British-Ottoman Relations, 1661-1807: Commerce and Diplomatic Practice in Eighteenth-Century Istanbul
ISBN: 9781783272020 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The British Embassy in Istanbul was unique among other diplomatic missions in the long eighteenth century in being financed by a private commercial monopoly, the Levant Company. In this detailed study, Michael Talbot shows how the intimate relation between commercial interest and diplomatic practice played out across the period, from the arrival of an ambassador from the restored British crown in 1661 to the sudden evacuation of his successor and the outbreak of the first Ottoman War in 1807. Using a rich variety of sources in English, Ottoman Turkish and Italian, some of them never before...

Mysticism and the New Physics
ISBN: 9780140193282 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Nowhere is the "paradigm shift"--the radical change of perspective that is sweeping the Western world--advancing so rapidly as in physics. Mystics and "idealists" have always propounded the idea that the world is an illusion. Now quantum physics is putting forward theories that reinforce this belief. Until recently, the empirical approach of physicists such as Newton has taught us that the world exists with or without human consciousness to observe it. But we can never be totally objective about reality. The human mind, with all its preconceived notions and prejudices, always intrudes,...

The Holographic Universe
ISBN: 9780586091715 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Despite its apparent materiality, the universe is actually a kind of 3-D projection and is ultimately no more real than a hologram, a 3-D image projected in space and made with the aid of a laser. Using this model, a world-renowned physicist and a Nobel prize winning neurophysiologist has developed a new description of reality. It encompasses not only reality as we know it, including hitherto unexplained phenomena of physics, but is capable of explaining such occurrences as telepathy, paranormal and out-of-the-body experiences, lucid dreaming and even mystical and religious traditions such as...

ISBN: 9780198166955 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why are finales different from other movements?

The Chamber Cantatas of Antonio Vivaldi
ISBN: 9781843832010 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Vivaldi's chamber cantatas for solo voice, some forty in total, are steadily gaining in popularity: but because of their relatively small place in the oeuvre of a composer famed for his productivity, and also on account of the general scholarly neglect of their genre, they are little discussed in the literature. This book comprehensively explores their literary and musical background, their relation to the composer's biography, the chronology of their composition, and their musical qualities. Each cantata is discussed individually, but there is also a broader consideration of aspects...

When 2000-year-old bodies are recovered from the bog, perfectly preserved, it is the discovery of a lifetime for archaeologist David Macauley. But close examination of the corpses reveals a curious fact: all were cruelly, mysteriously murdered, gnawed to death by some unimaginable creature. Soon it becomes apparent that whatever tortured and... Hovern Bog. People live in terror of it-especially the residents of Fenchurch St. Jude, the little village located at its edge.
