Corresponding with Carlos: A Biography of Carlos Kleiber
ISBN: 9781442231177 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Carlos Kleiber (1930-2004) was the greatest conductor of his generation. His reputation is legendary, and yet astonishingly, in his five decades on the podium, he conducted only 89 concerts, some 600 opera performances, and produced 12 recordings.

Comfortably Numb: How Psychiatry Is Medicating a Nation
ISBN: 9780307274953 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) American doctors dispense approximately 230 million antidepressant prescriptions every year, more than any other class of medication.

Day after day, night after night, desperate men come to sit in the black chair next to Charles Barber's desk in a basement office at Bellevue and tell of their travails, of prison and disease, of violence and the voices that plague them.

By relating these troubled lives to his own, Barber illuminates some of the most disturbing and enduring...

ISBN: 9789004173934 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Given the enduring importance of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, it is remarkable to find that there is no extensive surviving commentary on this text from the period between the second century and the twelfth century.

This endeavor was to have a significant impact on the reception of the Nicomachean Ethics in Latin and Catholic Europe. For, in the mid-thirteenth century, Robert...
