Mark Webber Knihy

Kniha Rivali približuje najikonickejšie súboje v histórii F1, dramatické kolízie, konflikty medzi jazdcami i kontroverzné rozhodnutia, ktoré ich súperenie sprevádzali. Ayrton Senna verzus Alain Prost, Niki Lauda verzus James Hunt, Michael Schumacher verzus Mika Häkkinen či Lewis Hamilton verzus Max Verstappen. Kniha opisuje celkovo 16 takýchto rivalských dvojíc. Paradoxne, viaceré z nich sedeli v rovnakom aute a jazdili za ten istý tím. "Je pravda, čo sa hovorí - pojem tímový kolega nie je správny. Viac by sa hodilo označenie najväčší nepriateľ na svete,“ hovorí v predslove Mark Webber, bývalý jazdec a víťaz deviatich veľkých cien. Roztržky, nenávisť, hádky, ostré súboje na trati i mimo nej, ale aj férové súperenie a veľkorysé gestá. Rivalita vo všetkých podobách.

NATO, the most successful alliance in history, is beset by unresolved tensions and divergent interests that are undermining its cohesion, credibility and capability. In this new book, Martin Smith, James Sperling and Mark Webber explore four key post-Cold War developments that threaten NATO's survival: an overextended geostrategic reach and an unwieldly security policy portfolio; a failure to address capability short-falls and meet defense spending benchmarks; US weariness and European wariness that call NATO into question; and intra-alliance discord over Russia's place in the European security order and how to deal with Moscow’s destabilisation of Georgia and Ukraine. The authors propose in response a range of policy options that could reinvigorate NATO, but conclude with a note of caution. Alliances come and go and most are cast into the dustbin of history. If NATO is to avoid this fate it must not only address the major problems that trouble it, but also get to grips with future challenges to alliance cohesion and credibility, from Brexit to the emerging contest with China.
