Dear axolotl: Why do you have feathers growing out of your head? Axolotl: They aren't feathers — they're gills! They let me breathe underwater. Let's face it. Even as babies, we humans pay close attention to faces. Observing another person's features and expressions tells us whether they are happy, angry, excited, or sad. And when we look at an animal, it's hard not to imagine that its face is communicating human feelings. This isn't true, of course. Squinty eyes, an upturned mouth, or another odd expression is probably there because, in some way, it helps that animal survive. Packed with many cool facts and visuals on where certain animals live and what they eat, this book captures twenty-five humorous — and very true-explanations of why animals look the way they do in order to exist in this world.

In a race against time, behind enemy lines, often unarmed, a special force of American and British museum directors, curators, art historians, and others, called the Monuments Men, risked their lives scouring Europe to prevent the destruction of thousands of years of culture. Focusing on the eleven-month period between D-Day and V-E Day, this fascinating account follows six Monuments Men and their impossible mission to save the world's great art from the Nazis.»

TIME Hillary: An American Life
Жанр: Hachette Livre Дата загрузки: 7 декабря 20092002-12-07
|
Hillary Clinton embodies a world of 'firsts': The first First Lady to have an active — and controversial role — in her husband's presidency, the first American First Lady to run for political office (and win it), the first female United States Senator from the state of New York, and certainly not last, nor the least, the most widely traveled Secretary of State in history. With reporting that only TIME magazine can bring to you, this book touches upon the high and low points of her life and career — from her time as First Lady, where she was often criticized for her active and assertive role in Bill Clinton's presidency, to her time in the United States Senate, her historic campaign for the nomination for president, and her decision to serve under the man who would defeat her — Barack Obama — as Secretary of State. This book will also help to dissect what the future might hold for Hillary, whether she chooses to run for office again or decides to remain a private citizen and devote her time to lecturing, teaching, and philanthropy.
