Jagdish N. Bhagwati
The Wind of the Hundred Days: How Washington Mismanaged Globalization

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In The Wind of the Hundred Days , a new collection of public policy essays, Jagdish Bhagwati applies his characteristic wit and accessible style to the subject of globalization. Notably, he argues that the true Clinton scandal lay in the administration`s mismanagement of globalization -- resulting in the paradox of immense domestic policy success combined with dramatic failure on the external front. Bhagwati assigns the bulk of the blame for the East Asian financial and economic crisis -- a disaster that prompts him to use as his title the poet Octavio Paz`s image of devastation `I met the wind of the hundred days` -- to the administration`s hasty push for financial liberalization in the region. The administration, Bhagwati claims, hasalso mishandled the freeing of trade. The administration-hosted WTO meeting in Seattle ended in chaos and the launch of a new round of multilateral trade negotiations was dashed. Bhagwati shows how the administration`s failure to get… [detailed...]

The Wind, Master Cherry, The Wind

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Haunting and spare, The Wind, Master Cherry, The Wind is obsessed with fate`s fickle nature. Propelled by internal rhyme, these lyric poems draw on fairy tales and fables, stories from the Bible and from Carlo Collodi`s Pinocchio , their characters blown hither and thither by mythic winds-but -inevitably, toward an awareness of mortality. Inside the Dog-Fish Wide as the church, the sea, the cavern, hard as a rock, a tree, a geyser, tight as the spot of birth, hot as the furnace, serpent, witch, plain as the ego, primitive, tomb, loose as a swallow`s whirling torso, fiery vertebra-madre terribile, mother of agony, atony, urge, providing a passage, a sabbath, excuse, symbol of charm gone darkly sour, emotional windbag pricked by the light of the luna cornuta, spitting up trinkets and bottles of rum, and pages of books, and chunks of men. `Mark Strand describes Edward Hopper`s work… [detailed...]

Haruki Murakami
The Wind-up Bird Chronicle

2004 y.
Publisher: Vintage
Description: Toru Okada`s cat has disappeared and this has unsettled his wife, who is herself growing more distant every day. Then there are the increasingly explicit telephone calls he has started receiving. As this compelling story unfolds, the tidy suburban realities of Okada`s vague and blameless life - spent cooking, reading, listening to jazz and opera and drinking beer at the kitchen table -are turned inside out, and he embarks on a bizarre journey, guided (however obscurely) by a succession of characters, each with a tale to tell. Murakami writes of contemporary Japan, urban alienation and journeys of self-discovery, and in this book he combines recollections of the war with metaphysics, dreams and hallucinations into a powerful and impressionistic work Independent Murakami weaves these textured layers of reality into a shot-silk garment of… [detailed...]

The Winner`s Guide to Drafting a Fantasy Football Team

Publisher: —
Description: Fantasy football has become one of my favorite pastimes of tens of millions of American males, and there are literally hundreds of websites, books, magazines, and television shows designed to tell you everything you need to know about the subject. Almost everything, that is. Anyone who has ever tried to find a definitive way to rank players for their fantasy draft-- or worse, find dollar values for auction-style leagues - knows the difficulty of finding a system that works for their leagues. Because leagues vary according to size, rules, and scoring systems, a player who may be a valuable commodity in one league may be below average in another. Therefore, the `one size fits all` rankings or valuations that you see most places can be useless. And even if those rankings were designed specifically for leagues like yours, values and rankings are normally assigned in a subjective manner, without any mathematical evidence to support the author`s case.
