Published by Book Club Associates / BCA: by arrangement with Random House, 1995
Hardback: 8" x 5ĵ". Condition: Very Good: Light signs of wear. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Cover Art: Steve Crisp (illustrator). Book Club Edition. İ 1995: 1st in the 'Genesys' series of books. 1st printing of 1995 edition. BCA #CN 1477:- Synopsis: A world without mountains and volcanoes, where the seas shift and all matter rots sooner or later. A world where forgetting is the deadliest sin, according to an old adage, but little is remembered of ancient days. A world where Andris Myrasol, imprisoned prince and soldier-of-fortune, faces two unpleasant alternatives: work for years on crumbling city walls or become the host of a seed which will grow into a horn tree, impaling him from within - in the spirit of scientific enquiry. When Andris' cousin helps him break out of prison he is more than pleased to join an expedition into unknown lands searching for mystical places and beings. But, like so much on this world, things do not work out as expected:- Review(s): Brian Stableford has began a sequence of epic novels which will raise him to the top of the genre. 'Serpent's Blood' introduces the reader to a new world which fascinates and horrifies at the same time - colourful, magical and very, very deadly:- (original cost unmarked).

Democratic Institutional Design
Language: English
Published by Stanford University Press, US, 2000
ISBN 10: 0804735700 ISBN 13: 9780804735704
Hardback. Condition: New. Based on the policy-making structures of Venezuelan government, this book examines the constitutionally allocated powers of the executive and legislature and shows how the powers of each branch are exercised given the incentives established by the electoral system and changing partisan strengths. Several institutional characteristics have led to a passive legislature and an activist chief executive. The advantages presidents enjoy as a result of their constitutional and partisan powers are demonstrated by a wealth of empirical evidence, including records of votes of censure, initiation of legislation, and the use of decree authority. Because of its dominance, the Venezuelan executive branch is the focus of interest-group pressure, which is institutionalized through consultative commissions and a decentralized public administration. The author analyzes memberships of more than 300 advisory commissions and governing boards, revealing the preponderance of posts filled by umbrella agencies for business and labor. The interaction of this limited version of civil society with policy makers in the executive branch has led to a highly protectionist development strategy and excessive government subsidies. The strategy and the political process that made it possible were both exhausted by the end of the 1980s. Venezuela was in political and economic crisis. The author places Venezuela in a comparative context with other Latin American states on three issues: the likelihood that executives will receive disciplined, majority support in the legislature; the constitutional powers of presidents; and the degree to which business and labor are formally incorporated through single peak associations. Participation and policy-making processes vary significantly across Latin American democracies, with few others reaching the level of centralization that has characterized Venezuela. At the other end of the spectrum, some Latin American institutional designs are characterized by diffusion and fragmentation. In conclusion, the author offers a blueprint to modify some of the counterproductive patterns associated with Venezuela, one of the longest-lived but now troubled democracies in Latin America.
