Paperback. Condizione: Good. The author focuses on the current attitudes to art, architecture and design manifested in what has come to be called the post-modern era. In the 1980s the art of previous avant-gardes which both celebrated technological advance and challenged the material values of capitalist society has been embraced into museums and the traditional hierarchy of values in modern art has apparently been eradicated. What Hewison sets out to present is an indication of ways in which contemporary artists in various media are seeking to offer a challenege to official values and now they may contribute to a critical culture for the nineties, in place of the philosophiocal stagnation of the current decade. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The case of Laura Spence - turned down for a place at Oxford in 1999 despite stellar qualifications on paper - rocketed higher education to the top of the political agenda, as politicians (notably Gordon Brown) queued up to rail against the elitism that her treatment seemed to represent. But universities have always been a major political issue, with expansion in the 1960s and then the upgrading of the polytechnics in the 1990s posing the big questions: what are universities for, how should they and their students be funded, how should they be controlled, and how should the universities as seats of learning relate to central government? In Uni Robert Stevens - himself a highly distinguished academic at such flagship universities as Oxford and Yale - provides the first history of the politics of higher education in the second half of the twentieth century. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The original Social Justice Report was commissioned by John Smith, the leader of the Labour Party, in 1992. The subsequent book, published by IPPR the in 1994, offered a devastating analysis of Major's Britain, but also a powerful vision for national renewal. It has become arguably the most influential policy document of modern times. Ten years on, the authors of this book revisit the argument for social justice: restating the case with renewed passion and conviction. They offer fresh policies for the continued fight against poverty and inequality, and respond to new challenges like globalisation, migration and the Human Rights Act. The resulting book, no less challenging and radical than its predecessor, is a rallying cry for a fairer Britain that will be impossible for politicians to ignore. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Ambitious, sensuous, filled with intriguing characters, panoramic settings, and high drama, Red Poppies opens a window on Tibet, dispelling many of the popular myths of a pacifistic society peopled by devout worshipers. Red Poppies is the story of the wealthy Maiqi family: its powerful chieftain, his Han Chinese wife, his first son and heir, and his second, 'idiot' son, the novel's narrator and unlikely hero. The time is the 1930s, the setting a stone fortress overlooking all that the family rules on the arid plains of inner Tibet, with its scattered populace of peasant farmers, merchants, and comical local lamas. A feud breaks out with a neighboring chieftain; an emissary of the Chinese Nationalists comes to the Maiqis' aid with the tools of modern warfare. In exchange, fields of poppies, valuable in the Nationalist-backed heroin trade, are to be planted instead of grain in a deal that enriches the Maiqis' lavish lifestyle and earns them dangerous enmity. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The Algeria Hotel in Vichy was the site of the Gestapo Headquarters in World War 2: an emblem of the French cohabitation with the worst excess of Nazism. But it's hard in modern France to find anyone who acknowledges being anything but a member of the Resistance - a national amnesia is in place, only now beginning to be questioned. When the veil is lifted, deep passions are stirred. Adam Nossiter grew up in a France desperate to believe in its innocence; in THE ALGERIA HOTEL he visits three towns where the past hangs heavy and finds a layer of unease and disturbance. In Bordeaux, he follows the trial of Maurice Papon, functionary and war criminal, seeking 'those who might have reason for not remembering'; there are many, self-serving, dismissive, forgetful. In Vichy, capital of occupied France, every building and corner is full of association in spite of all attempts to block it. And in Tulle, still haunted by the events of June 8, 1944, when German soldiers hanged 99 men and sent another 101 to concentration camps in retaliation for a Resistance action', the past hangs over the town like a pall that cannot be lifted. Through the prisms of place and people, present and past, Nossiter's book is searching study of the ghosts of modern France - from collaboration to collusion to compromise - and a resonant story about how we remember and why we forget. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Unravelling the tangled relationship between Crown and State; Constitutional role of the monarchy a political hotter potato than everin wake of Charles/Camilla engagement; ONLY book on the subject to take into take into account that dangerous liaison; Only book to examine the key issues in accessible manner, for the general reader Author a leading expert in the field The announcement that the Prince of Wales was to marry his long-time inamorata Mrs Camilla Parker Bowles opened a can of constitutional worms. What would the bride's status be after the wedding? Would she - could she? - become queen when he succeeded to the throne? Should he succeed at all? Wouldn't it be better for all of us if the pair went off and lived quietly on a small island off Tasmania? Most pressing of all, would the marriage be legal anyway? The open can spewed forth not just the worms themselves, but a deep fog of arcane arguments about the Act of Settlement, how far the Marriage Act 1836 was amended by the Marriage Act 1949, what was the validity of the law of primogeniture, etc. etc. etc. Into this fog Robert Blackburn shines a firm shaft of light which will illuminate the issues involved more accessibly than ever before, and suggests a prescription for dragging the monarchy into the modern age.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. When Tony Blair and New Labour fought the General Election of 1997, the Tories were easy prey. The cry of 18 years' misrule was deafening and sleaze all-pervading. The electorate took to Tony in a big way - here was a man who meant what he said and said what he meant. His reward was an overwhelming victory followed by another in 2001. Cabinet Pudding is a tasty mix of what happened next with a bit of crystal ball-gazing to determine where the Third Way (or la route troisieme as Jacques Chirac puts it) will lead us all.

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. What happens when the old elite distinctions - distinctions of caste as much as of taste - between highbrow and lowbrow no longer apply? When artists show at K-Mart, museums are filled with TV screens, and the brand on a shirt is more important than its cut? Welcome to the world of Nobrow: the ground zero where marketing and culture converge. Here the old lines of taste and class collapse: good equals hot, excellent means entertaining, and celebrity defines quality. It's a world where the product may be trash but the marketing can be art and no-one, not even the people who created both, can really tell the difference. Hip, provocative and superbly entertaining, Nobrow is an autobiographical journey through a tectonic shift in American cultural life by one of that country's sharpest observers. From the arrival of Tina Brown at the New Yorker - both emblem and engine of the change Seabrook describes - through the worlds of fashion and art, music and film, writing and commerce, Nobrow offers, like McLuhan's Understanding Media or Neil Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death, an essential roadmap to the universe we all now inhabit. A readable copy of the book which may include some defects such as highlighting and notes. Cover and pages may be creased and show discolouration.
