미술관에 간 의학자

문명을 괴멸시킨 전염병부터 마음속 생채기까지진료실 밖에서 만난 명화 속 의학 이야기진료실에서 보내는 시간 다음으로 미술관에서 많은 시간을 보내는 의사가 있다. 그는 오늘도 흰 가운을 벗고 병원을 나와 미술관으로 향한다. 그가 미술관에 간 까닭은 무엇일까?상반된 분야처럼 느껴지는 의학과 미술은 ‘인간’이라는 커다란 공통분모를 가지고 있다. 의학과 미술의 중심에는 생로병사를 숙명처럼 안고 살아가는 인간이 있다. 다빈치의 『인체 비례도』처럼 인간의 신체적 완전성을 담고 있는 그림이 있는가 하면, 푸젤리의 『악몽』처럼 인간의 정신세계 가장 밑바닥에 있는 무의식을 탐사하는 그림이 있다. 고야의 『디프테리아』는 질병에 신음하는 인간의 모습을 생생히 묘사하고 있다. 브뢰헬의 『맹인을 이끄는 맹인』은 엑스레이와 CT 스캐너 같은 현대의 의료 장비보다 병세를 더 상세하게 투영한다.의학자에게 미술관은 진료실이며, 캔버스 속 인물들은 진료실을 찾은 환자와 다름없다. 그림 속 인물들은 질병에 몸과 마음을 잠식당해 고통스러워하고, 삶의 유한성에 탄식한다. 그러다가도 질병과 당당히 맞서 승리하기도 한다. 그들의 고백은 인간의 실존적 고통을 담고 있기에, 가장 보편적인 인간의 이야기다.사람의 생명을 다루는 의학은 차가운 이성과 뜨거운 감성이 교류하는 학문이다. 명화는 의학에 뜨거운 온기를 불어넣는다. 이 책은 의학의 주요 분기점들을 소개할 뿐만 아니라, 명화라는 매력적인 이야기꾼의 입을 빌려 의학을 쉽고 친근하게 설명하고 있다.

미술관에 간 물리학자

명화를 통해 만물의 이치를 탐구하다!물리학은 만물의 이치를 탐구하는 학문이다. 구름은 어떻게 생성되는지, 사물의 형태나 색을 어떻게 인지하는지, 소리는 어떻게 전달되는지, 자전하는 지구에서 어떻게 떨어지지 않고 버틸 수 있는지……. 물리학자는 자연과 우주의 본질을 탐구하는 사람들이다. 만물의 본질을 각자의 언어로 궁구(窮究) 한다는 차원에서 과학자의 일과 예술가의 일은 다르지 않다.이 책은 명화에서 물리학의 핵심 개념과 원리를 찾아 소개한다. 샤갈의 성 슈테판 교회 스테인드글라스에는 퀀텀닷과 나노입자의 과학, 다빈치의 [모나리자]에는 ‘꿈의 전자파’라 불리는 테라헤르츠파의 과학, 마그리트의 [이미지의 배신]에는 현대물리학의 큰 축인 양자역학, 몬드리안의 [빨강, 파랑, 노랑의 구성]에는 그래핀 같은 낮은 차원의 물질세계를 설명하는 과학이 담겨 있다. 그림에서 찾아낸 물리 법칙은 수식으로 설명하는 것보다 훨씬 쉬울 뿐만 아니라 아름답다. 이 책은 ‘프리즘’처럼 좀처럼 알아채기 힘든 물리학의 아름다움을 보여준다.


Introducing Comparative Politics (5th Edition)

Organized thematically around important questions in comparative politics--who rules? what explains political behavior? where and why?--Introducing Comparative Politics, Fifth Edition, integrates a set of extended case studies of 11 countries that vividly illustrate issues in cross-national context. Serving as touchstones, the cases are placed within the chapters where they make the most sense --not separated from the theory or in a separate volume--helping students make connections between the two earlier in the semester. The book's hybrid organization gives students a more holistic view of comparative politics.

노인과 바다

어니스트 헤밍웨이 / 이종인 옮김

'열린책들 세계문학' 198권. 20세기 미국 문학을 대표하는 작가, 어니스트 헤밍웨이의 소설선집. 중편소설인 '노인과 바다'와 함께 '킬리만자로의 눈', '프랜시스 매코머의 짧고 행복한 생애', '깨끗하고 불빛 환한 곳' 등 헤밍웨이가 자신의 대표작이라 밝힌 단편소설까지 총 8편의 작품을 수록했다.헤밍웨이는 하드보일드한 문체를 사용하는 작가이다. 간결하고 정확하게 의도하는 곳에 의도하는 단어를 배치한다. 따라서 그의 작품을 제대로 읽기 위해서는 그 특유의 문체를 살린 번역이 필수적이다. 이번에 세계문학 시리즈로 출간된 <노인과 바다>는 그의 문체를 살리는 데 주력했다. 하드보일드한 번역으로 재탄생한 이번 작품으로 헤밍웨이의 정제된 언어를 오롯이 느낄 수 있다.그동안 있던 판본에서 많이 눈에 띈 오역도 바로잡았다. 문체와 함께 가장 주력한 부분이 바로 번역의 정확성이었다. 원작의 의미나 작가의 의도를 오해할 수 있는 요소를 배제하려 의역을 가능한 한 줄여 번역 작품을 읽는 독자와 작품 사이에 놓인 필연적인 거리를 최소화하려 노력했다.'노인과 바다'의 주 무대는 바다이다. 따라서 작품에 등장하는 바다 생물들에 대한 지식이 없다면 헤밍웨이가 의도한 이미지를 머릿속에 선명하게 그리기는 쉽지 않을 것이다. 그래서 독자들의 이해를 돕기 위해 작품에 등장하는 주요 바다 생물들의 삽화를 수록했다.

클림트 (빈에서 만난 황금빛 키스의 화가)

(주)북이십일 21세기북스

클래식 클라우드 3권. 누구나 알고 있지만 아무도 미처 제대로 알고 있지 못한 클림트를 제대로 만나는 기회를 선사하는 책이다. 유럽의 예술과 문화, 역사에 대한 여러 책을 출간한 전원경 작가는 "사람은 누구나 자신이 머물렀던 곳의 영향을 받는다"는 생각으로 클림트의 주요 장소들을 직접 찾았다.클림트가 평생 살았던 터전이자 오스트리아 제국의 수도였던 빈, 여름의 더위를 피해 휴가를 떠났던 아터 호수, 대표작들이 탄생한 황금시대의 영감을 준 중세도시 이탈리아 라벤나에서 저자는 인간 클림트와 예술가 클림트의 발자취를 발견한다. 빈에서 라벤나에 이르는 '클림트로의 길'을 따라 걸으며 각각의 장소의 의미와 그곳에서 살고 사랑하고 그림을 그렸던 클림트를 상상한다. 그리고 그의 위대한 작품의 기원을 모색한다.


미술관에 간 화학자

과학, 교육, 예술 등 각계 전문가들이 선정한이 시대 최고의 과학ㆍ예술 교양서!각계각층의 권위 있는 전문가들로부터 격찬을 받아온 『미술관에 간 화학자』가 내용을 한층 증보해 재탄생했다. 이번 개정증보판에서는 미켈란젤로, 기베르티, 브뢰헬, 틴토레토 등 초판에서 다루지 않은 거장들을 비롯해, 김홍도, 신윤복, 장승업 등 우리 화가들까지 조명했다. 특히 ‘미술관에서 나누는 과학토크’ 코너를 신설하여 미술 속 과학이야기를 한층 더 재미있고 유익하게 풀어냈다.기베르티의 ‘천국의 문’을 다루면서 청동의 진화 과정을 과학사적으로 접근했고, ‘화가를 죽인 흰색물감’ 꼭지에서는 흰색물감의 원료인 납에 얽힌 문화사적 에피소드를 소개했다. 이밖에도 산소의 발견, 거울의 반사원리, 양자역학과 터널링 효과 등 명화 속 흥미진진한 과학이야기들을 풍성하게 업데이트 했다. 화학자인 저자의 말에 따르면, 미술은 화학에서 태어나 화학을 먹고사는 예술이라고 한다.미술의 주재료인 물감이 화학물질이기 때문이다. 캔버스 위 물감이 세월을 이기지 못해 퇴색하거나 발색하는 것도 모두 화학작용에서 비롯한다. 명화는 화학자 손에 들린 프리즘에 투영되어 그동안 어느 누구에게도 들키지 않았던 흥미진진한 속내를 비로소 드러낸다. 화학자에게 명화는 현미경 속 결정구조만큼 매력적인 연구대상이다. 저자인 화학자가 실험실과 미술관을 동분서주하며 명화들을 세심하게 관찰해온 이유가 바로 여기에 있다.

The Elixir of Death

A Crowner John Mystery #10 Coroner Sir John gets mixed up in alchemy in this twisty instalment in the Crowner John medieval mystery series, set in twelfth-century England. 1195. Prince John plots to seize the throne from his brother, Richard the Lionheart – and he is supported in his wicked schemes by King Philip of France, who offers to help John financially by sending him a mysterious alchemist, a Mohammedan named Nizam, who claims to be able to transmute base metals into gold.But Nizam never makes it England alive. The ship transporting him and his retainers to the Devon tin mines is found wrecked off the south Devon coast, its crew savagely slaughtered. And shortly afterwards, Sir Peter le Calve, a Norman knight living near Exeter, is also found foully murdered, his head stuck on the rood screen of the cathedral.It’s up to Sir John de Wolfe, the county coroner, to find a motive and connection between the killings – and it’s clear that his unscrupulous brother-in-law, the disgraced ex-sheriff and known Prince John-sympathiser, Richard de Revelle, has something to hide…

To Kill a Mockingbird

Compassionate, dramatic, and deeply moving, To Kill A Mockingbird takes readers to the roots of human behaviour— to innocence and experience, kindness and cruelty, love and hatred, humour and pathos - and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming of age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father - a crusading local lawyer - risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.  With warmth and understanding, Harper Lee brilliantly recreates not only her characters but a whole town and its way of life.  Scout and Jem Finch lose their innocence when their lawyer father defends a Negro charged with the rape of a white girl.  The lawyer is the town's conscience, but conscience makes more than cowards... “All the magic and truth that might seem deceptive or exaggerated in a factual account of a small town unfold beautifully in a new first novel called To Kill a Mockingbird. At a time when so many machine-tooled novels are simply documentaries disguised behind a few fictional changes, it is pleasing to recommend a book that shows what a novelist can accomplish with quite familiar situations … To Kill A Mockingbird opens the chrysalis of childhood quietly and dramatically … Miss Lee’s characters are people to cherish in this winning first novel by a fresh writer with something significant to say, south and north.”  –  The New York Times, 1960Harper Lee was born in the Alabama town of Monroeville, the youngest of four children of Amasa Coleman Lee and Frances Cunningham Finch Lee. Having written several long stories, Harper Lee located an agent in November 1956. Within a year, she had the first draft. Working with J. B. Lippincott & Co. editor Tay Hohoff, she completed To Kill a Mockingbird

When Body Language Goes Bad

"Dilbert is easily one of the most clever and consistently funny comics in current circulation. Like all great comic strips, it provides a much-needed daily dose of comedy and, most importantly, keeps its finger firmly planted on the pulse of truth while doing so."Some might think that the corporate scandals of 2002 could make it difficult to find anything funny about today's business world. But When Body Language Goes Bad proves it will take more than that to slow down the inventive wit of Scott Adams, who clearly is never at a loss for finding hysterical things to mock in corporate life.This marks the 21st collection of Adams' wildly popular comic strip, Dilbert, which is featured in more than 2,000 newspapers worldwide. This book updates loyal readers on the so-called careers of Dilbert, Alice, Wally, Asok the intern, and other regulars as they wallow through pointless projects, mismanaged company takeovers, futile team-building exercises...

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.For decades, we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Mason doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons...

'When I began working on it in 2005, it was simply an exercise to help me examine the other side of Eclipse, which I was editing at the time. I thought it might end up as a short story that I could include on my website. Then, when work started on The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide, I thought the Guide would be a good fit for my Bree story. However, the story grew longer than I anticipated, until it was too long to fit into the Guide.

Ambush

Captain Zeke Kinsley, commanding the Royal Galactic Naval Cruiser, The Lucky Strike, was only too happy to volunteer for searching out stragglers from a just ended minor system conflict. After the last several years of seeing heavy action, he and his crew were looking forward to a simple task that should be relatively peaceful. With their sister ship, the Destroyer Jackal, they enter a nearby system unprepared for the ambush by an armada awaiting them. At first, they believe it is the group they were searching for, only to find out it is an alien race known as the Chohish. As the Jackal flees to get help, Captain Kinsley battles through one of the Chohish fleets in a desperate attempt to reach one of the two populated planets in this system. Making it finally to the main planet just ahead of the enemy, he meets the very people he was chasing. They join forces in a frantic bid to save the survivors on the two planets. The fate of millions depend on them holding off multiple enemy fleets until help arrives. Desperate, they attack the Chohish at every opportunity in a hit and run scenario. But will that be enough? Can help arrive in time?

Disputed Decisions of World War II : Decision Science and Game Theory Perspectives

A former Harvard professor of decision science and game theory draws on those disciplines in this review of controversial strategic and tactical decisions of World War II. Allied leaders--although outstanding in many ways--sometimes botched what now is termed meta-decision making or deciding how to decide. Operation Jubilee, a single-division raid on Dieppe, France, in August 1942, for example, illustrated the pitfalls of groupthink. In the Allied invasion of North Africa three months later, American and British leaders fell victim to the planning fallacy: having unrealistically rosy expectations of an easy victory. In Sicily in the summer of 1943, they violated the millennia-old principle of command unity--now re-endorsed and elaborated on by modern theorists. Had Allied strategists understood the game theory of bluffing, in January 1944 they might well not have landed two-plus divisions at Anzio in Italy.


Lord Of The Flies

At the dawn of the next world war, a plane crashes on an uncharted island, stranding a group of schoolboys. At first, with no adult supervision, their freedom is something to celebrate; this far from civilization the boys can do anything they want. Anything. They attempt to forge their own society, failing, however, in the face of terror, sin and evil. And as order collapses, as strange howls echo in the night, as terror begins its reign, the hope of adventure seems as far from reality as the hope of being rescued. Labeled a parable, an allegory, a myth, a morality tale, a parody, a political treatise, even a vision of the apocalypse, Lord of the Flies is perhaps our most memorable novel about “the end of innocence, the darkness of man’s heart.”

Death in Supernatural: Critical Essays


The Winter King

A village trapped in winter, a tyrannical god, and a girl who will do anything to keep her family alive...Ever since Cora's father disappeared through the ice, whispers about her family's "curse" have grown increasingly louder. Desperate to help her mother and siblings survive another bleak season in the Winter King's frozen grasp, Cora begins to bend (and even break) the rules she has kept since she was a little girl. But when she discovers a secret that's much bigger than herself, she realizes too late that she has put herself--and those she loves--in even greater peril.

Redes y Negocios Globales en el Mundo Ibérico, Siglos XVI y XVIII

Nikolaus Böttcher / Bernd Hausberger / Antonio Ibarra (coords)

Iberoamericana, Vervuert, El Colegio de Mexico

Los diez ensayos reunidos en este volumen ilustran, todos a su manera, cómo puede aprovecharse el concepto de red para analizar el comercio en el mundo ibérico entre el siglo XVI y principios del XIX. Trazan empíricamente el conjunto de relaciones en que se ven insertados los actores sociales y reconstruyen cómo usan, aprovechan e instrumentalizan las estructuras, instituciones y valores a su alcance. Dada la complejidad de las relaciones que constituyen las redes mercantiles, su análisis comprende tanto factores económicos como sociales, políticos y culturales.


Las cuarenta parábolas de Jesús (Spanish Edition)

Las parábolas de Jesús forman parte de la literatura universal. En estos relatos, a menudo provocadores, llegamos a conocer más de cerca el entorno de Jesús. Es un mundo variopinto, lleno de penas y alegrías, con cotidianidad y fiestas, aventuras, crímenes y profunda humanidad. Con la ayuda de este colorido material, Jesús esboza su mensaje del Reino de Dios: es decir, la buena noticia de un nuevo mundo que Dios está creando ahora, en medio de las viejas y anquilosadas relaciones de la historia humana. En este libro, el especialista en Nuevo Testamento Gerhard Lohfink se ha atrevido a interpretar todas las parábolas de forma comprensible para el público general y teniendo siempre en cuenta el estado actual de la investigación. Un libro realmente extraordinario.

Dana Andrews : The Face of Noir

Dana Andrews, arguably the finest minimalist actor of his generation, as one critic commented, could convey more with one look than many actors could with a soliloquy. In a film career spanning nearly five decades, Andrews appeared in some of Hollywood's most prestigious productions, including The Ox-Bow Incident (1943) and The Best Years of Our Lives (1946). His unique screen presence was shown at its best in such film noir classics as Laura (1944) and Where the Sidewalk Ends (1950). Beginning with an absorbing biographical chapter, this critical survey of Dana Andrews' screen career features a complete filmography with synopses, reviews, behind-the-scenes anecdotes and insightful comments from Andrews and his coworkers. A chronological list of television, radio and theater credits is included.

Communication Alternatives in Autism : Perspectives on Typing and Spelling Approaches for the Nonspeaking

“Communication Alternatives in Autism is a book that has been needed for a long time. It gives voice to the thoughts and humanity of individuals with autism who use various means to communicate via the written word. The experience and knowledge of Dr. Edlyn Peña who is both a parent and a scholar shines through to help us better understand the lives and journey of a remarkable group of authors. Enjoy!”—Anne M. Donnellan, professor emerita, University of Wisconsin-Madison and University of San Diego “In Communication Alternatives in Autism, Dr. Edlyn Peña addresses one of the most controversial topics in research and education for non-speaking communicators and those with limited speech—the authenticity of communication through typing and spelling. It is well known that a small group of critics have dominated discourse disputing the validity of such communication…. For those who believe ongoing discourse should not be shut down, and especially for those who already think the die is cast, this important work is a significant step forward in understanding why we must intensify our efforts to understand and give voice to those who cannot speak.”—Barry M. Prizant, Ph.D., CC-SLP, Brown University, author of Uniquely Human: A Different Way of Seeing Autism Ten autistic self-advocates share their experiences with alternative forms of communication such as rapid prompting method (RPM) and facilitated communication (FC), both highly controversial. Their narratives document the complexities that autistic individuals navigate--in both educational and community settings--when choosing to use approaches that utilize letter boards and keyboards. While the controversies remain--RPM requires further scientific study, and FC is subject to criticism about confirmation bias--these individuals share powerful stories in the context of aiming for disability rights. The book concludes with a chapter about best practices for educators, particularly for schools and colleges that have student

Do Papa Herético e Outros Opúsculos

O livro consta de 15 opúsculos divididos entre as seguintes seções: a ordem das disciplinas; lógica; as artes do belo; metafísica; teologia sagrada; e vinculados pelo fato de serem estritamente tomistas, ou seja, segundo o espírito e a letra da doutrina de santo tomás de aquino. E, embora os quinze opúsculos sejam todos importantes tanto quanto o assunto como quanto a seu aprofundamento, destaca-se, por sua atualidade e urgência, o que dá título ao livro: “do papa herético”, que constitui cerca de ¼ do volume. Com efeito, lê-se no proêmio do opúsculo: “o chamado magistério conciliar, e em especial o de francisco, impõe a muitos de nós um grave dilema. E, de fato, têm-se-lhe dado duas respostas gerais. A primeira resposta, intencionando ater-se à promessa de cristo de que as portas do inferno não prevaleceriam (cf. Mat. 16, 18), termina por calar-se diante dos desvios da fé em que incorre o magistério conciliar, ou até por segui-los, sendo embora ambas as coisas inconvenientes. A segunda – que busca em geral seguir a tradição – reage, resiste, opõe-se a tal magistério, mas de dois modos principais e muito diferentes. O primeiro modo é o do sedevacantismo, que considera que o sujeito em que a autoridade magisterial reside de modo mais pleno – o papa – já não o é por herético, e ao considerá-lo põe implicitamente (ainda que involuntariamente) que acabou a própria igreja. Mas ao segundo, prudentíssimo, o iniciado por dom marcel lefebvre, deram-se duas fundamentações teológicas principais: a primeira é a doutrina das “duas igrejas” – a nosso ver, insatisfatória –, enquanto a segunda é a que se acha na obra do padre álvaro calderón a candeia debaixo do alqueire – a cujas conclusões aderimos inteiramente. Não se espere deste opúsculo, todavia, o que ele não dará: nem uma opinião quanto ao modo com que se deve resistir ao magistério conciliar, nem uma declaração formal de que os papas conciliares são heréticos. Este opúsculo, em verdade, nem sequer tem por sujeito o…

Аничкина революция

Венкстерн Н.

Роман "Аничкина революция" Натальи Венкстерн (1891-1957), писательницы и драматурга, дружившей с Булгаковым и сотрудничавшей с МХАТом, вышел в 1928 году и почти сразу был запрещен - якобы из-за наличия в нем слишком откровенных сцен. В книге рассказывается о жизни институтки Анички: ее выход в самостоятельную жизнь совпал с событиями 1917 года, но, в отличие от многих других молодых людей, героиня Венкстерн, воспитанница старой культуры, не может найти себе места в новом мире и живет прошлым. Этот роман, представляющий сугубо женский взгляд на послереволюционные события, переиздается впервые спустя ровно 90 лет после выхода в свет и продолжает нашу серию "?", посвященную художественной и мемуарной прозе забытых русских писательниц XIX-XX веков.Подробнее: https://www.labirint.ru/books/711221/

Одеяло из лоскутьев

Роман писательницы и поэтессы Любови Копыловой (1885—1936) «Одеяло из лоскутьев» был написан в 1934 году. Во многом это автобиографическое произведение, отражающее опыт интеллигентки в первом поколении, вышедшей из низов и на деле знающей, как сложно было заниматься интеллектуальным трудом женщинам в дореволюционной России. В чем-то взгляды главной героини можно назвать феминистскими, но подтолкнули ее к ним не журнальные статьи и не книги, а сама жизнь.Настоящим изданием Common Place открывает серию «О», в которой будет выходить художественная и мемуарная проза забытых русских писательниц XIX-XX веков. Идея серии возникла в попытке ответить на вопрос, почему до 1917 года в истории русской литературы так мало женских имен: мы хотим показать, что женское письмо в России имеет более давнюю традицию, чем принято думать. «?» — не только и не столько «занимательная археология», сколько восполнение лакун, возвращение читателю забытых женских имен и важных текстов.Подробнее: https://www.labirint.ru/books/775828/

In My Father’s Court

In My Father’s Court, or Beth Din, as this book is called in the Yiddish original, is in a certain sense a literary experiment. It is an attempt to combine two styles—that of memoirs and that of belles-lettres—and its approach to description and its manner of conveying situations differ from those used in my other writings. The pieces here were first published as a series under my journalistic pseudonym, Isaac Warshawsky, in the Jewish Daily Forward. The idea had been with me a long time: when still very young, I had actually thought of writing my recollections of the Beth Din.


Enemies, A Love Story


The Family Moskat

The vanished way of life of Eastern European Jews in the early part of the twentieth century is the subject of this extraordinary novel. All the strata of this complex society were populated by powerfully individual personalities, and the whole community pulsated with life and vitality. The affairs of the patriarchal Meshulam Moskat and the unworldly Asa Heshel Bannet provide the center of the book, but its real focus is the civilization that was destroyed forever in the gas chambers of the Second World War.

Global Warming False Alarm, 2nd Edition

This revised edition of Ralph Alexander’s 2009 book features approximately 50% new or updated material, including an expanded chapter on alternative explanations to CO2 as the main source of global warming. Newly added sections in the 2nd edition cover temperature tampering by the three major custodians of the world’s temperature data, so as to exaggerate the global warming rate; the Climategate scandal; the use of peer review as an alarmist weapon; the neglected influence of the sun on our climate, including the amplification of solar activity by the oceans; heat that is suppposedly hiding in the deep ocean, but can’t be found; and more. The new book also describes how the UN’s IPCC and other alarmists manipulate climate data, discusses the lack of warming for more than a decade – about which alarmists are in denial, and explains the folly of carbon pricing schemes for regulating CO2. Finally, the author reflects on the reasons that so many people erroneously believe recent climate change comes from human activity, when there’s ample evidence to the contrary.

Babel: Or the Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution

Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller from the author of The Poppy War “Absolutely phenomenal. One of the most brilliant, razor-sharp books I've had the pleasure of reading that isn't just an alternative fantastical history, but an interrogative one; one that grabs colonial history & the Industrial Revolution, turns it over, & shakes it out.” -- Shannon Chakraborty, bestselling author of The City of Brass From award-winning author R.

There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, & Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation &, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization. For Robin, Oxford is a utopia dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge.

Графиня де Монсоро

Александр Дюма

Королева Марго; 2

Действие романа знаменитого французского писателя Александра Дюма происходит в эпоху гугенотских войн, во времена правления Генриха III. Но исторические события - описанные ярко и убедительно - являются лишь фоном сложной любовной интриги. Коварству, развращенности и лицемерию королевского двора автор противопоставляет благородство, искренность и верность бесстрашного графа де Бюсси и его возлюбленной Дианы.

Ожерелье королевы

Александр Дюма

Арт-Бизнес-Центр

Записки врача; 2

«Ожерелье королевы», второй роман из серии «Записки врача», продолжение «Джузеппе Бальзамо», написан Дюма в 1849–1850 гг. Он также посвящен интригам во Франции авантюриста графа Алессандро Калиостро, в предыдущей книге выступавшего под именем Джузеппе Бальзамо. Повествование Дюма развертывается на фоне подлинного исторического события — кражи чрезвычайно дорогого бриллиантового ожерелья, что было предложено королеве Марии Антуанетте, жене Людовика XVI. Эту аферу, которая сильно скомпрометировала монархию и в которой оказались замешаны сама королева и видные придворные, современники называли прологом Великой Французской революции.

Сказания о людях тайги; 2

«Конь Рыжий» – продолжение романа «Хмель» и вторая часть знаменитой трилогии Алексея Черкасова «Сказания о людях тайги», созданная им в соавторстве с супругой Полиной Москвитиной. Роман написан в 1972 году – позже других книг трилогии, и посвящен бурным событиям Гражданской войны.Сибирь охвачена белым террором, и даже непреклонным старообрядцам не удалось остаться в стороне от политических событий: Белая Елань разделилась на два лагеря, взбудораженная стремительным бегом грозного и неумолимого времени. «Время не конь, не объездишь, не уймешь – летит-мчится, а куда? И как там будет завтра, послезавтра? Погибель или здравие? К добру или к худу утащит за собой суматошное время?..»Необходимость выбрать свой путь встает и перед главным героем романа – казачьим хорунжим Ноем Лебедем по прозвищу Конь Рыжий, поступками которого руководит незыблемая вера в торжество добра и справедливости: «Совесть мою никто не свергнет. И честь. На том весь белый свет стоит».

Trail of the Fallen (Tommy Smith High Mountain 4)

Tommy Smith, former sniper and Army combat veteran, wants nothing more than to be left alone to raise his young family with his deputy-sheriff wife, Sarah, as they run a wilderness outfitting business in the eastern Sierra ranching country where they grew up. A mass breakout at Folsom Prison shatters their mountain idyll and brings back the PTSD that Tommy hoped he'd left on the battlefields of Afghanistan. Although Folsom is a hundred fifty miles west, every new atrocity by the convicted killers places them closer and closer to Tommy and his family. The escape follows by some months the theft of prototype high-end sniper rifles from the nearby Marine base, a theft that the Corps was trying to keep as quiet as possible. Soon, Tommy discovers that the list of escapees includes a name he never wanted to hear again—that of Sarah's psychopathic first husband, whom Tommy had helped put in prison. Sidelined by law enforcement because of his closeness to the case, Tommy strikes out horseback and alone in a blizzard, where he must overcome his own demons to fight the all-too-real demon waiting for him up the trail.

Mr. President

Nobel Prize–winning Guatemalan author Miguel Ángel Asturias’s masterpiece—the original Latin American dictator novel and pioneering work of magical realism—in its first new English translation in more than half a century, featuring a foreword by Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa A Penguin Classic In an unnamed country, an egomaniacal dictator schemes to dispose of a political adversary and maintain his grip on power. As tyranny takes hold, everyone is forced to choose between compromise and death. Inspired by life under the regime of President Manuel Estrada Cabrera of Guatemala, where it was banned for many years, and infused with exuberant lyricism, Mayan symbolism, and Guatemalan vernacular, Nobel Prize winner Miguel Ángel Asturias’s magnum opus is at once a surrealist masterpiece, a blade-sharp satire of totalitarianism, and a gripping portrait of psychological terror.

The Blackpill Theory: Why Incels Are Right and You Are Wrong

Today it seems that almost everyone has a view on what it means to be an "incel" and why these sexless men behave the way they do. The irony is that very little of this debate is informed sincerely with scientific data or by what these men have to say. This engaging book takes an in-depth look at three contemporary issues - lookism, romantic satisfaction, and modern dating - by exploring how incel men experience them in a variety of circumstances. As the very first published approach to inceldom of its kind, Dr. Castle draws on qualitative and quantitative data as well as addressing a theory of social interaction, which is branded The Blackpill. The author demonstrates the importance of developing an empirically informed approach to men's societal experiences based on an understanding of the significance of physical attractiveness. This is an important and timely book into the social problem of male inceldom which be invaluable to researchers in sociology and gender studies, as well as professionals concerned with men's health.

The Technological Society

As insightful and wise today as it was when originally published in 1954, Jacques Ellul's The Technological Society has become a classic in its field, laying the groundwork for all other studies of technology and society that have followed. Ellul offers a penetrating analysis of our technological civilization, showing how technology—which began innocuously enough as a servant of humankind—threatens to overthrow humanity itself in its ongoing creation of an environment that meets its own ends. No conversation about the dangers of technology and its unavoidable effects on society can begin without a careful reading of this book. "A magnificent book . . . He goes through one human activity after another and shows how it has been technicized, rendered efficient, and diminished in the process.”—Harper's “One of the most important books of the second half of the twentieth-century. In it, Jacques Ellul convincingly demonstrates that technology, which we continue to conceptualize as the servant of man, will overthrow everything that prevents the internal logic of its development, including humanity itself—unless we take necessary steps to move human society out of the environment that 'technique' is creating to meet its own needs.”—The Nation “A description of the way in which technology has become completely autonomous and is in the process of taking over the traditional values of every society without exception, subverting and suppressing these values to produce at last a monolithic world culture in which all non-technological difference and variety are mere appearance.”—Los Angeles Free Press

Players such as Max Lange and Cochrane, known to the chess public only by the name given to a fierce attack or gambit, are brought to life.

The Liberal Mind

The Liberal Mind attempts to uncover the philosophy of liberalism and lay bare its implications. What is Man? How does he think and feel? What is the place of Reason in human affairs? How should men live? What is politics, and what is it for? Kenneth Minogue offers a brilliant and provocative exploration of liberalism in the Western world today: its roots and its influences, its present state, and its prospects in the new century. While few - especially in America - embrace the description of liberal, Minogue argues, most Americans and most Europeans behave as liberals. At least they are the heirs of what Minogue describes as "the triumph of an enlarged, flexible, and pragmatic version of liberalism." The past two centuries have been characterized, in the West at least, by "the fury of old ideological battles... such as: A planned economy, or free enterprise? Individual thrift, or social services? Free trade, or protection?" These battles have largely been completed -- and, many would say, have been won by the champions of, respectively, free enterprise, individual thrift, and free trade.

The Politics of Reconstruction, 1863-1867

The Reconstruction Act of 1867 was one of the most controversial and far-reaching legislative measures ever enacted by an American Congress.

David Donald uses the latest techiques of behavioral science, especially roll-call analysis, to suggest that a congressman's strength in his diestrict usually determined whether he voted with the radicals, moderates, or conservatives in the Republican Party.

Celtic Astrology from the Druids to the Middle Ages

Our understanding of Celtic astrology is based mainly on the speculations of modern authors—mostly drawn from classical Greek and Roman writings—and suffers from many misconceptions. European astrology uses the Greek model, containing many Babylonian and Egyptian elements. But Celtic astrology (and other Indo-European astrologies) developed earlier, with relationships to Middle Eastern systems, as well as their own independent forms. This well documented study takes a fresh look at the development of Celtic astrology and the Druids’ systems of cosmology, astronomy and astrology. The author analyzes commentaries found in manuscript sources from antiquity to the Middle Ages, comparing them with cosmological and astronomical lore found in Celtic cultures. Ancient constellations, calendars, deities and rituals reveal a rich worldview.

Beyond Sustainability : A Thriving Environment

This book approaches environmentalism via two academic disciplines, sociology and philosophy. Both have concerns about the environment's ability not only to sustain itself but to thrive. The authors argue that rather than simple sustainability, we must promote thrivability for the sake of protecting the environment and all living things. In this greatly expanded second edition, the authors have updated data and examples, introduced new topics and concepts, and emphasized the need to lessen our dependence on fossil fuels. Numerous topics are explored, from the differences between sustainability and thrivability, and the overuse of plastic, to mass extinction, the role of natural disasters and more. The COVID-19 pandemic offers an added perspective on the relationship between disease and the environment.


The Populist Delusion

The 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump unleashed a wave of populism not seen in America since the Nixon era, which carried him into the presidency. Seen widely as a vindication of the people over elites, his failure to bring about any meaningful change was then seen as an aberration, a departure from a natural state where the people are sovereign and their representatives govern by their consent. This is the populist delusion.This book explodes that delusion. Beginning with the Italian elite school, Parvini shows the top-down and elite driven nature of politics by explicating one thinker per chapter: Mosca, Pareto, Michels, Schmitt, Jouvenel, Burnham, Francis, and Gottfried. The sobering picture that emerges is that the interests of the people have only ever been advanced by a tightly organized minority. Just as fire drives out fire, so an elite is only ever driven out by another elite.The Populist Delusion is the remedy for a self-defeating folk politics...

Authenticity and How We Fake It : Belief and Subjectivity in Reality TV, Facebook and YouTube

Consumers today are invested in reality-based media, such as reality television and social media, which in theory draw content from somewhere off-screen in our lived experience. This is seen as more "authentic" than the predominantly fictional media of the latter half of the 20th century. Yet much of reality TV and social media is known by both consumers and creators of content to be scripted or contrived. Addressing this problem deepens consumer engagement, as authenticity becomes a preoccupation driving the extension of a new media ethic of truth and savvy. This dynamic is key to understanding consumers' changing attitudes about the media they value. Reality TV, Facebook and YouTube have created a paradigm shift in the media landscape. Analyzing these three established platforms--all of which have a stake in the conversation about authenticity--this book sheds light on the complicated behaviors and choices of media consumers.
