The author raises a series of timely and acute questions about the future of postmodernism and postcommunism. The author claims that the Balkan war has de-railed the movement for unification in Europe. The Islamic world has seen that the West is quite willing to bomb Muslim targets, from Iraq to Somalia, but absolutely unwilling to wage a `just war' to save the Bosnian Muslims. He concludes that the Balkan war is a key catalyst in the unravelling of the West. 606 $aPost-communism 606 $aPostmodernism$xSocial aspects 606 $aWorld politics$y1989- 606 $aYugoslav War, 1991-1995 615 0$aPost-communism. 615 0$aPostmodernism$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aWorld politics 615 0$aYugoslav War, 1991-1995. 676 $a303.6 676 $a303.6094 676 $a940.55/9 700 $aMestrovic$b Stjepan Gabriel.$0932266 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778878903321 996 $aThe Balkanization of the West$93690193 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04301nam 2201009Ia 450 001 9910782913403321 005 20230607215026.0 010 $a9786613520395 010 $a0-520-92965-9 010 $a1-280-09439-7 010 $a1-59734-909-7 024 7 $a10.1525/9780520929654 035 $a(CKB)1000000000007464 035 $a(EBL)224633 035 $a(OCoLC)475931627 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000249209 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11923297 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000249209 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10207550 035 $a(PQKB)10643968 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC224633 035 $a(DE-B1597)518836 035 $a(OCoLC)49570329 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780520929654 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL224633 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10064740 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL352039 035 $a(OCoLC)936891304 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000007464 100 $a20041017d2002 my 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurun#---|u||u 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aSpacefaring$b[electronic resource] $ethe human dimension /$fAlbert A.

RESTORING THE DREAM --$tNOTES --$tINDEX 330 $aThe stars have always called us, but only for the past forty years or so have we been able to respond by traveling in space. This book explores the human side of spaceflight: why people are willing to brave danger and hardship to go into space; how human culture has shaped past and present missions; and the effects of space travel on health and well-being. A comprehensive and authoritative treatment of its subject, this book combines statistical studies, rich case histories, and gripping anecdotal detail as it investigates the phenomenon of humans in space-from the earliest spaceflights to the missions of tomorrow. Drawing from a strong research base in the behavioral sciences, Harrison covers such topics as habitability, crew selection and training, coping with stress, group dynamics, accidents, and more. In addition to taking a close look at spacefarers themselves, Spacefaring reviews the broad organizational and political contexts that shape human progress toward the heavens. With the ongoing construction of the International Space Station, the human journey to the stars continues, and this book will surely help guide the way. 606 $aManned space flight 606 $aAstronautics$xHuman factors 610 $aanxiety. 610 $aastronauts. 610 $abehavior. 610 $abehavioral science. 610 $acase history. 610 $acase study. 610 $acosmology. 610 $acosmos. 610 $ahabitability. 610 $ahealth and wellness. 610 $ahuman nature. 610 $ahumans in space. 610 $ainternational space station. 610 $amental health. 610 $aouter space. 610 $aplanets. 610 $apolitical. 610 $apolitics. 610 $aspace exploration. 610 $aspace missions. 610 $aspace shuttle. 610 $aspace station. 610 $aspace travel. 610 $aspacecraft. 610 $aspaceflight. 610 $astars. 610 $astatistical. 610 $astatistics. 610 $astress management. 610 $astress. 610 $atrue story. 615 0$aManned space flight. 615 0$aAstronautics$xHuman factors. 676 $a629.45 700 $aHarrison$b Albert A$01468133 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782913403321 996 $aSpacefaring$93745798 997 $aUNINA
