A twenty-first-century Nathanael West, he has been hailed for his powerful prose, his Swiftian satire, and the scalpel-sharp wit that has, in each of his novels, dissected and sometimes disemboweled Hollywood excess. Now, in his most ambitious book to date, Still Holding, the third in the Cellular Trilogy that began with I’m Losing You and I’ll Let You Go, Wagner immerses readers in post-September 11 Hollywood, revealing as much rabid ambition, rampant narcissism, a...

The purpose of this book is to analyse the process of regionalisation and to plot its future development. Regionalisation is a common feature of the changing territorial organisation of European states today. Regionalisation alone, however, cannot produce any of the benefits we attribute to it without looking into the conditions in which it occurs. Therefore, this book tackles the following questions, bringing together theory and empirical applications: What are the main determinants and implications for regional policy? How does economic policy affect the growth and integration process? Why i...

Bad news blows steadily out of Gaza, but few of us actually know much about the place and the various people who call it home. In this photo essay two French journalists create an informal survey of the views on all sides, from Palestinian "tunnellers" to Israeli "settlers." Curious to see how real life was playing out on the ground in Gaza on a day-to-day basis, two French journalists traveled there together four times in 2004, during the height of the second Intifada, to take the pulse of a society under fire. Their images and anecdotes reveal the deeply human side of a conflict whose impact...
