Paperback. Condition: Good. Football has reinvented itself. As television money has poured into the game, the traditional working-class fans have poured out - not by choice, but by economic necessity. According to those in charge of the game the football hooligan has at last been eliminated from the landscape. But how true is this much-vaunted claim? Martin King, author of Hoolifan, brings his story up to date in The Naughty Nineties. Ironically, he finds that football hooligans now really are in the minority but they are far more dangerous and committed than ever before.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The modern world began on May 29, 1919. In this provocative and sweeping chronicle of 20th century history, acclaimed historian Paul Johnson argues that the confirmation of Einstein's theory of relativity set in motion a chain of events that replaced moral absolutes with a destructive new era of moral relativism. This powerful work of intellectual history traces how the ideas of Marx, Freud, and Einstein were tragically twisted into justifications for the terrifying rise of totalitarianism. Johnson uncovers the horrifying consequences of social engineering, from Lenin's and Stalin's brutal experiments to the collectivist ideologies that swept the globe. Spanning the decades from the 1920s to the 1990s, Modern Times Revised Edition is a monumental work of modern history that challenges our understanding of a century shaped by gangster-statesmen and secular ideologies. This monumental work of political and intellectual history offers a stunning re-evaluation of our era, revealing: A Relativistic World: How the confirmation of Einstein's theories in 1919 shattered old certainties and accidentally unleashed an age of moral relativism that shaped the century. The First Despotic Utopias: A stunning analysis of Lenin, Mussolini, and the rise of the first "gangster-statesmen" who sought to build heaven on earth through the hell of the police state. Legitimacy in Decadence: An examination of the fragile democracies of the 1920s and '30s, and how their internal weaknesses--and the emergence of Hitler--paved the way for catastrophe. Experimenting with Half Mankind: The disastrous consequences of large-scale social engineering, from Stalin's collectivization to the collectivist ideologies that swept the post-colonial world. The Recovery of Freedom: A sweeping account of the post-war world, the failures of the collectivist seventies, and the resurgence of individual liberty in the final decades of the 20th century.…

Hardback. Condition: Fair. ASK ANY MAN. If you can get him to admit it, he'll probably tell you that he would like to be made love to almost as much as being a good lover. In the past, it is the man who has been responsible for not only the lovemaking, but the romance: candlelight, flowers, music, and tenderness. How to Make Love to a Man, a classic bestseller, is the first book to focus on men's sexual and emotional needs, and to talk to today's woman who would like to be an active partner but doesn't quite know how. More than a manual for having sex (though it is that too), this is a guide to the art of making love. The author, after interviewing doctors, sex therapists, women, and most important, more than 200 men, has been able to understand men's deepest emotional needs. The author discusses what men find sexy in a woman; how to show a man that you are interested, how to get a man to share his emotional and sexual needs, how to enhance sex through a massage, touching, and improved timing, and much more. Whether married or single, the reader will gain new insight on making whole love--developing the attitude and the understanding that make the love act complete and meaningful. …

Hardback. Condition: Good. From century to century, the meaning of modernity constantly evolves. In this insightful and fascinating book, Paul Johnson argues that modern times as we know them began on May 29, 1919, when photographs of a solar eclipse confirmed the truth of Einstein's theory of relativity. This scientific revelation literally redefined how humanity sees the universe. From there, Johnson takes students on a whirlwind tour of the 20th century. With his trademark wit and intelligence, Johnson explores the impact of psychoanalysis, Marxism and existentialism, major personalities like Roosevelt, Gandhi and John F. Kennedy, and events ranging from the Russian Revolution to the end of the Cold War. Incisive, stimulating and frequently controversial, Modern Times combines fact, anecdote, incident and portrait in a comprehensive analysis of how the modern age came into being and where it is headed. Paul Johnson is the author of A History of the American People, A History of the Jews, A History of the English People, Intellectuals, and The Birth of the Modern. He lives in London. A latter-day Mencken, Johnson is witty, gritty, and compulsively readable. -- Foreign Affairs.…
