Rolling Stone This incredible investigation will open your eyes to an entire universe of data sharing and online marketing occurring at octaves too low for human consciousness to detect. Big Think A work that is, by turns, both surprising and banal, provocative and benign, empowering and frustrating. THE QUIETUS Dispels the misunderstanding that Spotify is - or at least primarily - about music. S\u00fcddeutsche Zeitung I loved the book and I highly recommend it.... Spotify is portrayed not as a company that was interested in saving the music industry but as one that was created by a couple of bored advertising bros.... Spotify Teardown shows a company much like all advertising-support music platforms, where the ultimate customer is Coca-Cola, not music fans nor artists. Penny Fractions Spotify Teardown: Inside the Black Box of Streaming Music is an ambitious, wide-ranging, and mis-titled book. Studying firms like Spotify is notoriously challenging....The result is a methodological commitment to exteriority, which pays off in the form of delightfully inventive methods that reimagine the nature of the thing we call Spotify. Thus, if I suggest that this book should be subtitled Outside the Black Box, it is no insult: its greatest contribution may be demonstrating how important the outside is both to Spotify's functioning and to what we understand it to be. Information & Culture: A Journal of History Highly readable.... The rigor and curiosity with which they treat their subject are necessary: Spotify has completely transformed the music industry, and to truly understand how and why requires illuminating each nebulous part of the company. The Nation The book is not so much a nuts-and-bolts analysis of how Spotify works so much as a critical account of why it works the way it does today. Spotify Teardown is a book very much of this moment. As well as considering the streaming platform's 'front end' through consulting news coverage, company blogs, financial results, interface analysis and more, it also uses numerous experimental methodologies n an attempt to get at Spotify's mysterious 'back end', and its particular algorithm enabled wrangling of the digital music commodity. Convergence Spotify Teardown is a rhyme and reason for all platforms mediating our musical consumption. There's a hint of quasi-fascist gatekeeping: you wouldn't need to type in 'Latin' in South America, because that's all you'll be offered, and their policy of cis good life imagery, of 'chrono normative' lifestyles of getting out of bed, going to work, to the gym normalises how we chill into categories we can imitate.

With these cryptic words, a shocking secret passed down from president to president comes to rest in the hands of Abraham Lincoln. And as the first bloody clashes of the Civil War unfold, Lincoln alone must decide how best to use this volatile knowledge: save thousands of American lives, or keep the young nation from being torn apart forever? The present: In Utah, the fabled remains of Mormon pioneers whose nineteenth-century expedition across the desert met with a murderous end have been uncovered. In Washington, D.C., the official investigation of an international entrepreneur, an elder in the Mormon church, has sparked a political battle between the White House and a powerful United States senator. In Denmark, a Justice Department agent, missing in action, has fallen into the hands of a dangerous zealot?a man driven by divine visions to make a prophet?s words reality. And in a matter of a few short hours, Cotton Malone has gone from quietly selling books at his shop in Denmark to dodging bullets in a high-speed boat chase. All it takes is a phone call from his former boss in Washington, and suddenly the ex-agent is racing to rescue an informant carrying critical intelligence. It?s just the kind of perilous business that Malone has been trying to leave behind, ever since he retired from the Justice Department. But once he draws enemy blood, Malone is plunged into a deadly conflict?a constitutional war secretly set in motion more than two hundred years ago by America?s Founding Fathers. From the streets of Copenhagen to the catacombs of Salzburg to the rugged mountains of Utah, the grim specter of the Civil War looms as a dangerous conspiracy gathers power. Malone risks life, liberty, and his greatest love in a race for the truth about Abraham Lincoln?while the fate of the United States of America hangs in the balance.

Of the millions of men, women, and children transported from Africa to America as slaves, Cudjo was then the only person alive to tell the story of this integral part of the nation's history. Hurston was there to record Cudjo's firsthand account of the raid that led to his capture and bondage fifty years after the Atlantic slave trade was outlawed in the United States.In 1931, Hurston returned to Plateau, the African-centric community three miles from Mobile founded by Cudjo and other former slaves from his ship. Spending more than three months there, she talked in depth with Cudjo about the details of his life. During those weeks, the young writer and the elderly formerly enslaved man ate peaches and watermelon that grew in the backyard and talked about Cudjo's past-memories from his childhood in Africa, the horrors of being captured and held in a barracoon for selection by American slavers, the harrowing experience of the Middle Passage packed with more than 100 other souls aboard the Clotilda, and the years he spent in slavery until the end of the Civil War.Based on those interviews, featuring Cudjo's unique vernacular, and written from Hurston's perspective with the compassion and singular style that have made her one of the preeminent American authors of the twentieth-century, Barracoon masterfully illustrates the tragedy of slavery and of one life forever defined by it. Offering insight into the pernicious legacy that continues to haunt us all, black and white, this poignant and powerful work is an invaluable contribution to our shared history and culture.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9780062748201,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":30.89999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":5502176,"merchants":["euniverse","weltbild"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"barracoon-1","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/barracoon-1\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BLOOMBERG AND LIBRARY JOURNAL Where does great culture come from? How do you build and sustain it in your group, or strengthen a culture that needs fixing? In The Culture Code, Daniel Coyle goes inside some of the world’s most successful organizations—including the U.S. Navy’s SEAL Team Six, IDEO, and the San Antonio Spurs—and reveals what makes them tick. He demystifies the culture-building process by identifying three key skills that generate cohesion and cooperation, and explains how diverse groups learn to function with a single mind. Drawing on examples that range from Internet retailer Zappos to the comedy troupe Upright Citizens Brigade to a daring gang of jewel thieves, Coyle offers specific strategies that trigger learning, spark collaboration, build trust, and drive positive change. Coyle unearths helpful stories of failure that illustrate what not to do, troubleshoots common pitfalls, and shares advice about reforming a toxic culture. Combining leading-edge science, on-the-ground insights from world-class leaders, and practical ideas for action, The Culture Code offers a roadmap for creating an environment where innovation flourishes, problems get solved, and expectations are exceeded. Culture is not something you are—it’s something you do. The Culture Code puts the power in your hands. No matter the size of your group or your goal, this book can teach you the principles of cultural chemistry that transform individuals into teams that can accomplish amazing things together. Praise for The Culture Code “I’ve been waiting years for someone to write this book—I’ve built it up in my mind into something extraordinary. But it is even better than I imagined. Daniel Coyle has produced a truly brilliant, mesmerizing read that demystifies the magic of great groups. It blows all other books on culture right out of the water.” —Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Option B, Originals, and Give and Take “If you want to understand how successful groups work—the signals they transmit, the language they speak, the cues that foster creativity—you won’t find a more essential guide than The Culture Code.” —Charles Duhigg, New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better","merchants_number":2,"ean":9781524797096,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":23.89999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":5494904,"merchants":["euniverse","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"the-culture-code","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/the-culture-code\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}

Erkennen Sie sich in dieser Aussage wieder? Monica Schori versteht diese Haltung absolut. Aggressive Kunden abfangen kann sie trotzdem nicht. Aber einfangen. Ihr Buch '\u00dcberleben im Kundenkontakt' ist daf\u00fcr ideal. Weil Schori hilft, die eigene Einstellung zu den 'Motzkis' auf der anderen Seite der Ladentheke oder der Telefonleitung zu korrigieren, die selbst auferlegten Perfektionsanspr\u00fcche zu beerdigen und im Bedarfsfall auch mit einem klugen oder witzigen Spruch zu kontern.'Der Kunde ist K\u00f6nig, aber die Monarchie ist auch nicht mehr, was sie einmal war'Schori schl\u00e4gt mit ihrem praxisnahen Ratgeber die Br\u00fccke zwischen frustrierten Verk\u00e4ufern und sogenannten 'schwierigen' Kunden, indem sie die negativen Erfahrungen in ein gesundes Verh\u00e4ltnis zum Gesamtsaldo setzt: 'Die Welt ist voller freundlicher dankbarer, sympathischer, verst\u00e4ndnis- und humorvoller Kundinnen und Kunden, die ihre Zufriedenheit auch zeigen'. Die positiven Erfahrungen werden nur zu schnell ausgeblendet. 'Ein einziger unerfreulicher Kundenkontakt kostet uns h\u00e4ufig mehr Energie als der ganze \u00fcbrige Arbeitsalltag' konstatiert die Autorin zu recht.Wenn Ihre Kunden vor Wut f\u00f6rmlich explodieren, bleibt Ihr Puls ganz untenDen \u00c4rger des Kunden nicht zum eigenen Problem machen, das ist die L\u00f6sung. Klingt abstrakt, aber Schori wird in ihrem Buch ganz konkret. Wenn Ihr Anrufer beispielsweise in den H\u00f6rer br\u00fcllt 'Ihr Laden ist totale Schei\u00dfe!!' k\u00f6nnen Sie nat\u00fcrlich ebenfalls an die Decke gehen. Besser aber ist, dass Sie den Wutausbruch ganz n\u00fcchtern \u00fcbersetzen 'Der hat nicht nur eine schlechte Erfahrung gemacht - nicht mir mit, sondern mit dem Unternehmen oder sogar der ganzen Branche' und sich emotional distanzieren 'Der hat seine Gef\u00fchle nicht im Griff - ich schon.' Die Belohnung f\u00fcr diese Zwischenschritte: Sie gewinnen sofort die Kontrolle \u00fcber die Situation zur\u00fcck.Die passenden Antworten f\u00fcr patzige KundenUnd damit das aus dem Stegreif gelingt, legen Sie sich k\u00fcnftig die passende Antwort auf pers\u00f6nliche Attacken einfach auf dem Schreibtisch zurecht. Autorin Schori hat sich die M\u00fche gemacht, die h\u00e4ufigsten Vorw\u00fcrfe und Beleidigungen entt\u00e4uschter Kunden mit den passenden Antworten zu kontern. Vielleicht waren Sie nach einer Hasstirade auch schon mal sprachlos: Passiert Ihnen nicht mehr. Mit der Antwort: 'Habe ich oder haben wir Ihnen etwas getan oder gesagt, das Sie so ver\u00e4rgert hat? Wenn ja, m\u00f6chte ich mich daf\u00fcr entschuldigen.' Landen Sie einen Wirkungstreffer.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9780525510307,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":13.449999999999999289457264239899814128875732421875,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":4889351,"merchants":["dodax","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"between-the-world-and-me-3","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/between-the-world-and-me-3\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

Nicht zuletzt die Wertsch\u00e4tzung des eigenen Lebensumfelds lassen alle Anstrengungen mehr als lohnenswert erscheinen, sich das notwendige Wissen f\u00fcr eine vor-Ort-Ern\u00e4hrung anzueignen. Die Grenze eines solchen Konzepts liegt nicht nur in den Mitteleuropa klimatisch charakterisierenden jahreszeitlichen Beschr\u00e4nkungen. Faszinierende Gew\u00fcrze, Pflanzen und Fr\u00fcchte kamen \u00fcber Jahrhunderte aus anderen Erd- teilen zu uns. Zahllose Produkte haben wir ? h\u00e4ufig \u00fcber skurrile Missverst\u00e4ndnisse und abstruse Wirrungen erst Jahrzehnte, wenn nicht Jahrhunderte nach ihrem erstmaligen Import erfolgreich in unsere Esskultur integriert. Heute scheinen sie uns selbstverst\u00e4ndlich wie die heimischen Fr\u00fcchte und Pflanzen, als w\u00e4ren sie schon immer Teil einer als urspr\u00fcnglich empfundenen Lebenswelt. Doch was heisst: schon immer? Das Tr\u00fcgerische einer solchen Vorstellung wird offensichtlich in einer Episode aus der eigenen Familienerz\u00e4hlung: Mein Grossvater m\u00fctterlicherseits sah (noch vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg) auf dem R\u00fcckweg von seiner Lehrstelle in der Auslage eines Obsth\u00e4ndlers wunderbare, einmalig leuchtendrote, perfekt auf Hochglanz polierte \u00c4pfel. Er widerstand der Verlockung nicht. Trotz schmaler B\u00f6rse erwarb er eine jener unwirklich perfekten Fr\u00fcchte. Seine grenzenlose, wortw\u00f6rtliche Entt\u00e4uschung im Moment des Genusses ist verst\u00e4ndlich und nachvollziehbar, biss er doch voller Wonne nicht in einen knackigen Apfel, sondern ? in eine Tomate. Die Perspektive liesse sich auch in das Ursprungsland einer auf der ganzen Welt ausserordentlich beliebten Frucht wenden: Ein Olmeke oder Maya w\u00e4re wohl ebenso, wenn auch vermutlich nicht negativ, verwundert, w\u00fcrde ihm jetzt (oder auch vor einhundert Jahren schon) ein St\u00fcck Schokolade angeboten. Es langsam im Munde schmelzen zu lassen, wie es Schokoladenkultur-Ge\u00fcbten heute selbstverst\u00e4ndlich ist, k\u00e4me ihm kaum in den Sinn. Er nahm die Fr\u00fcchte des Kakaobaumes ausschliesslich, um sie zu Getr\u00e4nken zu verarbeiten. Aus der ess- und genusskulturellen Weltgeschichte liessen sich ? durchaus unterhaltsam ? aberhunderte Beispiele anf\u00fchren. Besonders ergiebig ist besagter Kakao: Zu den etablierten, auch qualitativ herausragenden Grossherstellern dr\u00e4ngen in den letzten Jahren eine Vielzahl kleiner und kleinster Hersteller auf den Markt. Das mit ihnen sich differenzierende, weite Spektrum spiegelt nahezu alle Facetten der aktuellen Esskultur. W\u00e4hrend die P\u00e2tissiers und Chocolatiers sich meist auf die technischen Qualit\u00e4ten und geschmacklichen Vorz\u00fcge von Kuvert\u00fcren fokussieren, haben Bean-to-Bar-Erzeuger tiefer greifende Ans\u00e4tze, heruntergebrochen \u00fcber L\u00e4nder und Sorten \u00fcber Regionen bis in die einzelne Kakao-Lage. Einige beziehen neben dem \u00f6kologisch \u00fcberlegten Anbau auch die sozialen Bedingungen der Bauern und Sammler vor Ort aktiv in ihr Schokoladen-Konzept mit ein. Selbst Vertreter der Raw-Bewegung finden ihre Nische. Das Journal Culinaire hat das ehrgeizige Ziel, seine Themen umfassend und perspektivenreich zu pr\u00e4sentieren. Wie so oft, gibt es nat\u00fcrlich immer noch mehr zu sagen und zu erfahren. Aber dieses Mal sind f\u00fcr den Rundumblick in der Welt des Kakaos unsere 156 Seiten einfach zu knapp. Deshalb wird die kommende Ausgabe den Titel tragen: Noch einmal Kakao.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9783941121232,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":27.849999999999997868371792719699442386627197265625,"low_price_merchant_id":27291482,"ID":4851768,"merchants":["weltbild","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"kakao-schokolade-kuverture","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/kakao-schokolade-kuverture\/","low_price_merchant_name":"Weltbild"}

We rely on to-do lists, calendar reminders, noise-blocking headphones, and sometimes medication to help us concentrate-even though these tactics often fail to substantially improve productivity. Drawing on the latest brain research, compelling stories from his psychological practice, and colorful examples of counterintuitive success from sports, business, education, and the arts, neuroscientist Srini Pillay, M.D., challenges traditional ideas about productivity, revealing the lasting, positive benefits of adding deliberate and regular unfocus to your repertoire. A fascinating tour through brain wavelengths and rhythm, mindsets, and mental relaxation, Tinker Dabble Doodle Try demonstrates how specific kinds of planned unfocus stimulate cognitive calmness, jumpstart productivity, enhance innovation, inspire creativity, improve long-term memory, and, of course, help you stay on target. Tinkering with ideas and with things releases your mind to wander from a state of stuckness into a possibility frame of mind, triggering neural connections and new insights. Dabbling in a new endeavor-whether a hobby or fantasy-disrupts your habitual and reactive thinking, helping you find new solutions to old problems. Doodling can help you tap into another brain frequency to remove obstacles and create opportunities and inspiration. With techniques for training the brain to unfocus, concepts for scheduling busy lives, and ideas for controlling this new cognitive-toggling capability, Tinker Dabble Doodle Try will change how you think about daydreaming, relaxing, leaving work unfinished, and even multitasking. What you'll discover is a greater freedom, a deeper intelligence, and a more profound joy in your life.Praise for Tinker Dabble Doodle Try\"Pillay's effortless writing style, combined with an excellent balance of popular psychology and self-help, makes this a helpful read for those who enjoy a light dive into psychology with practical applications.\"-Library Journal\"Pillay cites an intriguing range of brain studies to support his argument, and his case studies of individuals with whom he has worked provide useful insights.\"-Kirkus Reviews \"Dr. Srini Pillay offers a brilliant, deeply researched, and even more deeply imagined blueprint for using one's full mental armamentarium, conscious, unconscious, and all the undiscovered rest!

Mankind is reengineering the planet, investing up to ten trillion dollars per year in transportation, energy, and communications infrastructure linking the world's burgeoning megacities together. This has profound consequences for geopolitics, economics, demographics, the environment, and social identity. Connectivity, not geography, is our destiny. In Connectography, visionary strategist Parag Khanna travels from Ukraine to Iran, Mongolia to North Korea, Pakistan to Nigeria, and across the Arctic Circle and the South China Sea to explain the rapid and unprecedented changes affecting every part of the planet. He shows how militaries are deployed to protect supply chains as much as borders, and how nations are less at war over territory than engaged in tugs-of-war over pipelines, railways, shipping lanes, and Internet cables. The new arms race is to connect to the most markets-a race China is now winning, having launched a wave of infrastructure investments to unite Eurasia around its new Silk Roads. The United States can only regain ground by fusing with its neighbors into a super-continental North American Union of shared resources and prosperity. Connectography offers a unique and hopeful vision for the future. Khanna argues that new energy discoveries and technologies have eliminated the need for resource wars, ambitious transport corridors and power grids are unscrambling Africa's fraught colonial borders, even the Arab world is evolving a more peaceful map as it builds resource and trade routes across its war-torn landscape. At the same time, thriving hubs such as Singapore and Dubai are injecting dynamism into young and heavily populated regions, cyber-communities empower commerce across vast distances, and the world's ballooning financial assets are being wisely invested into building an inclusive global society. Beneath the chaos of a world that appears to be falling apart is a new foundation of connectivity pulling it together.Praise for Connectography\"Incredible . . . With the world rapidly changing and urbanizing, [Khanna's] proposals might be the best way to confront a radically different future.\"-The Washington Post\"Clear and coherent . . . a well-researched account of how companies are weaving ever more complicated supply chains that pull the world together even as they squeeze out inefficiencies. . . . [He] has succeeded in demonstrating that the forces of globalization are winning.\"-Adrian Woolridge, The Wall Street Journal \"Bold . . . With an eye for vivid details, Khanna has . . . produced an engaging geopolitical travelogue.\"-Foreign Affairs\"For those who fear that the world is becoming too inward-looking, Connectography is a refreshing, optimistic vision.\"-The Economist\"Connectivity has become a basic human right, and gives everyone on the planet the opportunity to provide for their family and contribute to our shared future.

Pickover auf seiner Reise zu den 250 gr\u00f6ssten Errungenschaften der Physik, der grundlegenden Wissenschaft schlechthin, die das eigentliche Gewebe unserer Wirklichkeit erforscht. Der Bogen spannt sich von merkw\u00fcrdigen und verbl\u00fcffenden Erfindungen wie dem „Trinkvogel“ aus dem Jahr 1945 \u00fcber die grossen Meilensteine der Ingenieurswissenschaften, der angewandten Physik und der Astrophysik bis hin zu philosophischen Themen wie der „Nebularhypothese“ am Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts. Das Buch setzt 13,7 Milliarden Jahre vor unserer Zeitrechnung mit dem Big Bang ein und endet mehr als 100 Billionen Jahre in der Zukunft mit der „Quantenauferstehung“. Innerhalb dieser gewaltigen Zeitspanne stellt Pickover interessante wie abwechslungsreiche Themen vor, von Dunkler Energie und Paralleluniversen \u00fcber den Dopplereffekt und Maxwells D\u00e4mon bis hin zu den Ringen des Saturn. Ber\u00fchmte Formeln und bahnbrechende physikalische Konzepte werden erg\u00e4nzt durch praktische Anwendungsbeispiele und biografische Details weltber\u00fchmter und genialer Forscherpers\u00f6nlichkeiten wie Isaac Newton, James Clerk Maxwell, Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, Richard Feynman und Stephen Hawking. Die kurzen Eintr\u00e4ge, die jeweils nur einige Minuten Lekt\u00fcre beanspruchen, werden in chronologischer Reihenfolge und mit einer zum jeweiligen Thema passenden Abbildung pr\u00e4sentiert. „F\u00fcr mich“, stellt Pickover fest, „kultiviert die Physik die fortw\u00e4hrende Frage hinsichtlich der Grenzen des Denkens, der Abl\u00e4ufe im Universum und unseres Platzes in der ungeheuer weitl\u00e4ufigen Landschaft der Raumzeit, die wir alle Heimat nennen.“ „Das Physikbuch bietet eine abwechslungsreiche, rasante Exkursion durch die Geschichte der Entdeckungen in der Physik, beginnend mit bahnbrechenden Werkzeugen aus der Fr\u00fchzeit und endend mit weitreichenden astronomischen Spekulationen \u00fcber die letzten Momente des Universums. Pickovers fesselnde Darstellungen, die mit zahllosen Abbildungen illustriert werden, zollen der Kraft des menschlichen Verstandes, die Geheimnisse der Natur zu enth\u00fcllen, tiefen Respekt. Diese faszinierende Chronologie \u00fcber Alles - von h\u00fcpfender Knetmasse bis hin zur Stringtheorie ist ein wahres Paradies wissenschaftlicher Gen\u00fcsse.“ — Paul Halpern „Pickover beschreibt Welten, die weit \u00fcber die Wirklichkeit hinausgehen, die wir kennen.“ — The New York Times „Clifford Pickover geh\u00f6rt zu den kreativsten und originellsten Denkern unserer Zeit.“ — Journal of Recreational Mathematics „Ich kann mir niemanden vorstellen, dessen Kenntnisse nach der Lekt\u00fcre von Pickovers B\u00fcchern nicht erweitert sind.“ — Arthur C.

It makes for a novel that's always charming, always fast-paced, but which is sneakily and uncomfortably ambivalent about the things it celebrates. It gallops to a startling and great ending (I read it all in one sitting) and lingers afterwards. Cory Doctorow,\u00a0BoingBoing [An Absolutely Remarkable Thing] is perhaps as honest a look as we will ever get into the phenomenon of cyberfame, and Green balances this careful introspection with a plotline that is both fun and mysterious, puzzling and compelling Green quickly proves himself adept not only at playing into our 2018 anxiety and love\/hate relationship with social media, but also at driving suspense, world-building and a true love for science fiction. \u00a0 Bookreporter With this comic story about the ugly side of Internet fame, Green gives his brother...a run for his money. People [Green] applies wit, affection, and cultural intelligence to a comic sci-fi novel....A fun, contemporary adventure that cares about who we are as humans, especially when faced with remarkable events. Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Led by an earnestly flawed, bisexual heroine with direction and commitment issues, coupled with an abundant generosity of spirit, this read is timely and sorely needed. Highly recommended. Library Journal (starred review), Fall 2018 Best Debut Novels Green makes an entertaining book debut in this fast-paced, witty first contact novel At once funny, exciting, and a tad terrifying, this exploration of aliens and social media culture is bound to have wide appeal to readers interested in either theme.

San Francisco Chronicle It s not in the nature of a sci-fi comedy blockbuster to shift boulders in your soul. But with his debut novel, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing, Hank Green pulls it off....There are still a few exceptionally remarkable things that rise above the rest of their absolutely remarkable peers.

What feels like all of it. It doesn t hurt that he also happens to be very funny. \u00a0 Boston Globe \"Because of the power of his prose and his reasoning, Cooked may prove to be just as influential as Pollan s seminal book, The Omnivore s Dilemma . . . The results are fascinating, but the magic of Cooked lies not in its ability to unlock the secrets of slow-roasting a whole hog or brewing beer . . . No, what Pollan pulls off is even more impressive: He manages to illuminate the wealth of connections that stem from our DIY time in the kitchen. \u00a0 The Washington Post \"As in The Omnivore s Dilemma, Pollan is never less than delightful, full of curiosity, insight, and good humor. This is a book to be read, savored, and smudged with spatterings of olive oil, wine, butter, and the sulfuric streaks of chopped onion.\"\u00a0 Outside The book's surplus of fascinating tidbits about everything from barbecue (which Pollan connects to ritual animal sacrifice) to the mysterious workings of bread yeast makes it a feast for intellectual omnivores. \u00a0 Entertainment Weekly Through cooking, Pollan argues, we clear a space, allowing ourselves not only to consider our sometimes troubled bond with nature but to reestablish our ties to one another, and to become makers instead of consumers. Cooked is a potently seductive invitation to discover or rediscover our most primal connection to the natural world. Bookforum \"Spurred by a number of objectives improving his family s general health, connecting with his teenage son, and learning how people can reduce their dependence on corporations, among others Pollan (The Omnivore s Dilemma, In Defense of Food) came to the realization that he d be able to accomplish all those goals and more if he spent more time in his kitchen. He began cooking. Divided into four chapters based on the four elements, Pollan eloquently explains how grilling with fire, braising (water), baking bread (air), and fermented foods (earth) have impacted our health and culture. . . .\u00a0Engaging and enlightening reading.\"\u00a0 Publishers Weekly (starred review)New York Times best-selling author Pollan (The Botany of Desire, The Omnivore s Dilemma) delivers a thoughtful meditation on cooking that is both difficult to categorize and uniquely, inimitably his . . . Intensely focused yet wide ranging, beautifully written, thought provoking, and, yes, fun, Pollan s latest is not to be missed by those interested in how, why, or what we cook and eat.\" Library Journal (starred review) \"Having described what's wrong with American food in his best-selling The Omnivore's Dilemma (2006), New York Times contributor Pollan delivers a more optimistic but equally fascinating account of how to do it right. . . . A delightful chronicle of the education of a cook who steps back frequently to extol the scientific and philosophical basis of this deeply satisfying human activity.\"\u00a0 Kirkus (starred review) \"Pollan s newest treatise on how food reaches the world s tables delves into the history of how humankind turns raw ingredients into palatable and nutritious food.

Bacevich, with a new afterword by the author From the end of World War II until 1980, virtually no American soldiers were killed in action while serving in the Greater Middle East. Since 1990, virtually no American soldiers have been killed in action anywhere else. What caused this shift? Andrew J. Bacevich, one of the country's most respected voices on foreign affairs, offers an incisive critical history of this ongoing military enterprise-now more than thirty years old and with no end in sight. During the 1980s, Bacevich argues, a great transition occurred. As the Cold War wound down, the United States initiated a new conflict-a War for the Greater Middle East-that continues to the present day. The long twilight struggle with the Soviet Union had involved only occasional and sporadic fighting. But as this new war unfolded, hostilities became persistent. From the Balkans and East Africa to the Persian Gulf and Central Asia, U.S. forces embarked upon a seemingly endless series of campaigns across the Islamic world. Few achieved anything remotely like conclusive success. Instead, actions undertaken with expectations of promoting peace and stability produced just the opposite. As a consequence, phrases like \"permanent war\" and \"open-ended war\" have become part of everyday discourse. Connecting the dots in a way no other historian has done before, Bacevich weaves a compelling narrative out of episodes as varied as the Beirut bombing of 1983, the Mogadishu firefight of 1993, the invasion of Iraq in 2003, and the rise of ISIS in the present decade. Understanding what America's costly military exertions have wrought requires seeing these seemingly discrete events as parts of a single war. It also requires identifying the errors of judgment made by political leaders in both parties and by senior military officers who share responsibility for what has become a monumental march to folly. This Bacevich unflinchingly does. A twenty-year army veteran who served in Vietnam, Andrew J. Bacevich brings the full weight of his expertise to this vitally important subject. America's War for the Greater Middle East is a bracing after-action report from the front lines of history. It will fundamentally change the way we view America's engagement in the world's most volatile region. Praise for America's War for the Greater Middle East\"Bacevich is thought-provoking, profane and fearless. . . . [His] call for Americans to rethink their nation's militarized approach to the Middle East is incisive, urgent and essential.\"-The New York Times Book Review \"Bacevich's magnum opus . . . a deft and rhythmic polemic aimed at America's failures in the Middle East from the end of Jimmy Carter's presidency to the present.\"-Robert D. Kaplan, The Wall Street Journal\"A critical review of American policy and military involvement . . .

[His] iron-jaw narrative is studded with practical advice on what to do when the zombies come, as they surely will. A literate, ironic, strangely tasty treat. Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Max Brooks has charted the folly of a disaster response based solely on advanced technologies and brute force in this step-by-step guide to what happened in the Zombie War. He details with extraordinary insight how in the face of institutional missteps and greed, people in unexpected ways achieve unique, creative, and effective strategies to survive and fight back. Brooks s account of the path to recovery and reconstruction after the war is fascinating, too. World War Z provides us with a starting point, at least, a basic blueprint from which to build a popular understanding of how, when, and why such a disaster came to be, and how small groups and individuals survived. Jeb Weisman, Ph.D.,Director of Strategic Technologies, National Center for Disaster Preparedness Possesses more creativity and zip than entire crates of other new fiction titles. Think Mad Max meets The Hot Zone . . . It s Apocalypse Now, pandemic-style. Creepy but fascinating. - USA TODAY Prepare to be entranced by this addictively readable oral history of the great war between humans and zombies. . . . Will grab you as tightly as a dead man s fist. A. - Entertainment Weekly, EW Pick Probably the most topical and literate scare since Orson Welles' War of the Worlds radio broadcast. . . . This is action-packed social-political satire with a global view. - Dallas Morning News Brooks [is] America s most prominent maven on the living dead. . . . Chilling. . . . It is gripping reading and a scathing indictment of weak responses to crises real and over-hyped. - Hartford Courant A sober, frequently horrifying and even moving account. . . . Brooks has delivered a full-blown horror novel, laced with sharp social and political observations and loads of macabre, gruesome imagery. . . . The real horror of World War Z comes from the all-too-plausible responses of human beings and governments to the menace. - Fangoria A horror fan s version of Studs Terkel s The Good War. . . . Like George Romero s Dead trilogy, World War Z is another milestone in the zombie mythology. - Booklist Brooks commits to detail in a way that makes his nightmare world creepily plausible. . . . Far more affecting than anything involving zombies really has any right to be. . . . The book . . . opens in blood and guts, turns the world into an oversized version of hell, then ends with and affirmation of humanity s ability to survive the worst the world has to offer. It feels like the right book for the right times, and that s the eeriest detail of all. - A.V. Club, The Onion The best science fiction has traditionally been steeped in social commentary. World War Z continues that legacy. . . . We haven t been this excited about a book without pictures since well, since ever. - Metro Each story locks together perfectly to create a wonderful, giddy suspense. Brooks also has the political savvy to take advantage of any paranoia a modern reader might feel. . . . The perfect book for all us zombie junkies. - Paste This infectious and compelling book will have nervous readers watching the streets for zombies.

The New York Times ? The Washington Post ? The Boston Globe ? The Wall Street Journal ? NPR ? Financial Times ? Kirkus Reviews When the Swedish Academy awarded Svetlana Alexievich the Nobel Prize, it cited her for inventing \"a new kind of literary genre,\" describing her work as \"a history of emotions-a history of the soul.\" Alexievich's distinctive documentary style, combining extended individual monologues with a collage of voices, records the stories of ordinary women and men who are rarely given the opportunity to speak, whose experiences are often lost in the official histories of the nation. In Secondhand Time, Alexievich chronicles the demise of communism. Everyday Russian citizens recount the past thirty years, showing us what life was like during the fall of the Soviet Union and what it's like to live in the new Russia left in its wake. Through interviews spanning 1991 to 2012, Alexievich takes us behind the propaganda and contrived media accounts, giving us a panoramic portrait of contemporary Russia and Russians who still carry memories of oppression, terror, famine, massacres-but also of pride in their country, hope for the future, and a belief that everyone was working and fighting together to bring about a utopia. Here is an account of life in the aftermath of an idea so powerful it once dominated a third of the world. A magnificent tapestry of the sorrows and triumphs of the human spirit woven by a master, Secondhand Time tells the stories that together make up the true history of a nation. \"Through the voices of those who confided in her,\" The Nation writes, \"Alexievich tells us about human nature, about our dreams, our choices, about good and evil-in a word, about ourselves.\"","merchants_number":1,"ean":9788466341486,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":20.39999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":70254503,"ID":4395462,"merchants":["orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"ultimos-testigos-los-ninos-de-la-segunda-guerra-mundial-secondhand-time-the-last-of-the-soviets","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/ultimos-testigos-los-ninos-de-la-segunda-guerra-mundial-secondhand-time-the-last-of-the-soviets\/","low_price_merchant_name":"Orell F\u00fcssli"}
