| Beschreibung: | This is not just a book about medieval knights and Roman soldiers. This title offers something quite different because it looks at every sort of armor, in every application: from a snail to a 50,000-tonne battleship! Armour doesn't just offer protection from bullets and swords, because lethal force can be anything from a lion's claw to a burst of radiation. This entertaining and informative book looks at some rather unusual armor, such as spacesuits, police riot uniforms, builder's helmets, deep sea diving vessels and plastic armor, the material for the armor of the future, as well as examining animal armor and people in armor through the ages Earth's armor -- Coastal defense -- Animal armor -- Plant armor -- Primitive protection -- Ancient armor -- Classical armor -- Medieval armor -- Making armor -- Bloody battles -- Fighting for fun -- Asian armor -- Armor in decline -- Armor makes a comeback -- Modern armor -- Athletic armor -- Industrial armor -- Safety suits -- War wagons -- Birth of the tank -- Modern tanks -- Armored trains -- Early armored ships -- Battle of the ironclads: U.S.S. Monitor vs. C.S.S. Virginia -- Modern battleships -- Deep-sea diving vessels -- Armored planes -- Armored buildings -- Iron island -- Forts on land -- Magic armor -- Private armor |
