Roy Ward Baker

by Geoff Mayer, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard

This book traces the career of Roy Ward Baker, one of the great survivors of the British film and television industry. He directed the landmark British film Morning Departure (1949), worked at Twentieth Century Fox in Hollywood in the early 1950s where he directed Marilyn Monroe's 'breakthrough' film (Don't Bother to Knock), and followed this with a succession of fine films for Rank, culminating in the best version of the Titanic disaster, A Night to Remember in 1958. Yet within three years he was unable to secure a job in the British film industry and he moved to television series such as The Avengers, The Saint and Minder. Later Baker re-emerged as a major director of science-fiction (Quatermass and the Pit) and horror films (Asylum). Geoff Mayer provides an industrial and aesthetic context in which to understand the interrelationship between a skilled classical director and the transformation of the British film industry in the 1950s. ;

Die Unsichtbaren

Eine Insel-Saga

by Roy Jacobsen, Gabriele Haefs, Andreas Brunstermann

Barrøy – so heißt die kleine Insel vor Norwegens atemberaubender Küste, auf der Ingrid aufwächst, fernab der übrigen Welt. Bis eines Tages der mörderische Weltkrieg den verschlafenen Ort einholt: Der Kriegsgefangene Alexander, ein Russe, findet nach einem tragischen Schiffsunglück Zuflucht auf der Insel. Ingrid verliebt sich in den schweigsamen Mann, doch ihre Liebe kann nur kurz währen, bis die deutschen Besatzer Alexander inhaftieren. Neun Monate später bekommt Ingrid eine Tochter. Der Krieg ist nun vorbei, das Land will nichts anderes als vergessen. Doch Ingrid kann Alexander nicht vergessen. Mit Kaja vor den Bauch gebunden, macht sie sich auf die Reise durch ein kriegserschüttertes Land, auf der Suche nach Alexander, ihrer großen Liebe. Roy Jacobsens Insel-Saga erzählt, auch vor dem Hintergrund deutscher Geschichte, mit außergewöhnlichem Sog vom Leben einer Familie in überwältigender Natur, von starken, eigenwilligen Frauen, von Schuld und Kollaboration.

The United States in the Indo-Pacific

Obama's legacy and the Trump Transition

by Inderjeet Parmar, Oliver Turner

This edited volume examines the political, economic and security legacies former US President Barack Obama leaves across Asia and the Pacific, following two terms in office between 2009 and 2017. The aim is to advance our understanding of Obama's style, influence and impact during that time and the regional footprint he leaves behind. Moreover, it is to inform upon the endurance of, and prospects for, that legacy after two years of the Presidency of Donald Trump. The volume uniquely explores US engagement with key Indo-Pacific states including China, India and Japan; multilateral institutions and organisations such the East Asia Summit and ASEAN; and issue areas such as regional security, politics and diplomacy, and the economy. It does so with contributions from high-profile scholars and policy practitioners including Michael Mastanduno, Bruce Cumings, Maryanne Kelton, Robert Sutter, and Sumit Ganguly.

Soil Hydrology, Land Use and Agriculture

Measurement and Modelling

by Edited by Manoj K Shukla.

Agriculture is strongly affected by changes in soil hydrology as well as by changes in land use and management practices and the complex interactions between them. This book aims to expand our knowledge and understanding of these interactions on a watershed scale, using soil hydrology models, and to address the consequences of land use and management changes on agriculture from a research perspective. Case studies illustrate the impact of land use and management practices on various soil hydrological parameters under different climates and ecosystems.

Cromwell's major-generals

Godly government during the English Revolution

by Christopher Durston, Peter Lake, Anthony Milton, Jason Peacey, Alexandra Gajda

The first full-scale study of the rule of Cromwell's major-generals over England and Wales during 1655 and 1656. This is a period which had a dramatic impact upon contemporaries and has remained a powerful symbol of military rule down to the present day. Contains chapters on the three most important aspects of the major-generals' work: the collection of the decimation tax; the attempt to improve the security of the regime; and the struggle to build the 'Godly Nation'. Concludes with an investigation of the 1656 election and the major-generals subsequent unexpected fall from power. Fills a major gap in the historiography of Cromwellian England. ;
