    Content: "Within a variety of historical contexts, The Shaping of Grand Strategy addresses the most important tasks states have confronted: namely, how to protect their citizens against the short-range as well as long-range dangers their polities confront in the present and may confront in the future. To be successful, grand strategy demands that governments and leaders chart a course that involves more than simply reacting to immediate events. Above all, it demands they adapt to sudden and major changes in the international environment, which more often than not involves the outbreak of great conflicts but at times demands recognition of major economic, political, or diplomatic changes. This collection of essays explores the successes as well as failures of great states attempting to create grand strategies that work and aims at achieving an understanding of some of the extraordinary difficulties involved in casting, evolving, and adapting grand strategy to the realities of the world"--

    Content: "A sharp-eyed, uniquely humane tour of America's cultural landscape--from high to low to lower than low--by the award-winning young star of the literary nonfiction world In Pulphead, John Jeremiah Sullivan takes us on an exhilarating tour of our popular, unpopular, and at times completely forgotten culture. Simultaneously channeling the gonzo energy of Hunter S. Thompson and the wit and insight of Joan Didion, Sullivan shows us--with a laidback, erudite Southern charm that's all his own--how we really (no, really) live now. In his native Kentucky, Sullivan introduces us to Constantine Rafinesque, a nineteenth-century polymath genius who concocted a dense, fantastical prehistory of the New World. Back in modern times, Sullivan takes us to the Ozarks for a Christian rock festival; to Florida to meet the alumni and straggling refugees of MTV's Real World, who've generated their own self-perpetuating economy of minor celebrity; and all across the South on the trail of the blues. He takes us to Indiana to investigate the formative years of Michael Jackson and Axl Rose and then to the Gulf Coast in the wake of Katrina--and back again as its residents confront the BP oil spill. Gradually, a unifying narrative emerges, a story about this country that we've never heard told this way. It's like a fun-house hall-of-mirrors tour: Sullivan shows us who we are in ways we've never imagined to be true. Of course we don't know whether to laugh or cry when faced with this reflection--it's our inevitable sob-guffaws that attest to the power of Sullivan's work"--

    Content: Ein Journalist des amerikanischen Magazins Life macht mit seiner Fotokamera einen Schnappschuss, der für Jahrzehnte ein Sinnbild vor allem der Amerikaner für das Kriegsende wird. Das Foto wurde am 19450814 aufgenommen. Dieser Tag ist in Amerika seit 1945 der V-J-Day (Victory over Japan-Day). Ein Matrose ist auf dem Bild zu sehen, der auf dem Times Square sehr beherzt eine Krankenschwester in den Arm nimmt und intensiv küsst. Die Buchautoren machen es sich zur Aufgabe herauszufinden, wer die Krankenschwester und der Matrose waren. Es stellt sich die Frage, ob das Foto wirklich spontan gemacht oder gestellt wurde. Ist Geld an die Protagonisten geflossen? Sollte bewusst ein Mythos erschaffen werden? Welche Absichten verfolgte der Fotograf? Diesen und mehr Fragen gehen die Autoren nach. Darüber hinaus rekonstruieren sie, welche Stimmungslage an diesem Tag in New York und ganz Amerika herrschte. Das weltberühmte Foto sagt bis heute mehr als viele Worte. Es ist eines der meist verbreitesten Fotos der Welt.

    Uniform Title: The wise man's fear
    Content: Eine Intrige zwingt Kvothe, die arkanische Universität zu verlassen. Seine Suche nach den sagenumwobenen Chandrian, die seine Eltern getötet haben, führt ihn an den Hof von Maer Alveron, und weiter zu den sturmumwogten Hügeln von Ademre. Schließlich gelangt er in das zwielichtige Reich der Fae, wo er der sagenumwobenen Felurian begegnet, der bisher noch kein Mann widerstehen konnte ... Eine Geschichte voller Poesie und Musik, voller Leidenschaft, aber auch voller Intrigen, dunkler Geheimnisse und Magie. Dieser zweite Band von "Der Name des Windes" steckt wieder voller neuer Geschichten und Ideen von Patrick Rothfuss. Der Band ist daher so umfangreich geworden, dass man ihn teilen musste in zwei Bände - "Die Furcht des Weisen 1" und "Die Furcht des Weisen 2". Mit "Die Furcht des Weisen" legt Patrick Rothfuss den zweiten Teil der Königsmörder-Chronik-Trilogie vor, der in den USA bei Kritikern und Fantasylesern begeistert aufgenommen wurde und schon bald einen der vorderen Plätze in der New York Times Bestsellerliste belegte.

    Content: Oke Simons
    Content: Der schmächtige 17-jährige Henry Skrimshander lebt in einem Kaff bei seinen Eltern. Eines Tages entdeckt der ältere College-Schüler Mike Henrys Talent als Shortstop und lotst den schüchternen Jungen ins Baseballteam des Westish Colleges. Henry wird zum Star der Mannschaft, doch als er kurz vor dem Sprung ins Profi-Lager mit einem missglückten Wurf einen Teamkollegen schwer verletzt, verliert er jegliche Sicherheit und droht in allen Belangen zu scheitern. Nach und nach treten in diesem breit angelegten Entwicklungsroman weitere Personen ins Rampenlicht, z.B. der Melville-Experte und College-Präsident Guert Affenlight, der sich in Henrys Mitbewohner Owen verliebt, und seine Tochter Pella, die nach einer gescheiterten Beziehung aus San Francisco in die Provinz nach Westish zurückkehrt. Für die "New York Times" ist dieses Debüt das Buch des Jahres 2011. Auch die deutsche Kritik reagierte positiv - zurecht. Baseball spielt zwar eine wichtige Rolle, trotzdem werden auch hierzulande viele Leser von diesem hervorragenden Roman, der es durchaus mit den großen Werken John Irvings aufnehmen kann, begeistert sein.
