Surely You're Joking Mr Feynman - Adventures Of A Curious Character
WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY BILL GATESIn this warm, insightful portrait of the Winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1965, we see the wisdom, humour and curiosity of Richard Feynman through a series of conversations with his friend Ralph Leighton. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1965, Richard Feynman was one of the world's greatest theoretical physicists, but he was also a man who fell, often jumped, into adventure. An artist, safecracker, practical joker and storyteller, Feynman's life was a series of combustible combinations made possible by his unique mixture of high intelligence, unquenchable curiosity and eternal scepticism.Over a period of years, Feynman's conversations with his friend Ralph Leighton were first taped and then set down as they appear here, little changed from their spoken form, giving a wise, funny, passionate and totally honest self-portrait of one of the greatest men of our age.

Brighton Rock
Första boken i Graham Greenes stora romankvartett Den hänsynslöse gangstern Pinkie Brown är fast besluten att befästa sin position inom Brightons undre värld. Efter att i en brutal uppvisning av makt ha mördat journalisten Fred Hale inser Pinkie att den sextonåriga servitrisen Rose på egen hand kan få alla hans planer att falla samman. För att hindra det bestämmer sig Pinkie för att uppvakta henne och så småningom gifta sig med henne. Det leder till en komplicerad relation där makt, manipulation och känslor kolliderar. Samtidigt börjar den moraliskt drivna Ida Arnold komma Pinkie och hans gäng på spåren.Brighton Rock är den första av Graham Greenes romaner att ta sig an de komplexa katolska teman som kom att prägla flera av hans senare böcker. Det är också en av Greenes mest framgångsrika romaner, som sedan den publicerades 1938 åtskilliga gånger adapterats till teater, musikal, radio och film.I översättning av Erik Lindegren. GRAHAM GREENE [1904-1991] är en av Storbritanniens största romanförfattare genom tiderna. Hans författarskap kan delas in i två verk, romankvartetten som kommit att kallas »den katolska romanens guldstandard«: Brighton Rock, Makten & härligheten, Hjärtpunkten och Slutet på historien - och de politiska romanerna, som kommit att tillhöra världslitteraturens mest klassiska spionthrillers: Hemlig agent, Den tredje mannen, Den stillsamme amerikanen, Vår man i Havanna och Den mänskliga faktorn. Graham Greene var vid två tillfällen - 1961 och 1967 - en av huvudkandidaterna till Nobelpriset i litteratur.
