IT was once welcomed as a liberator and genie that would free us from enslavement to mundane chores and the daily grind. Instead, Ian Angell says it is breeding a new society of `barbarians` in which the winner takes all. He claims that the world after the information revolution will be one in which a gifted few control corporations that move factories around the planet in search of the lowest wages -- it is already happening, as prisoners, serving life sentences in the US operate telesales services for major American Airlines. Angell`s view is apocalyptic -- poverty for the many and self-gov

Early Monday morning Mackay peeped out of the big warehouse door at the great calm mountain shrouded in the pale mists of early dawn. The other two travelers were soon astir, and were surprised to find their young companion all ready. They were not yet well enough acquainted with him to know that he could do with less sleep at night than an owl.

The name Attila the Hun is a byword for barbarism, savagery, and violence. In the years 434-454 A.D. the fate of Europe hung upon the actions of one man, Attila, king of the Huns. The decaying Roman empire still stood astride the Western World, but it was threatened by a new force, the much-feared Barbarian hordes. Today, Attila remains the most enduring bogeyman in history, a one-man wrecking ball that helped put the final boot into Rome s decaying splendor. Masterful storyteller John Man brings to life this marauding figure of the battlefield and his descriptions of the Huns grotesque t
