This is a military companion for my 1998 book, 1000 Airlines in Colour. It shows the range of military aeroplanes and the colour schemes worn. The aim is not just to look at the latest fast jets, they are in, but to show the range of aircraft types that have served in uniform over the last forty years. Military aircraft have in recent years...

LIKE a chemical compound, scientific knowledge is purified by recrystallization. When first published, each new grain of fact or theory shines from a mud of irrelevant or erroneous details. In subsequent discussion the grains are redissolved, and filtered. Finally, in books and treatises, the solution is allowed to precipitate into a single...

This book presents an in-depth study on the recent advances in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs).
