The story of the universe in thirty cosmological conundrums • In the constellation of Eridanus there lurks a cosmic mystery. It's as if something has taken a huge bite out of the universe, leaving a super-void. What could be the culprit? A super massive black hole? Another, bigger universe? Or an expanding vacuum bubble, destined to envelop and annihilate everything in existence? • Scientists now understand the history of our universe better than the history of our own planet, but they continue to uncover startling new riddles-the hole in the universe being just one. In this electrifying book, award-winning physicist Paul Davies walks us through the puzzles and paradoxes that have preoccupied cosmologists from ancient Greece to the present day. Laying bare the audacious research that has led us to mind-bending solutions, Davies reveals how we might begin to approach the greatest outstanding enigmas of all подробнее

From a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, a shocking investigation into the cycles of racial violence in America • Barack Obama's election in 2008 was a moment of true, unabashed hope. But after two terms shadowed by a growing white supremacist movement, Obama was replaced by an openly nativist administration. So what the hell happened? • In Whitelash, Wesley Lowery places a decade of American carnage in historical context, uncovering the horror that racial violence has wrought in our era. As he looks to America's past to understand the rise of Donald Trump and the 'whitelash' following the election of Barack Obama, a frightening pattern emerges. Every period of perceived black advancement has triggered a violent reaction by white Americans, the old system's beneficiaries

Allen Lane Regenesis. Feeding the World without Devouring the Planet Monbiot George

Сельское хозяйство является крупнейшей в мире причиной разрушения окружающей среды - и той сферой, о которой мы меньше всего готовы говорить. Мы критикуем разрастание городов, но сельское хозяйство охватывает в тридцать раз больше земель. Мы вспахали, огородили и выпасали огромные участки планеты, вырубая леса, убивая диких животных и отравляя реки и океаны, чтобы прокормить себя. И все же миллионы людей по-прежнему голодают • Теперь сама продовольственная система начинает давать сбои. Но, как показывает нам Джордж Монбиот в блестящей, вдохновляюще оригинальной книге "Регенезис. Накормить мир, не пожирая планету", мы можем решить эту проблему • Книга на английском языке • From the bestselling author of Feral, a breathtaking first glimpse of a new future for food and for humanity • Farming is the world's greatest cause of environmental destruction - and the one we are least prepared to talk about

Penguin The Steppe and Other Stories, 1887-91 Чехов Антон Павлович

The Steppe and Other Stories 1887-91 is a collection that reveals Anton Chekhov's evolution from a novice writer to a master of short narrative form. This Penguin Classics edition is translated by Ronald Wilks with an introduction by Donald Rayfield • This collection of Chekhov's finest early writing is headlined by 'The Steppe', which established his reputation, telling the unforgettable tale of a boy's journey to a new school in Kiev, travelling through majestic landscapes towards an unknown destiny. 'Gusev' depicts an ocean voyage, where the sea takes on a terrifying, primeval power; 'The Kiss' portrays a shy soldier's failed romantic encounter; and in 'The Duel' two men's enmity ends in farce. Haunting and highly atmospheric, all the stories in this volume show a writer emerging from the shadow of his masters - great Russian writers such as Leo Tolstoy, Ivan Turgenev and Nikolai Gogol - and discovering his own voice

Part of a new six-volume series of the best in classic horror, selected by award-winning director Guillermo del Toro • Howard Phillips Lovecraft's unique contribution to American literature was a melding of traditional supernaturalism (derived chiefly from Edgar Allan Poe) with the genre of science fiction that emerged in the early 1920s.
