Paperback. Condizione: Good. What happens when a young, naive bride meets the Egyptian belly dancers and their enigmatic manager at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair? It changes everything. Young bride Dora Chambers can't wait to begin her new life in Chicago. It's an exciting time, with the 1893 World's Fair putting a kaleidoscope of new inventions, new cultures, and new ideas on display. Unfortunately, those aren't the only things on display. The Egyptian belly dancers' performances are stirring up a scandal, and the distasteful task of enforcing proper Victorian conduct on them has fallen to Dora as part of her initiation into the Fair's prestigious Board of Lady Managers. But Dora's sensibilities are not so easily flustered by the dancers. She finds herself captivated by these exotic women, and by their enigmatic manager, Hossam Farouk, who makes his mistrust of her known - although his lingering glances hint at something else. As Dora's eyes are opened to the world beyond her own, she finds the courage to break free of social expectations and self-imposed bondage, and discovers the truth about the desire and passion in her heart. THE GIRL ON THE MIDWAY STAGE is a lush historical novel rich with authentic Victorian period detail, discovery, and romance that will sweep you up in Dora's struggle to understand herself, her quickly changing world, and her own unique journey to happiness. *** This title was formerly published by Berkley/Penguin Random House as THE BELY DANCER ***.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 2017 Reprint of 1951 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. When originally released, Knight's The Economic Organization revitalized the teaching of economic theory in America during the 1930s, laying the foundation for the price theory revolution led by economists emerging from Knight's circle at The University of Chicago. Knight shows that when societies choose to allow market organization, their economy simultaneously solves the fundamental functions of valuation and efficiency. It also organizes the production and distribution of resources, providing incentives for progress. The Economic Organization provides a short introduction to the basic principles of supply, demand, and distribution that emerge from neoclassical price theory. The central role of the price mechanism in market organization is illustrated neatly by Knight's wheel of wealth--the circular flow diagram most often identified with macroeconomic flows, but introduced here for price theoretic reasons. This version also includes his essay on Utility and Cost, which provides a seamlessly integrated alternative-cost interpretation of neoclassical theory.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. 2013 Reprint of 1959 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. This is the publication of the influential 1959 Rede Lecture by British scientist and novelist C. P. Snow. Its thesis was that the intellectual life of the whole of western society was split into the titular two cultures - namely the sciences and the humanities - and that this was a major hindrance to solving the world's problems. Published in book form, Snow's lecture was widely read and discussed on both sides of the Atlantic, leading him to write a 1963 follow-up, The Two Cultures: And a Second Look: An Expanded Version of The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. 2017 Reprint of 1933 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Pirandello began writing it in 1909. In an autobiographical letter, published in 1924, the author refers to this work as the .bitterest of all, profoundly humoristic, about the decomposition of life. Vitangelo, the protagonist, discovers by way of a completely irrelevant question that his wife poses to him that everyone he knows, and everyone he has ever met, has constructed a Vitangelo persona in their own imagination and that none of these personas corresponds to the image of Vitangelo that he himself has constructed and believes himself to be. The reader is immediately immersed in a cruel game of confusing projections, mirroring the reality of social existence itself, which imperiously dictate their rules. As a result, the first, ironic awareness of Vitangelo consists in the knowledge of that which he definitely is not; the preliminary operation must therefore consist in the spiteful destruction of all of these fictitious masks. …

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Raskolnikov, an impoverished student living in the St. Petersburg of the tsars, is determined to overreach his humanity and assert his untrammeled individual will. When he commits an act of murder and theft, he sets into motion a story that, for its excruciating suspense, its atmospheric vividness, and its depth of characterization and vision is almost unequaled in the literatures of the world. The best known of Dostoevsky's masterpieces, Crime and Punishment can bear any amount of rereading without losing a drop of its power over our imaginations. Dostoevsky's drama of sin, guilt, and redemption transforms the sordid story of an old woman's murder into the nineteenth century's profoundest and most compelling philosophical novel. Award-winning translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky render this elusive and wildly innovative novel with an energy, suppleness, and range of voice that do full justice to the genius of its creator.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 2013 Reprint of 1948 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Contemplation is a word that Thomas Merton used again and again in his writings. It is a theme that he spent much of his life exploring. About contemplation, he wrote Contemplation is the highest expression of man's intellectual and spiritual life. It is that life itself, fully awake, fully active, fully aware that it is alive. It is spiritual wonder. It is spontaneous awe at the sacredness of life, of being. It is a vivid realization of the fact that life and being in us proceed from an invisible, transcendent, and infinitely abundant source. Contemplation is above all, awareness of the reality of that source. It knows the Source, obscurely, inexplicably, but with a certitude that goes beyond reason and beyond simple faith.It is a more profound depth of faith, a knowledge too deep to be grasped in images, in words, or even in clear concepts. This short pamphlet is a good introduction to this important topic in the overall work of Thomas Merton.…
