In 16 in-depth lectures, Professor Dennis Dalton puts the key theories of power formulated by several of history's greatest minds within your reach.
Dr. Dalton traces two distinct schools of political theory, idealism and realism, from their roots in ancient India and Greece through history and, ultimately, to their impact on the 20th century—via the lives and ideas of two charismatic, yet utterly disparate, leaders: Adolph Hitler and Mahatma Gandhi.

Topics in Classical Micro- and Macroeconomics: Elements of a Critique of Neoricardian Theory
This book demonstrates that classical micro- and macroeconomics, in particular in the tradition of Smith, Ricardo and Marx, can be synthesized into a coherent whole from the perspective of formal model building as well as applied Leontief-Stone systems of national accounts and the input-output approaches built on them. This reformulation of classical economics differs significantly from the static Neoricardian formalization of the classical approach to economics.
Since 1960, when Sartre published the first volume of his monumental Critique de la raison dialectique, the unfinished second volume achieved the status of the century's most keenly awaited philosophical work - finally published in 1985. In a book without parallel, Ronald Aronson provides a thorough explication of and commentary on this historic work of social philosophy. . .
The book is really excellent, I think: vitally needed, eminently readable, and right on the mark with its comprehensive and incisive critique of the most influential confidence trick in the history of modern linguistics.
