E-book The Last Man Who Knew Everything
No one has given the polymath Thomas Young (1773–1829) the all-round examination he so richly deserves—until now. Celebrated biographer Andrew Robinson portrays a man who solved mystery after mystery in the face of ridicule and rejection, and never sought fame.

Otherwise, how to explain why Botswana has become one of the fastest growing countries in the world, while other African nations, such as Zimbabwe, the Congo, and Sierra Leone, are mired in poverty and violence?

E-book Airport Governance Toolkit
Variations in national and airport-specific governance arrangements can be justified due to differing local circumstances.

Yet, it has become increasingly apparent that cognition and emotion often inter…
