› Find signed collectible books: 'After the Nation-State: Citizens, Tribalism, and the New World Disorder'Book summary:Traces the genesis of the nation-state, its rise as a form of organization and its expansion from Europe to the new nations of America, Asia and Africa. The authors argue that the nation-state has now reached a point of crisis as a form of political, economic and social organization with the result that the world is likely to experience a period of growing tensions and instability. No longer will states be able to operate outside the dictates of the global economy whilst a limited control will be retained over more local issues, in other areas authority will have to be forfeited. Consequently, impulses of nationalism and tribalism will find themselves in competition which is bound to affect the relationship of citizens to states, and hence the character of nationalism itself. Drawing on historical, economic and political analysis of the nation-state and its enemies, the authors argue that the time has come for a reappraisal of the nation-state's role. This book concludes that the 21st century will be about running capitalism and managing tribalism as the tension between the two will be the hallmark of international politics in the decades to come.

Big Bang: The Origin Of The Universeby Simon SinghISBN 0007162219 (0-00-716221-9)
Softcover, Harpercollins

› Find signed collectible books: 'Big Bang: The Origin of the Universe'Book summary:A baffling array of science books claim to reveal how the mysteries of the universe have been discovered, but Simon Singh's Big Bang actually delivers on that promise. General readers will find it to be among the very best books dealing with cosmology, because Singh follows the same plan he used in his brilliant Code Book: he puts people--not equations--first in the story. By linking the progression of the Big Bang theory with the scientists who built it up bit by bit, Singh also uncovers an important truth about how such ideas grow.
Death is an essential element in the progress of science, since it takes care of conservative scientists of a previous generation reluctant to let go of an old, fallacious theory and embrace a new and accurate one.
As harsh as this statement seems, even Einstein defended an outmoded idea about the universe when an unknown interloper published equations challenging the great man. Einstein didn't have to die for cosmology to move forward (he reluctantly apologized for being wrong), but stories like this one show how difficult it can sometimes be for new theories to take root. Fred Hoyle, who coined the term "big bang" as a way to ridicule the idea of a universe expanding from some tiny origin point, strongly believed that the cosmos was in a steady state. But Singh shows how Hoyle's research, meant to prove the contrary, added evidence to the expansion model. Big Bang is also a history of astronomical observation, describing the development of new telescopes that were crucial to the development of cosmology. Handwritten summary notes at the end of each long chapter add a charming, classroom feel to this revealing and very readable book. --Therese Littleton [via]More editions of Big Bang: The Origin Of The Universe:
