Life seems ideal within the utopian confines of Olympus, a shining beacon in a post-World War III wasteland, but perfection is always an illusion. Stalking the ruins of New York City is Artemis, a renegade, flesh-eating bioroid (enhanced artificial human) carrying data critical to the future of Olympus. The elite ESWAT is sent in to tranq her and bring her in, but when Artemis recovers during transit the powerful combat bioroid brings down the transport ship and escapes into Olympus! ESWAT agents Deunan and Briareos are dispatched to bring in the feral Artemis, but will they emerge as heroes . . . or lunch? * Shirow is well-known and critically acclaimed internationally, and is responsible for numerous classic anime/manga titles, such as Appleseed, Dominion, Ghost in the Shell, Orion, and Black Magic. * Produced in the authentic right-to-left reading format, as originally published in Japan.

Henry David Thoreau's translation of "Prometheus Bound" was published in 1843 in the "Dial," the most important magazine of the American transcendentalist movement. This edition makes it available to a wide audience in book form for the first time. This edition also includes descriptions and fragments of the other two plays of Aeschylus' Prometheus trilogy. "Prometheus Bound" has been one of the most influential of the classical Greek tragedies, inspiring poems by Goethe, Shelly, Byron and others. But it is often misunderstood, because it is read in isolation. Read by itself, "Prometheus Bound" seems to tell the story of Prometheus' heroic resistance to Zeus' tyranny. But when we read the entire trilogy, we can see that the relation between Zeus and Prometheus is far more complex. "Prometheus Bound" has always been considered one of the greatest Greek tragedies-and this book lets us see that the Prometheus trilogy as a whole is more powerful than this one play. This edition includes an introduction by the great classical scholar, Nikolaus Wecklein, which has long been out of print. It also includes commentary by Charles Siegel, which makes an important new contribution to scholarship about reconstructing the Prometheus trilogy.

From the author of the New York Times bestseller The Wealth and Poverty of Nations, a fascinating look at the crossroads of kin and coin David S. Landes has earned a reputation as a brilliant writer and iconoclast among economic historians. In his latest acclaimed work, he takes a revealing look at the quality that distinguishes a third of today's Fortune 500 companies: family ownership. From the banking fortunes of Rothschild and Morgan to the automobile empires of Ford and Toyota, Landes explores thirteen different dynasties, revealing what lay behind their successes-and how extravagance, bad behavior, and poor enterprise brought some of them to their knees. A colorful history that is full of surprising conclusions, Dynasties is an engrossing mix of ambition, eccentricity, and wealth.
