Insomnia, или Поиски Механической Вороны
Автор: Марина Клингенберг
Год издания:
Бессонница – это нелегкое испытание, ввергающее человека в омут страшных иллюзий. Там, где сознание начинает граничить с безумием, приоткрывается завеса над тайнами мироздания… Но за такие знания приходится платить немалую цену.
Девушка, называющая себя Проволокой, отказывается закрывать глаза на противоестественные события и отправляется в путешествие по миру историй, не замечая, что уходит все дальше от реальности. За ней тенью следует страж Системы мироздания, и с каждым новым шагом провести грань между иллюзией и действительностью становится все сложнее.
Four Seasons in Rome: On Twins, Insomnia and the Biggest Funeral in the History of the World
Автор: Anthony Doerr
Год издания:
On the same day that his wife gave birth to twins, Anthony Doerr received the Rome Prize, an award that gave him a year-long stipend and studio in Rome…‘Four Seasons in Rome’ charts the repercussions of that day, describing Doerr's varied adventures in one of the most enchanting cities in the world, and the first year of parenthood. He reads Pliny, Dante, and Keats – the chroniclers of Rome who came before him – and visits the piazzas, temples, and ancient cisterns they describe. He attends the vigil of a dying Pope John Paul II and takes his twins to the Pantheon in December to wait for snow to fall through the oculus. He and his family are embraced by the butchers, grocers, and bakers of the neighbourhood, whose clamour of stories and idiosyncratic child-rearing advice is as compelling as the city itself.This intimate and revelatory book is a celebration of Rome, a wondrous look at new parenthood and a fascinating account of the alchemy of writers.Note that it has not been possible to include the same picture content that appeared in the original print version.

Essentials of Western Veterinary Acupuncture
Автор: Samantha Lindley
Год издания:
The field of pain research is rapidly expanding in both human and veterinary medicine, and has helped increase our understanding of acupuncture. However, many are still highly sceptical about the use of acupuncture and prefer for it to remain far from orthodox veterinary practice. This book seeks to challenge common misgivings by showing how veterinary acupuncture works (for small and large animals), and why it should be established as an orthodox form of treatment. Written from a Western approach, rather than a traditional Chinese Medicine approach, it explains the background and history of acupuncture and includes key information on safety aspects, understanding pain and how acupuncture can help, practical aspects such as types of needles and methods of restraint, and related techniques. Not intended as a techniques manual, this book is a preparatory text for those considering taking an acupuncture course and those wishing to gain a solid understanding of the subject.
