Beschrijving The Marvelous Clouds

Shows how media lie at the very heart of our interactions with the world around us. The author argues that though we often think of media as environments, the reverse is just as true-environments are media. It provides a fresh appreciation for the day-to-day foundations of life on earth we so often take for granted.

Blue Jerusalem

The story of how the post-war Labour government under Clement Attlee re-fashioned Britain is a familiar one. This is the alternative story of how the Conservatives envisioned Britain's post-war future, revealing the bold, at times utopian, plans that British Conservatives drew up for Britain and the post-war world.
