Ink marks and underlining noted. Surmounting the Global Crisis critiques the impact of NATO enlargement and the US 'pivot to Asia' on both the Russia and China and examines how these dual US-backed policies may influence key countries in the Euro-Atlantic, wider Middle East, and Indo-Pacific regions in general. Hall Gardner (born January 10, 1954) is a professor of International Politics at the American University of Paris. He received his BA from Colgate University and his MA and Ph.D. from the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) at the Johns Hopkins University. He primarily study the origins of war, focusing on its sources and impacts, both local and global and the ways in which such conflicts can be resolved. As a geo-strategist, his comparative historical approach combines theory and contemporary international affairs in dealing with topics such as NATO and the European Union, post-Soviet Union Russia and its effects on China and Eurasia, and the international consequences of the “war on terrorism.” In July 2008, Narcissus Press published The Wake-Up Blast, Gardner’s first book of original poems. Barbecue Meltdown, his second book of poetry published by Narcissus Press, is set to appear in 2009. He is working on several other poetry books and novels, including Dolphin Legends and the Man of War, a long prose poem, and Tie Dyed in Blood, a novel inspired by his time spent in China and Vietnam from 1988-1989.

Mark Gayn, born Mark Julius Ginsbourg (21 April 1909 – 17 December 1981) was an American and Canadian journalist. Mark Julius Ginsbourg was born in 1909 in Barim, Manchuria, in the Qing Empire to Russian-Jewish parents who had migrated from the Russian Empire. He went to school in Vladivostok in the Soviet Union and then in Shanghai, China. He was accepted to Pomona College in Claremont, California, in the United States where he majored in political science. Following his graduation from Pomona, he entered the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, graduating in 1934. Ginsbourg got into his career in the 1930s as a stringer (journalism) for Washington Post in the Shanghai. He returned to the U.S. shortly after World War II broke out in Europe, changing his name to Gayn to prevent Japanese reprisals against his brother Sam, who remained in Japanese-occupied Shanghai. He filed reports on North Korean dictator Kim Il Sung's repression and, as one of the first Western journalists admitted into China in the mid-1960s, he managed to criticize the country's Maoist regimentation. Within the U.S., Gayn's work appeared within the New York Times as well as in Newsweek and in Time magazine. More

Paris: Gallimard, 1950. Limited Edition, number 402 of 750. Hardcover. In French. 218, [4] pages. Approximately 4.75 inches by 7 inches. André Paul Guillaume Gide (22 November 1869 – 19 February 1951) was a French author and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature (in 1947). Gide's career ranged from its beginnings in the symbolist movement, to the advent of anticolonialism between the two World Wars. Known for his fiction as well as his autobiographical works, Gide exposes to public view the conflict and eventual reconciliation of the two sides of his personality. Gide's work can be seen as an investigation of freedom and empowerment in the face of moralistic and puritanical constraints, and centres on his continuous effort to achieve intellectual honesty. His self-exploratory texts reflect his search of how to be fully oneself without at the same time betraying one's values. His political activity is shaped by the same ethos, as indicated by his repudiation of communism after his 1936 voyage to the USSR. More
