- A factual account of possible contact with the supernatural.
118,95 kr. Tales of strange apparitions, hauntings and eerie noises had circulated for years among the work force at Old Castle Works, some of the employees had actually left because of such events, when Peter Jackson was appointed works engineer in 1984. A man not given to hearing "things that go bump in the night," he set out to conduct his own painstaking investigations of these seemingly supernatural events. A firm believer that all odd occurrences at the old factory had a rational explanation behind them, he launched his own investigation, the results of which he recounts in "Beyond Reason: A Factual Account of Possible Contact with the Supernatural". For Peter Jackson, the results of his researches have led him to reassess his own beliefs as to the nature of the natural and so-called supernatural forces with which man lives and has lived with from the beginning of time. He leaves the reader to draw their own conclusions.

1.178,95 kr. "The Paris peace settlements following the First World War remain amongst the most controversial treaties in history. Bringing together leading international historians, this volume assesses the extent to which a new international order, combining old and new political forms, emerged from the peace negotiations and settlements after 1918. Taking account of new historiographical perspectives and methodological approaches to the study of peacemaking after the First World War, it views the peace negotiations and settlements after 1918 as a site of remarkable innovations in the practice of international politics. The contributors address how a wide range of actors set out new ways of thinking about international order, established innovative institutions, and revolutionised the conduct of international relations. They show how the ways in which these innovations layered upon existing practices, institutions and concepts shaped the emerging international order after 1918"--

- The Use and Limits of Intelligence in International Society
1.388,95 kr. Intelligence has never been a more important factor in international affairs than it is today. Since the end of the Second World War, vast intelligence bureaucracies have emerged to play an increasingly important role in the making of national policy within all major states. One of the biggest problems within the contemporary thinking about intelligence and international relations is a lack of historical context. Observers routinely comment on the challenges facing intelligence communities without reflecting on the historical forces that have shaped these communities over the past two centuries. As presented in this volume, new perspectives on the evolution of intelligence services and intelligence practice over the past 200 years can only enrich ongoing debates over how best to reform national intelligence structures.
