The falling gyre that transfigured the Earth changed us too. You thought we were crazy. You thought we were alone.A universe empty to us.When we understood differently, you refused to. You tried to explain away the transmissions, but once we heard them, once we saw those alien images, once our planet was reduced and forced to reform, anarchy A divide that became one sided and soon the ones like me had to make a decision.The many chose to ignore and live with ignorance in their hearts. We few chose differently.We chose to seek. We knew things would fall apart.It took two secluded decades for us to build the ships. Ten times four million of us could have come, but we could not find enough willing to explore: the first alien species and us without wonder. The creature's transmissions show us their lives, their location, and their love of Lucy.A wonderful and surprising sci-fi meets mythology novella, "Radio Sphere" reveals the shy, maladjusted Elizabeth into the leader she must become amidst the dying, surreal landscape of Earth modified by a deranged alien.Like others of their generation, she struggles to find meaning in the madness around her. She lives alone, until one day George, a young man seeking friendship, stumbles into her. Together they will leave the relative safety of Boston, seeking answers.If you can hear me then you must be alive. You're alive, right? That's good. There aren't many of us left. The water is looking at me again and I might need you.The blue in the sky has burnt away and now it's all brown, everything is brown, past, present, and future. I don't know what I'm going to do. You'll be my friend, right? Just us, in this whole big world. Two hundred years into a post-apocalyptic world, humanity struggles with diminished resources and shrinking ambitions. Radiation has poisoned minds as well as matter, and people are running out of the critical supplies of civilization.Meanwhile, a mysterious alien race observes the ruins of humanity and tries to make sense of what it sees.Something has waited for 200 years to provide all the answers. Will Elizabeth and George survive their journey into the forgotten past? Or are some questions better left unasked?
Long ago, Esis was created. A Tower was established. A Wall was built. Men and women search earnestly for the truth. But in Oldaem, the truth is not easy to find. The Shepherds, once the protectors of Oldaem, have lost sight of their purpose and discarded their integrity. All is not as it seems. Scandal dominates the once proud government of Oldaem. Deception lies around every corner. In the midst of the chaos a Shepherd apprentice searches for acceptance and belonging. A son looks for his missing father and a sister seeks her lost brother. Two prisoners long for freedom. A princess seeks to understand the motivation behind her actions. Three friends search for meaning and purpose while facing impossible obstacles. A dark presence has entered Esis. The time of the prophecies is drawing near. And as war and prejudice distract the minds of Oldaem's weary citizens, the force of light relentlessly pursues them.

South Asia in World Politics offers a comprehensive introduction to the politics and international relations of South Asia, a key area encompassing the states of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. While U.S. interest has long been sporadic and reactive, 9/11 alerted Washington that paying only fitful attention to one of the world's most volatile and populous regions was a recipe for everyday instability, repeated international crises, major and minor wars, and conditions so chronically unsettled that they continue to provide a fertile breeding ground for transnational Islamic terrorism. Exploring the many facets of this dynamic region, the book also assesses U.S. policy toward Afghanistan and explains the importance of Bangladesh and Pakistan, two of only a handful of Islamic states with significant track records as democracies.

Spectacle is usually considered a superficial form of politics, which tries to distract and deceive a passive audience. It is difficult to see how this type of politics could be reconciled with the democratic requirement of active and informed agency. Rethinking the Spectacle re-examines the tension between spectacle and political agency in our hyper-mediated digital society. Devin Penner uses the theories and practices of Guy Debord and the Situationist International as a point of departure, offering both a critical review of Situationist ideas and a way to develop their radical democratic potential in the current political climate. Emphasizing the importance of thinking about the connection between spectacle and broader democratic processes, Rethinking the Spectacle also looks at various models of social and political organization and includes an in-depth assessment of the 2011 Occupy movement. Ultimately, Rethinking the Spectacle concludes that properly conceived spectacle can in fact mobilize the public for egalitarian purposes.
