代理商:大苹果 THE EVOLUTIONIST: THE STRANGE TALE OF ALFRED RUSSEL WALLACE

页数: 350 到书日期: 1900-1-1 上传日期: 2024-3-29

中文概要:


英文简介: 1858: The Malay Archipelago. In the remote tropics a young British naturalist, Alfred Wallace, toils in obscurity. He collects specimens: beetles, moths, ants and birds that sell for pennies apiece in England.

One night, suffering from fever and hallucination, Wallace solves the greatest mystery of the era: the origin of species. To circulate his discovery, he contacts a distant acquaintance Charles Darwin. Unbeknownst to Wallace, Darwin has been secretly penning a near-identical version of the same evolutionary theory for twenty years. Darwin soon achieves world-renown and Wallace earns, if nothing else, widespread grudging respect. But then Wallace returns to England where his advocacy for ideas ranging from socialism to spiritualism launches him on a collision course with the men at the very heart of the scientific establishment, including Darwin.

The Evolutionist tells of one man’s determination to seek out his own truths in his own unique way and the price he pays. From oppressive jungle to mid-Victorian London, this is a disturbing tale of money, class, faith and discrimination.

代理商:大苹果 DEN TOD üBERLEBEN (SURVIVING DEATH: COMING TO GRIPS WITH THE UNFATHOMABLE)

页数: 141 到书日期: 2024-3-28 上传日期: 2024-3-28

中文概要:


英文简介: Surviving death, how do you do that? This is the immediate challenge for anybody who has to keep on living after having lost someone dear to them. It’s helpful to acquaint yourself with some of the phases you are about to move through. A popular method of surviving death is not to talk about it. In his new book, Wilhelm Schmid tries to do the polar opposite.

Because there is no cure for it: for the time being, death continues to be the end point of life for every human being. The only variations are when and how we die. Usually, death comes too soon and leaves a great deal of suffering in its wake. Can this drama be mitigated by the belief that death is not the end of all life? In his new book, Wilhelm Schmid takes a fresh, in-depth look at questions that have plagued humankind for millennia. Such as: Where does a person go when they leave us? Do they begin a new life? Might there really be life after death? How might we imagine it? And can the mere possibility an afterlife offer us solace?

代理商:大苹果 READY TO DIVE: FIVE DECADES OF ADVENTURE

页数: 302 到书日期: 1900-1-1 上传日期: 2024-3-28

中文概要:


英文简介: In Ready to Dive, Curt Newport describes his role in some of the most daring and consequential deep ocean search and recovery operations of our time. Newport was there on the front lines and in the trenches, rigging lift lines, piloting underwater vehicles, and dealing with the carnage following both military and civilian plane crashes. Starting with his life as the son of a US Army aviator during various international postings before covering his conflicts with his father during the turbulent 1960s, the book details how he got into the subsea field. In a career lasting nearly fifty years, probing waters deeper than three miles, Newport describes unwinding passenger clothing from submersible propellers during the Air India salvage, recovering tons of volatile fuel–laden solid rocket motor parts from the Space Shuttle Challenger, thumbing through the wallet of a young girl lost during the crash of TWA Flight 800, and deciphering the navigational mystery of the USS Indianapolis. Ready to Dive is a gritty, blunt, and real firsthand subsea account unlike any other.

代理商:大苹果 QUEST FOR LOVE: MEMOIR OF A CHILD SEX SLAVE

页数: 0 到书日期: 2024-3-27 上传日期: 2024-3-26

中文概要: 這本回憶錄邀請讀者走進一位年輕的比利時女孩的內心和思想,她分享了她一年中的事件,她的聲音得到了成年作者的詞彙和理解的支持。 孩子的處境很殘酷; 她被一位患有精神疾病的母親賣入一個兇殘的戀童癖網絡。 她絕望地堅信,無論表面如何,真愛確實存在,並在地獄中尋找它最微弱的跡象。 當她對母親的盲目愛轉移到一個迷人的施暴者身上時,她經歷了浪漫的激情,但很快就陷入了卑鄙的背叛和暴力,最終導致了她的死亡。 在最黑暗的情況下,一次瀕臨死亡的經歷向她展示了她現象世界背後的真相,並讓她瞥見了她如此拼命尋求的偉大愛情。

極端的、有組織的虐待兒童行為令人震驚,而且往往令人難以想像。 然而,承認黑暗的現實是治癒的第一步。 這個敘述既提供了原始、冷酷的事實,也從受害者的角度展現了堅韌和優雅,揭示了最黑暗的噩夢很少只是這樣,而是與光明的禮物相稱。 這個十歲孩子的旅程表明,令人髮指的苦難可以解開隱藏的超越和無條件的愛的精神寶藏。(Zoe)


英文简介: This memoir invites the reader into the heart and mind of a young Belgian girl as she shares events out of one year of her life, her voice supported by the vocabulary and understanding of the adult author. The child’s circumstances are brutal; she is being sold by a mentally ill mother into a murderous pedophile network. She desperately clings to the belief that in spite of all appearances, true love does exist, and searches for the faintest sign of it in the midst of hell. When her blind love for her mother is transferred onto a charming perpetrator, she experiences romantic passion, but is soon cast into abject betrayal and violence, ultimately leading to her certain demise. In the darkest of circumstances, a near-death experience shows her the truth underlying her phenomenal world, and she is given a glimpse of that great love for which she is so desperately seeking.

Extreme, organized child abuse is horrifying, and often impossible to contemplate. And yet, acknowledging the reality of darkness is the first step towards healing. This account offers both the raw, cold facts as well as the resilience and grace from the victim’s perspective, revealing that the darkest of nightmares is rarely just that, but commensurate with gifts of light. This ten-year old’s journey suggests that heinous suffering can unlock hidden spiritual treasures of transcendence and unconditional love.
