In The War for Korea, 1945–1950: A House Burning, one of our most distinguished military historians argued that the conflict on the Korean peninsula in the middle of the twentieth century was first and foremost a war between Koreans that began in 1948.

Our closest living relatives are the chimpanzee and bonobo. We share many characteristics with them, but our lineages diverged millions of years ago. Who in fact was our last common ancestor? Bringing together ecology, evolution, genetics, anatomy and geology, this book provides a new perspective on human evolution. What can fossil apes tell us about the origins of human evolution? Did the last common ancestor of apes and humans live in trees or on the ground? What did it eat, and how did it survive in a world full of large predators? Did it look anything like living apes? Andrews addresses these questions and more to reconstruct the common ancestor and its habitat. Synthesising thirty-five years of work on both ancient environments and fossil and modern ape anatomy, this book provides unique new insights into the evolutionary processes that led to the origins of the human lineage.

Some governments pursue this policy resolutely with a view to terrorize the inhabitants of the earth. It can be seen that in a few countries the political leaders are following the present independent administrative policy of each co...
Non-profit organisations play a significant role in helping to build a more caring and inclusive Singapore. Organisations in the non-profit sector span over diverse mission and purpose from advancing education, community development, environmental protection, arts and culture, promotion of health and well-being, relief of poverty, and more. For these organisations, navigating the landscape of funders and grantmakers across the public and private sectors is complex and competitive. Against a backdrop of sociodemographic shifts and technological advancement, there is the ongoing quest to stay relevant.This book aims to address the distinctive management challenges of non-profits in Singapore. It draws on the context of this island city-state to discuss strategies and management frameworks that will enable leaders and managers in non-profit organisations to more effectively achieve social impact amidst internal organisational issues and an evolving external landscape.
