Hadrian's Wall

Hadrian’s Wall examines the Roman Empire’s most spectacular British monument. Stretching from the Tyne to the Solway Firth, this massive fortification physically divided Britain, serving as a strategic barrier between Roman civilization and northern barbarian tribes. The authors frame the wall’s construction and tactical usage within the context of imperial frontier policy. For three centuries, auxiliary troops maintained this frontier until the fall of the Western Empire led to the soldiers' departure and the wall's decay.

Hot, Flat And Crowded: Why...

A gripping, eye-opening, and ultimately hopeful look at the defining geopolitical challenges of our time by three-time Pulitzer Prize winner Thomas L. Friedman.

In this brilliant international bestseller, Thomas L. Friedman takes a hard look at the three monumental forces reshaping our world: global warming ("hot"), the rapid leveling of the economic playing field through globalization ("flat"), and staggering global population growth ("crowded"). Friedman masterfully explains how the convergence of these trends threatens our planet's stability, driving resource depletion, climate shifts, and the rise of dangerous energy regimes.
