"Принизяването на целия мъжки мозък единствено до "мозъкът под кръста" е добра основа за шегички, но по никакъв начин не представя мъжкия мозък в неговата цялостност. Той също така е търсещият и изследващ бебешки мозък, и мозъкът на прохождащото момченце, водено от мотото "не мога да живея, без да се движа"; недоспалият, дълбоко отегчен, готов на рискове мозък на тийнейджъра; страстно отдаденият на любовни похождения мозък на мъжа в разцвета на силите си; замъгленият мозък на таткото; обсебеният от йерархията и конкуренцията агресивен мозък и прибързаният емоционален мозък. Мъжкият мозък освен ... |

A pocket sized book - 10 x 15.5 cm. ... Throughout his career, Charles Dickens often turned his hand to fashioning short pieces of ghostly fiction, and began the tradition of "the ghost story at Christmas". Many of his supernatural tales are presented here, including the brilliant novella "The Haunted man and the ghost's bargain", which deserves to be as well known as "A Christmas carol". While all aim to send a shiver down the spine, they are not without the usual traits of Dickens' flamboyant style: his subtle wit, biting irony, humorous incidents and moral observations. This & ... |

Технологията. Залогът на века има особена съдба. Отказана от две издателства, в крайна сметка тя е публикувана в университетска поредица с оскъден тираж и много бързо се изчерпва. Без да претърпи второ издание (освен пиратско), тя не престава да се чете и краде, а използващите я невинаги я цитират. В САЩ я преиздават постоянно в джобна поредица и я вписват в програмата за задължителни четива и учебници на повечето университети. Също така тя оказва силно влияние върху дисидентите от Източна Европа. Няма начин да се разбере напълно делото му, ако не се обърнем към тази основополагаща книга - Технологията. Залогът на века. ... |
