MOVING CAMERAS AND LIVING MOVIES
I can say with absolute certainty that, everybody enjoys watching movies, cinema, films and television. But few, if any, know how a film is made: a film has inbuilt special effects or 'tricks'to make it appealing to audiences. MOVING CAMERAS AND LIVING MOVIES reveals to you ALL about films & Filmmaking; it is a hard and tasking enterprise involving tens of thousands of workers and millions of investment dollars. After reading MOVING CAMERAS...your love for movies will triple. Movie technicians and camera gurus have a license to mould, alter, and manipulate the screen to produce or induce rain, sunlight, snow, fire, or fly any object in space in defiance of gravity or even cause 'accidents'or 'raise' the dead to life. Learn the fascinating, exciting world of film, actresses, actors, fashion, and fictional entities.
A Global Idea
A Global Idea outlines how youth—as shown by the Arab Spring uprisings and subsequent state responses—became a prominent social and political category during the first two decades of the twenty-first century in the Middle East. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, interview data, and textual analysis, Mayssoun Sukarieh explains that the spread of youth as an important category is linked to the operation of a "global youth development complex," a diverse transnational network of state, private sector, civil society, and international development aid organizations that worked through key urban areas such as Washington, DC, Amman, and Dubai. In its analysis of the arrival, extension, and embedding of the youth development complex in the Middle East during this period, A Global Idea addresses a broader question that is of global and not just regional concern. How are certain ideas that are central to the working and reproduction of global capitalism able to travel the world so that they are found virtually everywhere?

These are the Tools of the Present
An important collection of interviews with contemporary artists, musicians and writers in dialogue with Beirut and Cairo today, These Are the Tools of the Present is not an overview of the art scenes in these cities, but a picture of how artists think about being active in the contexts of these two cities. It offers insight into the circumstances that structure their stories, and the often-accidental influences that shaped the development of their practices. Published on the occasion of Meeting Points 8, Both Sides of the Curtain, a biannual international multidisciplinary arts event taking the Arab world as a starting point to pose questions about art. Contributions by Lawrence Abu Hamdan, Haig Aivazian, Mounira Al Solh, Doa Aly, Andeel, Mirene Arsanios, Malak Helmy, Iman Issa, Mahmoud Khaled, Maurice Louca, Jasmina Metwaly, Joe Namy, Nile Sunset Annex, November Paynter, Roy Samaha, Sharif Sehnaoui, Rania Stephan, Christophe Wavelet and Lauren Wetmore.
Murder in the Name of Honour
Murder in the Name of Honour is Rana Husseini’s hard-hitting and controversial examination of honour crimes. Common in many traditional societies around the world, as well as in migrant communities in Europe and the USA, they involve a ‘punishment’—often death or disfigurement—carried out by a relative to restore the family’s honour. Breaking through the conspiracy of silence surrounding this crime, one writer above all others has been instrumental in bringing it to the world’s attention: Rana Husseini.
