——伯尔斯通村的道格拉斯先生神秘死亡，而这一场谋杀正是密码短签想要传达的消息，这到底是怎么一回事？是谁在操纵死亡，福尔摩斯能否抓到这一只隐藏在黑暗中掌握众人命运的手…… 　　《福尔摩斯退场记》 　　本书所记录的大部分福尔摩斯故事，大部分是从福尔摩斯的老搭档华生医生的笔记簿中收录而来的，这些故事发表时，福尔摩斯正隐居在英格兰的乡间，过着安闲自适的生活，并且想完完全全从侦探生涯中退休下来，但因为日耳曼战争的爆发，使得福尔摩斯重出江湖，为大英帝国贡献一己心力，这个不凡的经历，记述在《福尔摩斯退场记》中。本书共收录了八则短篇探案。 　　《福尔摩斯档案簿》 　　福尔摩斯是不是该见好就收，以免像嗓音已不如前的男高音仍频频高唱，辜负了支持者的美意与宽容在柯南·道尔的设想中，福尔摩斯办案生涯中所经历的最后一案，应该是《福尔摩斯退场》（收录在《福尔摩斯退场记》中）一案，此后，福尔摩斯便缓缓不知所终，永远活在人们的记忆里，只是众多福迷不能接受这个事，一再央求柯南·道尔继续福尔摩斯的故事，所以我们才在《福尔摩斯退场》之后，又再有了这十二篇精彩的故事。本书是短篇小说集，共收录了十二篇福尔摩斯探案。 　　 　　[福尔摩斯的关知识] 　　“You Have Been in Afghanistan，I perceive。” 　　--（“我看得出，您从阿富汗来。”）这句话对于标准的“福迷”们来说是再熟悉不过的了。在《暗红色研究》中，当福尔摩斯和华生第一次见面时，福尔摩斯那“不朽”的第一句话就是“How areyou？You have been in Afghanistan，I perceive.”（“您好。我看得出，您从阿富汗来。”）如果你注意的话，你会发现它不是以一个问句的形式说的，这说明福尔摩斯是非常确定，利用他的推理得出了华生去过阿富汗的结论。 　　Mycroft Holmes（麦克罗夫特·福尔摩斯）做为福尔摩斯的长兄，被福尔摩斯认为比他自己拥有更高程度的推理艺术，但是他缺乏在侦探事业上的愿望和精力。他在英国政府任职，也可以这么说，在某种程度上，他就是英国政府。 The Woman--（那个女人）这当然是指爱琳·爱德勒，她是《波宫秘闻》中的女主角，当然福尔摩斯这么称呼她是基于对她的赞赏。因为她才貌双全，而且以她的聪明才智打败了福尔摩斯。福尔摩斯一生中仅三次败于别人的手下，她就是其中之一，而且是唯一的女性。许多读者认为福尔摩斯对于她不仅仅是赞赏，不过华生坚持认为福尔摩斯对于爱琳并没有什么罗曼蒂克的想法。 　　Moriarty（莫里亚蒂教授）他以其可以和夏洛克·福尔摩斯匹敌的智力成为福尔摩斯的主要敌人，他策划了伦敦大部分的犯罪活动。 　　Scotland Yard（苏格兰场）即伦敦警察局，他们是经常寻求福尔摩斯帮助的官方警探，他们中主要有莱斯垂得、格雷森和霍蒲金斯。 　　Baker street Irregulars（贝克街小分队）这是指经常为福尔摩斯所雇用的一群流浪儿。他们的头儿是维金斯。

简介：The influence of Henry Stommel on the development of physical oceanography over the past four decades has been immense. Although he is best known as a major generator of modern concepts of ocean circulation, his research interests have encompassed much of physical oceanography, and the colleagues he influenced have explored every ocean, literally and figuratively. In this volume, comprehensive surveys trace the development of major oceanographic fields since Stommel began his professional life and summarize the state of these subjects now—they cover "where we are and how we arrived, what is known and seems probable, and what seem nowto be the key questions." The book opens with five brief essays offering personal reminiscences of Henry Stommel and assessments of his scientific contributions, written by Arnold B. Arons, George Veronis, Raymond B. Montgomery, G. E. R. Deacon, and F. C. Fuglister. It then presents eighteen invited survey articles, grouped into four sections: General Ocean Circulation:deep circulation of the world ocean (Bruce A. Warren), the water masses of the world ocean (L. V. Worthington), mid-depth circulation of the world ocean (Joseph L. Reid), the Gulf Stream System (N. P. Fofonoff), dynamics of large-scale circulation (George Veronis), equatorial currents (Ants Leetmaa, Julian P. McCreary, Jr., and Dennis W. Moore), and estuarine and continental-shelf circulation in the Middle Atlantic Bight (Robert C. Beardsley and William C. Boicourt). Physical Processes in Oceanography:small-scale mixing processes (J. S. Turner), internal waves and small-scale processes (Walter Munk), long waves and ocean tides (Myrl C. Hendershott), low-frequency variability of the sea (Carl Wunsch), the amplitude of convection (William V. R. Malkus), and varieties of biological oceanography (J. H. Steele). Techniques of Investigation:ocean instruments and experimental design (D. James Baker, Jr.), geochemical tracers and ocean circulation (W. S. Broecker), and laboratory models and analogues of ocean circulation (Alan J. Faller). Ocean and Atmosphere:air-sea interaction (H. Charnock) and oceanic analogues of large-scale atmospheric motions (Jule G. Charney and Glenn R. Flierl).

简介：     "The Complete Sherlock Holmes, Volume II," by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is part of the "Barnes and Noble Classics"" "series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of "Barnes and Noble Classics": New introductions commissioned from today's top writers and scholars Biographies of the authors Chronologies of contemporary historical, biographical, and cultural events Footnotes and endnotes Selective discussions of imitations, parodies, poems, books, plays, paintings, operas, statuary, and films inspired by the work Comments by other famous authors Study questions to challenge the reader's viewpoints and expectations Bibliographies for further reading Indices and Glossaries, when appropriateAll editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. "Barnes and Noble Classics "pulls together a constellation of influences-biographical, historical, and literary-to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works."" "The Complete Sherlock Holmes" comprises four novels and fifty-six short stories revolving around the world's most popular and influential fictional detective-the eccentric, arrogant, and ingenious Sherlock Holmes. He and his trusted friend, Dr. Watson, step from Holmes's comfortable quarters at 221b Baker Street into the swirling fog of Victorian London to combine detailed observation and vast knowledge with brilliant deduction. Inevitably, Holmes rescues the innocent, confounds the guilty, and solves the most perplexing puzzlesknown to literature. "Volume II" of "The Complete Sherlock Holmes" begins with "The Return of Sherlock Holmes," Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, tired of writing about Holmes, had killed him off at the end of "The Final Problem," the last tale in "The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes" (found in "Volume I" of "The Complete Sherlock Holmes"). Public demand for new Holmes stories was so great, however, that Conan Doyle eventually resurrected him. The first story in "The Return," "The Adventure of the Empty House," features Conan Doyle's infamously inventive explanation of how Holmes escaped what seemed like certain death. This volume also includes two other collections of Holmes stories, "His Last Bow" and "The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes"; Conan Doyle's final full-length Holmes novel, "The Valley of Fear"; a pair of parodies, "The Field Bazaar" and "How Watson Learned the Trick"; and two essays about the "private life" of the beloved sleuth. Kyle Freeman, a Sherlock Holmes enthusiast for many years, earned two graduate degrees in English literature from Columbia University, where his major was twentieth-century British literature.

简介：Sherlock Holmes is the greatest detective of them all. He sits in his room, and smokes his pipe. He listens, and watches, and thinks. He listens to the steps coming up the stairs; he watches the door opening - and he knows what question the stranger will ask. In these three of his best stories, Holmes has three visitors to the famous flat in Baker Street - visitors who bring their troubles to the only man in the world who can help them.

简介：Businessese, academese, legalese - these painful eses appear all too often in memos, letters, reports, and papers. You have probably fallen victim to them yourself, writing "commence" and "prior to" instead of "begin" and "before," burying your main point somewhere in the last paragraph. Now Edward Bailey offers help in The Plain English Approach to Business Writing. Bailey has spent twenty years working in bastions of bureaucratese, helping businessmen and government workers write in direct, effective plain English. This no-nonsense guide is an indispensable office companion. Bailey's approach is suprisingly straightforward: just write as you would talk. Plain English is not only easier to read, it's also easier to write. And it's so effective that many large organizations are endorsing, if not demanding its use in the workplace. Pithy and entertaining, Bailey clearly lays out the dos and don'ts of plain English, illustrating them with examples drawn from such sources as business documents, technical manuals, trade publications, and the works of such writers as Russell Baker and John D. MacDonald. From the basics to the fine tuning, he offers practical advice on clarity, precision, organization, layout, and a host of other topics. This is a book that can be read in an hour - and used for the rest of your life. - Back cover.

简介：　　★“侦探小说之父”福尔摩斯探案全集再度亮相 　　★最新全译本，台湾著名翻译家王知一先生操刀翻译！ 　　★全新单册包装，阅读更舒适，价位更合理 　 　　 　　《福尔摩斯探案全集》可谓是开辟了侦探小说历史“黄金时代”的不朽经典，一百多年来被译成57种文字，风靡全世界，是历史上最受读者推崇，绝对不能错过的侦探小说。 　　《福尔摩斯探案全集》更是被推理迷们称为推理小说中的《圣经》，是每一个推理迷必备的案头书籍。从《暗红色研究》诞生到现在的一百多年间，福尔摩斯打遍天下无敌手，影响力早已越过推理一隅，成为人们心中神探的代名词。因而《福尔摩斯探案全集》是一本老少咸宜的奇妙书籍。 　　《福尔摩斯探案全集》的出版使福尔摩斯在英国读者中成为妇孺皆知的英雄，也使其作者柯南·道尔一举成名，后人更是称其为“侦探小说之父”。 [本套特点] 　　插图本，所选插图均出自英国著名的插图画家西德尼?佩吉特之手。福尔摩斯最初之形象——身高瘦削、鹰鼻薄唇、经常拿着烟斗与手杖，就是由佩吉特塑造的，此后所有关于福尔摩斯的插图都是在此基础上加以改进的。因而可以说，佩吉特的插图是读者领略原作神韵和体验故事氛围的最重要的组成部分。 　　全译本，本书由台湾著名翻译家王知一先生翻译，译文最为忠实于原著，对于目前流行的一些译本中的错误都有纠正。 　　全集与分册兼顾，本套书每册均为一个书号，在设计上既虑到了整套的效果，同时也兼顾到了单册销售的情况。每一本均可以单独销售，也可以整套收藏。 　　价格低，最便宜的一本定价仅为12元。 [内容简介] 　　《恐惧之谷》 　　一张满是密码的短签辗转送到福尔摩斯手上，原本该附有解碼的第二封神秘信函带来的却是“形迹泄漏，无法继续联络”的讯息，福尔摩斯解开了密码，却也卷入一场杀人案中——伯尔斯通村的道格拉斯先生神秘死亡，而这一场谋杀正是密码短签想要传达的消息，这到底是怎么一回事？是谁在操纵死亡，福尔摩斯能否抓到这一只隐藏在黑暗中掌握众人命运的手…… 　　警方的审讯过去了，约翰·道格拉斯的案子被移送更高的法院。最后四分法院（注：英国一年开庭四次的法院）判他自卫杀人。 　　“尽一切可能把他送出英国，”福尔摩斯写信给道格拉斯的妻子，“这里有一些恶势力比他成功逃脱的那几次更危险。你丈夫在英国没有安全的地方。” 　　两个月过去了，这案子已渐渐由我们的心中淡去。然而，一天早晨，一封谜样的短笺丢进了我们的信箱。“上帝！福尔摩斯先生，上帝！”怪信上这样写道，既无签名也无印徽。我对着这怪信大笑，但福尔摩斯却显出不寻常的凝重。…… 　　本书共分两部：伯尔斯通的悲剧、史高帮。 [福尔摩斯的关知识] 　　“You Have Been in Afghanistan，I perceive。” 　　--（“我看得出，您从阿富汗来。”）这句话对于标准的“福迷”们来说是再熟悉不过的了。在《暗红色研究》中，当福尔摩斯和华生第一次见面时，福尔摩斯那“不朽”的第一句话就是“How areyou？You have been in Afghanistan，I perceive.”（“您好。我看得出，您从阿富汗来。”）如果你注意的话，你会发现它不是以一个问句的形式说的，这说明福尔摩斯是非常确定，利用他的推理得出了华生去过阿富汗的结论。 　　Mycroft Holmes（麦克罗夫特?福尔摩斯）做为福尔摩斯的长兄，被福尔摩斯认为比他自己拥有更高程度的推理艺术，但是他缺乏在侦探事业上的愿望和精力。他在英国政府任职，也可以这么说，在某种程度上，他就是英国政府。 The Woman--（那个女人）这当然是指爱琳?爱德勒，她是《波宫秘闻》中的女主角，当然福尔摩斯这么称呼她是基于对她的赞赏。因为她才貌双全，而且以她的聪明才智打败了福尔摩斯。福尔摩斯一生中仅三次败于别人的手下，她就是其中之一，而且是唯一的女性。许多读者认为福尔摩斯对于她不仅仅是赞赏，不过华生坚持认为福尔摩斯对于爱琳并没有什么罗曼蒂克的想法。 　　Moriarty（莫里亚蒂教授）他以其可以和夏洛克?福尔摩斯匹敌的智力成为福尔摩斯的主要敌人，他策划了伦敦大部分的犯罪活动。 　　Scotland Yard（苏格兰场）即伦敦警察局，他们是经常寻求福尔摩斯帮助的官方警探，他们中主要有莱斯垂得、格雷森和霍蒲金斯。 　　Baker street Irregulars（贝克街小分队）这是指经常为福尔摩斯所雇用的一群流浪儿。他们的头儿是维金斯。

简介："In this book, William W. Newmann examines the way presidents manage their advisory process for national security decision making and the way that process evolves over the course of an administration's term. Three detailed case studies show how the president and his senior advisors managed arms control and nuclear strategy during the first terms of the Carter, Reagan, and G. H. W. Bush presidencies. These studies, enhanced by interviews with key members of the national security teams, including James Baker, Brent Scowcroft, and Zbigniew Brzezinski, reveal significant patterns of structure and adaptation. They provide a window to how decision making in the modern White House really works, at a moment when national security decisions are again at the top of the agenda."--BOOK JACKET.
