Heat 2
‘A quarter of a century after his classic heist film Heat, the director Michael Mann returns to the scene of the crime in this absolutely gripping thriller, written with Meg Gardiner. Twin timelines explore the before-and-after of that celluloid clash between the unstoppable bank robber Neil McCauley and the immovable Los Angeles cop Vincent Hanna, with the action ranging from home invasions in suburban Chicago to Chinese crime families in 1990s Paraguay. Sweep, self-confidence and a cinematic sheen make this the most immersive of reads’ The Times

Performance Neuroscience
Human performance is rarely limited by skill alone. It is shaped by how the brain and body coordinate under pressure, fatigue, uncertainty, and opportunity. While performance science and performance psychology have traditionally examined these challenges through behavioral and psychological lenses, advances in neuroscience now allow us to examine performance at its biological core. This book introduces Performance Neuroscience, an emerging field that focuses on understanding and optimizing human performance by integrating brain dynamics, physiology, and behavior. Rather than treating cognition, emotion, and physiology as separate domains, performance neuroscience examines how large-scale brain networks, autonomic regulation, and psychophysiological states interact when people perform at their best. Bringing together contributions from leading researchers, this volume explores the neural and physiological signatures of optimal performance across sport, high-stakes decision making, training, recovery, and creative work. Topics include psychophysiological regulation, functional brain network dynamics, stress and arousal, flow states, contemplative practices, and emerging applications of AI for personalized performance optimization. Throughout the book, the authors address fundamental questions. What distinguishes peak performance states at the neural and physiological level? How does cognition reorganize under pressure? Are there identifiable brain network patterns associated with flow and resilience? How do stress and arousal facilitate or impair performance, and when do classical models such as the Yerkes–Dodson relationship break down? Can neuroscience inform smarter recovery, training, and real-time performance support? Performance Neuroscience offers a unifying framework for scientists, practitioners, and applied professionals seeking to understand not only whether humans perform well, but also how the brain and body adapt to enable high performance.

Science Under Siege
How to Fight the Five Most Powerful Forces that Threaten Our World‘Once upon a time, scientists could assume that people would take their hard work, believe it, and put it to use. No longer — as Michael Mann and Peter Hotez make painfully clear, a concentrated assault by special interests has made the work of science painful and perilous. Science Under Siege is a well-researched guide and offers some powerful ideas about how to fight back.’

Soldatenleben
Das 18. Jahrhundert ist durch weitreichende Verwerfungen und Umbrüche gekennzeichnet. Der Ständestaat verliert an Konturen und die zünftig regulierten Arbeitsmärkte lösen sich auf. In dieser Zeit wird auch das 'stehende Heer' mit seinen permanent unter Waffen gehaltenen Soldaten eingerichtet. Auf den neuen militärischen Arbeitsmärkten wurden in den 1780er Jahren über Subsidienverträge Soldaten ausgehoben und in die Dienste Englands und Hollands gestellt, um deren Truppen bei ihren kolonialen Kriegen in Afrika und Asien zu unterstützen. Michael Mann schildert den Alltag dieser Soldaten von der Rekrutierung, der Ausbildung, dem Transport und den wenigen Kriegseinsätzen in Übersee bis hin zu Hochzeiten, Familienleben, Freizeit und Tod. Es war nämlich im 18. Jahrhundert durchaus erstrebenswert, sich nicht nur beim Militär einzufinden, sondern sich auch für den Auslandsdienst zu melden. The 18th century was characterised by far-reaching upheavals and disruptions. The corporate state lost its shape, and the guild-regulated labor markets dissolved. During this period, the "standing army" with its permanently armed soldiers was established. In the 1780s, soldiers were recruited through subsidy contracts in the new military labor markets and placed in the service of England and Holland to support their troops in their colonial wars in Africa and Asia. Michael Mann describes the daily lives of these soldiers, from recruitment, training, transport, and the few overseas deployments to weddings, family life, leisure, and death. In the 18th century, it was certainly desirable not only to join the military but also to volunteer for foreign service.

On Wars
“Ambitious. . . . On Wars is an enlightening haul for much of its journey and a brisk read too.”—Fred Kaplan, New York Times Book ReviewA History Today Book of the Year, 2024“This is not just an ambitious study of war through history but an attempt to work out how to avoid it. . . . [Mann has] given us a sobering account of a human trait that shows no sign of going out of fashion.”—Melanie McDonagh, The Standard“Masterful and monumental, Michael Mann’s new book shows how destructive and delusional it has been, throughout history and across the world, to try achieving one’s end through war.”—Andreas Wimmer, author of Waves of War“The greatest comparative historical sociologist of our time here considers the motivations for warfare in the world and through recorded time. The result is breathtaking, and shocking in its normative challenges—particularly in its no-hold-barred attack on the ‘realism’ of international relations specialists.”—John A. Hall, McGill University“Mann explains why wars happen although they seldom achieve their ends, whether material aggrandizement or altruistic ideals. On Wars again shows why Mann is the Max Weber of our time.”—Randall Collins, author of Explosive Conflict: Time Dynamics of Violence
