Vision and Art: The Biology of Seeing
In Vision and Art, Harvard neurobiologist Margaret Livingstone demonstrates that how we see art depends ultimately on the cells in our eyes and our brains. In this new expanded edition Livingstone thoroughly updates this groundbreaking study with the latest findings gathered from her research, with 32 additional pages of new text and images, including 3 brand new chapters. She begins by offering a comprehensive account of the biology of vision, drawing on the history of science and her own cutting edge discoveries. She then turns to art and delves into the science underlying various phenomena in painting, using many examples from the mysterious allure of the Mona Lisa to the amazing atmospheric effects of the impressionists to illustrate her points. Along the way, she shows how similar effects can be used to enhance the impact of advertisements, and explores the different ways images look in paintings, in photographs, on TV, and on computer screens. Accompanying Livingstone's lively and lucid prose are many easy to understand charts and diagrams that clarify her points. Some of these illustrations are based on simple and elegant experiments that show us how the human visual system translates light into color. Others demonstrate how cells in the retina code information and send it to the brain. Still others shed light on how great painters devise techniques to fool the eye into seeing depth and movement. By skillfully bridging the space between science and art, Vision and Art will arm artists and designers with new techniques that they can use in their own craft and thrill any reader with an interest in the biology of human vision.

OWC Miss Julie and Other Plays
The Father; A Dream Play; Miss Julie; The Ghost Sonata; The Dance of Death 'Ibsen can sit serenely in his Doll's House,' Sean O'Casey remarked, 'while Strindberg is battling with his heaven and his hell.' Strindberg was one of the most extreme, and ultimately the most influential theatrical innovators of the late nineteenth century. The five plays translated here are those on which Strindberg's international reputation as a dramatist principally rests and this edition embraces his crucial transition from Naturalism to Modernism, from his two finest achievements as a psychological realist, The Father and Miss Julie, to the three plays in which he redefined the possibilities of European drama following his return to the theatre in 1898. Michael Robinson's highly performable translations are based on the authoritative texts of the new edition of Strindberg's collected works in Sweden and include the Preface to Miss Julie, Strindberg's manifesto of theatrical naturalism.

A vonzás szépsége
Sere és Ace alkuja ugyan felbomlott, de ez nem jelenti azt, hogy Sere végre megszabadult a nehézségektől. Még nem tette túl magát Ace-en, ráadásul újabban zavarban érzi magát Rhett előtt. Változóban vannak a dolgok: Ace mintha már más szándékkal közeledne felé, mint korábban, Rhett pedig egyre nyitottabb és barátságosabb.
Sere lassan ráébred, hogy szerelmes, de egy vadonatúj kihívással kell szembenéznie, mégpedig azzal, hogy milyen is párkapcsolatban élni. Végre rálel a saját társaságára, és úgy érzi, tartozik valahova, valakihez. Ám nem mindenki az, akinek mondja magát. Meg kell birkóznia saját bizonytalanságával és a kaliforniai élete miatti rossz érzéseivel is. Rég történt eseményekre derül fény, fájdalmas érzések törnek felszínre, de ezúttal már Serén múlik, hogy egyedül néz-e velük szembe.
Vajon sikerül rátalálnia önmagára és a problémák ellenére is kitartania amellett, akit szeret?

Secret War: Spies, Codes And Guerrillas 1939–1945
'As gripping as any spy thriller, Hastings's achievement is especially impressive, for he has produced the best single volume yet written on the subject' Sunday Times 'Authoritative, exciting and notably well written' Daily Telegraph 'A serious work of rigourous and comprehensive history ...royally entertaining and readable' Mail on Sunday In 'The Secret War', Max Hastings examines the espionage and intelligence machines of all sides in World War II, and the impact of spies, code-breakers and partisan operations on events. Written on a global scale, the book brings together accounts from British, American, German, Russian and Japanese sources to tell the story of a secret war waged unceasingly by men and women often far from the battlefields but whose actions profoundly influenced the outcome. Returning to the Second World War for the first time since his best-selling 'All Hell Let Loose', Hastings weaves into a 'big picture' framework, the human stories of spies and intelligence officers who served their respective masters. Told through a series of snapshots of key moments, the book looks closely at Soviet espionage operations which dwarfed those of every other belligerent in scale, as well as the code-breaking operation at Bletchley Park - the greatest intelligence achievement of the conflict - with many more surprising and unfamiliar tales of treachery, deception, betrayal and incompetence by spies of Axis, Allied or indeterminate loyalty.

A féktelen trónörökös - Északi dinasztiák
„Ez a LEGJOBB királyi romantikus regény, amit eddig olvastam.” - Angie and Jessica’s Dreamy Reads „Norvégia koronahercege rabul ejtette a szívemet.” - Escapist Book Blog Egyedülálló romantikus regény. Elsőre csak egy átlagos, húszas évei vége felé járó, jóképű fickónak tűnök. Önbizalomból soha nem szenvedtem hiányt. Tetovált testem olyan, mint egy skandináv félistené, és legalább úgy szeretem a nőket, ahogy ők engem. Ha nem siklóernyőzöm vagy száguldok az autómmal, akkor az éppen aktuális nőmmel élvezem az életet. Egy átlagos szingli férfinak ez pont elég. Csak hogy én nem vagyok átlagos szingli férfi. Magnus herceg vagyok, Norvégia trónörököse. A legutóbbi botrányommal sikerült az egész királyi családot lejáratnom. Csak egyetlen módon tehetem mindezt jóvá: ha összeszedem magam, és felnövök a feladathoz. Máskülönben nem én leszek a trón várományosa. Tehát vagy lemondok a trónról, vagy… megházasodom. Feleségül veszek egy kékvérű idegent. Például a lichtensteini Izabella hercegnőt. Csendes, intelligens, és hihetetlenül szép. Neki sem tetszik a házasság gondolata, és ezt nem fél a tudtomra adni. Azt mondja, igazi nőcsábász vagyok, semmit nem veszek komolyan, és akkora az egóm, hogy nem férek be a palotába. Szerintem eltökélt szándéka, hogy megkeseríti az életemet. Annak ellenére, hogy a házasságunk maga lesz az állóháború, elhatároztam, hogy megtöröm Ella távolságtartó, prűd hozzáállását, és felszínre hozom a vad, szexi nőt, aki benne lakozik. Megmutatom, milyen az igazi királynő. Már csak az a kérdés, hogy engedi-e. Karina Halle New York Times bestsellerszerző legújabb szexi és romantikus királyi regénye egy igazi szerelembomba, amely ha robban, mindent lángba borít.

Knaanic Language: Structure and Historical Background
Canaanite glosses, i.e. medieval Slavic, especially Czech glosses, recorded in Hebrew script, have aroused the interest of researchers since the first half of the19th century. Despite long-term research their appearance has not been sufficiently described and explained until today. A conference, the contributions to which are contained in this book, was organized as a part of and supported by the grant project of the Czech Science Foundation No. P406/11/0861 Kenaanské glosy ve středověkých hebrejských rukopisech s vazbou na české země (Canaanite Glosses in Medieval Hebrew Manuscripts Related to the Czech Lands). Its goal was to diminish the number of unresolved questions by focusing on the problem of Knaanic language proper as well as connected phenomena. Many leading scholars in Hebrew, Yiddish, and Slavic linguistics have contributed to the volume. To illuminate the problem from different perspectives, scholars from related fields were welcome to contribute. In total, seventeen contributions have been gathered bringing new findings contextualizing the Canaanite glosses as well as new findings of the glosses themselves. Further achievements are new facts about related phenomena like a literary depiction of Prague´s pogrom of 1389, etymology of the word for Jew in Common Slavic, biblical usage of the word Canaan or glosses of a small corpus of Judeo-Portuguese, all of which are published in the present volume. The contributors to the volume adopted various methodological approaches, which was encouraged to show the plurality of perspectives and open further discussions. The editors hope that these proceedings substantially contribute to many of the topics of the most recent research and open new research horizons in this field for the future
