or fiction. >> mr. gibson, some of the books their viewers may see on booktv this fall. what are you publishing quick >> are several things. the first thing i would tell you about is paul roberts book, the info society. in 1879 there is a book called the culture of narcissism, classic and still lives in a defined our american culture that is a very narcissistic culture. paul roberts has picked up from that almost 38 years later in the info society is about the instant gratification society we have created here which has enormous ramifications and personal lives in economics and the economy and politics. he's done a brilliant job. i think i was synthesizing this historic week taking about 40 years, beginning with the rise of the internet at some level and mass communication at that

level. we have created a desire for instant gratification across the board. he takes it back further. his opening example is henry ford versus arthurs on the sunday general motors. henry ford had a one size fits all automobile and he came along and said we can custom make automobiles for people and instant gratification was born nine and it has been carried to extraordinary and extreme of us now. >> how long is mr. been working on this boat quick >> for years. it is the idea of an editor to write a book on the subject. he gave it to polities been working on it for a long time. it's the result of a lot of thinking. >> we've got a book coming out on economics. >> we do. it's called economics, the user's guide, from an economist at cambridge in red. a rather nonconformist economists. he does not agree with neoclassical economics.

quite the contrary. his goal in this book is to explain how the economy around the world works and using historical examples. it is a primer if you go on economics today. a subject that is cloudy. an awful lot of pundits and people who express opinions. there's not a lot of clarity about not only had the economy works, but what economics actually is as a discipline and that is what this is about to demystify economics as a discipline. >> and hygiene chain has uncovered the past by booktv. go to booktv.org, type in his name and watch his past her grandson line. one more book you want to tell us about quick >> and man named robert poole, which is called section 60 and it's a biography of that part of arlington national cemetery, the active part were veterans of the

iraq war in afghanistan war are buried and it is a profile, a biography, a portion of this national shrine that we have because that is the active part of arlington. it's particularly resonant today. he takes us behind the scenes about the cemetery works, starting and opening with the burial of a soldier from the iraq war. so you understand there's a living, breathing organizations here. arlington is really an organism, an extraordinary institution. he wrote a book for years ago are hollow ground which is about the overall history of the cemetery. i have never been there before. i went to matt's really been so moved as driving or walking around arlington. so it's a biography of the active section of arlington, which affects everyone in this country in one way or another. >> and that is some of books
