  • Quantum field theory (QFT) is one of the great achievements of physics, of profound interest to mathematicians, yet standard texts often assume a physicist's background or adopt an abstract mathematical perspective. This thoroughly updated edition bridges that gap. While maintaining a rigorous approach wherever possible, it focuses on explaining what physicists do and why, using precise mathematical language. Written for readers with a background in mathematics but no prior knowledge of physics, and largely self-contained, it presents both essential physical ideas and the necessary mathematical tools in detail. This revised edition has been improved throughout, with many clarifications to the text and the inclusion of solutions to selected exercises to enhance its use for self-study. It will appeal to mathematicians seeking an accessible path into QFT and to physics students wanting greater rigor.

  • Maximilien Robespierre was one of the most important politicians and political thinkers of the French Revolution, both celebrated and reviled. His speeches reveal elaborate and important political theories and are all the more important because he did not write a political treatise or core text. This volume offers the fullest and most scholarly edition in English of a wide array of Robespierre's revolutionary speeches from 1789 to his death in 1794. Edited with an introduction by leading scholars in the field, Colin Jones and Stephen W. Sawyer, the collection provides the resources for an in-depth exploration of Robespierre's political thought. Robespierre's speeches throw new light on the ideas and actions of the political figure of the French Revolution who has perhaps more than any other fascinated later generations.

  • The study of complex systems has expanded rapidly in recent decades, driving the development of powerful techniques that can be applied across a wide range of disciplines. The growing philosophical examination of complexity alongside scientific advances offers profound and far-reaching insights. This book delves into the philosophy of complexity, supported by interdisciplinary examples. It opens with a concise introduction to the concepts of stability and information, as well as the necessary mathematical formalism. A range of fascinating topics are then explored, including the nature and meaning of complexity, deterministic chaos, coarse graining, scale invariance, network science, machine learning, and complex mental dynamics. These areas are linked to challenging topics in philosophical discourse, such as interlevel relations, notions of meaning, action and agency, creative insight, and understanding. This text will be of interest to students and researchers studying complex systems across a range of disciplines, from physics to cognitive science.

Ontology, Ethics and Economics

  • The contributions of Amartya Sen and Cambridge Social Ontology are two important streams in the Cambridge tradition of political economy. Despite significant commonalities, the nature and limits of their convergence remain largely unexamined. Ontology, Ethics and Economics provides the first comparative analysis of these two schools of economic thought. It argues that coherence across economic, social, and ethical theorising can only be achieved when grounded on a solid ontological foundation. While Sen's work has reintroduced crucial ethical dimensions to economics, his reluctance to address ontology systematically has generated tensions that account for the wide and often contradictory interpretations and applications of his work. Offering an explicit account of social reality and its moral implications within a distinctive philosophical framework, this book shows how ontological inquiry can restore political economy's emancipatory orientation and its capacity to offer a genuine alternative to contemporary mainstream economics.

The Digital Revolution and Institutional Change

  • Digital technologies are reorganizing economies, politics, crime, and international relations faster than existing theories can explain. Rather than treating these changes as separate phenomena, The Digital Revolution and Institutional Change offers a unified framework for understanding how digital innovation reshapes social organization across domains. Drawing on institutional economics, it shows how property rights, transaction costs, and incomplete mental models shape both the adoption of new technologies and society's often flawed responses to them. It argues that international contracting and collective action routinely fails to address the unintended consequences of technological progress and explains why these failures are not accidental but structural. Written by one of the world's foremost experts on New Institutional Economics, this book is the first to analyse the digital revolution from the perspective of the economics of institutions, reframing how we think about technological change in the digital age.

Citizenship Deprivation and the Constitutional State

  • Citizenship deprivation has made a striking return to the political and legal landscapes of liberal democracies. How can we account for this return and the subsequent normalisation of the powers? What explains 'resistances' to this return and variation between state practices? More broadly, what do we learn about citizenship deprivation when we read it through a constitutional lens? This book addresses these key questions through an in-depth, historically grounded, comparative analysis of France and the UK. In the book, citizenship deprivation is revealed not as a narrow counter-terrorism tool but as a racialised migration mechanism embedded in constitutional architectures and rooted in colonial legacies. By connecting citizenship regimes to state's constitutional structures, this book also shows how constitutional stories about citizenship infuse the behaviours of state actors (providing legitimation frames and discourses) and how these stories tie to states' structures, eventually accounting for variations between state practices.

Ethics of Risk Management
  • Taking Compliance Seriously

    30 November 2026
  • The Federal Sentencing Guidelines for Organizations, enacted in 1991, specify a reduced fine for a corporation convicted of a regulatory offense if the corporation had an 'effective compliance and ethics program' at the time of the offense. Prior to their enactment, very few Fortune 500 companies had such programs; within a few years, they all did. This sudden growth points to a financial motive. After all, if compliance had been driven by ethics, these programs should have already been in place. Ethics of Risk Management highlights how corporate practice tends to focus on the firm's financial risks, leaving little to no role for ethical reflection. The book finds this financial approach to compliance lacking and brings ethical issues to the fore. Drawing on multiple case studies, it offers an alternative approach to compliance that tempers risk management with a nuanced jurisprudential view coupled with robust notions of the firm's political obligations.

  • As global challenges continue to intensify, the need for psychology to meaningfully engage with today's most serious problems has never been clearer. This book demonstrates how the discipline can answer this call to action. Written by leading scholars, it offers a clear and comprehensive presentation of the theories and research that contribute to solving our most serious everyday world issues. Chapters explore extremism, polarization, and conflict; environmental and economic deterioration; systemic obstacles to adaptation; football disorder; the influence of AI on young people; weaknesses in STEM education; and the collapse of effective communication and dialogue. Together, these contributions provide both depth and breadth, showing how psychological science can illuminate and address the most pressing global concerns. Unifying these diverse topics into a coherent whole, the volume is an indispensable resource for students, academics, and professionals committed to applying psychology where it matters most.

  • As pointed out by the editors of this unusual volume, studying the development of contemporary Spain is important to understand the challenges, dynamics and limits of political and economic modernization. The contributors of Twisted Modernization bring the theoretical and methodological toolkit of modern political economy to study Spain's long run economic (industrialization) and institutional (capacity, constitutions) processes, the evolution of its economic, political and judicial elites, and how the country's institutional legacies condition its democracy and economic outcomes to this day. Including work from over a dozen of well-known specialists and grounded in novel and systematic data, this volume provides a sober assessment of both the country's achievements and worrying future challenges. It offers key insights on the causes of democratization and growth in general and provides a model for further research on the trajectories of other countries. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Victor Hugo and the Making of Masculinity

  • Victor Hugo's eminence as a writer is bolstered by his reputation for unbridled ambition, prolific talent, and virile sexuality, yet his work is deeply uncomfortable with these aggrandized notions of what it means to be a man. Rereading some of Hugo's most famous writing alongside lesser-known texts, Bradley Stephens reveals how the author of Les Misérables contests normative ideas of manhood in ways that are surprising and urgent for gender studies today. Although Hugo recognized the allure of 'greatness', his writing knowingly resists the patriarchal clichés that were being fastened onto his public image even before he was laid to rest in the Paris Panthéon as one of France's grands hommes in 1885. Hugo channelled nature's spontaneity to understand all forms and types as fluid, not fixed, and his aversion to categorical viewpoints and established hierarchies necessarily questions the binary logic of gender and its naturalization of men's social dominance.

From Reasons to Causes

    30 November 2026
  • Why do we judge an event to be a cause? Holger Andreas and Mario Günther offer a fresh answer: causation is epochetic dependence along an inferential path where each step genuinely depends on the cause. The dependence is called epochetic because the effect must be inferable from its cause after suspending judgment on both. This theory matches everyday judgment in virtually all scenarios, including the classic problems of overdetermination, preemption, and omissions. The authors go on to solve the problems of spurious and simultaneous causation and thereby develop a reductive theory of causation in the spirit of Hume. The book will be useful for students and researchers in philosophy, computer science, cognitive science, and law. It is a must read for anyone who wants to keep up to date with research on one of philosophy's great problems.

  • Throughout the greater Mediterranean world, the remains of Roman monuments can be found in cities and rural areas, displaying the range of architectural imagination and engineering prowess of the Roman Empire. This volume offers a comprehensive overview of architecture throughout the Roman realm. Providing historical context as it relates to key monuments, Fikret Yegül and Diane Favro explore Roman building construction and technology and emphasize how much the Roman architectural tradition owes to the achievements and traditions of indigenous peoples across three continents, leading to an insightful understanding of the concept of 'Romanization.' They also examine architecture in rural environments and buildings for all social classes and genders, while investigating how events and policies, as well as available technologies and materials, shaped design and the built environment. Clearly written and richly illustrated with over 400 images, this book offers a multi-dimensional overview of the Roman built environment and its unique architectural vision and perspective.
