Since the rise of Napster and other file-sharing services in its wake, most of us have assumed that intellectual piracy is a product of the digital age and that it threatens creative expression as never before. The Motion Picture Association of America, for instance, claimed that in 2005 the film industry lost $2.3 billion in revenue to piracy online. But here Adrian Johns shows that piracy has a much longer and more vital history than we have realized—one that has been largely forgotten and is little understood. Piracy explores the intellectual property wars from the advent of print culture in the fifteenth century to the reign of the Internet in the twenty-first. Brimming with broader implications for today’s debates over open access, fair use, free culture, and the like, Johns’s book ultimately argues that piracy has always stood at the center of our attempts to reconcile creativity and commerce—and that piracy has been an engine of social, technological, and intellectual innovations as often as it has been their adversary. From Cervantes to Sonny Bono, from Maria Callas to Microsoft, from Grub Street to Google, no chapter in the story of piracy evades Johns’s graceful analysis in what will be the definitive history of the subject for years to come.

Now in its fifteenth edition, The Rough Guide to Paris brings the perfect mix of fresh research and expert knowledge to Europe's most enchanting city. Each neighbourhood is explored in depth, with all the sights - from the must-sees to the more offbeat - covered by Rough Guides' experienced authors. The surrounding region features too in the "Day-trips from Paris" chapter, and the whole lot is illustrated with beautiful photography throughout the guide. Full-colour maps ensure you'll find your way from sight to sight (or from bar to bar) with the minimum of fuss. Combine this with accurate practical information on everything from public transport to opening hours and museum passes, and you'll soon be browsing the Marais, gliding on a boat along the Seine and sampling the best bistrots like a true Parisian. The best of the Paris' cafés, restaurants and nightlife - from the high-end and exclusive to edgier new hotspots - are reviewed in Rough Guides' trademark honest and to-the-point style. All accommodation budgets are catered for, too, whether you're after a grande dame city institution or a backpacker-friendly party hostel. Both for weekend breaks and longer stays, The Rough Guide to Paris fits the bill.
