"Gripping...
Easily our fullest, richest, most panoramic
history of the subject. - The New York Times
Book Review
In the winter of
1918, at the height of World War I, history's
most lethal influenza virus erupted in an army
camp in Kansas, moved east with American troops,
then exploded, killing as many as 100 million
people worldwide. It killed more people in
twenty-four weeks than AIDS has killed in
twenty-four years, more in a year than the Black
Death killed in a century..."

a compelling and scary read. - The San Diego

THE BEST I COULD
Subhas Anandan
Retail Price: N.a.
Our Price: S$25.20
(incl. GST)
Format: Paperback
ISBN: 9789812614575
Publisher: Marshall Cavendish |

"Even
the most heinous offender deserves a proper trial.
The Best I Could
provides a good insight into the criminal mind.
Writing for the man in the street, Subhas Anandan,
one of Singapore's top criminal lawyers, tells tales
of not only some of the island's most heinous
crimes, but also of the criminals behind the crimes.
Some of the characters are as fascinating as the
author himself, and Subhas shows there is some good
in the worst of them. He has not only dealt with
them as clients and outside prison walls, but has
also lived with many of them during his 10 months of
incarceration without trial after being wrongfully
accused of being the leader of a notorious criminal
gang. His insights into prison life also make for an
absorbing read..." |

THE BLACK SWAN
The Impact of the Highly
Improbable
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Retail Price: N.a.
Our Price: S$20.90 (incl. GST)
Format: Paperback
ISBN: 9780141034591
Publisher: Penguin Books |
| "This
book is all about Black Swans: the random events
that underlie our lives, from bestsellers to
world disasters. Their impact is huge; they're
nearly impossible to predict; yet after they
happen we always try to rationalize them. A
rallying cry to ignore the 'experts', The Black
Swan shows us how to stop trying to predict
everything and take advantage of uncertainty...
Taleb is a
bouncy and even exhilarating guide... I came to
relish what he said, and even develop a sneaking
affection for him as a person. - Will Self,
Independent on Sunday
A fascinating
study of how we are regularly taken for suckers
by the unexpected. - Larry Elliot, Guardian
An
idiosyncratically brilliant new book. - Neil
Ferguson, Sunday Telegraph" |

HOW THE WORLD WORKS
A Brief Survey of International
Relations
Russell Bova
Retail Price: N.a.
Our Price: S$83.00
Format: Paperback
ISBN: 9780321410009
Publisher: Longman |
|
"How the World Works builds on
students' instincts about current world events
and develops them into a more systematic and
enduring understanding. Introducing each of the
field's major theories, this brief text
demonstrates how different conceptual tools are
used to interpret patterns in international
relations. How the World Works not only
grounds students in the essentials of
international relations but also helps students
use them to see past the headlines...
How the World Works is a near perfect
introduction to world politics. It offers
concise, well-organized coverage of basic
topics, but it is the explication of the
principal theories that is particularly
commendable. The text is written in a lucid
style that I believe students will find easy to
read and will get them thinking critically about
using theory to analyze world politics. -
William Jackson, Miami University" |

"Balram, the White Tiger, was born in a
backwater village on the River Ganges, the son
of a rickshaw-puller. He works in a teashop,
crushing coal and wiping tables, but nurses a
dream of escape. When he learns that a rich
village landlord needs a chauffeur, he takes his
opportunity, and is soon on his way to Delhi
behind the wheel of a Honda. Amid the
cockroaches and call-centres, the 36,000,004
gods, the slums, the shopping malls, and the
crippling traffic jams, Balram learns of a new
morality at the heart of a new India. Driven by
desire to better himself, he comes to see how
the Tiger might escape his cage…
[An] extraordinary
and brilliant first novel... At first, this
novel seems like a straightforward
pulled-up-by-your-bootstraps tale, albeit given
a dazzling twist by the narrator's sharp and
satirical eye for the realities of life for
India's poor... But as the narrative draws for
the reader further in, and darkens, it becomes
clear that Adiga is playing a bigger game... -
Sunday Times
Blazingly
savage and brilliant… What Adiga lifts the lid
on is also inexorably true: not a single detail
in this novel rings false or feels confected.'
