Reputational EconomicsWhy Who You Know is Worth More Than What You Have

Joshua Klein

In an increasingly Internet-focused world, online reputation, from Twitter followers to shopping habits, has become a new form of currency - and both consumers and companies are cashing in.

As the internet has increasingly become more social, the value of individual reputation has risen, and a new currency based on reputation has been created. This means that not only are companies tracking what an individual is tweeting and what sites they spend the most time on, but they’re using this knowledge to predict the consumer’s future behaviour.

But what if there were a way to harness the power of these new technologies to empower the individual and entrepreneur? What if it turned out that David was actually better suited to navigate this new realm of reputation than Goliath? And what if he ushered in a new age of business in which reputation, rather than money, was the strongest currency of all?

Welcome to the age of Reputational Economics, where Avis is currently discounting car rentals based on Twitter followers, where Carnival Cruise Lines are offering free upgrades based on a Klout score, and where Amazon and Microsoft are a short way away from dynamically pricing their goods based on a consumer’s reach and reputation online.

JOSHUA KLEIN is an Internationally renowned technology expert who studies systems, from computer networks and institutions to consumer hardware. His recent projects have included an acclaimed television series on the history of innovation on the National Geographic Channel, called The Link, and one of the most watched TED videos of all time (about a vending machine that trains crows to exchange found coins for peanuts).

Environmental DebtThe Hidden Costs of a Changing Global Economy

Amy Larkin

An award-winning environmental activist and consultant argues that, far from being a roadblock to growth, conservation is imperative to economic success.

Environmental Debt issues a clarion call for governments, businesses, and consumers to recalculate the financial contributions of the natural world — and the long-hidden costs of environmental damage. In this innovative book, Amy Larkin explores the new concept of environmental debt, and the accounting tools to track it, such as Environmental Profit & Loss Sheets, to show how businesses and governments can use conservation to drive growth by combining three central tenets: take the long view; accept that pollution can no longer be free or subsidised; and government must play a vital role in catalysing clean technology and growth while preventing environmental destruction.

As companies struggle to strategise in the face of uncertain oil prices and extreme weather, this timely and important book will transform how policy makers, business leaders, and environmentalists think about the future of commerce.

AMY LARKIN is the Business Advisor for Greenpeace International and the former director of Greenpeace Solutions. She has won multiple awards, as well as recently having been nominated for the United Nations Foundation Clean Energy, Education and Empowerment Award. She is currently advising Mars, Inc. and Unilever on overhauling their supply chain and manufacturing operations.

Swarm Intelligence What Nature Teaches Us about Shaping Creative Leadership

James Haywood Rolling, Jr.

A surprising look at the true origins of creativity, urging more group collaboration and social networking in the pursuit of innovation.

CEOs around the world rank creativity as the most desirable leadership quality of the future. Employers rate innovation and problem solving as in-demand skills for workers and report a shortage of job candidates that measure up. Yet, our schools are increasingly turning into educational environments that stymie creativity — leaving children cut off from their natural impulses and boxed in by expectations.

In Swarm Intelligence, Rolling argues that we need to turn our workplaces — and schools — into crucibles for collective creativity. Drawing on cutting-edge research in the realms of biological swarm theory, systems theory, and complexity theory, Rolling shows why working in groups makes us both smarter and more creative, and how we can put these principles in practice at the earliest stages of life, to develop the next generation of capable leaders. He argues that this model, rather than the pursuit of individual achievement, promises the greatest potential for the next generation.

JAMES HAYWOOD ROLLING JR. is the Chair of Art Education and a Dual Associate Professor in Art Education and Teaching and Leadership at Syracuse University. He sits on the Board of Directors of the National Art Education Association. He is a frequent speaker, and works for the TED-Ed Brain Trust. He lives in Syracuse, New York.

Startup RisingThe Entrepreneurial Revolution Remaking the Middle East

Christopher M. Schroeder

Foreword by Marc Andreessen

A surprising look at the surge of entrepreneurship that has accompanied the recent uprisings in the Middle East, and why it’s the new best place for Western investment and opportunity.

Despite the world’s elation at the Arab Spring, shockingly little has changed politically in the Middle East; even frontliners Egypt and Tunisia continue to suffer repression, fixed elections, and bombings, while Syria descends into civil war. But in the midst of the Arab Spring, another revolution emerged which promises to reinvent the region as a center of innovation and progress: entrepreneurship.

As a seasoned angel investor in emerging markets, Christopher Schroeder was curious but sceptical about the future of investing in the Arab world. Travelling to Dubai, Cairo, Amman, Beirut, Istanbul, and even Damascus, he saw thousands of talented, successful, and intrepid entrepreneurs, all willing to face cultural, legal, and societal impediments inherent to their worlds. Equally important, he saw major private equity firms, venture capitalists, and tech companies like Google, Intel, Cisco, Yahoo, and Living Social making significant bets, despite the uncertainty in the region. Here, he marries his own observations with the predictions of these tech giants to offer a surprising and timely look at the second stealth revolution in the Middle East - one that promises to reinvent it as a centre of innovation and progress.

CHRISTOPHER M. SCHROEDER is an entrepreneur and angel investor. In 2010, he wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post about the startups in Dubai, and was subsequently invited by Hillary Clinton’s office to judge a startup competition in Cairo one week before Tahrir Square. He lives in Washington, DC.

BreakpointWhy the Web will Implode, Search will be Obsolete, and Everything Else you Need to Know about Technology is in Your Brain

Jeff Stibel

Neuroscientist and entrepreneur Jeff Stibel shows how the brain can act as a guide to understanding the future of the internet.

What can the human brain and its relationship to the internet tell us about our society, our technologies, and our businesses? A lot, as it turns out. The internet today is a virtual replica of the brain, and the networks that leverage it grow and collapse in ways that are easily predictable if you understand the brain and other biological networks.

We are living in the midst of a networking revolution. All of the major technology innovations of the 21st century - social networking, cloud computing, search engines, and crowdsourcing, to name a few - leverage the internet and are thus bound by the rules of networks. We have seen the exponential growth of these technologies, and they have led to a more efficient and tightly connected world. But what many people don’t realize is that all networks eventually reach a breakpoint.

JEFF STIBEL is currently serving as Chairman and CEO of The Dun & Bradstreet Credibility Corporation and was previously President and CEO of Web.com, Inc. Stibel is Chairman of BrainGate, a company whose “brain chip” technology allows the severely disabled to control electronics with nothing but their thoughts, which was featured on 60 Minutes. He resides in Malibu, California with his wife and two children.

EgyptomaniaOur Three Thousand Year Obsession with the Land of the Pharaohs

Bob Brier

Introduction by Zahi Hawass

A rollicking journey through the history of our infatuation with pharaohs, mummies, and pyramids, from one of the world’s preeminent Egyptologists.

The world has always been fascinated with ancient Egypt. What is it about Ancient Egypt that breeds such obsession and imitation? Egyptomania explores the burning fascination with all things Egyptian and the events that fanned the flames — from ancient times, to Napoleon’s Egyptian campaign, to the Discovery of Tutankhamen’s tomb by Howard Carter in the 1920s.

For forty years, Bob Brier, one of the world’s foremost Egyptologists, has been amassing one of the largest collections and seeking to understand the pull of Ancient Egypt on our world today. In this original and groundbreaking book, he explores our three thousand year old fixation with recovering Egyptian culture and its meaning. He traces our enthrallment with the mummies that seem to have cheated death and the pyramids that seem to have grown from the sand.

Drawing on his personal collection - from Napoleon’s twenty volume Egypt encyclopaedia to Howard Carter’s letters to an actual mummy — this is an inventive and mesmerizing tour of how an ancient civilization endures in ours today.

BOB BRIER, known as Mr. Mummy, is a Senior Research Fellow at the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University and the author of eight books. He has conducted research in pyramids and tombs in 15 countries and was the host of several award-winning television specials. He lives in Bronx, NY.

Lincoln Dreamt He DiedThe Midnight Visions of Remarkable Americans from Colonial Times to Freud

Andrew Burstein

Historian Andrew Burstein explores the early American psyche through the dreams of its citizens, including such luminaries as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Abraham Lincoln, and Mark Twain.

Before Sigmund Freud made dreams the cornerstone of understanding an individual’s inner life, Americans shared their dreams unabashedly with one another through letters, diaries, and casual conversation. For the first time, this innovative new book unearths what we can learn about the lives and emotions of Americans, from colonial times to the beginning of the modern age from their dreams.

Through a thorough study of dreams recorded by iconic figures such as John and Abigail Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln, as well as everyday men and women, we glimpse the emotions of earlier generations and understand how those feelings shaped their lives and careers, and thus gain a fuller multi-dimensional sense of the USA’s past. No one has ever looked at the building blocks of the American identity in this way, and Burstein reveals important clues and landmarks that show the origins of the ideas and values that remain central to America today.

ANDREW BURSTEIN is the Charles P. Manship Professor of History at Louisiana State University, USA. Burstein’s writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Nation, and Salon.com. He lives in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Art on the BlockTracking the New York Art World from SoHo to the Bowery, Bushwick and Beyond

Ann Fensterstock

An engrossing tour of the last four decades of contemporary art in New York City.

Art on the Block takes the reader on a journey through the neighborhood that shaped, and were shaped by, New York’s evolving art scene. Based on interviews with over 150 gallery owners, as well as the artists themselves, art expert Ann Fensterstock explores the genesis, expansion, maturation and ultimate restless migration of the New York art world from one initially undiscovered neighborhood to the next.

Opening with the colonization of the desolate South Houston Industrial District in the late 1960s, the book follows the art world’s subsequent elopements to the East Village in the ‘80s, Brooklyn in the mid-90s, Chelsea at the beginning of the new millennium and, most recently, to the Lower East Side. With a look to the newest neighborhood that artists are just now beginning to colonize, this is a must-read for both art enthusiasts as well as anyone with a passion for New York City.

ANN FENSTERSTOCK is an art historian and collector who serves on boards and committees at several museums and nonprofits in New York City and Washington. She speaks regularly on contemporary art and lives in New York City.

American HereticsCatholics, Jews, Muslims and the History of Religious Intolerance

Peter Gottschalk

A journey through American history that reveals an unsettling pattern of religious intolerance, from colonial anti-Quaker sentiment to modern-day Islamophobia.

In New York City, in the middle of the 19th century, a group of political activists, the Know Nothings, joined together to challenge a religious group they believed were hostile to the American values of liberty and freedom. The group that caused this uproar? Irish and German Catholics, then known as the most villainous religious group in America.

In American Heretics, historian Peter Gottschalk traces the arc of American religious discrimination from the exodus west by the Church of Latter Day Saints to the tragic siege at Waco Texas that killed 76 members of the Branch Davidian sect. Through each religion’s unique history, Gottschalk shows that, far from the dominant protestant religions being kept in check by the separation between church and state, religious groups from Quakers to Jews have been subjected to similar patterns of persecution. Today, many of these same religious groups that were once regarded as antithetical to American values are embraced as evidence of their strong religious heritage — giving hope to today’s Muslims, Sikhs, and other religious groups now under fire.

PETER GOTTSCHALK is the chair of the religion department at Wesleyan University. He has spoken at conferences and universities in the U.S., India, Bangladesh, and Europe, including the American Academy of Religions Conference and the Rockefeller Brothers Foundation conference, and is the recipient of a Fulbright-Hays fellowship. He lives Connecticut, USA.

Against Their WillThe Secret History of Medical Experimentation on Children in Cold War America

Allen M. Hornblum, Judith L. Newman & Gregory J. Dober

The shocking account of how doctors at prestigious universities routinely used children to carry out dangerous research including experiments with LSD and lobotomies.

During the Cold War, an alliance between American scientists, pharmaceutical companies, and the US military pushed the medical establishment into ethically fraught territory. Doctors and scientists at prestigious institutions were pressured to produce medical advances to compete with the perceived threats coming from the Soviet Union.

In Against Their Will, authors Allen Hornblum, Judith Newman, and Gregory Dober reveal the little-known history of unethical and dangerous medical experimentation on children in the United States. Through rare interviews and the personal correspondence of renowned medical investigators, they document how children — both normal and those termed “feebleminded” — from infants to teenagers, became human research subjects in terrifying experiments. They were drafted as “volunteers” to test vaccines, doused with ringworm, subjected to electric shock, and given lobotomies. They were also fed radioactive isotopes and exposed to chemical warfare agents. This groundbreaking book shows how institutional superintendents influenced by eugenics often turned these children over to scientific researchers without a second thought.

Based on years of archival work and numerous interviews with both scientific researchers and former test subjects, Against Their Will is a fascinating and disturbing look at the dark underbelly of American medical history.

ALLEN M. HORNBLUM is the author of five books. His work has been featured in media including CBS Evening News, the BBC World Service, and The New York Times.

JUDITH L. NEWMAN is an Associate Professor of Human Development at Penn State University, USA.

GREGORY J. DOBER writes on medical issues for organizational newsletters such as Prison Legal News.

The True GermanThe Diary of a World War II Military Judge

Werner Otto Müller-Hill

Edited and introduced by Robert Gellately

A recently discovered diary held by a German military judge from 1944 to 1945 that sheds new light on anti-Hitler sentiments inside the German army.

Werner Otto Müller-Hill served as a military judge in the Werhmacht during World War II. From March 1944 to the summer of 1945, he kept a diary, recording his impressions of what transpired around him as Germany hurtled into destruction - what he thought about the fate of the Jewish people, the danger from the Bolshevik East once an Allied victory was imminent, his longing for his home and family and, throughout it, a relentless disdain and hatred for the man who dragged his beloved Germany into this cataclysm: Adolf Hitler. Müller-Hill calls himself a German nationalist, the true Prussian idealist who was there before Hitler and would be there after.

Published in Germany and France, Müller-Hill’s diary has been hailed as a unique document, praised for its singular candor and uncommon insight into what the German army was like on the inside. It is an extraordinary testament to Germany’s people that historians are only now starting to acknowledge.

WERNER OTTO MÜLLER-HILL survived the war and went on to become a prosecutor. He died in 1977.

ROBERT GELLATELY is the Earl Ray Beck Professor of History at Florida State University and recently was the Bertelsmann Visiting Professor of Twentieth Century Jewish Politics and History at Oxford University.

JFK in the SenateThe Making of a President

John T. Shaw

Based on newly opened archives, congressional historian and political insider John Shaw sheds new light on JFK’s term in the Senate published to coincide with the 50th Anniversary of the shooting of JFK.

Before John F. Kennedy became a legendary young president he was the junior senator from Massachusetts. The Senate was where JFK’s presidential ambitions were born and first realized.

In the first book to deal exclusively with JFK’s Senate years, author John Shaw looks at how the young Senator was able to catapult himself on the national stage. Smart, dashing, irreverent and literary, the press could not get enough of him. Yet, largely overlooked has been Kennedy’s tenure on a special Senate committee to identify the five greatest senators in American history - JFK’s work on this special panel coalesced his relationships in Congress, and helped catapult him toward the presidency.

Based on primary documents from JFK’s Senate years as well as memoirs, oral histories, and interviews with his top aides, JFK in the Senate provides new insight into an underappreciated aspect of his political career.

JOHN SHAW is a senior correspondent and vice president for Market News International and a contributing writer for the Washington Diplomat. Shaw was a Media Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University for six years, and he speaks frequently to seminars for diplomats in Washington. He lives in Washington, D.C.

GiapThe General Who Defeated America in Vietnam

James A. Warren

An in-depth exploration of the strategy and tactics of the visionary commander who beat the United States in the Vietnam War.

General Vo Nguyen Giap was the commander in chief of the communist armed forces during two of his country’s most difficult conflicts – the first against Vietnam’s colonial masters, the French, and the second against the most powerful nation on earth, the United States. After long and bloody conflicts, he defeated both great Western powers and their Vietnamese allies, forever changing modern warfare. Yet, despite his profound success and the startling implications of his tactics, we know little about how he developed his revolutionary ideas or how he was able to carry them out with such ruthless efficiency.

In Giap, military historian James A. Warren brings to life a revolutionary general who deftly defeated world powers against incredible odds. Synthesizing ideas and tactics from an extraordinary range of sources, Giap was one of the first to realize that war is not only a series of battles between two armies and that victory can be won through the strength of a society’s social fabric.

As wars rage on across the world, this is an important and timely look at a man who was a master at defeating his enemies even when they thought they were winning.

JAMES A. WARREN is a military historian and freelance writer specializing in modern American military history. He has written books on the Vietnam War and the Cold War and contributed the chapter on the Vietnam War to The Atlas of American Military History. His reviews and articles have appeared in MHQ: The Quarterly Journal of Military History, as well as in Society and The Providence Journal. He lives in New York City.

The Death of PunishmentSearching for Justice among the Worst of the Worst

Robert Blecker

A passionate and counterintuitive defense of the death penalty that asks us to reconsider punishment as the key to reforming the judicial system.

In The Death of Punishment, criminal law professor and renowned victims’ advocate Robert Blecker looks closely at the “worst of the worst” in society, how we decide whether they should live or die, and what it costs us. He argues that, given the lack of a mandate in our prisons to actually punish criminals, the most vicious and callous offenders deserve to die; and that, given the often strong sentences imposed for lesser crimes, justice demands that proportion. Blecker bases this carefully considered philosophy on his unique access to many of America’s death rows and maximum security prisons.

Having spent thousands of hours over more than 25 years interviewing murderers condemned to die or sentenced to life without parole, he draws on the stories of real survivors and killers, such as Dr. William Petit, the Connecticut father whose family was brutally raped and burnt alive in 2007, and Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian mass murderer who is not eligible for the death penalty, to underscore his point. Through his guidance, we see not only what conscience demands for the truly debased, but also the poignant circumstances that should inspire us to mercy for others.

ROBERT BLECKER is a Professor at New York Law School and an expert on the death penalty. He served previously as Special Assistant Attorney General in the New York State Office of Special Anti-Corruption Prosecutor, and a Harvard University Fellow in Law and Humanities. The sole keynote speaker supporting the death penalty at major conferences including one in Geneva on the death penalty sponsored by Duke University Law School. He is a frequent commentator for national media, including The New York Times, CNN, and BBC World News. He lives in New York City.

An American Bride in KabulA Memoir

Phyllis Chesler

The extraordinary story of a young woman’s ordeal in a harem in Afghanistan and how her escape inspired her fight for human rights.

Twenty years old and in love, Phyllis Chesler, a Jewish-American girl from Brooklyn, embarked on an adventure that has lasted for more than a half-century. In 1961, when she arrived in Kabul with her Afghan bridegroom, authorities took away her American passport. Chesler was now the property of her husband’s family and had no rights of citizenship. Back in Afghanistan, her husband, a wealthy, westernized foreign college student with dreams of reforming his country, reverted to traditional and tribal customs. Chesler found herself unexpectedly trapped in a posh polygamous family, with no chance of escape. She fought against her seclusion and lack of freedom, her Afghan family’s attempts to convert her from Judaism to Islam, and her husband’s wish to permanently tie her to the country through childbirth.

Drawing upon her personal diaries, An American Bride in Kabul is the story of how a naïve American girl learned to see the world through eastern as well as western eyes and came to appreciate Enlightenment values. This dramatic tale re-creates a time gone by, a place that is no more, and shares the way in which Chesler turned adversity into a passion for worldwide social, educational, and political reform.

PHYLLIS CHESLER is an Emerita Professor of Psychology and Women’s Studies at City University of New York, bestselling author, legendary feminist leader, and psychotherapist.

Viral HateContaining Its Spread on the Internet

Abraham H. Foxman & Christopher Wolf

A hard look at the ease at which hate, bigotry, and violence are spread on the Internet and the work that citizens, law enforcement, and companies like Google and Facebook must do to stem the tide.

Even as the Internet nurtures global connections among peoples, a darker side of humanity is capitalizing on the pervasive nature of the world’s most powerful technology. Emboldened by anonymity, individuals and organizations from both left and right are freely spewing hateful vitriol without worrying about repercussions. Lies, bullying, conspiracy theories, bigoted and racist rants, and calls for violence targeting the most vulnerable circulate openly on the web. And thanks to the guarantees of America’s First Amendment and the borderless nature of the Internet, governing bodies are largely helpless to control this massive assault on human dignity and safety.

Abraham H. Foxman and Christopher Wolf expose the threat that this unregulated flow of bigotry poses to the world. They explore how social media companies like Facebook and YouTube as well as search engine giant Google are struggling to reconcile the demands of business with freedom of speech and the disturbing threat posed by today’s purveyors of hate. They explain the best tools available to citizens, parents, educators, law enforcement officers, and policy makers to protect the twin values of transparency and responsibility. As Foxman and Wolf show, only an aroused and engaged citizenry can stop the hate contagion before it spirals out of control - with potentially disastrous results.

ABRAHAM H.FOXMAN is the national director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and one of today’s preeminent voices against hatred, discrimination, and violence in the United States and worldwide. He is the author of three books.

CHRISTOPHER WOLF is widely recognized as one of the leading American practitioners in the field of privacy and data security law and serves as the director of Hogan Lovell LLP’s Privacy and Information Management practice group.

Battle for Ground ZeroInside the Political Struggle to Rebuild the World Trade Center

Elizabeth Greenspan

On the eve of the opening of One World Trade Center, a revealing look at the heated politics behind the long struggle to rebuild at Ground Zero.

In the aftermath of 9/11, Americans came together in a way not seen for a generation, pledging unity to rebuild after the horrific loss of the Twin Towers. People were signing up to go to war; rescue workers were laboring to clear rubble. But instead of becoming a rallying symbol in the fight against terrorism, Ground Zero has been plagued by intense conflict and controversy from the very start.

Battle for Ground Zero goes behind the scenes of this fight to rebuild, revealing how grieving families, commercial interests, and politicking bureaucrats clashed at every step of the way, confounding progress and infuriating the public. Since 2001, author Elizabeth Greenspan has been documenting the drama - conducting interviews with neighborhood residents, architects, officials, rescue workers, and victims’ relatives, as well as key New York players like Mayor Bloomberg, uber-developer Larry Silverstein, and Governor Pataki. Here she provides a warts-and-all look at this pivotal decade - from the bitter feuding between city officials and victims’ families, to the endless controversy over the memorial design, to the fraught tenth anniversary, against a still-unfinished building.

Publishing just as the memorial is finally completed, Battle for Ground Zero is an exhaustively researched reminder of how long it took to put a brave face on the horror of 9/11.

ELIZABETH GREENSPAN is a writer and urban anthropologist currently teaching at Harvard University. She writes regularly about Ground Zero for The Atlantic online. Her writing has also appeared in The Washington Post and The Harvard Review, among other publications, and she has worked for the Associated Press’s Rome Bureau, and National Journal magazine. She has lectured about Ground Zero and 9/11 at numerous colleges and universities. She lives in Massachusetts, USA.

God RevisedHow Religion Must Evolve in a Scientific Age

Galen Guengerich

A call for an evolution in the concept of God for the majority who stand between convinced atheists and “true believers”.

Over the past few decades, the ever-expanding scientific knowledge of the universe and the human condition, combined with the evolution from religion-based to personal morality, has led to a mass crisis of faith. Leaders of most Protestant and Catholic religious traditions have watched their memberships stagnate or dwindle. Over the years, philosophers and scientists have argued that science has in fact “killed” God, and that if we believe the facts science has presented, we must also accept that God is fiction. Others, holding fast to their long-standing doctrines, attempt to justify their beliefs by using God to explain gaps in scientific knowledge.

Having left an upbringing in a family of Mennonite preachers to discover his own experience of God, Galen Guengerich understands the modern struggle to combine contemporary world views with outdated religious dogma. Drawing upon his own experiences, he proposes that just as humanity has had to evolve its conception of the universe to coincide with new scientific discoveries, we are long overdue in evolving our concept of God. Gone are the days of the magical, supernatural deity in the sky who imposes wrath upon those who have not followed his word. Especially in a scientific age, we need an experience of a God we can believe in - an experience that grounds our morality, unites us in community, and engages us with a world that still holds more mystery than answers.

GALEN GUENGERICH serves as the senior minister of All Souls in New York City, one of the largest and most prominent Unitarian Universalist congregations in the U.S. He attended Princeton Theological Seminary, and earned a PhD in theology at the University of Chicago. His sermon “The Shaking of the Foundations” appeared in Representative American Speeches 2001-2002 as one of seven responses to September 11, alongside former President George Bush and former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.

The inside story of one of the biggest police cover-ups in U.S. history.

In May 2010, NYPD officer Adrian Schoolcraft made headlines when he released a series of secretly recorded audio tapes exposing corruption and abuse at the highest levels of the police department. But instead of admitting mistakes and pledging reform, Schoolcraft’s superiors forced him into a mental hospital in an effort to discredit the evidence.

In The NYPD Tapes, the reporter who first broke the Schoolcraft story brings his ongoing saga up-to-date, revealing the rampant abuses that continue in the NYPD today, including warrantless surveillance, systemic harassment and underreporting of serious crimes like rape and murder. Through this lens, he tells the broader tale of how American law enforcement has for the past thirty years been distorted by a ruthless quest for numbers. Forced to produce certain crime stats or face discipline, cops in New York and everywhere else fudge the figures, sweeping countless innocents into the police net. Rayman paints a terrifying picture of a system gone wild, and the pitiless fate of the whistleblower who tried to stop it.

GRAHAM RAYMAN is a writer for The Village Voice who has covered the New York City Police Department for 17 years. His NYPD Tapes series has been nominated for numerous prizes including the Pulitzer Prize. He lives in New York City.

The Party ForeverInside China’s Modern Communist Elite

Rowan Callick

An inside look at the new leaders of the Chinese Communist Party, and why the country’s continued prosperity will keep them in power for years to come.

A century after its underground beginnings, today’s Chinese Communist Party exerts far-reaching control over every aspect of private life. Beyond it’s legendary policing of the Internet within China’s borders, even seemingly non-political domains are subject to its authority: routine business deals require party approval; university courses reflect party doctrine; and party families amass incredible wealth while other enterprises are squeezed out. Experts have long predicted that the Party leadership would mellow as the country’s economic fortunes soar, but the next generation of political heavyweights show no sign of loosening their grip on the reins of power.

Today’s huge new class of young professionals, whether they believe in the Party’s ideology or not, are as focused as ever on strengthening the Party’s role and silencing dissent. In The Party Forever, Rowan Callick goes behind the scenes to reveal the workings of China’s political elite, introduces us to its future leaders and explore how prepared the nation is to meet the challenges of its new role in the 21st century. This is an essential and eye-opening account of a poorly understood but hugely influential player in world politics.

ROWAN CALLICK is Asian Pacific editor for The Australian and was previously its Beijing-based China correspondent. He has also been the China correspondent (based in Hong Kong) for the Australian Financial Review, a senior writer with Time magazine, and his work has appeared in Foreign Policy. He received the Graham Perkin Award for Journalist of the Year in 1995 and has won two Walkley Awards for Asia Pacific coverage. He lives in Melbourne, Australia.

In the Shadow of the Rising DragonStories of Repression in the New China

Edited by Xu Youyu and Hua Ze

Foreword by Andrew Nathan Dissidents in China risk their freedom to reveal the truth about life under their country’s police state.

Over the last decade China has undergone a transformation. After the dark days of the Cultural Revolution, it has emerged as one of the 21st century’s most powerful economies. Yet, despite these rapid changes, China’s human rights record remains abysmal, and a heavy shroud of secrecy protects the one-party system from accountability.

Chinese citizens from all walks of life share their stories of brutality and oppression. While inconceivable in the West, In the Shadow of the Rising Dragon reveals that public beatings, grueling official questioning, unexplained detentions, and house arrest have become common-place occurrences, requiring only a minor infraction to be set in motion. What emerges is a pattern of harassment directed, not at opposition figures, but ordinary citizens who live in crippling uncertainty of their future.

Edited by two Chinese scholars, both of whom have experienced surveillance, control, abduction, and detention, this is a probing and revealing look at life under the police state of the world’s most populous country.

State of FailureMahmoud Abbas and the Unmaking of the Palestinian State

Jonathan Schanzer

A provocative look at the past, present, and future of Palestine, arguing that the biggest obstacle to Palestinian statehood isn’t Israel, but its own corrupt leadership.

In State of Failure, Israeli-Palestine expert Jonathan Schanzer argues that the reasons behind Palestine’s inertia are far more complex than its supporters believe, and that, despite recent rumblings, the dream of statehood may again be scuttled by internal corruption and incompetence.

Drawing on exclusive sources within the Palestinian Authority, the author shows how Mahmoud Abbas used President George W. Bush’s support to catapult himself into the presidency. After only a short time in office, Abbas began forestalling international efforts to develop responsible Palestinian infrastructure, instead ensuring that his family and inner circle benefited handsomely - and illegally - from U.S. foreign assistance. Schanzer reveals the mechanisms through which Abbas has feathered his own nest, and why it may cost the Palestinians everything. This is a must-read for both pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian partisans at this critical juncture in Middle Eastern politics.

JONATHN SCHANZER is the vice president for research at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.He lives in the US.

Bosnia’s Million BonesSolving the World’s Greatest Forensic Puzzle

Christian Jennings

The amazing story of how forensic scientists pioneered groundbreaking techniques to identify the victims of the Yugoslav Wars, and how their work is bringing war criminals to justice worldwide.

In July 1995, at the height of the conflict in Bosnia, 8,000 men and boys in the small town of Srebrenica were massacred in what has been described as the worst war crime in Europe since World War II. In its road to healing, a team of forensic scientists, under the aegis of the International Commission for Missing Persons, worked relentlessly to identify every one of the victims. The process pioneered a new science that is being used around the world to change the face of war.

Foreign correspondent and former communications director at International Commission for Missing Persons, Christian Jennings reveals how this new science has allowed the gathering of forensic evidence of the 350,000 people killed in the Iraq war, as well as delving decades back to trace the dead in the brutal regimes in Chile, Argentina and Colombia. With special insights into how these new forensic tools helped to identify the victims of both 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina, this is a moving and fast-paced story about the relentless power of science to begin to heal the wounds of a broken country. Currently being used as evidence in the war crime investigations at the Hague and elsewhere, Bosnia’s Million Bones is an amazing story of science, politics, and justice.

CHRISTIAN JENNINGS is a journalist and human rights activist who has written for Wired and The Economist, among others. He has been investigating and covering the hunt for Ratko Mladic and other major war-criminals in the Balkans since 1999. From 1994-1998, he covered wars, genocides, humanitarian crises and other news in Rwanda, Burundi, Kenya and Democratic Congo for Reuters. He lives in Sarajevo, Bosnia.

The Secret World of SleepHow the Nighttime Brain Creates Consciousness

Penelope A. Lewis

A highly regarded neuroscientist explains the little known role of sleep in processing our waking life and making sense of difficult emotions and experiences.

Old wives tales have long advised to “sleep on a problem”, today scientists are discovering the truth behind these folk sayings,and how the busy brain radically improves our minds through sleep and dreams.

In The Secret World of Sleep, neuroscientist Penelope A. Lewis explores the latest research into the nighttime brain to understand the real benefits of sleep. She shows how, while our body rests, the brain practices tasks it learned during the day, replays traumatic events to mollify them, and forges connections between distant concepts. By understanding the roles that the nocturnal brain plays in our waking life, we can improve the relationship between the two, and even boost creativity and become smarter. This is a fascinating exploration of one of the most surprising corners of neuroscience that shows how science may be able to harness the power of sleep to improve learning, health, and more.

PENELOPE A. LEWIS is a neuroscientist at the University of Manchester, where she runs the Sleep and Memory Lab. She has written for a number of popular science publications, including New Scientist. Her research has been featured on the BBC, and she’s received funding from top institutes, including the Wellcome Trust and Unilever. She lives in Manchester, UK.

The End of PlaguesThe Global Battle Against Infectious Diseases

John Rhodes

An absorbing history of the world’s deadliest diseases and how today’s scientists are racing against the clock to eradicate these viruses once and for all.

At the turn of the twentieth century, smallpox claimed the lives of two million people per year. By 1979, the disease had been eradicated and victory was declared across the globe. Yet the story of smallpox remains the exception, as today a host of deadly contagions, from polio to AIDS, continue to threaten human health around the world.

Spanning three centuries, The End of Plagues weaves together the discovery of vaccination, the birth and growth of immunology, and the fight to eradicate the world’s most feared diseases. From Edward Jenner’s discovery of vaccination in 1796, to the early nineteenth-century foundling voyages in which chains of orphans, vaccinated one by one, were sent to colonies around the globe, to the development of polio vaccines and the stockpiling of smallpox as a biological weapon in the Cold War, world-renown immunologist John Rhodes charts our fight against these plagues, and shows how vaccinations gave humanity the upper hand.

JOHN RHODES is one of the world’s leading immunologists. He is a fellow of the Royal College of Pathologists, has served on UK government international vaccine missions and published numerous articles in leading journals such as Nature, Science and The Lancet. He lives and works in Cambridge, UK.

Bankrupting PhysicsHow Today’s Top Scientists are Gambling Away Their Credibility

Alexander Unzicker & Sheilla Jones

An award-winning argument that theoretical physics has become too abstract and a call for science to return to its experimental roots.

The recently celebrated discovery of the Higgs boson has captivated the public’s imagination with the promise that it can explain the origins of everything in the universe. Yet behind closed doors, physicists are admitting that there is much more to this story, and even years of gunning the Large Hadron Collider and herculean number crunching may still not lead to a deeper understanding of the laws of nature.

In this fascinating and eye-opening account, the authors question whether the large-scale, multinational enterprises actually lead us to the promised land of understanding the universe. Bankrupting Physics takes us on a tour of contemporary physics and show how a series of highly publicized theories met a dead end. Unzicker and Jones systematically unpack the recent hot theories such as “parallel universes”, “string theory”, and “inflationary cosmology”, and provide an accessible explanation of each. They argue that physics has abandoned its evidence-based roots and shifted to untestable mathematical theories, and they issue a clarion call for the science to return to its experimental foundation.

ALEXANDER UNZICKER is a German theoretical physicist and neuroscientist.

SHEILLA JONES is an award-winning Canadian journalist and a science contributor to CBC.

The Ageless GenerationHow Advances in Biomedicine Will Transform the Global Economy

Alex Zhavoronkov

An intriguing look into advances in biomedical science and their impact on the future of healthcare, retirement, and the global economy.

Over the past 20 years, the biomedical research community has been delivering hundreds of breakthroughs expected to extend human lifespan beyond thresholds imaginable today. However, much of this research has not yet been adopted into clinical practice, nor has it been widely publicized. Biomedicine will transform our society forever by allowing people to live longer and to continue working and contributing financially to the economy longer, rather than entering into retirement and draining the economy through pensions and senior healthcare. Old age will become a concept of the past, breakthroughs in regenerative medicine will continue, and an unprecedented boom to the global economy, with an influx of older able-bodied workers and consumers, will be a reality.

A leading expert in aging research, author Alex Zhavoronkov provides a bird’s eye view on the progress science has already made, from repairing tissue damage to growing functional organs from a single cell, and illuminates the possibilities that the scientific and medical community will soon make into realities. The Ageless Generation is an engaging work that causes us to rethink our ideas of age and ability in the modern world.

ALEX ZHAVORONKOV, PhD, is the director and trustee of the Biogerontology Research Foundation, a think tank supporting aging research worldwide. He heads the laboratory of bioinformatics at the Clinical Research Center for Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology, and is involved in the World Federation for Regenerative Medicine and the European Federation for Regenerative Medicine. He lives in the UK.

SuperFuelThorium, the Green Energy Source for the Future

Richard Martin

A riveting look at how an alternate source of energy is revolutionizing nuclear power, promising a safe and clean future for millions.

At the dawn of the atomic age, uranium and thorium were equally important as the elements of choice in researching nuclear energy. But it was uranium that won out, and thorium far cleaner, safer, and more abundant was relegated to the dustbin of science. Now, as the world searches for cheap, non-carbon-emitting energy sources, thorium is reemerging as an overlooked solution.

As one of the first energy experts to promote the development of thorium, award-winning science writer Richard Martin combines science, new historical research, and a timely business narrative to show how we can wean ourselves off our fossil-fuel addiction and shift to a lower-risk energy source.

“Makes the case that thorium, an abundant, safe element that cannot easily be turned into a weapon, should be fuelling our reactors instead of uranium…convincing.” - New Scientist

RICHARD MARTIN is an award-winning science writer whose work has appeared in Wired, Time, Fortune, The Atlantic, and The Best Science Writing of 2004. He is the editorial director of Pike Research, a leading clean energy firm. He lives in Colorado, USA.
