TRANSCRIPT
The Cambridge Companion to Nelson MandelaEdited by Rita Barnard
Nelson Mandela was one of the most revered figures of our time. His legacy, however, is not uncontested: his decision to embark on an armed struggle in the 1960s, his solitary talks with apartheid officials in the 1980s and the economic policies adopted during his presidency still spark intense debate. The essays in this Companion, written by experts in history, anthropology, jurisprudence, cinema, literature and visual studies, address these and other issues. They examine how Mandela became the icon he is today and consider the meanings and uses of his internationally recognizable image.

The Outbreak of the First World War
Edited by Jack S. Levy and John A. Vasquez
The First World War had profound consequences both for the evolution of the international system and for domestic political systems. Offering a unique interdisciplinary perspective, this volume brings together a distinguished group of diplomatic historians and international relations scholars to debate the causes of the war. Organised around several theoretically based questions, it shows how power, alliances, historical rivalries, militarism, nationalism, public opinion, internal politics, and powerful personalities shaped decision-making in each of the major countries in the lead up to war.

Mao’s Little Red Book
Edited by Alexander C. Cook
Mao Zedong’s Little Red Book is one of the most visible and ubiquitous symbols of twentieth-century radicalism. Published for the first time in 1964, it rapidly became the must-have accessory for Red Guards and revolutionaries from Berkeley to Bamako. Yet, despite its worldwide circulation and enduring presence there has, until now, been no serious scholarly effort to understand this seminal text as a global historical phenomenon. Mao’s Little Red Book brings together a range of innovative scholars from around the world to explore the fascinating variety of uses and forms that Mao’s Quotations has taken, from rhetoric, art and song, to talisman, badge, and weapon.

A Global History
The Geneva Consensus
by Pascal Lamy
As Director-General of the World Trade Organization, Pascal Lamy chaired the Doha Round of negotiations and witnessed a rapidly changing international trade environment. In his first book since leaving the WTO, Lamy reflects on his time there and outlines his views on the significance of open trade in generating global economic growth, reducing poverty and creating jobs around the world. He argues that trade can only act as a motor for growth if the correct mix of domestic and international economic and social policies is in place. The Geneva Consensus describes the ongoing efforts to put this into effect, calling for more effective global governance to tackle the challenges of globalisation. It also examines relationships between trade and the key social, economic and political issues of our time.

The Correspondence of Charles Darwin
Edited by Frederick Burkhardt, James Secord, The Editors of the Darwin Correspondence Project
This volume is part of the definitive edition of letters written by and to Charles Darwin, the most celebrated naturalist of the nineteenth century. Darwin depended on correspondence to collect data from all over the world, and to discuss his emerging ideas with scientific colleagues, many of whom he never met in person. This volume will provide general readers with texts of more than 500 letters Darwin wrote and received in 1873, the year he received reactions to his book on human and animal expression, and did groundbreaking work on insectivorous plants.

How the Snake Lost its Legs
by Lewis I. Held, Jr
How did the zebra really get its stripes, and the giraffe its long neck? What is the science behind camel humps, leopard spots, and other animal oddities? Such questions have fascinated us for centuries, but the expanding field of evo-devo (evolutionary developmental biology) is now providing, for the first time, a wealth of insights and answers. Taking inspiration from Kipling’s ‘Just So Stories’, this book weaves emerging insights from evo-devo into a narrative that provides startling explanations for the origin and evolution of traits across the animal kingdom. Held’s unique and engaging style makes this narrative both enlightening and entertaining, guiding students and researchers through even complex concepts and encouraging a fuller understanding of the latest developments in the field.
