Brilliant and disturbing.”—Salley Vickers, a Guardian Best Book of the Year  “I know of no better exposition of the current state of functional brain neuroscience.”—W. F. Bynum, Times Literary Supplement  Why is the brain divided? The difference between right and left hemispheres has been puzzled over for centuries. Drawing upon a vast body of brain research, the renowned psychiatrist, author, and thinker Iain McGilchrist reveals that the difference between the two sides is profound—two whole, coherent, but incompatible ways of experiencing the world. The detail-oriented left hemisphere prefers mechanisms to living things and is inclined to self-interest, while the right hemisphere has greater breadth, flexibility, and generosity.  In the second part of his book, McGilchrist takes the reader on a journey through the history of Western culture, illustrating the tension between these two worlds as revealed in the thought ...

A classic collection of essay by Jacques Ranciere, that focuses on the ways in which radical philosophers understand the people they profess to speak for. The Intellectual and His People engages in an incisive and original way with current political and cultural issues, including the "discovery" of totalitarianism by the "new philosophers," the relationship of Sartre and Foucault to popular struggles, nostalgia for the ebbing world of the factory, the slippage of the artistic avant-garde into defending corporate privilege, and the ambiguous sociological critique of Pierre Bourdieu. As ever, Rancière challenges all patterns of thought in which one-time radicalism has become empty convention.

The 1968 Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia brought an end to the Prague Spring and its promise of socialism with a human face. Before the invasion, Czech reformers had made unexpected use of television to advance political and social change. In its aftermath, Communist Party leaders employed the medium to achieve normalization, pitching television stars against political dissidents in a televised spectacle that defined the times. The Greengrocer and His TV offers a new cultural history of communism from the Prague Spring to the Velvet Revolution that reveals how state-endorsed ideologies were played out on television, particularly through soap opera-like serials. In focusing on the small screen, Paulina Bren looks to the normal of normalization, to the everyday experience of late communism.

What does the future hold for humanity in these uncertain times? While living in a battered, conflicted, and unstable global reality, it seems difficult to imagine a less embroiled reality.Reflections on Conflict Resolution offers hope that there might be ways to resolve, or at least mitigate, even complex, violent, and protracted conflicts between communities and nations. This volume presents the state of the art in a decade-long analysis of conflict resolution in the Middle East and beyond.The 15 articles by the author and his co-authors contain policy ideas, dilemmas, research, and analysis: dealing with social media and peacemaking as well as with negotiating climate politics; transcending from grappling with Anti-Semitism to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict resolution; and analyzing the negotiations that led to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal as well as Israeli-Arab peacemaking.The book is an essential reading for anyone interested in either conflict resolution, negotiations, peacebuilding, history, politics or the Middle East, be it an academician, a practitioner, a politician, a civil society activist, a student or an insatiable knowledge seeker.

The first three volumes of Gibbon''s DECLINE AND FALL (the western empire) were published by Everyman in 1993. Volumes 4-6 complete the set which is now available for the first time in many years. This year is the bicentenary of Gibbon''s death, which has been widely noticed in the press, but even after two hundred years his book is still an authoritative work on Roman history. What is more, it remains wonderfully readable: witty, elegant and intriguing, full of the author''s own personality. The six-volume Everyman edition - the only complete one now available-prints the entire text of the book with all Gibbon''s own notes, later editorial commentaries, maps, tables, descriptive tables of contents, indices, appendices and two magisterial essays on the author and his work by Hugh Trevor-Roper.
