Описание: The international bestselling novel sold in 21 countries, about grief, mourning, and the joy of survival, inspired by a real phone booth in Japan with its disconnected "wind" phone, a place of pilgrimage and solace since the 2011 tsunami When Yui loses both her mother and her daughter in the tsunami, she begins to mark the passage of time from that date onward: Everything is relative to March 11, 2011, the day the tsunami tore Japan apart, and when grief took hold of her life. Yui struggles to continue on, alone with her pain. Then, one day she hears about a man who has an old disused telephone booth in his garden. There, those who have lost loved ones find the strength to speak to them and begin to come to terms with their grief. As news of the phone booth spreads, people travel to it from miles around. Soon Yui makes her own pilgrimage to the phone booth, too. But once there she cannot bring herself to speak into the receiver. Instead she finds Takeshi, a bereaved husband whose own daughter has stopped talking in the wake of her mother's death. Simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming, The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World is the signpost pointing to the healing that can come after.

Описание: Hattie Cross knows what you're thinking: Zombie sex? Ewwwww. But she also knows that since a virus turned 99.9999 percent of human males into zombies, it's statistically impossible to meet--let alone date--the remaining 0.00001 percent. So she writes "The Girls' Guide to Dating Zombies" to help her fellow single women navigate the zombie-relationship waters.Her practical how-to impresses the CEO of the largest drug company in the world, and before she knows it, Hattie, a reporter for a downmarket tabloid that specializes in conspiracy theories, is sitting down with the woman who single-handedly invented the zombie-behavioral-modification market. Granted access to the inner sanctum of zombaceuticals, she meets an actual, living, breathing M-A-N.Now Hattie, the consummate professional, is acting like a single girl at the end of the twentieth century: self-conscious, klutzy and unable to form a coherent sentence without babbling. Worst of all, the human male appears to have impaired her ability to think clearly. Because all of a sudden she's convinced a conspiracy is afoot at the drug company and it seems to go all the way to the top

Описание: A woman in the British Horticultural Society The very idea horrifies everyone, including ardent horticulturalist Lavinia Harlow, whose own name has been put forth for membership by the provoking Marquess of Huntly. He does it as a joke, of course, to get back at her for an imagined slight-well, to be fair, she had insulted his writing-and Vinnie, older sister to the infamous Harlow Hoyden, is far too sensible to rise to his ridiculous challenge.Determined to head off further scandal (her name has already been recorded in the betting book at Brooks's ), Vinnie dashes off a polite note refusing the honor-which she has every intention of sending. Really. Only she can't help but chafe at the way everyone keeps demanding that she decline at once, even the marquess. Oh, especially the marquess, whose perfection she finds intolerable. Who ever heard of a gentleman being so handsome and so intelligent and so well informed about foreign flora? Clearly, the man needs to be taken down a peg, and somehow, despite all twenty-four years of faultless propriety, Vinnie is just the hoyden to do it.
Описание: Henry Jacobson, a robot in the 13th upgrade, can't process the data. Sure, humans can follow simple instructions to sweep floors and do other menial tasks that robots don't want to do, but they can't do anything complicated. Humans are just simple gadgets invented to make the lives of robots easier.Then his dad's boss gives them a HueManTech ETC-420- GX-2 and Henry's life is turned upside down. This human unit is like no other. It can read, play video games and, it seems to Henry, think for itself. In fact, the more time Henry spends with the ETC, the more the gadget seems less like a human unit and more like a full-fledged robot with thoughts and feelings.But that's not possible. Is it? And if the ETC really is as smart as it seems, Henry can't help but wonder: Is the human just the next-generation technology or a secret government weapon that will ultimately destroy them all?

Описание:
The Heidelberg Academy of Sciences is undertaking the first comprehensive historical and critical commentary of Friedrich Nietzsche's works. Although Nietzsche is one of the most influential thinkers of the modern age, until now, no general commentary on his oeuvre has been published that addresses the full spectrum of philosophical, historical, and literary factors and contexts that inform his work. This commentary aims to draw together a wide range of existing scholarship, and should considerably enhance our understanding of this important philosopher. Introductory overviews will explain the conceptual interrelationships and structures in Nietzsche's writings while also illuminating the history of their production and subsequent reception. Comprehensive annotations will address individual textual passages and their origins, thus providing a new perspective on Nietzsche's works. This annotated edition will represent an indispensible basis for future research on Nietzsche.
The commentary will be organized in the same manner as the Critical Study Edition (KSA) by Giorgio Colli and Mazzino Montinari.A total of six volumes are planned, to be released in multiple sub-volumes. A seventh volume will contain various indexes. The entire edition will be completed in 2023.

Описание:
Psychoanalyst Dr. Karyne E. Messina can't diagnose former President Donald J. Trump. But his behavior matches what's known, in her circles, as projective identification people who are distinctly uncomfortable with their own thoughts and actions may unconsciously try to dispose of those feeling by blaming others. Instead of taking responsibility, they project, and their victims might not even realize quite what's wrong.
Over the past four years, Donald Trump has encouraged the development of a generation of people inclined to this behavior, along with hateful identity politics and bigotry, and who no longer know how to engage in thoughtful, meaningful debate.
Rooted in psychoanalysis, Aftermath is a prescription for our country, and a guide to healing. It will take time, patience, and a willingness to take stock of our country's divergent viewpoints. We must also demand that our leaders engage in a process that incorporates a respectful way of communicating. By combatting projective identification in all its forms, Messina says, we can make progress, learn from each other, and heal the divide.

Описание:
Migration to new destinations in Europe and the United States has expanded dramatically over the past few decades. Within these destinations, there is a corresponding greater variety of ethnic, cultural, and/or religious diversity. This timely volume, The Politics of New Immigrant Destinations, considers the challenges posed by this proliferation of diversity for governments, majority populations, and immigrants.
The contributors assess the effectiveness of the policy and political responses that have been spawned by increasing diversity in four types of new immigrant destinations: “intermediate” destination countries—Ireland and Italy; culturally distinct regions experiencing new migration such as Catalonia in Spain or the American South; new destinations within traditional destination countries like the state of Utah and rural towns in England; and “early migration cycle” countries including Latvia and Poland.
The Politics of New Immigrant Destinations examines how these new destinations for immigrants compare to traditional destinations, with respect to their policy responses and success at integrating immigrants, offering perspectives from both immigrants and natives.
