Alice Gunness writes of farm life, growing up in Minnesota and raising a family in North Dakota. Readers meet her Swedish immigrant parents and Donald Gunness, her husband, in a family of fourth-generation Norwegian immigrants. Alice's stories show us a farm family and a business family working for the betterment of coming generations. Humor, faith, love, and hard work sparkle in Alice's stories. In Nurtured by Nature Book II, readers meet Alice and Donald as children, learn of their married lives, and follow Alice into the present. As a little girl, Alice and her father scramble under a train car, coming home from a movie. Teenaged Alice sits on her skis down a snowy slope. As a mother, she carries bread bowls with her in the car, to let the dough rise and be punched down, while traveling to bring her daughter home from college. Now widowed, Alice Gunness reflects on faith during a pandemic. Alice writes in her own voice, with sensory detail and dialogue. Her writing moves the heart.

Civil-military Relations in Today's China: Swimming in a New Sea

Routledge

sidottu
This work provides an in-depth and up-to-date examination of civil-military relations in China. It reflects the significant changes taking place in Chinese society and their impact on the civil-military dynamic, with particular attention to how the military will fit in with the new class of entrepreneurs. Rather than focusing exclusively on elite Party-Army relations, the book examines civil-military relations from various vantage points: at "the center" and in the provinces; between civilian leaders and military leaders; from a strictly military perspective and from a civilian perspective; and from the angle of specific issue areas. Chapters explore issues, such as the impact of AIDS, the defense budget, the emerging dynamic between the military and China's new leadership, resettling demobilized troops back into civilian life, and the role of the militia, reserve units, and other civilian groups. The contributors are highly respected specialists in China studies, including political scientists, historians, PLA specialists, and sociologists. They present a vibrant portrait of the new civil-military dynamic in the PRC within the complex social changes that China is exploring today.
