Kelly

    Kelly Kennedyová je oceňovaná novinářka, která se stala průkopnicí v oblasti válečného zpravodajství a veteránských témat. Jako jediná americká žena, která sloužila v americké armádě a zároveň pokrývala americké bojové operace jako civilistka, přináší jedinečný vhled do života vojáků a jejich bojů. Její psaní se zaměřuje na hluboké ponory do vojenských témat, analýzu vojenské politiky a historie a odhalování pravdy za válečnými zážitky. Kennedyová se nebojí zkoumat složité a často bolestivé aspekty války a jejích dopadů na jednotlivce i společnost.

      The book focuses on the interdisciplinary nature of engineering, emphasizing the importance of understanding both mechanical and electrical systems. It is structured into four parts: mathematical modeling of dynamic systems, solving differential equations, analyzing system responses, and an introduction to feedback control systems. Additionally, it includes an appendix on MATLAB, which serves as a computational, programming, and graphical tool throughout the text. SIMULINK is also covered, highlighting its use in developing models through transfer functions and state-space methods.

      The Marine Corps continues to be the only service where men and women train separately in boot camp or basic training. This segregation negatively affects interaction with male marines later on, and, lower expectations of female recruits are actively maintained and encouraged. But Lieutenant Colonel Kate Germano arrived at the Fourth Recruit Training Battalion at Parris Island--which exclusively trains female recruits--convinced that if she expected more of the women just coming into Corps, she could raise historically low standards for female performance and make women better Marines. And, after one year, shooting qualifications of the women under her command equaled those of men, injuries had decreased, and unit morale had noticeably improved. Then the Marines fired her. This is the story of Germano's struggle to achieve equality of performance and opportunity for female Marines against an entrenched male-dominated status quo. It is also a universal tale of the effects of systemic gender bias. Germano charges that the men above her in the chain of command were too invested in perpetuating the subordinate role of women in the Corps to allow her to prove that the female Marine can be equal to her male counterpart. She notes that the Marine Corps' $35-million gender-integration study, which shows that all-male squads perform at a higher level than mixed male-female squads, flies in the face of the results she demonstrated with the all-female Fourth Battalion and raises questions about the Marine Corps' willingness to let women succeed. At a time when women are fighting sexism and systemic bias in many sectors of society, Germano's experience has wide-ranging implications and lessons--not just for the military but also for corporate America, the labor force, education, and government

      Fight Like a Girl
    • Exploring the impact of technology on societal accountability, this book examines how viral recordings of racist and misogynist behavior often lead to a superficial engagement with issues of race and gender. It argues that the obsession with scandalous footage distracts from the deeper, systemic structures of whiteness, white supremacy, and patriarchy. By critiquing the culture of spectatorship surrounding these incidents, it highlights the need for a more profound understanding of antiracism and gender justice, moving beyond mere outrage to foster genuine change.
