Membaca buku ini, kita diajak untuk memahami tarik-tolak dan saling-pengaruh antara unsur-unsur kekuatan lokal dan tekanan global yang ikut bermain dan membentuk praktik budaya, gaya hidup, dan kesadaran kita khususnya generasi muda di tengah arus deras komodifikasi budaya dan media yang menjadi bagian penting dari denyut dan irama kehidupan kita sehari-hari "Komunikasi dan Komodifikasi, sebuah buku baru yang penting karya Idi Subandy Ibrahim dan Bachruddin Ali Akhmad, menggali ketidaksetaraan menyeluruh dari sistem global, suatu sistem yang di dalamnya bangsa-bangsa pasca-kolonial seperti Indonesia merupakan sasaran eksploitasu ekonomi dan pesan-pesan hegemonik mengenai gender dan masyarakat dari para konglomerat internasional dan bangsa-bangsa asing yang kuat. Mereka mengungkap mekanisme yang mengancam mengenai propoganda media dan ekspansi kepitalis global (bersama dengan agensi terbatas dari konsumen dan kemungkinan bentu-bentuk media alternatif).

Did the Earth once undergo a super ice age, one that froze the entire planet? A global adventure story and a fascinating account of scientist Paul Hoffman's quest to prove his maverick 'Snowball Earth' theory, this is science writing at its most gripping. In SNOWBALL EARTH, Gabrielle Walker takes us on a thrilling natural history expedition in search of supporting evidence for the audacious theory which argues that the Earth experienced a climatic cataclysm 600 million years ago that froze the entire planet from the poles to the equator. Because the global snowball happened so long ago the ice has now long gone - but it left its traces in rocks around the world and in order to see the evidence, Walker visited such places as Australia, Namibia, South Africa and Death Valley, USA. Part adventure story and part travel book, it's a tale of the ultimate human endeavour to understand our origins.

A perennial bestseller by eminent mathematician G. Polya, How to Solve It will show anyone in any field how to think straight. In lucid and appealing prose, Polya reveals how the mathematical method of demonstrating a proof or finding an unknown can be of help in attacking any problem that can be "reasoned" out—from building a bridge to winning a game of anagrams. Generations of readers have relished Polya's deft—indeed, brilliant—instructions on stripping away irrelevancies and going straight to the heart of the problem.

Global Perspectives on E-Learning: Rhetoric and Reality presents several cases of international online education and the rhetoric that surrounds this form of teaching and learning. Editor Alison A. Carr-Chellman examines the impact of online distance education throughout the world in an effort to understand more deeply the merits of such initiatives. Written from a critical perspective, the book sheds light on some of the problems faced by international distance educators. It particularly focuses on who benefits, and who does not, by the advance of international e-learning and how we can respond to the needs of the disenfranchised. This book is intended to supplement what has to this point been largely a positive, how-to literature in distance education. It offers a balanced perspective on the problems and possibilities of distance education worldwide.
