Автор: Ackerman, Elliot Название: 2034 HB ISBN: 1984881256 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781984881250 Издательство: Random House (USA) Рейтинг: Цена: 16550.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: From two former military officers and award-winning authors, a chillingly authentic, geopolitical thriller that imagines a naval clash between the US and China in the South China Sea in 2034--and the path from there to a nightmarish global conflagration. On March 12, 2034, US Navy Commodore Sarah Hunt is on the bridge of her flagship, the guided missile destroyer USS John Paul Jones, conducting a routine freedom of navigation patrol in the South China Sea when her ship detects an unflagged trawler in clear distress, smoke billowing from its bridge. On that same day, US Marine aviator Major Chris "Wedge" Mitchell is flying an F35E Lightning over the Strait of Hormuz, testing a new stealth technology as he flirts with Iranian airspace. By the end of that day, Wedge will be an Iranian prisoner, and Sarah Hunt's destroyer will lie at the bottom of the sea, sunk by the Chinese Navy. Iran and China have clearly coordinated their moves, which involve the use of powerful new forms of cyber weaponry that render US ships and planes defenseless. In a single day, America's faith in its military's strategic pre-eminence is in tatters. A new, terrifying era is at hand. So begins a disturbingly plausible work of speculative fiction, co-authored by an award-winning novelist and decorated Marine veteran and the former commander of NATO, a legendary admiral who has spent much of his career strategically out maneuvering America's most tenacious adversaries. Written with a powerful blend of geopolitical sophistication and literary, human empathy, 2034 takes us inside the minds of a global cast of characters--Americans, Chinese, Iranians, Russians, Indians--as a series of arrogant miscalculations on all sides leads the world into an intensifying international storm. In the end, China and the United States will have paid a staggering cost, one that forever alters the global balance of power. Everything in 2034 is an imaginative extrapolation from present-day facts on the ground combined with the authors' years working at the highest and most classified levels of national security. Sometimes it takes a brilliant work of fiction to illuminate the most dire of warnings: 2034 is all too close at hand, and this cautionary tale presents the reader a dark yet possible future that we must do all we can to avoid.

Описание: 'Quirky, comic, honest' MARIAN KEYES'Funny and charming' JUDY BLUME'Wise and wonderful' ALICE HOFFMAN'Written with such humour and heart' STYLIST 'A must read' REDIf you've ever wondered whether you love your dog more than your partner... Life hasn't gone according to Judy's plan. Her career as a children's book author has taken an embarrassing nose dive.
Her teenage son Teddy treats her with a combination of mortification and indifference. Her best friend has enough to deal with. And her husband, Gary, has become a pot-addled 'snackologist' who she can't afford to divorce.
On top of it all, she has a painfully ironic job writing articles for a self-help website-a poor fit for someone seemingly incapable of helping herself. Gleefully irreverent, tender, funny and uplifting, Separation Anxiety is a contemporary novel that celebrates the 'squeezed generation'; a book filled with heart and humour for anyone fumbling their way towards happiness. ___________________________________________________Praise for Separation Anxiety 'I adored this wise, funny, sad, quirky story...It's brilliant on the stories we tell ourselves and others in order to resist change, while beating ourselves up about not taking steps towards a happier future.
Heartbreaking and life-affirming.' Daily Mail'Separation Anxiety was exactly what I needed for a change of pace, funny and charming' - Judy Blume'What a gem of a novel...It's laced with moments of self-doubt and marital mayhem, but also the many small daily acts of mercy and heroism that love inspires.' - Diane Ackerman'I enjoyed Separation Anxiety very much... It has a real freshness of voice and though it is very poignant, several parts also made me laugh out loud' - Laura Barnett, author of The Versions of Us'So sweetly funny, so very touching.' Sainsburys magazine'My advice: Start reading and don't stop until you get to the last page of this wise and wonderful novel.' - Alice Hoffman '[A] novel about stress, release, and the unlikely places we turn to for comfort in uncertain times' - Vogue'Laura Zigman is able to home in on the most tender, revealing, exquisitely painful aspects of our relationships with others and with ourselves. And somehow she manages to come out the other end with hope.' - Chelsea Handler'[Separation Anxiety] is compassionate and funny, articulating with gentle humor the terrible things that we're all grappling with.
To steal a phrase from my daughter, it made me happy-cry.' - Laura Lippman

Автор: Ackerman John Название: The Cosmic Origin of the Rigvega ISBN: 1644387522 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781644387528 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 69200.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание:
Based upon hymns in praise of Mars, Venus, and Mercury visible in the heavens close to Earth, the Rig Veda reveals ninety-nine 30-year cyclic encounters by which the Earth's lithosphere was terra-formed between 3687 and 687 BC. During this entire Vedic Period modern Flora fell to the Earth as Soma (manna) along with the soil and water in which it flourished.
Ancient texts: reveal the force that drove the 'Continental Drift' of Alfred Wegener and produced the multi-layered granite cratons which raised the continents; decipher the 'column that supported the sky' chronicled by Marinus Anthony van der Sluijs in Traditional Cosmology V2; identify the cosmic cause of the K-T extinction of the dinosaur world; and place the origin of the 'cosmic microwave background' within the solar system 4000 BC.
Consistent traditional cosmologies of numerous cultures, including Amerind peoples, deflate the elitist stance which characterize modern academia: atheism; Darwinian evolution of all modern species including Homo Sapiens Sapiens; and 4.6 billion-year uniformitarian cosmology of the solar system.
Correctly interpreted for the first time, the Rig Veda explains that the outflow channels, imagined as the creator cloving his bladder, formed the Oceanus Borealis at the beginning of each kalpa, the lava 'golden egg' expanded within the ocean at Mars north pole, forming the northern island prithv, and at the end of each kalpa the waters rose above the island and swirled into the nabhi (navel) at its center forming the maelstrom, or whirlpool. All of these features are still visible on Mars today because the last event occurred in 687 BC. Thus the Rig Veda reveals the recent history of all the the planets, none of which currently resemble their forms in 4000 BC. Although not directly addressed in this text, the beneficence, wisdom and power revealed by the cyclic manipulation of the planets to terra-form the Earth within Biblical times, proves the reality of God.
