Описание: The mysteries of tarot come to vivid life with this deluxe boxed card set, featuring a distinctly modern take on an ancient card game and divining tool.

The Illuminated Tarot is an inventive reimagining of the visual system used by conventional tarot decks. Illustrator and designer Caitlin Keegan has created a lush, oversized set of 53 cards, combining elements of traditional tarot (wands, pentacles, swords, cups, and the Major and Minor Arcana) with a uniquely rich color palette and standard playing card suits (hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades). The result serves two purposes: The Illuminated Tarot can be used for spiritual self-reflection and to play standard card games like poker, solitaire, and Go Fish

With a guidebook that assigns meanings to each card based on the Major and Minor Arcana and instructions for simple card spreads, users will also learn how to perform their own tarot readings. The Illuminated Tarot is at once a fun addition to game night and a beautiful tool that can lead to increased self-knowledge and enlightenment.

Описание: The Face of Battle is military history from the battlefield: a look at the direct experience of individuals at `the point of maximum danger`. It examines the physical conditions of fighting, the particular emotions and behaviour generated by battle, as well as the motives that impel soldiers to stand and fight rather than run away.

Описание: A masterly look at the value and limitations of intelligence in the conduct of war from the premier military historian of our time, John Keegan.

Intelligence gathering is an immensely complicated and vulnerable endeavor. And it often fails. Until the invention of the telegraph and radio, information often traveled no faster than a horse could ride, yet intelligence helped defeat Napoleon. In the twentieth century, photo analysts didn't recognize Germany's V-2 rockets for what they were; on the other hand, intelligence helped lead to victory over the Japanese at Midway. In Intelligence in War, John Keegan illustrates that only when paired with force has military intelligence been an effective tool, as it may one day be in besting al-Qaeda.

Описание: The instant "New York Times" bestseller and publishing phenomenon: Marina Keegan s posthumous collection of award-winning essays and stories sparkles with talent, humanity, and youth ("O, The Oprah Magazine").
Marina Keegan s star was on the rise when she graduated magna cum laude from Yale in May 2012. She had a play that was to be produced at the New York Fringe Festival and a job waiting for her at "The" "New Yorker." Tragically, five days after graduation, Marina died in a car crash.
Marina left behind a rich, deeply expansive trove of writing that, like her title essay, captures the hope, uncertainty, and possibility of her generation. Her short story Cold Pastoral was published on NewYorker.com. Her essay Even Artichokes Have Doubts was excerpted in the "Financial Times, " and her book was the focus of a Nicholas Kristof column in "The New York Times." Millions of her contemporaries have responded to her work on social media.
As Marina wrote: We can still do anything. We can change our minds. We can start over We re so young. We can t, we MUST not lose this sense of possibility because in the end, it s all we have. "The Opposite of Loneliness" is an unforgettable collection of Marina s essays and stories that articulates the universal struggle all of us face as we figure out what we aspire to be and how we can harness our talents to impact the world. How do you mourn the loss of a fiery talent that was barely a tendril before it was snuffed out? Answer: Read this book. A clear-eyed observer of human nature, Keegan could take a clever idea...and make it something beautiful ("People")."
