Time Was McDonald IanPaperback

Ian McDonald weaves a love story across an endless expanse with his science fiction novella Time WasA love story stitched across time and war, shaped by the power of books, and ultimately destroyed by it.In the heart of World War II, Tom and Ben became lovers.

The Equations of Life

Why do gazelles have legs and not wheels? Why is all life based on carbon rather than silicon? Why do humans have eyes on the front of their heads? And beyond earth, would life - if it should exist - look like our own?The puzzles of life astound and confuse us like no other mystery. An astrophysicist once conceded that even the smallest insect is far more complex than either an atom or a star. But in this groundbreaking new account of the process of evolution, Professor Charles Cockell reveals how nature is far more understandable and predictable than we would think.Refining Darwin's theory of natural selection, Cockell puts forward a remarkable and elegant account of why evolution has taken the paths it has. The key is understanding how fundamental physical laws constrain nature's direction and form at every turn. From the animal kingdom to the atomic realm, he shows how physics is the true touchstone for understanding life in all its extraordinary forms. Provocative and captivating, this book will fundamentally change how you view the world.

Weegee - Murder is My Business Wallis BrianPevná vazba

For a decade between 1935 and 1946, Weegee made a name for himself snapping crime scenes, victims and perpetrators. Armed with a Speed Graphic camera and a police-band radio, Weegee often beat the cops to the story, determined to sell his pictures to the sensation-hungry tabloids. His stark black-and-white photos were often lurid and unsettling. Yet, as this beautifully produced volume shows, they were also brimming with humanity. Designed as a series of "dossiers," this book follows Weegee's transformation from a freelancer to a photo-detective. It explores his relationship with the tabloid press and gangster culture and reveals his intimate knowledge of New York's darkest corners. It provides readers with a rich historical experience - a New York City "noir" shot through the lens of one of its most iconoclastic figures.

This complete record includes statistical

Lost President - A. D. Smith and the Hidden History of Radical Democracy in Civil War America Dunley RuthPevná vazba

Though few people have heard of A.D. Smith (1811-65), this nineteenth-century knight-errant left his mark on some of the key events of his times in several states, personifying the nineteenth-century impulse to move across the American landscape. Smith's Quixotic trail began in upstate New York, wound westward to the Ohio and Wisconsin frontier, southward to the federally occupied Sea Islands of South Carolina, and finally ended aboard a northbound steamer.In Ohio, Smith became involved with a paramilitary group, the Hunters' Lodge, which elected him the "President of the Republic of Canada." In Wisconsin he achieved notoriety as the judge who dared to declare the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 unconstitutional, lighting one of many fuses that sparked the Civil War. In South Carolina he fought passionately for the property rights of freedmen. Smith believed in civic movements based

American Indian Stories - Zitkála-Šá

A groundbreaking Dakota author and activist chronicles her refusal to assimilate into nineteenth-century white society and her mission to preserve her culture—with an introduction by Layli Long Soldier, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award and the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award for WhereasBright and carefree, Zitkála-Šá grows up on the Yankton Sioux reservation in South Dakota with her mother until Quaker missionaries arrive, offering the reservation’s children a free education. The catch: They must leave their parents behind and travel to Indiana. Curious about the world beyond the reservation, Zitkála-Šá begs her mother to let her go—and her mother, aware of the advantages that an education offers, reluctantly agrees.But the missionary school is not the adventure that Zitkála-Šá expected: The school is a strict one, her long hair is cut short, and only English is spoken. She encounters racism and ridicule. Slowly, Zitkála-Šá adapts to her environment—excelling at her studies, winning prizes for essay-writing and oration. But the price of success is estrangement from her cultural roots—and is it one she is willing to pay?Combining Zitkála-Šá’s childhood memories, her short stories, and her poetry, American Indian Stories is the origin story of an activist in the making, a remarkable woman whose extraordinary career deserves wider recognition.The Modern Library Torchbearers series features women who wrote on their own terms, with boldness, creativity, and a spirit of resistance.

Črtu zasväcovania možno vybadať v celom teologickom diele Emila Krapku SJ ako základnú metódu života vo viere, ktorá je povolaná, aby sa sprostredkovala a odovzdala iným na spôsob osobného svedectva. V tretej časti sme sústredili jeho dlhšie i kratšie štúdie a články, ktoré vznikli pri rozličných príležitostiach, ako sa to pri každom texte uvádza. Poukazuje to na šírku záberu Emila Krapku SJ, ktorý sa nebál pustiť aj do tém, s ktorými pôvodne nemal úmysel osobitne sa zaoberať, no prijal ich ako výzvu pre svoju službu teológa miestnej cirkvi. Siedmy zväzok Súborného diela je do určitej miery pestrý, no zároveň prináša dotvorenie celkového pohľadu na autorove spisy a prináša inšpiráciu pre ďalšie štúdium a rozvoj jeho myšlienok.Autor: Emil KrapkaVydavateľstvo: Dobrá KnihaPočet strán:  408ISBN:  9788081911705Typ väzby:  viazaná / tvrdá obálka s prebalomRozmer:  155 x 215 mmRok vydania:  2019Jazyk:  slovenský

Star Trek - Deep Space Nine. Kraft und Bewegung

2367 hat Captain Benjamin Maxwell von der Phoenix die Zerstörung eines cardassianischen Kriegsschiffs und eines Versorgungsschiffs befohlen und dabei über sechshundert Cardassianer getötet. Maxwell war davon überzeugt, dass sich die Cardassianer für eine neue Offensive gegen die Föderation bewaffnen, und obwohl er höchstwahrscheinlich recht hatte, blieb der Föderation keine andere Wahl, als ihn vor ein Militärgericht zu stellen und zu inhaftieren. Seitdem sind fast zwanzig Jahre vergangen und Maxwell ist wieder ein freier Mann, der als Wartungsingenieur auf der privaten Wissenschaftsstation Robert Hooke arbeitet, einem Schmelztiegel für Verrückte, unkonventionelle Forscher und möglicherweise etwas weitaus Dunklerem und Tödlicherem. Maxwells früherer Schiffskamerad, Chief Miles O'Brien und sein Kollege, Lieutenant Commander Nog, sind zu Besuch gekommen. Leider scheint es ein ungeschriebenes Gesetz zu sein: Sobald O'Brien und Nog Deep Space 9 zusammen verlassen, setzen sich unvorhersehbare Ereignisse in Bewegung ...
