From the reign of Tsar Nicholas II to the brutal cult of Stalin to the ebullient, uncertain days of perestroika, nowhere has the inextricable relationship between politics and culture been more starkly illustrated than in twentieth-century Russia.

Here is Tolstoy, who used his godlike place among the Russian people to rail against the autocracy, even as he eschewed violence; Gorky, the first native writer to openly welcome the...

Forget the sprawling suburban mansion with tennis court and swimming pool–from New York to Los Angeles, Miami to Chicago, the visionary home owners featured within these pages have created legendary, livable residences right in the heart of the city. From an artist’s warren of studios in New York City–crowned by a magnificent rooftop garden draped with wisteria arbors–to a 16,000-square-foot château in Chicago with a master bedroom created from a former ballroom, these spaces are truly spectacular. They are also warm, friendly, and original. In short, they are real-life homes–but with many more rooms and amenities than most urban dwellings. "Majestic Metropolitan Living" offers a tour through these unique and beautifully...
A gangster is murdered during a blistering Manhattan heat wave. City cop Andy Rusch is under pressure to solve the crime and captivated by the victim`s beautiful girlfriend. But it is difficult to catch a killer, let alone get the girl, in crazy streets crammed full of people. The planet`s population has exploded. The 35 million inhabitants of New York City run their TVs off pedal power, riot for water, loot and trample for lentil `steaks` and are controlled by sinister barbed wire dropped from the sky. Written in 1966 and set in 1999, "Make Room! Make Room!" is a witty and unnerving story about stretching the earth`s resources, and the human spirit, to breaking point.

As the political forum moved from Edwardian smoking rooms to an increasingly democratic Westminster, the people of Britain experimented with extreme ideas as they struggled to answer the question `How should we live?` Socialism? Fascism? Feminism? Meanwhile, fads such as eugenics, vegetarianism and nudism...
