Adventures of the Symbolic
Columbia University Press 2013; US$ 49.99Marxism?s collapse in the twentieth century profoundly altered the style and substance of Western European radical thought. To build a more robust form of democratic theory and action, prominent theorists moved to reject revolution, abandon class for more fragmented models of social action, and elevate the political over the social. Acknowledging... more...
French Foreign Legion Paratroops
Osprey Publishing 2013; US$ 14.95The decision, in Spring 1948, to form two battalions of Foreign Legion paratroopers was prompted by the requirement for enlarged airborne forces in the First Indochina War (1946), and the healthy recruitment then employed by the Legion.

D-Day Fortifications in Normandy
Osprey Publishing 2013; US$ 13.95German defenses along the Normandy beaches were part of the larger Atlantic Wall fortifications designed to defend Fortress Europe.

The Party of Humanity
Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group 2013; US$ 21.95THE ENLIGHTENMENT has long been the victim of uninformed or hostile criticisms. Even so respected a source as the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary defines the Enlightenment as ?shallow and pretentious intellectualism, unreasonable contempt for authority and tradition,? thus collecting in one sentence most of our current prejudices. In this provocative... more...
Tragic Muse
Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group 2013; US$ 30.00Rachel Felix (1821-58), the homely daughter of poor Jewish peddlers, was the first stage actress to achieve international stardom - and the last person one would have expected to resurrect the cultural patrimony of France.
