GTIN: 9781509882366 Raamatud
'Evocative . . . poignant . . . acute and funny' Observer 'The Revival of the Great Lucia Berlin Continues Apace' New York Times Best known for her short fiction, it was upon publication of A Manual for Cleaning Women in 2015 that Lucia Berlins status as a great American writer was widely celebrated. To populate her stories the places, relationships, the sentiments Berlin often drew on her own rich, itinerant life. Before Berlin died, she was working on a book of previously unpublished autobiographical sketches called Welcome Home. The work consisted of more than twenty chapters that started in 1936 in Alaska and ended (prematurely) in 1966 in southern Mexico. In our publication of Welcome Home, her son Jeff Berlin is filling in the gaps with photos and letters from her eventful, romantic, and tragic life. From Alaska to Argentina, Kentucky to Mexico, New York City to Chile, Berlins world was wide. And the writing here is, as weve come to expect, dazzling. She describes the places she lived and the people she knew with all the style and wit and heart and humour that readers fell in love with in her stories. Autorid: Lucia Berlin

Penguin Books Ltd Americana
GTIN: 9780141188232 Raamatud
His first novel, Don DeLillo's Americana passionately articulates the neurotic landscape of contemporary American life through a disintegrating embodiment of the American dream. Prosperous, good-looking and empty inside, 28-year-old advertising executive David Bell appears on the surface to have everything. But he is a man on the brink of losing his sanity. Trapped in a Manhattan office with soulless sycophants as his only company, he makes an abrupt decision to leave New York for America's mid-west. His plan: to film the small-town lives of ordinary people and make contact with the true heart of his homeland. But as Bell puts his films together in his hotel room, he grows increasingly convinced that there is no heart to find. Modern America has become a land that has reached the end of its reel... Don DeLillo (b.1936) was born and raised in New York City. Americana (1971), his first novel, announced the arrival of a major literary talent, and the novels that followed confirmed his reputation as one of the most distinctive and compelling voices in late-twentieth-century American fiction. DeLillo's comic gifts come to the fore in White Noise (1985), which won the National Book Award, Underworld (1997), hailed by Martin Amis as 'the ascension of a great writer', Cosmopolis (2003), adapted into a film by David Cronenberg, due to be released later this year, and Falling Man (2007), a novel about the aftereffects of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York. If you enjoyed Americana, you might like DeLillo's Libra, also available in Penguin Modern Classics. 'He's a writer who, once you read him, makes you want to read everything he's done' Martin Amis, Sunday Times 'Witty, clever and incisive ... a marvellously realized plot' Time Out 'Nearly every sentence of Americana rings true ... DeLillo is a man of frightening perception' Joyce Carol Oates Autorid: Don DeLillo

Longlisted for the 2025 BSHS Hughes Prize 'Ingenious. Caputo picks out a fascinating path and leads readers along it with the confidence of a practised pilot' Felipe Fernández-Armesto, author of 1492 'Accessible and entertaining, as well as deeply erudite and constantly mind-expanding' Philip Ball, author of How Life Works From their first appearance on Renaissance maps, linear tracks representing maritime voyages have shaped the way we see the world. But why do we depict journeys as lines, and what is their deeper meaning? Ferdinand Magellan's route to the Pacific embodied the promise of adventure and colonisation, while the scientific charts of the Royal Navy inspired others to plan conquests, navigate treacherous waters and establish settlements across the oceans. In Tracks on the Ocean, prize-winning historian Sara Caputo charts a hidden history of the modern world through the tracks left on maps and the sea. Taking us from ancient Greek itineraries to twenty-first-century digital mapping, via the voyages of Drake and Cook, the decks of Napoleonic warships and the boiler rooms of ocean liners, Caputo reveals how marks on maps have changed the course of modernity.

"A gem . . . . It is most definitely a work of major significance both historically and methodologically . . . . Youve got a classic on your hands. As for me and some of my colleagues . . . you will have our personal and classroom orders the moment the book comes out." --Mike Arons, West Georgia College "The book is well-organized and the content is comprehensive. The writing is clear and well-referenced. The examples are excellent . . . . I teach a course annually on Research Methods and Theory. I would recommend the book to those students and . . . would also promote the book among evaluators. Dr. Moustakas is an eminent scholar with a unique and important perspective. I believe this book could become a classic like Polanyis book." --Michael Quinn Patton, University of Minnesota "The organization and content of this book is very good. The writing is excellent. Clarity is a strong point . . . . (This] book is . . . an important contribution to the growing interest and activity in phenomenological approaches to research . . . . For advanced undergraduate . . . and graduate courses and . . . as a resource book (for] professionals." --Willard B. Frick, Albion College "A powerful and much-awaited contribution to human science methodology by clearly presenting the conceptual foundations and core processes of the heuristic model. Heuristic Research is an intense and comprehensive book for researchers, mental health practitioners, and those who value self-discovery in the fullness of the moment . . . . He gracefully weaves well-chosen examples from research studies and relevant literature into his discussions, allowing us easy access to his ideas." --Association of Humanistic Psychology "The manuscript is well-conceived and thoughtfully organized. The timely use of concrete examples is a strong feature of the book in a field that is highly philosophical and theoretical . . . . I wholeheartedly endorse this book." --Kevin MacNeil, Family Life Institute, Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada "The contents of the book . . . are laid out with a clarity rarely seen in the humanistic psychology literature." --Choice "A strikingly original contribution to qualitative methodology by Clark Moustakas. It is distinguishable above all by the intensely personal character of the research." --The Humanistic Psychologist "This book gives a clear presentation of heuristic methodology as a systematic form of qualitative research. It includes an explanation of how heuristic inquiry works in practice and the actual process of conducting a human science investigation is described in detail." --Bulletin de Methodologie Sociologique "By calling attention to the meanings and uses of tacit knowing and intuition as we seek to formulate and address questions in psychology, Moustakas helps us recognize the importance of cultivating heuristic sources and the formidable challenge of doing so. His book also serves to remind us of the preconceptions of a field that largely acts as if such sources can be ignored or given very short shrift indeed." --Contemporary Psychology A first of its kind, Heuristic Research presents heuristic methodology as an organized and systematic form for investigating human experience. Moustakas clearly illustrates how heuristic concepts and processes form both the components of the research design and the basis for a methodology. The mechanics of how heuristic inquiry works in practice are discussed and, using a step-by-step approach, the actual process of conducting a human science investigation is thoroughly outlined. Moustakas carefully describes various applications of heuristic research, the phases of heuristic research, and how to analyze collected data. In addition, practical examples are provided to guide the reader through the research process. Clearly written and well organized, Heuristic Research is certain to interest researchers and students in evaluation, psychology, social psychology, gender studies, gerontology, family studies, and sociology.

'Indefatigable reporting . . . it has become newly topical, too' Telegraph In this engrossing and deeply disturbing exposé from the bestselling author of Nuclear War: A Scenario, Annie Jacobsen tells the gripping story of a decades-long, covert project to bring Hitler's scientists and their families to the United States. In the chaos following the Second World War, the US government faced a critical decision: what to do with the great scientific minds of the Third Reich. Many were accused of war crimes, and others had stood trial at Nuremberg; one was convicted of mass murder. Nevertheless, the US government secretly decided that their knowledge of rocketry and medical advances were vital to the outcome of the Cold War. Drawing on exclusive interviews with dozens of Paperclip family members, colleagues, and interrogators, and dossiers discovered in archives across the world, Annie Jacobsen follows more than a dozen German scientists through their postwar lives and into one of the most startling, complex, nefarious, and jealously guarded government secrets of the twentieth century.

'Extraordinary ... Min Jin Lee has constructed a world so rich and intricate that you forget you're reading' TARA WESTOVER 'Magnificent ... a work of grace and beauty' MATTHEW DESMOND Min Jin Lee, the acclaimed author of the major global bestseller Pachinko, returns with a breathtaking contemporary epic that follows one family as they reckon with ambition and moderation, love and loyalty, personal dreams and familial duty. John and Helen Koh and their three children - Bo, DH and Mido - are building new lives in Korea when they find their worlds upended, first by a terrible betrayal and then by the 1997 Asian financial crisis. Striving to regain their footing, the Kohs set out to do whatever it takes to provide for their children's futures. They leave Seoul for Sydney and eventually settle in California, where new opportunities open for the Koh children, as the parents, strangers in a strange land, adjust to a difficult existence in which their qualifications mean little. Their way forward is lit by the faith that education will lead the next generation to the success and security that have eluded their parents. The Kohs, their friends, relatives and even their foes move in and out of each other's lives as they navigate love, work, fortune and fulfilment across the years. But with each new sacrifice and fresh horizon, larger questions begin to open up before them: what are we willing to give up to secure the happiness of the ones we love? What is the purpose of education? And what is truly important for a good life? In American Hagwon, Min Jin Lee has crafted a transcendent, panoramic novel of profound emotional richness, where the smallest of gestures can have enormous repercussions. This is the most ambitious and extraordinary work yet by one of our greatest novelists.

APRESS L.P. Deceptive Intelligence: AI, Social Engineering, and Securing the Human Element
Tootekood: A63618823 GTIN: 9798868821769 Raamatud
This book explores the transformative impact of artificial intelligence on social engineering and testing, offering a timely and necessary guide for navigating one of the most pressing challenges in modern cybersecurity. AI is not only revolutionizing how attackers exploit vulnerabilities but also how defenders test and strengthen their systems. With over 80% of data breaches attributed to human error or social engineering, and phishing responsible for 36% of successful cyberattacks, the stakes for organizations are higher than ever. The rise of AI tools capable of automating these attacks has introduced new complexities, making it critical for organizations to adopt advanced strategies to test their resilience.The book's core mission is to equip cybersecurity professionals with the tools, knowledge, and frameworks to counter these AI-driven threats ethically and effectively. Readers will discover how to simulate sophisticated AI-enabled attacks, from deepfake impersonations to multi-channel phishing campaigns, all while respecting ethical boundaries. Practical applications are emphasized, such as leveraging open-source tools to mimic real-world attack scenarios and using AI to analyze human vulnerabilities. It also provides actionable guidance on building defenses and training programs that reflect the rapidly evolving threat landscape.As AI tools like ChatGPT, deepfake generators, and voice synthesis platforms become increasingly accessible, their misuse in crafting malicious campaigns is accelerating. Research shows that 83% of organizations experienced a successful phishing attack in 2022, while incidents involving deepfakes rose 300% compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, the widespread availability of personal information on social media has created fertile ground for AI-driven reconnaissance, making targeted social engineering easier and more effective than ever. This book directly addresses these challenges, showing how to test against these threats before attackers can exploit them.What makes this book essential is its focus on preparing organizations for the future of security testing. It goes beyond describing threats by offering a blueprint for integrating AI into their existing workflows, enabling defenders to think like attackers and stay one step ahead. From actionable case studies to ethical frameworks, it provides a comprehensive resource for testing and improving defenses in environments where the line between human and machine deception grows increasingly blurred. This is not just a book about threats-it's a call to action for organizations to evolve their approach to security and embrace AI's potential to strengthen their defenses.What You Will learn: How AI reshapes social engineering and testing, acquiring the knowledge to simulate advanced threats such as AI-generated phishing, deepfakes, and automated reconnaissance.

"Do you know what Norwegians do to have fun? They go on skiing trips in the middle of the night!". During one year she will try to understand Norwegians, learn their language and adopt their traditions. She will try adapting to Norwegian working culture from Norwegian meeting habits at work to the famous Julebord or Christmas party. From Easter holidays at the cabin, to 17th of May celebrations with bunad, and adapting to making things koselig and eating traditional Norwegian food like sheep heads from Voss (smalahove), Lorelou sails through this journey with candor, trying to make Norwegian friends, dating a Scandinavian and cycling all over the country to discover this wonderful land. She falls slowly in love with this country nothing destined her to love. "A Frog in the Fjord" was a national bestseller in Norway in 2017 and is now available in English, edited for an international audience.

Tootekood: A19876255 GTIN: 9783125798823 Raamatud
Changez, ein junger Pakistani, trifft einen US-Amerikaner in Lahore. Sie kommen ins Gespräch und Changez berichtet von seinem alten und "erfolgreichen" Leben, damals in den USA vor 9/11. Denn der 11. September hat alles verändert und auf einmal musste Changez sich für eine Seite entscheiden. Der erste Zusatzartikel der amerikanischen Verfassung verbietet explizit die Einmischung der Politik in Religion oder Pressefreiheit - und doch, so scheint es, ist genau das geschehen. The Reluctant Fundementalist befasst sich kritisch mit solchen Fragen zu ethnischer und religiöser Toleranz sowie dem American Dream in Zeiten des Terrorismus. Als Rahmen für diese Fragen dient eine sorgsam strukturierte Kriminalgeschichte, die den Leser nicht mehr loslässt. The Reluctant Fundementalist ist sorgfältig und fachgerecht annotiert, enthält Landeskarten, eine Timeline der Ereignisse um 9/11 herum und der Beziehung U.S.A. / Pakistan, sowie weitere Zeitungsartikeln und Rezensionen, die den Unterricht unterstützen.Abiturempfehlung zu den Themenbereichen The American Dream, Immigration

HarperCollins Publishers Monumental: Great Buildings of the World Through the Hands and Eyes of a Stonemason
GTIN: 9780008658823 Raamatud
'I loved this book. What a joy to read a craftsman so clearly in love with his craft' SIMON JENKINS 'A wonderful read' DOUGALD O'REILLY Discover ancient stone wonders and architectural preservation secrets in the hands of one of the worlds greatest stonemasons. Across the world and across time, the buildings of the gods and royalty have mostly been made of stone, towering over the homes of us lesser beings who have had to make do with mud, wood or brick. When civilisations wish to create beauty to last for veneration of the gods or mortal men it is to stone they turn. Crossing oceans and hauling blocks across thousands of kilometres, to quarry and sometimes plunder pillars and statues to stand sentinel for glory. As one of the worlds most pre-eminent stonemasons and conservators Simon Warrack has worked in more than thirty different countries and with all major religions. In this book, Simon explores ten different places where he has learnt and plied his trade. From the Trevi Fountain to Angkor Wat, via Great Zimbabwe, Canterbury Cathedral and many more, he takes us to some of the greatest buildings and monuments in the world. Everywhere he goes, despite vast cultural diversity, he finds a communality through stone a shared desire to conserve and maintain heritage that has spanned continents, cultures and millennia. The story he tells is of the beauty of stone, restored and accompanied by the sound of chisels. He captures both the joys, skills and the challenges of conservation, as well as how easily restoration can damage the values and traditions it seeks to preserve if conducted with insensitivity. Underlying all his work is his passionate belief that stonemasons and conservators must be guided by the spirit with which people built, carved and cared for their monuments. Without this, monuments may have form and beauty, but they lose the essence and spirit of everything that caused them to be created. Autorid: Simon Warrack

Tootekood: A858823 GTIN: 9780393091069 Raamatud
Almost everything we touch and see (together with nerve impulses and light, the messengers of touch and sight) owes its character to the subtle architecture of atoms and molecules, an architecture whose building code is quantum mechanics. And when we come to large-scale phenomena that depends in a direct way on the details of atomic processes-for example lasers, superconductors, and solid-state electronics-then the explicit use of quantum physics is essential.
