Armada A novel by the author of Ready Player One【電子書籍】[ Ernest Cline ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>From the author of <em>Ready Player One</em>, a rollicking alien invasion thriller that embraces and subverts science-fiction conventions as only Ernest Cline could.</strong></p> <p>Zack Lightman has never much cared for reality. He vastly prefers the countless science-fiction movies, books, and videogames he's spent his life consuming. And too often, he catches himself wishing that some fantastic, impossible, world-altering event could arrive to whisk him off on a grand spacefaring adventure.</p> <p>So when he sees the flying saucer, he's sure his years of escapism have finally tipped over into madness.</p> <p>Especially because the alien ship he's staring at is straight out of his favorite videogame, a flight simulator callled *Armada--*in which gamers just happen to be protecting Earth from alien invaders.</p> <p>As impossible as it seems, what Zack's seeing is all too real. And it's just the first in a blur of revlations that will force him to question everything he thought he knew about Earth's history, its future, even his own life--and to play the hero for real, with humanity's life in the balance.</p> <p>But even through the terror and exhilaration, he can't help thinking: Doesn't something about this scenario feel a little bit like...well...fiction?</p> <p>At once reinventing and paying homage to science-fiction classics as only Ernest Cline can, <em>Armada</em> is a rollicking, surprising thriller, a coming-of-age adventure, and an alien invasion tale like nothing you've ever read before.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,565円

Overdressed The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion【電子書籍】[ Elizabeth L. Cline ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>“Overdressed does for T-shirts and leggings what <em>Fast Food Nation</em> did for burgers and fries.”</strong><br /> <strong>ーKatha Pollitt</strong></p> <p>Cheap fashion has fundamentally changed the way most Americans dress. Stores ranging from discounters like Target to traditional chains like JCPenney now offer the newest trends at unprecedentedly low prices. And we have little reason to keep wearing and repairing the clothes we already own when styles change so fast and it’s cheaper to just buy more.</p> <p>Cline sets out to uncover the true nature of the cheap fashion juggernaut. What are we doing with all these cheap clothes? And more important, what are they doing to us, our society, our environment, and our economic well-being?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,252円

War on Peace: The End of Diplomacy and the Decline of American Influence【電子書籍】[ Ronan Farrow ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A book for anyone interested to know more about how the world really works by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ronan Farrow.</strong></p> <p>‘This is one of the most important books of our time.’ Walter Isaacson ‘A masterpiece’ Dan Simpson, Post-Gazette THE NEW YORK TIMES #3 BESTSELLER</p> <p>US foreign policy is undergoing a dire transformation, forever changing America’s place in the world. Institutions of diplomacy and development are bleeding out after deep budget cuts; the diplomats who make America’s deals and protect democratic interests around the world are walking out in droves. Offices across the State Department sit empty, while abroad the military-industrial complex has assumed the work once undertaken by peacemakers. Increasingly, America is a nation that shoots first and asks questions later.</p> <p>In an astonishing journey from the corridors of power in Washington, DC, to some of the most remote and dangerous places on earth ? Afghanistan, Somalia, and North Korea among them acclaimed investigative journalist Ronan Farrow illuminates one of the most consequential and poorly understood changes in American history. His first-hand experience as a former State Department official affords a personal look at some of the last standard bearers of traditional statecraft, including Richard Holbrooke, who made peace in Bosnia and died while trying to do so in Afghanistan.</p> <p>Drawing on newly unearthed documents, and richly informed by rare interviews with warlords, whistle-blowers, and policymakers ? including every living secretary of state from Henry Kissinger to Hillary Clinton to Rex Tillerson ? <em>War on Peace</em> makes a powerful case for an endangered profession. Diplomacy, Farrow argues, has declined after decades of political cowardice, short-sightedness, and outright malice ? but it may just offer a way out of a world at war.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,229円

Empty Planet The Shock of Global Population Decline【電子書籍】[ Darrell Bricker ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>**A <em>SUNDAY TIMES</em> MUST-READ**</strong></p> <p><strong>'Riveting and vitally important' - Steven Pinker</strong><br /> <strong>'A gripping narrative</strong> <strong>of a world on the cusp of profound change' - Anjana Ahuja, <em>New Statesman</em></strong></p> <p><em>Empty Planet</em> offers a radical, provocative argument that the global population will soon begin to decline, dramatically reshaping the social, political and economic landscape.</p> <p>For half a century, statisticians, pundits and politicians have warned that a burgeoning planetary population will soon overwhelm the earth's resources. But a growing number of experts are sounding a different kind of alarm. Rather than growing exponentially, they argue, the global population is headed for a steep decline.</p> <p>Throughout history, depopulation was the product of catastrophe: ice ages, plagues, the collapse of civilizations. This time, however, we're thinning ourselves deliberately, by choosing to have fewer babies than we need to replace ourselves. In much of the developed and developing world, that decline is already underway, as urbanisation, women's empowerment, and waning religiosity lead to smaller and smaller families. In <em>Empty Planet</em>, Ibbitson and Bricker travel from South Florida to Sao Paulo, Seoul to Nairobi, Brussels to Delhi to Beijing, drawing on a wealth of research and firsthand reporting to illustrate the dramatic consequences of this population decline - and to show us why the rest of the developing world will soon join in.</p> <p>They find that a smaller global population will bring with it a number of benefits: fewer workers will command higher wages; good jobs will prompt innovation; the environment will improve; the risk of famine will wane; and falling birthrates in the developing world will bring greater affluence and autonomy for women. But enormous disruption lies ahead, too. We can already see the effects in Europe and parts of Asia, as aging populations and worker shortages weaken the economy and impose crippling demands on healthcare and vital social services. There may be earth-shaking implications on a geopolitical scale as well.</p> <p><em>Empty Planet</em> is a hugely important book for our times. Captivating and persuasive, it is a story about urbanisation, access to education and the empowerment of women to choose their own destinies. It is about the secularisation of societies and the vital role that immigration has to play in our futures.</p> <p>Rigorously researched and deeply compelling, <em>Empty Planet</em> offers a vision of a future that we can no longer prevent - but that we can shape, if we choose to.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,063円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**The instant <em>New York Times</em> and <em>Wall Street Journal</em> bestseller</p> <p>A groundbreaking plan to prevent and reverse Alzheimer’s Disease that fundamentally changes how we understand cognitive decline.**</p> <p>Everyone knows someone who has survived cancer, but until now no one knows anyone who has survived Alzheimer's Disease.</p> <p>In this paradigm shifting book, Dale Bredesen, MD, offers real hope to anyone looking to prevent and even reverse Alzheimer's Disease and cognitive decline. Revealing that AD is not one condition, as it is currently treated, but three, <em>The End of Alzheimer’s</em> outlines 36 metabolic factors (micronutrients, hormone levels, sleep) that can trigger "downsizing" in the brain. The protocol shows us how to rebalance these factors using lifestyle modifications like taking B12, eliminating gluten, or improving oral hygiene.</p> <p>The results are impressive. Of the first ten patients on the protocol, nine displayed significant improvement with 3-6 months; since then the protocol has yielded similar results with hundreds more. Now, <em>The End of Alzheimer’s</em> brings new hope to a broad audience of patients, caregivers, physicians, and treatment centers with a fascinating look inside the science and a complete step-by-step plan that fundamentally changes how we treat and even think about AD.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,723円

<p><strong>“[<em>The Rising Sun</em>] is quite possibly the most readable, yet informative account of the Pacific war.”ー<em>Chicago Sun-Times</em></strong></p> <p>This Pulitzer Prize?winning history of World War II chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of the Japanese empire, from the invasion of Manchuria and China to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

In his Foreword, Toland says that if we are to draw any conclusion from <em>The Rising Sun</em>, it is “that there are no simple lessons in history, that it is human nature that repeats itself, not history.”</p> <p><strong>“Unbelievably rich . . . readable and exciting . . .The best parts of [Toland’s] book are not the battle scenes but the intimate view he gives of the highest reaches of Tokyo politics.”ー<em>Newsweek</em></strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,351円

The End of Alzheimer's Program The First Protocol to Enhance Cognition and Reverse Decline at Any Age【電子書籍】[ Dale Bredesen ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**The instant <em>New York Times</em> bestseller</p> <p>The <em>New York Times</em> Best Selling author of <em>The End of Alzheimer's</em> lays out a specific plan to help everyone prevent and reverse cognitive decline or simply maximize brainpower.**</p> <p>In <em>The End of Alzheimer's</em> Dale Bredesen laid out the science behind his revolutionary new program that is the first to both prevent and reverse symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Now he lays out the detailed program he uses with his own patients. Accessible and detailed, it can be tailored to anyone's needs and will enhance cognitive ability at any age.</p> <p>What we call Alzheimer's disease is actually a protective response to a wide variety of insults to the brain: inflammation, insulin resistance, toxins, infections, and inadequate levels of nutrients, hormones, and growth factors. Bredesen starts by having us figure out which of these insults we need to address and continues by laying out a personalized lifestyle plan. Focusing on the Ketoflex 12/3 Diet, which triggers ketosis and lets the brain restore itself with a minimum 12-hour fast, Dr. Bredesen drills down on restorative sleep, targeted supplementation, exercise, and brain training. He also examines the tricky question of toxic exposure and provides workarounds for many difficult problems. The takeaway is that we do not need to do the program perfectly but will see tremendous results if we can do it well enough.</p> <p>With inspiring stories from patients who have reversed cognitive decline and are now thriving, this book shifts the treatment paradigm and offers a new and effective way to enhance cognition as well as unprecedented hope to sufferers of this now no longer deadly disease.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,880円

Class, Politics, and the Decline of Deference in England, 1968-2000【電子書籍】[ Florence Sutcliffe-Braithwaite ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In late twentieth-century England, inequality was rocketing, yet some have suggested that the politics of class was declining in significance, while others argue that class identities lost little power. Neither interpretation is satisfactory: class remained important to 'ordinary' people's narratives about social change and their own identities throughout the period 1968-2000, but in changing ways. Using self-narratives drawn from a wide range of sources - the raw materials of sociological studies, transcripts from oral history projects, Mass Observation, and autobiography - the book examines class identities and narratives of social change between 1968 and 2000, showing that by the end of the period, class was often seen as an historical identity, related to background and heritage, and that many felt strict class boundaries had blurred quite profoundly since 1945. Class snobberies 'went underground', as many people from all backgrounds began to assert that what was important was authenticity, individuality, and ordinariness. In fact, Sutcliffe-Braithwaite argues that it is more useful to understand the cultural changes of these years through the lens of the decline of deference, which transformed people's attitudes towards class, and towards politics. The study also examines the claim that Thatcher and New Labour wrote class out of politics, arguing that this simple - and highly political - narrative misses important points. Thatcher was driven by political ideology and necessity to try to dismiss the importance of class, while the New Labour project was good at listening to voters - particularly swing voters in marginal seats - and echoing back what they were increasingly saying about the blurring of class lines and the importance of ordinariness. But this did not add up to an abandonment of a majoritarian project, as New Labour reoriented their political project to emphasize using the state to empower the individual.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 14,114円

The Rise and Fall of the EAST How Exams, Autocracy, Stability, and Technology Brought China Success, and Why They Might Lead to Its Decline【電子書籍】[ Yasheng Huang, Ph.D. ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The long history of China’s relationship between stability, diversity, and prosperity, and how its current leadership threatens this delicate balance</strong></p> <p><strong>“Riveting.”ーTunku Varadarajan, <em>Wall Street Journal</em></strong></p> <p><strong>A <em>Foreign Affairs</em> Best Book of 2023</strong></p> <p>Chinese society has been shaped by the interplay of the EASTーexams, autocracy, stability, and technologyーfrom ancient times through the present. Beginning with the Sui dynasty’s introduction of the civil service exam, known as <em>Keju</em>, in 587 CEーand continuing through the personnel management system used by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)ーChinese autocracies have developed exceptional tools for homogenizing ideas, norms, and practices. But this uniformity came with a huge downside: stifled creativity.</p> <p>Yasheng Huang shows how China transitioned from dynamism to extreme stagnation after the <em>Keju</em> was instituted. China’s most prosperous periods, such as during the Tang dynasty (618?907) and under the reformist CCP, occurred when its emphasis on scale (the size of bureaucracy) was balanced with scope (diversity of ideas).</p> <p>Considering China’s remarkable success over the past half-century, Huang sees signs of danger in the political and economic reversals under Xi Jinping. The CCP has again vaulted conformity above new ideas, reverting to the <em>Keju</em> model that eventually led to technological decline. It is a lesson from China’s own history, Huang argues, that Chinese leaders would be wise to take seriously.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,095円

Reflections on the Decline of Science in England, and on Some of Its Causes Unveiling the Stagnation of Scientific Advancement in 19th Century England【電子書籍】[ Charles Babbage ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Reflections on the Decline of Science in England, and on Some of Its Causes," Charles Babbage presents a riveting analysis of the stagnation of scientific progress during the early 19th century in England. Combining empirical observations with rigorous argumentation, Babbage critiques institutional barriers and a prevailing disdain for scientific inquiry that hindered advancement. His literary style, marked by clarity and precision, serves to engage both the lay reader and the scholar, as he delves into historical, social, and educational factors contributing to this decline. The work stands as a significant contextual piece within the broader dialogue of the Industrial Revolution and the Enlightenment, inviting readers to reflect critically on the dynamics of knowledge production. As a mathematician, inventor, and philosopher, Babbage's pioneering ideas, particularly regarding computation, profoundly influenced the development of modern computing. His experiences as a member of the Royal Society and a keen observer of scientific communities shaped his perspective on the complexities of scientific progress, which he articulates compellingly in this book. Babbage's advocacy for reform in scientific education and practice reveals his commitment to nurturing a culture of innovation in England. This provocative work is essential reading for scholars of science and technology studies, historians, and anyone interested in the interplay between society and scientific evolution. Babbage'??s insights are not only historically significant but remain remarkably relevant, encouraging contemporary readers to examine the ethical implications of science and innovation in today's society.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

Rethinking the Decline of China's Qing Dynasty Imperial Activism and Borderland Management at the Turn of the Nineteenth Century【電子書籍】[ Daniel McMahon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The many instances of regional insurgency and unrest that erupted on China’s borderlands at the turn of the nineteenth century are often regarded by scholars as evidence of government disability and the incipient decline of the imperial Qing dynasty. This book, based on extensive original research, argues that, on the contrary, the response of the imperial government went well beyond pacification and reconstruction, and demonstrates that the imperial political culture was dynamic, innovative and capable of confronting contemporary challenges. The author highlights in particular the Jiaqing Reforms of 1799, which enabled national reformist ideology, activist-oriented administrative education, the development of specialised frontier officials, comprehensive borderland rehabilitation, and the sharing of borderland administration best practice between different regions. Overall, the book shows that the Qing regime had sustained vigour, albeit in difficult and changing circumstances.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 10,317円

The Despot's Accomplice How the West is Aiding and Abetting the Decline of Democracy【電子書籍】[ Brian Klaas ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>For the first time since the end of the Cold War, the world is steadily becoming less democratic. The true culprits are dictators and counterfeit democrats. But, argues Klaas, the West is also an accomplice, inadvertently assaulting pro-democracy forces abroad as governments in Washington, London and Brussels chase pyrrhic short-term economic and security victories. Friendly fire from Western democracies against democracy abroad is too high a price to pay for a myopic foreign policy that is ultimately making the world less prosperous, stable and democratic. <em>The Despot's Accomplice</em> draws on years of extensive interviews on the frontlines of the global struggle for democracy, from a poetry-reading, politician-kidnapping general in Madagascar to Islamist torture victims in Tunisia, Belarusian opposition activists tailed by the KGB, West African rebels, and tea-sipping members of the Thai junta. Cumulatively, their stories weave together a tale of a broken system at the root of democracy's global retreat.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,642円

The Rise and Decline of the Medici Bank, 1397-1494【電子書籍】[ Prof. Raymond de Roover ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The roots of modern capitalism go back to the Italian banking system of the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance. In the fifteenth century, the Medici Bank succeeded in overshadowing its competitors, the Bardi and the Peruzzi, who were the giants of the fourteenth century, and grew into a vast establishment with branches in most of the large cities of Western Europe. A study of its operations is essential to an understanding of the economic conditions in Europe in the fifteenth century.<br /> From a careful study of pertinent documents, including a set of libri segreti (confidential ledgers) discovered in 1950, Professor de Roover has reconstructed the details of the bank's organization and operating methods; its loan policies, which reflected the Church's doctrine on usury; its trading and industrial investments; its roles within the Florentine gild system and tax structure; and its activities as financial agent of the Church. He covers every aspect of the bank's history, from its early years under the management of Giovanni di Bicci de' Medici to its collapse with the expulsion of the Medici from Florence.<br /> "An invaluable contribution to the economic history of the period….A splendid book."ーHarry A. Miskimin, The American Economic Review<br /> "The most important work in English on a medieval or Renaissance bank."ーThe Economist<br /> "The best book ever written on the medieval banking system."ーJohn T. Noonan, Jr., Harvard Law Review<br /> "The most authoritative treatment of its subject in any language."ーRondo Cameron, The Accounting Review</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 866円

The Better Angels of Our Nature Why Violence Has Declined【電子書籍】[ Steven Pinker ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**“If I could give each of you a graduation present, it would be thisーthe most inspiring book I've ever read."<br /> ーBill Gates (May, 2017)</p> <p>Selected by <em>The New York Times Book Review</em> as a Notable Book of the Year**</p> <p><strong>The author of <em>Rationality</em> and <em>Enlightenment Now</em> offers a provocative and surprising history of violence.</strong></p> <p>Faced with the ceaseless stream of news about war, crime, and terrorism, one could easily think we live in the most violent age ever seen. Yet as New York Times bestselling author Steven Pinker shows in this startling and engaging new work, just the opposite is true: violence has been diminishing for millenia and we may be living in the most peaceful time in our species's existence. For most of history, war, slavery, infanticide, child abuse, assassinations, programs, gruesom punishments, deadly quarrels, and genocide were ordinary features of life. But today, Pinker shows (with the help of more than a hundred graphs and maps) all these forms of violence have dwindled and are widely condemned. How has this happened?</p> <p>This groundbreaking book continues Pinker's exploration of the esesnce of human nature, mixing psychology and history to provide a remarkable picture of an increasingly nonviolent world. The key, he explains, is to understand our intrinsic motives--the inner demons that incline us toward violence and the better angels that steer us away--and how changing circumstances have allowed our better angels to prevail. Exploding fatalist myths about humankind's inherent violence and the curse of modernity, this ambitious and provocative book is sure to be hotly debated in living rooms and the Pentagon alike, and will challenge and change the way we think about our society.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,565円
