Inconceivable Harmony Books

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

A memoir of hope for the thousands of women struggling with infertility, from one who beat the odds by simply tuning in to her body and tapping her well of sheer determination. At a time when more and more women are trying to get pregnant at increasingly advanced ages, fertility specialists and homeopathic researchers boast endless treatment options. But when Julia Indichova made the rounds of medical doctors and nontraditional healers, she was still unable to conceive a child. It was only when she forsook their financially and emotionally draining advice, turning inward instead, that she finally met with reproductive success. "Inconceivable recounts this journey from hopeless diagnoses to elated motherhood. Anyone who has faced infertility will relate to Julia's desperate measures: acupuncture, unidentifiable black-and-white pellets, herb soup, foul-smelling fruit, even making love on red sheets. Five reproductive endocrinologists told her that there was no documented case of anyone in her hormonal condition getting pregnant, forcing her to finally embark on her own intuitive regimen. After eight caffeine-free, nutrient-rich, yoga-laden months, complemented by visualization exercises, Julia received amazing news; incredibly, she was pregnant. Nine months later she gave birth to a healthy girl. Unlike the many infertility books that take a clinical "how to" approach, "Inconceivable simply professes the wisdom of giving expert status back to the patient. Julia's self-discovery, and her ability to see her body as an ally once again, yield a beautiful message about the importance of honoring the body's innate powers, and the power of life itself.

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - ONE MAN`S TRUTH IS ANOTHER MAN`S LIE. When big-shot literary agent Peter Katz receives an unfinished manuscript entitled The Book of Mirrors, he is intrigued. The author, Richard Flynn is writing a memoir about his time at Princeton in the late 80s, documenting his relationship with the famous Professor Joseph Wieder.

Polowanie na Snowdena - Luke Harding

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - Wszystko zaczęło się od anonimowego maila: "Jestem wyższym rangą członkiem służby wywiadu...". To, co stało się później, było najbardziej spektakularną aferą szpiegowską, którą wywołał jeden człowiek. Edward Snowden był 29-letnim geniuszem komputerowym pracującym dla amerykańskiej Agencji Bezpieczeństwa Narodowego. Zaszokował świat, demaskując inwigilowanie polityków i zwykłych ludzi przez władze USA. Wykryte przez niego nieprawidłowości wstrząsnęły przywódcami państw (podsłuchiwana była m.in. prywatna komórka kanclerz Niemiec) i wywołały pasjonującą globalną debatę o granicach inwigilacji. "Polowanie na Snowdena" to dziennikarstwo śledcze w najlepszym wydaniu, książka, którą czyta się jak powieść szpiegowską. Wielokrotnie nagradzany dziennikarz "Guardiana" Luke Harding opowiada niezwykłą historię - od dnia, kiedy Snowden porzucił swoją piękną dziewczynę w Honolulu, zabierając ze sobą dysk komputerowy pełen tajnych informacji, poprzez pobyt w Honkongu, skąd na cały świat wyciekły tajne dane, aż po walkę Snowdena o otrzymanie azylu i dość zaskakujący kierunek jego emigracji: do Rosji. Harding wykonał gigantyczną pracę reporterską i stworzył wielowątkową opowieść, dzięki której czytelnik chwilami czuje, jakby siedział ze Snowdenem w jednym pokoju.

In China she was the daughter of professors. In Brooklyn her family is 'illegal.' Qian is just seven when she moves to America, the 'Beautiful Country', where she and her parents find that the roads of New York City are not paved with gold, but crushing fear and scarcity. Unable to speak English at first, Qian and her parents must work wherever they can to survive, all while she battles hunger and loneliness at school. Thus begins an extraordinary story that describes, in vivid colours, days labouring in sweatshops and sushi factories, nights scavenging the streets for furniture, and the terrifying moment when the family emerges from the shadows to seek emergency medical treatment for Qian's mother. Qian Julie Wang's memoir is an unforgettable account of what it means to live under the perpetual threat of deportation and the small joys and sheer determination that kept her family afloat in a new land.

Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Volume I Random House USA Inc

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Anyone can cook in the French manner anywhere,- wrote Mesdames Beck, Bertholle, and Child, - with the right instruction.- And here is the book that, for forty years, has been teaching Americans how.§ Mastering the Art of French Cooking is for both seasoned cooks and beginners who love good food and long to reproduce at home the savory delights of the classic cuisine, from the historic Gallic masterpieces to the seemingly artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas. This beautiful book, with more than one hundred instructive illustrations, is revolutionary in its approach because:§- It leads the cook infallibly from the buying and handling of raw ingredients, through each essential step of a recipe, to the final creation of a delicate confection.§- It breaks down the classic cuisine into a logical sequence of themes and variations rather than presenting an endless and diffuse catalogue of recipes; the focus is on key recipes that form the backbone of French cookery and lend themselves to an infinite number of elaborations-bound to increase anyone-s culinary repertoire.§- It adapts lassical techniques, wherever possible, to modern American conveniences.§- It shows Americans how to buy products, from any supermarket in the U.S.A., that reproduce the exact taste and texture of the French ingredients: equivalent meat cuts, for example; the right beans for a cassoulet; the appropriate fish and shellfish for a bouillabaisse.§- It offers suggestions for just the right accompaniment to each dish, including proper wines.§Since there has never been a book as instructive and as workable as Mastering the Art of French Cooking, the techniques learned here can be applied to recipes in all other French cookbooks, making them infinitely more usable. In compiling the secrets of famous cordons bleus, the authors have produced a magnificent volume that is sure to find the place of honor in every kitchen in America.

How to Raise an Adult Henry Holt & Company

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Across a decade as Stanford University's Dean of Freshmen, Lythcott-Haims noticed a startling rise in parental involvement in students' lives. Every year, more parents were exerting control over students' academic work, extracurriculars, and career choices, often taking matters into their own hands rather than risk their child's failure or disappointment. Meanwhile, Lythcott-Haims encountered increasing numbers of students who, as a result of hyper-attentive parenting, lacked a strong sense of self and were poorly equipped to handle the demands of adult life. Alarmed-for the students, for their parents, and for society at large - she decided to fight back, with this book. In How to Raise an Adult, she draws on research, conversations with educators and employers, and her own insights as a mother and student dean to highlight the ways in which over-parenting harms children and their stressed-out parents.She identifies types of helicopter parents and, while empathizing with parents' universal worries, offers practical alternative strategies that underline the importance of allowing children to make their own mistakes and develop the resilience, resourcefulness, and inner determination necessary for success. Relevant to parents of toddlers as well as of twenty somethings, this book is a rallying cry for those who wish to ensure that the next generation can take charge of their own lives with competence and confidence.
