The Aegean Sea Dispute between Greece and Turkey: The Consequences for NATO and
￥63.19
The Aegean dispute between Greece and Turkey is a persistent problem between the two allied states. Difference of interpretation of the treaties has contributed in the prevalence of the argument. This dispute consists of five key issues. Greece only accepts one, namely the delimitation of the continental shelf. However, Turkey has introduced and has persisted on the other four, which are the delimitation of the territorial seas, the national airspace and FIR controls over the Aegean Sea, the demilitarization of the Eastern Aegean Islands and finally the disputed islands, islets and rocks which have presented the grey zones issue. All of these matters have persisted for so long, especially after the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923 where the current status quo in the Aegean was introduced, due to economic, political and strategic reasons. The Aegean dispute does not only have consequences for Greece and Turkey; it also affects, negatively, NATO and the European Union. This is an ongoing problem, which if not solved it will produce future problems, not only for the two states, but also for NATO and the EU. A third party may be needed in order to assist in finding a just and permanent solution concerning this dispute, since Greece and Turkey seem incapable of solving this dispute by themselves.

After the Rising & Before the Fall: Two Books in One
￥39.24
This is a special edition of Orna Ross's first two novels. For a limited time only, get both books in one. In 1923, Dan O’Donovan, a young soldier, was lured to his death in the notorious sinking sands that surround the small Irish village of Mucknamore. Now, in 1995, Jo Devereux has returned home to Ireland, needing to know more about this "War of The Brothers” and the secrets that haunted her childhood. Jo’s life in California has come to a full stop and she knows that if she wants to move forward, she’s going to have to go back. Settling down in a makeshift shed overlooking the ocean with a suitcase of old family letters and journals, Jo uncovers astonishing truths about Dan’s death. Truths about her mother and grandmother that have ricocheted across four generations and are igniting again the passionate conflicts of her youth, bringing her back into contact with Rory O’Donovan, Dan’s great-nephew. As Jo negotiates a shifting landscape of love, loss and revenge, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about her family – and her own choices.

Depeche Mode
￥90.03
In 1993, tragic turbulence takes over Ukraine in the post-communist spin-off. As if in somnambulism, Soviet war veterans and upstart businessmen listen to an American preacher of whose type there were plenty at the time in the post-Soviet territory. In Kharkiv, the young communist headquarters is now an advertising agency, and a youth radio station brings Western music, with Depeche Mode in the lead, into homes of ordinary people. In the middle of this craze three friends, an anti-Semitic Jew Dogg Pavlov, an unfortunate entrepreneur Vasia the Communist and the narrator Zhadan, nineteen years of age and unemployed, seek to find their old pal Sasha Carburetor to tell him that his step-father shot himself dead. Characters confront elements of their reality, and, tainted with traumatic survival fever, embark on a sad, dramatic and a bit grotesque adventure.

Ce este copilul? Copilaria ar trebui considerata a fi un construct social? Care au fost atitudinile adultilor fata de copiii de-a lungul timpului? Pe parcursul cartii descoperim copilul privit a fi un pacatos augustinian, care vrea sa-i domine pe cei din jur, un inocent romantic care inca nu este corupt de civilizatie sau o doar o dovada a fertilitatii cuplului parental, aruncat in bratele doicilor indata ce a venit pe lume. In occident, incepand cu secolul douazeci copiii nu mai erau expusi mortii, abandonului sau batailor in aceeasi masura ca in trecut, iar relatiile dintre parinti si copii s-au indulcit. Scopul cartii de fata este acela de a evidentia problemele speciale din istoria copiilor, pe care o plaseaza in contextul social si ?cultural, fara a pierde din vedere experientele individuale care au ajuns pana la noi prin jurnale, autobiografii si marturii orale. Scrisa intr-un limbaj accesibil, cartea se adreseaza psihologilor, sociologilor, istoricilor si tuturor celor interesati de copii si copilarie. ?

Cum definim ?i cum trat?m tulburarea de reglare emo?ional? Emo?iile sunt o parte important? a vie?ii noastre, afect?ndu-ne major ac?iunile, de?i nu ?ntotdeauna suntem con?tien?i de prezen?a lor. Abilitatea de a ?n?elege ?i balansa emo?iile se nume?te reglare emo?ional? sau control emo?ional. De ce este important? reglarea emo?ional?? Pentru c? reprezint? un element esen?ial pe care se sprijin? civiliza?ia uman?. Interac?iunile dintre oameni depind de modul ?n care sim?im ?i ne exprim?m emo?iile. Conceptul de ?tulburare de reglare emo?ional?“ intervine atunci c?nd apar probleme ?n privin?a controlului emo?iilor. De cele mai multe ori, o persoan? care are astfel de probleme ??i va descrie st?rile aleg?nd etichete precum depresiv, anxios, nervos, sup?rat, agitat. Mult mai rar va apela la nararea autentic? a tr?irilor personale, declar?nd c? este instabil, impulsiv, emo?ional, necontrolat, incapabil de a se calma, u?or de frustrat etc. Cartea lui Radu Vrasti prezint? ?ntr-o form? succint? problema tulbur?rii de reglare emo?ional?, a?a cum se prezint? din perspectiva medicinei ?i a psihologiei clinice. ?n plus, aduce informa?ii de ultim? or? despre cum trebuie ?n?eleas?, definit?, diagnosticat? ?i ?tratat?“ at?t medicamentos c?t ?i psihoterapeutic.

Cartea prezint? destinele a trei personaje Alfredo, Andrea ?i Fabio. ?Am f?cut-o pentru binele t?u!“, ?Am f?cut-o pentru binele lui!“, formule care se reg?sesc ?n titlul c?r?ii, sunt folosite des ?n via?a real?, ?ns? ascund de multe ori atitudini si fapte reprobabile – minciun?, arogan??, egoism sau am?gire. Acestea sunt ?micile crime“ s?v?r?ite ?n numele iubirii, pe care le red? Gianna Schelotto. Alfredo, protagonistul primei pove?ti, afl? c? a fost adoptat c?nd avea trei ani, dup? ce el ?i fratele lui fuseser? abandona?i de mama lor. Andrea, personajul central din cea de-a doua poveste, este pus de tat?l s?u ?n fa?a unei realit??i nepl?cute. ?n ultima poveste, Fabio, un avocat influent, de aproape ?aizeci de ani, se confrunt? cu perspectiva inevitabilei sale dec?deri dup? ce afl? c? ar putea suferi de Alzheimer. Unii gre?esc prin faptul c? dezv?luie, al?ii gre?esc prin faptul c? ascund: s?ar zice c? situa?ia e f?r? ie?ire.

Think And Grow Rich: Change Your Mind, Change Your Life!
￥26.98
THE MAN WHO "THOUGHT" HIS WAY INTO PARTNERSHIP WITH THOMAS A. EDISON ??TRULY, "thoughts are things," and powerful things at that, when they are mixed with de?niteness of purpose, persistence, and a BURNING DESIRE for their translation into riches, or other material objects. ??A little more than thirty years ago, Edwin C. Barnes discovered how true it is that men really do THINK AND GROW RICH. His discovery did not come about at one sitting. It came little by little, beginning with a BURNING DESIRE to become a business associate of the great Edison. ??Somewhere, as you read, the secret to which I refer will jump from the page and stand boldly before you, IF YOU ARE READY FOR IT! When it appears, you will recognize it. Whether you receive the sign in the ?rst or the last chapter, stop for a moment when it presents itself, and turn down a glass, for that occasion will mark the most important turning-point of your life. ??Remember, too, as you go through the book, that it deals with facts and not with ?ction, its purpose being to convey a great universal truth through which all who are READY may learn, not only WHAT TO DO, BUT ALSO HOW TO DO IT! and receive, as well, THE NEEDED STIMULUS TO MAKE A START. ??IN EVERY chapter of this book, mention has been made of the money-making secret which has made fortunes for more than ?ve hundred exceedingly wealthy men whom I have carefully analyzed over a long period of years. ??The secret was brought to my attention by Andrew Carnegie, more than a quarter of a century ago. The canny, lovable old Scotsman carelessly tossed it into my mind, when I was but a boy. Then he sat back in his chair, with a merry twinkle in his eyes, and watched carefully to see if I had brains enough to understand the full signi?cance of what he had said to me. ??When he saw that I had grasped the idea, he asked if I would be willing to spend twenty years or more, preparing myself to take it to the world, to men and women who, without the secret, might go through life as failures. I said I would, and with Mr. Carnegie’s cooperation, I have kept my promise. ??This book contains the secret, after having been put to a practical test by thou-sands of people, in almost every walk of life. It was Mr. Carnegie’s idea that the magic formula, which gave him a stupendous fortune, ought to be placed within reach of people who do not have time to investigate how men make money, and it was his hope that I might test and demonstrate the soundness of the formula through the experience of men and women in every calling.
