My Past and Thoughts: Memoirs Volume 1 Faber & Faber

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Alexander Herzen's own brilliance and the extraordinary circumstances of his life combine to place his memoirs among the great testimonies of the modern era. Born in 1812, the illegitimate son of a wealthy Russian landowner, he became one of the most important revolutionary and intellectual figures of his time - as theorist, polemicist and political actor; and, fifty years after his death Lenin pronounced him 'the father of Russian socialism'. "My Past and Thoughts" uniquely assimilates the personal to the historical, and is both a classic of autobiography an unparalleled record of his century's remarkable life.His account of a privileged childhood among the Russian aristocracy is illuminated with the insight of a great novelist; his friends and enemies - Marx, Wagner, Mill, Bakunin, Garibaldi, Kropotkin - are brought brilliantly to life; and, as a sceptical and free-thinking observer, he unerringly traces the line of revolutionary development, from the earliest stirrings of Russian radicalism through the tumultuous ideological debates of the International. 'His power of observation is extraordinary. He tells a story with the economy of a great reporter.His gift is for knowing not only what people are, but how they are historically situated. Somewhere in the pages of this hard, honest observer of what movements do to men, we shall find ourselves' - V.S. Pritchett.

***AMAZON BEST BOOK OF DECEMBER******A TIME MUST-READ BOOK OF THE YEAR***'A miraculous, transcendental book' ED YONG'Imbler is a terrific talent' SCIENCE MAGAZINEA young queer science writer on some of the ocean's strangest creatures and what they can teach us about human empathy and survival.As a mixed Chinese and white non-binary writer working in a largely white, male field, science journalist Sabrina Imbler has always been drawn to the mystery of life in the sea, and particularly to creatures living in hostile or remote environments.Each essay in their debut collection profiles one such creature: the mother octopus who starves herself while watching over her eggs, the Chinese sturgeon whose migration route has been decimated by pollution and dams, the bizarre Bobbitt worm (named after Lorena) and other uncanny creatures lurking in the deep ocean, far below where the light reaches. Imbler's debut weaves the wonders of marine biology with stories of their own family and coming of age, implicitly connecting endangered sea life to marginalised human communities and asking how they and we adapt, survive and care for each other.This far-reaching, unique collection shatters our preconceptions about the sea and what it means to survive.'Astounding' PHILIP HOARE'A revelation' ISABELLA TREE

The Art of the Endgame: My Journeys in the Magical World of Endgame Studies

Szachy > Książki New In Chess

All through his career Jan Timman has been captivated by the mystery and splendour of endgame studies. Even during his most successful and busy years as a world class player, Timman continued to compose studies and admire those of others.  For him there has never been any doubt that the journeys in this magical world helped him to grow as a player. In this fascinating book, Timman has collected a wide range of the finest endgame studies by other composers and explains in his lucid style how they inspired him to create dozens of brand-new studies himself.  As Timman writes in the preface: #8216;Never before have I been so productive as an endgame study composer as in the seven months that I wrote this book. It was a sensational experience.#8217; The Art of the Endgame  is a treasure-trove for the lovers of beauty in chess. But it is also of great value for competitive players. Solving endgame studies is a vital part of improving one#8217;s endgame technique: it develops general understanding, calculation skills and resourcefulness. Jan Timman  is a former world championship candidate who rose to the number two spot of the FIDE world rankings. He is the author of several highly acclaimed bestsellers, such as 'Curacao 1962', 'On the Attack!', and 'Power Chess with Pieces'. GM Karsten Müller, author of 'Fundamental Chess Endings': "Really fascinating." Uwe Bekemann, German Correspondence Chess Federation: "A work that succeeds, which entertains and at at the same time makes you better at playing the endgame." Marco Campioli, Torre Cavallo: "Not only a rich manual for the 'studista', but also quite useful for players, with endings to analyze and remember." Steve Giddins, author of 'The Greates Ever Chess Endgames': "Not to be missed at any price (..) I was absolutely knocked out by the quality of the content." Harry Schaack, KARL Magazine: "Rarely have studies been presented so beautifully." Lubosh Kavalek, The Huffington Post: "Brilliant." Michael Adams, The Saturday Telegraph: "A true connoisseur (..) guides the reader through this intruiging facet of the game and shows his own stunning studies."  Harold van der Heijden, Schaaksite.nl: "Highly recommended, not only for lovers of endgame studies, but also for chess players who are interested in the beauty of chess. Timman has the talent to take the reader by the hand into an Alice in Wonderland adventure." Martin Rieger, Europa Rochade Magazine: "A work you will always return to in order to browse. And you will always discover something new." Tim Krabbé, author of 'Chess Curiosities': "[Timman] is one of the best makers in the world of perfect, breathtakingly beautiful small machines." Simen Agdestein, VG Newspaper (Norway): "Jan Timman was the hope of the West in my youth and I've always fancied his style. And I share his fascination for endgame studies as well, so this book struck me as interesting right away." Praise for Jan Timman: Harald Keilhack in Schach Magazine on 'Power Chess with Pieces': #8220;Where Garry Kasparov likes to hide behind thick trees with variations, Timman always makes sure that the reader fully understands why the game develops the way it does.#8221;   IM John Watson in TWIC on 'Curaçao 1962': #8220;Will be enjoyed by lovers of the game fo r years to come, and never grow old.#8221; British Chess Federation Book-of-the-Year Award Judges: #8220;One of the chess world#8217;s most perceptive writers.#8221;

Brain On Fire: My Month of Madness Penguin Books

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Brain on Fire is the stunning debut from journalist and author Susannah Cahalan, recounting the real-life horror story of how a sudden and mysterious illness put her on descent into a madness for which there seemed to be no cure 'My first serious blackout marked the line between sanity and insanity. Though I would have moments of lucidity over the coming days and weeks, I would never again be the same person...' Susannah Cahalan was a happy, clever, healthy twenty-four-year old. Then one day she woke up in hospital, with no memory of what had happened or how she had got there. Within weeks, she would be transformed into someone unrecognizable, descending into a state of acute psychosis, undergoing rages and convulsions, hallucinating that her father had murdered his wife; that she could control time with her mind. Everything she had taken for granted about her life, and who she was, was wiped out. This is Susannah's story of her terrifying descent into madness and the desperate hunt for a diagnosis, as, after dozens of tests and scans, baffled doctors concluded she should be confined in a psychiatric ward.It is also the story of how one brilliant man, Syria-born Dr Najar, finally proved - using a simple pen and paper - that Susannah's psychotic behaviour was caused by a rare autoimmune disease attacking her brain. His diagnosis of this little-known condition, thought to have been the real cause of devil-possessions through history, saved her life, and possibly the lives of many others. Cahalan takes readers inside this newly-discovered disease through the progress of her own harrowing journey, piecing it together using memories, journals, hospital videos and records. Written with passionate honesty and intelligence, Brain on Fire is a searingly personal yet universal book, which asks what happens when your identity is suddenly destroyed, and how you get it back. "With eagle-eye precision and brutal honesty, Susannah Cahalan turns her journalistic gaze on herself as she bravely looks back on one of the most harrowing and unimaginable experiences one could ever face: the loss of mind, body and self...a mesmerizing story". (Mira Bartok, New York Times bestselling author of The Memory Palace).Susannah Cahalan is a reporter on the New York Post, and the recipient of the 2010 Silurian Award of Excellence in Journalism for Feature Writing. Her writing has also appeared in the New York Times, and is frequently picked up by the Daily Mail, Gawker, Gothamist, AOL and Yahoo among other news aggregrator sites.

Is the Atheist My Neighbor? Cascade Books

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Do atheists hate God? Many Christians seem to think so. For the last three centuries Christians have widely assumed that atheism is always a result of a rebellious, sinful rejection of God. According to this view, at some level atheists really do know there is a God, but they sinfully suppress this knowledge because they want to live independently of God. But what if that is not correct? What if some folks are atheists not because they're sinful and foolish but because they've thought hard, they've looked carefully, and they have simply not found God? What if the common Christian assumptions about atheism are little more than an indefensible prejudice? What if the atheist really is our neighbor? ""There are some whose way of following the first of the great commandments has, in the matter of nonbelief, meant violating the second. In this brief and lively but remarkably full and acute discussion, Rauser shows the way out of this problem. Impressively fair, and writing not perfunctorily but with feeling, he has found a way to express genuine neighborliness both to atheists like me and to Christians who struggle to reconcile love and loyalty."" --J. L. Schellenberg, Professor of Philosophy, Mount Saint Vincent University, author of Divine Hiddenness and Human Reason ""In our post-Christian--and increasingly post-theist--western culture, we need voices like Rauser's that repudiate simplistic, belligerent, and belittling Christian rhetoric, and motivate us to think more critically and humbly about being good neighbors--good world citizens--as we walk the path of Christian faith. I will be recommending this book to many who seek better ways to live among others--and for those who are honest enough to struggle with their own 'inner atheist.'"" --Peter Enns, Abram S. Clemens Professor of Biblical Studies, Eastern University, author of The Bible Tells Me So: Why Defending Scripture has Made Us Unable to Read it. ""When I first heard about this book, I said the same thing I do every time Randal comes out with a new book, 'What? He's written another book?' But . . . I have to admit that if I want anyone speaking to Christians on behalf of atheists, or to atheists on behalf of Christians, it's Randal. This book proves once again how capable he is of bridging such cultural divides."" --Kevin Miller, director of Hellbound? Randal Rauser is Professor of Historical Theology at Taylor Seminary in Edmonton, Alberta. He is the author of many books, including The Swedish Atheist, the Scuba Diver, and Other Apologetic Rabbit Trails (2012) and You're Not as Crazy as I Think: Dialogue in a World of Loud Voices and Hardened Opinions (2011). Rauser blogs and podcasts as The Tentative Apologist at randalrauser.com.
