Once Upon a Universe Springer-Verlag New York Inc.

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

"Once upon a time there was no Universe," began the Storyteller. "First Snow White encounters one of the Little People, then one of the Even Smaller People, and finally one of the Truly Infinitesimal People. And no matter how diligently she searches, the only dwarves she can find are collapsed stars! Clearly, she s not at home in her well-known Brothers Grimm fairy tale, but instead in a strange new landscape that features quantum behavior, the wavelike properties of particles, and the Uncertainty Principle. She (and we) must have entered, in short, one of the worlds created by Robert Gilmore, the physicist and fabulist who brought us the classic "Alice in Quantumland."Whether he s recasting such classic tales as "Jack and the Quarkstalk," "Waking Beauty," or "Cinderenda and the Death of Stars," Gilmore shows us that there s more than one way to shed light on the strange profundities of modern physics and cosmology, and what they have to tell us about the nature of time and space and motion. Black holes, dying stars, traveling backward through time to the Big Bang - they re all here in accessible, instructive, and charmingly illustrated retellings.Robert Gilmore has published three previous books with Copernicus, "Alice in Quantumland," "Scrooge s Cryptic Carol," and "The Wizard of Quarks." He is a Visiting Research Fellow, with a special focus on the public understanding of science, at Bristol University in England. He has also worked in particle physics at Brookhaven, Stanford, and CERN in Geneva.

Maroko pod prąd - Artur Puchalski

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - Maroko w sto siedem dni, ponad dziewięć tysięcy kilometrów przebytych od Sahary, po ciągnące się nad Morzem Śródziemnym góry Rif, przed którymi przestrzega polskie MSZ" Wypożyczone rozklekotane samochody bez nawigacji ani nawet narzędzi niezbędnych do wymiany koła, kręte górskie drogi, osypujące się kamienie, wioski odizolowane od reszty kraju. Nieplanowane przystanki, noclegi w przypadkowych miejscach, z których chce się czmychnąć, zanim jeszcze zmruży się oko, ucieczka przed plantatorami konopi indyjskich. Ciągłe gubienie się i odnajdowanie właściwych ścieżek" Zaglądanie przez uchylone drzwi do zwykłych mieszkań, ciemnych warsztatów, obserwowanie tłumów ludzi na ulicach i targowiskach, udział w demonstracjach, uczestniczenie w lokalnych świętach, wizyty u miejscowych znachorów, wizyty u wróżek. Wszystko to, by chłonąć atmosferę prawdziwego Maroka, poszukiwać autentyczności miejsc zagubionych w czasie i przestrzeni, żyjących własnych rytmem ludzi, ich niezwykłych rytuałów i codziennych zachowań tak zadziwiających człowieka Zachodu. Odważ się zostać z bohaterami książki w Maroku wystarczająco długo, by móc zobaczyć to, co nie jest dostępne każdemu turyście trafiającemu do tego magicznego kraju pachnącego kurkumą i imbirem. Maroko pod prąd Artura Puchalskiego składa się ośmiu rozdziałów, pokazujących krok po kroku całą podróż odbytą przez bohaterów. W książce znajduje się 165 zdjęć, idealnie wkomponowanych w treść narracji oraz 12 map stworzonych specjalnie na potrzeby książki.

Trust Me, I'm a (Junior) Doctor Hodder & Stoughton

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

If you're going to be ill, it's best to avoid the first Wednesday in August. This is the day when junior doctors graduate to their first placements and begin to face having to put into practice what they have spent the last six years learning. Starting on the evening before he begins work as a doctor, this book charts Max Pemberton's touching and funny journey through his first year in the NHS. Progressing from youthful idealism to frank bewilderment, Max realises how little his job is about 'saving people' and how much of his time is taken up by signing forms and trying to figure out all the important things no one has explained yet -- for example, the crucial question of how to tell whether someone is dead or not. Along the way, Max and his fellow fledgling doctors grapple with the complicated questions of life, love, mental health and how on earth to make time to do your laundry. All Creatures Great and Small meets Bridget Jones's Diary, this is a humorous and accessible peek into a world which you'd normally need a medical degree to witness.Max Pemberton is a doctor. He writes a weekly column for the Daily Telegraph.

On a Sea of Glass Amberley Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

On the night of 14/15 April 1912, a brand-new, supposedly unsinkable ship, the largest and most luxurious vessel in the world at the time, collided with an iceberg and sank on her maiden voyage. Of the 2,208 people on board, only 712 were saved. The rest either drowned or froze to death in the icy-cold waters of the North Atlantic. How could this 'unsinkable' vessel sink and why did so few of those aboard survive? The authors bring the tragedy to life, telling the story of the ship's design, construction and maiden voyage. The stories of individuals who sailed on her, many previously known only as names on yellowing passenger and crew lists, are brought to light using rarely seen accounts of the sinking. The stories of passengers of all classes and crewmembers alike, are explored. They tell the dramatic stories of lives lost and people saved, of the rescue ship Carpathia, and of the aftermath of the sinking. Never again would a large passenger liner sail without lifeboats for all. Despite the tragedy, the sinking of the Titanic indirectly led to untold numbers of lives being saved due to new regulations that came into force after the tragedy.Profusely illustrated, including many rare and unique views of the ship and those who sailed on her, this is as accurate and engrossing a telling of the life of the White Star Line's Titanic and her sinking as you will read anywhere. Made special by the use of so many rare survivor accounts from the eye witnesses to that night to remember, the narrative places the reader in the middle of the maiden voyage, and brings the tragic sinking to life as never before.

One Hell of a Gamble WW Norton & Co

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

No other book offers this inside look at the strategies of the Soviet leadership. John F. Kennedy did not live to write his memoirs; Fidel Castro will not reveal what he knows; and the records of the Soviet Union have long been sealed from public view: Of the most frightening episode of the Cold War--the Cuban Missile Crisis--we have had an incomplete picture. When did Castro embrace the Soviet Union? What proposals were put before the Kremlin through Kennedy's back-channel diplomacy? How close did we come to nuclear war? These questions have now been answered for the first time. This important and controversial book draws the missing half of the story from secret Soviet archives revealed exclusively by the authors, including the files of Nikita Khrushchev and his leadership circle. Contained in these remarkable documents are the details of over forty secret meetings between Robert Kennedy and his Soviet contact, records of Castro's first solicitation of Soviet favor, and the plans, suspicions, and strategies of Khrushchev. This unique research opportunity has allowed the authors to tell the complete, fascinating, and terrifying story of the most dangerous days of the last half-century.

Geisha: A Life WASHINGTON SQUARE

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

No woman in the three-hundred-year history of the karyukai has ever come forward in public to tell her story -- until now. "Many say I was the best geisha of my generation," writes Mineko Iwasaki. "And yet, it was a life that I found too constricting to continue. And one that I ultimately had to leave." Trained to become a geisha from the age of five, Iwasaki would live among the other "women of art" in Kyoto's Gion Kobu district and practice the ancient customs of Japanese entertainment. She was loved by kings, princes, military heroes, and wealthy statesmen alike. But even though she became one of the most prized geishas in Japan's history, Iwasaki wanted more: her own life. And by the time she retired at age twenty-nine, Iwasaki was finally on her way toward a new beginning. "Geisha, a Life" is her story -- at times heartbreaking, always awe-inspiring, and totally true.
