Temperaments: Memoirs of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Other Artists
ISBN: 9781504008129 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In these five profiles, four of which originally appeared in the New Yorker, the author evokes the life and work of seven gifted artists. Among those presented, often through lively conversations, are Jean Helion, Mark Rothko, R.B. Kitaj, and Dennis Creffield. Chief among those portrayed however is Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004), the great French photographer and photojournalist who, famed for dodging contact with the press, is here sketched in rare and fond detail. Of all these artists, only two still live: what emerges from this book is a picture, often bizarre, often hilarious,...

Kaputt
ISBN: 9781590171479 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Curzio Malaparte was a disaffected supporter of Mussolini with a taste for danger and high living. Sent by an Italian paper during World War II to cover the fighting on the Eastern Front, Malaparte secretly wrote this terrifying report from the abyss, which became an international bestseller when it was published after the war. Telling of the siege of Leningrad, of glittering dinner parties with Nazi leaders, and of trains disgorging bodies in war-devastated Romania, Malaparte paints a picture of humanity at its most depraved.

I Am a Strange Loop
ISBN: 9780465030798 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Can thought arise out of matter? Can self, soul, consciousness, "I" arise out of mere matter? If it cannot, then how can you or I be here?
I Am a Strange Loop argues that the key to understanding selves and consciousness is the "strange loop"--a special kind of abstract feedback loop inhabiting our brains. The most central and complex symbol in your brain is the one called "I." The "I" is the nexus in our brain, one of many symbols seeming to have free will and to have gained the paradoxical ability to push particles around, rather than the reverse. How can a mysterious abstraction... Can thought arise out of matter? Can self, soul, consciousness, "I" arise out of mere matter? If it cannot, then how can you or I be here?

The Love Affair as a Work of Art
ISBN: 9781504008136 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This series of entwined biographical sketches recounts how, in the Romantic Era, love affairs, often illicit, were transformed into novels, memoirs, and published correspondences. We make the intimate acquaintance of great writers like Mme de Stael, Chateaubriand, George Sand, and Anatole France, who, however, fall gradually under the suspicion of pursuing their amorous entanglements for "good material." The tale ends with a moving account, based on unpublished sources, of the strange, intense friendship of Marcel Proust and Jeanne Pouquet, the girl who became the model for Gilberte in...

Falling Palace: A Romance of Naples
ISBN: 9780375714283 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A portrait of the sun-drenched volcanic city from an American who has lost his heart to the place and to a beguiling Neapolitan woman.
In Falling Palace Dan Hofstadter brilliantly reveals Naples, from the dilapidated architectural beauty to the irrepressible theater of everyday life. We witness the centuries-old festivals that regularly crowd the city s jumbled streets, and eavesdrop on conversations that continue deep into the night. We browse the countless curio shops where treasures mingle with kitsch, and meet the locals he befriends. In and out of these encounters slips...

Earth Moves: Galileo and the Roman Inquisition
ISBN: 9780393338201 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Galileo was then sixty-nine years old and the most venerated scientist in Italy. Although subscribing to an anti-literalist view of the Bible, as per Saint Augustine, Galileo considered himself a believing Catholic Playing to his own strengths--a deep knowledge of Italy, a longstanding interest in Renaissance and Baroque lore--Dan Hofstadter explains this apparent paradox and limns this historic moment in the widest cultural context, portraying Galileo as both humanist and scientist, deeply versed in philosophy and poetry, on easy terms with musicians, writers, and painters.

The Idea of a Party System: The Rise of Legitimate Opposition in the United States, 1780-1840volume 2
ISBN: 9780520017542 / Angielski / Miękka / 1970 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This work traces the historical processes in thought by which American political leaders slowly edged away from their complete philosophical rejection of a party and hesitantly began to embrace a party system. In the author's words, "The emergence of legitimate party opposition and of a theory of politics that accepted it was something new in the history of the world; it required a bold new act of understanding on the part of its contemporaries and it still requires study on our part." Professor Hofstadter's analysis of the idea of party and the development of legitimate opposition offers...

Godel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid
ISBN: 9780465026562 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 824 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Douglas Hofstadter's book is concerned directly with the nature of "maps" or links between formal systems. However, according to Hofstadter, the formal system that underlies all mental activity transcends the system that supports it. If life can grow out of the formal chemical substrate of the cell, if consciousness can emerge out of a formal system of firing neurons, then so too will computers attain human intelligence. Godel, Escher, Bach is a wonderful exploration of fascinating ideas at the heart of cognitive science: meaning, reduction, recursion, and much more.

Leute die vom Müll leben
ISBN: 9783838136103 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 2013 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Die Mullproblematik ist ein topaktuelles Thema unserer Zeit. Das tagliche Entsorgen des Abfalls pragt nicht nur unser Verhalten, sondern auch unser Bewusstsein und soll in diesem Buch als Tatigkeit des Alltags sowie als Phanomen, von welchem andere Leute leben, gesehen werden. Die Menge an weggeworfenen Lebensmittel verblufft und schockiert in vielerlei Hinsicht. Vor allem bekennende Bewegungen, wie jene der Freeganer, tolerieren diese Situation nicht. Aus Protest und moralischen Aspekten leben sie von dem, was sie im Abfall finden und aus Mulltonnen entwenden. Desweiteren leben viele...
