Stuart Bousel's Pastorella is an acerbic, witty love/hate letter to small theater and the artists-idealists to egotists (often the same person)-who keep them alive. Gwen is a recent college graduate who has been cast as Chloe in a small theater production of Tom Stoppard's Arcadia. Hanging around backstage, she befriends Warren, who is playing Valentine, and is involved in a stormy romance with Josh, the company's leading man, who announces a few days before opening that he has a "better" opportunity with a touring production of a new musical based on the animated film Fern Gully: The Last Rain Forest. Amidst the antics of fellow cast-mates Cliff, Toby, Bettina, Electra, and Roy, Warren and Josh's relationship implodes, Gwen gets her dream role, and the show, as always, goes on.

But Nate's responsibility to wife and children and lack of enthusiasm for the grind of ordinary life kept him in a cycle of failure in business. His son, who revels in his father's mastery of wit and storytelling, seeks to come to terms with the two sides of the man he both idolizes and sees as a disappointment. This story of their father-son relationship reveals deeper truths about becoming a man.
With a Little Help from Their Friends: The Beatles and the People Who Made Them
A surprising, charming, and kaleidoscopic history of the Beatles, told through 100 people close to them The story of the Beatles is more than just their omnipresent songs and their iconic albums. It's more than the hair, the clothes, the generational defining spirit. It's even more than Paul and John and George and Ringo. The Beatles wouldn't be the Beatles without a little help from their friends. These four legends didn't change the world in isolation; their story has an incredible supporting cast of family, friends, managers, producers, publicists, ex-bandmates, fellow musicians, and more. These somebodies shaped the Fab Four through ambition, power, friendship, heartbreak, tragedy, intrigue, humor, lust, and of course, love. Stuart Maconie's With a Little Help From Their Friends is the epic story of the iconic band through the people who made them, from childhood days in Liverpool through the crucible of Hamburg and on to international superstardom. It's a charming mosaic of a book, a fresh look written with deep knowledge and passion.

A Defense of Rule

A Defense of Rule

Stuart Gray

Oxford University Press Inc
2017
sidottu
At its core, politics is all about relations of rule. Accordingly one of the central preoccupations of political theory is what it means for human beings to rule over one another or share in a process of ruling. While political theorists tend to regard rule as a necessary evil, this book aims to explain how rule need not be understood as anathema to political life. Rather, by looking at some of the earliest traditions of political thought we can rethink rule in ways that evoke stewardship rather than domination. Stuart Gray argues that hierarchical ideas about rule coevolved with political divisions between the human and non-human in western theory. The earliest discernible Greek thought advanced an instrumental relationship between humans and their environment, a position that has persisted into our current age. While this seems a defensible position, Gray points out that such instrumental understandings of the nonhuman world have gotten us into serious trouble, including problems of deforestation, global warming, rising sea levels, species loss, and peak oil. To rethink the concept of rule, A Defense of Rule turns to early Indian political thought that suggests that rule is a relationship predicated on stewardship. The book compares these two traditions of thought in order to suggest that we have a normative duty to the environment, and thus to act in a way that takes the interests of non-human nature into account. Basing his argument on his own original translations of primary sources in ancient Greek and Sanskrit, Gray shows when and how early concepts of rule evolved to justify divisions between the human and nonhuman. In doing so, he argues for a reconsideration of our duties toward the nonhuman natural world.

This work prepares the ground, both for US policy makers and America's allies in Asia, for the time in the not-too-distant future when the United States will no longer be in a position to guarantee the stability of the Asia-Pacific region by its unilateral actions and forward military presence. Arguing that the US-dominated system of Asian security from the Cold war era needs a fundamental transformation over the next ten years, the authors recommend a number of steps the US can take to help develop a moderate multipolar balance of power in Asia.
