The Science of James Bond Mark Brake
Type : epub |
Size : 4.76 MB |
English |
Descirption: <p style="font-weight: 600">Spy-Fi Culture with a License to KillFrom Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, James Bond is the highest-grossing movie franchise of all time. Out-grossing Star Wars, Harry Potter, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the world's most iconic and international secret agent has a shelf life of almost six decades, from Dr. No to Spectre. As nuclear missile threats are replaced by a series of subtler threats in a globalized and digital world, Bond is with us still.
In The Science of James Bond, we recognize the Bond franchise as a unique genre: spy-fi. A genre of film and fiction that fuses spy fiction with science fiction. We look at Bond's obsessions with super-villains, the future, and world domination or destruction. And we take a peek under the hood of trends in science and tech, often in the form of gadgets and spy devices in chapters such as:
<li style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px">Goldfinger: Man Has Achieved Miracles in All Fields but Crime!<li style="margin-top: 0px; text-indent: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px">You Only Live Twice: The Race to Conquer Space<li style="margin-top: 0px; text-indent: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px">Live and Let Die: Full Throttle: Bond and the Car<li style="margin-top: 0px; text-indent: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px">Skyfall: The Science of Cyberterrorism<li style="margin-top: 0px; text-indent: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px">And more!This is the only James Bond companion that looks at the film and fiction in such a spy-fi way, taking in weapon wizards, the chemistry of death, threads of nuclear paranoia, and Bond baddies' obsession with the master race!

Fear Is Fuel The Surprising Power to Help You Find Purpose, Passion, and Performance
Type : epub |
Size : 788.8 KB |
English |
Descirption: Fear, the most powerful force in our life, is the least understood. Every one of us experiences it. Many arrange their lives to avoid it. Yet nearly every one of us needs to find more fear. Most of us know fear as the unwanted force that drives phobias, anxieties, unhappiness, and inhibits self-actualization. Ironically, fear is the underlying phenomenon that heightens awareness and optimizes physical performance, and can drive ambition, courage, and success. Harnessing fear can heighten emotional intelligence and bring success to every aspect of your life. Neuroscience and current research on how the brain processes and uses fear have torn the lid off the possibilities of human performance; yet most people are not reaching their complete potential because of a psychological roadblock Sweeney calls the Fear Frontier. Identifying your Fear Frontier and addressing it, Sweeney illustrates in these pages, is the path to success, happiness and fulfillment in almost all...

1812 The March on Moscow
Type : epub |
Size : 11.71 MB |
English |
9781848327047 |
Descirption: More than a third of a million men set out on that midsummer day of 1812: none can have imagined the terrors and hardships to come. They would be lured all the way to Moscow without having achieved the decisive battle Napoleon sought; and by the time they reached the city their numbers would already have dwindled by more than a third. One of the greatest disasters in military history was in the making.
The fruit of more than twenty years of research, this superbly crafted work skillfully blends the memoirs and diaries of more than a hundred eyewitnesses, all of whom took part in the Grand Army's doomed march to Moscow, to reveal the inside story of this landmark military campaign. The result is a uniquely authentic account in which the reader sees and experiences the campaign through the eyes of participants at each stage of the advance in enthralling day-by-day, sometimes hour-by-hour detail.

Britain in the Middle Ages An Archaeological History

English |
Descirption: This ebook edition does not include illustrations.As he did in 'Britain B.C.' and 'Britain A.D.', eminent archaeologist Francis Pryor challenges familiar historical vie of the Middle Ages by examining fresh evidence from the ground.The term 'Middle Ages' suggests a time between two other ages: a period when nothing much happened. In his radical reassessment, Francis Pryor sho that this is incorrect and that the Middle Ages were actually the time when the modern world was born. This was when Britain moved from Late Antiquity into a world we can recognize: roads and parishes became fixed; familiar institutions, such as the church and local government, came into being; industry became truly industrial; and international trade was now a routine process.Archaeology sho that the Middle Ages were far from static. Based on everyday evidence, Pryor demonstrates that the British agricultural and industrial revolutions had their roots in this era - as did the explosion of British...

He was already an international reference, she only aspired to become one.An intense artistic creation, along with pain and suffering, was generated by this tormented union, in particular for Frida.

On both continents, America and Europe, these commited artists proclaimed their freedom and left behind them the traces of their exceptional talent.In this book, Gerry Souter brings together both biographies and underlines with passion the link which existed between the two greatest Mexican artists of the twentieth century.
