Peter May provides an essential narrative on how events unfolded and a lucid analysis of the sporting, political and moral context. Product details Format Hardback | 352 pages Dimensions 156 ...

Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, a young woman defies all odds and survives-but she awakens with no idea who she is, or what happened to her. Refusing to answer to "Jane Doe" for another day, the woman renames herself "Water" for the tiny, hidden marking on her body-the only clue to her past. Taken in by old Ginny Fitzgerald, a crotchety but kind lady living on a nearby horse farm, Water slowly begins building a new life. But as she attempts to piece together the fleeting slivers of her memory, more questions emerge: Who is the next-door neighbour, quietly toiling under the hood of his Barracuda? Why won't Ginny let him step foot on her property? And whydoes Water feel she recognizes him? Twenty-four-year-old Jesse Welles doesn't know how long it will be before Water gets her memory back. For her sake, Jesse hopes the answer is never. He knows that she'll stay so much safer-and happier-that way. And that's why, as hard as it is, he nee...

Vintage music buffs have long been bedazzled by bizarre, cartoonish album covers tagged with the signature "Flora." In the 1940s and '50s, James (Jim) Flora designed dozens of diabolic cover illustrations, many for Columbia and RCA Victor jazz artists. His designs pulsed with angular hepcats bearing funnel-tapered noses and shark-fin chins, who fingered cockeyed pianos and honked lollipop-hued horns. In the background, geometric doo-dads floated willy-nilly like a kindergarten toy room gone anti-gravitational. He wreaked havoc with the laws of physics, conjuring up flying musicians, levitating instruments, and wobbly dimensional perspectives. Yet Flora's wondrous, childlike exuberance was subverted by a sinister tinge of the grotesque. As Flora confessed in a 1998 interview, "I got away with murder, didn't I?" This is the first collection of the marvelous, mischievous album art of Jim Flora (1914-1998). The book contains most of Flora's known cove...

Universum - dieser Begriff bezeichnet nicht nur den Weltraum, sondern umfasst die Gesamtheit aller Dinge in unserer Welt. Doch was wäre, wenn das Universum doch nicht die gesamte Welt darstellen würde? Wenn es zwei, drei, ja unendlich viele Universen gäbe? Dass die Idee des Multiversums, also mehrerer möglicher Universen, nicht nur Stoff für Science-Fiction-Romane ist, sondern ein wichtiges Forschungsfeld der Physik, das unseren Blick auf die Welt und unser Verständnis der Wirklichkeit verändert, zeigt Brian Greene in seinem Bestseller.
