A much-needed behind-the-scenes survey of an emerging Asian power The eyes of the West have recently been trained on China and India, but Vietnam is rising fast among its Asian peers. A breathtaking period of social change has seen foreign investment bringing capitalism flooding into its nominally communist society, booming cities swallowing up smaller villages, and the lure of modern living tugging at the traditional networks of family and community. Yet beneath these sweeping developments lurks an authoritarian political system that complicates the nation’s apparent renaissance. In this engaging work, experienced journalist Bill Hayton looks at the costs of change in Vietnam and questions whether this rising Asian power is really heading toward capitalism and democracy.Based on vivid eyewitness accounts and pertinent case studies, Hayton’s book addresses a broad variety of issues in today’s Vietnam, including important shifts in international relations, the growth of civil society, economic developments and challenges, and the nation’s nascent democracy movement as well as its notorious internal security. His analysis of Vietnam’s “police state,” and its systematic mechanisms of social control, coercion, and surveillance, is fresh and particularly imperative when viewed alongside his portraits of urban and street life, cultural legacies, religion, the media, and the arts. With a firm sense of historical and cultural context, Hayton examines how these issues have emerged and where they will lead Vietnam in the next stage of its development.

By Don Lomax, Harvey-nominated creator of the acclaimed Vietnam Journal comic book series. Survive! is a grim look at life after the events of a Third World War. Nuclear fallout has hit the U.S.A., and the Miller family were prepared...they have an underground bunker, and plenty of food and supplies. But they must protect themselves against the less fortunate, who are proving to be more and more desperate as starvation and radiation effects take hold, becoming literal zombies before their very eyes. "Don Lomax's writing is excellent and extremely detailed, and I imagine this is one of the better takes on the reality of a post-apocalyptic society." - comicclassics.org A Caliber Comic release.

Adapted into the Warner Brothers action/adventure motion picture of the same name starring Academy Award nominee Robert Mitchum and BAFTA Award Winner Jack Hawkins. The novel contains numerous additional scenes, subplots, and characters not depicted in the feature film. For fans of such films as The Ghost and the Darkness, and Beast. RAMPAGE: Two renowned big-game hunters, a German Otto von Abart and American Harry Stanton, embark on a dangerous mission into the steaming jungles of Malaya. Their assignment: to capture prize specimens for the Munich Zoo in Germany. Neither man realizes that the trip is to prove the ordeal of their lives, an ordeal inflamed by the presence of von Abart's beautiful mistress Anna. As the trio battle their way through the treacherous jungle, what began as a professional rivalry soon turns into a personal rivalry as well, and the two men engage in a strange combat that can end only with the destruction of one of them. Always between the two men is Anna, watching, waiting as much the prize as is the black killer leopard both hunters covet and pursue.
