The Oxford History of the Classical World: The Roman World
Imprint: Oxford, Oxford University Press, 1988
Edition: First Thus
Binding: Softback
The Romans succeeded in less than 53 years in subjecting almost the whole inhabited world to their rule. This book tells the story of the rise of Rome from its origins as a cluster of villages to the foundation of the Roman Empire by Augustus and its consolidation in the first two centuries AD. An envoi discusses some aspects of the later Empire and its influence on western civilizations, not least through the adoption of Christianity. Chapters dealing with social and political history are interspersed with chapters on literature, philosophy, and the arts: the conquests of Rome; Roman Emperors; Plautus, Terence, Virgil and Roman literature; Roman historians such as Tacitus and Livy; Stoicism and Scepticism; and Roman art and architecture are among the topics dealt with. The historical framework of the book is reinforced by maps and chronological charts, and the book is profusely illustrated with colour and b/w illustrations. All of the 17 contributors are acknowledged authorities in their fields.. Book. Book Condition: As New. Binding: Trade Paperback

Bodger, Joan
The Crack in the Teacup: The Life of an Old Woman Steeped in Stories
Imprint: Toronto, McClelland & Stewart Ltd., 2001
Edition: First Thus
Binding: Softback,
With Dust Jacket
Joan Bodger born in 1923, is a self-proclaimed old woman, whose life is so intertwined with story that she cannot write about one without telling about the other. A well-known storyteller and Gestalt therapist, she finds strength in stories - her own, other people's, and the myths and legends of the world. She has lived a life that fell apart not once but several times. Each time, she pieced her life together again; she has learned to appreciate both the mosaic and the cracks.Joan's father was an officer in the United States Coast Guard; her British mother came from a distinguished and eccentric shipping family. Because of her father's job, she moved frequently from one tough American port town to another. But she also lived for a time in an English country house. Trying to fit herself into each new situation, she not only relied on the family stories she knew so well, but she also became an acute observer of the nuances of class shibboleth, racial prejudice,... She writes frankly of the discoveries of childhood, the mysteries of family life, the power of sexuality, the devastating effect of loss, and, through it all, the transforming influence of literature, of story. A remarkable old woman, she tells her story with honesty, candor, and wit. This courageous autobiography will be an inspiration to all readers -- but particularly to women dealing with the poorly charted territory of their later years.412p. illus index.

Alexander the Great's Art of Strategy: The Timeless Leadership Lessons of History's Greatest Empire Builder

Edition: Uncorrected Proof.
Binding: Softback
The chief marketing officer of an international consulting firm reveals how the strategy secrets of Alexander the Great can help you gain the competitive edge in today's tough business world. . He built cities and cultures that still exist today. Perhaps the greatest military strategist, tactician, and ruler in history, Alexander the Great has been an enduring influence on world business and military leaders for thousands of years. Ted Turner keeps a bust of him in his office. General Norman Schwarzkopf credits his brilliant tactical strategies as the inspiration for his troops' approach to Desert Storm, including the Hail Mary flanking move that inflicted the final defeat on Saddam Hussein's Iraqi army. His innovative strategies and winning philosophies (Aristotle was his mentor) are as relevant today as they were in 330 B.C., and Partha Bose presents an intelligent, well-researched examination of Alexander's life, draws out the lessons, and shows how they've been applied in today's business environment. 284p. endnotes Slight fold on cove. else new.

Botting, Douglas
Gerald Durrell : The Authorized Biography
Imprint: London, HarperCollins, 1999
Edition: 1st UK Edition.
Binding:
Hardback
,
With Dust Jacket
Unblemished by formal education, undaunted by profound alcoholism, Durrell wrote 37 books, among them ''My Family and Other Animals,'' the classic memoir of his childhood years on Corfu. He reached millions of television viewers with his unlikely blend of wicked humor and passionate belief in conservation. He founded a zoo on Jersey in the Channel Islands, now widely regarded as one of the world's best. He championed the captive breeding of endangered species, when most zoos regarded the idea as anathema. And he saved whole species from extinction. Durrell did all this, moreover, with panache and self-deprecation. Awarded the Order of the British Empire, he modestly averred that the O.B.E. stood for ''Other Buggers' Efforts.'' And on the brink of death, at the age of 70, he summed up his own contribution this way: ''Life is like a superlative meal and the world is the maitre d'hotel. What I'm doing is the equivalent of leaving a reasonable tip.'' 644p. illus bibliography. Large heavy volume. Book. Book Condition: Fine. Binding: Hardcover. Jacket: Fine
