Hardback. Condition: Good. In a poignant and lavishly illustrated storybook, two revered creators give wing to the ancient Irish tale of a wild child with a heart of gold. In lean times, a boy's parents send him to a monastery to be cared for. After study and prayer, the monks let young Kevin run and play in the woods and fields. But the time comes when he must set aside childish ways. Shut in his lonely cell, yearning for home and the freedom of the outdoors, Kevin reaches through the window toward the light as two blackbirds land in and feather the nest of his hands. Kevin waits, day after day, for their eggs to hatch, and it's not until the chicks spread tiny wings and fly off--three new wild things gone out into the world--that he can rest and the monks can see what they must do. In a moving first collaboration, a Hans Christian Andersen Award winner and a two-time Kate Greenaway Medal winner transform a traditional Irish tale--about the love of nature and the mercies of letting go--and make it soar. Lynch, P.J. (illustrator).…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Few countries have been as dramatically transformed in recent years as Ireland. Ireland finally emerged in the late 1990s as the fastest-growing country in Europe, with the typical Irishman enjoying a higher standard of living than the average Brit. Just a few years after celebrating their newly-won status among the world's richest societies, the Irish are now saddled with a wounded, shrinking economy, soaring unemployment, and ruined public finances. After so many centuries of impoverishment, how did the Irish finally get rich, and how did they then fritter away so much so quickly? Here, veteran journalist David J. Lynch offers an insightful, character-driven narrative of how the Irish boom came to be and how it went bust. He opens our eyes to a nation's downfall through the lived experience of individual citizens: the people responsible for the current crisis as well as the ordinary men and women enduring it. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. Why globalization failed so many Americans and why we must defend it in the face of burgeoning economic nationalism. The triumphant globalization of the 1990s and early 2000s has given way to a world economy riven by conflict and populism, as the United States, China and other world powers embrace economic nationalism. In The World's Worst Bet, global economics specialist David J. Lynch offers a trenchant, fast-paced narrative of the rise and fall of the greatest engine of prosperity the world has ever known and sheds important new light on why the march toward greater global integration faltered. How have we fallen so far - from the global hopes of the 1990s to the fractured world and sour, angry politics of the current moment? Lynch explains what went right, what went wrong, and what needs to change to preserve the benefits of global integration and build prosperity for Americans. Lynch's deep understanding of the tumultuous forces shaping Americans' lives is vividly portrayed through a fascinating cast of characters: presidents and policymakers, factory workers whose jobs vanished amid the euphoria over free trade and whose anger reshaped a nation's politics, and the ideological warriors on the right and left who fought globalization. Their stories illuminate the changing nature of the global economy and what it means for all Americans, from politicians to business executives, workers, and the average citizen. With the world economy at a tipping point, The World's Worst Betis an essential corrective to arguments for economic nationalism. Our future prosperity depends on getting this right.…
