Panic, Prosperity, and Progress Five Centuries of History and the MarketsTIMOTHY KNIGHT

Lead PositiveWhat Highly Effective Leaders See, Say, and DoKATHRYN D. CRAMER

Description: How to implement effective, magnetic leadership by applying asset-based thinking and shifting your mindset from the negative to the positive. Lead Positive takes the fundamentals of Asset-Based Thinking (ABT) and turns them into a playbook for successful leadership. ABT is a simple mindset management process that shows people how to make small shifts in perception and thinking to achieve great results. Cramer shows leaders how to apply ABT to shift their attention away from what is negative and learn to intentionally shine the spotlight on the positive, benefi cial facts of a situation. As they make this mental shift from negative to positive aspects, they improve their optimism, empathy, and confi dence. When their mindset zooms in on what is strong, valuable, and possible, what they say and do is far more likely to inspire others to action. In short, ABT helps leaders shift internally so they can excel externally. Lead Positive weaves neuroscience and positive psychology to create effective leadership strategies.

Description: In this book, Jonathan Fenby, a leading expert on the People’s Republic, makes plain that China faces major challenges which stand in the way of global domination. It has to deal with political, economic, social and international tests, each of which involves structural diffi culties that will put the system under strain. The picture of China invoked by admirers to argue that it will rule the world does not accord with reality. Based on Fenby’s extensive knowledge of contemporary China, this punchy analysis offers a pragmatic view of where the PRC is heading at a time when its future is too important an issue for wishful theorizing.

Description: Throughout history, war seems to have had an iron grip on humanity. In this short book, internationally renowned philosopher of war, Christopher Coker, challenges the view that war is an idea that we can cash in for an even better one – peace. War, he argues, is central to the human condition; it is part of the evolutionary inheritance which has allowed us to survive and thrive. New technologies and new geopolitical battles may transform the face and purpose of war in the 21st century, but our capacity for war remains undiminished. The inconvenient truth is that we will not see the end of war until it exhausts its own evolutionary possibilities.

Are We All Scientifi c Experts Now?Harry Collins

Description: To ordinary people, science used to seem infallible. Scientists were heroes, selfl essly pursuing knowledge for the common good. More recently, a series of scientifi c scandals, frauds and failures have led us to question science’s pre-eminence. In this provocative new book, Harry Collins seeks to redeem scientifi c expertise, and reasserts science’s special status. Despite the messy realities of day-to-day scientifi c endeavor, he emphasizes the superior moral qualities of science, dismissing the dubious “default” expertise displayed by many of those outside the scientifi c community. Science, he argues, should serve as an example to ordinary citizens of how to think and act, and not the other way round.

JavaScript & jQueryInteractive Front-End Web Development HardcoverJON DUCKETT

Description: The book takes a far more visual approach than other titles, with lots of diagrams, infographics, and lifestyle photography, following the same format as HTML & CSS (design and build websites). The audience of that title has already shown a strong interest in a book on JavaScript in this format. Unlike the majority of books on JavaScript or JQuery, this title covers both (because JQuery makes it easier and faster to develop your own scripts), and it does not assume experience of either of these technologies. It will make use of some popular JQuery plugins to illustrate techniques that would otherwise require many pages of detailed explanation (if the reader were being taught to create the plugins from scratch themselves). By explaining how it works, we can use fewer pages and still explain the same core concepts (simultaneously showing readers how to use JQuery plugins rather than writing scripts from scratch).
