Exploring the mathematical foundations of generalized probabilistic theories (GPTs), the book delves into the operational language of quantum theory and the complexities of subsystem integration within convex operational theories. Jonathan Steinberg examines the algebraic nature of sections, categorization structures, and state space transformations. He interprets tensor products as a specific type of section, applying this insight to quantum theory while contrasting it with algebraic approaches. The work culminates in a comprehensive characterization of low-dimensional sections across various quantum systems using matrix pencil theory.

A comprehensive new biography exploring the greatness and limits of the 'Iron Chancellor', Otto von Bismarck: a political genius who remade Europe and united Germany between 1862 and 1890 by the sheer power of his great personality.

Why Switzerland?, first published in 1976, offers a unique analysis of the structures that make Switzerland work and provides a short, concise "working model" for the visitor or student. Linking an analysis of the microeconomy to the major features in politics, history, religion and language, it shows how a "bottom up" society has survived in a world of "top down" states. For this new edition Jonathan Steinberg has completely revised and extended his text, and a number of unusual and attractive illustrations have been added.

A reprint of one of the earliest social and political studies of the pre-World War II naval arms race between Britain and Germany, this text looks at and comments on the initial German plans for the drive to world power through the construction of a high seas fleet.

German and Italian fascist armies in the Second World War treated the Jews quite differently. Jews who fell into the hands of the German army ended up in concentration camps; none of those taken by the Italians suffered the same fate. Yet the protectors of the Jews were no philo-Semites, nor were they (often) great respecters of human life. Some of those same officers had sanctioned savage atrocities against Ethiopians and Arabs in the years before the war. Jonathan Steinberg uses this remarkable and poignant story to unravel the motives and forces underpinning both Fascism and Nazism. As a renowned historian of both Germany and Italy, he is uniquely placed to answer the underlying question; why?
