Dream Cities : Seven Urban Ideas That Shape the World
Beginning as a lightbulb flicker or a sketch on a napkin, the landmarks and sights of our public spaces that we now associate with the vast and impersonal reaches of history all began as living ideas in the minds of spirited dreamers. In this book, Wade Graham explores the visionary works that have set the blueprint for contemporary built spaces. From the utopian superblocks of Le Corbusier to the agrarian revivalism of Frank Lloyd Wright, Wade crafts profiles of the singular individuals who have come to define the places most of us live in.
Little Women
Little Women or, Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy is a novel by American author Louisa May Alcott (1832–1888). Written and published in two parts in 1868 and 1869, the novel follows the lives of four sisters — Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy March — and is loosely based on the author's childhood experiences with her three sisters. The first part of the book was an immediate commercial and critical success and prompted the composition of the book's second part, also a huge success. Both parts were first published as a single volume in 1880. The book is an unquestioned American classic.

The Articles of Confederation
The Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, commonly referred to as the Articles of Confederation, was the first constitution of the thirteen United States of America. The Second Continental Congress appointed a committee to draft the 'Articles' in June 1776 and proposed the draft to the States for ratification in November 1777. The ratification process was completed in March 1781, legally federating the sovereign and independent states, allied under the Articles of Association, into a new federation styled the "United States of America". Under the Articles the states retained sovereignty over all governmental functions not specifically relinquished to the central government.

The Awakening & Other Short Stories
The Awakening shocked turn-of-the-century readers with its forthright treatment of sex and suicide. Departing from literary convention, Kate Chopin failed to condemn her heroine's desire for an affair with the son of a Louisiana resort owner, whom she meets on vacation. The power of sensuality, the delusion of ecstatic love, and the solitude that accompanies the trappings of middle- and upper-class life are the themes of this now-classic novel. As Kaye Gibbons points out in her Introduction, Chopin "was writing American realism before most Americans could bear to hear that they were living it."

Werewolf Adoption Book Bundle
In this Werewolf Adoption Bundle, innocent, hapless young women are adopted by Alpha Werewolves. Here, you will find:
Caretaker
Delia works a job where she is unappreciated and underpaid. Her social life is nonexistent, her career is a joke, and to top it all off, her apartment is haunted. She's a human in a world owned by Werewolves and it's impossible for her to fit in unless she embraces the lifestyle that werewolves have deemed suitable for fragile humans such as herself, bundled up in swaddles and fed from bottles.
Sweet Little
Jason's an Alpha Werewolf without a Little. So, he goes to one of those facilities where they regress humans into Littles and adopt a sweet, eighteen-year-old human for himself. Anya is a petite Little who's new to the system and needs a little more training to make her just the perfect fit of him. He coddles her when she's good, but when she misbehaves... that's when the fun starts.
Crybaby
Olivia wakes up lying in an unfamiliar bed. The last thing she remembers is celebrating her eighteenth-birthday and now she's wrapped up in a swaddle and sucking on a dummy. There must have been something that's happened in between, but she doesn't remember any of it. Then, an Alpha walks into the room and picks her up and she does the one thing she knows and cries.
Reluctantly Rescued
Elly is happy with her life. She enjoys waking up from in her crib, having her nappy changed and then being held in a warm pair of arms as she is being fed from a milk bottle. So, when she wakes up one day in a hospital and is told by the police in uniform that she has been 'saved from those dreadful werewolves and their sick fantasies', she's understandably confused and adamant on going home.
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~
Excerpt from Reluctantly Rescued:
Elly wakes up feeling adrift and not at all like herself. The first sign that things aren't normal is that she can move around freely.
She looks around, trying to find Daddy. He doesn't like leaving her alone for very long, so she knows he'll be close. The more she looks, the more she panicked she gets because there are many people moving about and none of them is her Daddy. Her eyes fill with tears and she curls her knees up against her chest. She resists the urge to suck her thumb in her mouth because she doesn't know if her thumb is clean and Daddy gets upset when she does it.
"Hello," one of the older nurses walk over to her side, the skin between her brow furrowing when she looks at her. "How're you feeling, darling?" she asks.
Daddy says she shouldn't talk to strangers, but if she doesn't talk to her, she won't be able to help her find her Daddy. "Where's Daddy?" she asks, her voice a little shrill and panicked because she's feeling a little panicked. Her heart is beating very quickly.
"Your father's not here," she says kindly. "Do you remember how you got here?"
She shakes her head and curls up tighter. The last thing she remembers is going out for a walk with Daddy for their weekly walk and then running into one of his friends. She doesn't like John. He is always looking at her like there's something wrong with her.
"You were rescued," she says. "Someone remembers seeing your missing poster and rescued you from your kidnappers."
"Rescued?" she echoes, her voice shrill and child-like. It makes the nurse cringe and she doesn't feel any better for having said it in the first place. The word feels weird on her tongue, feels wrong. She didn't- she doesn't need rescuing. She's happy with Daddy. She remembers how terrible her life was before Daddy came along and took care of everything for her.
"Yes," she says and her enthusiasm is fast waning, like Elly isn't what she had expected and she's fast losing interest. Elly doesn't blame her. She had been invisible before her Daddy found her too.
Daddy sees her though. Daddy sees her all the time and takes care of her and makes sure she's always warm and her tummy is always full and he gives the best hugs. She misses him. She wishes he was

The Whalebone Theatre
This is the story of an old English manor house by the sea, with crumbling chimneys, draping ivy and a library full of dusty hardbacks. It's the story of the three children who grow up there, and the adventures they create for themselves while the grown-ups entertain endless party guests.
This is the story of a whale that washes up on a beach, whose bones are claimed by a twelve-year-old girl with big ambitions and an even bigger imagination. An unwanted orphan who grows into an unmarriageable young woman, fiercely determined to do things differently.
But as the children grow to adulthood, another story has been unfolding in the wings. And when the war finally takes centre stage, they find themselves cast, unrehearsed, into roles they never expected to play.
They raised themselves on stories. Now it's time for them to write their own...
Planta Sapiens
What is it like to be a plant?
It's not a question we might think to contemplate, even though many of us live surrounded by plants. Science has long explored the wonderful ways in which plants communicate, behave and shape their environments: from chemical warfare to turning their predators to cannibalism. But they're usually just the backdrop to our frenetic animal lives.
While plants may not have brains or move around as we do, cutting-edge science is revealing that they have astonishing inner worlds of an alternate kind to ours. They can plan ahead, learn, recognise their relatives, assess risks and make decisions. They can even be put to sleep. Innovative new tools might allow us to actually see them do these things - from electrophysiological recordings to MRI and PET scans. If you can look in the right way, a world full of drama unfurls.
In PLANTA SAPIENS, Professor Paco Calvo offers a bold new perspective on plant biology and cognitive science. Using the latest scientific findings, Calvo challenges us to make an imaginative leap into a world that is so close and yet so alien - one that will expand our understanding of our own minds.
From their rich subjective experiences to how they are inspiring novel ways of approaching the ecological crisis, PLANTA SAPIENS is a dazzling exploration of the lives of plants and a call to approach how we think about the natural world in a new, maverick way.

The Race Against Time
A transformational quest for the secrets of happy, healthy, whole-life running that will change the way you think about growing older.
Colourful, informative and inspiring, The Race Against Time is a story of cold science and heart-warming resilience; of champions and also-rans; of sprinting centenarians and forty-something super-athletes barely touched by age. Its heroes are experts and enthusiasts - scientists, coaches, runners - from many countries, each with a different story to tell.
This is a book for anyone who has ever felt the healing power of running – or simply wondered about the effects of ageing. It is both a very personal account of one man's journey from despair to hope, and an exhilarating guide, explaining how timely adjustments to lifestyle and training can slow the progress of physiological decay, while sheer human spirit can, if you are lucky, keep you running happily and healthily, all the way into extreme old age.
Covet
Grace's story continues in Covet, the third in New York Times bestselling author Tracy Wolff's lush, action-packed and romantic young adult paranormal fantasy series.
I may have reached my breaking point. As if trying to graduate from a school for supernaturals isn't stressful enough, my relationship status has gone from complicated to a straight-up dumpster fire.
Oh, and the Bloodletter has decided to drop a bomb of epic proportions on us all...
Then again, when has anything at Katmere Academy not been intense?
And the hits just keep coming. Jaxon's turned colder than an Alaskan winter. The Circle is splintered over my upcoming coronation. As if things couldn't get worse, now there's an arrest warrant for Hudson's and my supposed crimes - which apparently means a lifetime prison sentence with a deadly unbreakable curse.
Choices will have to be made... and I fear not everyone will survive.
A Love Song for Ricki Wilde
One florist. One pianist. One love story... One hundred years in the making.
Ricki Wilde has many talents, but being a Wilde isn't one of them. As the impulsive, artistic daughter of a powerful Atlanta dynasty, she's the opposite of her famous socialite sisters. In her bones, Ricki knows that somewhere, a more exciting life awaits her.
So, when she is invited to rent the bottom floor of a Harlem brownstone, Ricki jumps at the chance for a fresh start. She leaves behind her wealth and chaotic romantic decisions to realize her dream of opening a flower shop. Then one evening in February, as the heady scent of night-blooming jasmine fills the air, Ricki encounters a handsome stranger who knocks her world off balance in the most unexpected way.
Set against the backdrop of modern Harlem and Renaissance glamour, A Love Song for Ricki Wilde is a swoon-worthy love story of two passionate artists drawn to the magic, romance, and opportunity of New York.
A Horthy-rendszer és antiszemitizmusának mérlege
Ungváry Krisztián a XX. század talán legvitatottabb történeti időszakát értékeli. A korszakban meghatározó szerepet játszott a zsidóság és a róluk alkotott ellenségkép, és ez a helyzet majdnem minden egyéb társadalmi kérdést is befolyásolt.
Az ellenségkép azért tudott hatékonnyá válni, mert a megkésett magyar társadalomfejlődés következtében a zsidók a modernizáció első számú hordozójának számítottak. Magyarországon a modernizáció, illetve annak félelmetesként érzékelt kísérőjelenségei jobb- és baloldalon egyaránt radikálisan antiliberális válaszokhoz vezettek. Az 1919-es kommunista kísérlet sokkot okozó élménye után a jobboldali válaszok közül azok tudtak igazán érvényesülni, amelyek mondanivalójukat antiszemita köntösbe öltöztették.
Az antiszemitizmus tekintetében Horthy Miklós és rendszere kétarcú: a rendszer jóval radikálisabban volt antiszemita, mint elsőszámú vezetője. 1944-ig a kormányzó a közhangulattal is szembeszállva mérséklő politikát folytatott. A német megszállást követően viszont hozzájárult a parlament többsége által már régóta követelt antiszemita intézkedések végrehajtásához, beleértve a deportálást is, holott ennek következményeivel már régóta viszonylag pontosan tisztában volt.
A terjedelmében is jelentős mű valódi áttekintést és fontos, sokszor megrendítő felismeréseket kínál az olvasónak.
Ungváry Krisztián 1969-ben született Budapesten. Fő kutatási területe az első és második világháború hadtörténete; a XX. század politikatörténete; a szélsőjobb, valamint az állambiztonság szervezetei. Az Országos Széchenyi Könyvtár munkatársa és a Jahrbuch für Historische Kommunismusforschung (Berlin) szerkesztőbizottsága tudományos tanácsának tagja.
2015-ben szerezte meg az MTA doktora fokozatot A Horthy-rendszer mérlege című, 2012-ben könyvként publikált disszertációjával, melyet Akadémiai Díjjal is kitüntettek. Ennek a munkának javított és átdolgozott kiadását tartja kezében az olvasó.
Ginger, Turmeric and Indian Arrowroot
This small book explains in detail growing practices and health benefits of three prominent members of Ginger family such as ginger, turmeric and Indian arrowroot. Ginger is tropical and subtropical in its growth habit. It is grown for its aromatic rhizomes which are used as a vegetable, a spice and as a traditional medicine. Ginger rhizomes are often called ‘ginger root’ though it is not actually a root. As in case of all plants belonging to ginger family, turmeric also prefers tropical and subtropical moist climate for its growth. Turmeric plant is an herbaceous perennial crop mainly grown for its edible rhizomes which are used as an important spice, condiment and dye. Turmeric is also known as ‘Indian saffron’. Indian arrowroot is cultivated as a root crop just like ginger and turmeric for extracting arrowroot powder. Arrowroot powder is believed to have numerous medicinal properties.
