This dictionary is the very first to cover the whole span of geopolitics from 1870 to the present. The editor and the contributors, noted specialists, clarify what lies behind the theories and the widespread use and misuse of geopolitical doctrines. The 219 entries are fairly lengthy essays about the major schools, doctrines, strategies, people, controversies, and policies of geopolitics in the main countries practicing geopolitics. These experts provide a complete picture of how geographic thinking has influenced statecraft and world politics. The entries are cross-referenced and...

Divided into three parts, of which the first is by far the longest, this philosophical sequel to 'Between Truth and Illusion' (1977), expands on the dualistic theories therein outlined, abandoning the more literary approach of its predecessor for a paradoxically aphoristic bias in which the author began to develop an almost existentialist awareness of the extent to which many so-called truths are founded upon illusory concepts and, to that extent, are not really 'true' at all but convenient fictions masking the brute reality of natural facts.

Written in the late-Spring of 1982, this novel has something of a Spring-like ebullience about it which takes us to the Norfolk countryside in the East of England and to the stratagems of a radical writer-turned-artist by name of Jason Crilly (who for the most part remains veiled behind first-person narrations) to shake off a depression he contracted while living alone, for several years, in an insalubrious part of north London. His wife Susan, whom he married shortly after moving to Norfolk, is avowedly one of the stratagems in his arsenal in this respect. Also living in Norfolk are a number...

This monumental volume of philosophy, combining maxims with essays and dialogues, goes way beyond the scope of John O'Loughlin's earlier philosophical works in outlining what he contends to be the logical stages of evolution beyond man which will have to be passed through before definitive salvation can be achieved in a transcendent goal of evolution ... analogous to Teilhard de Chardin's 'Omega Point' or even to Bunyan's 'Celestial City'. One could say that he has attempted to concretize Nietzschean notions concerning man's 'overcoming' ... in respect of specific post-human stages of ensuing...
