The Impossible Man
ISBN: 9781508723059 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Poe, Hemingway, Twain, Salinger, O. Henry, and Updike move over, there's clearly a new rival on the block. In his one hundred and sixty five short stories published in eight volumes, David Cope has created a new paradigm of the form. The genres he's chosen cover the map-from noir, mystery, and thriller, to science fiction, humor, death, and amnesia-and these stories range in size from a few pages to short novellas. I find these stories the perfect antidote to the often-endless drivel of today's thousand-page novels and a once-again peek into the world where every word counts. Five stars. Jon...

Pleiades
ISBN: 9781548964580 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. After a year or so as Acting Dean and Provost at UCSC, I took my first sabbatical and decided to spend some time traveling as well as considering what I'd do for contrast. What then occurred was probably more a mid-life crisis than a break from academia. One of my first research studies was to combine art and science in the design of a radio telescope that supposedly worked, gave indications of changes through sound output (SETI) and looked, I thought, quite elegant. I then gathered a robust and professional group of scientists, artists, and musicians to help make my dream a reality.
