The Ageless GenerationHow Advances in Biomedicine Will Transform the Global EconomyAlex Zhavoronkov, PhD, is the director and trustee of the Biogerontology Research Foundation, a think tank supporting aging research worldwide. He heads the laboratory of bioinformatics at the Clinical Research Center for Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology, and is involved in the World Federation for Regenerative Medicine and the European Federation for Regenerative Medicine.Over the past 20 years, the biomedical research community has been delivering hundreds of breakthroughs expected to extend human lifespan beyond thresholds imaginable today. However, much of this research has not yet been adopted into clinical practice, nor has it been widely publicized. Biomedicine will transform our society forever by allowing people to live longer and to continue working and contributing financially to the economy longer, rather than entering into retirement and draining the economy through pensions and senior healthcare. Old age will become a concept of the past, breakthroughs in regenerative medicine will continue, and an unprecedented boom to the global economy, with an influx of older able-bodied workers and consumers, will be a reality. A leading expert in aging research, author Alex Zhavoronkov provides a helicopter view on the progress science has already made, from repairing tissue damage to growing functional organs from a single cell, and illuminates the possibilities that the scientific and medical community will soon make into realities. The Ageless Generation is an engaging work that causes us to rethink our ideas of age and ability in the modern world.$34.95 Hb, ISBN 9780230342200, NZRP$44.95Publish August 2013, 256 pagesPalgrave Macmillan

On Western TerrorismFrom Hiroshima to Drone WarfareNoam Chomsky is is Institute Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy at MIT and the author of numerous books for Pluto Press, including A New Generation Draws the Line. Andre Vltchek is a novelist, filmmaker, investigative journalist and playwright. He is the author of a number of books including Indonesia (Pluto, 2012).In On Western Terrorism Noam Chomsky, the renowned scholar and arguably the world's greatest dissident intellectual, discusses the West's complicity in acts of terror with filmmaker and investigative journalist Andre Vltchek. Chomsky and Vltchek address a wide range of issues: from colonialism and its impact on today's world, to the destruction of the environment and local cultures. Beginning with a careful exploration of the concepts of terrorism, colonialism and genocide, they then apply them to Western foreign policy across a number of case studies. A blast of fresh air which blows away the cobwebs of propaganda and deception, On Western Terrorism is a powerful and controversial critique of the West's role in the world.$29.95 Pb, ISBN 9780745333878, NZRP$34.95Publish August 2013, 200 pagesPluto

From the book:Eventually, as longevity and healthy aging become the rule instead of the exception, nations would no longer need to have an official retirement age. Seniors who have not saved enough to retire—the overwhelming majority, according to financial experts—could continue working to advanced age, maintaining their lifestyle with sufficiently good health to enjoy those added years.

From the book:NOAM CHOMSKY

US power is still overwhelming and scarcely challenged, but it is declining. They cannot now do things like what they used to do. They can’t just overthrow governments in Latin America. They don’t have the military force to intervene elsewhere, in the Middle East and so on.

ANDRE VLTCHEKBut they did. The Obama Administration managed to overthrow two left-wing governments in Latin America recently. I agree with you that proportionally, US is controlling a smaller chunk of the economy then it did after WWII, but now the Empire combines both the US and EU, and even, arguably, Japan. If these three powers are combined, the situation is not too different from the end of WWII.

Confucian ReflectionsAncient Wisdom for Modern TimesPhilip J Ivanhoe, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong.Confucian Reflections: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times is about the early Chinese Confucian classic the "Analects" Lunyu, attributed to the founder of the Confucian tradition, Kongzi (551-479 bce) and who is more commonly referred to as "Confucius" in the West. Philip J. Ivanhoe argues that the Analects is as relevant and important today as it has proven to be over the course of its more than 2000 year history, not only for the people who live in East Asian societies but for all human beings. The fact that this text has inspired so many talented people for so long, across a range of complex, creative, rich, and fascinating cultures offers a strong prima facie reason for thinking that the insights the Analects contains are not bound by either the particular time or cultural context in which the text took shape.$49.95 Pb, ISBN 9780415844888, NZRP$59.95Publish August 2013, 160 pagesRoutledge

Agrarian Sociology of Ancient CivilizationsMax Weber is the writer of Economy and Society, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, The City, and The Sociology of Religion. The Agrarian Sociology of Ancient Civilizations - Weber's neglected masterpiece which first appeared in German in 1897 and was reissued in 1909 - represents a fascinating and rigorous exercise to bring the newly-forged concepts of sociology to bear on civilizations as diverse as Mesopotamia and Egypt, Hebrew society in Israel, the city-states of classical Greece, the Hellenistic empire and, finally, republican and imperial Rome. Blending, throughout the work, description of socio-economic structures with investigation into mechanisms and causes of the rise and decline of social systems, the volume ends with a magisterial explanatory essay on the underlying reasons for the ultimate fall of the Roman Empire and, with it, of the close of Antiquity itself.

Ancient Near EastDaniel Snell, University of Oklahoma, USA.Ancient Near East surveys the history of the ancient Middle East from the invention of writing to Alexander the Great's conquest. The book introduces both the physical and intellectual environment of those times, the struggles of state-building and empire construction, and the dissent from those efforts. Topics covered include what do we mean when we talk about the Ancient Near East; the rise and fall of powerful states and monarchs; daily life both in the cities and out in the fields; the legacy of the Ancient Near East: religion, science and writing systems.

Religion and the Rise of CapitalismR. H. Tawney (1880-1962) was an English economic historian, social critic, ethical socialist, Christian socialist and an important proponent of adult education. R. H. Tawney addresses the question of how religion has affected social and economic practices. He tracks the influence of religious thought on capitalist economy and ideology since the Middle Ages, shedding light on the question of why Christianity continues to exert a unique role in the marketplace. The book offers an incisive analysis of the morals and mores of contemporary Western culture. In tough, muscular, richly varied prose, he tells an absorbing and meaningful story. Adam Seligman details Tawney's background and the current status of academic thought on these issues, and he provides a comparative analysis of Tawney with Max Weber that will at once delight and inform readers.

BioethicsProfessor Alastair V. Campbell, National University of Singapore, Singapore. Bioethics is an introduction to the foundational principles, theories and issues in the study of medical and biological ethics. Readers are introduced to bioethics from the ground up before being invited to consider some of the most controversial but important questions facing us today. Topics addressed include the range of moral theories underpinning bioethics; arguments for the rights and wrongs of abortion, euthanasia and animal research; healthcare ethics including the nature of the practitioner-patient relationship; public policy ethics and the implications of global and public health.

PHILOSOPHY

“This book is a real treasure. Ivanhoe is one of the world’s most respected scholars in the field of early Chinese thought. In his new book he brings his great learning to bear in helping us understand the Analects of Confucius, one of the most influential books in world history, as it was originally intended. But he does much more. He draws the reader into the text by showing how it speaks to us as moderns, wherever we may live or whatever other traditions are meaningful to us. It is a short book that gives us a great deal to think about and that any educated reader can appreciate.” -Robert N. Bellah, University of California, Berkeley.

The American CrucibleSlavery, Emancipation and Human RightsRobin Blackburn, University of Essex in the UK. For over three centuries, slavery in the Americas fuelled the growth of capitalism. The stirrings of a revolutionary age in the late eighteenth century challenged this ‘peculiar institution’ and set the scene for great acts of emancipation in Haiti in 1804, in the United States in the 1860s, and Brazil in the 1880s. Blackburn argues that the anti-slavery movement helped forge the political and social ideals we live by today.

A Civil WarA History of the Italian ResistanceClaudio Pavone, University of Pisa, Italy.Claudio Pavone's masterwork, widely recognized as the key reference on the Italian Resistance, addresses crucial issues related to the transition from fascist Italy to the postwar period, viewed from the perspective of the morality at work amongst the protagonists. In an analysis of the events between September 1943 and April 1945, Claudio Pavone distinguishes three processes: a patriotic war, a civil war and a class war-three wars which were often fought by the same actors. He thus introduces a new interpretation capable of grasping all the nuances of a historical event of great complexity.

Inventing PeaceA Dialogue on PerceptionWim Wenders, University of Fine Arts in Hamburg, Germany and Mary Zournazi, University of New South Wales, Australia. Inventing Peace revolves around the question of how we look at the world, but do not see it when there is so much war, injustice, suffering and violence. What are the ethical and moral consequences of looking, but not seeing, and, most of all, what has become of the notion of peace in all this? In the form of a written dialogue, Wim Wenders and Mary Zournazi consider this question as one of the fundamental issues of our times as well as the need to reinvent a visual and moral language for peace. Inspired by various cinematic, philosophical, literary and artistic examples, Wenders and Zournazi reflect on the need for a change of perception in the everyday as well as in the creation of images.

Islamic Fundamentalism since 1945Second EditionBeverley Milton-Edwards, Queen's University, Belfast, UKThis fully revised and updated second edition of Islamic Fundamentalism since 1945 analyzes the roots and emergence of Islamic movements in the modern world and the main thinkers that inspired them. Providing a much-needed historical overview, the main facts of Islamic fundamentalism are put in a global context, with a thematic debate of issues such as the effects of colonialism on Islam, secularism and the Islamic reaction, Islam and violence, globalization and transnational Islamic movements, and the Arab Spring. Islamic Fundamentalism since 1945 provides an authoritative account of the causes and diversity of Islamic fundamentalism, a modern phenomenon which affects nations throughout the world.

One Family's ShoahVictimization, Resistance, Survival in Nazi EuropeHerbert S. Lindenberger is the Avalon Foundation Professor of Humanities, Emeritus at Stanford University, USA. Deploying concepts of interpretation, liberation, and survival, esteemed literary critic Herbert Lindenberger reflects on his family's experiences during the Holocaust. Moving, painful, and uplifting, One Family's Shoah records the diverse fates experienced by descendants of a once-prominent Berlin businessman, Isaak Lindenberger - fates that include deportation to Theresienstadt and Auschwitz, execution for participating in anti-Nazi sabotage, a miraculous escape from Denmark to Sweden, and, for a lucky few, emigration to safe countries before World War II began. By viewing public, family, and personal records through the lens of literary, musical, and art criticism, One Family's Shoah suggests a new way of writing cultural history.

BuraimiThe Struggle for Power, Influence and Oil in ArabiaMichael Quentin Morton.Buraimi is a small oasis in an otherwise bleak desert. In the early 20th century it shot to notoriety as oil brough the world's attention to this corner of the Arabian Peninsula. In this exciting account of the conflict Michael Quentin Morton tells the story of how the overwhelming power of oil and the conflicting interests of the declining British Empire and the United States all came to a head shaping the future of the Gulf States.

The Conundrum of Russian CapitalismThe Post-Soviet Economy in the World SystemRuslan Dzarasov, Russian Academy of Sciences, Russia. Ruslan Dzarasov reveals the nature of Russian capitalism following the fall of the Soviet Union, showing how the system originated in both the degenerated Soviet bureaucracy and the pressures of global capital. He provides an unprecedented analysis of Russian firms' corporate governance and labour practices, and makes sense of their peculiar investment strategies. This groundbreaking study proves that Russia's new capitalism is not a break with the country's Stalinist past, but is in fact the continuation of that tradition. At the same time, the brutal and deficient character of the current system also reflects the realities of the modern globalised and financialised world capitalist system.

The Ellen Meiksens Wood ReaderEllen Meiksens Wood; Edited by Larry PatriquinEllen Meiksins Wood is a leading contemporary political theorist who has been described as the founder, together with Robert Brenner, of ‘Political Marxism,' a distinct version of historical materialism which has inspired a research program that spans a number of academic disciplines. Organized thematically, this Reader provides an overview of her original interpretations of capitalism, and many different topics.

Final SolutionsHuman Nature, Capitalism and GenocideSabby Sagall writes regularly for the Socialist Review and Socialist Worker. Final Solutions offers a ground-breaking and genuinely unique analysis of modern genocide. Sabby Sagall draws on the insights of the Frankfurt school and Wilhelm Reich to create an innovative combination of Marxism and psychoanalysis. He argues that genocide is a product of an ‘irrational' destructiveness by social classes or communities that have suffered major historical defeats or similar forms of extreme stress. Sagall shows how the denial of human needs and the ensuing feelings of isolation and powerlessness propel groups to project their impotent rage, hatred and destructiveness engendered by these defeats on to the 'outsider' and the 'other'. The book applies this theoretical framework to four modern genocides - that of the Native Americans, the Armenians, the Jews and the Rwandan Tutsis.

FoodopolyThe Battle Over the Future of Food and Farming in AmericaWenonah Hauter.Hauter believes that the local food movement is not enough to solve America's food crisis and the public health debacle it has created. In Foodopoly, she takes aim at the real culprit: the massive consolidation and corporate control of food production, which prevents farmers from raising healthy crops and limits the choices that people can make in the grocery store. Hauter presents a shocking account of how agricultural policy has been hijacked by lobbyists, driving out independent farmers and food processors in favor of the likes of Cargill, Tyson, Kraft, and ConAgra. She demonstrates how the impacts ripple far and wide, from economic stagnation in rural communities at home, to famines in poor countries overseas.

Governing BritainPower, Politics and the Prime MinisterPatrick Diamond, University of Manchester, UK.Number 10 Downing Street and the Cabinet Office are at the apex of power in Britain. Patrick Diamond examines the administrative and political machinery serving the Prime Minister, and considers how it evolved from the early years of New Labour to the election of the Coalition Government in 2010. Diamond provides a unique analysis which considers the continuing power of the civil service, the tensions between permanent officials and political aides and the hard grind of achieving change from the centre in Whitehall and Westminster. By exploring the ideological beliefs underpinning the decision-making process and illuminating the importance of the 'British Political Tradition', this book reveals the contemporary realities of government and democracy in practice.

Left Without a Future?Social Justice After the CrashAnthony Painter is the author of Barack Obama: The Movement for Change.The roots of the recent financial crisis can be found in the substantial changes which have affected British economy and society over the last three decades. A central statist, ideal-oriented version of Social Democracy can only go so far in the post-crash economy and society, hence the ease with which many of New Labour's reforms and resource allocation have since been reversed by the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition. The centre-left has always been at its strongest when building new long-term institutions such as the NHS, expanding higher education, establishing the national minimum wage and increasing access to national parks. Anthony Painter here argues that this institution-building tradition is the one to which the left should return. He advocates new economic, social and cultural policies which provide a manifesto for the future development of Social Democracy in Britain.

No Place to Call HomeGypsies, Travellers, and the Road beyond Dale FarmKatharine Quarmby reports on politics and current affairs for The Economist.For centuries the Roma have wandered Europe; during the Holocaust half a million were killed. Throughout the Troubles, thousands of Irish Travellers fled to England for safety. They found places to settle down - but then, as Occupy was taking over Wall Street and London, the vocal Dale Farm community was evicted from their land. Many did not leave their homes quietly; they put up a legal - and at times very physical - fight. Katharine Quarmby takes us into the heat of the battle, following the Sheridan, McCarthy, and Flynt families before and after the eviction, from Dale Farm to Meriden and other "outlaw" communities. Based on exclusive access and rich historical research, No Place to Call Home is a deeply moving and stunning narrative of long-sought justice.

Reflections on Anti-SemitismAlain Badiou, Collège international de philosophie, France; Eric Hazan is the founder of the publisher La Fabrique and the author of several books; and Ivan Segré is a doctor in philosophy and student of the Talmud who lives in Israel. He is also the author of Qu'appelle-t-on penser Auschwitz?Since the beginning of the War on Terror, Israel has become increasingly salient to imperial strategy and ever more aggressive in its policies toward the Palestinians. In this context, a key ideological weapon is the cynical accusation of "anti-Semitism." For historical reasons, this has been deployed most forcefully in France, and Alain Badiou and Eric Hazan caustically demolish the "anti-Semitism is everywhere" allegation, used to bludgeon opponents of the Israeli state and those who stand in solidarity with the banlieue youth. Ivan Segré undertakes a meticulous deconstruction of a rampant "reactionary philo-Semitism" that identifies Jewish interests with the "democratic West."

Ruling the VoidThe Hollowing of Western DemocracyPeter Mair (1951-2011), European University Institute, Florence. Throughout the long-established democracies of Western Europe, electoral turnouts are in decline, party membership is shrinking in the major parties, and those who remain loyal partisans are being sapped of enthusiasm. Peter Mair's new book weighs the impact of these changes, which together show that, after a century of democratic aspiration, electorates are deserting the political arena. He examines the alarming parallel development that has seen Europe's political elites remodel themselves as a homogeneous professional class, withdrawing into state institutions that offer relative stability in a world of fickle voters.

Edward LearA LifePeter Levi, FSA, FRSL (1931-2000) was a poet, archaeologist, Jesuit priest, travel writer, scholar, biographer and critic.Edward Lear - beloved nonsense poet, author of such adored poems as The Owl and the Pussycat, inventor of otherworldly characters like Quangle-Wangles and of the modern limerick; lauded artist and illustrator - was a genius who defies classification. In this captivating biography, fellow poet Peter Levi renders descriptions of Lear's sketches and watercolours (of which he painted some 10,000 in the course of his career) and provides incisive portraits of his classic poems, setting them in the wider context of traditional nursery rhymes.

FrancoThe Biography of the MythAntonio Cazorla-SanchezGeneral Francisco Franco, also called the Caudillo, was the dictator of Spain from 1939 until his death in 1975. His life has been examined in many previous biographies. In this new biography Antonio Cazorla-Sanchez looks at Franco from a fresh perspective, emphasizing the cultural and social over the political. Cazorla-Sanchez's Franco uses previously unknown archival sources to analyse how the dictator was portrayed by the propaganda machine, how the opposition tried to undermine his prestige, and what kind of opinions, rumours and myths people formed of him, and how all these changed over time. The author argues that the collective construction of Franco's image emerged from a context of material needs, the political traumas caused by the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), the complex cultural workings of a society in distress, political manipulation, and the lack of any meaningful public debate.

An Impatient LifeA MemoirDaniel Bensaïd (1946-2010) taught philosophy at the University of Paris VIII, and was the author of books on Marxism, Walter Benjamin, the French Revolution and Joan of Arc. Foreword by Tariq Ali. In the classic tradition of the philosopher-activist, Daniel Bensaïd tells the story of a life deeply entwined with the history of both the French and the international Left. From his family bistro in a staunchly red neighborhood of Toulouse to the founding of the Jeunesses communistes revolutionnaires in the 1960s, from the joyous explosion of May 1968 to the painful experience of defeat in Latin America, from the re-reading of Marx to the "Marrano" trail, Bensaïd relates a life of ideological and practical struggle in which he unflinchingly sought to understand capitalism without ever succumbing to its temptations.

The Letters of Rosa LuxemburgRosa Luxemburg (1871-1919) was a Polish-born Jewish revolutionary and one of the greatest theoretical minds of the European socialist movement. The most comprehensive collection of letters by Rosa Luxemburg ever published in English, this book includes 190 letters written to leading figures in the European and international labor and socialist movements - Leo Jogiches, Karl Kautsky, Clara Zetkin and Karl Liebknecht - who were among her closest friends, lovers and colleagues. Many of these letters appear for the first time in English translation; all help to illuminate the inner life of this iconic revolutionary, who was at once an economic and social theorist, a political activist and a lyrical stylist. Her political concerns are revealed alongside her personal struggles within a socialist movement that was often hostile to independently minded women. This collection will provide readers with a newer and deeper appreciation of Luxemburg as a writer and historical figure.

Salvador AllendeA Revolutionary LegacyVictor Figueroa Clark, London School of Economics, UK.This is a political biography of one of the 20th Century's most emblematic political figures - Salvador Allende, who was president of Chile until he was ousted by General Pinochet in a US-supported coup in 1973. Victor Figueroa Clark guides us through Allende's life and political project, answering some of the most frequently asked questions. Was he a revolutionary or a reformist? A bureaucrat or inspirational democrat? Clark argues that Allende and the Popular Unity process he led were a symbol of hope for the left during their short time in power. Forty years on, and with democratic left-wing governments in power across Latin America, this book looks back at the man and the process in order to understand what their legacy is for Chile and the world today.

The Unknown David Lloyd GeorgeA Statesman in ConflictTravis L. Crosby, Wheaton College, USA.David Lloyd George is widely regarded as one of the most effective British prime ministers of the twentieth century. A dynamic speaker and committed social reformer, he led Britain successfully through the devastation of World War I and had a powerful impact on international politics. In the post-war peace treaties, he sought a just, rather than a vengeful, settlement for the defeated powers in an attempt to preserve a peaceful international order. Whilst Lloyd George's achievements were undoubtedly substantial, his political record was not entirely without blemish and, in his personal life, he was a fascinating and complex character. Renowned as a womaniser, after 1913 he retained two separate households - one with his wife and one with his mistress, his former private secretary.

Branching OutGerman-Jewish Immigration to the United StatesAvraham Barkai's most recent publications include From Boycott to Annihilation: The Economic Struggle of German Jews, 1933-1943 and Nazi Economics: Ideology, Theory, and Policy.Choice Outstanding Academic Book Branching Out vividly tells the story of the migration of many thousands of German Jews-mostly poor, enterprising young people-to the US during the nineteenth century. Avraham Barkai draws on rare letters, diaries, memoirs, newspapers, journals, and other firsthand accounts as he chronicles the immigrants' experiences in towns and cities across the country, in the goldfields of California, on Indian reservations, on the battlefields of the Civil War, weaving their experiences into an account of the formative role they played in establishing the institutional framework of the American Jewish community. He also shows the significant impact on them as their influential networks were dramatically challenged at the turn of the century by the mass migration of Jews from Eastern Europe.

Rochelle Saidel offers a detailed analysis of how local power brokers, real estate developers, major political players, and various groups within the national Jewish community influenced the memorial's progress from 1947 until the Museum of Jewish Heritage finally opened in 1997 on the shore of the Hudson River.

The Distant Friend (A Novel)Jewish Immigrant Workers in the Belle EpoquePrizewinning author Claude Roy (1915-1997) played a major role in the French cultural scene for the greater part of the twentieth century.Nothing ever happens to Etienne. Born into a provincial French family, he grows up in the shadow of his ambitious successful brother. His personality passive, his life uneventful, he is resigned to his own inferiority--until he meets Stefan. German, Jewish, outgoing, and cosmopolitan, Stefan Stein could hardly be more unlike Etienne. Yet, when the two young teenagers first meet, they form a friendship that lasts for five decades, though their lives follow very different paths. In an attempt to come to terms with the sense of emptiness that threatens to overwhelm him, Etienne resolves to capture the story of his friendship with Stefan and thus becomes the narrator of this novel. From its matter-of-fact beginning to its bittersweet end, The Distant Friend reveals Etienne's sensitivity to the beauty and brutality of humanity, and the book's creation becomes his homage to life.

Writing the Book of Esther (A Novel)Jewish Immigrant Workers in the Belle EpoqueHenri Raczymow lives in Paris and is the prizewinning author of numerous novels, stories, essays, cultural criticism, and literary portraits devoted to Jewish themes.Mathieu, the narrator of this novel, is compelled by his older sister's suicide to confront the effects of his family's tragic past. Born after the war, Mathieu is left to grapple with recovering his sister's memories-which he had resolutely tried to deny-and with it the meaning of his own identity, family origins, and historical predicament. As neither victim, survivor, nor witness, does he have the right to give voice to the unimaginable? Or is he a voyeur and imposter, usurping the lives of the real victims? Placing in bold relief the hidden thoughts and struggles of the generation that has inherited the anger, sadness, guilt, and fear-but not the actual memory-of the Nazi genocide, Henri Raczymow gives an authentic and powerful voice to its grim legacy in our time.

Viral HateContaining Its Spread on the InternetAbraham H. Foxman is the national director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). Christopher Wolf serves as the director of Hogan Lovell LLP's Privacy and Information Management practice group.Even as the Internet nurtures global connections among peoples, a darker side of humanity is capitalizing on the pervasive nature of the world’s most powerful technology at our fingertips. Emboldened by anonymity, individuals and organizations from both left and right are freely spewing hateful vitriol without worrying about repurcussions. And thanks to the guarantees of the First Amendment and the borderless nature of the Internet, governing bodies are largely helpless to control this massive assault on human dignity and safety. Abe Foxman and Christopher Wolf explore the threat that this unregulated flow of bigotry poses to the world. They explore how social media companies like Facebook and YouTube as well as search engine giant Google are struggling to reconcile the demands of business with freedom of speech and the disturbing threat posed by today’s purveyors of hate. And they explain the best tools available to citizens, parents, educators, law enforcement officers and policy makers to protect the twin values of transparency and responsibility. As Foxman and Wolf show, only an aroused and engaged citizenry can stop the hate contagion before it spirals out of control - with potentially disastrous results. $39.95 Hb, ISBN 9780230342170, NZRP$49.95Publish August 2013, 256 pagesPalgrave Macmillan

INTERNET/SOCIETY & CULTURE

SALES & MARKETING

From the book: “The ease and rapidity with which websites, social media pages, video and audio downloads, and instant messages can be created and disseminated online makes Internet propaganda almost impossible to track, control, and combat. Links, viral emails, and “re-tweets” enable lies to self-propagate with appalling speed. Hate begets hate, and its widespread appearance makes it seem increasingly acceptable and normal in a world where traditional standards of honesty, tolerance, and civility are rapidly deteriorating.”

From the book: “In the mobile shopping revolution, the mobile empowered customer, the m-powered consumer, is totally in charge. They have new power in the palms of their hands, they are leading marketers on new ways they want to use it, and there are a lot of them. With more than 6 billion mobile subscriptions globally, the majority of people have a phone, in many places, more than one. These mobile shoppers are participating in a new path to purchase.”

OTC Derivatives explains the new rules and the new models. It discusses the traditional bilateral market, then sets out how this will change due to central clearing and the new ways in which OTC derivatives will be traded. The risks of OTC derivatives clearing houses are discussed in detail, as are the protections that CCPs have against these risks. We also look at alternatives to some of the policy decisions, showing the balance between different costs and benefits of various approaches to derivatives market stability.

Morals and MarketsThe Dangerous Balance, Second EditionDaniel Friedman, University of California, USA and Daniel McNeill, Harvard Law School, USA.Economist Daniel Friedman draws on recent research in evolutionary game theory and behavioral economics to explore the relationship between our moral codes and our market systems. Friedman traces the evolutionary history of morals and markets, and argues that both are devices humans have evolved to cope with the inherent conflict between individual and group needs. Friedman shows how imbalance between morals and markets is at the root of such problems as the recent corporate scandals in the United States including the global financial crisis the world continues to face. On the other hand, balance between moral and market concerns has resulted in creative, sustainable solutions to some of our most intractable problems.

The ReckoningDebt Democracy and the Future of American PowerMichael Moran is author of The Reckoning blog on Slate and has won numerous awards for his work on behalf of the Council on Foreign Relations, the BBC, and MSNBC.com.Today, a host of forces are converging to challenge America’s cherished notion of exceptionalism, and risky economic and foreign policies have steadily eroded the power structure that has been in place since the Cold War. The author explores the challenges ahead - and what, if anything, can be done to prevent chaos as America loses its perch at the top of the mountain. He warns that the coming shift will have serious consequences not just for the United States, but for the wider world. Moran describes how, with a bit of wise leadership, America can weather the transition gracefully - by managing entitlements, reigniting sustainable growth, reforming immigration policy, and breaking the poisonous deadlock in Washington.

Tribal Marketing, Tribal BrandingBrand Co-creation and the Future of MarketingBrendan Richardson, University College Cork, Ireland.The face of consumer marketing has changed.

Featuring insightful examples and case studies, Tribal Marketing, Tribal Branding incorporates the approach of ethno-marketing to expertly explain the opportunities for marketing and branding professionals to co-create brands with, and develop new ways of marketing to, tribal groups and brand communities.

Theatre and AnimalsLourdes Orozco is Lecturer in Theatre Studies at the Workshop Theatre, University of Leeds, UK. She co-edited two special issues of Contemporary Theatre Review focusing on Catalan Theatre and Flemish Theatre, and is currently working on an edited collection, Performing Animality: Animals in Performance Practices, with Jennifer Parker-Starbuck.All animals have the ability to make us question the human, and its relationship to the other. This cutting-edge text addresses the implications of involving animals in performance. It demonstrates ways in which animals transform theatre's capacity to make meaning, and suggests they expose theatre's negotiations with wider ethical, social and economic questions. Ultimately, the book argues that incorporating animals into performance brings about a reassessment of the ways in which theatre is produced and received.

Theatre and ViolenceLucy Nevitt was formerly Senior Lecturer in Theatre Studies at the University of the West of England, UK. She trained as an actor combatant with BASSC and has published research in staged combat, sport and spectacle. She is currently working on a project investigating the connections between theatre and science.If violence is a terrible thing, why do we watch it? Nevitt explores the use of violence in theatre and its effect on spectators. Critically engaging with examples of stage combat, rape, terrorism, wrestling and historical re-enactments, she argues that studying violence through theatre can be part of a desire to create a more peaceful world.

Theatre-MakingInterplay Between Text and Performance in the 21st CenturyDuška Radosavljev, University of Kent, UK. Exploring modes of authorship in contemporary theatre, Theatre-Making seeks to transcend the heritage of binaries from the twentieth century, such as: text-based vs. devised theatre, East vs. West, theatre vs. performance - with reference to genealogies through which these categories have been constructed in the English-speaking world. Based on substantial original research, Theatre-Making is innovative in that it brings together text-based and performance-based theatre, and offer their consideration with reference to different cultures (European vs. Anglo-American). Examples under discussion range from the Royal Shakespeare Company's kinaesthetic approach to Shakespeare, to the Belgian company Ontroerend Goed's interactive shows.

In doing so, this book provides an overview of the ongoing imbalances faced by women in the media and looks at the key issues hindering gender equality in journalism.

Animal BehaviourJohn Byers is Professor of Zoology at the University of Idaho. He has written a number of books and articles on the subject of animal behavior, including American Pronghorn, which was awarded Book of the Year by the Wildlife Society in 1998. He is a Fellow of the Animal Behavior Society and currently resides in Moscow, USA.Why do birds have regional accents? Can horses learn maths? What do animals without eyes see? Questions such as these have fascinated scientists and animal lovers alike long before ethology - the study of animal behavior - became recognised as a science in the 1970s. Now, as issues of conservation and welfare dominate the field, an understanding of how and why animals act the way they do has become even more critical. Drawing together evolutionary theory, ecology, population biology, genetics, physiology, and anatomy to demonstrate the diversity involved when studying animals, Byers explains the mechanisms and motivations behind a range of animal movements. Readers are equipped with the core knowledge and skills to further their own studies and better understand the natural world that surrounds us.$24.95 Pb, ISBN 9781780742601, NZRP$29.95Publish August 2013, 192 pagesOneworld Publications

Bankrupting PhysicsHow Today's Top Scientists are Gambling Away Their CredibilityAlexander Unzicker is a German theoretical physicist and neuroscientist whose work has been covered in Physics World and Sheilla Jones is the author of The Quantum Ten and an award-winning Canadian journalist and a science contributor to CBC. She reviews science books for The Globe and Mail and the Literary Review of Canada. The recently celebrated discovery of the Higgs boson has captivated the public's imagination with the promise that it can explain the origins of everything in the universe. It's no wonder that the media refers to it grandly as the "God particle". Yet behind closed doors, physicists are admitting that there is much more to this story, and even years of gunning the Large Hadron Collider and herculean number crunching may still not lead to a deep understanding of the laws of nature. In this fascinating and eye-opening account, theoretical physicist Alexander Unzicker and science writer Sheilla Jones offer a polemic. They question whether the large-scale, multinational enterprises actually lead us to the promised land of understanding the universe. The two scientists take us on a tour of contemporary physics and show how a series of highly publicized theories met a dead end. Unzicker and Jones systematically unpack the recent hot theories such as "parallel universes," "string theory," and "inflationary cosmology," and provide an accessible explanation of each. They argue that physics has abandoned its evidence-based roots and shifted to untestable mathematical theories, and they issue a clarion call for the science to return to its experimental foundation.$34.95 Hb, ISBN 9781137278234, NZRP$44.95Publish August 2013, 256 pagesPalgrave Macmillan

Architecture and Capitalism1845 to the PresentPeggy Deamer, Yale University, USA. Architecture and Capitalism tells a story of the relationship between the economy and architectural design. Eleven historians each discuss in brand new essays the time period they know best, looking at cultural and economic issues, which in light of current economic crises you will find have dealt with diverse but surprisingly familiar economic issues. Told through case studies, the narrative begins in the mid-nineteenth century and ends with 2011, with introductions by Editor Peggy Deamer to pull the main themes together so that you can see how other architects in different times and in different countries have dealt with similar economic conditions. With new essays by Pier Vittorio Aureli, Ellen Dunham-Jones, Keller Easterling, Lauren Kogod, Robert Hewison, Joanna Merwood-Salisbury, Robin Schuldenfrei, Deborah Gans, Simon Sadler, Nathan Rich, and Michael Sorkin.

Nature's SavioursCelebrity Conservationists in the Television AgeGraham Huggan, University of Leeds, UK. Today's celebrity conservationists, many of whom made their reputations through television and other visual media, play a major role in drawing public attention to an increasingly threatened world. This book focuses on five key figures: the English naturalist David Attenborough, the French marine adventurer Jacques-Yves Cousteau, the American primatologist Dian Fossey, the Canadian scientist-broadcaster-activist David Suzuki, and the Australian 'crocodile hunter' Steve Irwin. The book critically examines the heroic status accorded to the five figures mentioned above, taking in the various discourses - around nature, science, nation, gender - through which they and their work have been presented to us. In doing so, it fills in the cultural, historical and ideological background behind contemporary celebrity conservationism as a popular expression of a chronically endangered world.

Exploring Climate Change through Science and in SocietyAn Anthology of Mike Hulme's Essays, Interviews and SpeechesMike Hulme, University of East Anglia, UK.The argument that Mike Hulme has made powerfully over the last few years is that climate change has to be understood as much as an idea situated in different cultural contexts as it is as a physical phenomenon to be studied through universal scientific practices. This book gathers together for the first time a collection of his most popular, prominent and controversial articles, essays, speeches, interviews and reviews dating back to the late 1980s. The 50 or so short items are grouped together in seven themes - Science, Researching, Culture, Policy, Communicating, Controversy, Futures - and within each theme are arranged chronologically to reveal changing ideas, evidence and perspectives about climate change. Three substantive unpublished new essays have been specially written for the book.

The Costs and Benefits of Animal ExperimentsFew ethical issues create as much controversy as invasive experiments on animals. Some scientists claim they are essential for combating major human diseases, or detecting human toxins. Others claim the contrary, backed by thousands of patients harmed by pharmaceuticals developed using animal tests. Some claim all experiments are conducted humanely, to high scientific standards. Yet, a wealth of studies have recently revealed that laboratory animals suffer significant stress, which may distort experimental results.

From the book:“The CERN particle search is the most expensive experiment ever conducted, and the thousands of scientists conducting particle research there had to celebrate any outcome as a breakthrough, if only to justify the billions of dollars of public money being spent.We have seen expert analysts parroting each other’s euphoric statements when the underlying construction, based entirely on confidence, is about to crash. And we all saw what happened in the recent economic crash when that confidence bubble burst.”
