Politics - Nick Clegg
''Beautifully written'' Rory Stewart ''Compelling'' Ian McEwan ''Engrossing'' Alan Johnson ''Essential'' Robert Peston *THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*Politics has changed. For decades Britain was divided between Left and Right but united in its belief in a two-party state. Now, with nationalism resurgent and mainstream parties in turmoil, stark new divisions define the country and the centre ground is deserted.Nick Clegg witnessed this change from the inside. Here he offers a frank account of his experiences and puts the case for a new politics based on reason and compromise.He writes candidly about the tense stand-offs within government and the decision to enter coalition with the Conservatives in the first place. He also lifts the lid on the arcane worlds of Westminster and Brussels, the vested interests that suffocate reform, as well as the achievements his party made despite them.Whatever your political persuasion, if you wish to understand politics in Britain today you cannot afford to ignore this book.

How to Save the Internet - Nick Clegg
The global, open internet is fragmenting.As democracies seek to rein in the power of Big Tech, as Silicon Valley pivots to an America-first agenda, as authoritarian regimes such as China and Russia segregate their populations from the rest of the internet, the most powerful tool ever created for bringing the world together risks being dismantled.Taking us behind the scenes at Meta and his interactions with world leaders, Nick Clegg, Meta’s former President, Global Affairs, sets out where Big Tech has gone wrong, how Silicon Valley’s insularity has blinded it to its missteps, and the radical reforms of the global platforms that are now needed if they are to secure a long-term future.But he also makes the case that many of the charges against them – including that their algorithms polarise, manipulate and harm – are vastly overstated or simply untrue. And while new laws that regulate these corporations are essential, imposing national borders on the internet cannot be the answer. That will fatally undermine its capacity for knowledge-sharing, collaboration, education, trade, medical and scientific research, and ultimately for the improvement and empowerment of billions of lives.Radical, reasonable, deeply felt and disarmingly honest, How To Save the Internet sets out a ...

Woman's Lore - Sarah Clegg

Extraordinary, meticulous detail'' Literary Review''Deftly fuses scholarly rigour, control of literary and archaeological sources'' BBC History MagazineCreatures like Lilith, the seductive first wife of Adam, and mermaids, who lured sailors to their death, are familiar figures in the genre of monstrous temptresses who use their charms to entice men to their doom.But if we go back 4,000 years, the roots of these demons lie in horrific creatures like Lamashtu, a lion-headed Mesopotamian demon who strangled infants and murdered pregnant women, and Gello, a virgin ghost of ancient Greece who killed expectant mothers and babies out of jealousy. Far from enticing men into danger and destruction, these monsters were part of women’s ritual practices surrounding childbirth and pregnancy. So how did their mythology evolve into one focused on the seduction of men?Sarah Clegg takes us on an absorbing and witty journey from ancient Mesopotamia to the present day, encountering a multitude of serpentine succubi, a child-eating wolf-monster of ancient Greece, the Queen of Sheba and a host of vampires.

Game Theory - Brian Clegg
Brian Clegg was always fascinated by Isaac Asimov’s classic Foundation series of books, in which the future is predicted using sophisticated mathematical modelling of human psychology and behaviour.Only much later did he realise that Asimov’s ‘psychohistory’ had a real-world equivalent: game theory.Originating in the study of probabilistic gambling games that depend on a random source – the throw of a dice or the toss of a coin – game theory soon came to be applied to human interactions: essentially, what was the best strategy to win, whatever you were doing? Its mathematical techniques have been applied, with varying degrees of wisdom, to fields such as economics, evolution, and questions such as how to win a nuclear war.Clegg delves into game theory’s colourful history and significant findings, and shows what we can all learn from this oft-misunderstood field of study.

Messi vs. Ronaldo - Joshua Robinson, Jonathan Clegg
Essential World Cup Reading | Featured in The New York Times’ ‘What to Read During the World Cup’Wall Street Journal reporters Joshua Robinson and Jonathan Clegg offer a deeply reported account of the intertwined sagas and legacies of two of the greatest soccer players of all time—Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo—examining how their rivalry has grown from a personal competition to a multi-billion-dollar industry, paralleling the stunning rise, overwhelming excesses, and uncertain future of modern international soccer. For over fifteen years, almost any conversation about international soccer has always come back to two players—Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo—undoubtedly the greatest of their generation but with styles, attitudes, and fanbases that couldn’t be more different. For millions of people around the world "Messi or Ronaldo?" isn’t simply a barroom argument, or an affirmation of fandom, so much as a statement of philosophy, of values, of what global soccer is today and of what it will be tomorrow.

Japonské mýty - Melanie Clegg
Kniha Japonské mýty jasnou a zábavnou formou odkrývá svět japonských mýtů, legend a příběhů, z nichž mnohé si lidé vyprávějí již po staletí, představuje ale i ty, které vznikly poměrně nedávno a šíří se prostřednictvím moderních médií. Čtenář se tak seznámí například s božskou dvojicí Izanamim a Izanagi a jejich prvními neúspěšnými pokusy o stvoření Japonska či s rozmarnou bohyní Slunce Amaterasu, jež se stala prapředkyní japonského císařského rodu. Nechybí ale ani příběhy o odvážných samurajích, kteří inspirují nejenom současné japonské tvůrce, ale i hollywoodské režiséry, či liškách, které se zjevují v podobě nestárnoucích krasavic, jež ovládají a podvádějí muže. Autorka Melanie Clegg nás zavede i mezi duchy a strašidla moderních městských legend, a seznámí nás se Sněžnou ženou, psem s lidskou tváří, duchem sladkostí či dívkou Hanako-san zjevující se na školních toaletách a mnoha dalšími přízraky, před kterými se musíme mít na pozoru i na rušných ulicích současných japonských velkoměst.

Brainjacking - Brian Clegg
Brainjacking explores the psychology of storytelling - the ability that makes us human. To discover how science intersects with our desires and decisions, the book pulls together three ways that we use story to modify others'' brains: informing, influencing and manipulating. Running through education and politics, advertising and marketing we discover how techniques can range from subtle nudges and subliminal influences to powerful emotional manipulation. With Brian Clegg as your guide, this is a book that will help you unpick the insidious world of brainjacking. Expertly pulling together different strands on disparate topics including AI, Big Data, social media and more, this essential investigation shows how new and old technology and science can be combined to influence human behavior and beliefs.

Biomimetics - Brian Clegg
An exploration of the transformative ways in which nature has inspired the technological advancement of humankind.Biomimetics literally means emulating biology - and in a broader sense the term covers technological advances where the original inspiration came from nature. The Earth is a vast laboratory where the mechanisms of natural selection have enabled evolutionary solutions to be developed to a wide range of problems. In this new title in the Hot Science series, science writer Brian Clegg looks at how humans have piggybacked on natural experimentation, redeploying a solution to create things that make our lives easier. He looks at how the hooks on burdock seeds inspired the creation of Velcro, how the stickiness of the feet of geckos and frogs has been used to create gripping surfaces, such as tyre treads, and how even the most basic optical enhancement in the form of spectacles is itself a form of biomimetics.

Quantum Computing - Brian Clegg
Computer technology has improved exponentially over the last 50 years. But the headroom for bigger and better electronic solutions is running out. Our best hope is to engage the power of quantum physics.‘Quantum algorithms’ had already been written long before hardware was built. These would enable, for example, a quantum computer to exponentially speed up an information search, or to crack the mathematical trick behind internet security. However, making a quantum computer is incredibly difficult. Despite hundreds of laboratories around the world working on them, we are only just seeing them come close to ‘supremacy’ where they can outperform a traditional computer.In this approachable introduction, Brian Clegg explains algorithms and their quantum counterparts, explores the physical building blocks and quantum weirdness necessary to make a quantum computer, and uncovers the capabilities of the current generation of machines.

Gravitational Waves - Brian Clegg
On 14 September 2015, after 50 years of searching, gravitational waves were detected for the first time and astronomy changed for ever.Until then, investigation of the universe had depended on electromagnetic radiation: visible light, radio, X-rays and the rest. But gravitational waves - ripples in the fabric of space and time - are unrelenting, passing through barriers that stop light dead.At the two 4-kilometre long LIGO observatories in the US, scientists developed incredibly sensitive detectors, capable of spotting a movement 100 times smaller than the nucleus of an atom. In 2015 they spotted the ripples produced by two black holes spiralling into each other, setting spacetime quivering.This was the first time black holes had ever been directly detected - and it promises far more for the future of astronomy. Brian Clegg presents a compelling story of human technical endeavour and a new, powerful path to understand the workings of the universe.

The Dead of Winter - Sarah Clegg
A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERA WATERSTONES BOOK OF THE MONTHA BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEKAs winter comes and the hours of darkness overtake the light, we seek out warmth, good food, and good company. But beneath the jollity and bright enchantment of the festive season, there lurks a darker mood - one that has found expression over the centuries in a host of strange and unsettling traditions and lore. Here, Sarah Clegg takes us on a journey through midwinter to explore the lesser-known Christmas traditions, from English mummers plays and Austrian Krampus runs, to modern pagan rituals at Stonehenge and the night in Finland when a young girl is crowned with candles as St Lucy - a martyred Christian girl who also appears as a witch leading a procession of the dead. At wassails and hoodenings and winter gatherings, attended by ghastly, grinning horses, snatching monsters and mysterious visitors, we discover how these traditions originated and how they changed through the centuries, and we ask ourselves: if we can't keep the darkness entirely at bay, might it be fun to let a little in?

The Multiverse - Brian Clegg
The universe was supposed to be all there was - the whole of existence. For centuries the size of the universe and whether or not it is finite fascinated scientists and philosophers. But however big the universe may be, there being only one gave astronomers and cosmologists a headache. Existence as we know it is contingent on so many constants in nature which, if altered only slightly, would make life impossible. This seems so unlikely to happen by chance. What if, instead, there is in fact a vast range of different universes, with many variants of the universal contents, making ours just one of many that happens to be viable for life?In this illuminating exploration, Brian Clegg delves into the endless possibilities of the multiverse. Investigating questions of expanding, parallel and communicating universes, this accessible guide takes the reader into one of the weirdest and most exciting areas of modern physics and cosmology.

Philosophers and mathematicians have gone mad contemplating its nature and complexity - yet it is a concept routinely used by schoolchildren. Exploring the infinite is a journey into paradox. Here is a quantity that turns arithmetic on its head, making it feasible that 1 = 0. Here is a concept that enables us to cram as many extra guests as we like into an already full hotel. Most bizarrely of all, it is quite easy to show that there must be something bigger than infinity - when it surely should be the biggest thing that could possibly be.

Vesmír prošel dramatickou proměnou. A poté, co lord Rahl přeskupil hvězdy, skončilo ve světě živých i samotné proroctví a bylo odesláno přes oponu do podsvětí. Tím se vesmír proměnil neznámým způsobem, s důsledky, které se teprve ukážou. Nicci byla stále kouzelnicí a Nathan zůstal čarodějem, ale všechny složitě propojené nitky jeho prorockého talentu se rozpletly. Celá jedna část jeho bytosti tak byla nadobro odstraněna. S nadšením uvítal, když ho Richard Rahl pověřil úkolem, aby jako velvyslanec nově rozšířené D’Harské říše zjistil, jak pomoci obyvatelům Temného kraje. Zatímco se zdecimovaná armáda D’Hary vracela z krvavých bitev a všichni sčítali ztráty a oplakávali padlé, Nicci přijala důležité poslání. Richard potřeboval poznat celou svou rozlehlou říši, její velké, dosud neprozkoumané oblasti, a to byl úkol pro Nicci – sbírat informace, až bude doprovázet Nathana na cestách. Ve Starém světě, na troskách Císařského řádu v důsledku působení císaře Jaganga a jeho předchůdců, se vlády ujala různorodá směsice vládců.

Alter-Politics - Ghassan Hage
This book is a contribution to a long history of critical writing against an increasingly destructive global order marked by an excessive instrumentalisation, exploitation and degradation of the human and non-human environment, and ridden with unacceptable, but also, importantly, avoidable, forms of inequality, injustice and marginalisation. Alter-Politics is concerned with the way anthropological critical writing in particular aims to weave oppositional concerns (anti-politics) with a search for alternatives (alter-politics): alternative economies, alternative modes of inhabiting and relating to the earth, alternative modes of thinking and experiencing otherness. If Alter-Politics privileges alter-politics over oppositional politics, it is not because, as is made clear, the 'alter' moment is more important than the 'anti'. It is because a concern for alter-politics has been less prevalent. The question of 'political passion' is crucial in this conception of the alter-political. For the book argues that it is because radical political passion has been mostly directed towards anti-politics that it has come to dominate over alter-politics. This does not simply mean that political passion needs to be equally directed towards alter-politics. It also means that this passion itself needs to be a radically different kind of political passion once so directed. It is this 'alter-political passion' ... Unknown localization key: "more"
