Sobre IBD

This book of 45 essays - ranging from purely humorous to politically and socially grave - provides samples of the lifetime's work of a trained journalist of 60 years' professional standing. Thomas was a prominent writer for The West Australian (1958-69); The Age as Economics Writer from the Canberra Press Gallery, (1971-79); and BRW Magazine from inception in 1981 to his retirement in 2001, including a decade as Associate Editor. He is currently a prolific contributor to Quadrant Monthly and Quadrant OnLine. Thomas' interests, particularly in the political, stem from his early childhood indoctrination into Communism, followed by an adult reaction towards conservatism. Suffice to say he has ink and politics in his veins.

    叶其泉
    2025年4月 以后的中国的政治形势发生了剧烈的改变。这些改变可能影响对中国的统一台湾行动的日程的判断。特作以下修正。在第一章里增加了一节，即第一章第十一节：2025年中国政治对中国统一进程的影响。另外增加了一章，即第十二章：错失2026年关口对中国的风险。 美国及联盟事实上无法阻止，延迟，或逆转中国的统一台湾的行动。在2026年启动这一行动，对中国是妥当的时机。美国联盟也不能不对中国的行动作出反应。不对此做出反应就是政治自杀。错误的应对方案同样也带来自杀结果的结果。美国的应对方案理论上有事前方案和事后方案两个组共6种工具包。包括事前和谈方案，事前阻遏方案；事后全面政治制裁；全面政治制裁加经济制裁；政治制裁加靖绥军事方案，和全面整体战争方案。总体上很难看到美国能从应对中国的行动中获益，美国（联盟）选择它的应对方案的出发点就是止损。阻止中国快速地扩张...
