Os Maias crônica de costumes, retratando, com muito humor, a Lisboa da segunda metade do século XIX, obra-prima de Eça de Queirós, publicada em 1888, e uma das mais importantes de toda a literatura portuguesa, pela linguagem em que está escrita e pela fina ironia com que o autor define os caracteres e apresenta as situações. É um romance realista (e naturalista), onde não faltam o fatalismo, a análise social, as peripécias e a catástrofe próprios do enredo passional.é também um pretexto para o autor fazer uma crítica à situação decadente do país (a nível político e cultural) e à alta burguesia lisboeta oitocentista, por onde perpassa um humor (ora fino, ora satírico) que configura a derrota e o desengano de todas as personagens.

Neste livro encontram-se contos fantásticos que mantêm viva a memória da criação folclórica da população alemã.

By the late nineteenth century, Belfast had developed into one of the great industrial cities in the Empire. Much of this new-found wealth was based on the manufacture of linen, principally in both the Lagan Valley and the Bann Valley. The River Bann is the longest river in Northern Ireland, flowing for eighty miles from the Mourne Mountains and eventually entering the sea north of Coleraine.The water power of the River Bann was a significant factor leading to the early establishment of the linen industry in the rich farmland around Banbridge and Gilford. Portadown also had a considerable linen industry, along with the famed excellence of early hand loom weaving around Lurgan. Many of the linen barons lived in resplendent houses near the linen works they had already established close to the River Bann.The Linen Houses of the Bann Valley provides an illustrated and informed commentary on the major linen families and the magnificent houses they lived in along the Bann Valley in the eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The images - exterior views of the actual houses, interior scenes of the stately rooms and portraits of their owners, many selected from private collections of the families themselves - present tantalising and poignant glimpses of a bygone age.

A sexy contemporary New Adult romance featuring one woman and two men, but instead of having a traditional love triangle, their relationship is going to be a complicated one.

Hospitality is a hallmark of South Asia that I have enthusiastically embraced wherever life has taken me. The world of diplomacy revolves around forging connections, and I encouraged my husband to invite people home. Sometimes the dinner table was a more relaxed place to resolve issues that were challenging to navigate in the hallowed halls of the United Nations.Home entertaining is not for everyone. People with fully staffed establishments have conniptions over an extra couple joining them for a meal. Others I know will gladly host ten in a studio apartment and be having fun the whole time. I was always so engrossed in hosting that I never really stopped to think what I was doing until Covid-19 suddenly disrupted life, as we knew it. Discovering the trail of that experience compelled me to honor, through food and remembrances, the people who have come through my life. In this work, experiences, dishes, and people mingle in an assemblage that I hope captures the fusion of our life.Most of the recipes here are staples that saw me through the busiest times, made in bulk for a formal gathering, and then stored, ready to be defrosted for undergrads arriving off the Chinatown bus. South Asian cuisine caters to households bursting at the seams. But beyond the recipes, I also hope to impart an outlook on connections and entertaining at home.

This is a lovely love story filled with ardor and longing. This is a wonderful statement on how wholesome living and selfless service increase love. David Langston, the man, is a guy of strength, honesty, and straightforwardness, not to be put above tenderness, gentleness, and kindness. Move over, Mr. Darcy. The Harvester who appears in the story takes the candlestick and the knife box, opens the door, and then goes back to the stoop. With begging in his eyes, Belshazzar stood up and took a few steps forward slowly. The man ignored it completely as he knelt over his work. A nighttime love song could be heard coming from across Loon Lake. When he was a young boy, he had retreated from such messages until his mother told him that a small brown owl had written them. Belshazzar mustered the fortitude to take five steps forward after hearing the Harvester chuckle before he fell back to the ground. A line of golden light that ran parallel to the water from the opposing bank to the gravel bed below was cast by the moonlight as it struck the lake's gently rippling waves. Behind her was a shimmering mist, and as she drew closer he could see she was even more beautiful than he had imagined.

Babies don't care about the family book and biology when they are bonding. If their parents are failing, they choose other relational supports, stable and reassuring. Their survival depends on it.

For the specialists, there is no longer any doubt: television is a scourge. It has a profoundly negative influence. These facts are denied with fascinating aplomb by the audiovisual industry.

Next Level Leadership From Dishwasher to Franchise Owner21 Lessons That Took My Career To The Next LevelI've spent my entire career in the restaurant business. I've worked every position from the dish pit to the executive office. I've managed single units and supported entire regions. I've enjoyed the fruits of success and felt the pain of failure. All valuable lessons in their own right.As I was traveling the country growing a national brand as a franchise consultant, I was also spending my nights and weekends building a business of my own. Anyone who has ever run a restaurant will tell you it's no easy business. Managing people is extremely delicate especially when those people are needed to run a business. Some people love it and some people are plain terrible at it. I've always loved being the leader of the team and especially being a person that others could count on. Spending time in hundreds of restaurants I've learned that it's ultimately the skill and aptitude of the leader in a restaurant that determines the level of success or even causes a businesses failure.The Manager. That's who makes or breaks a restaurant.I also learned that most managers weren't being properly trained to manage their teams. Almost every brand I worked with did a great job teaching the technical stuff. None of them taught the real skills that their leaders needed. Not even me with my team!That's where the lessons in this book were formed. I needed the manager of my restaurant to develop the soft skills he needed in order to properly lead the team and grow the business. However, since I was spending more time in hotels than at home it was really tough for us to find the one on one time to pour into him. So, it started as daily emails with a short lesson and a piece of motivation to keep him encouraged. I wanted him to think the way that was thinking so I taught him the things that had been most impactful to my career. Skills like planning, organization, routine & mindset. Those lessons became an email course that I began sharing with other leaders on my team and people that were close to me. One of which called me to say "this course has literally changed me! You have to put this out for everyone."So what began as a series of emails between myself and someone on my team is now the book you have in front of you now.21 practical lessons that will help you think like a next level leader in order to help you become a leader on the next level.

La sarcoidosis es una enfermedad inflamatoria autoinmune que puede afectar a prácticamente cualquier órgano o sistema de nuestro cuerpo, por lo que se la considera como una enfermedad autoinmune sistémica. Se caracteriza por la formación de granulomas, principalmente en los pulmones, aunque puede afectar a cualquier otro órgano (piel, ojos, hígado, riñón, corazón, sistema nervioso, huesos y articulaciones, entre otros). Esta monografía ha sido coordinada por los doctores Pilar Brito-Zerón, Jacobo Sellarés, Roberto Pérez Álvarez, Lucio Pallarés y Manuel Ramos-Casals, y comprende diversas actualizaciones en aspectos de especial relevancia para abordar de un modo integral dicha enfermedad, desde la etiología y la geoepidemiología, las manifestaciones clínicas -con énfasis en las que ocasionan mayor morbilidad, como la afectación pulmonar y neurológica-, así como las terapias actuales o los consejos dirigidos a los pacientes.La colección Avances en enfermedades autoinmunes sistémicas, dirigida por el doctor Ricard Cervera, jefe del Servicio de Enfermedades Autoinmunes del Hospital Clínic de Barcelona y del Equipo de Investigación en Enfermedades Autoinmunes Sistémicas del Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer (IDIBAPS) de Barcelona.

Se suele pensar en la creatividad como si fuera un don; una cualidad exclusiva de unas pocas personas que nacieron tocadas por una varita mágica. Aquellas que se entregan al arte, el diseño, la música... todavía aparecen en el imaginario colectivo casi como divinidades situadas al margen de la uniformidad que domina al resto de la gente, la cual no puede hacer nada para cambiar su situación.Llorenç Guilera rompe con este tópico. Estudia a fondo la creatividad desde una perspectiva psicosocial y la entiende no tanto como un don, sino como una actitud en la vida. El punto de partida de la persona creativa es el inconformismo, y aprende a observar con ojos críticos para anticiparse a las necesidades de la sociedad. Identificará un problema, lo analizará y, con reglas, técnicas y métodos, propondrá más de una solución.Anatomía de la creatividad es un libro con una vertiente teórica, necesaria para entender los mecanismos de la creatividad, y con otra práctica muy útil para quienes pretenden fomentar su propia creatividad o la de su alumnado o la de su equipo de trabajo. Sintetiza todas las barreras psicológicas que pueden afectar a la creatividad y propone formas de superarlas. Todo ello se complementa con unos anexos de actividades prácticas.

Esta obra es un ensayo sobre la creatividad desde distintos puntos de vista.El libro empieza planteando en qué situaciones puede emerger la creatividad, que necesariamente ha de venir de la percepción y tiene que darse en un contexto de libertad. Con unas explicaciones que en cierto sentido son poéticas, el lugar en que somos creativos es visto a modo de utopía, el no lugar.El autor, Daniel Yacubovich, es artista, profesor y diseñador. Desde estas actividades se plantea las relaciones del arte y el diseño como elementos de gran valor creativo para la sociedad. Nos habla de arte utilizado políticamente, de productos y consumismo, de creatividad limitada, etc. Otro elemento fundamental del libro es la vertiente y la función que la escuela debería desempeñar a la hora de promover la creatividad, que en este ámbito se está perdiendo.La segunda parte del libro funciona a modo de homenaje a la diseñadora Ray Kaizer Eames. Se exponen algunos objetos de mobiliario y sillas diseñados por ella. Los asientos, debido a su presencia y, por otra parte, por su plano sugerente de una ausencia, se tornan un argumento central para explorar espacios diversos, que se manifiestan como espacios utópicos.Este libro se adentra en algunas formas de entrenar a personas corredoras de fondo de la creatividad.
