So begins this droll comedy of lust, deception, adultery, and an Ambassador's obsessive desire for superb Japanese cuisine. It may leave you wondering just how high, really, is the cost for a pot of hot green tea and fresh conch sushi. Heartburn, or . . . ? The answer will astonish you.

Mandragora: A Ribald and Irreverent Tale from the Italian Renaissance

Add a conniving servant and his amoral master; a murderous priest and his equally homicidal sidekick; a beautiful but barren wife wed to an ancient attorney; and a potion brewed from Mandragora, a plant alleged to help women conceive, and you have a prescription for pandemonium, especially when Mandragora (known in less reputable circles as "God's Little Joke"), possesses a Fatal Flaw. Filled with bawdy and irreverent wit, outrageous situations, characters it would be grossly unwise to invite for dinner, and lots of good old-fashioned belly laughs, this literate and sophisticated satire is a...

Turandot's Ukulele
ISBN: 9781500547219 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Turandot's Ukulele is an endearing story about a boy's love for his aunt, an elderly spinster who introduces him to grand opera at the Metropolitan. It also validates great music's power to remove the stings of tragedy, transform the simplest lives, and inspire startling ideas. Fascinated by the Hawaiian ukulele, as well as loving Puccini's Turandot, our young operagoer sees no reason why "the plinky-plunky splendour of the leaping flea" can't be part of the Met's huge orchestra, right in there with the loudest trumpets and the big Chinese gong. Told as a fond remembrance filled with droll...

Perhaps it might, but not without treacherous game playing from Cleopatrus Excaptivus, a cat unabashedly beloved by its owner, but to all others a creature from hell. Truthfully based on real people, real events, and, yes, a very real cat, this story will touch your heart with laughter and is a pleasure to read aloud. First published in Camera Obscura (Vernal 2012 issue), a journal of quality fiction and photography, Cleopatrus Excaptivus now proudly stands on its own four paws in this Large Print Edition.

Monoclonal Antibodies to Receptors: Probes for Receptor Structure and Funtcion
ISBN: 9789401089555 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Receptor specific antibodies are excellent probes for a wide range of biological investigations on receptor structure and function. The hybridoma technology (Kohler and Milstein, 1975) has inevitably had a major impact on this field with most of the better known receptors now identified with monoclonal antibodies. This volume of the Receptors and Recognition series provides reviews of recent developments in this field and emphasizes in particular the new opportunities afforded by the judicious application of monoclonal reagents. It is assumed that most readers will be familiar with the now...

Krebs -- Der Blinde Passagier Der Evolution
ISBN: 9783662062074 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 2014 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Die Wissenschaft bietet uns einen von vielen moglichen Blickwinkeln, die Welt, in der wir leben, zu betrachten. Die menschliche Neugierde verhilft dem Wissen schaftler zu einem gewissen Grundoptimismus, der allerdings in Naivitat umschlagen kann, wenn er dabei versucht, aus den komplexen Phanomen der Welt ein zu einfaches Bild zu zeichnen. Die Dimensionen von Raum und Zeit liegen jenseits unserer unmittelbaren Wahrnehmungsmoglichkeiten und verleiten leicht zu phantastischen Vorstellungen. Es sollte daher vielmehr darum gehen, sich um ein Verstandnis der Komplexitat zu bemuhen. Diese...

Dramatis Personae: Poems of Comedy and Tragedy
ISBN: 9781500223328 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 74 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Should you be sufficiently adventurous as to purchase this volume of poetry, I thank you. I do not now nor ever have written poetry with the intent of publication, but only for my personal enjoyment, be it cathartic to cleanse tragedy of its bile or whimsical to celebrate a comic vein. Don Marquis, the poet whose wonderful creations, Archy the Cockroach and Mehitabel the Alley Cat, have given so much pleasure to so many people, wrote, "Publishing a volume of poetry is like dropping a rose petal down the Grand Canyon and waiting for the echo." He was right, of course, and still is right, at...

Going Barefoot Into Paradise
ISBN: 9781500548469 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Memphis, Tennessee, circa 1950, the Klu Klux Klan held devious power over politicians and the police. In this vivid remembrance by an elderly lady, she reveals how, as a child, she and her mother were in mortal danger through the folly of a much-loved aunt. Through her eyes, we see the facile face of bigotry and its devastating effect on the living and the dead. Woven throughout the horror of lynchings and other murders, a thread of uncommon humanity, and even humour, anchors this surprising tale. And, should you think that this story rings true, you would be correct, because it is true,...

This ambitious bird desires nothing less than to, "FLY BEYOND THAT MIDNIGHT TWELVE, TO FLY BEYOND INFINITY " Appealing to children as well as adults, this gentle whimsy astonishes with its ideas while inciting our laughter. To tell more would spoil the story, which positively begs reading aloud.
