Devil’s Fire, Southern Cross - Jeffrey Cox

A fast-paced and absorbing read of the final months of the crucial Guadalcanal-Solomons Campaign during the Pacific War by esteemed World War II historian Jeffrey Cox. This page-turning history examines the closing months of the vital campaign which ultimately determined the successful conclusion of the Pacific War for the Allies. But it had not been a smooth process. The campaign continued in fits and starts with both the US Navy and the Imperial Japanese Navy making crucial errors. But as the pendulum of war swung, there was one distinct advantage to the Allies. This was the successful efforts by the United States Army Signals Intelligence Section and the Navy Communication Special Unit to monitor, intercept, decode and translate Japanese messages. It was thanks in part to this intelligence breakthrough that victory was secured at the Battles of Empress Augusta Bay and Cape St. George as well as the bitterly contested Bougainville invasion. But it was also due to improvements in strategic and tactical doctrine on the part of the US Navy, so much so that the Battle of Cape St. George was dubbed the almost textbook-perfect battle. At the start of the Guadalcanal-Solomons Campaign the US Navy was the underdog. By its conclusion, US naval commanders had come of age. Combining first-rate scholarly research with a novelist’s flair for the dramatic, Jeff Cox concludes his brilliant quartet on this key campaign.

Children Under Fire - John Woodrow Cox

Longlisted for the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award for Nonfiction * Winner of the Goddard Riverside Stephan Russo Book Prize for Social JusticeBased on the acclaimed series—a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize—an intimate account of the devastating effects of gun violence on our nation’s children, and a call to action for a new way forwardIn 2017, seven-year-old Ava in South Carolina wrote a letter to Tyshaun, an eight-year-old boy from Washington, DC. She asked him to be her pen pal; Ava thought they could help each other. The kids had a tragic connection—both were traumatized by gun violence. Ava’s best friend had been killed in a campus shooting at her elementary school, and Tyshaun’s father had been shot to death outside of the boy’s elementary school. Ava’s and Tyshaun’s stories are extraordinary, but not unique. In the past decade, 15,000 children have been killed from gunfire, though that number does not account for the kids who weren’t shot and aren’t considered victims but have nevertheless been irreparably harmed by gun violence.In Children Under Fire, John Woodrow Cox investigates the effectiveness of gun safety reforms as well as efforts to manage children’s trauma in the wake of neighborhood shootings and campus massacres, from Columbine to Marjory Stoneman Douglas. Through deep reporting, Cox addresses how we can effect change now, and help children like Ava and Tyshaun. He explores their stories and more, including a couple in South Carolina whose eleven-year-old son shot himself, a Republican politician fighting for gun safety laws, and the charlatans infiltrating the school safety business.In a moment when the country is desperate to better understand and address gun violence, Children Under Fire offers a way to do just that, weaving wrenching personal stories into a critical call for the United States to embrace practical reforms that would save thousands of young lives. *A Newsweek Favorite Book of 2021 *An NPR 2021 "Books We Love" selection *A Washington Post Notable Work of Nonfiction *A Kirkus "2021''s Best, Most Urgent Books of Current Affairs" selection

Stavebnice - Paul Cox

Kniha Paula Coxe Stavebnice (2018) je záznamem přípravy souborné výstavy autorova díla v pařížském Centre Georges Pompidou z roku 2005. Vychází z autorova blogu, který si při této příležitosti založil. Paul Cox byl původně architektem, v současné době se věnuje ilustraci a grafickému designu. Postupné zapisování průběhu vzniku výstavy odhaluje specifické strategie, které Cox ve svém ilustrátorském a výtvarném díle využívá. Subtilní propojování témat a rozsáhlá platnost zjišťovaných spojitostí může být přínosem pro každého tvůrce. Není příliš titulů, které se věnují teorii ilustrace, a jen velmi málo takových, které by byly inspirativní a dokázaly hovořit o různých přístupech k práci. Pro studenty výtvarných oborů i širší veřejnost je vydání tohoto titulu výjimečnou příležitostí, jak se seznámit s knihou, která se skutečně věnuje ilustraci a není "jen" něčím katalogem.

Cox - Christoph Ransmayr

Nejmocnější muž světa, čínský císař Čchien-lung, známý také jako Pán času, pozve slavného hodináře 18. století Alistera Coxe na svůj dvůr v Pekingu. Právě tam, v srdci Zakázaného města, má Angličan sestrojit hodiny, které by dokázaly měřit věčnost. Cox, který vidí příležitost uskutečnit svůj dávný sen a uctít památku své zesnulé milované dcery, se pouští do práce, i když ví, že úkol se nedá splnit. Román Cox aneb Běh času, oplývající bohatou imaginací a psaný barvitým jazykem, je strhujícím důkazem autorovy schopnosti proměnit poutavý příběh v působivé a intenzivní dílo. Nevypráví jen o setkání dvou mužů, z nichž jeden je izolován mocí a druhý žalem, ale především jde o hluboké zkoumání pomíjivosti a virtuózní ukázku toho, jak vyprávění samo může překonat čas.

Southern Peloponnese Sunflower Walking Guide - Michael Cullen

The go-to Southern Peloponnese travel guide for discovering the best walks and car tours. Strap on your boots and discover the Southern Peloponnese on foot with the Sunflower Southern Peloponnese travel guide. And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours. The Sunflower Southern Peloponnese guide is indispensable for hiking in the Peloponnese or seeing the Peloponnese by car. There are hidden landscapes throughout mainland Greece, but the region which packs the most variety into the smallest space is the Peloponnese. From the beaches of Arcadia to the fir forests of Mt Parnon, from the olive groves of Kalamata to the pyramidal peak of Prophet Elijah, from classical Sparta to medieval Mani, this compact semi-island has it all. Though the ancients called it ''the island of Pelops'', after their mythical king, this three-fingered landmass is joined to the mainland by a narrow isthmus at Corinth. Only in the 19th century was a canal finally cut through the isthmus, but it retains the cultural diversity and spectacular scenery of the mainland.Because there''s so much to discover, the author has drawn an east-west line roughly through the middle of the Peloponnese, and limited the book to the southern half. By good fortune, this contains its highest mountain range (Mt Taygetus), its finest Byzantine chapels and medieval forts (in the Mani), its wildest seascapes (Capes Tainaron and Maleas), its largest forest (Mt Parnon) and, arguably, some of its loveliest beaches (Pylos, Kiparissi and Elafonisos, to name just a few.Whatever your age or ability we''ve got some glorious walks and car tours to ensure you have a memorable holiday in the southern Peloponnese.Inside the Sunflower Southern Peloponnese guide book you''ll find:50 long and short walks for all ages and abilities - each walk is graded so you can easily match your ability to the level of walkTopographical walking maps - give you a clear sense of the surrounding terrain with a scale of 1:50 000Free downloadable gps tracks - for the techiesSatnav guidance to walk starts for motorists 5 car tours and fold-out touring map - for easy reference on your tour Strolls to idyllic picnic spots - enjoy our recommendations for where to picnic along the wayTimetables for public transport - ideal if you want to link two walks or avoid hiring a car on your holidayOnline update service for the latest informationWhether you tour the islands by car or explore on foot, we look forward to showing you around.Â

Southern Tenerife and La Gomera Sunflower Walking Guide - Noel Rochford

The go-to Southern Tenerife and La Gomera travel guide for discovering the best walks and car tours.  Discover La Gomera and Southern Tenerife on foot with the Sunflower Southern Tenerife and La Gomera travel guide. And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours. This new 9th edition of Southern Tenerife and La Gomera, indispensable for hiking and seeing the islands by car, has been carefully revised on the ground just prior to publication; for instance, it includes a map of the devastating fire damage on the cumbre dorsal in Tenerife. We are pleased to have the collaboration of Jan Kostura on this new edition. He was on Tenerife during the fires and on Gomera subsequently, and he guides on both islands a couple of times a year. Thanks to him the Guergues walk, which was closed to walkers illegally, has been replaced by a new but similar route further north. The book is for those staying on La Gomera or in the south of Tenerife within easy reach of the Gomera ferry. Since the two islands are just a 35-minute ferry ride apart, the book covers walks and tours on both. There are car tours with picnic suggestions ranging all over both islands, with pull-out touring maps and plans for the larger conurbations.Walks are described throughout the whole of La Gomera, while for Tenerife there are walks in the south and west. All walks are illustrated with newly drawn 1:50,000 topo maps based on OpenStreet mapping. GPS tracks are available for all the walks, and there are satnav coordinates to the starting points. All ‘official’ signposted and waymarked government trails have been highlighted and numbered on the walking maps – a real plus: if a walker comes across a signpost for a route not fully described in Noel’s text, it can still be used as a short- (or long-!)cut. (Note: those going to Tenerife for a long walking holiday, who will be based in the south, should ideally have this book and Landscapes of Tenerife.)Area covered: The book is divided into two parts. The major emphasis is on exploring the whole of La Gomera by car or on foot. But the Tenerife section of the book is also packed with suggestions: there are tours (from Playa de las Américas/Los Cristianos) covering the whole of Tenerife by car, as well as the best walking in Tenerife’s south and west.Whatever your age or ability we’ve got some glorious walks and car tours to ensure you have a memorable holiday in Gomera and southern Tenerife.Inside the Sunflower Southern Tenerife and La Gomera guide book you’ll find:70 long and short walks for all ages and abilities – each walk is graded so you can easily match your ability to the level of walkTopographical walking maps – give you a clear sense of the surrounding terrainFree downloadable gps tracks – for the techiesSatnav guidance to walk starts for motorists 6 car tours and fold-out touring map – for easy reference on your tour Strolls to idyllic picnic spots – enjoy our recommendations for where to picnic along the wayTimetables for public transport – ideal if you want to link two walks or avoid hiring a car on your holidayOnline update service for the latest informationPlans of San Sebastián (La Gomera), Playa de las Américas, Los Cristianos (Tenerife) are also includedWhether you tour La Gomera and Southern Tenerife by car or explore on foot, we look forward to showing you around.

Why Does E=mc2? - Brian Cox, Forshaw Jeff

The international bestseller: an introduction to the theory of relativity by the eminent physicists Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw What does E=mc2 actually mean? Dr. Brian Cox and Professor Jeff Forshaw go on a journey to the frontier of twenty-first century science to unpack Einstein''s famous equation. Explaining and simplifying notions of energy, mass, and light-while exploding commonly held misconceptions-they demonstrate how the structure of nature itself is contained within this equation. Along the way, we visit the site of one of the largest scientific experiments ever conducted: the now-famous Large Hadron Collider, a gigantic particle accelerator capable of re-creating conditions that existed fractions of a second after the Big Bang. A collaboration between one of the youngest professors in the United Kingdom and a distinguished popular physicist, Why Does E=mc2? is one of the most exciting and accessible explanations of the theory of relativity.

The Great Regeneration - Dorn Cox

In the age of climate change and the ongoing battles around how we use land to grow food and rear livestock, can an emerging group of visionary farmers utilise new technology to help create a truly communal vision of regenerative agriculture that is networked, engaged, and transformative – and ultimately a force for good in the natural world?In The Great Regeneration, farmer-technologist Dorn Cox and author-activist Courtney White explore this unique, groundbreaking research which is aimed at reclaiming the ground where science and agriculture meet as a shared human endeavour.The Great Regeneration explores the critical function that open-source technology can have in promoting agroecological systems, through data-sharing and networking. If these systems are brought together, there is potential to revolutionise how we manage food production and natural systems around the world, decentralising and deindustrialising the structures of production and governance that have long dominated the agricultural landscape.In this important book, Dorn Cox and Courtney White present a simple choice: we can allow ourselves to be dominated by this new technology, or we can harness its potential and use it to understand and improve our shared environment. The choices made today will affect the generations to come, and The Great Regeneration shows how, together, we can create positive and lasting change.

The Deadline Effect - Christopher Cox

'I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.' So said author Douglas Adams - but what if there was a way of making deadlines work for you and using them to ensure others provide you with what you want when you want it? In Christopher Cox's brilliant new book, he looks at the impact deadlines have on us, and how we can use them to deliver the best results for all parties. Social scientists have revealed that most negotiations run right up to the deadline before a deal is finally struck. What they also discovered was that this deadline effect usually results in a worse deal for both parties. Cox shows you how, instead, the deadline effect can be used to bring about success not failure. The truth is that most of us think of deadlines all wrong. They aren’t immutable laws of nature; they are a game we can play - and win. This book will show you the strategies different workplaces have come up with to do just that. They are the businesses and individuals who are rehabilitating the deadline effect, taking the urgency it provides and jettisoning all the down-to-the-wire nonsense. Based on his own experience as a magazine commissioning editor, where coaxing writers to deliver on time is an art form, he also embeds himself in other businesses, such as a ski patrol ahead of the first day of the winter season, to see how they meet deadlines that cannot be missed. Above all, this book is an argument to embrace the power of deadlines. When time is limited, people are less wasteful, more focused, productive and creative. It’s a liberating realisation: excellence and timeliness are not at odds, and the deadline effect can be highly effective.

Diesel and Electric Motive Power on the Southern 1980s to Present - David Goodyear

With the era of British Railways’ transition from steam to diesel and electric influencing the country-wide fleets of trains beyond the 1970’s, the Southern proved no exception to such, integrated within its flotillas of commuter electric trains. Southern Region motive power was territorial, thanks to the requirement for electric trains to remain within the live third rail network. Remaining pockets of non-electrified routes provided the last bastions of diesel-electric units and locomotive hauled trains, not only in Dorset, Sussex and Hampshire but also especially along the South West mainline to Exeter. Although with a limited range of Class 33, 47, 50 and 73 locomotives serving the passenger sector in the 1980’s, there remained interesting passenger workings to note such as that along Weymouth Quay or through the rural tranquillity of Devon’s countryside to Barnstaple. Railfreight ensured a wider variety of locomotives within in the Region. Standard colours of B.R. blue and grey livery may have been monotonous but the bright and clean Network SouthEast colours were welcomed, along with the much needed emphasis on running clean and punctual services as part of the Network SouthEast ethos. Brand new fleets of trains in the Southern area continue to offer the railway enthusiast and photographer the chance to study the impact of privatisation in the modern railway. Fortunately we have several preserved lines in the Southern area which perfectly capture the character of the traditional Southern branch line in the days of heritage diesels.

Činí tak prostřednictvím různých dotazníků, cvičení a námětů k zamyšlení, které mají vést k sebereflexi a zároveň k tomu, že terapeut si vede zápisky, které shrnují jeho vlastní práci. Kottlerovým cílem je, aby si terapeut-čtenář ujasnil, co se mu na vlastní práci lidí a nelíbí, v souvislosti s tím si stanovil cíle na zlepšení a vytvořil plán změny, takže jeho vlastní práce bude efektivnější a zároveň jej bude více uspokojovat. Bez ohledu na míru jejich zkušenosti má tato kniha terapeutům pomoci: odhalovat vlastní zdroje stresu a konfliktů; oživovat motivaci a kreativitu; pracovat s protipřenosem nebo s intenzivními vztahy; léčit osobní rány; zlepšovat klinické dovednosti; zvyšovat efektivitu; zvyšovat osobní vliv; přenášet terapeutické dovednosti do osobního života; integrovat osobní a profesní dimenzi života tak, že kvalita terapeutova života bude vyšší. Kniha je určena pro psychoterapeuty, socioterapeuty, ergoterapeuty, arteterapeuty a další odborníky v pomáhajících profesích, kteří terapeuticky pracují s klienty. Jeffrey A. Kottler v průběhu své profesní kariéry působil jako pedagog, poradce a psychoterapeut ve školách, zdravotnických zařízeních a na univerzitách. V současné době je vedoucím katedry poradenství na Kalifornské státní univerzitě v americkém Fullertonu. Je autorem více než 80 knih, které byly přeloženy do 15 jazyků. Portál vydal jeho knihy Mumie u jídelního stolu (2003) a Nezdařená terapie (2006), které napsal či editoval s Jonem Carlsonem.
