Up from Generality: How Inorganic Chemistry Finally Became a Respectable Field
ISBN: 9783642401190 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 77 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this brief, renowned inorganic chemist Jay Labinger tracks the development of his field from a forgotten specialism to the establishment of an independent, intellectually viable discipline. Inorganic chemistry, with a negation in its very name, was long regarded as that which was left behind when organic and physical chemistry emerged as specialist fields in the 19th century. Only by the middle of the 20th century had it begun to gain its current stature of equality to that of the other main branches of chemistry. The author discusses the evidence for this transition, both quantitative and...

The One Culture?: A Conversation about Science
ISBN: 9780226467238 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. So far the "Science Wars" have generated far more heat than light. Combatants from one or the other of what C. P. Snow famously called "the two cultures" (science versus the arts and humanities) have launched bitter attacks but have seldom engaged in constructive dialogue about the central issues. In The One Culture?, Jay A. Labinger and Harry Collins have gathered together some of the world's foremost scientists and sociologists of science to exchange opinions and ideas rather than insults. The contributors find surprising areas of broad agreement in a genuine conversation about...

A story of contemporary Chile by one of its most prominent novelists, An Empty House depicts the dissolution of an upper-middle-class family against a chilling background of exile, return, and discovery.

Instead, the couple's efforts expose the horrifying truth about the building-and...

The Rainforest
ISBN: 9780803293298 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For middle-aged Cecilia, the rainforest represents both solace and tenuously controlled danger, as she discovers when she follows the same path each day from her hotel at a Brazilian spa into the surrounding jungle. Although her daily forays are designed to help leave her painful past behind, Cecilia s thoughts return to her deceased husband, her drug-addicted son, and her own place in the world. These thoughts are her only company until the present intrudes once more in the unlikely form of a fellow patient at the spa, a North American man who might represent a second chance. In...

And All of Us Were Actors: A Century of Light and Shadow
ISBN: 9781930879720 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Cinematic, tragicomic, iconoclastic, And All of Us Were Actors tells the story of a near-fantastic journey through the most pivotal moments of a continent's history. A man of the theater, activist, and eternal romantic, our hero, the protagonist, spins a new Odyssey before our eyes. Traveling from Buenos Aires to Bogota along Andean byways, he recalls Thespis, who, exiled from Athens, took to the road in a carriage and gave rise to the notion of the itinerant theater. As he travels, our hero reveals hidden paths; some lead-ing out of the mountains to immense open spaces, others to prison...

Call Me Magdalena

Not at all what the students of Mind Control class envisioned when they gathered on a ranch outside Buenos Aires for a relaxing weekend. But here nothing is quite what it seems, least of all Magdalena herself, who while recounting the weekend's events, changes her name as often as she changes her mind.Within the taut framework of a murder mystery, Alicia Steimberg weaves a tale far more concerned with who-is-it than with whodunit. In what is probably the celebrated author's most interesting and complex...

The Weight of Temptation
ISBN: 9780803239777 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Dystopian fantasy, political parable, morality tale however one reads it, this novel is first and foremost pure Ana Maria Shua, a work of fiction like no other and a dark pleasure to read. Shua, an Argentinian writer widely celebrated throughout Latin America, frames her complex drama in deceptively simple, straightforward prose. The story takes place at a fat farm called The Reeds, a nightmare world that might not exist but certainly could. The last resort of the overweight wealthy (or sponsored), The Reeds subjects its campers to extreme measures particularly the regimented system of...
