422067Penguin Books Ltd. Hardcover. Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. Book jacket is slightly worn otherwise in great condition - inside pages appear unread.From the acclaimed historian of global empire the dramatic story of how steam power reshaped our cities and our seas and forged a new world order Steam power transformed our world initiating the complex resource-devouring industrial system the consequences of which we live with today. It revolutionized work and production but also the ease and cost of movement over land and water. The result was to throw open vast areas of the world to the rampaging expansion of Europeans and Americans on a scale previously unimaginable.Unlocking the World is the captivating history of the great port cities which emerged as the bridgeheads of this new steam-driven economy reshaping not just the trade and industry of the regions around them but their culture and politics as well. They were the agents of what we now call 'globalization' but their impact and influence and the reactions they provoked were far from predictable. Nor were they immune to the great upheavals in world politics across the 'steam century'. This book is global history at its very best. Packed with fascinating case histories from New Orleans to Montreal Bombay to Singapore Calcutta to Shanghai individual stories and original ideas Darwin's book allows us for better or worse to see the modern age taking shape.

RAFFAELLO CORTINA 2001 COLLANA SCIENZA E IDEE DIRETTA DA GIULIO GIORELLO TRADUZIONE DI MARIA GREGORIO. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: INTONSO, PERFETTO. Chi non ha mai visto le rane diventare grosse come buoi, i pavoni far vibrare la loro ruota o i politici posare per un manifesto elettorale ignora i poteri dell'apparenza. Insetti e orchidee, uomini e pesci rossi, tutte le specie si mettono in mostra, si imbellettano si travestono. L'immagine non cessa mai di imporre le sue leggi, si tratti di sedurre per garantirsi un buon successo riproduttivo, di camuffarsi per sfuggire al predatore o di intimorire per difendere il territorio. Questa inquietante passeggiata biologica - in compagnia di lucciole e scimpanzé, di giovinette imporporite e furtivi aeroplani - mostra a tutto tondo i meccanismi della simulazione, rivelando che la menzogna non è prerogativa unica dell'essere umano.
