М.: Международные отношения, 1971. — 258 стр. Выберите нужное слово. Учебное пособие. 2-я (и последняя) книга серии. Очень полезная книга для всех изучающих немецкий язык. Рассматриваются трудности, связанные с отсутствием привычки у русского дифференцировать значения, которые выражены в русском языке унифицировано. Типичные лексические ошибки, которые обычно делают русские заключаются в неправильном выборе немецкого эквивалента (например, ряд слов, переводящихся на русский язык одинаково - "переживать") или в том, что немецкому слову приписывается более широкая семантика их русского эквивалента. (Например, „Er beschloß, daß er sehr klug ist" вместо „Er dachte (glaubte), daß er sehr klug ist".) В книге дается объяснение употребления немецких эквивалентов в двух планах: в плане сопоставления с русским языком и в плане выявления оттенков значения и специфики употребления внутри самого немецкого языка. Имеется обширный набор упражнений для закрепления различного уровня сложности.

<p>Wealth and money, which are meant to be sources of human happiness and facilitators of good social relations has instead become a monstrosity beyond human control. The unbridled quest to make money and accumulate wealth as well as assign social signification on the basis of the outcome of individuals' efforts in the process has ended up distorting existence and the meaning of being human itself.<br> <br>This work brings together a collection of very provocative and challenging articles that confront the problems created by wealth. Can there be happiness when wealth is increasingly concentrated in fewer and fewer hands? Can wealth really bring happiness? And what are the implications of the current trend to commodify everything for the project of human happiness? <br>The contributors to the volume argue that there is a need to change wealth accumulation and its core purpose. They contend that from wealth accumulation the gear must change to wealth alleviation, because the ways the rich become wealthy often correlate with the ways the number of the poor increase. Following from this, they argue that rather than the current focus on poverty alleviation, the focus should shift to wealth alleviation because a happy future for all lies in promoting human well-being and removing human ill-being through the spring wells of solidarity and humanity.<br> <br>______<br>Professor Mammo Muchie was born in Ethiopia and educated until matriculation in Gonder.

A crime that rocked a city. A case that stunned a nation. Based on the United States's first recorded murder trial, Eve Karlin's spellbinding debut novel re-creates early nineteenth-century New York City, where a love affair ends in a brutal murder and a conspiracy involving Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr erupts in shattering violence. It is high time to tell the truth. Time for justice. . . . How she was murdered and why she haunts me. It is not only Elma's story, it's mine. On the bustling docks of the Hudson River, Catherine Ring waits with her husband and children for the ship carrying her cousin, Elma Sands. Their Greenwich Street boardinghouse becomes a haven for Elma, who has at last escaped the stifling confines of her small hometown and the shameful circumstances of her birth. But in the summer of 1799, Manhattan remains a teeming cesspool of stagnant swamps and polluted rivers. The city is desperate for clean water as fires...

« Les affaires privées se règlent en privé », affirmait-il. François Hollande l’avait promis, il serait un président « exemplaire ». Il est devenu le héros d’un vaudeville dont s’est gaussée la France entière. Une affaire de cœur, de casque intégral et de dérobades à scooter. Était-ce écrit ? Était-il inscrit quelque part, loin des incertitudes du hasard, que les élans de ce chef d’État marqueraient à ce point son quinquennat ? Valérie, Ségolène, Julie, c’est sa vie. Mais c’est aussi la nôtre, notre vie publique, qui, depuis deux ans, s’en trouve parasitée. Jamais la confusion des genres n’avait été portée à cette extrémité.

A cameraman for the People's Army of Vietnam during the Vietnam War, he went on to achieve international fame as the director of films that address the human costs of the war and its aftermath.Thuy's memoir, when published in Vietnam in 2013, immediately sold out. In this translation, English-language readers are now able to learn in rich detail about the life and work of this preeminent artist. Written in a gentle and charming style, the memoir is filled with reflections on war, peace, history, freedom of expression, and filmmaking. Thuy also offers a firsthand account of the war in Vietnam and its aftermath from a Vietnamese perspective, adding a dimension rarely encountered in English-language literature.

"A novel that vividly examines the struggle of enslaved people to find their freedom, dignity and self-worth as our country struggled . " —Michael Glaser, former Poet Laureate of Maryland We have the wolf by the ears, and we can neither hold him, nor safely let him go. —Thomas Jefferson During the War of 1812, thousands of enslaved people from plantations across the Tidewater rallied to the British side, turning against an American republic that had barred them from the promises of freedom and democracy. Set against the backdrop of rebellion and war, Wayne Karlin's A Wolf by the Ears follows the interconnected stories of Towerhill and Sarai, two African slaves, and their master, Jacob Hallam. Educated side-by-side and inseparable as children, the three come of age as they are forced to grapple with—and break free of—the fraught linkage of black and white Americans and how differently each defines what it means to fight for freedom. Sarai and Jacob are caught in the tension between the dream of equality, the reality of slavery, and their own hearts, while Towerhill sits at the head of a company of black marines that is part of the force that takes Washington and watches the White House burn. " Wayne Karlin gives us a universe of well-honed, well-realized characters who . . . offer a new dimension about American slavery and what it did to us . . . He shows us war in language that makes him seem not just a storyteller but a witness. Karlin's work is inspired, a gift, and a pure treasure." —Edward P. Jones, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for  The Known World

The purpose, level, and style of this new edition conform to the tenets set forth in the original preface. The authors continue with their tack of developing simultaneously theory and applications, intertwined so that they refurbish and elucidate each other. The authors have made three main kinds of changes. First, they have enlarged on the topics treated in the first edition. Second, they have added many exercises and problems at the end of each chapter. Third, and most important, they have supplied, in new chapters, broad introductory discussions of several classes of stochastic processes not dealt with in the first edition, notably martingales, renewal and fluctuation phenomena associated with random sums, stationary stochastic processes, and diffusion theory.

The Emmy award-winning former executive producer of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report has assembled a stellar lineup of men who have one thing in common: all have been dumped...and are willing to share their pain and the lessons learned. Relationships end. And in almost all of them, even the most callow among us take something away. This is a book about that something, whether it be major life lessons, like 'If you lie, you will get caught,' simple truths like, 'Flowers work,' or something wholly unique like, 'Watch out for the high strung brother in the military.' This anthology will be comprised of longer and shorter pieces, drawn from an array of impressive celebrities, writers and public figures. Some pieces may be a paragraph in length while others will be full-blown essays. All of them will be about that salient something men take away from a failed relationship. Yes, men learn. This is not a touchy-feely book. This is not a self-help book. This is a book packed with smart, funny and insightful stories from men you probably thought never got dumped, or if they did, would never admit it." Humor

Three violent deaths occur within days among a group of young nouveaux riches of Hanoi―but neither the victims nor the circumstances are as they seem. Is fate responsible? Or a woman of extreme beauty and mystery? When Danang Publishing House risked bringing out Ho Anh Thai’s controversial novel Cõi người rung chuông tận thế (The Apocalypse Bell Tolls in the Human World) in 2002 after numerous others had refused it, Vietnam was a nation still struggling to find its identity decades after being torn apart by war. Ho Anh Thai’s previous stories and novels had already seized the imagination of a young postwar generation. He had become a literary sensation even as a teenager, his fresh, fluid, luminous style capturing the essence of their modern Vietnam. The book was a sensation in its author’s home country: to date it has sold more than 50,000 copies in ten printings and has been received enthusiastically by both public and critics as a work of creativity and disturbing truth. Now, as Apocalypse Hotel, Ho Anh Thai’s dark fable draws English-language readers into the divided society of 1990s Vietnam, to an underground economy in which anything may be bought and sold, youth seek speed, sex, and thrills, and past crimes still haunt the pure and the guilty alike. In this riveting, fast-paced cautionary tale, citizens of all ages and situations must come to grips with the sordid, unforeseen consequences of a war once meant to liberate them. Also 04 Activeable in e-book formats, ISBN 978-0-89672-804-2.
