Người Đàn Bà Quỷ Quyệt (Tái Bản) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

My Japanese/French friend Yukie is visiting tomorrow from her new home town of Nantes. By association of ideas, that reminded me first of Jules Verne, Nantes's most famous son, and then of this bizarre sequel to From the Earth to the Moon. Everyone knows the story of the first book: the manic Gun Club build a giant cannon which projects a steam-punk spaceship into an orbit that takes it round the Moon and back home again. This one is rather more obscure, though when I was reading my way through Verne as a nine year old it was a favourite. The Gun Club have dazzled the world with their lunar exploit, but now they need something even bigger to keep people's attention. As you see in Apollo 13, this prediction was spot-on: the fickle public quickly got bored with space flight, and only woke up when it looked like a mission was about to go horribly wrong. Luckily for all of us, NASA didn't come up with anything as crazy as what happens here. Newton's Third Law, muse the amiable gun lunatics: equal and opposite reaction. You normally think of a gun as something used to throw a projectile. But the momentum imparted by the recoil is exactly as large. Suppose you had a really big gun. Maybe that recoil would be enough to change the axis of rotation of the Earth? And once they've got hold of the idea that this could be technically feasible, they immediately come up with a reason for doing it. You could flip the Earth's axis so that it was no longer at an inclination to the orbital plane. Then, hey, not only would you get rid of those pesky seasons, but you'd also move the North Pole to a place where you might be able to mine its mineral deposits! Must be a win. When can we get started? At age 9, I read the novel straight: the Gun Club are lovable rogues, possibly a little too impetuous for their own good, but basically on the side of the angels. The horrified citizens who try to stop them from carrying out this insane scheme are kind of boring. Okay, I suppose it's dangerous, but you never get anywhere without taking a few risks. Don't they see how damn cool is? I should re-read the book and find out whether it was actually a satire. It ought to be. But, given how much Verne loved technology in all its forms, I wouldn't bet on it.

Tự Học Đàn Dương Cầm (Không CD) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

i couldn't wait to buy this book. I always liked Tom Wolfe. However, "they" have said that the zeitgeist has passed him by. I believe "they" are right. I went to college, and sure, some parts are accurate in terms of how the students act. For the most part, Charlotte gets sucked into the clutches of a lot of douchebags whom she should have learned to avoid. The ending was so disappointing, also. I really hoped this book would end a completely different way, but it just didn't. Save yourself several hundred pages...don't read it unless you are really bored and have lots of time on your hands.

Yêu Như Kẻ Điên Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Hoàng Thư

This is a well-written and fairly accessible book about the 13-15th century popular narrative of host desecration. Host desecration tales - tales of Jews stealing and then stabbing or boiling the consecrated host, only to have the host (which is now the body of Christ, since it's been consecrated) bleed like crazy until the Christians find it - spread throughout Europe, and had the real consequences of Jews being persecuted and, in some cases, massacred. Here Rubin tries to answer the question of how it happened - how does a story like that spread, and how do you suddenly decide that your Jewish neighbor is the enemy?

Người Dũng Cảm & Kẻ Điên Rồ Trong Kinh Doanh Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Simon Zingerman

A rather mediocre writing style diminishes the appeal of the book. Also, the author gives no source notes which I at least would have found helpful. He does have a selected bibliography at the end but there's no telling what his sources are for some of the stories he quotes. Not recommended.

Kate Winslet won for Best Actress in the film adaptation of this book so I wanted to check it out. I wasn't disappointed and thought it was a great, easy, honest, interesting read.

Bé Làm Họa Sỹ - Bé Tô Màu (Tập 12) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

I loved this book! Ms. Dalton just does it for me. This more sci-fi book blew me away. Aine is pretty amazing. She's tough and takes no prisoners. I really admire her. The lost she's experienced is pretty bad and has damaged her just a bit. Sammuel and Ker are HOT. Let me repeat, H.A.W.T. Ker is one sexy and intimidating alien. Just thinking about him and what he has Sammuel and Aine do makes me hot. I loved the sex scenes. I enjoyed the scene where Sammuel was in a council session. That blew my mind. The one thing I didn't like so much was the reason for the separation. It was a needed situation but seemed so foolish. I guess in the heat of the moment, people do, say and hear the dumbest things.
