It was a time of crisis, a time of tragedy--and a time of transcendent courage and determination. Leon Uris's blazing novel is set in the midst of the ghetto uprising that defied Nazi tyranny, as the Jews of Warsaw boldly met Wehrmacht tanks with homemade weapons and bare fists. Here, painted on a canvas as broad as its subject matter, is the compelling of one of the most heroic struggles of modern times.Review"Not only authentic as history . . . . It is convincing as fiction . . . . The story of a sacrifice that had real meaning and will forever be remembered . . . . A fine and important novel." --
Новое историко-психологическое и литературно-философское исследование символики главной книги Михаила Афанасьевича Булгакова позволило выявить, как минимум, пять сквозных слоев скрытого подтекста, не считая оригинальной историософской модели и девяти ключей-методов, зашифрованных Автором в Романе «Мастер и Маргарита».Выявленная взаимосвязь образов, сюжета, символики и идей Романа с книгами Нового Завета и историей рождения христианства настолько глубоки и масштабны, что речь фактически идёт о новом открытии Романа не только для литературоведения, но и для современной философии.Впервые исследование было опубликовано как электронная рукопись в блоге, «живом журнале»: http://oohoo.livejournal.com/, что определило особенности стиля книги.(с) Р.Романов, 2008-2009
The implosion of the Soviet Union was the culmination of a gripping game played out between two men who intensely disliked each other and had different concepts for the future. Mikhail Gorbachev, a sophisticated and urbane reformer, sought to modernize and preserve the USSR; Boris Yeltsin, a coarse and a hard drinking “bulldozer,” wished to destroy the union and create a capitalist Russia. The defeat of the August 1991 coup attempt, carried out by hardline communists, shook Gorbachev’s authority and was a triumph for Yeltsin. But it took four months of intrigue and double-dealing before the Soviet Union collapsed ...
Ce roman commence au printemps 1779, lorsqu'un enfant de dix ans ? l'accent ?tranger, maigre et mal peign?, entre ? l'?cole militaire de Brienne. Quinze ans plus tard, cet enfant entre dans la l?gende. Bonaparte est nomm? g?n?ral en chef des arm?es d'Italie par le Directoire. La suite, c'est Vend?miaire, Lodi, Arcole, la campagne d'Egypte. Cet homme de g?nie, despotique et visionnaire, s'appr?te ? conqu?rir la France, l'Europe et le monde. Son destin imp?rial est trac?. Jamais plus il ne cessera d'inviter au r?ve et de susciter la passion.
Il est Napol?on le Grand: apr?s Austerlitz, qui peut arr?ter l'empereur des Fran?ais? Il bouscule les rois, ? I?na, ? Friedland, ? Wagram. Il conquiert les femmes: Marie Walewska, la Polonaise, et Marie-Louise, l'Autrichienne, la petite-ni?ce de Marie-Antoinette! Son fils, le roi de Rome, descend donc de l'empereur d'Autriche. Quel parcours!Napol?on, que nous suivons pas ? pas, s'humanise. Amant imp?rieux de Marie Walewska et mari attentionn? de Marie-Louise, il voudrait retenir l'Histoire, ne pas avoir ? engager le fer contre le Tsar. Mais il est emport?: "Et ainsi la guerre aura lieu malgr? moi, malgr? lui", confie-t-il.Max Gallo nous fait partager, ? chaque instant de chaque jour, les bonheurs et les ardeurs du p?re, du mari, de l'amant, la volont? et l'esprit de d?cision de cet empereur des rois, lanc? dans le ciel de l'Histoire comme un m?t?ore. "Ce texte fait r?f?rence ? une ?dition ?puis?e ou non disponible de ce titre".
En 1812, il entre en Russie ? la t?te de cinq cent mille hommes. Un oc?an de feu d?truit Moscou. Un chaos de glace et de neige engloutit la Grande Arm?e. Pour la premi?re fois, l'Aigle baisse la t?te. D?s lors, l'Europe conquise se r?veille et se venge. Les puissants le trahissent, sa vieille garde pleure ? Fontainebleau. Le retour de l'?le d'Elbe annonce-t-il un nouveau chant du d?part? Le dernier acte est proche. Le soleil d'Austerlitz ne se l?vera pas sur la plaine boueuse de Waterloo. Encha?n? par les Anglais sur son rocher de Sainte H?l?ne, l'Empereur peut encore vaincre le temps et l'oubli et forger sa m?moire immortelle.

There comes a time when it is both useful, and appropriate, for the purpose of continuing to expand our understanding of the universe we live in, for entirely new fields of study to be created. Separating new from old, exceptions from rules, and useful from previously unquestionable. So learning and experiences from entirely divergent fields have the opportunity to combine knowledge and experience into configurations that allow further growth, understanding, and impact upon ourselves as a species. It is in this way that neuro-linguistic programming came into being. We wish at this point to separate our NLP from the many fields from which it draws information, from the many fields for which it has application. And in this way have greater clarity and freedom to delineate NLP's own methodologies and basic purpose.
Нейролингвистическое программирование — одно из революционных открытий конца столетия, семимильными шагами завоевывающее мир, значимостью не уступающее изобретению Интернета. Авторам предлагаемого бестселлера, в основу которого положен опыт многих лет преподавания НЛП, удалось написать не только исчерпывающее и общедоступное практическое руководство к усвоению этого почти универсального средства достижения успеха в любой сфере коммуникативно-речевой деятельности — от решения семейных и деловых проблем до обнаружения в себе дара дипломата и оратора, — но и попросту увлекательное чтиво — своего рода авантюрный роман, где на материале самых, казалось бы, заурядных житейских историй и ситуаций описываются захватывающие приключения психики по пути к открытию своих поистине неисчерпаемых ресурсов.
JEAN Paul Sartre's No Exit was first performed at the Vieux-Colombier in May 1944, just before the liberation of Paris. Three characters, a man and two women, find themselves in hell, which for them is a living-room with Second Empire furniture. Each of the characters needs the other two in order to create some illusion about himself. Since existence, for Sartre, is the will to project oneself into the future-to create one's future-the opposite of existence, where man has no power to create his future, his hell. This is the meaning of the Sartrean hell in the morality play No ...
Former Marine and Pacific War veteran Robert Leckie tells the story of the invasion of Okinawa, the closing battle of World War II. Leckie is a skilled military historian, mixing battle strategy and analysis with portraits of the men who fought on both sides to give the reader a complete account of the invasion. Lasting 83 days and surpassing D-Day in both troops and material used, the Battle of Okinawa was a decisive victory for the Allies, and a huge blow to Japan. In this stirring and readable account, Leckie provides a complete picture of the battle and its context in the larger war.From Publishers WeeklyFrom Library Journal
is a book by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman exploring the psychology of the act of killing and the military and law enforcement establishments’ attempt to understand and deal with the consequences of killing.The book is heavily based on S. L. A. Marshall’s studies from World War II, which proposed that contrary to popular perception, the majority of soldiers in war do not ever fire their weapons and that this is due to an innate resistance to killing. Based on Marshall’s studies the military instituted training measures to break down this resistance and successfully raised soldier’...
