The Hugo-nominated, astounding 10-volume, 1,924-page graphic novel adaptation of Cixin Liu’s international bestseller THE THREE-BODY PROBLEM.An investigation into a spate of apparent suicides amongst the world’s top scientists leads to a mysterious online game set in a virtual world ruled by the intractable and unpredictable interaction of its three suns. This is the Three-Body Problem and it is the key to everything: the key to the scientists' deaths, the key to a conspiracy that spans light-years and the key to the extinction-level threat humanity now faces.First published in China in 2008., The Three-Body Problem is the 21st Century's greatest work of science fiction. It was translated in English in 2014 and won the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 2015. It has since been translated into 32 languages and has sold millions of copies all over the world."The Three-Body Problem was originally published as a novel, but while I was writing it, I began to suspect that words weren’t necessarily the best way of telling a science fiction story. When we use words to describe the world, we rely on shared memories of reality to conjure a picture in the reader’s mind. But in the realms of science fiction, where there are many things that have never appeared in the real world, words alone are not always enough to accurately, or vividly, transmit the author’s imagination. A decade after its original publication, "Three-Body" gains new life in these pages. I am now convinced that the graphic novel provides the broadest possible canvas for science fiction. Regardless of whether you have read the original or not, this version of "The Three-Body Problem" will be a brand new reading experience for you." - CIXIN LIU, 2024This special edition includes Three-Body archive material: including: transcript of Ye Wenjie interview by the Beijing PSB Criminal Investigation Detachment; an abstract of Ye Wenjie's paper in Astrophysics Review; partially decrypted files sized from ETO, and much more.

This book addresses the question of metaphor in Nietzsche. It provides an unusual reading of Nietzsche's ideas (particularly of the central concept of "will to power") and an incisive method for investigating his style. Developing work on Nietzsche undertaken by Derrida and the post-structuralists, Kofman shows how Nietzsche's style influences his ideas and how these ideas are to be understood. Since its first publication in France in 1972, this work has been a major influence on readings of Nietzsche and this English-language translation should be widely welcomed. Sarah Kofman's translated works include "The Enigma of Women: Women in Freud's Writings" (1985), "The Childhood of Art" (1988) and "Freud and Fiction" (1991).

From Alex Aster, the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of the Lightlark series, comes her first adult romantasy. Enter the world of Starside, where swords wield magic and power is not inherited... but claimed.

Hundreds of years ago, a brutal war split a land in two. Starside is the realm of magic and immortals –the descendants of the gods, living in a power-rich paradise. Stormside is where mortals fight for scraps of that magic.

Every fifty years, the gates between them open, and fifty challengers are allowed to journey across Starside on a deadly quest to access a pool of magic that can heal, grant wealth, or extend life. Everyone has their reasons for entering, but Aris has only one: vengeance. As a child, a goddess set fire to her village, killing her family. Aris isn’t after the gods’ magic – she’s going to kill them.

First, she must survive the Culling, the king’s deadly competition to choose his fifty challengers. An orphaned blacksmith’s apprentice, Aris doesn’t have the superior weapons of the heirs from the Great Houses. But the greatest swords – ones that contain power – are not inherited or bought, they are claimed, by both sides. And when Aris claims a great sword, it makes her not just a real competitor – but a target.

Getting past the gates is only the beginning. Starside is deadlier than it seems. If the ancient creatures, magic-wielding beasts, and bloodthirsty immortals weren’t dangerous enough, a new peril has even immortals fearing what rises from the ground at night. With a blade most would kill to claim, Aris can’t trust anyone. Especially not Harlan Raker, the merciless and mysterious king’s guard who betrayed her years ago – and who may now be the key to her survival.

But Aris is hiding a secret tied to her family’s death. And when it’s revealed, not even the gods will be able to stop what’s coming…

A vivid, human and radical history of one of the most powerful revolutionary movements of the twentieth century - told through the lives and in the voices of countless forgotten men and women**THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**‘Lush, high-tempo, strikingly poignant ... The relevance for our present moment is impossible to ignore’ Guardian‘Thrillingly energetic, delightful, vivid’ New York Times Book Review‘Reading it feels revolutionary’ Naomi KleinHere Where Live Is Our Country is the story of a revolutionary movement – the Jewish Bund – which played a part in nearly every major conflict in Eastern Europe from 1900-1945, but still remains an almost unknown part of twentieth-century history. The movement’s central philosophy of “herenes” – the belief that Jews had a right to freedom and dignity in the countries where they lived – led them to fight the Tsar, reject Zionism, resist the Nazis, and ultimately help lead the Warsaw ghetto revolt. It is also a philosophy that immediately resonates with the political situation all over the world today. In this book, Molly Crabapple tells the story of the Bund through the lives of the bold and brilliant individuals who were pivotal to carrying out the doctrine, including her own great-grandfather, through whom she first discovered the movement.‘Crabapple, with this great work, adds to her growing legacy as a unique American genius’ Jason Stanley‘Recounts, with a novelist’s mastery of detail, one of the most extraordinary rebellions of the human spirit in modern history’ Pankaj Mishra‘A masterful storyteller who possesses an admirable sense of history and writes with verve and wit … Here Where We Live Is Our Country is a true tour de force’ Jon Lee Anderson

This book provides the first comprehensive treatment of creditor priority in European bank insolvency law.Following reform in the wake of the global financial crisis, EU law requires that Member States have in place bank-specific insolvency frameworks. Creditor priority—the order in which different creditors bear losses should a bank fail—differs substantially between bank-specific and general insolvency law. The bank-specific creditor priority framework aims to ensure that banks can enter insolvency proceedings without disrupting financial stability.The book provides a systematic and thorough account of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive and other EU legislation that governs creditor priority in bank resolution and liquidation proceedings, and their interaction with national law. The framework is analysed from several perspectives, including comparison with creditor priority in English, German and Norwegian general insolvency law. Moreover, the book places the evolution of the framework and its justifications within the broader post-crisis shifts in bank regulation, and critically examines the assumptions that underlie these developments. Finally, the book discusses how this area of law could evolve in the future.
