Описание:

Martin Kerner blew it. A whiskey stained semester torpedoed his shot at the law degree he'd worked his whole life towards. With one final opportunity for redemption, what stands in his way is not a person or a thing. It's a place.
DETROIT.
A place, as a white suburbanite, he'd been indoctrinated to fear. A place where once upon a time, in a dark and snowy alley, he'd made a dangerous enemy. A place where a mysterious professor is seemingly hellbent on his failure.

And to go there means a showdown with Jack Kerner, his bigoted, alcoholic father who hides secrets borne from the city's race riots forty years in the past.

But in Danielle, a black girl of indomitable spirit and beauty, Martin finds it's also a place with an irrepressible soul. As she needles her way into his heart, the two Kerners are forced to reevaluate their thoughts on race, family and love. All the while, looming threats from their past indiscretions lurk in the city's shadows.

Nocturne In Black And White is the gritty and unflinching debut novel by Erik Belcarz. At times both unsettling and uplifting, this decades-spanning tale of love, loss, ruin and hope is sure to linger in the mind long after the last page is turned.

Описание: The Cooperativism and Democracy, edited by Bartlomiej Blesznowski is not purely a scientific book, but rather a guide which shows how scholars and activists wrote about the community, social participation and the politics in Poland in the early 20th century. The book contains a selection of texts in socio-political thought, led by the work of one of most important Polish thinkers – Edward Abramowski, socialist, philosopher and psychologist. Polish cooperativism can be inspiring to both contemporary researchers and political activists in Europe post the economic crisis, which brought about a crisis of faith in political and economic institutions. These works have a chance to become a significant voice in the debate over the relationship of contemporary economics and politics.Contributors are: Edward Abramowski, Fr. Stanislaw Adamski, Bartlomiej Blesznowski, Zygmunt Chmielewski, Zofia Daszynska-Golinska, Maria Dabrowska, Jan Hempel, Jerzy Kurnatowski, Romuald Mielzarski, Remigiusz Okraska, Maria Orsetti, Adam Prochnik, Marian Rapacki, Franciszek Stefczyk, Edward Taylor, Stanislaw Thugutt, Stanislaw Wojciechowski, and Jan Wolski. First published in Polish as Kooperatyzm, spoldzielczosc, demokracja. Wybor pism by Wydawnictwo Uniwerstytetu Warszawskiego in 2014. The current work includes an additional chapter ‘Through Cooperatives to the Future Order’ by Zofia Daszynska-Golinska.
