Conclusion -- $tAppendix: Hypotheses on Power and the Causes of War -- $tIndex 330 $aWhat causes war? How can military conflicts best be prevented? In this book, Stephen Van Evera frames five conditions that increase the risk of interstate war: false optimism about the likely outcome of a war, a first-strike advantage, fluctuation in the relative power of states, circumstances that allow nations to parlay one conquest into another, and circumstances that make conquest easy.According to Van Evera, all but one of these conditions-false optimism-rarely occur today, but policymakers often erroneously believe in their existence. He argues that these misperceptions are responsible for many modern wars, and explores both World Wars, the Korean War, and the 1967 Mideast War as test cases. Finally, he assesses the possibility of nuclear war by applying all five hypotheses to its potential onset. Van Evera's book demonstrates that ideas from the Realist paradigm can offer strong explanations for international conflict and valuable prescriptions for its control. 606 $aWar 606 $aBalance of power 606 $aInternational relations$vCase studies 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWar. 615 0$aBalance of power. 615 0$aInternational relations 676 $a355.02/7 700 $aVan Evera$b Stephen$01043554 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453142103321 996 $aCauses of war$92468606 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04415nam 2200529 450 001 9910135025003321 005 20170919193335.0 010 $a1-119-07352-9 010 $a1-119-07353-7 010 $a1-119-07354-5 035 $a(CKB)4330000000008342 035 $a(EBL)4617588 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4617588 035 $a(EXLCZ)994330000000008342 100 $a20160219d2016 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aDiseases of the goat /$fJohn Matthews 205 $a4th ed. 210 1$aChichester, West Sussex, UK ;$aAmes Iowa :$cJohn Wiley & Sons Incorporated,$d2016. 215 $a1 online resource (842 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-119-07351-0 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aTitle Page; Copyright; Table of Contents; Preface to the fourth edition; Acknowledgements; Author's note; Chapter 1: Female infertility; The normal female goat; Investigation of female infertility; Initial assessment; Assessment of individual doe; Individual infertility problems; False pregnancy (hydrometra, cloudburst); Irregular oestrus cycles (see Table 1.3); Regular oestrus cycles (see Table 1.4); Pregnancy diagnosis; Use of prostaglandins; Control of the breeding season; Further reading; General; Caprine herpes virus; Control of the breeding season; Fetal age determination and sexing 327 $aHydrometraHydrops uteri; Intersexes; Laparoscopy; Ultrasonography; Chapter 2: Abortion; Initial advice to owners; Initial assessment; Clinical examination; Laboratory investigation; Infectious causes of abortion; Enzootic abortion (chlamydial abortion); Toxoplasmosis; Listeriosis; Campylobacter (vibriosis); Q-fever; Leptospirosis; Salmonellosis; Tickborne fever; Border disease (hypomyelinogenesis congenita, hairy shaker disease); Brucellosis; Neosporosis; Sarcocystosis; Other organisms; Non-infectious causes; Further reading; General; Border disease; Brucellosis; Campylobacter 327 $aCaprine herpes virusChlamydial abortion; Neosporosis; Plant poisoning; Q-fever; Tickborne fever; Toxoplasmosis; Yersinia pseudotuberculosis; Chapter 3: Male infertility; Investigation of male infertility; Initial assessment; Assessment of individual buck; Scrotum; Testes; Penis/prepuce; Paraphimosis; Examination of semen; Individual buck problems; Further reading; General; Gynaecomastia; Semen quality and examination; Ultrasonography; Chapter 4: The periparturient goat; The dry period; Management during late pregnancy; Feeding during late gestation; Feeding in early lactation 327 $aPeriparturient toxaemiaHypocalcaemia (milk fever); Abortion; Dead kids without immediate abortion; Vaginal prolapse; Evisceration through a vaginal tear; Rectal prolapse; Uterine torsion; Rupture of the prepubic tendon; Normal parturition; Prolonged gestation; Dystocia; Hypocalcaemia (milk fever); Hypomagnesaemia; Transit tetany; Trauma to the vulva; Metritis; Endometritis; Pyometra; Retained placenta; Retained kid; Rupture of the uterus; Ruptured uterine artery; Uterine prolapse; Urine scald; Mastitis; Laminitis; Further reading; General; Caesarian section; Dystocia; Fluid therapy; Nutrition 327 $aPrenatal stressPregnancy toxaemia; Rectal prolapse; Vaginal prolapse; Chapter 5: Weak kids; Initial assessment; Clinical examination; Prematurity/low birth weight; Birth injury; Intrauterine malnutrition; Trace element deficiencies; Congenital infections; Inherited diseases; Congenital defects; Post-natal malnutrition; Post-natal infections; Exposure; Further reading; General; Colostrum; Congenital heart disease; Copper disorders; Floppy kid syndrome; Neurogenetic disorders; Portosystemic shunt; Chapter 6: Inadequate growth rate; Initial assessment; Clinical examination 327 $aLaboratory investigations 606 $aGoats$xDiseases$xDiagnosis 606 $aVeterinary clinical pathology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGoats$xDiseases$xDiagnosis. 615 0$aVeterinary clinical pathology. 676 $a636.3/90896 700 $aMatthews$b John G.$0152206 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910135025003321 996 $aDiseases of the goat$92296646 997 $aUNINA
