Chinese Whispers - Professor Yunte Huang

Chinese Whispers examines multiple contact zones between the Anglophone and Sinophone worlds, investigating how poetry both enables and complicates the transpacific production of meaning.  In this new book, the noted critic and best-selling author Yunte Huang explores the dynamics of poetry and poetics in the age of globalization, particularly questions of translatability, universality, and risk in the transpacific context. “Chinese whispers” refers to an American children’s game dating to the years of the Cold War, a period in which everything Chinese, or even Chinese sounding, was suspect. Taking up various manifestations of the phrase in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Huang investigates how poetry, always to a significant degree untranslatable, complicates the transpacific production of meanings and values. The book opens with the efforts of I. A. Richards, arguably the founder of Anglo-American academic literary criticism, to promote Basic English in China in the early twentieth century. It culminates by resituating Ernest Fenollosa’s famous essay “The Chinese Written Character as a Medium for Poetry,” exploring the ways in which Chinese has historically enriched but also entrapped the Western conception of language.

The most thrilling, genre-busting, unlikely science book you’ll ever read, from the world-renowned, multi-award-winning, superstar physicist Lisa Randal.66 million years ago, a ten-mile-wide object from outer space hurtled into the Earth at incredible speed. The impact annihilated the dinosaurs, along with three-quarters of the other species on the planet. But what if this catastrophe was the sign of something greater: an opening vista onto the interconnectedness of the universe itself? This is the story of the astounding forces that underpin our existence; a horizon-expanding tour of the cosmos that unifies what we know about the universe with new thinking. From the far-flung reaches of space, the makeup of the universe and our solar system''s place within it, to the mysterious and elusive stuff of dark matter and how it affects life here on Earth.‘A fascinating, and surprisingly simple, theory…and a tantalising premise’ The Times‘Extremely engaging’ BBC Focus

Jane Austen and Other Minds - Eric Reid Lindstrom

Jane Austen''s fiction is itself philosophy, a fact to which Stanley Cavell attested when he honored his philosophical teacher, J. L. Austin, through homage to her and her work. Engaging equally in criticism and in philosophy, Jane Austen and Other Minds demonstrates the standing of Austen''s fiction as a philosophical investigation, both in its own right and as a resource to ordinary language philosophy in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Eric Reid Lindstrom addresses a long-standing shortcoming of Austen scholarship by locating in her fiction a linguistic phenomenology available to the novelistic everyday but not afforded her in intellectual history. He simultaneously advances recognition and understanding of J. L. Austin and Stanley Cavell, and of ordinary language philosophy, within Austen scholarship and the broader field of contemporary literary studies. This book argues compellingly for Cavell''s choice of Austen as a means to pursue ''passionate exchange,'' reimagining her common association with restriction and confinement.

Dinosaurs - Steve Brusatte, Michael Benton, Quercus

Just mutter the word ''dinosaur'' and you immediately conjure up images of a lost world, a fantastic but scary past when the earth was ruled by giant reptilians.Dinosaurs are more popular today than ever before. Hardly a week goes by without word of an exciting new discovery in the badlands of countries like Argentina or China. New movies, documentaries and television shows focusing on these ''terrible lizards'' attract wide audiences. Some palaeontologists have even become minor celebrities. But despite the ''rock star'' attention that they receive, dinosaurs are not merely a trumped-up media creation. These animals were some of the most important, diverse and dominating creatures ever to inhabit the earth.From the fearsome Tyrannosaurus and its carnivorous kin to the staggeringly huge sauropods Brachiosaurus and Diplodocus, Steve Brusatte''s expert text comprehensively describes each species-where they lived, what they looked like, what they ate, how they lived, fought and died-to provide a spectacular overview of one of the greatest stories ever told: the origin, evolution, and demise of the dinosaurs. With over 170 computer-generated reconstructions based on the latest cutting-edge research and technology, Dinosaurs looks at these amazing animals in stunning detail like never before.
