Description:
Penguin, 2009 About the book: Terror and Consent argues that, like so many states and civilizations in the past that suffered defeat, we are fighting the last war, with weapons and concepts that were useful to us then but have now been superseded. Philip Bobbitt argues that we need to reforge links that previous societies have made between law and strategy; to realize how the evolution of modern states has now produced a globally networked terrorism that will change as fast as we can identify it; to combine humanitarian interests with strategies of intervention; and, above all, to rethink what 'victory' in such a war, if it is a war, might look like..

Description:
Profile Books, 2009 About the book: Thinking About Almost Everything brings together original thinking on a staggering range of topics across the sciences, arts and humanities, grouped into nine imaginative and sometimes startling thematic categories. Entries on terror, the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and climate change are juxtaposed in the '(Un)settlement' section, while 'Presences' brings together plant genetics, race, humans and animals, music theology, and the Willmore Conjecture. The short (often just one-page) essays are written in a lively and accessible style, and the book is illustrated with original and challenging images. Thinking About Almost Everything shows how even the most intricate and complex knowledge can enliven public curiosity and spark new thinking on issues either known or yet to be discovered..

Description:
The British Library Publishing Division, 2011 These books are in perfect condition, see photos. About the book: In 1767, the trade engraver Ralph Beilby of Newcastle upon Tyne took as his first apprentice a raw country lad with a passion for 'figuring' or drawing. This was the fourteen-year-old Thomas Bewick who in time was to gain national and international renown as the finest wood engraver in the kingdom. However, Bewick's celebrated histories of quadrupeds and birds of 1790, 1797 and 1804 have obscured the immense number of other books of all denominations illustrated in this modest workshop. From its inception in 1765 until its demise in 1849, the workshop provided illustrations to books, pamphlets, periodicals and newspapers. The range of illustrations encompassed natural histories, children's story-books, cookery books, religious tracts, spelling books, mathematical treatises, Bibles, agricultural manuals, local town and county histories, joke and riddle books and even a book of…

Description:
Phoenix, 2001 About the book: The Holy Grail of modern physics is the search for a 'quantum gravity' view of the universe that unites Einstein's general relativity with quantum theory. Until recently, these two foundational pillars of modern science have seemed incompatible: relativity deals exclusively with the universe at the large scale (planets, solar systems and galaxies), whereas quantum theory is restricted to the domain of the very small (molecules, atoms, electrons). Here, Lee Smolin provides the first accessible overview of current attempts to reconcile these two theories. Written with wit and style, Three Roads to Quantum Gravity touches on some of the deepest questions about the nature of the universe - are space and time continuous or infinitely divisible? Is there a limit to how small things can be? - while speculating on what developments we can expect at the frontiers of physics in the twenty-first century.. Soft cover. Fine.

Chatto & Windus, 2011 About the book: An epic romantic novel of the Peninsular War from the acclaimed historian, author of Aristocrats. A brilliant debut by a wonderful historian, Tides of War is a sweeping, romantic, panoramic historical novel, set in Regency London and in Spain during the Peninsular War, which shows again the narrative talent of Aristocrats, as well as Tillyards's genius for period, atmosphere, character and description. At its centre stands Harriet, the young, outspoken heroine, on the threshold of adult life. She is newly married, but her soldier husband, James, is about to set off to join Wellington's troops in Spain, accompanied by his friend, a pioneering young doctor, who also falls for Harriet's charms. Left in London, Harriet is taken under the wing of Kitty, Lady Wellington. And while the women plunge into new worlds of politics, finance and science, the men face the bloody reality of the battlefield and the siege of Badajos, testing their endurance to the…
