Mr. Prinns charge against the King [[electronic resource] ] : Shewing that the Kings design, purpose, and resolution, his endeavours, practice, and conversation, have alwayes been engaged, byassed, and tended to settle, establish, confirm, popery, tyranny, and slavery, in, among, over his dominions, subjects, people, and in order to that design, end, and purpose, he writ to the Pope of Rome ... engaging himself to the said Pope, to endeavour to settle the popish religion only in his dominions; and since his coming to the crown, hath extented extraordinary favonrs [sic] upon, and protecti- on [sic] of notorious papists, priests & Jesuits, against all prosecution of lawes enacted against them; notwith- standing all his protestations to the contrary, hath raised up a most horrid, unnatural, and bloudy warre, arming his Roman Catholique subjects to massacre, plunder, torture, imprison, ruine, his loyall, faithfull pious Protestant subjects to burn, sack, and spoile their cities, towns and villages, collected from the bookes written. / / By William Prinne of Lincolns Inne, Esquire. Being but a very small tast from that main ocean of that which he hath written concerning the King, .

Sommario/riassunto

In 1946, the judges at the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg declared 'crimes against peace' - the planning, initiation or waging of aggressive wars - to be 'the supreme international crime'. At the time, the prosecuting powers heralded the charge as being a legal milestone, but it later proved to be an anomaly arising from the unique circumstances of the post-war period. This study traces the idea of



criminalising aggression, from its origins after the First World War, through its high-water mark at the post-war tribunals at Nuremberg and Tokyo, to its abandonment during the Cold War. Today, a similar charge - the 'crime of aggression' - is being mooted at the International Criminal Court, so the ideas and debates that shaped the original charge of 'crimes against peace' assume new significance and offer valuable insights to lawyers, policy-makers and scholars engaged in international law and international relations.

Sommario/riassunto

Radio Propagation and Adaptive Antennas for Wireless Communication Networks, 2nd Edition, presents a comprehensive overview of wireless communication system design, including the latest updates to considerations of over-the-terrain, atmospheric, and ionospheric communication channels. New features include the latest experimentally-verified stochastic approach, based on several multi-parametric models; all-new chapters on wireless network fundamentals, advanced technologies, and current and modern multiple access networks; and helpful problem sets at the conclusion of each chapter to enhance clarity. The volume's emphasis remains on a thorough examination of the role of obstructions on the corresponding propagation phenomena that influence the transmission of radio signals through line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation conditions along the radio path between the transmitter and the receiver antennas - and how adaptive antennas, used at the link terminals, can be used to minimize the deleterious effects of such obstructions. With its focus on 3G, 4G, MIMO, and the latest wireless technologies, Radio Propagation and Adaptive Antennas for Wireless Communication Networks represents an invaluable resource to topics critical to the design of contemporary wireless communication systems.
