The Moneyless Man

How America’s Business Press Missed the Story of the Century

A Year of Freeconomic Living

Anya Schiffrin is the director of the media and communications program at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs. She spent ten years working overseas as a journalist in Europe and Asia. She lives in New York City.

Mark Boyle founded the ‘freeconomic’ movement in the UK. An economics graduate and former business director, his website (justfortheloveofit.org) receives 30,000 hits a day and has become a hub for community sharing with over 10,000 members. He is a columnist for the Guardian and Ethical Consumer magazine. Author’s proceds donated to charity to set up the world’s first Freeconomic Community.

As the recent U.S. financial crisis unfolded, journalists struggled to keep up with the biggest story of the century. After the markets unraveled and the economy began spiraling downward, reporters raced to cover an unfamiliar cast of characters and an alphabet soup of derivatives and toxic financial instruments. And in this midst of this collapse, ironically, the business of journalism itself hit the rocks, as the mainstream media grappled with collapsing ad revenues and falls in circulation. Did the press fail in its critical role as it gave into the irrational exuberance that fed the bubble itself? How do we explain these failures? The role of the business press in the current crisis strikes at the heart of the heated debate about the media’s role as guardians of our democratic society. With contributions - all but one original - from leading journalists and academics at the forefront of this issue, Bad News is the first attempt to navigate through a controversy that will be studied for decades to come. $34.95 Hb, ISBN 9781595585493, NZRP$39.95 Publish February 2011, 240 pages The New Press Quantity 9 781595 585493 Society

Imagine a year without spending or even touching money. Former businessman Mark Boyle did just that and here is his extraordinary story. Going back to basics and following his own strict rules, Mark learned ingenious ways to eliminate his bills and flourish for free. Encountering seasonal foods, solar panels, skill-swapping schemes, cuttlefish toothpaste, compost toilets and - the unthinkable - a cash-free Christmas, Boyle puts the fun into frugality and offers some great tips for economical (and environmentally friendly) living. A testament to Mark’s astounding determination, this witty and heart-warming book will make you re-evaluate your relationship to your wallet. $19.95 Pb, ISBN 9781851687879, NZRP$24.95 Publish February 2011, 336 pages Oneworld Publications Lifestyle Quantity

Deep Green Resistance

The Provisional IRA

Activist, philosopher, teacher, and leading voice of uncompromising dissent, Derrick Jensen holds degrees in creative writing and mineral engineering physics. His books include What We Leave Behind and As the World Burns. Lierre Keith is a writer, small farmer, and radical feminist activist, and the author of two novels.

From Insurrection to Parliament

For years, Derrick Jensen has asked his audiences, “Do you think this culture will undergo a voluntary transformation to a sane and sustainable way of life?” No one ever says yes. Deep Green Resistance starts where the environmental movement leaves off: industrial civilization is incompatible with life. Technology can’t fix it, and shopping - no matter how green - won’t stop it. To save this planet, we need a serious resistance movement that can bring down the industrial economy. Deep Green Resistance evaluates strategic options for resistance, from nonviolence to guerrilla warfare, and the conditions required for those options to be successful. It provides an exploration of organizational structures, recruitment, security, and target selection for both aboveground and underground action. It also discusses a culture of resistance and the crucial support role that it can play. Deep Green Resistance is a plan of action for anyone determined to fight for this planet - and win. $34.95 Pb, ISBN 9781583229293, NZRP$39.95 Publish February 2011, 592 pages Seven Stories Press Quantity Environment 9 781583 229293

Tommy McKearney was a senior member of the Provisional IRA in the early 1970s until his arrest in 1977. Sentenced to life imprisonment, he served 16 years during which time he participated in the 1980 hunger strike in the Maze. He is now a freelance journalist and an organiser with the Independent Workers Union. Where to next for the IRA? This engaging history analyses the reasons behind the formation of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), and surveys its activity and transformation through the years to the present day. Tommy McKearney, a former IRA member who played an important role in the early stages of the insurgency, explores the makeup and strategy of the IRA since its creation. He challenges the misconception that the Provisional IRA was only ever interested in uniting Ireland, arguing that opposition to the old Northern Ireland state was a major dynamic for the IRA’s armed campaign. He also argues that its inability to develop a clear socialist programme has limited its effectiveness and reach. The Provisional IRA provides a fascinating insight into the dynamics of this modern resistance movement and considers its prospects for the future. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9780745330747, NZRP$39.95 Publish February 2011, 256 pages Pluto History Quantity 9 780745 330747

An Army of Phantoms

Israeli Rejectionism

American Movies and the Making of the Cold War

The Secret History of the Middle East Peace Process

J. Hoberman is the senior film critic for the Village Voice, where he has worked for more than 30 years.

Daphna Levit has edited and contributed to numerous books on Middle Eastern Politics; and Zalman Amit, Concordia University, Canada.

The years between 1946 and 1956 brought U.S. dominance over Europe and a new war in Asia, as well as the birth of the civil rights movement and the stirrings of a new youth culture. The period saw the movie industry purged of its political left while the rise of ideological action hero John Wayne came to dominate theaters. Analyzing movies and media events, Hoberman has organized a pageant of cavalry Westerns, apocalyptic sci-fi flicks, and biblical spectaculars wherein atomic tests are shown on live TV, God talks on the radio, and Joe McCarthy is bracketed with Marilyn Monroe. $39.95 Hb, ISBN 9781595580054, NZRP$56.00 Publish February 2011, 432 pages Quantity The New Press The Arts

Following his hugely popular book, The Wisdom of Donkeys, Andy Merrifield breathes new life into the Marxist tradition. Magical Marxism demands something more of traditional Marxism something more interesting and liberating. It asks that we imagine a Marxism that moves beyond debates about class, the role of the state and the dictatorship of the proletariat. In escaping the formalist straitjacket of orthodox Marxist critique, Merrifield argues for a reconsideration of Marxism and its potential, applying previously unexplored approaches to Marxist thinking that will reveal vital new modes of political activism and debate. $39.95 Pb, ISBN 9780745330594, NZRp$54.00 Publish February 2011, 232 pages Pluto Quantity Politics

This book delves deep into the ‘peace process’ to find out why so little progress has been made on the key issues of the Palestine-Israel conflict. Zalman Amit and Daphna Levit find overwhelming evidence of Israeli rejectionism as the main cause for the failure of peace. The motivations behind this rejectionist position have changed, as have the circumstances of the conflict, but the conclusion has remained consistent - peace has not been in the interest of the state of Israel. $39.95 Pb, ISBN 9780745330280, NZRP$57.00 Publish February 2011, 216 pages Pluto Quantity Current Affairs

Edward Carr calls into question the very universal, unquestioned assumptions about globalization, development, and environmental change that undergird much of development and economic policy. Here he demonstrates how commonly held beliefs about globalization and development have fail the global poor. Over his 13 years of working along what he calls "globalization's shoreline", a world region buffeted by the economic, political, and environmental decisions of those living in wealthier places, Carr has concluded that most experts misunderstand what they are trying to fix, and cannot tell if they are fixing it. $54.95 Hb, ISBN 9780230110762, NZRP$59.95 Publish February 2011, 224 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Economics

A transnational, pan-African youth movement, Black Power in Bermuda sought freedom for Blacks from the island’s White oligarchy and independence from British colonialism. It was spearheaded by activists such as Pauulu Kamarakafego and the Black Beret Cadre. The Cadre maintained relationships with revolutionary organizations across the African Diaspora, such as the Black Panthers.

On the back of his natural talent for oratory, Cicero set out on the path to a glorious reputation - his earliest speeches brought the name of Cicero out of the shadows and hurled him into the spotlight. Following the Civil War, and with renewed hopes for the restoration of the Roman Republic, Cicero launched a fierce attack on Mark Antony by delivering a series of speeches that cannot be matched for their vigour. It was these speeches that would be the cause of Cicero’s death, and his death was to be as dramatic as his life. Kathryn Tempest’s life of Cicero and his times is as engaging as it is informative. $49.95 Hb, ISBN 9781847252463, NZRP$64.00 Publish February 2011, 256 pages Continuum Quantity History & Philosophy

Agnes Strickland’s Lives of the Queens of England (1840-8) marked a new era in the writing of English history by women. ‘Facts not opinions’ was the watchword of these historical biographies, which were based on pioneering manuscript research. Yet, as Antonia Fraser explains, the title-page attributing the Lives to Agnes Strickland masked a work of joint authorship. Agnes may have been the public figurehead of these works of historical biography, but her sister Elizabeth, who lived in seclusion, was Agnes’s collaborator, undertaking much of the writing and research. $28.00 Pb, ISBN 9781441109477, NZRP$32.00 Publish February 2011, 160 pages Continuum Quantity History & Philosophy

Marx’s fundamental concepts are not presented philosophically, or in social-scientific terms, but rather as a series of figures produced by the development of the text.

Through rigorous critical studies of major works of post-1945 and contemporary culture, this book traces transformations in art and critical theory in the aftermath of Auschwitz and Hiroshima. Ray argues that globalization cannot be separated from the collective tasks of working through historical genocide.

Gender, Skill and Identity from 1700 Deborah Simonton, University of Southern Denmark. A new and major contribution to the field, Women in European Culture and Society is a transnational history of women in Europe from the beginning of the eighteenth century that pushes women’s history beyond national studies to create an integrated view of three hundred years of women in Europe. Using a longue durée, the book disentangles the accounts of industrialisation and bourgeois femininity which tend to dominate women’s studies, and questions the dominant narratives of history. $59.95 Pb, ISBN 9780415213080, NZRP$74.00 Publish February 2011, 432 pages Routledge History & Philosophy Quantity

The Soul Hypothesis

Work and Struggle

Investigations into the Existence of the Soul

Voices from US Labor Radicalism

Mark C. Baker, Rutgers University, USA, and Stewart Goetz, Ursinus College, Collegeville, USA.

Paul Le Blanc, La Roche College, Pittsburgh, USA.

What do we mean when we speak about the soul? What are the arguments for the existence of the soul as distinct from the physical body? Do animals have souls? What is the difference between the mind and the soul? The Soul Hypothesis brings together experts from philosophy, linguistics and science to discuss the validity of these questions in the modern world. They contend that there is an aspect of the nature of human beings that is not reducible to the matter that makes up our bodies. The Soul Hypothesis presents views from a range of sciences and the resulting big picture shows that there is room for a soul hypothesis. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9781441152244, NZRP$39.00 Publish February 2011, 304 pages Continuum Quantity History & Philosophy

In this concise and readable book Stephen Kinzer takes the reader on a tour of modern Middle Eastern history, highlighting the errors, alliances and betrayals all acted out for what was shortsightedly seen as being in the interest of Western states. His insight and historical knowledge culminate in the startling conclusion that the US has allied with the wrong Middle Eastern states.

John Celock is an award-winning journalist.

This book is the first major study of the anti-war movement after the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Brimming with empirical material that comes from two years of fieldwork and capturing the passions of its subjects, it addresses post-9/11 circumstances, the character of Information War that promotes ‘symbolic struggles’, the changed information environment of war.

The Case Against Voting Reform

The Political Economy of NGOs

Why the AV System Would Damage Britain

State Formation in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh

James Forder is Fellow and Tutor in Economics, Balliol College, Oxford University.

Jude L. Fernando, Clark University. Jude L. Fernando explores the paradoxical relationship between NGOs and capitalism, showing that supposedly progressive organisations often promote essentially the same policies and ideas as existing governments. The book examines how a diverse group of NGOs have shaped state formation in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. It argues that, rather than influencing state formation for the better, NGOs have been integrated into the capitalist system and their language adopted to give traditional exploitative social relations a transformative appearance. $52.00 Pb, ISBN 9780745321714, NZRP$64.00 Publish February 2011, 352 pages Pluto Current Affairs & Politics

On the 5th May 2011, 39 million people will vote on an issue that could change British politics forever. The Case Against Voting Reform will show just how much is at stake. It explains the different voting systems and how they work, and why proportional representation isn't really fair. It shows why coalitions are bad for British democracy and why the AV system isn't even proportional.

Nikolaos van Dam.

This diverse collection of essays is the first to specifically engage Michel Foucault on questions of politics, security and war. It is also the first to take up the provocations found in Michel Foucault’s recently published Collège de France lectures. The contributors reassess the way Foucault worked experimentally and in collaboration and dialogue with others. In so doing, the essays pursue lines of enquiry that Foucault briefly extolled but did not exhaust, and take him in directions that he could not have foreseen, including the War on Terror, risk, biosecurity and biopolitics, AIDS, racial and ethnic conflict, and the critique of law. $47.00 Pb, ISBN 9780230285378, NZRP$57.00 Publish February 2011, 256 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

Providing an in-depth analysis of the role of sectarian, regional and tribal loyalties in contemporary Syrian history, the author focuses attention on developments within the military and civilian power elite and the Ba’th Party organization. $39.00 Pb, ISBN 9781848857605, NZRP$48.00 Publish February 2011, 288 pages I.B.Tauris Publishers Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

Just and Unjust Interventions in World Politics

The Unilateralist Temptation in American Foreign Policy

Public and Private

David Skidmore, Drake University.

Catherine Lu, McGill University, Montreal, Canada.

Skidmore traces U.S. unilateralism to the structural effects of the end of the Cold War, both domestically and abroad, to argue that the United States was more hegemonic than multilateralist - a rule-maker, not a rule-taker. This book demonstrates that American unilateralism has deeper roots and more resilience than many expect. The unilateral temptation can only be overcome through new political bargains domestically and internationally that permit multilateral engagement, even the absence of great power rivalry. $67.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415885409, NZRP$74.00 Publish February 2011, 168 pages Routledge Current Affairs & Politics

Tapping insights and controversies from feminist political theory, Lu argues that debates between realists, communitarians, and cosmopolitans about the ethics of intervention in world politics are disciplined by competing models of the public/ private distinction. A focus on this construct illuminates alternative images of ‘sovereignty as privacy‘ and ‘sovereignty as responsibility’, and identifies new ethical challenges arising from the increased agency of private global civil society actors, and their uneasy relationship with the world of states in contexts of ‘humanitarian intervention’. $49.95 Pb, ISBN 9780230285651, NZRP$64.00 Publish February 2011, 224 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Current Affairs & Politics

Freya Stark was witness to the rise and fall of the British involvement in the country as well as the early years of independence. In the 1940s she returned again, this time travelling south, to the Marsh Arabs, whose way of life has now all but disappeared; north into Kurdistan and later, Kuwait, in the days before the oil boom.

Sir Walter Raleigh

The Southern Gates of Arabia

In Life and Legend

A Journey in the Hadhramaut

Mark Nicholls, St John’s College, Cambridge.

Freya Stark (1893-1993) was the first western woman to travel through the Hadhramaut.

Sir Walter Raleigh is a figure writ large in popular imagination. We now possess reliable versions of his poems, his letters and his travel narratives. No biography of Raleigh, however, can be complete without an assessment of his posthumous reputation. Myths that accumulated around him tell us something about the man himself, but far more about the perceptions of his own and subsequent generations. Raleigh’s talents as a writer ensured his positive legacy, but the appropriation of his legend for so many differing political uses has left us with a complex picture. In this original and important new biography Williams and Nicholls set this right. $59.95 Hb, ISBN 9781441112095, NZRP$79.95 Publish February 2011, 400 pages Continuum Quantity Biography

Stark set out to be the first westerner to discover the fabled lost city of Shabwa, which had captivated explorers and travellers for centuries. Though she journeyed through the canyons and mountains of the Hadhramaut extensively and by any means possible, Stark’s goal was never reached, but the ending to her story was nevertheless - and in characteristic fashion - dramatic. Though Shabwa remained elusive, Freya Stark’s remarkable journey ensured that her name would forever be associated with Arabia and her travels hailed as intrepid and adventurous as any undertaken by other great explorers of Arabia. $24.95 Pb, ISBN 9781848853157, NZRP$39.00 Publish February 2011, 288 pages Tauris Parke Paperbacks Quantity Travel

Philip Wilson Publishers Philip Wilson Publishers For forty years Philip Wilson Publishers (PWP) has specialised in producing authoritative, finely designed art and illustrated books. Starting life as Sotheby’s Publications, the publishing arm of the famous auction house, it became independent in 1977 as PWP. With over seven hundred works to its credit, the company still concentrates on its original specialisation: catalogues raisonnés, monographs, private collection and exhibition catalogues, and museum guides. The complete catalogues raisonnés cover artists such as Kandinsky, Nolde, Marc and Munch, and the monographs range from Antique Medical Instruments (published in six languages), through Andrea Riccio: Renaissance Master of Bronze and the standard work on Sorolla, the subject of a recent major exhibition at the Prado, to Brian Sewell’s new book on Richard Harrison, one of PWP’s expanding series on contemporary artists.

New Publication: A.J. Munnings An Appreciation of the Artist and a Selection of His Paintings Stanley Booth helped Lady Munnings to open Castle House to the public and set up the trusts which administer the Sir Alfred Munnings Museum, of which he is a trustee. Sir Alfred Munnings was a major figure in the great tradition of British horse painters. Famously prolific, controversial and immensely successful, the son of an East Anglian Miliner, he rose to become a popular scourge of modern art as President of the Royal Academy, Munnings was one of the great English characters of the last century. This is a unique appreciation of a highly collectible artist’s work. $38.00 Pb, ISBN 9780856676956, NZRP$48.00 Publish February 2011, 68 pages Philip Wilson Publishers Quantity Art 9 780856 676956

Macmillan Art Publishing Elgee Park

Sculpture in the Landscape, Second Edition Ken Scarlett with an introduction by Rupert Myer and photographs by Mark Chew. Elgee Park, located at Merricks North on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, is renowned for its Quarter Horse Stud and the historic Elgee Park Winery. The five hectares of special varieties probably represent the earliest surviving vineyard in this distinctive wine-growing area. However, over the past 30 years, Baillieu Myer and his family have added yet another dimension to the property by collection more than forty large-scale outdoor works by sculptors such as Clement Meadmore, Ron Robertson-Swann, Robert Klippel, Inge King, Lenton Parr, Geoffrey Bartlett, Bruce Armstrong, David Wilson and many others. Author Ken Scarlett has arranged the sculptures in this book according to where they are located if undertaking a series of separate walks around the farm. The sculptures, their landscape settings, daily activities and the beautiful gardens of Elgee Park are the subjects of Mark Chew’s dramatic photographs taken over all four seasons of the year. This expanded second edition includes an updated text and all the sculptures commissioned since the first edition published in 2004. $99.00 Pb, ISBN 9781921394454, NZRP$101.00 208 pages, colour throughout Publish November 2010

Mini Book #9

Andrew Gaynor and Jenny Zimmer.

Jenny Zimmer and Ken McGregor.

Anne Marie Graham’s lengthy career encompasses many more themes than the lush tropical landscapes featured in this mini-book. She has brought her unique style to scenes from Melbourne Royal Botanic Gardens and the arid inland as well as the streets and markets of France and Italy. Often they include figures, sometimes miniscule in relation to their surrounds but comfortable within their colourful environment. Graham says: “I use colour as a major vehicle for mood.” In this mini-book we are treated to the moods of tropical North Queensland which Graham has visited many times over the last decades.

Macmillan has already published two editions of Criss Canning’s desirable book, The Pursuit of Beauty, authored by David Thomas, and is planning a third edition to showcase her beautiful canvases in which botanical art and still-life painting come together in a completely unique way. This mini-book focuses on Canning’s studies of her studio, with its extraordinary array of still-life objects, and the artist’s favourite flowers and botanical specimens. Many of the paintings have not been previously reproduced.

Mini Book #6

Ken McGregor and Jenny Zimmer.

Adam Cullen emerged in the 1990s as the enfant terrible of the Sydney art-scene and a foremost exponent of ‘grunge’. Despite descriptions of his work as crude, distasteful and grotesque, and his predilection for ‘low-life’ subject matter, his paintings have been selected for many public collections and in 2000 he won the coveted Archibald Prize with his portrait of actor, David Wenham.

This Macmillan mini-art book features a variety of works by this much favoured senior Australian artist. Drawings, prints and paintings are arranged according to familiar Olsen themes with sections devoted to the landscape, the kitchen and culinary subjects, birds and animals, the life-class with its models and, of course, his famous frogs.

There has been an odd reluctance on the part of historians of the Italian American experience to confront the discrimination faced by Italians and Americans of Italian ancestry. This volume is a bold attempt by an esteemed group of scholars and writers to discuss the question openly by charting the historical and cultural boundaries of stereotypes, prejudice, and assimilation.

Powers of Horror, is the best known work by Kristeva in the Anglo-American world and has had a profound influence in diverse fields. This book provides a timely critical reassessment of Kristeva’s often misunderstood writings on the abject and a crucial appraisal of the value the concept of abjection holds for the study of the witnessing and representation of the Holocaust. Nicholas Chare offers fresh interpretations of the poetry of Paul Celan, the poetic prose of Charlotte Delbo and the paintings of Francis Bacon.

From the coffee producers and pickers who tend the plantations in tropical nations, to the middlemen and processors, to the consumers who drink coffee without ever having to think about how the drink reached their hands, here is a commodity that ties the world together. This book that helps students apply anthropological concepts and theories to their everyday lives, learn how historical events and processes have shaped the modern world and the contexts of their lives, and how consumption decisions carry ramifications for our health, the environment, the reproduction of social inequality, and the possibility of supporting equity, sustainability and social justice. $49.95 Pb, ISBN 9780415800259, NZRP$59.95 Publish February 2011, 176 pages Routledge Quantity Society & Culture

The current crisis in American schools has been more than fifty years in the making. The present assumption that ‘accountability’ equals ‘testing’ and that ‘education’ equals ‘measurable objectives’ has occurred in a brief lifetime. How has this happened? Quantz attempts to answer this question in this fascinating study. It is not a history of the movement, but an exploration of how the nonrational aspects of schooling, especially ritual(s), have been harnessed to construct a commonsense which serves the interests of transnational corporations. $45.00 Pb, ISBN 9780230101166, NZRP$56.00 Publish February 2011, 208 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Society & Culture

Stargazing

Israel and the Jewish Psyche Today

Celebrity, Fame, and Social Interaction

David J Goldberg, Liberal Jewish Synagogue, London.

Kerry O. Ferris, Northern Illinois University, and Scott R. Harris, Saint Louis University.

How should Jews respond to an age of militant Zionism and resurgent anti-Semitism? Is insisting on a separate sense of identity anachronistic and dangerous, or is it the only way of preserving the Jewish cultural heritage? Rabbi David Goldberg, one of today’s most respected and outspoken Jewish leaders in the English-speaking world, here grapples with the dilemmas of contemporary Jewishness with characteristic candour, and sketches the emerging faultlines in the Jewish sense of identity. He offers up a completely fresh reading of Jewish history, arguing that the narrative of relentless woe and suffering was based on a highly selective reading of the past. $33.00 Pb, ISBN 9781848856745, NZRP$42.00 Publish February 2011, 248 pages I.B.Tauris Publishers Quantity Society & Culture

Using compelling, real-life examples involving popular celebrities, Ferris and Harris examine how the experience and meanings of celebrity are shaped by social norms, interactional negotiations, and interpretive storytelling. $54.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415884280, NZRP$59.95 Publish February 2011, 160 pages Routledge Quantity Society & Culture

An enormous number of literary texts engaged with the build-up towards, undertaking of and aftermath of the recent invasion of Iraq. This book both provides a survey of such texts and presents a particular critical perspective on them. Many were regarded as taking a position for or against the invasion, but this study neither attempts to hold authors to account for their political choices nor tries to reach a moral consensus on the invasion. The idea here is to examine how certain literary texts appeared within and ‘spoke’ to a specific socio-political context, not merely to reckon with that context but to understand the condition of contemporary literature generally. $39.95 Pb, ISBN 9780230278776, NZRP$49.95 Publish February 2011, 232 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Society & Culture

A Critical Guide

Stacey Olster, State University of New York, USA.

Andrew Hiscock, Bangor University, UK.

A wide-ranging study of the post-1990 fiction of one of America’s most respected writers and cultural critics, this volume focuses on three of Don DeLillo’s most recent novels that span pivotal moments in recent history: the end of the Cold War, the millennium, and 9/11. Consisting of original essays written by scholars whose interdisciplinary approaches-drawn from art history and religious history, ethnic studies and urban studies, popular culture and political scienceshed new light on DeLillo’s work, it investigates DeLillo’s portrait of turn-of-the-century America as the nation confronts the defining phenomena of globalism and terrorism. $49.95 Pb, ISBN 9780826444103, NZRP$59.95 Publish February 2011, 200 pages Continuum Quantity Literature

The Life in the Sonnets

Learning Chinese, Turning Chinese

David Fuller, University of Durham, UK.

Challenges to Becoming Sinophone in a Globalised World

In this vibrant and controversial book, David Fuller seeks to recover the life in Shakespeare’s sonnets, arguing that feeling and emotion, often ignored in criticism, should be central. He offers two ways of attempting this - first engaging with the poems through kinds of feeling fundamental to the young man sequence as presented in other kinds of writing and art - philosophy (Plato), poetry and visual art (Michelangelo), fiction (Mann), music (Britten), and film (Jarman). He then discusses reading the poems aloud, showing that dwelling in the words without translating them into other terms brings out their beauty and expressivity, and leads to fuller understanding of their form, structure, and meaning. $34.95 Pb, ISBN 9781847064547, NZRP$42.00 Publish February 2011, 144 pages Continuum Quantity Literature

Jeffrey Wainwright is a poet, translator, and critic. Now in its second edition, Poetry: The Basics demystifies the traditions and forms of the world of poetry for all those who find it daunting or bewildering. Covering a wide range of poetic voices from Chaucer to children’s rhymes, song lyrics and the words of contemporary poets, this book will help readers to appreciate poetry by examining technical aspects such as rhythm and measures; different tones of voice in poetry; the relationship between ‘everyday’ and ‘poetic’ language; how different types of poetry are structured; how the form and ‘space’ of a poem contribute to its meaning; some of the ways contemporary poets set to work. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9780415566162, NZRP$39.00 Publish February 2011, 288 pages Routledge Quantity Literature

In this book Edward McDonald takes a fresh look at issues of language in Chinese studies. He takes the viewpoint of the university student of Chinese with the ultimate goal of becoming ‘sinophone’: that is, developing a fluency and facility at operating in Chinese-language contexts comparable to their own mother tongue. While the entry point for most potential sinophones is the Chinese language classroom, the kinds of “language” and “culture” on offer there are rarely questioned, and the links between the forms of the language and the situations in which they may be used are rarely drawn. $59.95 Pb, ISBN 9780415559423, NZRP$74.00 Publish February 2011, 264 pages Routledge Quantity Language

Australian Author

Outlaws, irreverent humorists, political underdogs, authoritarians - and the silhouette, throughout, of a contemporary Australian woman: these are some of the figures who emerge from Philippa Kelly’s extraordinary personal tale, The King and I. Kelly uses Shakespeare’s King Lear as it has never been used before - to tell the story of Australia and Australians through the intimate journey she makes with Shakespeare’s old king, whose struggles and torments are touchstones for the variety, poignancy and humour of Australian life. At the heart of this book is one woman’s personal story, and through this story we come to understand many profound and often hilarious features of the land Down Under. $34.95 Pb, ISBN 9781441111647, NZRP$42.00 Publish February 2011, 128 pages Continuum Quantity Literature

Drawing on more than twenty years of scientific research into positive emotions, world renowned researcher Dr Barbara Fredrickson shows us that attaining positivity is not about striving to be an annoyingly and unnaturally cheerful ‘Pollyanna’. Rather, it is about putting into practice the ‘3-to-1 ratio’ of positive to negative emotions, the crucial tipping point that will enable you to embark on an ‘upward spiral’ towards a healthier, more vibrant, and flourishing life. $24.95 Pb, ISBN 9781851687909, NZRP$29.95 Publish February 2011, 277 pages Oneworld Publications Health & Lifestyle Quantity

While Darwin's theory explains our common descent, scientists have grappled with the reasons why human evolution defies the principles of natural selection and why, although we dominate the planet, we have become the weakest ape. In this fascinating narrative, leading archaeologist Timothy Taylor proposes that it was our early adoption of tools, objects, and, now, technology that changed us. Drawing on the latest fossil evidence, Taylor shows how humans made choices that assumed greater control over their own evolution. $39.95 Hb, ISBN 9780230617636, NZRP$49.95 Published July 2010, 256 pages Palgrave Macmillan Quantity Science & Environment
