Overview
Here is the first draft of my 32 Chapter book table of contents with brief descriptions for each chapter followed by brief titles of the 216 press releases with their dates of release relevant to each chapter, listing in reverse chronological order.
The working book title is "Weather Wealth and Wars," subtitled "Empire and Climate Economics."
1. Introduction to Empire Theory

2. Social Decay of Empire. Empire societies are stagnant. As the frustration increases, win/lose "sideways" behaviors are rewarded. Crime increases, with drugs and gambling sought out to paper over the pain. Feudalism is the result, with the rise of militarism, the church, lords and serfs, at the expense of science and achievement.

3. Empire Trap. Empires go through several stages, rising due to natural defenses like oceans and a citizen military. Challenging the old empire in an epic battle gives one a taste of militarism. Power and control prove seductive enough to develop a permanent military that drags the whole system down over time.

CNN Top 5 All Empire 1/2/2016
Solstice Shopping 12/27/2014
4. Historical Cases. American myths about World War II and the Great Depression allowed the myth of military Keynesianism to grow despite many examples of disastrous war spending in other nations.

Ukraine Crimea 3/4/2014
5. International Military Economy. The resources used in the military budget are just like those of good producing industries like manufacturing. But there is no useful consumer product coming from the military. So military spending depletes key capital and scientific talent normally devoted to growth industries.
Technology Loser 12/21/2018
Military Economy Direct 3/6/2017
Nature of Military Spending 7/2/2016
Key Public Peace Economics 3/5/2016
War Occupy Economics 5/8/2015
Trade and the Military 1/17/2014
6. Regional Impact of Military Spending. All regions pay the military taxes, but only certain regions benefit from the spending, while other regions suffer recession from the tax drain. When the military is cut, the winners and losers switch places. The low military regions boom and the high military regions suffer.

Elections Plus 11/13/2014
MilitaryStates 4/26/2014
Key Midwest 1/21/2014
7. Military Spending Politics. Study of military buildups and builddowns shows that the power positions in congress share the military budget with the president's home state. All presidents elected during the Cold War came from high military spending states, thanks to fundraising and foreign focus advantages in those states.

8. Military Kondratiev Model. The model is based on military spending driving the economy down and deficits lifting the economy up. With those adjustments, the US, German, and world economy all follow a Kondratiev sine wave of 54 years, perfecting the fit every Juglar investment cycle of about nine years.

Technical Peace Economics 3/12/2016
Create Economic Model 2/14/2015
9. Defense Strategy. Timing is everything. With major wars coming every fifty years or so, eroding the economy with too high military spending too soon and for too long will leave the nation weak for the next major war.

10. Power Elite. Many corporate directors sit on both a major bank board and a major military contractor board. This helps explain the unholy alliance between business and the military. The press has similar overlap with the intelligence agencies.

11. Stock Market. Almost two months after the Republicans took over congress in 1994 you could have bought a cross section of major military stocks and still received an average gain of 70% eighteen months later.
Disruption of 8 Industries 5/22/2019
High Interest 11/11/2016
Class Warfare 10/18/2016
Trade Wars 6/18/2016
Banking and the Military 1/2/2014
12. Future. The future is fairly predictable. High military nations will lose share of the world economy and low military nations will gain share of the world economy. The major nations experiences both during and after the Cold War are readily explained by their military spending levels.

18. Evaporation and Water. Worldwide, 85% of solar radiation is used to evaporate water, higher over ocean and lower over land. This causes many complex land ocean interactions and makes the water cycle dominant over the temperature cycle.

Evaporation 7/19/2014
19. World Weather. The largest land mass on the planet dominates the worlds weather in many ways, with half the world's land in the Eurasia North Africa part of the Northern hemisphere. North America acts as a backwater to that Sahara Siberia dominated system.
Land Ocean Cycle 7/30/2016
20. Weather Cycle. With land three times as sensitive to temperature changes as the ocean, long cycles of major droughts, floods, volcanoes, earthquakes, hurricanes and blizzards can be documented in US weather. The Earth cycle pattern and causes are discussed.
