EL THRILLER QUE TODO EL MUNDO ESTÁ LEYENDO EN EE.UU. 16 semanas en la lista de best sellers de The New York Times Más de 350.000 ejemplares vendidos «Tiene todo lo que se puede pedir a un thriller». Reese Witherspoon Conoces a alguien en una fiesta. Se parece a ti. «Suena» como tú. Incluso se llama igual que tú... Está aquí para quitarte algo que te pertenece. ¿Hasta dónde llegarías para protegerlo? Evie Porter tiene todo lo que cualquier chica podría desear: un novio que la quiere, una casa con jardín y unas amigas fantásticas. Pero Evie Porter no existe. La identidad es lo primero: Evie Porter. Una vez que su misterioso jefe, el señor Smith, le da un nombre y una ubicación, aprende todo lo que hay que saber sobre la ciudad y sus habitantes. Luego, el objetivo: Ryan Sumner. La última pieza del rompecabezas es el trabajo. Pero para Evie este trabajo es diferente. Ryan se ha metido bajo su piel y sus sueños y anhelos verdaderos se han colado en la relación, hasta tal punto que ha empezado a imaginarse otro tipo de vida para sí misma, una en la que su jefe no mueva los hilos. Evie no puede cometer ningún error, especialmente después de lo que pasó la última vez... Porque lo único que ha intentado mantener siempre al margen de sus actividades, la única identidad a la que siempre podría volver (su verdadera identidad), acaba de llegar a esta ciudad. A medida que el pasado de Evie comienza a alcanzarla, ¿podrá ir un paso por delante para salvar su futuro? La crítica ha dicho: «El tipo de lectura asombrosamente retorcida por la que te quedas despierto toda la noche». I NEWS «Brillante». The Sun «Retorcida y emocionante». The Sunday Times «Sorprendentemente ingeniosa». Daily Mail

The classification of the finite simple groups is one of the major feats of contemporary mathematical research, but its proof has never been completely extricated from the journal literature in which it first appeared. This book serves as an introduction to a series devoted to organizing and simplifying the proof. The purpose of the series is to present as direct and coherent a proof as is possible with existing techniques. This first volume, which sets up the structure for the entire series, begins with largely informal discussions of the relationship between the Classification Theorem and the general structure of finite groups, as well as the general strategy to be followed in the series and a comparison with the original proof. Also listed are background results from the literature that will be used in subsequent volumes. Next, the authors formally present the structure of the proof and the plan for the series of volumes in the form of two grids, giving the main case division of the proof as well as the principal milestones in the analysis of each case. Thumbnail sketches are given of the ten or so principal methods underlying the proof. This book is intended for first- or second-year graduate students/researchers in group theory.

Under the Sea Wind is a classic wilderness adventure to which all nature writing is compared. The special mystery and beauty of the sea is the setting for Rachel Carson's memorable portrait of the sea birds and sea creatures that inhabit the eastern coasts of North America. In a sequence of riveting adventures along the shore, within the open sea, and down in the twilight depths, Rachel Carson introduces us to the winds and currents of the ocean as revealed in the lives of Scomber the mackerel and Anguilla the eel. Life for them is a continuous miracle, a series of life-and-death victories played out among strange and often terrifying life forms far below the surface of the sea. The hero of Under the Sea Wind is soon seen to be life itself, that quicksilver prize granted, for a brief time only, to the clever and the fortunate.

So how did this book come about? I was at a conference and I left inspired and confused at the same time. I scratched my head in disbelief as I walked out of the hotel. “How could they not all be aware of what a huge opportunity exists?” I asked my friend and fellow real estate investor, Hunter. To me it seemed like it was such common knowledge. Such a simple path that anyone can capitalize on to build extreme wealth, reduce their taxes and generate monthly cash flow.

Psychopath. The word conjurs up images of serial killers, rapists, suicide bombers, gangsters. But think again: you could probably benefit from being a little more psychopathic yourself. Psychologist Kevin Dutton has made a speciality of psychopathy, and is on first-name terms with many notorious killers. But unlike those incarcerated psychopaths, and all those depicted in movies and crime fiction, most are not violent, he explains. In fact, says Prof Dutton, they have a lot of good things going for them. Psychopaths are fearless, confident, charismatic and focused--qualities tailor-made for success in today's society. The Wisdom of Psychopaths is an intellectual rollercoaster ride that combines lightning-hot science with unprecedented access to secret monasteries, Special Forces training camps, and high-security hospitals. In it, you will meet serial killers, war heroes, financiers, movie stars and attorneys--and discover that beneath the hype and popular characterization, psychopaths have something to teach us. Like the knobs on a mixing deck, psychopathy is graded. And finding the right combination of psychopathic traits, sampled and mixed at carefully calibrated volumes, can put us ahead of the game.

The essential history of Alexander the Great, compelling and brilliantly realized Alexander the Great (356-323 BC), who led the Macedonian army to victory in Egypt, Syria, Persia and India, was perhaps the most successful conqueror the world has ever seen. Yet although no other individual has attracted so much speculation across the centuries, Alexander himself remains an enigma. Curtius' History offers a great deal of information unobtainable from other sources of the time. A compelling narrative of a turbulent era, the work recounts events on a heroic scale, detailing court intrigue, stirring speeches and brutal battles—among them, those of Macedonia's great war with Persia, which was to culminate in Alexander's final triumph over King Darius and the defeat of an ancient and mighty empire. It also provides by far the most plausible and haunting portrait of Alexander we possess: a brilliantly realized image of a man ruined by constant good fortune in his youth.

"Cervantes the Poet travels from the court of Isabel de Valois to Rome, Naples, Palermo, Algiers, and Madrid's barrio de las letras. Recovering Cervantes' nearly forty-year literary career before the publication of Don Quijote, Gabrielle Ponce-Hegenauer demonstrates the cultural, literary, and theoretical significance of Cervantes' status as a late-sixteenth- century itinerant poet. This study recovers the generative literary milieus and cultural practices of Spain's most famous novelist in order to posit a new theory of the modern novel as an organic transformation of lyric practices native to the late-sixteenth century and Cervantes' own literary outlook"-- Provided by publisher

“Normal” is something I could only dream of being called. “Mental” or “screwed up” is what I’m labeled. But actually feeling other people’s pain does that to a girl. I’m not an empath. I’m crazy! That is until I meet one guy who makes it all go away.The problem is, he’s even crazier than me. At least I thought that in the beginning before the coincidences became undeniable. But, if what he was saying were true, he would not only become my savior, he would also open my eyes to a world filled with angels, demons, witches, and an ancient curse that I’m caught smack bang in the middle of.Either way, I already knew he’d be the death of me.**

Timeless lessons on wealth, greed, and happiness doing well with money isn’t necessarily about what you know. It’s about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people. How to manage money, invest it, and make business decisions are typically considered to involve a lot of mathematical calculations, where data and formulae tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world, people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In the psychology of money, the author shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life’s most important matters.
