Historical Perspectives on Contemporary East Asia
Manufacturer: Harvard University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0674000986 |
Book Description
Historical Perspectives on Contemporary East Asiaaddresses provocative themes concerning the experience of particular nations and of East Asia as a whole. It explores the turbulent process of integrating Asian societies and political systems into a global order dominated by the West over the past two centuries. The authors show that important changes were already underway before the western advance, which had their own internal logic and staying power. They describe how people in China, Japan, and Korea redefined and defended indigenous "traditions" even as they disagreed over what these traditions were and how to transform them. They make it clear that nationalism was a powerful motivating force in the modern development of these countries, but they stress that a wide variety of nationalisms emerged and collided in the dramatic history of modern Asia.

A Complete Waste of Time: Tales and Tips About Getting More Done
Mark Ellwood Manufacturer: Hushion House ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0968239501 |
Customer Reviews:
Profit from Time.......2000-04-10
In Mark Ellwood's A Complete Waste of Time, the secrets of time management unfold before us with renewed verve. Tips and techniques are intermingled with time trivia and poetic inspiration. This book is for the organization who's employees just can't manage to keep up and don't know where to turn to, or for those of us who need a refresher.
Within the first few pages Mark's delightful tales begin to entertain and amuse. A Complete Waste can be read in one sitting or a chapter at a time. You'll find yourself picking up a pen and jotting down some ideas on time earned from meetings, delegation, networking, and that all too time consuming obligation, travel. A Complete Waste is the source for knowledge when it comes to profit from time.
Getting educated while laughing !.......2000-01-30
As a Professional Organizer, this was the first book I read on the subject of time management. Mark Ellwood's humourous take on the subject made it very easy to learn and understand his techniques and I gained a great deal of insight into the field of time management. This was not only personally beneficial, but it has also helped a great deal in assisting my clients with their time-management struggles.
Thanks Mark !

The Enemy: An Intellectual Portrait of Carl Schmitt
Gopal Balakrishnan Manufacturer: Verso ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 185984359X |
Book Description
The writings of Carl Schmitt form what is arguably the most disconcerting, original, and yet still unfamiliar body of twentieth-century political thought. In the English-speaking world, he is terra incognita, a name associated with Nazism, the author of a largely un-translated oeuvre forming no recognizable system, coming to us from a disturbing place and time in the form of fragments. The Enemy is a comprehensive reconstruction and analysis of all of Schmitt's major works, presented in an arresting narrative form, which reveals the complex ways in which his ideas took shape in the intertwining timelines of civil and world wars.Customer Reviews:
