Cadogan Guide London Paris

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gumbel, Andrew, PUBLISHER: Cadogan Guides, Most U.S. visitors to Europe make a beeline for one or both of the continent's most celebrated cities, and as connections through the Channel Tunnel or by air become more frequent and cheaper, short breaks and even day trips have competition. This updated edition includes new favorites, such as the London Eye and the revamped Pompidou Centre, as well as classics such as Big Ben and the Eiffel Tower. These two European capitals are full of history and culture and buzz with street life. Graceful architecture, glorious art, exclusive shopping areas, and green, stately gardens are all compiled in an accessible, condensed format. The guide focuses on what short-stay visitors need to know, providing expert advice on major events, crucial sights, and the best places to shop, drink, eat, and stay. Even if visitors only have a weekend, this essential guide goes straight to the heart of these historic but also vibrantly modern cities. As well as the famous landmarks and attractions, Cadogan also offers insider tips on the havens behind the bustling streets and explores the most interesting neighborhoods, quarters, and city "villages"' where travelers can wander the streets and soak up the atmosphere. Cadogan's indispensable short-break guide helps them pack the most into every minute of their stay.

Wings of Judgment: American Bombing in World War II

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Schaffer, Ronald, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, World War II--"the good war"--is here viewed from a new angle of vision, one that sheds fresh light on how major decisions were reached. More than just a book on the strategy and outcome of American bombing in World War II, Wings of Judgment tells about choices in war, decisions that determined whether hundreds of thousands of people lived or died and whether famous cities and great monuments of civilization survived or were destroyed. It is about the bombing of Dresden and Berlin and of dozens of cities and towns all over Germany and about the preservation of Rome and Florence. It is about the incineration of Tokyo, the bombing of Hiroshima, and the sparing of one of Japan's most beautiful and holy places, the city of Kyoto. Describing U.S. air raids that terrified inhabitants of enemy nations and citizens of enemy-occupied countries, it raises serious questions about the military and moral effects of American bombing. It also tells of American efforts to avoid killing civilians needlessly. Taking us behind the scenes at military headquarters, Schaffer shows that even the toughest warriors occasionally found themselves offering moral arguments for their actions, arguing that they were made right by enemy atrocities, by the justness of the Allied cause, and by the numbers of lives of American servicemen that Allied bombing might save.

Gender, Work, and Economy: Unpacking the Global Economy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gottfried, Heidi, PUBLISHER: Polity Press, This engaging new text uses a feminist lens to crack open the often hidden worlds of gender and work, addressing enduring questions about how structural inequalities are produced and why they persist. Making visible the social relationships that drive the global economy, the book explores how economic transformations not only change the way we work, but how we live our lives. The full extent of changing patterns of employment and the current financial crisis cannot be fully understood in the confines of narrow conceptions of work and economy. Feminists address this shortcoming by developing both a theory and a political movement aimed at unveiling the power relations inherent in old and new forms of work. By providing an analysis of gender, work, and the economy, Heidi Gottfried brings to light the many faces of power from the bedroom to the boardroom. A discussion of globalization is threaded throughout the book to uncover the impact of increasing global interconnections, and vivid case studies are included, from industrialized countries such as the US and the global cities of New York, London, and Tokyo, as well as from developing countries and the emerging global cities of Beijing, Shanghai, and Dubai. This comprehensive analysis of gender and work in a global economy, incorporating sociology, geography, and political economy perspectives, will be a valued companion to students in gender studies and across the social sciences more generally.
