ISBN: 9781419619908 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) A few years ago the comedian Bill Cosby addressed an issue which has long been discussed within the African American community: the responsibility of certain blacks to not behave like stereotypes. Cosby's outspokenness made public a topic that had mostly been a private one, and the discourse that followed was observed in newspapers and magazines, on radio and television: these featured the thoughts of many who argued for or against Cosby's statement, and their vehemence-their need to confirm or counter his view-leads us to Bryan Gibson's first novel, "Karma Incarnate: The Best of...

An Analysis of Albert Hourani's A History of the Arab Peoples
ISBN: 9781912127696 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Few works of history make as well-structured a case for the importance of studying continuity, rather than change, than Albert Hourani's A History of the Arab Peoples. Hourani's work had three major aims: to refute the idea that Arab society stagnated between 1000 and 1800; to study the period through the lens of diverse Arab, rather than Muslim, history; and to stress intellectual and cultural continuity. All of these intentions were the product of the author's evaluation of a great mass of secondary sources, many of them devoted to arguing for ideas that contradicted his, and it...

The Legend of St Yves: Law, Justice and Mediation
ISBN: 9781909976061 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 94 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The Legend of Saint Yves is not widely known in Britain, even though he is the patron saint of lawyers (among other things). In this informative account, Bryan Gibson places St Yves - born Erwan Helouri - on a par with Robin Hood, Jessie James and Ned Kelly in terms of their appeal to various national psyches - and up there alongside Joan of Arc and Bernadette of Lourdes as regards his native France. But whilst conventional outlaws used bows, arrows, six-guns and bullets to 'rob the rich to help the poor', St Yves challenged the poverty and social inequality which he saw as the root of many a...

An Analysis of Odd Arne Westad's The Global Cold War: Third World Interventions and the Making of our Times
ISBN: 9781912128570 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For those who lived through the Cold War period, and for many of the historians who study it, it seemed self-evident that the critical incidents that determined its course took place in the northern hemisphere, specifically in the face-off between NATO and the Warsaw Pact in Europe. In this view, the Berlin Wall mattered more than the Ho Chi Minh Trail, and the Soviet intervention in Hungary was vastly more significant than Soviet intervention in Korea. It was only the fine balance of power in the northern theatre that redirected the attentions of the USA and the USSR elsewhere, and...

The Iran-Iraq War lasted from September 1980 to August 1988, dominating the landscape of the Middle East and polarizing many of the world's nations for nearly a decade.

An Analysis of Hamid Dabashi's Iran: A People Interrupted
ISBN: 9781912128402 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Hamid Dabashi's 2007 Iran: A People Interrupted is simultaneously subtle, passionate, polarizing and polemical. A concise account of Iranian history from the early 19th-century onward, Dabashi's book uses his incisive analytical skills as a basis for creating a persuasive argument against the views of Iran that predominate in the West. In Dabashi's view, Western approaches to Iran have been colored time and time again by the assumption that it is somehow trapped between regressive 'tradition,' and progressive 'modernity.' The reality, he argues, is quite the opposite: Iran has its own...

Sold Out? Us Foreign Policy, Iraq, the Kurds, and the Cold War
ISBN: 9781137487117 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 257 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book analyzes the ways in which US policy toward Iraq was dictated by America's broader Cold War strategy between 1958 and 1975. While most historians have focused on "hot" Cold War conflicts such as Cuba, Vietnam, and Afghanistan, few have recognized Iraq's significance as a Cold War battleground. This book argues that US decisions and actions were designed to deny the Soviet Union influence over Iraq and to create a strategic base in the oil-rich Gulf region. Using newly available primary sources and interviews, this book reveals new details on America's decision-making toward and...
