Гравити Фолз. Легенда о живогрызе = The Legend of the Gobblewonker

GIGGED goes inside the Silicon Valley companies leading the way to this emerging ‘gig economy’. It tells the stories of the workers – from computer programmers to online comment moderators – who are getting by in a new wave of precarious, short-term employment.

When the Titanic sank, so did the Edwardian age that created it. In this brilliantly original history, Gareth Russell recasts a tragedy we think we know to explore an era of seismic change • With new research and previously unseen first-hand accounts, Gareth Russell peers through the most famous portholes in the world to follow six travellers. Amongst them, a Jewish-American immigrant, an American movie star, a member of the British nobility, and a titan of industry. Setting these lives against that of the Titanic, Russell investigates social class, technological advancement, political turmoil and pioneering ambition in an age that swang between folly and brilliance, hubris and triumph • A dramatic history of human endeavour told through extraordinary, diverse personalities, The Ship of Dreams dispels myth to revive the story of a ship that was to become symbolic of its own doomed era

For centuries, scientists had only one way to study the brain: wait for misfortune to strike - strokes, seizures, infections, lobotomies, horrendous accidents, phantom limbs, Siamese twins - and see how the victims changed afterwards. In many cases their survival was miraculous, and observers marvelled at the transformations that took place when different parts of the brain were destroyed. Parents suddenly couldn't recognise their children. Pillars of the community became pathological liars and paedophiles. Some people couldn't speak but could still sing. Others couldn't read but could write • The stories of these people laid the foundations of modern neuroscience and, century by century, key cases taught scientists what every last region of the brain did

В историю мировой литературы английский писатель Артур Конан Дойл (1859-1930) вошел как создатель Шерлока Холмса, гениального сыщика с Бейкер-стрит, 221-6. Приключения Холмса и его друга доктора Уотсона вот уже более столетия приковывают внимание читателей всего мира. Само имя Шерлок Холмс стало нарицательным. И это не случайно - рассказы и повести об этом бессмертном герое отмечены всеми достоинствами первоклассной беллетристики: богатой выдумкой, безукоризненной интригой, точной и легкой манерой изложения, а сам герой являет собой идеал рыцарственного борца со злом, воплощенным в преступлении • Настоящий том включает повести "Собака Баскервилей" (1902) и "Долина Страха" (1915) • Книга на английском языке • The Hound of the Baskervilles is the classic detective chiller

The writings of one of the great woman adventurers of the twentieth century - the 'female Lawrence of Arabia' - and the subject of a new film starring Nicole Kidman • In the last century, few people lived more astounding - or influential - lives than Gertrude Bell.

After the defeat of the Ottoman Empire, she was instrumental in drawing the borders that define the region today, including creating an independent Iraq. This is the epic story of Bell's life, told through her letters, military dispatches, diary entries, and other writings. It offers a unique and intimate look behind the public mask of a woman who shaped nations
