Faking It
ISBN: 9780521613705 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book polymath William Ian Miller probes one of the dirty little secrets of humanity: that we are all faking it much more than anyone would care to admit. He writes with wit and wisdom about the vain anxiety of being exposed as frauds in our professions, cads in our loves, and hypocrites to our creeds.

'Why Is Your Axe Bloody?': A Reading of Njals Saga
ISBN: 9780198768920 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Njals saga, the greatest of the sagas of the Icelanders, was written around 1280. It tells the story of a complex feud that starts innocently enough--in a tiff over seating arrangement at a local feast--and expands over the course of 20 years to engulf half the country, in which both sides are effectively exterminated, Njal and his family burned to death in their farmhouse, the other faction picked off over the entire course of the feud. Law and feud feature centrally in the saga, Njal, its hero, being the greatest lawyer of his generation. No reading of the saga can do it justice unless it...

Quantum Change: When Epiphanies and Sudden Insights Transform Ordinary Lives
ISBN: 9781572305052 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most of us walk through each day expecting few surprises. If we want to better ourselves or our lives, we map out a path of gradual change, perhaps in counseling or psychotherapy. Psychologists William Miller and Janet C'de Baca were longtime scholars and teachers of traditional approaches to self-improvement when they became intrigued by a different sort of change that was sometimes experienced by people they encountered--something often described as "a bolt from the blue" or "seeing the light." And when they placed a request in a local newspaper for people's stories of unexpected personal...

Mystery of Courage
ISBN: 9780674008267 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Few of us spend much time thinking about courage, but we know it when we see it--or do we? Is it best displayed by marching into danger, making the charge, or by resisting, enduring without complaint? Is it physical or moral, or both? Is it fearless, or does it involve subduing fear? Abner Small, a Civil War soldier, was puzzled by what he called the "mystery of bravery"; to him, courage and cowardice seemed strangely divorced from character and will. It is this mystery, just as puzzling in our day, that William Ian Miller unravels in this engrossing meditation. Miller culls sources...

Audun and the Polar Bear: Luck, Law, and Largesse in a Medieval Tale of Risky Business
ISBN: 9789004271937 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Audun's Story is the tale of an Icelandic farmhand who buys a polar bear in Greenland for no other reason than to give it to the Danish king, half a world away. It can justly be listed among the finest pieces of short fiction in world literature. Terse in the best saga style, it spins a story of complex competitive social action, revealing the cool wit and finely-calibrated reticence of its three main characters: Audun, Harald Hardradi, and King Svein. The tale should have much to engage legal and cultural historians, anthropologists, economists, philosophers, and students of literature. The...
