Titanic Reader by John Wilson Foster
This anthology for the first time ever draws from more than eight decades of literature about the TITANIC disaster. THE TITANIC READER both relives the event, with accounts of survivors and witnesses, and shows how a variety of commentators sought meaning in the disaster and how the meaning changed over the years. There are contributions from major writers, including Joseph Conrad, H.G. Wells, Thomas Hardy, Emma Goldman, George Bernard Shaw, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, William F. Buckley, and Leadbelly. A unique and compellingly readable anthology, THE TITANIC READER is the definitive book on the tragedy that had such a powerful impact on the twentieth century.

Moral Calculations by Laszlo Mero
What does game theory tell us about rational behavior? Is there such a thing as rational behavior, and if so, is it of any use to us? In this fascinating book, Mero Laszlo shows how game theory provides insight into such aspects of human psychology as altruism, competition, and politics, as well as its relevance to disparate fields such as physics and evolutionary biology. The guide shows readers how mathematics can illuminate the human condition.
