Description:

Jeśli można powiedzieć, że dla amerykańskich generałów II wojny światowej: Marshalla, Eisenhowera, Pattona i Bradleya historia była łaskawa, przeciwnie obeszła się z generałami wojen późniejszych, takich jak Koster, Franks, Sanchez i Petraeus. W książce The Generals Thomas E. Ricks docieka źródeł tego procesu. Opisując pogłębiającą się przepaść między wynikami a odpowiedzialnością wśród najwyższych rangą oficerów armii USA, Ricks opowiada historie wielkich i podejrzanych przywódców, generałów, którzy stanęli na wysokości zadania i generałów, którzy zawiedli siebie i swoich żołnierzy. W rękach Ricksa historie te nabierają głębszego znaczenia: o przekazywaniu wartości, myśleniu strategicznym i o różnicy między organizacją, która się uczy, a tą, która zawodzi.

Description:

A New York Times Notable Book
The Professor and the Madman is an extraordinary tale of madness, genius, and the incredible obsessions of two remarkable men that led to the making of the Oxford English Dictionary-and literary history.
The making of the OED was one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken. As definitions were collected, the overseeing committee, led by Professor James Murray, was stunned to discover that one man, Dr. W. C. Minor, had submitted more than ten thousand. But their surprise would pale in comparison to what they were about to discover when the committee insisted on honoring him. For Dr. Minor, an American Civil War veteran, was also an inmate at an asylum for the criminally insane.
Masterfully researched and eloquently written, The Professor and the Madman "is the linguistic detective story of the decade." (William Safire, New York Times Magazine)
This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.

Description:

From former SNL “Weekend Update” host and legendary stand-up Colin Quinn comes a controversial and laugh-out-loud investigation into cultural and ethnic stereotypes.

Colin Quinn has noticed a trend during his decades on the road-that Americans’ increasing political correctness and sensitivity have forced us to tiptoe around the subjects of race and ethnicity altogether. Colin wants to know: What are we all so afraid of? Every ethnic group has differences, everyone brings something different to the table, and this diversity should be celebrated, not denied. So why has acknowledging these cultural differences become so taboo?

In The Coloring Book, Colin, a native New Yorker, tackles this issue head-on while taking us on a trip through the insane melting pot of 1970s Brooklyn, the many, many dive bars of 1980s Manhattan, the comedy scene of the 1990s, and post-9/11 America. He mixes his incredibly candid and hilarious personal experiences with no-holds-barred observations to definitively decide, at least in his own mind, which stereotypes are funny, which stereotypes are based on truths, which have become totally distorted over time, and which are actually offensive to each group, and why.

As it pokes holes in the tapestry of fear that has overtaken discussions about race, The Coloring Book serves as an antidote to our paralysis when it comes to laughing at ourselves . . . and others.

Description:

"Of beach plums, ramps, and Ramada Inns: a quietly sensitive eminently sensible consideration of the landscapes of our lives . . . A gift." –Kirkus Reviews
Following her bestselling The Architect of Desire, Suzannah Lessard returns with a remarkable book, a work of relentless curiosity and a graceful mixture of observation and philosophy. This intriguing hybrid will remind some of W. G. Sebald’s work and others of Rebecca Solnit’s, but it is Lessard’s singular talent to combine this profound book-length mosaic- a blend of historical travelogue, reportorial probing, philosophical meditation, and prose poem-into a work of unique genius, as she describes and reimagines our landscapes. In this exploration of our surroundings, The Absent Hand contends that to reimagine landscape is a form of cultural reinvention.
This engrossing work of literary nonfiction is a deep dive into our surroundings-cities, countryside, and sprawl-exploring change in the meaning of place and reimagining the world in a time of transition. Whether it be climate change altering the meaning of nature, or digital communications altering the nature of work, the effects of global enclosure on the meaning of place are panoramic, infiltrative, inescapable. No one will finish this book, this journey, without having their ideas of living and settling in their surroundings profoundly enriched.

Description:

This first English-language volume on Apichatpong Weerasethakul looks at his works from a variety of angles and is extensively illustrated (245 colour photographs). (Engl.)

James Quandt, the editor and author of the analytical career overview which introduces the book, is one of the foremost film critics and curators working in North America today. Further contributors include the cultural and political theorist Benedict Anderson, filmmaker Mark Cousins, art curator Karen Newman, critics Tony Rayns and Kong Rithdee, and the Academy Award winning actress and cinephile Tilda Swinton.

With two interviews, conducted by James Quandt, and his personal essays on film, politics and “ghosts in the darkness", the filmmaker’s own voice is also a strong presence in the book. The Appendix includes a bibliography, compiled by Chris Stults, and a full annotated filmography, compiled by Simon Field and Alexander Horwath.

2010 Golden Palm winner Apichatpong "Joe" Weerasethakul is widely praised as one of the central figures in contemporary cinema. Trained as an architect in Thailand and as a visual artist in Chicago, he has stunned the film world with five innovative and dreamlike features made since the year 2000 – including award-winning films such as Blissfully Yours, Tropical Malady, and Syndromes and a Century. He is also an acclaimed installation artist, exhibiting his work in museums and art spaces all over the world. His film and installation project Primitive was on show at the Haus der Kunst in Munich and was presented at FACT, Liverpool, in the fall of 2009.
