› Find signed collectible books: 'British Imperialism: Crisis and Deconstruction, 1914-1990'
This, together with the companion volume, Innovation and Expansion, 1688-1914, provides an ambitious, new and comprehensive interpretation of the forces behind British imperial expansion. The books focus on the interaction of economic, social and political forces on the growth, and (here) the ultimate dissolution, of the Empire. Each volume can be used independently; together, they are a milestone in the history of imperialism, modern Britain and the British Empire itself, and they make an important contribution to comparative history, modern economic development and international relations. Key Features - Follows the fortunes of 'Gentlemanly Capitalism'-the now-widely-accepted concept, first introduced by the authors, that explains the economic dynamics behind Britain's imperial expansion - through the twentieth century into the post-colonial age. Challenges the common view of the period that decolonisation after 1945 was the inevitable outcome of economic decline between the wars. Argues that the gentlemanly order proved remarkably resilient and that when the Empire did fall apart, the forces of 'Gentlemanly Capitalism' in the City of London had simply diverted to other channels, not collapsed. It is aimed at specialists in the area of modern British history, European expansion/imperialism and international relations and the development of the modern world economy. It should also be of interest to serious but non-specialist commentators. [via]

This important collection of Margaret Pelling's essays brings together her key studies of health, medicine and poverty in Tudor and Stuart England - including a number published here for the first time.

With Italy at its centre, but encompassing the whole of Renaissance Europe, this evocative history challenges some of the popularly-held views on the Renaissance period. In particular, whilst always acknowledging the brilliance and exhuberance of Renaissance culture, Robin Kirkpatrick draws equal attention to the strangeness and often unresolved tensions that lay beneath the surface of that culture.Insisting on a European rather than purely Italian viewpoint, he embraces Renaissance thinking and culture in all its diversity: from Northern thinkers such as Cusanus, Luther and Calvin, to the painting of Van der Weyden and El Greco, and the music of the Flemish musicians, Josquin des Prez and Orlando Lassus. Special attention is also paid to the unique contribution made by Margueritte of Navarre to the development of humanist culture. The book concludes with a study of Shakespeare in which his plays are viewed as a searching critique of some of the main principles of Renaissance culture.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Gandhi'
Gandhi's is an extraordinary and compelling story. Few individuals in history have made so great a mark upon their times. And yet Gandhi never held high political office, commanded no armies and was not even a compelling orator. His 'power' therefore makes a particularly fascinating subject for investigation. David Arnold explains how and why the shy student and affluent lawyer became one of the most powerful anti-colonial figures Western empires in Asia ever faced and why he aroused such intense affection, loyalty (and at times much bitter hatred) among Indians and Westerners alike. Attaching as much influence to the idea and image of Gandhi as to the man himself, Arnold sees Gandhi not just as a Hindu saint but as a colonial subject, whose attitudes and experiences expressed much that was common to countless others in India and elsewhere who sought to grapple with the overwhelming power and cultural authority of the West.
A vivid and highly readable introducation to Gandhi's life and times, Arnold's book opens up fascinating insights into one of the twentieth century's most remarkable men.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Great War, 1914-1918'
The Great War scarred both the people and the popular imagination of Europe. No previous war matched it in scale, brutality and futility. The course of events has been told many times, spurred by an endless desire to understand 'the war to end all wars'. However this impressive book moves beyond military narrative to offer a much fuller analysis of the conflict's impact: strategic, political, social and cultural. Starting with the context and origins of the war, including assassination, misunderstanding and differing national war-aims, it then covers the treacherous course of the conflict and its social consequences: #Mobilisation had a massive impact both on soldiers and female civilians, producing radical changes to people's way of life which stimulated political change #Science and technology created a new brand of industrialised warfare and were accelerated by the imperative of victory # The insecurity and strain of war created dissidence and mutiny, engendering revolution in Germany, Austria-Hungary and Russia. The war left a long-term legacy for victors and vanquished alike. It created new frontiers and changed the balance of power, influenced the arts, national memory and political thought. The reach of this account is global, showing how a conflict amongst European powers came to involve their colonial empires, and embrace Japan, China, the Ottoman Empire, Latin America and the United States. This is a bold and original book, offering a thematic study of a war that was famously, and quite rightly, labelled as 'the seminal event of the twentieth century'. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Ideology'
This collection of readings on the concept of ideology is brought together by the Marxist critic, Terry Eagleton. His introduction traces the historical evolution of ideology and examines in a more theoretical style the various meanings of the word and their significance. The readings begin with the first English translations of some of the writing of the French founder of the concept in the eighteenth century. They then move from the enlightenment to Hegel and Marxism, with particular emphasis on Marx and Engels themselves. They also look at other eighteenth-century traditions of thought such as Nietzche and Freud. All the readings are theoretical rather than examples of 'ideology at work' and will be of interest to undergraduate students of cultural, political and historical studies concerned with ideology, as well as students of English literature.

Paradise Lost is the greatest work by one of the greatest poets in English literature and here, finally, is the long awaited Second Edition of Alastair Fowler's annotated edition, originally published in 1968, which has become the most authoritative guide to this great work and to the critical analysis that it has prompted. This important new edition is based on the First Edition of Paradise Lost (1667) which is now widely accepted as being closer to Milton's intention and is more accurate than the 1664 edition. However, Fowler maintains the detailed annotation that has for many years provided an interesting and comprehensive explanation to this difficult but compelling poem. [via]
