ISBN: 9781442645073 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The first treatise ever written on the sociology of cities, On the Causes of the Greatness and Magnificence of Cities (1588) marked a radical departure from previous literature on urban centres. It provided a revolutionary analysis of how cities function, and of the political, economic, demographic and geographic factors that cause their growth and decline. Noteworthy too is Botero's strikingly original use of sources in his analysis: moving beyond familiar classical and biblical references, he drew groundbreaking insights from reports by travelers and missionaries about cities in...

The Crisis of French Sea Power, 1688-1697: From the Guerre d'Escadre to the Guerre de Course
ISBN: 9789024716456 / Angielski / Twarda / 1974 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The French navy that fought in the Nine Years War was essentially Colbert's creation.

Colbert's efforts to build a navy were distinguished by the same stubborn energy that he brought to all his other tasks. Behind his desire for naval might lay his vision of France as the first commercial power in...

A Short History of the French Revolution, 1789-1799
ISBN: 9780520034198 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Albert Soboul has held the Chair of the History of the French Revolution at the Sorbone since 1967, and is probably the leading Marxist scholar working in that field today.

Braudel's new historiography rejected political history as the dominant discipline and espoused a 'total history' or a 'history from below' that would tell the story of the vast majority of humanity hitherto excluded from the...
