The Thirteen Gun Salute
Captain Jack Aubrey sets sail for the South China Sea with a new lease on life as a privateer. Now he is to shepherd Stephen Maturin?his friend, ship's surgeon, and sometimes intelligence agent?on a diplomatic mission to prevent links between Bonaparte and the Malay princes that would put English merchant shipping at risk. Along their journey, Maturin climbs the Thousand Steps of the sacred crater of the orangutans; a killer typhoon catches Aubrey and his crew trying to work the Diane off a reef; and, in the barbaric court of Pulo Prabang, a classic duel of intelligence agents unfolds: the French envoys, well entrenched in the Sultan's good graces, against the savage cunning of Stephen Maturin.- Shop: buecher

The Cold War: Bolinda Beginner Guides , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 338min
For nearly half a century the world was divided in two, wrenched apart by superpowers that perceived the nations of the world only as either capitalist or communist. The Cold War was a battle not of weapons but rather of minds, fought by intelligence agencies, propaganda and covert government envoys. Using evidence from newly opened archives, Merrilyn Thomas peels back layers of deception and intrigue to dispel the myths of the Cold War. From the power of Mao’s Little Red Book to the menace of nuclear annihilation, this compelling account brings to life one of history’s most contentious periods, the legacy of which still haunts us today. ungekürzt.

Diplomacy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 44min
Diplomacy is a peaceful art used by states to maintain official relationships with other neighboring states. The development of diplomacy is parallel to the development of international law. Diplomacy exists from the ancient era and can be dated to 1 billion BC. With the advent of the Renaissance, the concept of envoys was added, and diplomacy underwent huge changes, and with time, diplomacy became a distinct subject. The most challenging phase in the development of the subject was during the Second World War. However, diplomacy prevailed, and the growth continued. The era of globalization further entangled diplomacy, and the complex structure is rapidly developing as the countries are preparing new methods of making diplomatic relations. Presently, diplomacy exists in many forms and is one of the primary tools of negotiation between nations in the subject of international law and a barricade between peace and law. ungekürzt.
