<p><strong>WINNER OF THE WITOLD PILECKI INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARD SPECIAL PRIZE</strong></p> <p>A WATERSTONES AND IRISH TIMESBOOK OF THE YEAR</p> <p><strong>A breathtaking exploration of Ukraine's past, present, and future, and a heartbreaking account of the war against Russia, written by a leading journalist who has lived and worked in Ukraine for over a decade.</strong></p> <p><strong>'Vivid… Shocking… [Miller] brings a seasoned, personal perspective to his account of both the 16-month conflict and its wider roots.'</strong><br /> <em>Daily Telegraph</em></p> <p><strong>'A beautiful blend of memoir, reportage and history...superb.'</strong><br /> <em>Irish Times</em></p> <p><strong>'...powerful and insightful...Miller provides a human dimension to a bloody conflict</strong>.'<br /> <em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p> <p>When Russian President Vladimir Putin launched his unprovoked, full-scale invasion of Ukraine just before dawn on 24 February 2022, it marked his latest and most overt attempt to brutally conquer the country, and reshaped the world order. Christopher Miller, the Ukraine correspondent for the <em>Financial Times</em> and a foremost journalist covering the country, was there on the ground when the first Russian missiles struck and troops stormed over the border. But the seeds of Russia's war against Ukraine and the West were sown more than a decade earlier.</p> <p>This is the definitive, inside story of its long fight for freedom. Told through Miller's personal experiences, vivid front-line dispatches and illuminating interviews with unforgettable characters, <em>The War Came To Us</em> takes readers on a riveting journey through the key locales and pivotal events of Ukraine's modern history. From the coal-dusted, sunflower-covered steppe of the Donbas in the far east to the heart of the Euromaidan revolution camp in Kyiv; from the Black Sea shores of Crimea, where Russian troops stealthily annexed Ukraine's peninsula, to the bloody battlefields where Cossacks roamed before the Kremlin's warlords ruled with iron fists; and through the horror and destruction wrought by Russian forces in Bucha, Bakhmut, Mariupol, and beyond.</p> <p>With candor, wit and sensitivity, Miller captures Ukraine in all its glory: vast, defiant, resilient, and full of wonder. A breathtaking narrative that is at times both poignant and inspiring, <em>The War Came To Us</em> is the story of an American who fell in love with a foreign place and its people - and witnessed them do extraordinary things to escape the long shadow of their former imperial ruler and preserve their independence.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>The first major biography written for a general audience of the logician and mathematician whose Incompleteness Theorems helped launch a modern scientific revolution.</strong></p> <p>Nearly a hundred years after its publication, Kurt G?del’s famous proof that every mathematical system must contain propositions that are trueーyet never provableーcontinues to unsettle mathematics, philosophy, and computer science. Yet unlike Einstein, with whom he formed a warm and abiding friendship, G?del has long escaped all but the most casual scrutiny of his life.</p> <p>Stephen Budiansky’s <em>Journey to the Edge of Reason</em> is the first biography to fully draw upon G?del’s voluminous letters and writingsーincluding a never-before-transcribed shorthand diary of his most intimate thoughtsーto explore G?del’s profound intellectual friendships, his moving relationship with his mother, his troubled yet devoted marriage, and the debilitating bouts of paranoia that ultimately took his life. It also offers an intimate portrait of the scientific and intellectual circles in prewar Vienna, a haunting account of G?del’s and Jewish intellectuals’ flight from Austria and Germany at the start of the Second World War, and a vivid re-creation of the early days of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ, where G?del and Einstein both worked.</p> <p>Eloquent and insightful, <em>Journey to the Edge of Reason</em> is a fully realized portrait of the odd, brilliant, and tormented man who has been called the greatest logician since Aristotle, and illuminates the far-reaching implications of G?del’s revolutionary ideas for philosophy, mathematics, artificial intelligence, and man’s place in the cosmos.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>The deeply reported story of identical twin brothers who escape El Salvador's violence to build new lives in Californiaーfighting to survive, to stay, and to belong.</strong></p> <p><strong>“Impeccably timed, intimately reported, and beautifully expressed.”ー<em>The New York Times</em></strong></p> <p><strong>NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY <em>THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW</em> ? WINNER OF THE RIDENHOUR BOOK PRIZE ? SILVER WINNER OF THE CALIFORNIA BOOK AWARD</strong></p> <p>Growing up in rural El Salvador in the wake of the civil war, the United States was a distant fantasy to identical twins Ernesto and Raul Floresーuntil, at age seventeen, a deadly threat from the region’s brutal gangs forces them to flee the only home they’ve ever known. In this urgent chronicle of contemporary immigration, journalist Lauren Markham follows the Flores twins as they make their way across the Rio Grande and the Texas desert, into the hands of immigration authorities, and from there to their estranged older brother in Oakland, CA. Soon these unaccompanied minors are navigating school in a new language, working to pay down their mounting coyote debt, and facing their day in immigration court, while also encountering the triumphs and pitfalls of teenage life with only each other for support. With intimate access and breathtaking range, Markham offers an unforgettable testament to the migrant experience.</p> <p><strong>FINALIST FOR THE <em>LOS ANGELES TIMES</em> BOOK PRIZE ? SHORTLISTED FOR THE J. ANTHONY LUKAS BOOK PRIZE ? LONGLISTED FOR THE PEN/BOGRAD WELD PRIZE FOR BIOGRAPHY</strong></p> <p>“[This] beautifully written book . . . can be read as a supplement to the current news, a chronicle of the problems that Central Americans are fleeing and the horrors they suffer in flight. But it transcends the crisis. Markham’s deep, frank reporting is also useful in thinking ahead to the challenges of assimilation, for the struggling twins and many others like them. . . . Her reporting is intimate and detailed, and her tone is a special pleasure.

We all should.”<strong>ーNPR</strong></p> <p>“This is the sort of news that is the opposite of fake. . . .

<p><strong>The personally revealing and complete biography of the man known everywhere as “The Oracle of Omaha”ーfor fans of the HBO documentary <em>Becoming Warren Buffett</em></strong></p> <p>Here is <em>the</em> book recounting the life and times of one of the most respected men in the world, Warren Buffett. The legendary Omaha investor has never written a memoir, but now he has allowed one writer, Alice Schroeder, unprecedented access to explore directly with him and with those closest to him his work, opinions, struggles, triumphs, follies, and wisdom.</p> <p>Although the media track him constantly, Buffett himself has never told his full life story. His reality is private, especially by celebrity standards. Indeed, while the homespun persona that the public sees is true as far as it goes, it goes only so far. Warren Buffett is an array of paradoxes. He set out to prove that nice guys can finish first. Over the years he treated his investors as partners, acted as their steward, and championed honesty as an investor, CEO, board member, essayist, and speaker. At the same time he became the world’s richest man, all from the modest Omaha headquarters of his company Berkshire Hathaway. None of this fits the term “simple.”</p> <p>When Alice Schroeder met Warren Buffett she was an insurance industry analyst and a gifted writer known for her keen perception and business acumen. Her writings on finance impressed him, and as she came to know him she realized that while much had been written on the subject of his investing style, no one had moved beyond that to explore his larger philosophy, which is bound up in a complex personality and the details of his life. Out of this came his decision to cooperate with her on the book about himself that he would never write.</p> <p>Never before has Buffett spent countless hours responding to a writer’s questions, talking, giving complete access to his wife, children, friends, and business associatesーopening his files, recalling his childhood. It was an act of courage, as <em>The Snowball</em> makes immensely clear. Being human, his own life, like most lives, has been a mix of strengths and frailties. Yet notable though his wealth may be, Buffett’s legacy will not be his ranking on the scorecard of wealth; it will be his principles and ideas that have enriched people’s lives. This book tells you why Warren Buffett is the most fascinating American success story of our time.</p> <p><strong>Praise for <em>The Snowball</em></strong></p> <p>“Even people who don't care a whit about business will be intrigued by this portrait. . . . Schroeder, a former insurance-industry analyst, spent years interviewing Buffett, and the result is a side of the Oracle of Omaha that has rarely been seen.”<strong>ー<em>Time</em></strong></p> <p>“Will mesmerize anyone interested in who Mr. Buffett is or how he got that way. <em>The Snowball</em> tells a fascinating story.”<strong>ー<em>New York Times</em></strong></p> <p>“If the replication of any great achievement first requires knowledge of how it was done, then<em>The Snowball</em>, the most detailed glimpse inside Warren Buffett and his world that we likely will ever get, should become a Bible for capitalists.”<strong>ー<em>Washington Post</em></strong></p> <p>“Riveting and encyclopedic.”<strong>ー<em>Wall Street Journal</em></strong></p> <p>“A monumental biography . . . Schroeder got the best access yet of any Buffett biographer. . . . She deals out marvelously funny and poignant stories about Buffett and the conglomerate he runs, Berkshire Hathaway.”<strong>ー<em>Forbes</em></strong></p> <p>“The most authoritative portrait of one of the most important American investors of our time.”<strong>ー<em>Los Angeles Times</em></strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
