Frank Herbert will forever be known as the “author of Dune,” the science fiction masterpiece that made his career and made his name. But he was an exceptionally diverse author who wrote in numerous genres. Even at the beginning of his writing career, Frank Herbert wrote whatever inspired him, irrespective of genre, market, or audience tastes. After the success of his first novel The Dragon in the Sea (1955), Herbert wrote numerous novels and short stories that failed to find a market. He persevered until finally, seven years later, he wrote the most unpublishable novel of all, Dune—which, once it finally found a home with an obscure publisher, finally made Frank Herbert a household name synonymous with science fiction. This volume collects four of those complete, never-before-published novels written before Dune: High-Opp, a dystopian science fiction novel; Angels’ Fall, a jungle survival adventure; A Game of Authors, a Cold War thriller; and A Thorn in the Bush, a mainstream novel based on some of Herbert’s experiences in Mexico.

Small arms have developed hugely since the introduction of the machine gun in the 1870s. Magazine-fed rifles, submachine guns, automatic pistols and, later, assault rifles and personal defence weapons have changed the face of infantry warfare, offering a range of weaponry designed for both the specialist and novice. The World’s Greatest Small Arms features 52 weapons from the late 19th century to the present day. The book includes the best-known weapons from throughout the modern era, from the Gatling gun, SMLE rifle and Luger pistol, to the Uzi, FN MAG and the M110 sniper rifle. Great iconic weapons, such as the Colt M1911 pistol, Bren Gun, MP5 submachine gun, and Steyr AUG rifle are featured, as well as timeless classics still in use today: the M2 Browning 50 cal, AK-47 and M16 rifle. Each weapon is illustrated with a colour profile artwork and photographs, along with a description of the weapon’s development and history, key features and a full specifications box. Including more than 200 artworks and photographs, The World’s Greatest Small Arms is a colourful guide for the military historian.

“From the fury of the Northmen, good Lord deliver us.” – Anonymous monk, Noirmoutier, France, 9th century AD Beginning in 789AD, the Vikings raided monasteries, sacked cities and invaded western Europe. They looted and enslaved their enemies. But that is only part of their story. In long boats they discovered Iceland and America (both by accident) and also sailed up the Seine to Paris (which they sacked). They settled from Newfoundland to Russia, founded Dublin and fought battles as far afield as the Caspian Sea. A thousand years after their demise, traces of the Vikings remain all the way from North America to Istanbul. They traded walruses with Inuits, brought Russian furs to Western Europe and took European slaves to Constantinople. Their graves contain Arab silver, Byzantine silks and Frankish weapons. In this accessible book, the whole narrative of the Viking story is examined from the eighth to the eleventh centuries. Arranged thematically, Vikings: A History of the Norse People examines the Norsemen from exploration to religion to trade to settlement to weaponry to kingdoms to their demise and legacy. But today questions remain: what prompted the first Viking raids? What stopped their expansion? And how much of the tales of murder, rape and pillage is myth? Illustrated with more than 200 photographs, maps and artworks, Vikings: A History of the Norse People is an expertly written account of a people who have long captured the popular imagination.

Londonban él egy lány (Anna), és Budapesten egy fiú (Olivér). Mindenben kül?nb?znek, mint t?z és víz, mégis egymásba szeretnek. Helyzetüket távolságon és ellentéteken túl ügybuzgó barátok és segít?kész rokonok sora nehezíti. De hogy még ez se legyen elég, t?rténetüket egy férfi-n? szerz?páros írja meg, Olivér és Anna szemsz?géb?l. Másképp nem lehetne visszaadni ellentmondásos kapcsolatuk alakulását, és ett?l lesz az egész csiklandósan szórakoztató, romantikus és eredeti hangvétel?. No meg izgalmas, hiszen az utolsó oldalon is nyitva marad: vajon Anna vagy Olivér sztorija igaz?

Mivel az informatika egyre inkább átsz?vi életünket, a szoftverek min?ségével kapcsolatos elvárások egyre magasabbak. Egy szoftver el?állítása azonban nem csak programozásból áll, és a programozóktól sem lehet elvárni emberfeletti képességeket, a megrendel? el nem mondott elképzelésének t?kéletesen megfelel?, teljesen hibamentes munkát, mivel csak az nem hibázik, aki nem is dolgozik. Az informatika világában a szoftvertesztel?k azok, akik a szoftverek min?ségéért dolgoznak. A szoftvertesztel?k?n óriási felel?sség nyugszik és folyamatosan elvárások kereszttüzében kell helytállniuk. Mégis, szoftvertesztelés nélkül a legt?bb szoftver el sem jutna a felhasználókig, vagy ha igen, akkor megjelenésük botrányokkal, valamint óriási anyagi és erk?lcsi veszteségekkel járna együtt, a rengeteg fel nem tárt programhiba miatt. Szoftvertesztelésre és tesztel?kre ezért mindenképp szükség van. K?nyvünk a professzionális szoftvertesztelés alapjaival ismerteti meg az olvasót, számos gyakorlati példával f?szerezve, mell?zve a száraz, pusztán technikai megk?zelítés? leírásokat, kezdve a szoftvertesztelés általános bemutatásától, a fogalmak ismertetését?l, majd részleteiben tárgyalva a szoftvertesztelést és annak helyét a fejlesztési folyamatokban. Segítségével jó adag gyakorlati ismerettel vértezhetjük fel magunkat, melynek során valódi, a tesztelést támogató alkalmazásokat ismerhetünk meg, biztos alapot nyújtva a szoftvertesztelésben elhelyezked? leend? és gyakorló szakembereknek a mindennapi munkájukhoz. A szoftverteszteléssel most ismerked? szakembereknek és laikusoknak kimondottan hasznos lehet ez a k?nyv, de fejleszt?k és cégvezet?k számára is tartogat hasznos információkat, melyek segítségével bevezethetik, illetve hatékonyabbá tehetik a szoftvertesztelést munkájuk során.

KIRKUS REVIEW A U.S. Navy physician shares his secrets for a more successful life in this self-help work. Mathurin conceived of his debut book when he realized how critical checklists are in the worlds of naval aviation and medicine. Itemized lists, he says, help avoid flight mishaps and operating room errors, so he wondered, “Why not apply this same concept to people’s lives to help them achieve their highest potential?” That epiphany resulted in this book—a kind of instruction manual for living that breaks achievement into seven “checklist items”: “Goals,” “Take Action,” “Courage to Consistently Commit,” “Value Resources,” “Investing in Yourself and Others,” “Giving Back,” and “Create a Legacy of Service to Others.” An introductory section helpfully explains each of the core concepts, in brief, and these same blocks of text are repeated at the beginning of each of seven chapters. The items themselves are unlikely to be new to most readers, as many of the ideas are common in self-help literature (such as “Have the courage to go the extra mile with everything that you do, each and every time”). But the presentation of the material feels more novel, as the overarching checklist concept isn’t taken literally; the book’s merit derives from the idea that one can systematically address several broad areas in the quest for a fuller life. At the very least, this notion gives the book a highly focused structure that makes it easy for readers to navigate.? Unsurprisingly, given the author’s military and medical background, there’s a sense of logic and precision to this book. Each chapter’s content is uniformly positive and always emphasizes proactivity, but it’s also clear that the book isn’t intended to highlight step-by-step procedure. Instead, it offers a wide-ranging, general discussion of each list item, using examples and personal anecdotes to illustrate specific points. To that end, Mathurin writes from a very personal perspective—sharing, for example, how he grew up in poverty in Haiti—and he explains with some eloquence how he used the principles that he lays out in his book to “transform [his] life from famine to abundance.” He writes with a great deal of insight, as well, offering not only accounts of his own experiences, but also the wisdom of others, such as investor Warren Buffett and the late self-help authors Zig Ziglar and Napoleon Hill. Mathurin’s style often takes an inspirational tone, as he exudes a sense of confidence in his approach to life: “Success,” writes Mathurin, “is only ten percent intention and ninety percent action.” About leading others, he writes, “always strive to be the leader you would want to follow; strive to be the calm voice in the midst of the chaos, and—while you are at it—strive to be the change that you want to see.” Finally, Mathurin stresses that you can “lay the path to your legacy by focusing on giving back the acts of kindness you have received along the way.”? A book of noble, sincere, and expressive advice for living.

"---this fantasy of a night-black, dead planet, with the remains of the human race concentrated in a stupendously vast metal pyramid & besieged by monstrous, hybrid & altogether unknown forces of darkness, is something that no reader can ever forger" (H. P. Lovecraft)."One of the most potent pieces of macabre imagination ever written" -?H.P.Lovecraft. Lovecraft wasn't wrong: this is, perhaps, the greatest single work of fantastic fiction in the English language. The sun has died, as have the stars. Not a solitary light shines in the heavens. The days of light are nothing by a legend?-?they are a story told to soothe children. The last millions of humans still live in their Last Redoubt -?but the end of their days is at hand.

Aceste cinci eseuri pot constitui un (incomplet) tratat de literatur? comparat? care are ?n vedere ca termen de referin?? deschiderile teoretice diversificate din ultimul deceniu al secolului trecut ?i ?nceputul noului secol. Caracterul fluid al no?iunii face din comparatism o mitologie plural? at?ta vreme c?t lipse?te o teorie general unificatoare. Imposibilitatea de a-i legitima pe deplin obiectul, indeterminat ?i imprecis, l-a f?cut pe Charles Bernheimer s? defineasc? literatura comparat? drept o ??tiin?? anxiogenic?“. Este literatura comparat? o disciplin? autonom? sau, dimpotriv?, una anexat? studiilor culturale care nu dispun de o justificare teoretic?? Direct sau indirect, cartea lui Vasile Voia, profesor la Facultatea de Litere a Universit??ii Babe?-Bolyai, a luat forma unui discurs polemic. Comparatismul modern maximalist, renun??nd la rigorile anacronice ale comparatismului francez, p?n? la a uita de text ca obiect estetic, a devenit domeniul predilect al tuturor diletantismelor ?i formelor estetice ?n care dispare orice rigoare. Vasile Voia se situeaz? principial de partea pozi?iei ferme exprimate de Adrian Marino, ?n descenden?a lui René Wellek ?i René Etiemble, a profesorilor de la Yale, Harold Bloom ?i Peter Brooks, care au militat pentru men?inerea canonului tradi?ional occidental ?i a esteticului ca valoare primordial? a operei literare.

Povestea celui mai subestimat organ al corpuluiCheia unei vie?i mai s?n?toase ?i mai fericite se afl? ?n?untrul nostru.De?i intestinul este aproape la fel de important ca inima sau creierul, ?tim foarte pu?ine lucruri despre el. Giulia Enders ne arat? c?, departe de a fi doar acea parte utilitar? ?i – trebuie s? recunoa?tem – cam jenant? a corpului, a?a cum ne imagin?m, este unul dintre organele cele mai complexe, mai importante ?i chiar miraculoase ale anatomiei umane. Iar oamenii de ?tiin?? abia sunt pe cale s? descopere c?t de mult are acesta de oferit. Noi cercet?ri arat? c? bacteriile intestinale pot juca un rol ?ntr-o gam? larg? de afec?iuni, cum ar fi obezitatea, alergiile ?i Alzheimer.Pornind de la experien?a personal? a bolii care a inspirat munca ei de cercetare ?i continu?nd prin a explica totul de la fundamentele absorb?iei nutrimentelor la ultimele descoperiri ?tiin?ifice care leag? bacteriile intestinale de depresie, Enders a scris o carte de s?n?tate antrenant? ?i informativ?. ?armul discret al intestinului ne arat? f?r? t?gad? c? putem s? beneficiem cu to?ii de pe urma cunoa?terii minunatei lumi a func?ion?rii noastre interne.Mesajul autoarei este simplu: dac? ne trat?m bine intestinele, ?i ele ne vor trata le fel de bine. Dar cum ?i de ce trebuie s? facem asta? Putem afla citind aceast? surprinz?tor de agreabil? explorare a celui mai subestimat dintre organele noastre.?Cu entuziasm ?i un sim? al umorului foarte dezvoltat, Enders explic? tot ceea ce cititorii voiau ?i nu voiau s? ?tie despre intestinele lor... cartea aceasta sfideaz? plictiseala.“ – Publishers Weekly?Surprinz?tor, cartea se cite?te ca un thriller. Entuziasmul autoarei fa?? de subiectul tratat este contagios. Desenele alb-negru realizate de sora ei reu?esc s? aduc? un plus de informa?ii ?ntr-o manier? amuzant?. E ?mbucur?toare absen?a re?etelor ?i a limbajului tipic pentru c?r?ile de self-help.“ – Self Magazine

Broken Devices - Book 3 of The Chained AdeptThe largest city in the world has just discovered its missing wizards. It seems the Kigali empire has ignited a panic that threatens internal ruin and the only chained wizard it knows that’s still alive is Penrys.The living wizards and the dead are not her people, not unless she makes them so. All they have in common is a heavy chain and a dead past—the lives that were stolen from them are beyond recall.What remains are unanswered questions about who made them this way. And why. And what Penrys plans to do to find out.---SETTING A TRAP TO CATCH THE MAKERS OF CHAINED WIZARDS. On a Crooked Track - Book 4 of The Chained AdeptA clue has sent Penrys back to Ellech, the country where she first appeared four short years ago with her mind wiped, her body stripped, and her neck chained. It's time to enlist the help of the Collegium of Wizards which sheltered her then.Things don't work out that way, and she finds herself retracing a dead scholar's crooked track and setting herself up as a target to confirm her growing suspicions. But what happens to bait when the prey shows its teeth?In this conclusion to the series, tracking old crimes brings new dangers, and a chance for redemption.

Friederich Nietzsche a fost un important filosof german, poet ?i critic al culturii. E celebru datorit? conceptului de ?voin?? de putere“, prin intermediul c?ruia a contestat etica tradi?ional?. N?scut ?n 1844 l?ng? Leipzig, Germania, a inspirat, prin intermediul teoriilor sale, oameni din toate domeniile, de la dansatori ?i poe?i la psihologi ?i revolu?ionari sociali?ti. ?n acest volum veti g?si fragmente din lucr?rile sale cele mai importante. Seria Lec?ii de via?? din The School of Life alege c?te un mare g?nditor ?i pune accentul pe acele idei ale sale care au o ?nsemn?tate profund? pentru noi, cei de ast?zi.

Manualul de psihiatrie social? ?i psihoterapiereprezint? o ini?iativ? singular? ?n peisajul publica?iilor de specialitate din Rom?nia, de tratare exhaustiv? a unui domeniu pu?in explorat. Inten?ia declarat? a autorilor este introducerea unui limbaj obiectiv, dar totodat? accesibil, pe ?n?elesul tuturor, care s? deschid? calea unei comunic?ri reale ?ntre profesioni?ti ?i cei afecta?i de boala psihic?. Folosind termeni mai pu?in uzuali ?n limbajul de specialitate – confruntare, peisaj, atitudine fundamental? –, cartea introduce cititorului rom?n no?iunea de psihiatrie social?, ?n care ?cel?lalt“, a?a cum este denumit ?n carte cel suferind de o boal? psihic?, este considerat egalul celui s?n?tos ?i tratat ca atare.Manualul vine ?n ?nt?mpinarea cititorului care studiaz? pentru examenul de psihiatrie sau psihoterapie, indiferent de specializarea aleas? (asistent medical, medic, psiholog, nutri?ionist, ergoterapeut, kinetoterapeut). Totodat?, el se adreseaz? lucr?torilor ?n psihiatrie, precum ?i tuturor celor care au avut experien?e psihiatrice, fie ca pacien?i, fie ca apar?in?tori.??n psihiatria social?, accentul se pune pe confruntarea uman? cu omul bolnav psihic, adic? ?cel?lalt?, a?a cum este numit at?t de des ?n carte. Eu pot recunoa?te ?n cel?lalt un egal. El este, ?n pofida alterit??ii, un om deosebit de normal, la fel ca mine. Pot recunoa?te ?ns? ?i caracterul diferit, str?in, pe care abia dac? ?l ?n?eleg sau nu ?l ?n?eleg deloc, ?i care ?mi indic? ?n mod clar o diferen?? fa?? de cel?lalt. ?n psihiatria social? este ?ntotdeauna vorba despre proiectarea acestei rela?ii complexe, despre completitudinea percep?iei mele ?n ceea ce ?l prive?te pe cel?lalt, despre aten?ia fa?? de el ?i despre propria-mi disponibilitate pentru nou, pentru nea?teptat. Ideea este de a ?nv??a continuu.“
