2002Best.-Nr. BK-4EFESZShearwater Books 2002-10. 2002 first printing. Hardcover. collectible_like_new. From the cars we drive to the instant messages we receive from debate about genetically modified foods to astonishing strides in cloning robotics and nanotechnology it would be hard to deny technology's powerful grip on our lives. To stop and ask whether this digitized implanted reality is quite what we had in mind when we opted for progress or to ask if we might not be creating more problems than we solve is likely to peg us as hopelessly backward or suspiciously eccentric. Yet not only questioning but challenging technology turns out to have a long and noble history. In this timely and incisive work Nicols Fox examines contemporary resistance to technology and places it in a surprising historical context. She brilliantly illuminates the rich but oftentimes unrecognized literary and philosophical tradition that has existed for nearly two centuries since the first Luddites—the ""machine breaking"" followers of the mythical Ned Ludd—lifted their sledgehammers in protest against the Industrial Revolution. Tracing that current of thought through some of the great minds of the 19th and 20th centuries—William Blake Mary Shelley Charles Dickens John Ruskin William Morris Henry David Thoreau Ralph Waldo Emerson Robert Graves Aldo Leopold Rachel Carson and many others—Fox demonstrates that modern protests against consumptive lifestyles and misgivings about the relentless march of mechanization are part of a fascinating hidden history. She shows as well that the Luddite tradition can yield important insights into how we might reshape both technology and modern life so that human community and environmental values take precedence over the demands of the machine. In Against the Machine Nicols Fox writes with compelling immediacy—bringing a new dimension and depth to the debate over what technology means both now and for our future. Shearwater Books hardcover

Best.-Nr. 38084New York: J. H. Sears & Company Unknown. Hardcover. Very Good. Hardcover. SCARCE IN EARLY EDITION. Sir Frank Fox 1874-1960 was an Australian-born journalist soldier and author. He began his journalism career in Australia in 1893 and worked for a number of Australian publications until 1909. In 1909 he moved to Britain to become assistant editor for the Morning Post. While a war correspondent in World War I he was commissioned into the Royal Field Artillery and served in France.

Fox was a prolific author and published numerous books on the British empire Australia the military and naval operations and travel. The Mastery of the Pacific was initially published in 1928. This copy is undated but the lesser quality of the paper suggests that it was printed during a wartime shortage. The content is an interesting analysis of the potential conflict between the British Empire and a newly-powerful United States for supremacy in the Pacific Ocean and whether war is inevitable. It also discusses Russia in ruins after World War I the role of Japan and the relative inefficiency of China as a possible threat. Includes two maps one of the United States and one of the Pacific.
