Power and Plenty
International trade has shaped the modern world, yet until now no single book has been available for both economists and general readers that traces the history of the international economy from its earliest beginnings to the present day.

Ronald Findlay and Kevin O'Rourke examine the successive waves of globalization and "deglobalization" that have occurred during the past thousand years, looking closely at the technological and political causes behind these long-term trends. They show how the expansion and contraction of the world economy has been directly...
The Mercenary Guide to Story Structure
Everyone loves a good story. What do all good stories have in common? Structure.There are two prevailing traits amongst writers when discussing structure - they're either plotters or pansters. A plotter creates a detailed, sometimes heavily regimented, outline for their novel while a pantser writes "from the seat of their pants" and discovers the story and characters as they go. The kind of writer you are doesn't matter when it comes to story structure, though. Really.Why? We've understood story structure our whole lives. It's been passed down for hundreds of years and we inherently understand it, but bringing it to the page requires a different mindset entirely. We have to understand story,...
A World Safe for Democracy
A sweeping account of the rise and evolution of liberal internationalism in the modern era For two hundred years, the grand project of liberal internationalism has been to build a world order that is open, loosely rules-based, and oriented toward progressive ideas. Today this project is in crisis, threatened from the outside by illiberal challengers and from the inside by nationalist-populist movements. This timely book offers the first full account of liberal internationalism’s long journey from its nineteenth-century roots to today’s fractured political moment. Creating an international “space” for liberal democracy, preserving rights and protections within and between countries, and balancing conflicting values such as liberty and equality, openness and social solidarity, and sovereignty and interdependence—these are the guiding aims that have propelled liberal internationalism through the upheavals of the past two centuries. G. John Ikenberry argues that in a twenty-first century marked by rising economic and security interdependence, liberal internationalism—reformed and reimagined—remains the most viable project to protect liberal democracy.
Paternus
Book 1 of the completed Paternus Trilogy Even myths have legends.

Paternus is intelligent, intricate, suspenseful, and epic." -Nicholas Eames, Gemmell Award winning author of Kings of the Wyld and Bloody Rose "Ashton's story is a crucible in which myths are melted and remade to thrilling effect." -M. R. (Mike) Carey, author of The Girl with All the Gifts and the Felix Castor series And not all legends are myth. When a local hospital is ...
