Poster for The Five Dysfunctions of a Team.

Acclaimed by the Daily Mail as ''definitive and harrowing'' , this is the final volume of ''The People''s Trilogy'', begun by the Samuel Johnson prize-winning Mao''s Great Famine.After the economic disaster of the Great Leap Forward that claimed tens of millions of lives between 1958 and 1962, an ageing Mao launched an ambitious scheme to shore up his reputation and eliminate those he viewed as a threat to his legacy. The stated goal of the Cultural Revolution was to purge the country of bourgeois, capitalist elements he claimed were threatening genuine communist ideology. But the Chairman also used the Cultural Revolution to turn on his colleagues, some of them longstanding comrades-in-arms, subjecting them to public humiliation, imprisonment and torture.Young students formed Red Guards, vowing to defend the Chairman to the death, but soon rival factions started fighting each other in the streets with semi-automatic weapons in the name of revolutionary purity. As the country descended into chaos, the military intervened, turning China into a garrison state marked by bloody purges that crushed as many as one in fifty people.When the army itself fell victim to the Cultural Revolution, ordinary people used the political chaos to resurrect the marked and hollow out the party''s ideology. In short, they buried Maoism. In-depth interviews and archival research at last give voice to the people and the complex choices they faced, undermining the picture of conformity that is often understood to have characterised the last years of Mao''s regime. By demonstrating that decollectivisation from below was an unintended consequence of a decade of violent purges and entrenched fear, Frank Dikotter casts China''s most tumultuous era in a wholly new light.Written with unprecedented access to previously classified party documents from secret police reports to unexpurgated versions of leadership speeches, this third chapter in Frank Dikotter''s extraordinarily lucid and ground-breaking ''People''s Trilogy'' is a devastating reassessment of the history of the People''s Republic of China.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFor the first time ever, an international coalition of leading researchers, scientists and policymakers has come together to offer a set of realistic and bold solutions to climate change. All of the techniques described here - some well-known, some you may have never heard of - are economically viable, and communities throughout the world are already enacting them. From revolutionizing how we produce and consume food to educating girls in lower-income countries, these are all solutions which, if deployed collectively on a global scale over the next thirty years, could not just slow the earth's warming, but reach drawdown: the point when greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere peak and begin todecline. So what are we waiting for?

Den komparative pædagogik, der er en faglig disciplin under den almene pædagogik, er i disse år genstand for en voksende opmærksomhed. En medvirkende årsag til dette er den økonomiske udvikling, der på den ene side tvinger nationalstaterne ud i større indbyrdes konkurrence og på den anden side stiller krav til øget internationalt samarbejde. Uddannelse er blevet et vigtigt element i denne udvikling. Bogen rummer analyser af sammenligning som metode, af nationalstaten som sammenligningsgenstand og af aktuelle fænomener som globalisering, videnssamfund og internationalt samarbejde. Der lægges op til nye perspektiver på begrebet uddannelse. Thyge Winther-Jensen er magister i pædagogik fra Institut for Teoretisk Pædagogik ved Københavns Universitet. I en årrække var han lektor, senere docent, i pædagogik ved Københavns Universitet. Fra 2002 har han fungeret som professor i international komparativ pædagogik ved Danmarks Pædagogiske Universitet og som leder af Enhed for international komparativ uddannelsesforskning.

Dette er ikke en bilbog i gængs forstand, men mere et stykke danmarkshistorie om produktion, handel, markedsføring og foretagsomhed. Udkommer medio NOVEMBER Erich Karsholt: Dansk bilproduktionBil- og samlefabrikker i det 20. århundrede. BILHISTORIE - INDUSTRIHISTORIE - KULTURHISTORIE - SAMFUNDSHISTORIE Det er en udbredt opfattelse, at der ikke er produceret biler i Danmark… Men det omvendte er realiteterne: Næsten en million biler er det blevet til! Nu kommer bogen der belyser denne side af dansk industrihistorie og bilkultur. Årets julegave til især mænd der interesserer sig for teknik og historie! I de to første årtier af 1900-tallet skete en revolutionerende udvikling af ikke blot selve bilen, men også omkring fremstillingen, der gik fra håndværksmæssig tilvirkning af få enheder til masseproduktion. De danske forsøg på en bilindustri kom ikke over begynderstadiet, før de udenlandske bilfabrikker viste deres styrke. Til gengæld betød bilernes voksende udbredelse at der opstod fordele ved at samle bilerne lokalt. De første var Ford Motor Company (1919) og General Motors (1924). Gennem årene er mere end 40 forskellige bilmærker samlet i Danmark. Samlefabrikkerne havde betydning for industriens udvikling gennem inspiration af amerikansk organisering, men de udenlandske fabrikker måtte også tilpasse sig de danske vilkår, herunder vores arbejdsmarkedsforhold. I mellemkrigsårene blev hovedparten af alle biler til det danske marked samlet herhjemme. Under besættelsen holdt fabrikkerne beskæftigelsen oppe gennem bl.a. fremstilling af gasgeneratorer - og arbejde for besættelsesmagten. I efterkrigstiden voksede produktionen gennem 1950'erne, hvor der også var toldfordele ved at samle bilerne herhjemme, men fabrikkerne var i længden for små og urentable. Samle-fabrikkerne lukkede én efter én op gennem 1960’erne. Den sidste og største dog først i 1974. Der blev i Danmark samlet ca. 920.000 biler. Til sammenligning blev der i sidste århundrede fremstillet ca. 10.000 biler af danske bilmærker. Der er tale om et stykke industrihistorie, der endnu ikke er blevet analyser og beskrevet. Bogen baserer på et stort antal kilder. Bogen indeholder desuden mere end 750 foto og illustrationer. Erich Karsholt: Dansk bilproduktion.

When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius-his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse.Heads of family, state, and other handlers devise a plan for damage control: staging a truce between the two rivals. What at first begins as a fake, Instragramable friendship grows deeper, and more dangerous, than either Alex or Henry could have imagined. Soon Alex finds himself hurtling into a secret romance with a surprisingly unstuffy Henry that could derail the campaign and upend two nations and begs the question: Can love save the world after all? Where do we find the courage, and the power, to be the people we are meant to be? And how can we learn to let our true colors shine through? Casey McQuiston's Red, White & Royal Blue proves: true love isn't always diplomatic.
