Lothian: Philip Kerr and the Quest for World Order
ISBN: 9780313321795 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the story of Philip Kerr and a group of Oxford graduates that founded The Round Table (Journal of International Affairs) in 1910 and influenced British foreign policy over the following thirty years. As the principal thinker of the group, Kerr saw the need for a supra-national grouping and wanted to organize the British Empire into a federal superstate. The group also sought an Anglo-American alliance, and in 1939, joined a world federation movement that would help to inspire NATO after the war. Important questions raised by this group remain relevant today. Can...

The Historian's Contribution to Anglo-American Misunderstanding: Report of a Committee on National Bias in Anglo-American History Text Books
ISBN: 9781138194762 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines text books used in English and American schools and determines the way in which national bias has been instilled into school children by the use of history books. This study reveals that the deliberate distortion common a generation ago has disappeared, but has been displaced by a more subtle form of bias that is more dangerous because it is less easily recognised. It deals in particular with the treatment of the American War of Indepdendence, the War of 1812 and World War I. The report contains positive suggestions to authors and publishers designed to eliminate all...

Westward Expansion: A History of the American Frontier
ISBN: 9780826319814 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. When it appeared in 1949, the first edition of Ray Allen Billington's 'Westward Expansion' set a new standard for scholarship in western American history, and the book's reputation among historians, scholars, and students grew through four subsequent editions. This abridgment and revision of Billington and Martin Ridge's fifth edition, with a new introduction and additional scholarship by Ridge, as well as an updated bibliography, focuses on the Trans-Mississippi frontier. Although the text sets out the remarkable story of the American frontier, which became, almost from the beginning, an...

Limericks: Historical and Hysterical
ISBN: 9780393333046 / Angielski / Miękka / 1981 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The limerick, one of the oldest and most challenging of verse forms, has traditionally been the plaything of Oxford dons, American academicians, and a sprinkling of men of wit. Historian Ray Allen Billington worked on his own collection for fifty years. Here is the cream of that collection--original and classical limericks, irreverent, spicy, funny, and, of course, suggestive.

Płonące umysły. Źródła rewolucyjnej wiary
ISBN: 9788360562598 / Polski / Twarda / 2012 / 744 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Celem niniejszej książki jest odkrycie korzeni wiary – wiary naszych czasów. Współcześni rewolucjoniści to ludzie wierzący, nie mniej gorliwi i oddani swej wierze niż dawni chrześcijanie czy muzułmanie. Nowością jest w ich wypadku jedynie przekonanie, że obalenie tradycyjnej władzy przyniesie doskonały świecki porządek.
Ta całkowicie utopijna idea stała się kołem napędowym Europy w XIX stuleciu i najskuteczniej rozprzestrzeniającą się na świecie ideologią Zachodu wieku XX. Nie jest to historia rewolucji, lecz rewolucjonistów: nowatorskich twórców nowej... Celem niniejszej książki jest odkrycie korzeni wiary – wiary naszych czasów.

Robert Maillart: Builder, Designer, and Artist
ISBN: 9780521057424 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This comprehensive biography traces the life and works of Robert Maillart, one of the most important engineers and designers of the twentieth century. His career developed around a central issue of modern technological society: the debate between two antithetical views of engineering opposing applied science, which relied on general mathematical theories for understanding structures against design, which Maillart championed. Maillart considered structures not merely works of utility but also as works of art. As utilitarian objects, he created a series of innovations of lasting significance....
