China's story is extraordinarily rich and dramatic. Now Michael Wood, one of the UK's pre-eminent historians, brings it all together in a major new one-volume history of China that is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand its burgeoning role in our world today.China is the oldest living civilisation on earth, but its history is still surprisingly little known in the wider world. Michael Wood's sparkling narrative, which mingles the grand sweep with local and personal stories, woven together with the author's own travel journals, is an enthralling account of China's 4000-year-old tradition, taking in life stationed on the Great Wall or inside the Forbidden City. The story is enriched with the latest archaeological and documentary discoveries; correspondence and court cases going back to the Qin and Han dynasties; family letters from soldiers in the real-life Terracotta Army; stories from Silk Road merchants and Buddhist travellers, along with memoirs and diaries of emperors, poets and peasants.In the modern era, the book is full of new insights, with the electrifying manifestos of the feminist revolutionaries Qiu Jin and He Zhen, extraordinary eye-witness accounts of the Japanese invasion, the Great Famine and the Cultural Revolution under Chairman Mao, and fascinating newly published sources for the great turning points in China's modern history, including the Tiananmen Square crisis of 1989, and the new order of President Xi Jinping.A compelling portrait of a single civilisation over an immense period of time, the book is full of intimate detail and colourful voices, taking us from the desolate Mongolian steppes to the ultra-modern world of Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong. It also asks what were the forces that have kept China together for so long? Why was China overtaken by the west after the 18th century? What lies behind China's extraordinary rise today? The Story of China tells a thrilling story of intense drama, fabulous creativity and deep humanity; a portrait of a country that will be of the greatest importance to the world in the twenty-first century.

'Superb... Beautifully written and thoroughly researched' - Guardian A beautifully illustrated travelogue, chronicling the life and work of one of the world greatest poets. Du Fu (712-70) is one of China’s greatest poets. His career coincided with periods of famine, war and huge upheaval, yet his secular philosophical vision, combined with his empathy for the common folk of his nation, ensured that he soon became revered. Like Shakespeare or Dante, his poetry resonates in a timeless manner that ensures it is always relevant and offers something new to the modern generation. Now, in this beautifully illustrated book, broadcaster and historian Michael Wood follows in his footsteps to try to understand the places that inspired Du Fu to write some of the most famous and best-loved poetry the world has known. The themes he wrote about – friendship, family, human suffering – are universal and in our troubled times are just as relevant as they were almost 1,300 years ago.

This mouth-watering collection features the finest (and rarest!) science fiction stories Wallace Wood ever drew - more than two dozen! Wood''s meticulously detailed, genre-defining brushwork introduces you to breathtaking planetary vistas, terrifying aliens, and sleek rocket ships surging with the power to conquer the stars. Our title story is a rarity that never appeared in any EC comic. Written and drawn for a 3-D comic that was canceled before it could be printed, we present it here in easy-on-the-eyes 2-D. Then, Wood''s most iconic story, ''My World'' is a stunning showcase of the preternatural talent and technique he brought to all his stories. Also included are his trilogy of Ray Bradbury adaptations - ''Home to Stay,'' ''There Will Come Soft Rains...'' and ''Mars Is Heaven!'' - plus ''He Walked Among Us,'' a ''what if...?'' variation on Bradbury''s ''The Man'' from The Illustrated Man. But that''s not all! An incredible science fiction bonus: Al Feldstein wrote many stories of people reaching from the beyond to right a wrong, but with this volume, in a twist worthy of the best of EC, he does the same himself! In 1955, the Comics Code rejected the second page of ''You, Rocket'' and forced EC to completely rewrite and redraw it. When the original art for that rejected page was rediscovered, one panel was missing. But Feldstein, in a middle-finger gesture to the Code and its heavy-handed censorship, wrote a new panel, restoring ''You, Rocket'' to what it was always meant to be. Sadly, he passed away before his final EC writing assignment was published. But here it is now, for the first time anywhere. Justice from beyond the grave. 26 stories in all, most scripted by EC legend Al Feldstein, plus in-depth commentary by EC experts Thommy Burns, Grant Geissman, and Jon Gothold. The Spawn Of Venus And Other Stories is the ultimate EC Wallace Wood science fiction collection.

Montale Santal Wood, 100 ml, Parfémované vody unisex, Montale Santal Wood je orientální dřevitá vůně pro ženy a muže s výrazným akordem santalového dřeva. Tato parfémovaná voda od francouzské značky parfémů, specifické zejména láskou k vůním z Orientu a Arábie a jejich kouzelné historii, nabízí nádhernou vůni santalového dřeva v originální kombinaci s mořskými a kořenitými tóny. Stejně jako všem vůním značky Montale i parfémované vodě Santal Wood vtiskl obdivovaný a tak trochu záhadný Pierre Montale originální tvářnost evokující zázračný elixír či vzácnou kouzelnou mast. Parfémovaná voda Santal Wood představuje jiskřivé trio koření – muškátového oříšku, černého pepře z Madagaskaru a kardamomu – ve spojení se vzácným santalovým dřevem a marockým cedrem. Jalovec, mořské tóny a mech doplňují celkovou svěží aromatickou kompozici. Stejně jako všechna vonná díla Pierra Montale i parfém Santal Wood je vytvořen z přírodních materiálů té nejvyšší kvality ve vysokých koncentracích, které zajišťují dlouhou trvalost vůní. Montale Santal Wood autenticky zachycuje vůni moře a kreativně ji doplňuje svěžími, kořenitými a dřevitými stránkami. Jako by zakladatel značky Montale a tvůrce všech parfémů v jejím portfoliu získal během svého působení v Saudské Arábii tajemné schopnosti orientálního kouzelníka, Pierre Montale stvořil vysoce přitažlivý parfém, který svého nositele doslova přenese na mořské pobřeží poblíž jalovcového lesa. Parfémovaná voda Montale Santal Wood se hodí na celý rok, ale nejosobitěji září na jaře. Jedná se o ideální denní parfém, který svému nositeli vždy poskytne originální kouzlo spojení luxusních dřevitých a svěže mořských tónů. Montale Santal Wood si navždy získá ženy a muže, kteří mají rádi mořské a dřevité vůně, zejména v nápaditých kompozicích. Vyzkoušet tuto parfémovanou vodu by měl také každý, kdo oceňuje skutečnou kvalitu v kombinaci s originalitou. Kromě úchvatných vůní s mistrovsky vyladěnými vonnými kompozicemi zaujmou všechny parfémy značky Montale také svým originálním balením. Designová stránka nadchne přímočarou čistou elegancí, v případě Santal Wood podtrženou příjemnou jemnou zlatorůžovou barvou, a unikátnost flakonům dodává také praktická volba materiálu. Pierre Montale originálně zvolil hliník, který zajišťuje parfémům dokonalou ochranu. Montale Santal Wood – vůně moře provázená kořením a luxusními dřevy.

''BRITAIN''S FINEST LIVING NATURE WRITER'' - THE TIMESA SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER and BBC Radio 4 ''Book of the Week'' from ''indisputably, one of the best nature-writers of his generation'' (Country Life) Written in diary format, The Wood is the story of English woodlands as they change with the seasons. Lyrical and informative, steeped in poetry and folklore, The Wood inhabits the mind and touches the soul.For four years John Lewis-Stempel managed Cockshutt wood, a particular wood - three and half acres of mixed woodland in south west Herefordshire - that stands as exemplar for all the small woods of England. John coppiced the trees and raised cows and pigs who roamed free there. This is the diary of the last year, by which time he had come to know it from the bottom of its beech roots to the tip of its oaks, and to know all the animals that lived there - the fox, the pheasants, the wood mice, the tawny owl - and where the best bluebells grew. For many fauna and flora, woods like Cockshutt are the last refuge. It proves a sanctuary for John too. To read The Wood is to be amongst its trees as the seasons change, following an easy path until, suddenly the view is broken by a screen of leaves, or your foot catches on a root, or a bird startles overhead. This is a wood you will never want to leave.
