2013 Reprint of 1917 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. George Washington Carey (1845-1924) was an American physician known for his 'chemistry of life' publications, a subject which he referred to as biochemistry. Carey combined a mixture of religion, astrology, physiology, anatomy, and chemistry, themed particularly with a mineral-based theory of human disease to explain his views on human chemistry. He continues to be popular within new-age and homeopathic circles. In the context of a person viewed as a "human molecule", Carey was the first to state that a person's body is a "chemical formula in operation."

During the first half of the twentieth century, E. L. Koller wrote a series of art instruction books for home study, designed to simplify various techniques for beginning artists -- and help established artists polish their craft. The books are as relevant -- and the information as essential -- to artists today as it was then. A classic in this series, Light, Shade and Shadow, shows how the study of light is a necessary foundation for creating an appealing work of art.Even the most beautiful drawing can appear flat without shading. But with this expert guide, every artist can learn how to use shadow to add visual dimension and drama to their work, and to master techniques such as highlighting and gradation. Beginning with the basics -- casting light on simple geometric shapes -- and progressing to the human figure, these step-by-step techniques, illustrations, and exercises

Kniha se věnuje úloze masových médií v procesech konstrukce národní identity. V první části práce se autor soustředí na prezentaci vybraných mechanismů národně integračního působení masových médií, z nichž některé dále empiricky zkoumá v rámci případové studie českého televizního zpravodajství. Druhá část knihy se zaměřuje především na analýzu diskurzu mediálního imperialismu jako specifického typu přístupu k otázce globalizace. S pomocí řady teoretických prací i empirických údajů z různých částí světa se autor pokouší odhalit neadekvátnost tohoto paradigmatu, přehlížejícího dynamiku globálního mediálního trhu v posledních desetiletích, ale také očividnou rezistenci publika vůči importovanýcm produktům a tendenci preferovat spíše lokální/národní mediální obsahy.

Román Kto chytá v žite je celosvetový fenomén: od čias svojho vzniku bol preložený do takmer všetkých svetových jazykov. Každý rok sa z neho predá okolo 250 000 výtlačkov a doteraz sa predalo 65 miliónov kníh. V ankete vydavateľstva Modern Library čitatelia zaradili Kto chytá v žite medzi sto najlepších po anglicky písaných románov 20. storočia.Jedno z najvýznamnejších diel americkej literatúry minulého storočia bezpochyby poznačila doba jeho vzniku – J. D. Salinger ho publikoval v r. 1951 -, no napriek tomu je stále aktuálne. Autor ho pôvodne napísal ako román pre dospelých, ale vďaka téme tínedžerskej vzbury proti svetu dospelých a živému, slangovému jazyku si ho veľmi rýchlo obľúbila dospievajúca mládež a hlavný protagonista románu a antihrdina Holden Caulfield sa stal ikonou vtedajšej generácie násťročných.Príbeh rozprávaný sedemnásťročným Holdenom zachytáva necelé tri dni jeho cesty domov po nedobrovoľnom odchode z prípravky v Pencey, jeho blúdenie predvianočným New Yorkom, kde sa konfrontuje s množstvom ľudí, medzi ktorými sú spolužiaci, bývalý učiteľ, vidiečanky zo Seattlu či prostitútka a jej pasák. Holdenovo putovanie v priestore je však predovšetkým putovaním v duchovnom zmysle: putovaním za sebauvedomením a sebapoznaním, putovaním z izolácie k pocitu spolupatričnosti s okolitým svetom.Postoje mravne čistého tínedžera búriaceho sa proti pretvárke, malomeštiactvu a skostnateným názorom môžu byť aj dnes príkladom a inšpiráciou pre každého z nás, či už máme sedemnásť, alebo sedemdesiat rokov.Číslo vydania 5Jazyky slovenskýPočet strán 224Dátum uvedenia titulu 2019-04-09Rozmery 206x138x23Hmotnosť 336gTypKnihy viazané

The Republicans' "golden boy" -- and a loyal, unquestioning tool of the powerful special interests -- handsome, unthreatening, Florida governor-by-default Marlon Conrad seems a virtual shoo-in for re-election. That is, until he undergoes a radical personality shift during a bloody military action in the Balkans. Now it's just three weeks before the election and Marlon is suddenly talking about "issues" and "reform" as he crosses the length and breadth of his home state with an amnesiac speechwriter and a chief of staff who turns catatonic in the presence of minorities. The governor's new-found conscience might well cost him the election, though. And it appears that pretty much everybody from Tallahassee to Miami Beach is trying to kill

The aim of the book is to present original and though-provoking essays in human paleontology and prehistory, which are at the forefront of human evolutionary research, in honor of Professor Yoel Rak (a leading scholar in paleoanthropology). The volume presents a collection of original papers contributed by many of Yoel's friends and colleagues from all over the globe.Contributions from experts around the globe fall roughly into three broad categories: Reflections on some of the broad theoretical questions of evolution, and especially about human evolution; the early hominins, with special emphasis on Australopithecus afarensis and Paranthropus; and the Neanderthals, that contentious group of our closest extinct relatives. Within and across these categories, nearly every paper addresses combinations of methodological, analytical and theoretical questions that are

When does a poem tell the truth? When is it a lie? Intimate moments carefully re-appraised (first dates, break ups, young parenthood, etc.) are the raw material of these vivid and wholly engaging poems, written in Irish, and translated here by the author - a process that itself raises questions about poetry and truth.But a great deal of the power of N Ghr ofa's work comes from the way her personal history links her to the wider world - to the imaginative encounters that prompt so many of the poems, to an acute awareness of the restless nature of language itself, and not least to the women who preceded her and who remain a steadying and guiding presence
