As extraordinary an achievement as Cryptonomicon, Quicksilver is Neal Stephenson''s first novel in his acclaimed Baroque Cycle.Neal Stephenson follows his international bestseller, the WWII thriller Cryptonomicon, with a novel set in the 16th and 17th centuries, in a world of war, scientific, religious and political turmoil. With a cast of characters that includes Newton, Leibniz, Christopher Wren, Charles II, Cromwell and the young Benjamin Franklin, Stephenson again shows his extraordinary ability to get inside a place and time; as he did for the futures of his science fiction (Snowcrash,The Diamond Age) and for WWII (Cryptonomicon), here he does for the England of the Civil War and the Europe of the Wars of Religion and the Scientific Revolution. Quicksilver is yet another tour-de-force from a writer who is simply unique.

Daniel Waterhouse has returned to England, where he joins forces with his friend Isaac Newton to hunt down a shadowy group attempting to blow up Natural Philosophers with ''Infernal Devices'' - time bombs. As Daniel and Newton conspire, an increasingly vicious struggle is waged for England''s Crown: who will take control when the ailing queen dies?Tories and Whigs clash as one faction jockeys to replace Queen Anne with ''The Pretender'' James Stuart, and the other promotes the Hanoverian dynasty of Princess Caroline. Meanwhile, a long-simmering dispute between Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz comes to a head, with potentially cataclysmic consequences.Wildly inventive, brilliantly conceived, The System of the World is the final volume in Neal Stephenson''s hugely ambitious and compelling saga.

Neal Stephenson's sweeping, prescient new novel transports readers to a near-future world where the greenhouse effect has inexorably resulted in a whirling-dervish troposphere of superstorms, rising sea levels, global flooding, merciless heat waves, and virulent, deadly pandemics. One man has a Big Idea for reversing global warming, a master plan perhaps best described as "elemental." But will it work? And just as important, what are the consequences for the planet and all of humanity should it be applied? As only Stephenson can, Termination Shock sounds a clarion alarm, ponders potential solutions and dire risks, and wraps it all together in an exhilarating, witty, mind-expanding speculative adventure.

Druhý díl trilogie BAROKNÍ CYKLUS, se otevírá v roce 1689 a zastihuje oba své hlavní protagonisty, Elizu, bývalou odalisku ze sultánova paláce, nyní hraběnku z Qwghlmu, a dobrodruha Jacka Shaftoea, krále vagabundů, v zoufalé situaci a zcela bez prostředků. Elizu připravil o jmění získané obchodem korzár Jean Bart a intriky francouzského dvora, Jack se vlastní zásluhou ocitl jako veslařský otrok na Berberském pobřeží. Ale zoufalství plodí zoufalé a smělé nápady, a tak se oba nezávisle na sobě vrhají do nových plánů, jejichž výsledky a zisky jsou značně nejisté. Neal Stephenson zručně splétá dvě vlákna rozmáchlého příběhu, která se na pozadí historických událostí, jež pomáhaly formovat náš nový věk, letmo dotýkají a zase rozcházejí. Současně s tím se odvíjí spor Newtona a Leibnitze, jeden z největších konfliktů v dějinách vědy.

Píše se rok 1714. Daniel Waterhouse, přírodní filozof, který byl u všeho důležitého, když se rodily vědy, jak je známe dnes, se na naléhavou žádost z vysokých míst vrací z kolonie v Massachusetts do rodné Anglie a zjišťuje, že nic není jako dřív. Churavějící královna Anna, poslední Stuartovna, leží na smrtelné posteli a její následnictví zdaleka není jasné, politické a náboženské spory nadále doutnají, vliv Královské společnosti upadá, protože Isaac Newton zabředá čím dál hlouběji do alchymie, hnán touhou po záhadném Šalamounově zlatě, novou anglickou měnu ohrožuje penězokaz Jack Razič, nechvalně známý Jack Shaftoe, král vagabundů, a z druhé strany Kanálu to vše potutelně sleduje snad nesmrtelný Král Slunce. Daniel by nejraději byl jen pozorovatelem dění, ale pekelné stroje a další úklady, které mu někdo staví do cesty, jej nutí ponořit se do křivolakých londýnských uliček, aby rozpletl nitky a zjistil, kdo za tím vším stojí. Změna je totiž ve vzduchu a v sázce příliš mnoho.Neal Stephenson předestírá v Systému světa, závěrečné části trilogie Barokní cyklus, která získala v roce 2005 cenu Locus pro nejlepší román science fiction, jedinečný obraz doby, kdy se starý svět mění v nový.

Melisanda Stokesová je odbornice na starověké jazyky. Když se na chodbě univerzity náhodou sejde s Tristanem Lyonsem, jenž se zabývá vojenskou rozvědkou, netuší, že se ocitla na prahu událostí, které naruby obrátí nejen její život, ale i lidské dějiny. Mladík jí totiž navrhne cosi neuvěřitelného: aby mu pomocí překladů pečlivě tajených dávných dokumentů pomohla dokázat, že magie kdysi existovala a byla provozována. Až příchod osvícenství a moderní vědy ji oslabil a nakonec zcela zničil. Magie podle pramenů zmizela v roce 1851 – a Tristan je odhodlán nejen přijít na to, proč se tak stalo, ale pokud možno také magii vzkřísit z mrtvých a využít ji k rozvědným a vojenským účelům. Tak vznikne D.O.D.O. – Detašované oddělení diachronních operací, které přijde na jeden velmi nadějný, ale také velmi znepokojující způsob využití magie, jenž může lidstvu přinést mnoho užitku, ale i mnoho škody. Román, do kterého Neal Stephenson vnesl nápaditost, intelekt a sofistikovanost a Nicole Gallandová lidskou vřelost, humor a vypravěčské nadání, oživí nejen magii, ale taky vaši víru v nemožné, která byla odjakživa na sci-fi a fantastice tím největším lákadlem.

Under cloudless blue skies, the Oakwood Cemetery Annex in Montgomery, Alabama hosts the largest Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemetery in the United States. Most of the graves contain young RAF trainee pilots killed during their flying training at nearby Maxwell and Gunter airfields during the Second World War. However, there is another grave, located at the edge of the plot, not from the early 1940s but, from 1954\. The grave marks the final resting place of a 44-year-old senior RAF officer, Air Commodore Geoffrey Stephenson CBE. It begs the questions who was he and why is he buried there?This book sets out to answer both these questions. As a result, this is the remarkable story of not only Stephenson’s life but the people, planes and places that would leave an indelible mark on a seasoned fighter pilot. After growing up in Lincolnshire and Ireland, 18-year-old Stephenson joined the RAF in 1928 alongside Douglas Bader who would become a life-long friend. After leaving Cranwell, the pair both joined 23 Squadron. In the 1930s, Stephenson rose through the ranks to command 19 Squadron, a Duxford-based Spitfire unit, that would see his baptism of fire over Dunkirk in late May 1940\. Following the ...

George Stephenson is the ultimate selfmade man: born in the pit village of Wylam, near Newcastle, and skipping any education to start work, his inventions would change the very nature of the world.From the moment he began work in the pit at the tender age of ten, he showed a natural talent for mending and inventing machines, slowly rising to become the colliery’s resident engineer. However, he struggled to break through the class prejudices of the time; indeed, Sir Humphrey Davy, later President of the Royal Society, considered Stephenson (then an unknown pitman) ‘a thief and not a clever thief’. This early battle was only one of many that Stephenson waged against the establishment.Even so, Stephenson went on to build the world’s first public railways, the Stockton and Darlington in 1825 and the Liverpool–Manchester in 1830. Much is known of these achievements and of his famous creation, Rocket, yet little is known of the man himself. In George Stephenson a colourful portrait is painted of the self-taught and often testy Geordie, whose Victorian invention is now the backbone of every nation on the planet.

Kniha amerického transpersonálního psychologa se zabývá zásadním obratem v životě každého muže - a sice jeho přechodem z dětství do dospělosti. Toto vývojové období se podle nejnovějších výzkumů ukazuje být stejně klíčové pro další rozvoj zdravého duševního růstu jako rané a pozdější dětství. Integrální součástí dospívání mladých mužů byly proto ve většině tradičních kultur různé přechodové rituály a iniciace. Autor otevírá svou strhující knihu popisem situace městské rizikové mládeže v USA a zamýšlí se nad příčinami i formami vzdoru a nepřizpůsobivosti dospívajících chlapců. Ukazuje na spojitosti mezi absencí tradičních přechodových rituálů a rizikovým či delikventním jednáním mladistvých. Objasňuje, do jaké míry naše společnost sebe samu i své děti ochuzuje tím, že je připravuje o možnost ritualizovaného přechodu do dospělosti. V dalších kapitolách pak autor rekonstruuje přechodové rituály a obřady mužské dospělosti tak, aby odpovídaly naší moderní době. Stephenson se inspiruje různými domorodými tradicemi a snaží se tyto v dnešní (post)moderní společnosti chybějící rituály kompenzovat specifickými technikami, které kromě vyprávění příběhů a rozmanitých uměleckých technik zahrnují také například indiánskou saunu, hledání vize, různé způsoby modlitby, práce s živly a další.

By the end of John Cecil Stephenson’s art school training – first a scholarship to Leeds Art School then to The Royal College of Art – he was in a position to produce still lives, landscapes and portraits in a professional capacity. Like many painters of his generation, who had received similarly conventional instruction, he became a competent teacher, appointed in 1922, as Head of Art at The Northern Polytechnic. In this mould Stephenson might have remained a largely undistinguished painter – but in the early 1930s he found himself at the centre of a group of artists with avant-garde credentials, and his own art underwent a remarkable transformation.  By 1934 he was exhibiting groundbreaking works such as Mask (CAT. 7), at the 7 & 5 Society, and in 1937 was a key contributor to the watershed publication and exhibition Circle, where his work was showcased alongside that of luminaries such as Kazimir Malevich, Le Corbusier, Fernand Léger, Alberto Giacometti and Pablo Picasso.

A comprehensive and inspiring collection of essays by Larry Neal, a founder of the seminal Black Arts Movement. "The Black Arts Movement is radically opposed to any concept of the artist that alienates him from his community. Black Art is the aesthetic and spiritual sister of the Black Power concept. As such, it envisions an art that speaks directly to the needs and aspirations of Black America." — Larry Neal Growing up in Philadelphia, Neal was surrounded by Bebop music and writing. He culled inspiration and teachings from Ralph Ellison, Langston Hughes, and the leaders of the Harlem Renaissance. After studying folklore at the University of Pennsylvania, Neal became a prolific poet and critic, and he served as the arts editor for the Liberator where he published many of his essays about art. Neal encouraged artists to produce work that was not only politically engaged but also unapologetically rooted in the Black experience, and this message reverberated through African American literature, theater, music, and visual arts. He probed the notion of the Western art historical canon and challenged Black artists and writers to reshape artistic traditions.

''The Life of Herod The Great – like Hurston herself – is a masterpiece, a miracle, and a marvel.

In the tradition of The Glass Castle, Educated, and Heartland, Neal Wooten traces five decades of his dirt-poor, Alabama mountain family as the years and secrets coalesce.  Neal Wooten grew up in a tiny community atop Sand Mountain, Alabama, where everyone was white and everyone was poor. Prohibition was still embraced. If you wanted alcohol, you had to drive to Georgia or ask the bootlegger sitting next to you in church. Tent revivals, snake handlers, and sacred harp music were the norm, and everyone was welcome as long as you weren’t Black, brown, gay, atheist, Muslim, a damn Yankee, or a Tennessee Vol fan. The Wooten''s lived a secret existence in a shack in the woods with no running water, no insulation, and almost no electricity. Even the school bus and mail carrier wouldn’t go there. Neal’s family could hide where they were, but not what they were. They were poor white trash. Cops could see it. Teachers could see it. Everyone could see it. Growing up, Neal was weaned on folklore legends of his grandfather—his quick wit, quick feet, and quick temper. He discovers how this volatile disposition led to a murder, a conviction, and ultimately to a ...

From ballroom dancers to bodybuilders, Slavin’s photographic diary of organizations in ’70s America captures both nuanced group dynamics and larger societal valuesIn the 1970s, photographer Neal Slavin traveled around the United States documenting groups and gatherings. From bingo players to ballroom dancers, bodybuilders, Star Trek conventions and religious congregations, Slavin photographed seemingly every imaginable organization that humans have dreamed up. While the pictures themselves are most often posed, Slavin has always asked that his subjects arrange themselves in front of the camera, allowing natural hierarchies, group dynamics and indications of status to emerge. Says Slavin of his process, “I walk a delicate line between giving general instructions and allowing the group free rein to express itself while I watch individuals who jockey for position, thrusting a shoulder in front of the next person or wearing the widest smile, while others recede into the background, who are posing only to be a part of something larger—the group. My role is to capture a complete image, incorporating the eccentricities of human behavior that have emerged naturally from the multitude of personalities … I want my work to affirm our self identity within our public persona; to affirm the joy of being together ...
