Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Hollywood in 1937 is a town unlike any other, filled with fame, fortune, and excitement.

When gay private investigator Oakley Webster uncovers a mysterious connection between some of Hollywood's celebrity Jewish community and Nazi Germany, he'll rely on the help of some of Tinseltown's biggest names to uncover the truth.

Neobyvatelná Země
ISBN: 9788027502547 / Czeski / Miękka / 2020 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Možná nejzrádnější stránka klimatické krize je její nenápadnost a zdánlivá pomalost. Roční období se střídají, moře zůstává na svém místě, někdy prší méně, někdy více. To jen v médiích se míhá kaleidoskop apokalypsy: tající permafrost, hořící lesy, ubývající ledovce, města bez vody a tak dále. Zahřívání planety se z hlediska každodenního života zdá být nahodilým označením nespojitých katastrof. Mezinárodní bestseller Neobyvatelná Země tento dojem nemilosrdně bourá. Novinář David WallaceWells přečetl stovky analýz a...

Chaucer and the Early Writings of Boccaccio
ISBN: 9780859911863 / Angielski / Twarda / 1985 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. David Wallace's examination of the aims and literary affiliations of Boccaccio's early writings provides an indispensable preface to and context for an informed appraisal of Chaucer's usage of Boccaccio. Previous studies of the relationship between the work of the two poets have tended to consider Chaucer's borrowings without making a thorough study of the traditions which shaped the Italian writer's work. Wallace argues that Boccaccio was not primarily concerned with winning recognition at the Angevin court, but was chiefly concerned with fashioning an identity for himself as an illustrious...

Fate, Time, and Language: An Essay on Free Will
ISBN: 9780231151566 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In 1962, the philosopher Richard Taylor used six commonly accepted presuppositions to imply that human beings have no control over the future. David Foster Wallace not only took issue with Taylor's method, which, according to him, scrambled the relations of logic, language, and the physical world, but also noted a semantic trick at the heart of Taylor's argument. Fate, Time, and Language presents Wallace's brilliant critique of Taylor's work. Written long before the publication of his fiction and essays, Wallace's thesis reveals his great skepticism of abstract thinking made to...

It takes a strong woman to secure bookish remembrance in future times; to see her life becoming a life. David Wallace explores the lives of four Catholic women - Dorothea of Montau (1347-1394) and Margery Kempe of Lynn (c. 1373-c. 1440); Mary Ward of Yorkshire (1585-1645) and Elizabeth Cary of Drury Lane (c. 1585-1639) and and the fate of their writings.

The Emergent Multiverse: Quantum Theory According to the Everett Interpretation
ISBN: 9780198707547 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 548 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Emergent Multiverse presents a striking new account of the "many worlds" approach to quantum theory. The point of science, it is generally accepted, is to tell us how the world works and what it is like. But quantum theory seems to fail to do this: taken literally as a theory of the world, it seems to make crazy claims: particles are in two places at once; cats are alive and dead at the same time. So physicists and philosophers have often been led either to give up on the idea that quantum theory describes reality, or to modify or augment the theory.
