Örökké, megszakítva
Megható új történet az Evelyn Hugo hét férje szerzőjétől!
Elsie Porter átlagos huszonéves fiatal, ám ami vele történik, az minden, csak nem átlagos. Egy esős újév napján elindul otthonról az egy főre rendelt pizzájáért. Nem számít arra, hogy rajta kívül más is lesz a pizzériában, különösen nem az imádni való és sármos Ben Ross.
A kémia kettejük közt azonnali és mindent elsöprő. Ben még huszonnégy órát sem tud várni, máris újra találkozni szeretne vele. Heteken belül mindketten fülig szerelmesek lesznek. Májusban megszöknek, és titokban összeházasodnak. Mindössze kilenc nappal később Bent biciklizés közben elüti egy teherautó, és azonnal életét veszti. Elsie a lakásból hallja a szirénákat, ám mire leér,
Bent már elszállította a mentő. A kórházban szembe kell néznie sosem látott anyósával, Susannel - aki még csak nem is sejti, hogy kicsoda Elsie.
Elsie és Ben elragadó szerelmi történetének, valamint Elsie és Susan gyászfeldolgozásának összefonásával az Örökké, megszakítva című regény arra emlékeztet, hogy egy történet nem csak egyféleképpen érhet boldog véget...

Dubaj gésái 2. - Manila pillangói
Mi marad a szerelemből, ha az igazság keresése mindent felülír?
Hónapok teltek el azóta, hogy Szofi Mauer megoldott egy gyilkossági ügyet. Azóta egyenesbe jött az élete, légiutas-kísérőként szeli az eget, és végre újra boldog Hafizzal.
Egy titokzatos videó azonban felforgatja biztosnak hitt életét. Egy helyi, gazdag üzletember lánya arra kéri, hogy nyomozzon a nővére gyilkosa után. Csakhamar kiderül, hogy az új ügy ördögibb és kuszább szövedék, mint amit Szofi egyedül ki tudna bogozni. Miközben a barátaival a megoldást kutatják, Szofi és Hafiz kapcsolata hullámvölgybe kerül.
Választania kell: repedező párkapcsolatát hozza helyre, vagy elmerül Manila sötét titkaiban, hogy végre elkapja a pillangóként tovaröppenő gyilkost.
Fülledt és komor világ ez. A város szűk, vibráló utcái, a felhőkarcolók árnyékában megbúvó titkos szobák egy olyan igazság felé terelik Szofit, amiért talán túl nagy árat kell fizetnie…

Nagycsoportos vagyok - Iskolás leszek: Olvasást előkészítő munkafüzet - Iskola-előkészítés szeptembertől májusig - 0. osztály
Az olvasás elsajátítása sok apró lépésből áll, és ezek közül jó néhányat már óvodáskorban is kipróbálhat a gyermek.
A hangzók azonosságának felismerése, a hangok összekapcsolása, a szótagolás vagy a rövid és hosszú magánhangzók megkülönböztetése mind olyan készségek, amelyek megkönnyítik az első osztályban az olvasástanulást.
Ez a kiadvány nem olvasni tanítja az óvodást, hanem célirányos feladatokon keresztül bevezeti őt a hangok és betűk világába, megmutatva a köztük lévő összefüggéseket.
A betűkereső feladványok a betűkép azonosítását készítik elő. A kedves történetek abban segítenek, hogy a gyermek a hallott szövegből ki tudja szűrni a lényeget. Ez azért fontos, mert ez az értő olvasás alapja.
A füzet célja az, hogy játékos feladatok formájában megkezdje az olvasás előkészítését, és magabiztos alapot adjon az iskolakezdéshez.
The Hebrew Bible as Literature
The Hebrew Bible, or Christian Old Testament, contains some of the finest literature that we have. This biblical literature has a place not only in the synagogue or the church but also among the classics of world literature. The stories of Jacob and David, for instance, present the earliest surviving examples of literary characters whose development the reader follows over the length of a lifetime. Elsewhere, as in the books of Esther or Ruth, readers find a snapshot of a particular, fraught moment that will define the character. The Hebrew Bible also provides quite a few high points of lyric poetry, from the praise and lament of the Psalms to the double entendres in the love of poetry of the Song of Songs. In short, the Bible can be celebrated not only as religious literature but, quite simply, as literature. This book offers a thorough and lively introduction to the Bible''s two primary literary modes, narrative and poetry, foregrounding the nuances of plot, character, metaphor, structure and design, and intertextual allusions. Tod Linafelt thus gives readers the tools to fully experience and appreciate the Hebrew Bible''s literary achievement.

Cold War Puerto Rico
A gripping history of FBI surveillance, political repression, and the fight for Puerto Rican independence In the 1940s, with the construction of a naval base and a bombing range, Puerto Rico became a major geo-political military outpost for the United States. For a power claiming global leadership in a decolonizing world, however, the archipelago’s colonial condition underscored the dissonance between American democratic rhetoric and its imperial reality. The solution was a deal that, in 1952, gave Puerto Rico a degree of self-government without changing its legal status as an “unincorporated” US territory. The US then publicly claimed Puerto Rico was now more autonomous while using repressive tactics such as FBI surveillance, arrests, destabilization, and other methods developed in Washington to silence activists and political parties pushing for full independence. In Cold War Puerto Rico, Steve Howell examines how J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI targeted Puerto Rican communists as part of an offensive against pro-independence parties and activists generally. Howell’s US-born father, who fell afoul of Hoover for producing radical cartoons while working in San Juan in the 1940s, remained on the FBI’s watch list long after exiling himself in Britain. His close friends, the Puerto Rican author Cesar Andreu Iglesias and Jane Speed de Andreu, were meanwhile arrested and imprisoned three times during the 1950s. Drawing on a wealth of new sources, including interviews and FBI files, Howell tells their stories along with those of other activists who battled indictment in 1954 under the Smith Act, challenged the jurisdiction of the House Un-American Activities Committee in San Juan in 1959, and revived the Puerto Rican independence movement in the 1960s, despite the FBI deploying the covert tactics of COINTELPRO against them. Puerto Rico is virtually invisible in histories of what is generally called McCarthyism, yet anti-communist repression was in many ways more intense there than in the mainland US. Now, with Puerto Rico’s future currently hanging in the balance, Howell’s compelling history demonstrates why we need to understand the long enforcement of its colonial status.
Mao
Mao Zedong lived one of the most epic and influential lives of the twentieth century. His impact on the People’s Republic of China was vast. Half a century after his passing, he remains a divisive and controversial figure. This book provides an accessible narrative of Mao's life, from the fall of the Qing dynasty in the early part of the twentieth century to the long years in which he struggled not only to ensure the Communist Party of China survived but that it then came to power after a civil war with the nationalists. Mao's tragic failures as ruler were some of the worst to ever befall a modern society, while his personal life remains a source of intense interest. Clear-eyed and non-partisan, this is the first accessible biography of Mao to appear in English for some time.
Presidential Elections and the Electoral College
Examines the presidential elections from 1832 to 2020 and reveals that the unequal representation of popular vote among states and wasted votes received by popular vote winners are major causes of the split between the popular vote result and Electoral College result. During the 2020 presidential election, it was possible, if unlikely, for a candidate to win the election by winning only 21 percent of the popular vote in the nation. Inversely, it was possible for a candidate to win 79 percent of popular vote and still lose the election. Examining presidential elections from 1832 to 2020, Manabu Saeki reveals that the unequal representation of popular vote among states and wasted votes received by popular vote winners are major causes of the split between the popular vote result and Electoral College result. An average voter in the most overrepresented state holds Electoral College votes that are approximately twice as many as those of the average voter nationwide and four times larger than those of the most underrepresented state. Republican candidates today tend to win a significantly larger number of overrepresented states, thereby winning a larger number of Electoral College votes relative to the number of popular votes they win. However, Republican candidates also suffer more wasted votes than Democratic candidates. Further, Saeki analyzes the vote decision by individual voters. Voters with strong racist and/or authoritarian inclinations tended to vote for a Republican candidate prior to, as well as after, the 2016 election. There is no indication that Donald Trump mobilized the voters with racist or authoritarian predispositions.
A digitális marketing vakfoltja - Avagy ezért hazudik a marketingmérésed
Volt egy korszak, amikor a marketing egyszerűnek tűnt.
Megnéztük az adatokat, optimalizáltunk, skáláztunk.
Azt hittük, mindent látunk. Ez a korszak véget ért.
A digitális térben ma már a döntések jelentős része láthatatlanul születik meg. A felhasználók nem kattintanak - mégis döntenek. A látogatói statisztikákban nem látni, milyen bonyolult útvonalon jut el döntésig a vevő. A legértékesebb ajánlások privát csatornákon terjednek - ahová az analitika már nem lát.
Ez a dark traffic világa.
Ez a szakkönyv lebontja a digitális marketing egyik legnagyobb illúzióját: hogy amit mérünk, az maga a valóság.
Megmutatja:
- miért torzulnak rendszerszinten az adatok
- hogyan alakul át a fogyasztói út a zero-click korszakában
- és hogyan hozhatsz jó döntéseket akkor is, ha nem látsz mindent
Hitchcock and Hospitality
Unfolds the central importance of broken hospitality in the director's work. Hitchcock and Hospitality argues that the violation of hospitality is a driving force behind Alfred Hitchcock's work. From his television hosting to his cameo appearances to the premises of his stories, the Master of Suspense stages a crisis of authority over access to physical and virtual space. Using the familiarity of his work to make a larger contribution to both film and critical theory, this book engages the French tradition of theorizing hospitality with a keen eye for its feminist implications. But the House of Hitchcock unsettles the scene of hospitality further, down to its hold on the organization of social space. Reading for hospitality not just in grand estates and humble cottages but in cars and trains, motels and apartments, and other mobile and transient spaces—including the virtual space of film itself—Hitchcock and Hospitality tracks the drama of modern social exchange and unfolds the central importance of broken hospitality in the director's work. Films considered intensively include the familiar (Rebecca, Rope, Vertigo, North by Northwest, The Birds, and Marnie) as well as those that have received less critical attention (Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Saboteur, Lifeboat, and Dial M for Murder). The book also touches on many other Hitchcock films and on key episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents.
The Last Sunday in May
She’s a single mom, a devoted daughter, and an Indy 500 hopeful daring to dream in an exhilarating and emotional novel about family, ambition, and second chances. Mack Williams was the next big thing in motorsports. Until her wild ways forced her to leave racing in her rearview mirror. Ten years later, she’s a single mom in rural Indiana, with a struggling family business and a dad who needs full-time care. The fastest woman on four wheels now drives car pool, her dreams turned to dust. But Mack’s childhood idol, Janet Joyner, still sees the spark. Famed for breaking gender barriers on the track, Janet gives Mack a last-ditch chance to qualify for the coveted Indy 500. Mack thought her days of impulsive choices were over, but she can’t say no, whatever the risks—moving in with her estranged sister, facing down her daughter’s absentee father, and working with Mack’s new teammate, Leo. He’s gorgeous, supportive, and every kind of distraction Mack can’t afford. Juggling her personal life with a professional dream close within reach, Mack won’t let a second chance slip away again. Win or lose, the stakes have never been higher.
When The Storm Passes
For a writer seeking sanctuary, a seductive island off the Galician Atlantic coast induces a primal fear in a prize-winning shocker by the international bestselling author of the Apocalypse Z series. In the summer, the Isle of Ons is a vacation paradise. But in the winter, when nature is unpredictable and supply boats are rare, Ons is far less inviting. Yet the offseason is perfect for Roberto Lobeira, who hopes to find peace and inspiration to write his new novel. Instead, the island’s few permanent residents give Roberto an unnerving and cautionary welcome. There are even warnings of chilling Galician folklore that keep him on edge—and on watch at night. Then when Roberto finds a mysterious bundle floating near the shore, the contents trigger in the residents old family feuds, scores to settle, and an unspeakable thirst for revenge. As a palpable sense of dread grows more threatening, a violent storm portends even worse to come. With all communication to the outside world shut down, Roberto must face not only the forces of nature but forces he has yet to comprehend on an island where people will do anything to survive.
Elfáradtunk - A párkapcsolati kiégéstől a visszatalálásig
Túlterhelt, ingerekkel és problémákkal elárasztott életünkben az egyik legalapvetőbb közös élmény a kimerültség. Sokan érezzük úgy, hogy elfáradtunk, és már nem elég pár nyugodt éjszaka vagy egy-két hét szabadság, hogy kipihenjük magunkat. Ez a fajta fáradtság ugyanis nem átmeneti jelenség, hanem egyre inkább napjaink alapállapota.
A kiégés fogalmát még ma is hajlamosak vagyunk a munka világához kötni, noha az azt kísérő kimerültség más életterületeken is könnyen megjelenhet. Ott is, ahol talán nem számítanánk rá: a legközelebbi kapcsolatainkban.
Szabó-Bartha Anett könyve ezt a sokak számára ismerős, mégis ritkán kimondott tapasztalatot járja körül: azt a szürke zónát, ahol a párkapcsolat még működik, de már egyre kevesebb benne a lendület és az öröm. Próbálunk helytállni, ám ezért egyre többet kell feladnunk magunkból. És bár szeretjük a másikat, mind gyakrabban érzünk megkönnyebbülést, ha egy estét nem kell vele tölteni.
A pszichológus-párterapeuta szerző feltérképezi, hogyan lesz a közelségből megszokás, a figyelemből feladat, az együttlétből logisztika - és végül teher. Azt a folyamatot követi végig, ahogyan két ember fokozatosan elveszíti azokat a belső erőforrásokat, amelyek élővé tesznek egy kapcsolatot. Hiszen ezt éppen azért olyan nehéz felismerni, mert nincs egyetlen pont, ahol elromlik. Ahogyan egyetlen mindent megmagyarázó ok sincs: a kiégésben éppúgy szerepet játszhatnak jelenlegi életformánk sajátosságai és a mindennapi túlterheltség, mint a sémáinkból fakadó működésmódjaink.
A könyvben bemutatott helyzetek zavarba ejtően ismerősek, a felismerés pedig meghökkentő lehet: az a fáradtság, amelyet eddig a külvilágnak tulajdonítottunk, talán már ott is jelen van, ahonnan a feltöltődést reméljük: a párkapcsolatunkban. Ám ha ezt idejében észrevesszük, az eltávolodás nem kell, hogy végleges legyen - van visszaút egymáshoz.
