Abstract:
The Ottoman Empire was largely self-sufficient in the materials of gunpowder warfare, apart from tin. In the Danube and Mediterranean basins it had access to a culture of technological transfer not least from French and Walloon deserters whom the Habsburgs did not always pay regularly. Ottoman architects such as the great Sinan Aga were mathematically informed and expected to cover secular, religious and military tasks. A centralised regime sustained a small imperial engineering corps. Its modernisation after 1720 was impeded not by prejudice but by fiscal, political and military over-extensio

Abstract:
This book examines the battles over race and gender discrimination and social justice by linking the civil rights story of the Army Nurse Corps (ANC) to critical events in the United States between World War II and the Vietnam War. Using the microcosm of military nursing, it considers how agents of change became defenders of exclusionary practices when some of the same women who challenged their exclusion from the military or civilian nursing profession, or those who had gained considerable status within the profession, were unwilling to extend the opportunities to men who sought out military

This conclusion reflects on how the integration campaigns and the history of the Army Nurse Corps (ANC) over a thirty-year period help scholars understand a more inclusive civil rights story and the evolution of nursing into a modern profession in the latter part of the twentieth century. It shows how the U.S. Army, and by extension the ANC, often found themselves at the forefront of the social upheavals and social justice activities taking place in civil society. It also considers how gender and racial tensions persisted as the Vietnam War reached its peak in the late 1960s, noting that the 1
