Fatal Inheritance (9781982111571)



Get swept away to the enchanting South of France with this "exquisite and shimmering" (Lisa Jewell, New York Times bestselling author of Then She Was Gone) suspenseful historical novel, where perilous secrets lurk under the glitz and glam of seaside wealth. She didn't have an enemy in the world...until she inherited a fortune. London 1948: Eve Forrester is stuck in a loveless marriage, isolated in her gray and gloomy house when out of the blue, she receives a letter. A wealthy stranger has left her a mysterious inheritance but in order to find out more, she must travel to the glittering French Riviera. There, Eve discovers she has been bequeathed an enchanting villa overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and suddenly, life could not be more glamorous. But while she rubs shoulders with the rich and famous, challengers to her unexplained fortune begin to emerge--challengers who would love to see Eve gone forever. Alone in paradise, Eve must unlock the story behind her surprise bequest--before her unexpected twist of fate turns deadly... With Rachel Rhys's "thrilling, seductive, and utterly absorbing" (Paula Hawkins, #1 bestselling author of The Girl on the Train) prose, Fatal Inheritance is an intoxicating story of dysfunctional families and long-hidden secrets, set against the decadence of the Côte d'Azur.

Πόλη και κινηματογράφος (9789609535168)



Τα τελευταία χρόνια το ενδιαφέρον για θέματα που αφορούν τη σχέση πόλης και κινηματογράφου έχει αυξηθεί μέσα από επίκαιρες αναζητήσεις αρχιτεκτόνων, κοινωνιολόγων, ιστορικών, σκηνοθετών και θεωρητικών του κινηματογράφου. Η διερεύνηση του ρόλου του αστικού τοπίου στον κινηματογράφο μας δίνει τη δυνατότητα να κατανοήσουμε όχι μόνο το πώς η πόλη συνέβαλε στην εξέλιξη του κινηματογράφου και με ποιο τρόπο ο κινηματογράφος εμπνεύστηκε από την πόλη και την ανακατασκεύασε, αλλά και το πώς οι ποικίλοι και διαρκώς μεταβαλλόμενοι τρόποι θέασης, καταγραφής και αναπαράστασης της πόλης μπορούν να φωτίσουν τους τρόπους κατανόησης και αντίληψης των πολύπλοκων και όλο και μεταβαλλόμενων αστικών μορφωμάτων μέσα στα οποία ζει πλέον πάνω από το μισό του παγκόσμιου πληθυσμού.

Η έκδοση της συλλογής κειμένων "Πόλη και κινηματογράφος: θεωρητικές και μεθοδολογικές προσεγγίσεις" που επιμελήθηκαν οι Ειρήνη Σηφάκη, Άννα Πούπου και Αφροδίτη Νικολαΐδου αποτελεί μια πρώτη απόπειρα χαρτογράφησης του εύρους του νέου αυτού διεπιστημονικού πεδίου που καταγράφεται με μεγάλη δυναμική στη διεθνή βιβλιογραφία. Αντικείμενα μελέτης των κειμένων που περιλαμβάνονται σε αυτό το βιβλίο είναι η εικονογραφία της κινηματογραφημένης πόλης, η μετατροπή του αστικού χώρου σε κινηματογραφικό ντεκόρ κατά τη διάρκεια παραγωγής μιας ταινίας, η γενεαλογία και δημιουργία της νοηματικής συστοιχίας που συνδέει την πόλη με τον κινηματογράφο και τη νεωτερικότητα σε θεωρητικά κείμενα της πολιτισμικής κριτικής. Ακόμα εξετάζεται η ιστορική πορεία της κινηματογραφικής αίθουσας ως σημείο συνάντησης της πόλης και του κινηματογράφου αλλά και η σχέση του δικτύου των κινηματογραφικών φεστιβάλ με τις πόλεις που τα φιλοξενούν.

Στο βιβλίο αυτό παρουσιάζονται τα πρωτότυπα άρθρα των Ε. Σηφάκη, Α. Πούπου, Α. Νικολαΐδου αλλά και τα αναδημοσιευμένα κείμενα αναγνωρισμένων ακαδημαϊκών του εξωτερικού που έχουν συμβάλει σημαντικά στο πεδίο αυτό όπως η Giuliana Bruno (Harvard University), η Νία Περιβολαροπούλου (Essen Universitat), ο Laurent Creton (Paris 3 - Universite de la Sorbonne Nouvelle), ο Julian Stringer (Nottingham University) και η Paula Massood (Brooklyn College).

Περιεχόμενα:

- Nia Perivolaropoulou, "Η κινηματογραφική πόλη: Siegfried Kracauer"
- Giuliana Bruno, "Ο κινηματογράφος και η γεωγραφία της νεωτερικότητας"
- Άννα Πούπου, "Σχήματα Πόλεων: κινηματογραφικοί πρόλογοι, εισαγωγικές σεκάνς και αστική εικονογραφία"
- Paula J. Massood, "Αστικοί χώροι και αστικοί χρόνοι: το χρονοτόπιο του Μπαχτίν και ο πρόσφατος αφρο-αμερικάνικος κινηματογράφος"

If Only (9781473691773)



Erin is about to turn thirty and her life is definitely not where she thought it would be. She hates her job, she's jealous of her perfect flatmate and she has just called off her wedding. She's trying (sort of) to make a fresh start and get things 'on track' finally, but where to begin?

A trip home to Ireland to celebrate her birthday with her beloved grandmother is a welcome distraction, but
what she's not prepared for is the gift she receives: a secret family heirloom that will change everything.

There are so many questions that have been keeping Erin from moving forward. Should she have married Dan? Would she be happier if she lost weight? Was turning down her dream job the giant mistake she's always feared it was? And now she might have a way to find the answers, and a clear path to the life she's always dreamed of.

But as Erin gets caught up in one 'if only' after another, is she missing out on all the things her real, present-day life is offering her?

If Only, the wonderful debut novel by Melanie Murphy is full of heart, humour, second chances, and a sprinkle of magic.

Analysis (9780821827833)



Significantly revised and expanded, this new Second Edition provides readers at all levels - from beginning students to practicing analysts - with the basic concepts and standard tools necessary to solve problems of analysis, and how to apply these concepts to research in a variety of areas. Authors Elliott Lieb and Michael Loss take you quickly from basic topics to methods that work successfully in mathematics and its applications. While omitting many usual typical textbook topics, ""Analysis"" includes all necessary definitions, proofs, explanations, examples, and exercises to bring the reader to an advanced level of understanding with a minimum of fuss, and, at the same time, doing so in a rigorous and pedagogical way. Many topics that are useful and important, but usually left to advanced monographs, are presented in ""Analysis"", and these give the beginner a sense that the subject is alive and growing.This new Second Edition incorporates numerous changes since the publication of the original 1997 edition and includes: a new chapter on eigenvalues that covers the min-max principle, semi-classical approximation, coherent states, Lieb-Thirring inequalities, and more; extensive additions to chapters covering Sobolev Inequalities, including the Nash and Log Sobolev inequalities; new material on Measure and Integration; many new exercises; and, much more. ..The Second Edition continues its no-nonsense approach to the topic that has made it one of the best selling books on the subject. It is an authoritative, straight-forward volume that readers - from the graduate student, to the professional mathematician, to the physicist or engineer using analytical methods - will find useful both as a reference and as a guide to real problem solving.About the authors: Elliott Lieb is Professor of Mathematics and Physics at Princeton University and is a member of the US, Austrian, and Danish Academies of Science. He is also the recipient of several prizes including the 1988 AMS/SIAM Birkhoff Prize. Michael Loss is Professor of Mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Alpha Girls : The Women Upstarts Who Took on Silicon Valley's Male Culture and Made the Deals of a Lifetime (9780349420257)



'ALPHA GIRLS will be a story to make you laugh and cry. It will inspire and infuriate you. It will be a must-read for women of all ages.' - Arianna Huffington

For all its trailblazing, world-shaping innovation, Silicon Valley has long been a mysterious, male-dominated world and, at its worst, a toxic environment in which to be a woman. Recent exposes have revealed sexist 'bro-cultures' at top tech companies, ranging from sexual harassment lawsuits in which women are routinely excluded from all-male ski trips to the partner at a leading VC firm who, when asked by a reporter whether there were talented females candidates on the job market, replied 'we're not prepared to lower our standards.'

How is it possible that a community with such forward-looking technology, could take such a backward approach to gender relations?

ALPHA GIRLS dives into this enigmatic world, going behind the scenes at Facebook, Microsoft, McAfee, Google, Tesla and more to reveal the history of Silicon Valley from the point of view of the women who have witnessed and participated in its rise to global domination of the business landscape. Julian Guthrie focuses on a small group of self-made women who, outnumbered and underestimated, helped launch the modern computer industry, and are today renowned figures in the VC world of the Valley.

ALPHA GIRLS is an inspiring, groundbreaking, true story about women taking enormous risks, playing by the men's rules, juggling work and family, all the while refusing to be limited by the expectations of others. These alpha girls - as well as men in the industry - have granted Julian incredible, unprecedented access to an otherwise closed community.
