＜p＞＜strong＞He walked by faith, not by sight . . .＜/strong＞＜br /＞ Paul Osborne ("The Oz") is an extremely successful right-wing shock jock with a legion of angry listeners who rely on him to spit truth to the liberal powers that be. And with success comes money. Lots and lots of it. For decades now, Paul's been living a life of excess . . . and loneliness.＜br /＞ But when a stroke stops him in his tracks and an unlikely stranger nurses him back to health, he suddenly leaves everything he's worked for and sets off, on foot, on a journey across the country to make sense of his life. From the small, wooded towns of New Hampshire, down the coast then nearly all the way to California, Paul will experience rural America one step at a timeーand begin to spread the very message of harmony and acceptance that he once railed against.＜br /＞ Walking with the Prophets is a modern-day reimagining of Paul the Apostle's story. With lessons from the world's great religions and philosophers, The Oz will open the hearts and minds of some of the most hardened and cynical folks he meets . . . and begin a movement that will shake America to its core.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"Inspiring until the very end.＜/strong＞ ＜strong＞"＜/strong＞ - ＜em＞Advanced Reviewer＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Fans of ＜strong＞Paul, Apostle of Christ＜/strong＞ and ＜strong＞The Shack＜/strong＞ will love this christian book.＜/em＞＜/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！】The Great Gatsby Ignatius Critical Edition【電子書籍】[ Joseph Pearce ]

＜p＞＜em＞The Great Gatsby＜/em＞ is not only one of the greatest American novels but also one of the most perplexing. Is its theme a peculiar and simplified view of the American Dream as the masculine drive to pursue status, material wealth, and sensual gratificationーand the consequences of that pursuit? Fitzgerald’s masterwork certainly presents the pains of amorous loss and seems to suggest that wealth does not make for enduring happiness. But is there more to this modern literary classic? Something deeper? Are there elements of what C. S. Lewis called “the dialectic of desire”? Does the failure of all worldly desires to satisfy our deepest needs suggest a desire and a need for something the world can't provide? Is ＜em＞The Great Gatsby＜/em＞ a cautionary tale? If so, about what is it cautioning the reader? These great questions asked by the novel are in need of answers. Such answers are offered or at least suggested by the critics whose essays accompany this edition of Fitzgerald's beguiling novel.＜/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 stunning story about the power of sisterhood.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Kenzie and Quinn have been step-sisters and best friends since their parents married when they were two; being sisters is all they've ever known. But tension and constant screaming matches between their parents have left the girls lost and confused: there are no visitation rights for step-sisters and if their parents divorce, they're not sisters anymore. They're just...nothing.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Recognizing the girls' roiling anxiety, their grandmother sweeps the sisters away for the summer, bringing them to her house on North Carolina's Outer Banks. While out kayaking, the pair come across three wild marsh ponies grazing just a few yards away!

One is a very, very pregnant mare, and the girls vow to spend their summer watching over the wild mare and her fragile newborn foal, which they name Starling.＜/p＞ ＜p＞They want to make the most of their last summer as sisters, but as Kenzi mourns the impending loss of her step-mother and Quinn comes to terms with the crush she has on her best friend back home...it's hard to imagine saying goodbye. Whatever happens to Starling at the end of the summer, it's clear that things will never be the same.＜/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。

タイトル: Collected Poems of Kenneth Patchen著者: Kenneth Patchen出版社: New Directions出版日: 1968年01月17日古本非常に良い。端が少し摩耗しているが、汚れのないきれいな本。製本状態は良好。ダスト ジャケットが付属している場合は、それも含まれます。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。From the appearance in 1936 of Kenneth Patchen's first book, the voice of this great poet has been protesting war and social injustice, satirizing the demeaning and barbarous inanities of our culture--entrancing us with an inexhaustible flow of humor and fantasy. With directness and simplicity, he has restored the exaltation of romantic love to its ancient bardic place beside an awareness of God's living presence among all men. For this collection, assembled in his fifty-fourth year, Kenneth Patchen has drawn from the contents of twelve of his books. It provides the reader in many cases with the texts of poems no longer available even in rare editions.

タイトル: West with the Night: A Memoir著者: Beryl Markham出版社: North Point Press出版日: 2013年01月22日古本非常に良い。端が少し摩耗しているが、汚れのないきれいな本。製本状態は良好。ダスト ジャケットが付属している場合は、それも含まれます。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。A new edition of a great, underappreciated classic of our time Beryl Markham's West with the Night is a true classic, a book that deserves the same acclaim and readership as the work of her contemporaries Ernest Hemingway, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, and Isak Dinesen. If the first responsibility of a memoirist is to lead a life worth writing about, Markham succeeded beyond all measure. Born Beryl Clutterbuck in the middle of England, she and her father moved to Kenya when she was a girl, and she grew up with a zebra for a pet; horses for friends; baboons, lions, and gazelles for neighbors. She made money by scouting elephants from a tiny plane. And she would spend most of the rest of her life in East Africa as an adventurer, a racehorse trainer, and an aviatrix--she became the first person to fly nonstop from Europe to America, the first woman to fly solo east to west across the Atlantic. Hers was indisputably a life full of adventure and beauty. And then there is the writing. When Hemingway read Markham's book, he wrote to his editor, Maxwell Perkins: "She has written so well, and marvelously well, that I was completely ashamed of myself as a writer . . . [She] can write rings around all of us who consider ourselves as writers . . . It is really a bloody wonderful book." With a new introduction by Sara Wheeler--one of Markham's few legitimate literary heirs--West with the Night should once again take its place as one of the world's great adventure stories.

Adams loved intelligence work and that enthusiasm shines throughout the unfinished book he left when he died suddenly of a heart attack in 1988. He had planned[...]to write a definitive account of the numbers controversy and the failure of American intelligence during the Vietnam war. Scholars will regret that Adams did not live to carry out his plan, but what he left is perhaps more precious still - a book wonderfully alive, full of vivid characters, crisp dialogue, and a special feel for the strange world of intelligence analysis, where the only thing worse than being right too late is being right too soon. There have been many accounts of the Vietnam war by the soldiers who fought it and the Washington officials who ran it. Adams watched the war from a unique vantage point; for years the secret intelligence documents all crossed his desk. By the end of 1967 Adams knew the war was unwinnable, and he spent the next fifteen years explaining what had gone wrong to anyone who would listen. With the exception of a few brief editors' notes, War of Numbers is exactly the way Adams put it down on paper - as readable as a novel, and perhaps the best single account yet written about the politics of intelligence.

It is an international collection, featuring authors and scholars who write in different languages from different literary, spiritual, and personal perspectives. The book explores long-standing questions: What are the criteria for identifying Jewish literature? Are they language, religious affiliation of the author, religious sensibility, a distinctive Jewish imagination, or literary tradition? If the writer is the criterion, do Sholem Aleichem and Nathanael West really inhabit a shared universe? Is a text by S.Y. Agnon part of the same literary tradition as a play by Arthur Miller? Is Yiddish or Hebrew or Ladino the defining element? If so, where do we place Franz Kafka, Primo Levi, Elie Weisel, Saul Bellow, Nellie Sachs? Is tradition the yardstick? Do we then classify Saul Bellow's Mr. Sammler's Planet as a Jewish novel... as Holocaust literature... as American fiction? What Is Jewish Literature? debates all these possibilities. It is a landmark collection that encourages the reader to participate in the quest for answers that defy simple responses. The contributors reflect the multilingual and multicultural nature of any discussion of Jewish literature. Their voices range from polemical to speculative, from scientific to lyrical. What Is Jewish Literature? is an enduring contribution to the literary resource for the scholar, the teacher, and the student and for any individual who strives to appreciate, evaluate, and understand the varied riches of Jewish writing.

Today less than 2 percent of farms are controlled by black people--a loss of over 14 million acres and the result of discrimination and dispossession. While farm management is among the whitest of professions, farm labor is predominantly brown and exploited, and people of color disproportionately live in "food apartheid" neighborhoods and suffer from diet-related illness. The system is built on stolen land and stolen labor and needs a redesign.Farming While Black is the first comprehensive "how to" guide for aspiring African-heritage growers to reclaim their dignity as agriculturists and for all farmers to understand the distinct, technical contributions of African-heritage people to sustainable agriculture. At Soul Fire Farm, author Leah Penniman co-created the Black and Latinx Farmers Immersion (BLFI) program as a container for new farmers to share growing skills in a culturally relevant and supportive environment led by people of color. Farming While Black organizes and expands upon the curriculum of the BLFI to provide readers with a concise guide to all aspects of small-scale farming, from business planning to preserving the harvest. Throughout the chapters Penniman uplifts the wisdom of the African diasporic farmers and activists whose work informs the techniques described--from whole farm planning, soil fertility, seed selection, and agroecology, to using whole foods in culturally appropriate recipes, sharing stories of ancestors, and tools for healing from the trauma associated with slavery and economic exploitation on the land. Woven throughout the book is the story of Soul Fire Farm, a national leader in the food justice movement. The technical information is designed for farmers and gardeners with beginning to intermediate experience. For those with more experience, the book provides a fresh lens on practices that may have been taken for granted as ahistorical or strictly European. Black ancestors and contemporaries have always been leaders--and continue to lead--in the sustainable agriculture and food justice movements. It is time for all of us to listen."A moving and powerful how-to book for Black farmers to reclaim the occupation and the contributions of the BIPOC community that introduced sustainable agriculture."--BookRiot.com"Leah Penniman is . . . opening the door for the next generation of farmers."--CBS This Morning

In the first part of the book, he presents a full account of these stories, drawn from various texts of Theravada Buddhism, the Buddhism of South and Southeast Asia. Penner allots one chapter to each of the major milestones in Buddha's life, with titles such as: Birth and Early Life, Flight from the Palace, Enlightenment and Liberation, Last Watch and Funeral. In the process, he brings to the fore dimensions of the myth that have been largely ignored by western scholarship. In Part II, Penner offers his own original interpretations of the legends. He takes issue with Max Weber's assertion that "Buddhism is an other-worldly ascetic religion," a point of view that remains dominant in the received tradition and in most contemporary studies of Buddhism. His central thesis is that the "householder" is a necessary element in Buddhism and that the giving of gifts, which creates merit and presupposes the doctrine of karma, mediates the relation between the householder and the monk. Penner argues that the omission of the householder - in his view one-half of what constitutes Buddhism as a religion - is fatal for any understanding of Buddha's life or of the Buddhist tradition. This boldly revisionist and deeply learned work will be of interest to a wide range of scholarly and lay readers.

In this timely and provocative novel, a maverick candidate takes on his political enemies and the ruthless machinery of American politics Corey Grace--a handsome and charismatic Republican senator from Ohio--is plunged by an act of terrorism into a fierce presidential primary battle with the favorite of the party establishment and a magnetic leader of the Christian right. A decorated Gulf War Air Force pilot known for speaking his mind, Grace's reputation for voting his own conscience rather than the party line--together with his growing romance with Lexie Hart, an African-American movie star--has earned him a reputation as a maverick and an iconoclast. But Grace is still haunted by a tragic mistake buried deep in his past, and now his integrity will be put to the test in this most brutal of political contests, in which nothing in his past or present life is off-limits.Depicting contemporary power politics at its most ruthless, "The Race" takes on the most incendiary issues in American culture: racism, terrorism, religious fundamentalism, gay rights, and the rise of media monopolies with their own agenda and lust for power. As the pressure of the campaign intensifies, Grace encounters betrayal, excruciating moral choices, and secrets that can destroy lives. Ultimately, the race leads to a deadlocked party convention where Grace must resolve the conflict between his romance with Lexie and his presidential ambitions--and decide just who and what he is willing to sacrifice.

【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！】Data Clustering with Python From Theory to Implementation【電子書籍】[ Guojun Gan ]

＜p＞Data clustering, an interdisciplinary field with diverse applications, has gained increasing popularity since its origins in the 1950s. Over the past six decades, researchers from various fields have proposed numerous clustering algorithms. In 2011, I wrote a book on implementing clustering algorithms in C++ using object-oriented programming. While C++ offers efficiency, its steep learning curve makes it less ideal for rapid prototyping. Since then, Python has surged in popularity, becoming the most widely used programming language since 2022. Its simplicity and extensive scientific libraries make it an excellent choice for implementing clustering algorithms.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Features:＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜ul＞ ＜li＞Introduction to Python programming fundamentals＜/li＞ ＜li＞Overview of key concepts in data clustering＜/li＞ ＜li＞Implementation of popular clustering algorithms in Python＜/li＞ ＜li＞Practical examples of applying clustering algorithms to datasets＜/li＞ ＜li＞Access to associated Python code on GitHub＜/li＞ ＜/ul＞ ＜p＞This book extends my previous work by implementing clustering algorithms in Python. Unlike the object-oriented approach in C++, this book uses a procedural programming style, as Python allows many clustering algorithms to be implemented concisely. The book is divided into two parts: the first introduces Python and key libraries like NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib, while the second covers clustering algorithms, including hierarchical and partitional methods. Each chapter includes theoretical explanations, Python implementations, and practical examples, with comparisons to scikit-learn where applicable.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book is ideal for anyone interested in clustering algorithms, with no prior Python experience required.
