It's World War II, and women and girls have to do mens' jobs - making armaments. The book chronicles the lives of the girls who sit round a table making sure components are perfect to a fraction of an inch. I feel this is a job Dickens actually did, she knows so much about it. She also understands the need for a job, and the satisfaction of work well done, something her privileged background deprived her of until she worked as a servant and then a nurse (see One Pair of Hands and One Pair of Feet)... v angličtine, menší formát, brožovaná, 255 strán

The Guns of the South

Spisovatel: Turtledove Harry, BCA 1992
Katalogové číslo: G7636

The Confederates win the Civil War with aid from South African time travelers in this unconvincing "what-if" tale. Using a time machine, Andrew Rhoodie and his cadre of white supremacists from A.D. 2014 join the rebels and supply them with AK-47 assault rifles. Rhoodie's "America Will Break" brotherhood hopes to foster a haven for slavery and extreme racism that will last into succeeding centuries. Thus armed, Gen. Robert E. Lee's troops are soon victorious, and Lincoln agrees to divide the nation. Lee wins political office in the South, and, ironically, becomes both a proponent of emancipation and a foe of the bigoted visitors from the future. Turtledove ( Krispos Rising ) might win over some Civil War buffs through his knowledge of historical figures and events. But stilted dialogue, slack pacing and thin characters diminish the book's appeal.... v angličtine,obal,tvrdá väzba,560 strán

Self Matters - Creating Your Life from the Inside Out

Spisovatel: McGraw Phil, Simon and schuster source 2001
Katalogové číslo: F8553

People often feel they are looking for an answer to a question they cannot quite formulate, and Self Matters by Phil McGraw offers a starting point. He has half a good idea. The other half, the half that gets you over the goal line, is missing. It is sacrificed to give the book the widest possible appeal.The book's missing element is expressed in the first chapter. Phil says, Don't panic. Changing your life doesn't necessarily involve changing where you live, who you live with, your occupation, or how you spend your time.That is the age-old problem of psychological advice which promises you can have everything now in your life and perfect adjustment (or happiness) as well. The truth is you cannot. You have to undo the lies of your life to get to your authentic self. When you do that, you will not be surrounded by the negative things and negative people dragging you back to your former life.... v angličtine, obal, tvrdá väzba, väčší formát, 314 strán
