The Machine Stops - E. M. Forster - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Machine Stops - E. M. Forster - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

''"You talk as if a god had made the Machine," cried the other. "I believe that you pray to it when you are unhappy. Men made it, do not forget that."'' E.M. Forster is best known for his exquisite novels, but these two affecting short stories brilliantly combine the fantastical with the allegorical. In ''The Machine Stops'', humanity has isolated itself beneath the ground, enmeshed in automated comforts, and in ''The Celestial Omnibus'' a young boy takes a trip his parents believe impossible.This book contains The Machine Stops and A Celestial Omnibus.

The Time Machine - H. G. Wells - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

The Time Machine - H. G. Wells - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.“In a moment I was clutched by several hands, and there was no mistaking that they were trying to haul me back . . . You can scarce imagine how nauseatingly inhuman they looked – those pale chinless faces and great, lidless, pinkish-grey eyes!”An English scientist regales his dinner guests with the tale of his travels to the year 802,701, where he discovers that the human race has evolved into two distinct societies. The Eloi, elegant and peaceful, yet lacking spirit, are terrorised by the sinister, light-fearing Morlocks, who live underground, surrounded by industry. And when his time machine mysteriously vanishes, the scientist must descend to the realm of the Morlocks in order to find his only hope of escape . . .H. G. Wells is considered a founding father of modern science fiction, coining the term ‘time machine’ and popularising the idea of time travel in literature.

The Time Machine and Other Works - H. G. Wells - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Time Machine and Other Works - H. G. Wells - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In these ''scientific romances'' H. G. Wells sees the present reflected in the future and the future in the present. His aim is to provoke rather than predict. The Sleeper falls into a trance, waking up two centuries later as the richest man in a world of new technologies, power-greedy leaders, sensual elites, and brutalised industrial slaves. Arriving in the year 802,701, the Time-Traveller finds that humanity has evolved into two drastically different species; going farther still, he witnesses the ultimate fate of the solar system. The Chronic Argonauts , the original version of The Time Machine , pits a scientist with daring views of time and space against superstitious villagers. In all three works Wells laces vivid adventure stories with the latest ideas in biology and physics.

Shirley - Charlotte Bronte - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Shirley - Charlotte Bronte - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

With an Introduction and Notes by Sally Minogue The Shirley of the title is a woman of independent means; her friend Caroline is not. Both struggle with what a woman''s role is and can be. Their male counterparts - Louis, the powerless tutor, and Robert, his cloth-manufacturing brother - also stand at odds to society''s expectations. The novel is set in a period of social and political ferment, featuring class disenfranchisement, the drama of Luddite machine-breaking, and the divisive effects of the Napoleonic Wars. But Charlotte Brontës particular strength lies in exploring the hidden psychological drama of love, loss and the quest for identity. Personal and public agitation are brought together against the dramatic backdrop of her native Yorkshire. As always, Brontë challenges convention, exploring the limitations of social justice whilst telling not one but two love stories.

Skylight - BRUGT BOG - David Hare - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

Skylight - BRUGT BOG - David Hare - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG ''There are times in the theatre when you suddenly find yourself in the grip of silence. There is no fidgeting or coughing, no shifting about in seats: the audience''s attention is so tense it is almost palpable. This is because it is both thrilling and dangerous: a fight to the death, or the dawning of salvation. David Hare''s new play, Skylight , is punctuated by such moments. They are the signs that a dramatist of the first rank is writing at full stretch, in complete command of his material, undogmatic and unafraid, unforgiving and compassionate.'' Sunday Times Skylight was revived in a new production at the Wyndham''s Theatre, London, in June 2014, which received the Evening Standard Revival of the Year Award.

The Lost World and Other Stories - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Lost World and Other Stories - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

With a new Introduction by Cedric Watts, M.A., Ph.D., Research Professor of English, University of Sussex. These lively, varied and thought-provoking science-fiction stories (from the era of Jules Verne and H. G. Wells) are linked by their imposing central character, the pugnaciously adventurous and outrageous Professor Challenger. The Lost World (forebear of Jurassic Park) vividly depicts a perilous region in which the explorers confront creatures from the prehistoric era. The Poison Belt presents an eerie doomsday scenario, while The Disintegration Machine satirically comments on scientific cynicism. In When the World Screamed , the planet responds violently to an experimental incursion. The strangest item is The Land of Mist , which seeks to reconcile science with spiritualism. This memorable collection provides imaginative entertainment, entrancing escapism and bold provocation.

Finnegans Wake - James Joyce - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Finnegans Wake - James Joyce - Bog - Wordsworth Editions Ltd - Plusbog.dk

FinnegansWake is the book of Here Comes Everybody and Anna Livia Plurabelle andtheir family - their book, but in a curious way the book of us all as well asall our books. Joyce''s last great work, it is not comprised of many borrowedstyles, like Ulysses , but, rather,formulated as one dense, tongue-twisting soundscape. This ''language'' is based on English vocabulary and syntax but, at the sametime, self-consciously designed to function as a pun machine with anastonishing capacity for resisting singularity of meaning. Announcing a''revolution of the word'', this astonishing book amounts to a powerfullyresonant cultural critique - a unique kind of miscommunication which, far fromstabilizing the world in meaning, constructs a universe radically unfixed by awild diversity of possibilities and potentials. It also remains the mosthilarious, ''obscene'', book of innuendos ever to be imagined.

Follow My Lead - Carol Quinn - Bog - Seal Press - Plusbog.dk

Follow My Lead - Carol Quinn - Bog - Seal Press - Plusbog.dk

Follow My Lead is the story of how two rambunctious dogs and a tough Eastern European dog trainer named Irina taught Carol Quinn everything she needed to know about life, love, and happiness. It all begins when the author—unhappy with her failing love affair, her career, and even herself—decides to enroll her two Rhodesian ridgebacks into dog agility training. She's hoping to both find a hobby and straighten out her unruly pets, but she soon discovers that dog agility demands more from her than she ever expected. What follows is a life-changing experience: one that teaches her not only about her dogs but also about herself. With Irina’s guidance and wisdom, Quinn and her dogs develop a deep bond of trust as they learn to navigate the course obstacles, and Quinn begins to accept her own flaws, allowing her to find the inner strength to become the "alpha dog” of her own life.

The Imitation Game: Alan Turing Decoded - BRUGT BOG - Jim Ottaviani - Bog - - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG - OBS Bogen har et buk nederst på bagsiden / The book has a crease at the bottom of the back cover. Alan Turing (1912–1954) was the mathematician credited with cracking the German Enigma code during World War II, enabling the Allies to defeat the Nazis. After the war, Turing went on to launch modern computer science through his creation of the universal Turing machine and the Imitation Game, an artificial-intelligence test that is still in use today. Turing kept his code-breaking work a secret in order to safeguard his native England, but failed to hide his sexual preferences, which led to his tragic death at the hands of the same country he worked so hard to protect. Jim Ottaviani and Leland Purvis show Turing to be an eccentric, persecuted genius and a groundbreaking theoretician whose seminal work still plays a role in the science and telecommunication systems that fuel our modern world.

BRUGT BOG - Daring Greatly - Brene Brown - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG - Daring Greatly - Brene Brown - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG **Now on Netflix as The Call to Courage ** ''She''s so good, Bren é Brown, at finding the language to articulate collective feeling'' Dolly Alderton Every time we are faced with change, no matter how great or small, we also face risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - or feel guilt for feeling them in the first place. In a powerful new vision Dr Brené Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability, and dispels the widely accepted myth that it''s a weakness. She argues that, in truth, vulnerability is strength and when we shut ourselves off from vulnerability - from revealing our true selves - we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Daring Greatly is the culmination of 12 years of groundbreaking social research, across every area of our lives including home, relationships, work, and parenting. It is an invitation to be courageous; to show up and let ourselves be seen, even when there are no guarantees. This is vulnerability. This is daring greatly.
