Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Esta colección cuenta con grandes nombres de la literatura, pero rescata también a maestros del género menos reconocidos. El resultado es una deliciosa oda a lo escalofriante y a lo extraño. Llega el invierno, las noches son más largas. Hay quienes se reúnen bajo el muérdago con sus familiares y amigos; otros abogan por la abolición del espíritu navideño bajo el lema «Prohibir la Navidad o Morir». Entre las páginas de esta colección de relatos acechan fantasmas y casas encantadas, pero también problemas cotidianos mucho más reconocibles y no menos aterradores. Y todos ellos tienen una cosa en común: el frío. Ese frío que nos recorre la columna al abrir la ventana una tarde de invierno, ya sea porque ahí fuera sopla una brisa helada o porque? ¿Quién sabe qué se esconde en esa oscuridad? CRÍTICA «Estos cuentos extraños son la lectura navideña perfecta, llena de visitantes inquietantes y espíritus amantes de la fiesta. » ?Christopher Hart, The Times «Es una verdadera delicia leer la obra de los maestros de lo extraño del pasado. » ?Oddly Weird Fiction *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - People must have watched the skies from time immemorial. Human beings have always shown intellectual curiosity in abundance, and before the invention of modern distractions people had more time-and more mental energy-to devote to stargazing than we have. Megaliths, Chinese oracle bones, Babylonian clay tablets, and Mayan glyphs all yield evi dence of early peoples' interest in the skies. To understand early astronomy we need to be familiar with various phenomena that could-and still can-be seen in the sky. For instance, it seems that some early people were interested in the points on the horizon where the moon rises or sets and marked the directions of these points with megaliths. These directions go through a complicated cycle-much more complicated than the cycle of the phases of the moon from new to full and back to new, and more complicated than the cycle of the rising and setting directions of the sun. Other peoples were interested in the irregular motions of the planets and in the way in which the times of rising of the various stars varied through the year, so we need to know about these phenomena, i. e. , about retrogression and about heliacal rising, to usc the technical terms. The book opens with an explanation of these matters. Early astronomers did more than just gaze in awe at the heavenly bodies; they tried to understand the complex details of their movements. By 300 H. C.…
