Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - WINNER OF THE SUNDAY TIMES AUDIBLE SHORT STORY AWARD'A gripping novel and a sharp, entertaining examination of the nature of art and its power to inspire and corrupt' Roddy DoyleNessa McCormack's marriage is coming back together again after her husband's affair. She is excited to be in charge… of a retrospective art exhibit for one of Ireland's most beloved and enigmatic artists, the late sculptor Robert Locke. But the arrival of two outsiders imperils both her personal and professional worlds: a chance encounter with an old friend threatens to expose a betrayal Nessa thought she had long put behind her, and at work, an odd woman comes forward claiming to be the true creator of Robert Locke's most famous work, The Chalk Sculpture. As Nessa finds the past intruding on the present, she must decide whether she can continue to live a lie - or whether she's ready to face the consequences once everything is out in the open. In this gripping debut, Danielle McLaughlin reveals profound truths about love, power, and the secrets that rule us.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Ambitious, clever, brilliant and very funny' Observer 'A dazzling Dickensian tale' Guardian'Did you know in Tudor times all the brothels were south of the river in Southwark and it was only much later that they moved up this way to Soho. Stews, they were called then.' Pungent, steamy, insati…able Soho; the only part of London that truly never sleeps. Tourists dawdling, chancers skulking, addicts shuffling, sex workers strutting, punters prowling, businessmen striding, the homeless and the lost. Down Wardour Street, ducking onto Dean Street, sweeping into L'Escargot, darting down quiet back alleyways, skirting dumpsters and drunks, emerging on to raucous main roads, fizzing with energy and riotous with life.On a corner, sits a large townhouse, the same as all its neighbours. But this building hosts a teeming throng of rich and poor, full from the basement right up to the roof terrace. Precious and Tabitha call the top floors their home but it's under threat; its billionaire-owner Agatha wants to kick the women out to build expensive restaurants and luxury flats. Men like Robert, who visit the brothel, will have to go elsewhere. Those like Cheryl, who sleep in the basement, will have to find somewhere else to hide after dark. But the women won't go quietly. Soho is their turf and they are ready for a fight.'A microcosm of swarming humanity' The Times'Ambitious, scathing and damn good fun' TLSLonglisted for the Dylan Thomas Prize; Nominiert: Dylan Thomas Prize, 2022.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - If you are living with, are close to, or are yourself someone who is hoarding, you'll know that the disorder goes far deeper than most people realise, affecting the whole family and presenting huge challenges to the physical, mental, emotional and even financial wellbeing of anyone involved.…Jo Cooke is Director of one of the UK's leading support services for people affected by hoarding and clutter, and has written this sensitive and empathetic book to help anyone experiencing hoarding difficulties. She gives insight into Hoarding Disorder - explaining what it is and, importantly, what it isn't - and what may trigger hoarding. There are strategies for how to assess the scale of situation and lay the groundwork to address it, and insights into who can help and how they can do it. An 8 step-plan gives practical steps to tackle the hoarding, supported by suggestions for what to do with the 'stuff', and advice on safeguarding - as well as techniques to support the hoarder as they attempt to stay clutter-free. There is space in the book for individuals and their own stories of hoarding, giving an empowering voice to people affected by the condition, and replacing the morbid curiosity that often accompanies it. With plenty of information on resources and therapies that can help, this is a warm and hugely practical guide that can only help anyone affected in any way by hoarding.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - It opens in the Christian medieval world at a time when science was trapped in a thicket of theology, metaphysics and mysticism, Enter William of Occam, Born in 1285, he was given to the Franciscans as a child, and sent to Oxford to study theology where his lectures and debates became notorio…us due to his insistence that science and religion were incompatible, his disproving of all the standard proofs of God, and his determination to discard all but the simplest explanations of any phenomenon: Occam's razor,This book brings alive this fascinating but virtually unknown figure, together with the tumultuous world in which he found himself, Meticulously researched, it also includes accounts of Occam's clash with the Pope and flight from Avignon translated for the first time from the Latin text of contemporary Vatican documents,However, this isn't just a book about Occam, for Life is Simple's thesis is that all modern science, indeed much of what we call modernity, is derived from Occam's razor's preference for simplicity, From Occam the book follows the razor's path as it was wielded by all of the giants of modern science, from Copernicus to Kepler, Galileo, Newton, Mendel, Darwin, Einstein (who wrote that 'the grand aim of all science [is] to cover the greatest number of empirical facts by logical deduction from the smallest possible number of hypotheses or axioms') or James Watson, who co-discovered of the double helix ('we were convinced that the truth, once found, would be simple as well as pretty'),In the course of the journey the author takes us on, he makes a compelling case for his claim that simplicity is the only principle that distinguishes science from magic, philosophy, mysticism, theology or pseudoscience, Given a choice, science always opts for the simplest solution that works, Yet although nearly all modern scientists accept the principle, few are aware they do so,Life is Simple is not only a history of science and an exploration of the most exciting areas of modern science, but it is also a history of the ideas that revolutionised the modern world, Additionally, it provides a fresh perspective on what science is really about a story as relevant today as in the medieval world.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The publication of the Michel Thomas ground-breaking, all-audio language learning materials has been a publishing phenomenon. Sales of over one million units in just eight years and the universal acclaim his method has excited would indicate that there is a large body of people who want to kn…ow more about how and why his method works where so many others have failed.The book will give a brief history of Michel's fascinating life and summarize how he became interested in teaching foreign languages, before going on to look at the experience of learning a foreign language in general and Michel's method of teaching in particular.It examines the barriers to language learning in both the UK and the US, Michel's focus on the role and quality of the teacher rather than the learner, and Michel's core belief that with the right teaching anyone can learn another language quickly and easily.The reader will be introduced to new trends in psychology and their relationship to the way Michel teaches foreign languages as well as examining conventional wisdoms.There follows a detailed analysis of Michel's programs for foreign language teaching and the implications for schools, colleges and universities if they wish to adopt his methodology and at the same time meet the requirements of the public examinations both in the UK and the US.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The best up-to-date, go-to book on the social and economic implications of artificial intelligence - Tyler Cowen'Rule of the Robots explores the future implications of artificial intelligence as a uniquely scalable and potentially disruptive technology.In this sequel to his prescient New York Times… bestseller Rise of the Robots, Martin Ford presents us with a striking vision of the very near future. He argues that AI is a uniquely powerful technology, a kind of 'electricity of intelligence' that is altering every dimension of human life, often for the better with advanced science being done by machines who can solve problems humans can not. AI has the potential to help us fight climate change or the next pandemic, but it also has a capacity for profound harm. Deep fakes-AI-generated audio or video of events that never happened-are poised to cause havoc throughout society. AI empowers authoritarian regimes like China with unprecedented mechanisms for social control. And AI can be deeply biased, learning bigoted attitudes from the data used to train algorithms and perpetuating them. Hard-hitting and thought-provoking, covering everything from self-driving cars to the history of deep learning to apps for diagnosing skin cancer, Rule of the Robots challenges our fears and preconceptions about artificial intelligence. Ford argues that AI is here to stay and the real question is not how to stop it, but how to control its negative potential and harness its power for good as AI transforms our economy, our politics, and our lives.
