Munroe, Randall

The world's most entertaining and useless self-help guide from the brilliant mind behind the wildly popular webcomic xkcd, the bestsellers What If? and Thing Explainer, and What If? 2, coming September 13, 2022.For any task you might want to do, there's a right way, a wrong way, and a way so monumentally complex, excessive, and inadvisable that no one would ever try it. How To is a guide to the third kind of approach. It's full of highly impractical advice for everything from landing a plane to digging a hole.Bestselling author and cartoonist Randall Munroe explains how to predict the weather by analyzing the pixels of your Facebook photos. He teaches you how to tell if you're a baby boomer or a 90's kid by measuring the radioactivity of your teeth. He offers tips for taking a selfie with a telescope, crossing a river by boiling it, and powering your house by destroying the fabric of space-time. And if you want to get rid of the book once you're done with it, he walks you through your options for proper disposal, including dissolving it in the ocean, converting it to a vapor, using tectonic plates to subduct it into the Earth's mantle, or launching it into the Sun.By exploring the most complicated ways to do simple tasks, Munroe doesn't just make things difficult for himself and his readers. As he did so brilliantly in What If?, Munroe invites us to explore the most absurd reaches of the possible. Full of clever infographics and fun illustrations, How To is a delightfully mind-bending way to better understand the science and technology underlying the things we do every day.

A calling for Charlie Barnes

Ferris, Joshua

Named a best book of the year by NPR, Vogue, and the New York Times Book Review, the hilarious and profound new novel from National Book Award finalist Joshua Ferris is “a fine American novel about family, love, and a decent but flawed man trying to be better (Stephen King). Someone is telling the story of the life of Charlie Barnes, and it doesn't appear to be going well. Too often divorced, discontent with life's compromises and in a house he hates, this lifelong schemer and eternal romantic would like out of his present circumstances and into the American dream. But when the twin calamities of the Great Recession and a cancer scare come along to compound his troubles, his dreams dwindle further, and an infinite past full of forking paths quickly tapers to a black dot.Then, against all odds, something goes right for a change: Charlie is granted a second act. With help from his storyteller son, he surveys the facts of his life and finds his true calling where he least expects it—in a sacrifice that redounds with selflessness and love—at last becoming the man his son always knew he could be.A Calling for Charlie Barnes is a profound and tender portrait of a man whose desperate need to be loved is his downfall, and a brutally funny account of how that love is ultimately earned.

The strange death of europe immigration
Hoy -5% en libros

Murray, Douglas

The Sunday Times number one bestseller The Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide. Declining birth-rates, mass immigration and cultivated self-distrust and self-hatred have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their own comprehensive change as a society. This book is not only an analysis of demographic and political realities, but also an eyewitness account of a continent in self-destruct mode. It includes reporting from across the entire continent, from the places where migrants land to the places they end up, from the people who appear to welcome them in to the places which cannot accept them. Told from this first-hand perspective, and backed with impressive research and evidence, the book addresses the disappointing failure of multiculturalism, Angela Merkel's U-turn on migration, the lack of repatriation and the Western fixation on guilt. Murray travels to Berlin, Paris, Scandinavia, Lampedusa and Greece to uncover the malaise at the very heart of the European culture, and to hear the stories of those who have arrived in Europe from far away. In each chapter he also takes a step back to look at the bigger issues which lie behind a continent's death-wish, answering the question of why anyone, let alone an entire civilisation, would do this to themselves He ends with two visions of Europe - one hopeful, one pessimistic - which paint a picture of Europe in crisis and offer a choice as to what, if anything, we can do next.

Venezia, fine del Cinquecento: una città tentacolare e spietata in cui anche i muri hanno gli occhi, il doge usa il pugno di ferro e il Sant'Uffizio sospetta di tutti e non ci pensa due volte a mandare a chiamare un poveraccio e a dargli due tratti di corda. La Serenissima osserva, ascolta e condanna. Anche ingiustamente. Ed è proprio per sfuggire a un'accusa infondata che Michele, giovane muratore, è costretto a imbarcarsi su una galera lasciando tutto e senza nemmeno il tempo per salutare la sua bella moglie Bianca, appena diciassettenne. Bandito da Venezia, rematore su una nave che vaga per il Mediterraneo carica di zecchini e di spezie e senza speranza di ritornare a breve, Michele vivrà straordinarie avventure tra le onde, sulle isole e nei porti del mare nostrum, fino ad approdare nelle terre del Sultano. Per sopravvivere, con il pensiero sempre rivolto a Bianca, da ragazzo ignaro e inesperto dovrà farsi uomo astuto, coraggioso e forte. Nel frattempo, Bianca rimane completamente sola in città, tra i palazzi dei signori e il ghetto. Il suo temperamento tenace e orgoglioso dovrà scontrarsi con prove se possibile più dure di quelle toccate a Michele, e incontri non meno terribili e importanti l'attendono nel dedalo di vicoli e calli, tra i profumi intensi delle botteghe di speziali, quello del pane cotto nel forno di quartiere, il torso dell'acqua gelida in cui lavare i panni e i pagliericci pidocchiosi che sono il solo giaciglio per la povera gente.
