The Nazi Economic Recovery 1932–1938
ISBN: 9780521552868 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This is a fully revised and updated edition of R.J. Overy's highly regarded survey of the Nazi economic recovery (first published by Macmillan in 1982). The performance of the German economy under the Nazi regime has been the subject of intense academic debate. Overy discusses the main areas of this debate, arguing that the war preparation that took place at this time was ultimately incompatible with long-term economic recovery, and that the German economic miracle did not occur until after 1945.

Eddington's Search for a Fundamental Theory: A Key to the Universe
ISBN: 9780521371650 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Many people today are unaware that back in the 1930s, Sir Arthur Eddington, the celebrated astrophysicist, made great strides toward his own "theory of everything." In 1936 and 1946 Eddington's last two books were published. These works are strangely tentative and obscure, unlike his earlier lucid and authoritative works. This volume examines how Eddington came to write these uncharacteristic books--in terms of the physics and history of the day--and what value they have to modern physics. The result is an illuminating description of the development of theoretical physics in the first half of...

The Witch of Edmonton
ISBN: 9781904271529 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. On 19 April 1621, a woman named Elizabeth Sawyer was hanged at Tyburn. Her story was on the bookstalls within days and within weeks was adapted for the stage as The Witch of Edmonton. The devil stalks Edmonton in the shape of a large black dog and, just as Elizabeth Sawyer makes her demonic pact, the newlywed Frank Thorney enters into his own dark bargain in the shape of a second, bigamous marriage. Torn between sympathy for Sawyer and Thorney and a clear-eyed assessment of their crimes, the play was the finest and most nuanced treatment of witchcraft that the stage would see for...
