This Other London: Adventures in the Overlooked City
Join John Rogers as he ventures out into an uncharted London like a redbrick Indiana Jones in search of the lost meaning of our metropolitan existence. Nursing two reluctant knees and a can of Stella, he perambulates through the seasons seeking adventure in our city’s remote and forgotten reaches.
International Law and United States Law
Public international law is a system of binding obligations in international relations. This accessible volume identifies, explains, and justifies the generally accepted role of public international law in the application of United States law by United States courts. It rejects the trendy idea of international law as a sort of "super-constitution" that "controls" the President or Congress; it also rejects the opposite extreme, that international law is no more than a policy consideration for the courts to consider. The middle position is justified by a careful balancing of two important national interests: constitutional separation of powers, and the ability of the United States to benefit from international law. "International law and United States law" is descriptive with respect to the overarching principles of public international law and US constitutional law, yet critical with respect to applications of (and failures to apply) public international law in specific cases. This authoritative work is an invaluable tool for judges and lawyers who rarely encounter international law, and also for students and others interested in the role of international law.
The Matter of Revolution
John Rogers here addresses the literary and ideological consequences of the remarkable, if improbable, alliance between science and politics in seventeenth-century England. He looks at the cultural intersection between the English and Scientific Revolutions, concentrating on a body of work created in a brief but potent burst of intellectual activity during the period of the Civil Wars, the Interregnum, and the earliest years of the Stuart Restoration. Rogers traces the broad implications of a seemingly outlandish cultural phenomenon: the intellectual imperative to forge an ontological connection between physical motion and political action.

Locke's Philosophy
This volume of essays by a distinguished international group of scholars looks both at core areas of John Locke's philosophy and political theory and at areas not usually discussed--the links between his philosophy and his religious and political thought, the effects and implications of Locke's works in the world at the time, and the manifestations of those effects in the present day. Drawing on material not available until recently, the book is the first original collection of Locke scholarship in some years.
Walt Whitman
In 1961 the first volume of Edwin Haviland Miller’s The Correspondence was published in the newly established series the Collected Writings of Walt Whitman. Miller proceeded to publish five additional volumes of Whitman letters, and other leading scholars, including Roger Asselineau, compiled accompanying volumes of prose, poems, and daybooks. Yet by the late 1980s, the Whitman Collected Writings project was hopelessly scattered, fragmented, and incomplete. Now, more than forty years after the inaugural volume’s original publication, Ted Genoways brings scholars the latest volume in Walt Whitman: The Correspondence. Incorporating all of the letters Miller had collected before his death i...
