Amnesia Remembered
Our modern culture is increasingly expressed in the form of digital artifacts, yet archaeology is in its infancy when it comes to researching and understanding them. The study and reverse engineering of digital artifacts is no longer the exclusive domain of computer scientists. Presented by way of analogy to the process of archaeological fieldwork familiar to readers, the 1986 Electronic Arts game Amnesia is used as a vehicle to explain the procedure and thought process required to reverse engineer a digital artifact. As a go-to reference to learn how to begin studying the digital, Amnesia is shown to be a multi-layered artifact with a complex backstory; through it, topics in data compression, copy protection, memory management, and programming languages are covered.

Finnegans Wake
'A great comic vision, one of the few books of the world that can make us laugh aloud on nearly every page' - Anthony Burgess
James Joyce's final work, Finnegans Wake, conjures up the dark underground worlds of sexuality and dream with supreme linguistic virtuosity. Here Joyce undermines traditional storytelling and the English language, and confronts the different kinds of betrayal - cultural, political and sexual - that he saw at the heart of Irish history. Dazzlingly inventive, with passages of great lyrical beauty and humour, Finnegans Wake remains one of the most remarkable works of the twentieth century.
'Here words are not the polite contortions of twentieth-century printer's ink. They are alive. They elbow their way on to the page, and glow and blaze and fade and disappear' Samuel Beckett
With a new introduction by Brian Fox.

Rasputin Swims the Potomac
IN A WORLD THAT'S LIKE OURS BUT EVEN STRANGER . . .
A TV star president is campaigning for a constitutionally dubious third term, normal Americans are falling into an unexplained weeping sickness and a wrestler claiming to be the reincarnated mystic Rasputin is making a spandex-clad entrance into politics.
Meanwhile Clarence Thomas Jr. is a journalist just trying to make sense of his country as it unmoors from reality. But with violence and bullshit erupting everywhere, things seem to be approaching collapse. Or maybe it's all building to a grand gesture: something political, romantic, religious, insane and quite possibly fatal.
From award-winning author Ben Fountain, Rasputin Swims the Potomac is outrageously funny, wildly imagined and razor-sharp satire. It asks: what could possibly grow out of what we have now, except for something even stranger, harder to grasp and more tumultuous? And will what comes next be better or, somehow, even worse?
Výchova v kocke
Kniha Výchova v kocke je sprievodcom svetom výchovy, ktorý rodičom pomáha pochopiť:
- prečo sú ich deti také, aké sú;
- čo im správanie detí odráža;
- prečo nestačí riešiť iba vonkajšie prejavy detského správania;
- ako dieťaťu skutočne pomôcť;
- že výchova je cestou sebapoznania a sebavýchovy rodiča;
- ako sa terapia dieťaťa prirodzene stáva terapiou aj pre rodiča;
- čo je prvou pomocou v náročných výchovných situáciách;
- ako pracovať s energiou emócií;
- prečo nadmerné emočné prejavy nepatria deťom a komu patria;
- kam sa obrátiť, ak má dieťa psychické alebo psychosomatické ťažkosti.
„Vyrastala som s poruchami učenia i pozornosti. Bola som citlivá, trémistka a v náročných situáciách som často neuspela. Preto veľmi dobre rozumiem, čo tieto ťažkosti v dieťati zanechávajú a koľko neistoty, únavy a pocitu zlyhania dokážu priniesť.
V dospelosti som navyše prešla vážnou chorobou, ktorej bežné vysvetlenia ma neuspokojili. Hľadala som hlbšie príčiny. Otázky o tom, prečo ochorejú aj malé deti, ma priviedli k presvedčeniu, že korene ťažkostí spočívajú v hlboko uložených a zabudnutých rodinných traumách.
Dnes verím, že žiadne ochorenie nevzniklo tu a teraz. Je to príbeh siahajúci doďaleka, ale nie neznámy – je uložený v rodovom archíve, preto s ním môžeme pracovať. Vďaka tomuto poznaniu postupne vznikala kniha Výchova v kocke, ktorá prináša nový pohľad na problémy detí a ich výchovu.“

Stockton-on-Tees: A Potted History
Stockton-on-Tees was a small port and market town in the north-east of England for much of its history. Shipbuilding and other industries gradually established themselves over the years, but it was with the Industrial Revolution that the town received a massive boost. The opening of the pioneering Stockton & Darlington Railway enabled coal to be transported to the port. Industries developed around the discovery of iron ore locally, as well as engineering and potteries, and the population expanded rapidly. The town was transformed by large areas of Victorian dwellings, absorbing neighbouring settlements. By the turn of the twentieth century the town was supported by a thriving market, theatres, pubs, schools, libraries, fairs, parks and churches. The depression of the interwar years and the closure of shipyards saw many lose their jobs, but the period also saw the start of the chemical industry at Billingham, which grew into a vast complex. Although today Stockton has lost much of its traditional industry, sites have been turned into business parks, attracting service industries and a university campus. The story of the town tells of heroes, inventors, business leaders, rioters as well as the lives of ordinary folk. Illustrated throughout, this accessible historical portrait of the transformation that Stockton-on-Tees has undergone through the ages will be of great interest to residents, visitors and all those with links to the town.
Lorenzo Ghiberti
Lorenzo Ghiberti was the most celebrated sculptor of his day – praised by Alberti, admired by peers and trusted with Florence’s most prestigious commissions, including the iconic Baptistery doors. Yet his legacy has often been diminished, cast as a decorative hangover from the Gothic era and overshadowed by Donatello’s perceived Renaissance modernity. This book reconsiders Ghiberti’s achievement by focusing on his mastery of materials and design across bronze, glass, marble and drawing. From complex narrative reliefs to architectural ornament, Ghiberti emerges not just as a skilled craftsman, but as an inventive, multidimensional artist who redefined the possibilities of sculptural storytelling. By understanding him on his own terms, we gain a richer picture of early Renaissance invention and its lasting visual impact.
Where There Be Spies
Glory Brown is finally set to start her training as a junior spherinaut at the Parliamentarium. Will she turn out to be an owl, a bee, a fox, or a magpie, like her mama? She's been waiting a lifetime for this adventure . . . and yet all she wants to do is make her family proud and try not to be homesick for the Seam and all its charm. As Glory struggles to find her place as the new kid - one with a lot of questions and a soft spot for monsters - she's also coping with the after-effects of Paxton's treachery, like the curse that still plagues her. In fact, the worlds of the Outersphere are all in the process of recovering - and Glory suspects they haven't seen the last of Paxton, either. When top secret spherinautical charts go missing, parcels are tampered with, and the pocket-orreries go haywire, the Parliamentarium of Junior Spherinauts plunges into chaos. Now, Glory, Marcus, and their new friends must work together to figure out who the thief is and if they have what it takes to save the worlds again.

Cumbernauld From Old Photographs
Cumbernauld in North Lanarkshire has seen huge changes over the years. Originally a village built around Cumbernauld Castle and Cumbernauld House, it was designated a new town in 1955 to house people living in poor conditions and war-damaged areas in Glasgow and elsewhere. Its population grew rapidly as construction started and by 1967, when the town centre was opened by Princess Margaret, Cumbernauld was winning awards for its innovative modernist architecture. Construction and expansion has continued in the ensuing years, with some of its original architecture being modified and even rebuilt for the changing requirements of people living in present-day Scotland.In Cumbernauld From Old Photographs the author has drawn on a remarkable selection of old photographs to give a pictorial record of how much the town and the community has changed over the years. Although many of landmarks have remained the same over the years the photographs show the town adapting and evolving with many other buildings being replaced and the pattern of life in the town changing for many too. This fascinating collection of images will be of interest to those who have lived in Cumbernauld or know it well.
Erre születtél
AZ ERRE SZÜLETTÉL BŐVÍTETT, ÁTDOLGOZOTT KIADÁSÁT TARTOD A KEZEDBEN!
Dan Millman, A békés harcos útja világhírű szerzője már emberek százezreinek mutatott utat, hogy értelmet, célt és irányt találjanak életükben az ősi bölcsességen alapuló, modern életfeladat-rendszer segítségével, amelyet az Erre születtél lapjain ismerhetünk meg.
Ez az élvezetes kézikönyv akár jóskönyvként is használható, elsősorban azonban egy praktikus és könnyen érthető számmisztikai rendszer, amely az ősi püthagoraszi tanokra épül. Miután meghatározzuk saját születési számunkat, elgondolkodtató összefüggések sora tárul fel előttünk.
Részletes képet kapunk a születési számokból levezethető életutak sajátosságairól, amelyek figyelembevételével rátalálhatunk arra az ÉLETRE, amelyre SZÜLETTÜNK.
A bővített, átdolgozott kiadás tartalmából:
• 1750-ig visszamenőleg meghatározhatjuk bárki születési számát és a hozzá tartozó életutat – beleértve a 2000 után születetteket is, akiknél egy számjegyű szám jelzi az életutat.
• Megtudhatjuk, milyen kihívásokkal kell szembenéznünk, és milyen erősségek jellemzik az egyes életutakat a pénz, szexualitás, egészség és életfeladatok terén.
• Megismerhetjük azokat a kulcsfontosságú spirituális törvényeket, amelyek segítenek leküzdeni az akadályokat.
• Útmutatót kapunk ahhoz, hogy megtaláljuk a képességeinkhez és belső vágyainkhoz leginkább illő hivatást.
• Feltárulnak kapcsolataink rejtett dinamikái és az ismétlődő mintázatok.
• Megtanulhatjuk, hogyan éljünk harmóniában életünk 9 éves ciklusaival.
• A szerző számos példát hoz hírességek és ismert emberek életútjából.
Miután saját számunkat meghatároztuk, barátaink, rokonaink és szeretteink adataival is elkezdünk játszani – és újabb, elgondolkodtató összefüggésekre bukkanunk. Az életcél-rendszer lehetővé teszi számodra, hogy a saját követendő életutadon kívül a barátaid, szeretteid, ügyfeleid, munkatársaid és más ismerőseid kijelölt útját is világosan meglásd.
Az éhség titka
Jason Fung, aki Az elhízás titka című könyvével ezreknek segített lefogyni, új kötetében a hízás alapvető, kiváltó okát, az éhség természetét és szerepét vizsgálja, és feltárja azt a három erőt, amely evésre késztet bennünket: a fizikai, az érzelmi és a társas éhséget. A fogyás hagyományos megközelítése ugyanis alapvetően csak tüneti kezelés, ami nem jelent tartós sikert. A tartós siker kulcsa ugyanis az éhségérzet kezelése, hiszen ezen keresztül tudjuk megváltoztatni azt a biológiai beállítási pontot, amely meghatározza, mennyi zsírt igyekszik a szervezet megtartani.
A könyv három aranyszabállyal és ötven gyakorlati tanáccsal segít felismerni és kezelni az éhséget: megtanítja, hogyan szakítsd meg az érzelmi evés körforgását, hogyan lassítsd az emésztést, és hogyan állj ellen a folyamatos evésre ösztönző társas nyomásnak. Segítségével nemcsak a fogyás, hanem az elért eredmény megtartása is sikerülni fog.
Newport Bus
Newport Bus, the operating name of Newport Transport Limited, is the main provider of bus services in the city of Newport. It is one of a few remaining municipal bus companies in the United Kingdom and the second largest in Wales after Cardiff Bus.
