От автора на "Елегантната вселена" и "Тъканта на космоса". ... Паралелни вселени и фундаменталните закони на космоса. "Написах тази книга така, че да не изисква никакви познания в областта на физиката и математиката от страна на читателя. Вместо това, както и в предходните ми книги, използвах метафората и аналогията, като включих и множество исторически сведения, за да осигуря широкодостъпно описание на някои от най-странните и – в случай че се окажат верни – най-съществените прозрения на модерната физика. Много от разглежданите идеи изискват от читателя да изостави удобните си мисловни модели и ... |

Around the globe, people are facing the same problem - that we are born as individuals but are forced to conform to the rules of society if we want to succeed. To see our uniqueness expressed in our achievements, we must first learn the rules - and then how to change them completely. Charles Darwin began as an underachieving schoolboy, Leonardo da Vinci as an illegitimate outcast. The secret of their eventual greatness lies in a rigorous apprenticeship: by paying close and careful attention, they learnt to master the hidden codes which determine ultimate success or failure. Then, they rewrote the rules as a reflection ... |

The Science of Achieving Greater Things. We live in a world that's obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn't knock, there are ways to build a door. Hidden Potential offers a new framework for raising aspirations and exceeding expectations.

Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this piercing work distils three thousand years of the history of power into forty-eight well-explicated laws. As attention-grabbing in its design as it is in its content, this bold volume outlines the laws of power in their unvarnished essence, synthesizing the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun-tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, and other great thinkers. Some laws require prudence: Law 1: Never Outshine the Master, some stealth. Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions, and some the total absence of mercy. Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally, but like it or not, all have applications in real- ... |

Well-informed and richly illustrated, this book is the third volume of the popular Hidden Treasures of Bulgaria series. It takes the reader to lesser or completely unknown places in Bulgaria that fully live up to the promise of being "hidden treasures". Often located off (or off-off) the beaten track, they are integral part of what makes today's Bulgaria such a fascinating travel destination. Many of the forts, urbex sites, waterfalls and traditional villages are not to be found in any guidebook, and neither are some of the events and festivals described and photographed in detail here. This book provides ... |
