On October 1, 1958, the world's first civilian space agency opened for business as an emergency response to the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik a year earlier. Within a decade, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, universally known as NASA, had evolved from modest research teams experimenting with small converted rockets into one of the greatest technological and managerial enterprises ever known, capable of sending people to the Moon aboard gigantic rockets and of dispatching robot explorers to Venus, Mars, and worlds far beyond. In spite of occasional, tragic setbacks in NASA's history, the Apollo lunar landing project remains a byword for American ingenuity; the winged space shuttles spearheaded the International Space Station and a dazzling array of astronomical satellites and robotic landers, and Earth observation programs have transformed our understanding of the cosmos and our home world's fragile place within it.Throughout NASA's 60-year history, images have played a central role. Who today is not familiar with the Hubble Space Telescope's mesmerizing views of the universe or the pin-sharp panoramas of Mars from NASA's surface rovers? And who could forget the photographs of the first men walking on the Moon?This compact edition is derived from our XL edition, which was researched in collaboration with NASA, and gathers hundreds of historic photographs and rare concept renderings, scanned and remastered using the latest technology. Texts by science and technology journalist Piers Bizony, former NASA chief historian Roger Launius, and best-selling Apollo historian Andrew Chaikin round out this comprehensive exploration of NASA, from its earliest days to its current development of new space systems for the future.The NASA Archives is more than just a fascinating pictorial history of the U.S. space program. It is also a profound meditation on why we choose to explore space and how we will carry on this grandest of all adventures in the years to come.About the seriesTASCHEN is 40!

Explore the places that time forgot. These abandoned, mysterious, sleeping monuments around the world have been relegated to the margins of history. From ancient ruins and crumbling castles to more recent relics – an art deco New York subway station, a Soviet ghost town in the Arctic Circle, a flooded Thai mall teeming with aquatic life – Travis Elborough takes you on a journey into these strange, overlooked, and disappearing worlds and immortalizes them in this book of original maps, accompanied by moving historic and geographic accounts of each site. The featured locations are a stark reminder of what was, and the accounts in this investigative book help to bring their stories back to life, telling us what happened, when and why, and to whom. The book features 40 sites, including: Santa Claus, Arizona, USA: A festive tourist resort-turned-ghost town deep in the desert where you could once meet Santa Claus any day of the year; Crystal Palace Subway, London, UK: One of the city’s best-kept secrets is an underground, cathedral-like relic that many Victorian commuters bustled through; Montserrat, West Indies: The small Caribbean island with a population of 5,000 that was evacuated when its volcano erupted in 1995. The volcano is still active, and nearly half the island remains a designated exclusion zone; Balaklava Submarine Base, Crimea: The former top-secret Soviet submarine base that was kept off all official maps and known as Object 825 GTS; Volterra Psychiatric Hospital, Tuscany, Italy: Once dubbed ‘the place of no return’, this long-closed lunatic asylum once housed 6,000 patients who were never allowed to leave. From eerie ghost towns to epic undersea monuments, armchair travelers and adventure seekers will be captivated by this curious atlas of strange and surreal abandoned sites across the world. It follows on from the success of the award-winning title Atlas of Vanishing Places, and forms part of an atlas series that offers lesser-known histories of hidden, fascinating locations worldwide.Also in the Unexpected Atlas series: Atlas of Improbable Places, Atlas of Untamed Places, Atlas of the Unexpected and Atlas of Vanishing Places (WINNER Illustrated Book of the Year - Edward Stanford Travel Writing Awards 2020).

Poprvé od roku 1900 je zde originální domácí anatomický atlas. Dvojdílný komplet s téměř 1300 ilustracemi a fotografiemi. Kniha na celý život v latině, češtině a angličtině. Pracovníci Anatomického ústavu 1. LF UK v Praze tak navazují na bohatou tradici české anatomie. V prvním dílu atlasu je obsaženo 476 ilustrací anatomie horní a dolní končetiny a stěny trupu. Vždy je uveden nejprve skelet, pak jeho spoje a klouby, dále svaly a nakonec poloha a průběh nervů a cév v rámci topografické anatomie. Atlas tvoří anatomické obrazy a schémata (413) a snímky (63) pořízené některou ze zobrazovacích metod (RTG, CT, MRI). Anatomické útvary jsou popsány v mezinárodní Terminologia Anatomica (1998) a každou ilustraci doprovází vysvětlující text v latině, češtině a angličtině. Je připojen slovník nejčastějších latinských anatomických termínů a jejich překlad do češtiny a angličtiny. Didaktická a přehledná kniha je určena medikům a lékařům všech oborů, studentům přírodních věd i mnohým pracovníkům nelékařských zdravotnických oborů. Ocení ji jistě i výtvarníci, pracovníci v oblasti tělesné výchovy a sportu a v mnoha dalších odvětvích. Je využit bohatý obrazový materiál z archivu Ústavu, který jeho výtvarníci zhotovili na podkladě originálních preparátů připravených anatomy několika generací, počínaje rokem 1915. Řada těchto ilustrací nebyla dosud publikována moderními reprodukčními technikami. V současné době bylo možné se k nim vrátit, převést je do elektronické podoby a s pomocí počítačového zpracování obrazu je restaurovat, doplnit a připravit k barevné reprodukci. Atlas tak úročí mnohaletou historii pražské anatomické školy, která byla vždy spojena s přípravou anatomických ilustrací profesionálními výtvarníky. Zároveň byla použita řada nových originálních ilustrací doplněných o snímky získané moderními zobrazovacími metodami. * * * The first volume of this atlas is dedicated to anatomy of the upper and lower limb and body wall. The individual chapters start with description of the skeleton followed by joints and muscles, and finally is shown the course of nerves and vessels in the topographical context. In total, the atlas contains 476 images, of which 413 are anatomical images and schemes and 63 are results of medical imaging (X-ray, CT, MRI). Anatomical entities are described using current international terminology, Terminologia Anatomica (1998). Each plate is accompanied by explanatory text in Czech/Latin and English, to increase its versatility for students of different backgrounds. Attached is also a glossary of most frequently used Greco-Latin anatomical terms with their Czech and English equivalents. The atlas is mainly destined for students of medicine, who are learning anatomy also through the study of images and drawing, for physicians of various specializations, students of natural sciences as well as those working in non-medical health related occupations.

Originally published in 1918 by the Talbot Press in Dublin, two years after his execution by the British Government for his involvement in the 1916 Easter Rising, Some Poems of Roger Casement has long been a collector’s item. In life and in death, Roger Casement appears to contain many contradictions: decorated British diplomat, Irish Protestant and martyred Irish nationalist. He was a humanitarian, essayist and sometime poet, a public gentleman and a private lover. Over the years, Roger Casement’s ghost has been the subject of endless controversies, co-opted into both the queer liberation movement in Ireland and the Republican movement. Predator or saviour, traitor or hero, maligned martyr or gay icon? The question depends on who you ask, and what aspects of Casement’s life they choose to hold in focus, or to dismiss as a lie. —SEÁN HEWITTIncludes a specially commissioned introduction by Seán Hewitt as well as the original 1918 introduction, written by Casement’s cousin, Gertrude Parry.

FOREWORD BY TOM HARDYI fight not just for myself, but for the Gracies... In the heat of the moment, how do you control your emotions and master your thinking?How do you suffer through hardship and grow through failure?How do you develop quiet inner grace?Ten-time Brazilian jiu-jitsu World Champion and former MMA World Champion, Roger Gracie is a martial arts legend and widely considered to be the greatest practitioner of Brazilian jiu-jitsu of all time. His grandfather, the great Carlos Gracie, was the architect of modern day Brazilian jiu-jitsu and for Roger, growing up in the famous Gracie family, every conversation seemed to be about fighting. Within this family of supermen, this self-contained, once chubby kid promised little; in fact, nobody expected Roger to be the warrior he'd later become. But once he had made up his mind as a teenager to become the greatest, Roger's star was firmly aligned with his purpose. Over time, he gradually became unstoppable, both in his thirst for jiu-jitsu knowledge and in his single-mindedness to reach mastery, just as his grandfather had done before him. For the first time, in The Warrior Mindset, Gracie shares secrets and lessons from a career of fighting at the highest level. Going far beyond the mat, this hard-won wisdom is applicable to everyone from any background and in any walk of life who longs to find strength, courage, health, and peace.

'Very beautiful and illuminating' Mariella Frostrup Edward Brooke-Hitching, author of the international bestseller The Phantom Atlas delivers an atlas unlike any other. The Devil’s Atlas is an illustrated guide to the heavens, hells and lands of the dead as imagined throughout history by cultures and religions around the world. Packed with colourful maps, paintings and captivating stories, the reader is taken on a compelling tour of the geography, history and supernatural populations of the afterworlds of cultures around the globe. Whether it’s the thirteen heavens of the Aztecs, the Chinese Taoist netherworld of ‘hungry ghosts’, or the ‘Hell of the Flaming Rooster’ of Japanese Buddhist mythology (in which sinners are tormented by an enormous fire-breathing cockerel), The Devil’s Atlas gathers together a wonderful variety of beliefs and representations of life after death. These afterworlds are illustrated with an unprecedented collection of images, ranging from the marvellous ‘infernal cartography’ of the European Renaissance artists attempting to map the structured Hell described by Dante and the decorative Islamic depictions of Paradise to the various efforts to map the Garden of Eden and the spiritual vision paintings of nineteenth-century mediums.The Devil’s Atlas accompanies beautiful images with a highly readable trove of surprising facts and narratives, from the more inventive torture methods awaiting sinners, to colourful eccentric catalogues of demons, angels and assorted death deities. A traveller’s guide to worlds unseen, The Devil’s Atlas is a fascinating study of the boundless capacity of human invention, a visual chronicle of man’s hopes, fears and fantasies of what lies beyond.

A towering philosophical novel that is the summation of her Objectivist philosophy, Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged is the saga of the enigmatic John Galt, and his ambitious plan to 'stop the motor of the world', published in Penguin Modern Classics.Opening with the enigmatic question 'Who is John Galt?', Atlas Shrugged envisions a world where the 'men of talent' - the great innovators, producers and creators - have mysteriously disappeared. With the US economy now faltering, businesswoman Dagny Taggart is struggling to get the transcontinental railroad up and running. For her John Galt is the enemy, but as she will learn, nothing in this situation is quite as it seems. Hugely influential and grand in scope, this story of a man who stopped the motor of the world expounds Rand's controversial philosophy of Objectivism, which champions competition, creativity and human greatness. Ayn Rand (1905-82), born Alisa Rosenbaum in St. Petersburg, Russia, emigrated to America with her family in January 1926, never to return to her native land. Her novel The Fountainhead was published in 1943 and eventually became a bestseller. Still occasionally working as a screenwriter, Rand moved to New York City in 1951 and published Atlas Shrugged in 1957. Her novels espoused what came to be called Objectivism, a philosophy that champions capitalism and the pre-eminence of the individual. If you enjoyed Atlas Shrugged, you might like Rand's The Fountainhead, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.'A writer of great power ... she writes brilliantly, beautifully, bitterly'The New York Times'Atlas Shrugged ... is a celebration of life and happiness'Alan Greenspan

Following the sad death of Stuart Baker, the creator of Rail Atlas Great Britain and Ireland, in 2020, we were fortunate that another fine railway cartographer, Joe Brown, agreed to complete the work that Stuart had begun, to revise what became the 15th edition. However, the railway network of Great Britain and Ireland is always changing and never static and revised editions of this atlas are required on a regular basis; the rebuilding of the line from Oxford towards Cambridge and the reinstatement of the Foynes branch in Ireland being examples of some of the additions to this new edition. Fortunately, Joe Brown has agreed to take on this work and this 16th edition will be the first one to be fully edited and revised by him. As with all the previous editions, the Atlas has been fully revised and updated whilst retaining the convenient format of mapping where each page overlaps with that on adjoining pages to make it easier to follow a long-distance route. Where appropriate, additional detailed inset maps have been drawn to show the complex railway developments in metropolitan areas such as Nottingham and Manchester. While some minor changes to the layout have been made, Rail Atlas Great Britain and Ireland remains true to the standards of clarity and accuracy which were the hallmarks of its creator that have made the Atlas an essential work of reference for both railway professionals and enthusiasts since it was first published in the 1970s.
