The colony, it transpires, was once settled by a sect devoted to the mad Russian monk Rasputin, but there is even more hiding in the past than Frank’s team is aware of. Any hope of success hinges on their willingness to accept the fact that even their cutting-edge science has its limitsーand that the ancient wisdom of the Inuit people who once inhabited this eerie land is as essential as any serum. By the time Frank discovers that his mission has been compromisedーcrashed by a gang of reckless treasure huntersーhe will be in a brutal race against time.

新しい本, ノンフィクション, 英語で予約する, 洋書Shadow Divers - Robert Kurson (Random House Trade Paperbacks) 【紙書籍】 9780375760983

タイトル: Shadow Divers著者: Robert Kurson出版社: Random House Trade Paperbacks出版日: 2005年05月24日新しい本新古品・未使用品。出版社からの新着。New York Times Bestseller In the tradition of Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air and Sebastian Junger's The Perfect Storm comes a true tale of riveting adventure in which two weekend scuba divers risk everything to solve a great historical mystery-and make history themselves. For John Chatterton and Richie Kohler, deep wreck diving was more than a sport. Testing themselves against treacherous currents, braving depths that induced hallucinatory effects, navigating through wreckage as perilous as a minefield, they pushed themselves to their limits and beyond, brushing against death more than once in the rusting hulks of sunken ships. But in the fall of 1991, not even these courageous divers were prepared for what they found 230 feet below the surface, in the frigid Atlantic waters sixty miles off the coast of New Jersey: a World War II German U-boat, its ruined interior a macabre wasteland of twisted metal, tangled wires, and human bones-all buried under decades of accumulated sediment. No identifying marks were visible on the submarine or the few artifacts brought to the surface. No historian, expert, or government had a clue as to which U-boat the men had found. In fact, the official records all agreed that there simply could not be a sunken U-boat and crew at that location. Over the next six years, an elite team of divers embarked on a quest to solve the mystery. Some of them would not live to see its end. Chatterton and Kohler, at first bitter rivals, would be drawn into a friendship that deepened to an almost mystical sense of brotherhood with each other and with the drowned U-boat sailors-former enemies of their country. As the men's marriages frayed under the pressure of a shared obsession, their dives grew more daring, and each realized that he was hunting more than the identities of a lost U-boat and its nameless crew. Author Robert Kurson's account of this quest is at once thrilling and emotionally complex, and it is written with a vivid sense of what divers actually experience when they meet the dangers of the ocean's underworld. The story of Shadow Divers often seems too amazing to be true, but it all happened, two hundred thirty feet down, in the deep blue sea.

新しい本, ノンフィクション, 英語で予約する, 洋書How the Other Half Eats: The Untold Story of Food and Inequality in America - Priya Fielding-Singh (Little, Brown Spark) 【紙書籍】 9780316427258

タイトル: How the Other Half Eats: The Untold Story of Food and Inequality in America著者: Priya Fielding-Singh出版社: Little, Brown Spark出版日: 2023年05月02日新しい本新古品・未使用品。出版社からの新着。This important book "weaves lyrical storytelling and fascinating research into a compelling narrative" (San Francisco Chronicle) to look at dietary differences along class lines and nutritional disparities in America, illuminating exactly how inequality starts on the dinner plate. Inequality in America manifests in many ways, but perhaps nowhere more than in how we eat. From her years of field research, sociologist and ethnographer Priya Fielding-Singh brings us into the kitchens of dozens of families from varied educational, economic, and ethnoracial backgrounds to explore how--and why--we eat the way we do. We get to know four families intimately: the Bakers, a Black family living below the federal poverty line; the Williamses, a working-class white family just above it; the Ortegas, a middle-class Latinx family; and the Cains, an affluent white family. ​ Whether it's worrying about how far pantry provisions can stretch or whether there's enough time to get dinner on the table before soccer practice, all families have unique experiences that reveal their particular dietary constraints and challenges. By diving into the nuances of these families' lives, Fielding-Singh lays bare the limits of efforts narrowly focused on improving families' food access. Instead, she reveals how being rich or poor in America impacts something even more fundamental than the food families can afford: these experiences impact the very meaning of food itself. Packed with lyrical storytelling and groundbreaking research, as well as Fielding-Singh's personal experiences with food as a biracial, South Asian American woman, How the Other Half Eats illuminates exactly how inequality starts on the dinner plate. Once you've taken a seat at tables across America, you'll never think about class, food, and public health the same way again.

＜p＞＜strong＞A groundbreaking book about why the one thing we all fear＜/strong＞ー＜strong＞ambivalence＜/strong＞ー＜strong＞is the one thing we must accept to find lasting love.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞If Love Could Think＜/em＞ is an entertaining and practical book that addresses with warmth and intelligence the age-old question relevant to any stage of a relationship: why does love go wrong, and what can we do to make it right?＜/p＞ ＜p＞After many years of treating patients with relationship problems, psychologist Alon Gratch has identified seven common patterns of failed love. These patterns include, for example, narcissistic love, when a person has so idealized the partner and the relationship that they can’t possibly continue to measure up; one-way love, when a person loves someone who doesn’t return that love; triangular love, when a third party, be it a mother, an affair, or a job is involved in the relationship; and forbidden love, the kind of relationship that is generally off-limits, such as when a teacher dates a student. In ＜em＞If Love Could Think＜/em＞, Gratch shows us that all of these patterns stem from one fundamental problemーour own ambivalence.＜/p＞ ＜p＞With his trademark combination of depth and humor, and using many individual stories as engaging examples, Gratch walks us through the ways we get stuck in these patterns. In each case we are looking for perfect or ideal love. Every pattern creates an obstacle so we don’t have to face our own ambivalence about the relationship or the other person. But humans aren’t perfect, so no matter how wonderful love can be, there is no such thing as pure love. Ambivalence implies the existence not only of love but also of anger, disapproval, or disappointment. As Dr. Gratch shows, there are really only two choices: accept ambivalence as part of any loving relationship, or continue to repeat the patterns of illusory love. Happily, using a simple yet powerful three-step approach, ＜em＞If Love Could Think＜/em＞ helps readers to use their own minds to break these patterns of failed relationships and find real and lasting love.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Welcome to the world of Ann Coulter. With her monumental bestsellers ＜em＞Treason＜/em＞, ＜em＞Slander＜/em＞, and ＜em＞High Crimes and Misdemeanors＜/em＞, Coulter has become the most recognized and talked-about conservative intellectual in yearsーand certainly the most controversial. Now, in ＜em＞How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)＜/em＞, which is sure to ignite impassioned debate, she offers her most comprehensive analysis of the American political scene to date. With incisive reasoning, refreshing candor, and razor-sharp wit, she reveals just why liberals have got it so wrong.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this powerful and entertaining book, which draws on her weekly columns, Coulter ranges far and wide. No subject is off-limits, and no comment is left unsaid. After all, she writes, “Nothing too extreme can be said about liberals because it’s all true.” ＜em＞How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)＜/em＞ offers Coulter’s unvarnished take on:＜/p＞ ＜p＞?The essence of being a liberal: “The absolute conviction that there is one set of rules for you, and another, completely different set of rules for everyone else.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞?John Kerry: “A reporter asked Kerry, ‘Are you for or against gay marriage?’ As usual, his answer was, ‘Yes.’ ”＜/p＞ ＜p＞?Her 9/11 comments: “I am often asked if I still think we should invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity. The answer is: Now more than ever!”＜/p＞ ＜p＞?The state of the Democratic Party: “Teddy Kennedy crawls out of Boston Harbor with a quart of Scotch in one pocket and a pair of pantyhose in the other, and Democrats hail him as their party’s spiritual leader.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞?Her philosophy for arguing with liberals: “Tough love, except I don’t love them. My ‘tough love’ approach is much like the Democrats’ ‘middle-class tax cuts’ーeverything but the last word.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞?The “Treason Lobby”: “Want to make liberals angry? Defend the United States.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this full-on Coulterpalooza, you’ll find the real, uncensored Ann Coulter. A special concluding chapter even includes the pieces that squeamish editors refused to publishー“what you could have read if you lived in a free country,” says Coulter. ＜em＞How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)＜/em＞ is a stunning reminder of why Ann Coulter’s commentary has achieved must-read status.＜/p＞ ＜p＞“A fluent polemicist with a gift for Menckenesque invective...and she can harness such language to subtle, syllogistic argument.”--＜em＞Washington Post Book World＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Ann Coulter is a trailblazer.”--＜em＞Los Angeles Times Book Review＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“She can zing one-liners faster than Zeus can throw lightning bolts.”--＜em＞Kansas City Star＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“You know those pundits who bore you to tears trying to balance everyone’s point of view?

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Something in the Air Radio, Rock, and the Revolution That Shaped a Generation【電子書籍】[ Marc Fisher ]

＜p＞A sweeping, anecdotal account of the great sounds and voices of radio?and how it became a bonding agent for a generation of American youth＜/p＞ ＜p＞When television became the next big thing in broadcast entertainment, everyone figured video would kill the radio star?and radio, period. But radio came roaring back with a whole new concept. The war was over, the baby boom was on, the country was in clover, and a bold new beat was giving the syrupy songs of yesteryear a run for their money. Add transistors, 45 rpm records, and a young man named Elvis to the mix, and the result was the perfect storm that rocked, rolled, and reinvented radio.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Visionary entrepreneurs like Todd Storz pioneered the Top 40 concept, which united a generation. But it took trendsetting “disc jockeys” like Alan Freed, Murray the K, Wolfman Jack, Cousin Brucie, and their fast-talking, too-cool-for-school counterparts across the land to turn time, temperature, and the same irresistible hit tunes played again and again into the ubiquitous sound track of the fifties and sixties. The Top 40 sound broke through racial barriers, galvanized coming-of-age kids (and scandalized their perplexed parents), and provided the insistent, inescapable backbeat for times that were a-changin’.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Along with rock-and-roll music came the attitude that would literally change the “voice” of radio forever, via the likes of raconteur Jean Shepherd, who captivated his loyal following of “Night People”; the inimitable Bob Fass, whose groundbreaking Radio Unnameable inaugurated the anything-goes free-form style that would come to define the alternative frontier of FM; and a small-time Top 40 deejay who would ultimately find national fame as a political talk-show host named Rush Limbaugh.＜/p＞ ＜p＞From Hunter Hancock, who pushed beyond the limits of 1950s racial segregation with rhythm and blues and hepcat patter, to Howard Stern, who blew through all the limits with a blue streak of outrageous on-air antics; from the heyday of summer songs that united carefree listeners to the latter days of political talk that divides contentious callers; from the haze of classic rock to the latest craze in hip-hop, ＜em＞Something in the Air＜/em＞ chronicles the extraordinary evolution of the unique and timeless medium that captured our hearts and minds, shook up our souls, tuned in?and turned on?our consciousness, and went from being written off to rewriting the rules of pop culture.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A dying Nazi soldier asks for your forgiveness. What would you do?＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞While imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp, Simon Wiesenthal was taken one day from his work detail to the bedside of a dying member of the SS. Haunted by the crimes in which he had participated, the soldier wanted to confess to--and obtain absolution from--a Jew. Faced with the choice between compassion and justice, silence and truth, Wiesenthal said nothing. But even years after the way had ended, he wondered: Had he done the right thing? What would you have done in his place?＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this important book, fifty-three distinguished men and women respond to Wiesenthal's questions. They are theologians, political leaders, writers, jurists, psychiatrists, human rights activists, Holocaust survivors, and victims of attempted genocides in Bosnia, Cambodia, China and Tibet. Their responses, as varied as their experiences of the world, remind us that Wiesenthal's questions are not limited to events of the past.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Ranging from fleeting moments of transcendence to full-blown encounters with ghosts and everything in betweenーvisions, near-death experiences, psychic communicationーmany extreme athletes have experienced these moments of connection with the beyond, but have been reluctant to talk about them.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Explorers of the Infinite＜/em＞, award-winning outdoors journalist and lifelong adventure sports devotee Maria Coffey probes the mystical and paranormal experiences of mountaineers, snowboarders, surfers, and more. She reviews cutting-edge science, and consults the history of philosophy and spirituality to answer the question: Could the state of intense “aliveness” that is the allure of extreme sports for so many actually be a route to a connection with the beyond?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Coffey investigates the scientific explanations for mystical phenomena, ranging from simple explanations to theories from consciousness studies and quantum physics, and leaves us wondering where science ends and spirituality begins.＜/p＞ ＜p＞An energetic, you-are-there look at the spiritual lives of extreme athletes, ＜em＞Explorers of the Infinite＜/em＞ asks why extreme athletes take the risks that allow them to push the limits of consciousness, what they encounter there, and what we can learn from them.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Running Home A Memoir【電子書籍】[ Katie Arnold ]

＜p＞＜strong＞In the tradition of ＜em＞Wild＜/em＞ and ＜em＞H Is for Hawk,＜/em＞ an ＜em＞Outside＜/em＞ magazine writer tells her storyーof fathers and daughters, grief and renewal, adventure and obsession, and the power of running to change your life.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY ＜em＞REAL SIMPLE＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞I’m running to forget, and to remember.＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞For more than a decade, Katie Arnold chased adventure around the world, reporting on extreme athletes who performed outlandish featsーwalking high lines a thousand feet off the ground without a harness, or running one hundred miles through the night. She wrote her stories by living them, until eventually life on the thin edge of risk began to seem normal. After she married, Katie and her husband vowed to raise their daughters to be adventurous, too, in the mountains and canyons of New Mexico. But when her father died of cancer, she was forced to confront her own mortality.＜/p＞ ＜p＞His death was cataclysmic, unleashing a perfect storm of grief and anxiety. She and her father, an enigmatic photographer for ＜em＞National Geographic,＜/em＞ had always been kindred spirits. He introduced her to the outdoors and took her camping and on bicycle trips and down rivers, and taught her to find solace and courage in the natural world. And it was he who encouraged her to run her first race when she was seven years old.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Now nearly paralyzed by fear and terrified she was dying, too, she turned to the thing that had always made her feel most alive: running. Over the course of three tumultuous years, she ran alone through the wilderness, logging longer and longer distances, first a 50-kilometer ultramarathon, then 50 miles, then 100 kilometers. She ran to heal her grief, to outpace her worry that she wouldn’t live to raise her own daughters. She ran to find strength in her weakness. She ran to remember and to forget. She ran to live.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Ultrarunning tests the limits of human endurance over seemingly inhuman distances, and as she clocked miles across mesas and mountains, Katie learned to tolerate pain and discomfort, and face her fears of uncertainty, vulnerability, and even death itself. As she ran, she found herself peeling back the layers of her relationship with her father, discovering that much of what she thought she knew about him, and her own past, was wrong.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Running Home＜/em＞ is a memoir about the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of our worldーthe stories that hold us back, and the ones that set us free. Mesmerizing, transcendent, and deeply exhilarating, it is a book for anyone who has been knocked over by life, or feels the pull of something bigger and wilder within themselves.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞“A beautiful work of searching remembrance and searing honesty . . . Katie Arnold is as gifted on the page as she is on the trail. ＜em＞Running Home＜/em＞ will soon join such classics as ＜em＞Born to Run＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Ultramarathon Man＜/em＞ as quintessential reading of the genre.”ーHampton Sides, author of ＜em＞On Desperate Ground＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Ghost Soldiers＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
