Bread and How to Eat It: A Cookbook
This is a book about bread: how to make it and how to eat it at every stage of its life cycle—from the James Beard Award-nominated owner of cult-favorite bakery Bread & Salt.
“What happens when an all-important subject like bread is tackled by one of the most talented chefs and one of the most engaging food writers in the country? Magic.” —Mark Bittman, author of How to Cook Everything
Bread and How to Eat It is a timely revival of cucina povera (poverty cooking)—a bread-centric approach to meal prep that has fallen out of favor in American kitchens and that baker Rick Easton is hell-bent on restoring.
In these pages, home cooks will discover everything they need for baking their own bread (although Easton strongly recommends you frequent your local bakery, as people have for hundreds of years); things to make with bread (Bread Meatballs! Pasta with Bread Crumbs and Cauliflower!); things to eat with bread (Greens and Beans! Dried Chestnut and White Bean Soup!); and, of course, the ultimate guide to sandwiches you never knew you needed (Tuna with Harissa, Eggs, and Olives! Frittata, Artichoke, Pecorino, and Mint!).
A celebration of bread in all its forms—from fresh-baked to stale, from slices to crumbs—Bread and How to Eat It is an eminently accessible, riotously opinionated, and utterly indispensable cookbook for making the most of every loaf.
Star Wars: Outbound Flight
On an epic voyage far beyond the Republic, the Jedi will confront their most extraordinary enemy-and test the limits of honor and sacrifice against their most devastating challenge. . . .
The Clone Wars have yet to erupt when Jedi Master Jorus C'baoth petitions the Senate for support of a singularly ambitious undertaking: the dream of Outbound Flight. Six Jedi Masters, twelve Jedi Knights, and fifty thousand men, women, and children will embark-aboard a gargantuan vessel, equipped for years of travel-on a mission to contact intelligent life and colonize undiscovered worlds beyond the known galaxy.
Unknown to the famed Jedi Master, the successful launch of the mission is secretly being orchestrated by an unlikely ally: the evil Sith Lord, Darth Sidious, who has his own reasons for wanting Outbound Flight to move forward.
Yet Darth Sidious is not the mission's most dangerous challenge. Once underway, the starship crosses paths at the edge of Unknown Space with the forces of the alien Chiss Ascendancy and a brilliant mastermind named Thrawn. Even Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, aboard Outbound Flight with his young Padawan student, Anakin Skywalker, cannot help avert disaster. Thus what begins as a peaceful Jedi mission is violently transformed into an all-out war for survival against staggering odds-and the most diabolical of adversaries.
My Thoughts Exactly
So, this is me. Lily Allen.
I am a mother, and I was a wife. I'm also a singer and a songwriter. I have loved and been let down. I've been stalked and assaulted. I am a success and a failure. I've been broken and full of hope. I am all these things and more.
I'm telling my truth because when women share their stories, loudly and clearly and honestly, things begin to change - for the better.
So, this is my story. These are my thoughts exactly.

Nehéz idők
Dickens utolsó nagy alkotói korszakában, 1854-ben jelentette meg a "Nehéz idők"-et. Részben hagyományos dickensi mű ez: társadalomjobbító harcának eredményes, tényleges változásokat hozó állomásai, a dologház, az adósok börtöne, a jogszolgáltatás, a kíméletlen iskolarendszer leleplezése közül most az ipari forradalom utáni munkássors sivárságának, kilátástalanságának bemutatása került sorra. Annyiban pedig teljesen új, hogy előtte az angol irodalomban senki nem foglalkozott a gyárvárosok szegényeinek világával, a munkáscsaládok tudatlanságával, reménytelenségével, alkoholizmusba menekülésével. A helyszín a képzeletbeli észak-angliai gyárváros, Coketown. Gradgrind, az utilitárius elveket valló iskolaigazgató csakis tényeket óhajt a nebulók fejébe verni, képzeletről, "csodálkozásról" hallani sem akar. Ebben a szellemben neveli két gyermekét is: Louisa leányát, akit a lelketlen gyároshoz, Josiah Bounderbyhoz ad feleségül, és fiát, Tomot, aki Bounderby bankjában kap állást. A két fiatal addig éli szeretetlen, örömtelen életét, míg a haszonelvű gondolkodásmód majdnem minden emberséget kiöl belőlük, s egy jóravaló munkás életét is tönkreteszik. Hajdani iskolatársuk, a vándorcirkusz bohócának lánya, a képzelet, a "csodálkozás" gyermeke, Sissy mutat végül utat nekik, hogy legalább valamit helyrehozhassanak mindabból, amit az előző generáció - tanítók, "reformerek", politikusok - elrontott. A nagy történész, Macaulay helytelenítően "komor szocialista" műnek nevezte a regényt, a kapitalista társadalom korabeli romantikus bírálói, John Ruskin és William Morris viszont lelkesen magasztalták, George Orwell pedig a benne megnyilvánuló "nemes haragot" dicsérte. A könyvből készült 1977-es, John Irvin rendezte angol tévéfilmsorozatban többek között Patrick Allen és Edward Fox alakította a főszerepeket.

Robin Hood
"Ahogy felmászott a kapu tetejére, Jimoen beakasztotta a horgot, rátette a naftalintartót, és miután győzedelmesen megrázta az öklét, leugrott. Legalábbis ez volt a terve. De ahelyett, hogy leért volna, az a bolond ifjú csak lógott ott. Valahogy sikerült a bőrzsák mellett a kabátját is a kapuhoz szögelnie. Karjaival hadonászott, lábaival rúgkapált, kétségbeesetten próbált szabadulni, hasztalan. Ezt látva jó néhány francia íjász ismét áthajolt a falon, és megpróbált végezni vele. Miközben Will és Allen feléjük lőtt, Robin a vár felé iramodott. Félúton, anélkül, hogy lassított volna, zsákmányolt egy elhagyott pajzsot. Ahogy elérte a kaput, Jimoen nevét kiáltotta, és feldobta a fiúnak a fegyvert. Ő elkapta, a feje fölé emelte, még épp időben, hogy visszaverje a nyílvesszőt, ami átdöfte volna a koponyáját. Robin mászni kezdett, közben üdvrivalgást hallott a háta mögül. - Nézzétek, mit meg nem tesznek az Oroszlánszívűért! - hallotta a király harsogó kiáltását. A francia íjászok tovább lőttek, de ahogy közeledett Jimoenhez, Robin orrát a nyilaknál és íjaknál sokkal rettenetesebb szag csapta meg. A sistergő olajé, amit a franciák rájuk akartak zúdítani. Elérte a fiatal katonát és rövid küzdelem után sikerült leakasztania. Leugrottak és arrébb gurultak, pont akkor, amikor az olaj lefröccsent a várfalon. A pajzsot szorongatva a biztonságos távolba rohantak, a földet és a pajzsot nyílzápor verdeste. Újabb üdvrivalgás fogadta őket, amikor végül lebuktak a pajtaajtó mögé."

Before the Big Bang
A revolutionary new account of our universe’s creation—and a breathtaking exploration of the landscape from which we sprang—from one of the world’s most celebrated cosmologists
What came before the Big Bang, and what exists outside of the universe it created? Until recently, scientists could only guess at what lay past the edge of space-time. However, as pioneering theoretical physicist Laura Mersini-Houghton explains, new scientific tools are now giving us the ability to peer beyond the limits of our universe and to test our theories about what is there. And what we are finding is upending everything we thought we knew about the cosmos and our place in it.
Mersini-Houghton is no stranger to boundaries—or to pushing through them. As a child growing up in Communist Albania, she discovered a universe beyond her walled-off world through the study of math and science, and through music. As a female cosmologist in a male-dominated field, she transcended the limits that society and her profession tried to place on her. And as a trailblazing researcher, she helped to revolutionize the study of our universe by revealing that, far from living in a cosmic Albania, with a world that ends at its borders, we are part of a larger family of universes—a multiverse—that holds wonders we are only beginning to unlock. Mersini-Houghton’s groundbreaking research suggests that we sit in a quantum landscape whose peaks and valleys hide a multitude of other universes, and even hold the secret to the origins of existence itself. Recent evidence has revealed the signatures of such sibling universes in our own night sky, confirming Mersini-Houghton’s theoretical work and offering humbling evidence that our universe is just one member of an unending cosmic family.
The incredible scientific saga of one woman’s mind-expanding journey through the multiverse, Before the Big Bang will reshape our understanding of humanity’s place in the unfathomable vastness of the cosmos.

The Book of Minds
Understanding the human mind and how it relates to the world that we experience has challenged philosophers for centuries. How then do we even begin to think about ‘minds’ that are not human?
Science now has plenty to say about the properties of mind. In recent decades, the mind – both human and otherwise – has been explored by scientists in fields ranging from zoology to astrobiology, computer science to neuroscience. Taking a uniquely broad view of minds and where they might be found – including in plants, aliens, and God – Philip Ball pulls these multidisciplinary pieces together to explore what sorts of minds we might expect to find in the universe. In so doing, he offers for the first time a unified way of thinking about what minds are and what they can do, arguing that in order to understand our own minds and imagine those of others, we need to move on from considering the human mind as a standard against which all others should be measured, and to think about the ‘space of possible minds’.
By identifying and mapping out properties of mind without prioritizing the human, Ball sheds new light on a host of fascinating questions. What moral rights should we afford animals, and can we understand their thoughts? Should we worry that AI is going to take over society? If there are intelligent aliens out there, how could we communicate with them? Should we? Understanding the space of possible minds also reveals ways of making advances in understanding some of the most challenging questions in contemporary science: What is thought? What is consciousness? And what (if anything) is free will?
The more we learn about the minds of other creatures, from octopuses to chimpanzees, and to imagine the potential minds of computers and alien intelligences, the greater the perspective we have on if and how our own is different. Ball’s thrillingly ambitious The Book of Minds about the nature and existence of minds is more mind-expanding than we could imagine. In this fascinating panorama of other minds, we come to better know our own.

Nature made Ash beautiful; Nurture made him a killer!
VICE CITY: NEW YORK IN THE 80s...
Nature made Ash Lynx beautiful; nurture made him a cold ruthless killer. A runaway brought up as the adopted heir and sex toy of “Papa” Dino Golzine, Ash, now at the rebellious age of seventeen, forsakes the kingdom held out by the devil who raised him. But the hideous secret that drove Ash's older brother mad in Vietnam has suddenly fallen into Papa's insatiably ambitious hands--and it's exactly the wrong time for Eiji Okamura, a pure-hearted young photographer from Japan, to make Ash Lynx's acquaintance... Epic in scope, and one of the best-selling shojo titles of all time in Japan, Akimi Yoshida put an electric shock into the genre and gained a huge crossover audience through Banana Fish's stripped-down, non-stop style.
Ash and his crew are faced with a new deadly enemy, as Golzine has hired ex-member of the French Foreign Legion Colonel Foxx and his elite cadre to destroy them. To fight back, Ash has formed alliances with local Chinese and African American gangs. While the two sides clash in an all-out melee in New York's garbage-strewn back alleys and abandoned buildings, Yau-Si is still obsessed with the notion of killing Eiji...

XX
'Extraordinary imagination . . . As the book races towards a mindboggling climax it leads the reader to some remarkable ideas about the nature of life, the universe and everything. Simply stunning.' - Big Issue
At Jodrell Bank a mysterious signal of extraterrestrial origin has been detected. Artificial intelligence expert Jack Fenwick thinks he can decode it. But when he and his associates at Hoxton tech startup Intelligencia find a way to step into the alien realm the signal encodes, they discover that it's already occupied - by ghostly entities that may come from our own past.
Have these 'DMEn' (Digital Memetic Entities) been created by persons unknown for just such an eventuality? Are they our first line of defence in a coming war, not for territory, but for our minds?
XX presents a compelling vision of humanity's unique place in the universe, and of what might happen in the wake of the biggest scientific discovery in human history.
As compelling as it is visually striking, Rian Hughes' first novel incorporates NASA transcripts, newspaper and magazine articles, fictitious Wikipedia pages, undeciphered alphabets, and 'Ascension', a forgotten novelette by 1960s counterculture guru Herschel Teague that mysteriously foreshadows events.
Wrapping stories within stories, Rian Hughes' XX unleashes the full narrative potential of graphic design. Drawing on Dada, punk and the modernist movements of the twentieth century, it asks us who we think we are - and where we may be headed next.
The battle for your mind has already begun.
