Never let me go
Shortlisted for the 2005 Booker Prize
Kazuo Ishiguro imagines the lives of a group of students growing up in a darkly skewed version of contemporary England. Narrated by Kathy, now thirty-one, Never Let Me Go dramatises her attempts to come to terms with her childhood at the seemingly idyllic Hailsham School and with the fate that has always awaited her and her closest friends in the wider world. A story of love, friendship and memory, Never Let Me Go is charged throughout with a sense of the fragility of life.

hodnotenie.“

In A Garden Burning Gold
Rhea and her twin brother, Lexos, have spent an eternity using cunning and magic to help rule their small, unstable country. Rhea controls the seasons to show favor to their most loyal stewards with bountiful harvests and short winters, while Lexos keeps the tides strong and impassable to maintain the country's borders.
Reigning over them both is their father, who holds dominion over death, using his most powerful weapon-fear-to keep the people, and his children, in line. For a hundred years, Rhea and Lexos have been each other's only ally, defending themselves and their younger siblings against their father's increasingly unpredictable anger while also trying to keep up the appearance of unity and prosperity within their borders. Now, with an independence movement gaining ground, other nations jockeying for power, and their father's iron grip weakening, the twins must take matters into their own hands to keep the world from crashing down around them.
But as Rhea and Lexos travel beyond the security of their home to try to save their family, they begin to draw very different conclusions about their father's style of rule. And if the siblings aren't careful, they'll end up facing each other on the battlefield. In a Garden Burning Gold is a captivating saga of love and legacy that explores the limits of power and the bonds of family-and how far both can be bent before they break.

This is what this book brings you: you support climate protection, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because more and more people have less and less time to maintain social relationships and friendships due to stress in their everyday working lives but also in their private lives. This often results in involuntary inner and outer isolation, which affects people of all ages - from the single person in the home office to the retiree without a family. This sounds absurd in an age of unimagined leisure opportunities. Even the Internet can only be recommended as a tool to a limited extent, because lonely people in particular can very well lose themselves here. The problem is that those who feel lonely and isolated quickly get caught up in a never-ending downward spiral of lack of contact, social isolation and depression, from which it is difficult to find their way out again. This book shows how to succeed in spite of this. We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance.

Because every change, no matter how big, begins with the first step. But it is precisely this first step to go at all that many people fail.

Delphi Complete Works of Nicolas Poussin (Illustrated)
The seventeenth century painter Nicolas Poussin founded the French Classical tradition, working the majority of his career in Rome. He specialised in history paintings, depicting scenes from the Bible, ancient history, and mythology, which are notable for their narrative clarity and dramatic force. Poussin was a man of contrasts; sensual, yet austere and intellectual, prizing reason, order and dispassion above all else. His art is a reconciliation and synthesis of these traits, setting an example of what would become the standard for a long tradition of academic art, continuing until the end of the nineteenth century. His influence was far-reaching, winning the approval of the Neoclassical masters, the Post-Impressionists and even modernists like Pablo Picasso. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail.

Because our education system urgently needs to be rethought. In the rapid digital transformation, it is increasingly reaching its limits, and not only because of its outdated technical equipment. Knowledge is still imparted primarily via frontal instruction, interactive communication methods and techniques are hardly taken into account. Digital learning, also known as blended learning, requires a special degree of personal responsibility with the need to organize and motivate oneself completely independently. Anyone who wants to learn effectively online should also know how our brain works in conjunction with digital tools and what to look out for in virtual learning. This book therefore shows how we can use digital tools in a targeted manner to absorb the necessary information and thus increase knowledge in the long term - and how our education system would have to be changed accordingly.
