  • Pages : 1136 pages

Download or read book The Road to Reality written by Roger Penrose and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2021-06-09 with total page 1136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **WINNER OF THE 2020 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS** The Road to Reality is the most important and ambitious work of science for a generation. It provides nothing less than a comprehensive account of the physical universe and the essentials of its underlying mathematical theory. It assumes no particular specialist knowledge on the part of the reader, so that, for example, the early chapters give us the vital mathematical background to the physical theories explored later in the book. Roger Penrose's purpose is to describe as clearly as possible our present understanding of the universe and to convey a feeling for its deep beauty and philosophical implications, as well as its intricate logical interconnections. The Road to Reality is rarely less than challenging, but the book is leavened by vivid descriptive passages, as well as hundreds of hand-drawn diagrams. In a single work of colossal scope one of the world's greatest scientists has given us a complete and unrivalled guide to the glories of the universe that we all inhabit. 'Roger Penrose is the most important physicist to work in relativity theory except for Einstein. He is one of the very few people I've met in my life who, without reservation, I call a genius' Lee Smolin

Book El Camino de Las Guilas

Download or read book El Camino de Las Guilas written by Carlos Mart Nez and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La vida es una constante búsqueda, un caminar continuo; donde aprendemos, descubrimos, encontramos, asimilamos, desechamos y más. Historias, realidades e imaginarios que pretenden darnos respuestas para conjugar al tiempo, la existéncia y su razón; Proyectando hacia la felicidad o bienestar. Sin embargo El camino de las águilas rompe los paradigmas prestablecidos, pues no somos quienes pensamos que somos. Nos confunde el caminar cuando no somos dueños de nuestro pensamiento, si no el de nosotros. Nos cuesta entender que el amor perfecto no es el que construimos con nuestra mente; es el que se manifi esta cuando te conviertes en consciencia.

Book THE IDEAS FACTORY

Download or read book THE IDEAS FACTORY written by and published by Salomón Boss. This book was released on 2024-09-29 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the beliefs and paradigms that govern our lives are manufactured and marketed, especially in the personal development industry. The text offers a deep analysis of how we have been trapped in an individualistic logic that promotes the idea that well-being depends exclusively on personal effort, when in reality many of our problems are of a social and collective nature. From this critique, an approach based on the power of the community is proposed, redefining our beliefs to build new, more inclusive and conscious realities. The book presents a clear and accessible method called "Creators," which invites readers to move from being passive consumers of ideas to active creators of new realities, where personal and collective transformation are intertwined. This makes it a unique resource in today's market, where the self-help industry has saturated people with empty promises of individual change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El falso documental ha pasado de ser una producción anecdótica a convertirse en una categoría cinematográfica reconocida por el gran público.

Este libro recopila algunos de los títulos más emblemáticos, buscando a través de su estudio las características y la estructura que lo definen como modelo documental.En sus páginas se mantiene que todo fake puede ser estudiado no solo por los códigos tradicionalmente adscritos a los relatos de realidad que parasita, sino también por el contexto de su producción, su recepción y por la actitud mantenida por el texto. Alguno de los aspectos que mejor definen el falso documental es su falta de vocaciónde engaño y su insistencia en retratar los medios de comunicación de una manera subversiva.

Book   Por Qu   Te Preocupas Tanto  Insp  rate

Download or read book Por Qu Te Preocupas Tanto Insp rate written by Gloria Rivera Bsn. Mphe. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El propósito de este libro es ayudarte a utilizar tu preocupación para inspirarte. La preocupación es parte de nuestro diario vivir. Es parte de nuestro comportamiento como seres humanos y algo con lo que tendremos que lidiar por el resto de nuestras vidas. Lo que hace la diferencia es el nivel de preocupación en tu vida y el objeto de tu preocupación. Si la preocupación es excesiva y no te permite funcionar, es entonces cuando inspirarte es la opción. Transformar tus preocupaciones en inspiración es usar esos mismos pensamientos que preocupan tu mente para estimularte a crear. Es permitir que esos pensamientos te provoquen una acción, un cambio. Es dejar que esos mismos pensamientos te revelen la respuesta que buscas. ¡Es un despertar hacia tu potencial de lograr todo lo que te propongas! Es un reavivamiento en lugar de permitir que las preocupaciones acaben con tu vida. Es ver cómo te llenas de vitalidad utilizando esas mismas preocupaciones como razones para levantarte y renovar la energía, siendo aún más fuerte. Es utilizar esa energía espiritual que todo lo puede y que nada ni nadie puede quitarte. Aunque otros traten de quitarte otras cosas nadie podrá quitarte tu pasión y tu entusiasmo, solo tú mismo, pero nadie más. ¡Es esa quietud y esa calma que viene cuando estás seguro de ti mismo y de que sí puedes hacer lo que sea y ahora! Es sentirte restaurado cuando todo a tu alrededor parece haberse derrumbado. ¡Es estar tan animado que nada ni nadie te hace vacilar porque tu fe es sólida e intacta! ¡Es cuando la intensidad de tus preocupaciones equivale a la intensidad de tu poder, tu fortaleza y tu entusiasmo para no darte por vencido y seguir tratando! Y finalmente, es cuando tu inspiración se une a tu intención y tu propósito en la vida y llegas a ese lugar donde todas tus aspiraciones, tu ambición y tu ideal en la vida encuentran significado.

Book The Way Out

  • Author : Ricardo Piglia
  • Publisher : Restless Books

  • ISBN : 1632062216
  • Pages : 262 pages

Download or read book The Way Out written by Ricardo Piglia and published by Restless Books. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Argentine literary powerhouse Ricardo Piglia, The Way Out is “an offbeat take on the campus novel, full of sex, intrigue, and marginalia” (Kirkus Reviews) that probes the lengths we go to hide our own truths and to uncover the secrets of others. In the mid 1990s Emilio Renzi leaves his unstable life in Argentina to take a visiting position at a prestigious university in New Jersey. Settling in for a semester of academic quietude, he is unexpectedly swept up in a secret romance with his colleague, the brilliant and enigmatic Ida Brown. But their clandestine relationship is cut brutally short by an apparent tragic car accident. Discontented with the police’s lackluster inquiries into Ida’s death, Renzi begins his own investigation. His suspicions are piqued as details emerge about a bizarre string of attacks targeting scientists and researchers. Then a radical manifesto appears in the press threatening continued violence. As he delves deeper into Ida Brown’s past, Renzi discovers a link between her and the terrorist that sets him on a path of no return: he must discover once and for all whether her death was part of a larger pattern and, if so, whether she was a victim or accomplice. Renzi’s quest for truth exposes a darker side of humanity that will force him to confront the systems and culture that could produce such a misguided killer. Praise for The Way Out: “An offbeat take on the campus novel, full of sex, intrigue, and marginalia.” —Kirkus Reviews Praise for The Diaries of Emilio Renzi: “Splendidly crafted and interspliced with essays and stories, this beguiling work is to a diary as Piglia is to “Emilio Renzi”: a lifelong alter ego, a highly self-conscious shadow volume that brings to bear all of Piglia’s prowess as it illuminates his process of critical reading and the inevitable tensions between art and life. Amid meeting redheads at bars, he dissects styles and structures with a surgeon’s precision, turning his gaze on a range of writers, from Plato to Dashiell Hammett, returning time and again to Pavese, Faulkner, Dostoyevsky, Arlt and Borges. Chock-full of lists of books and films he consumed in those voracious early years of call girls, carbon paper, amphetamines and Heidegger, this is an embarrassment of riches — by turns an inspiring master class in narrative analysis, an accounting of the pesos left in his pockets and a novel of Piglia’s grandfather (named Emilio, natch) with his archive of World War I materials pilfered from Italian corpses…. No previous familiarity with Piglia’s work is needed to appreciate these bibliophilic diaries, adroitly repurposed through a dexterous game of representation and masks that speaks volumes of the role of the artist in society, the artist in his time, the artist in his tradition.” —Mara Faye Lethem, The New York Times Book Review “For the past few years, every Latin American novelist I know has been telling me how lavish, how grand, how transformative was the Argentinian novelist Ricardo Piglia’s final project, a fictional journal in three volumes, Los diarios de Emilio Renzi—Renzi being Piglia’s fictional alter ego. And now here at last is the first volume in English, The Diaries of Emilio Renzi: Formative Years, translated by Robert Croll. It’s something to be celebrated… [It] offer[s] one form of resistance to encroaching fascism: style.” —Adam Thirlwell, BookForum, The Best Books of 2017 “[A] masterpiece…. everything written by Ricardo Piglia, which we read as intellectual fabrications and narrated theories, was partially or entirely lived by Emilio Renzi. The visible, cerebral chronicles hid a secret history that was flesh and bones.” —Jorge Carrión, The New York Times “A valediction from the noted Argentine writer, known for bringing the conventions of hard-boiled U.S. crime drama into Latin American literature...Fans of Cortázar, Donoso, and Gabriel García Márquez will find these to be eminently worthy last words from Piglia." —Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review “When young Ricardo Piglia wrote the first pages of his diaries, which he would work on until the last years of his life, did he have any inkling that they would become a lesson in literary genius and the culmination of one of the greatest works of Argentine literature?” —Samanta Schweblin, author of Fever Dream “Ricardo Piglia, who passed away earlier this year at age seventy-five, is celebrated as one of the giants of Argentine literature, a rightful heir to legends like Borges, Cortázar, Juan Jose Saer, and Roberto Arlt. The Diaries of Emilio Renzi is his life's work...An American equivalent might be if Philip Roth now began publishing a massive, multi-volume autobiography in the guise of Nathan Zuckerman…It is truly a great work...This is a fantastic, very rewarding read—it seems that Piglia has found a form that can admit everything he has to say about his life, and it is a true pleasure to take it in.” —Veronica Esposito, BOMB Magazine “In 1957, Argentinian writer Ricardo Piglia started to write what would become 327 notebooks filled with the thoughts of his alter ego, Emilio Renzi. Piglia’s final literary act before his death in January 2017 was to organize and publish these works as Renzi’s diaries. Formative Years, the first of three volumes, covers the years 1957 to 1967, detailing Renzi’s development into a central figure of Argentine literary culture. In epigrammatic diary entries filled with memorable observations, Piglia details Renzi’s political education, relationships, views on Argentinian politics, and experiences during this remarkably productive era of Latin American fiction. As a fictionalized autobiography, it is, like the work of Karl Ove Knausgaard, of My Struggle fame, part confession and part performance. Renzi meets and corresponds with literary luminaries like Borges, Cortázar, and Márquez, and offers insightful readings of Dostoevsky, Kafka, Faulkner, and Joyce. Ilan Stavans (Quixote: The Novel and the World, 2015) provides a wonderfully informative introduction. Fans of W.G. Sebald and Roberto Bolaño will find the first installment in Piglia’s trilogy to be a fascinating portrait of a writer’s life.” —Alexander Moran, Booklist "Here through the Boom and Bolaño breech storms Ricardo Piglia, not just a great Latin American writer but a great writer of the American continent. Composed across his entire career, The Diaries of Emilio Renzi is Piglia's secret story of his shadow self—a book of disquiet and love and literary obsession that blurs the distinctness of each and the other." —Hal Hlavinka, Community Bookstore (Brooklyn, NY) “In this fictionalized autobiography, Piglia’s ability to succinctly criticize and contextualize major writers from Kafka to Flannery O’Connor is astounding, and the scattering of those insights throughout this diary are a joy to read. This book is essential reading for writers.” —Publishers Weekly “The Diaries of Emilio Renzi is a rare glimpse into the heart of twentieth-century Latin American literature, with the inimitable Ricardo Piglia as tour guide. More than just a traditional diary, Renzi is an illuminating voyage into the hearts of books and writers and history. An inspiring work and an important achievement.” —Mark Haber, Brazos Bookstore (Houston, TX) “The great Argentine writer…. In a career that spanned four decades, during which he became one of Latin America’s most distinctive literary voices.” —Alejandro Chacoff, The New Yorker “The Diaries of Emilio Renzi continue to be a fascinating literary-autobiographical experiment ... and, especially, a wonderful immersion in literature itself. Of particular interest in showing the transition of Latin American (and specifically Argentine) literature—no longer: "out of sync, behind, out of place"—Piglia's range extends far beyond that too. Yes, most of this is presumably mainly of interest to the similarly literature-obsessed—but Piglia makes it hard to imagine who wouldn't be.” — M. A. Orthofer, The Complete Review
