Leo Fender The Quiet Giant Heard Around the World【電子書籍】[ Phyllis Fender ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Occasionally, the world produces one of those rare thinkers that alter the course of history.</p> <p>Disney reinvented entertainment, Einstein revolutionized science, Edison lit up our lives with the light bulb, Bell got the world talking with the telephone … and Fender revolutionized music.</p> <p>If you think about it, Leo Fender has influenced every person on earth today ? at least everyone who has ever heard a song.</p> <p><em>Guitar Player Magazine</em> declared that Clarence Leo Fender is the father of the solid body guitar. Not only did he invent it, but Leo’s guitars were used by everyone from Elvis Presley, to Eric Clapton and from Jimmy Page to Jimmy Hendrix. Indeed, <em>Rolling Stone Magazine</em> published a list of the world's top 100 guitarists, and 90 of them used one of Leo's guitars on stage, and the others used guitars that copied Leo's inventions and concepts.</p> <p>Leo Fender was shy, had one glass eye, and was nearly deaf. Yet, from the small town of Fullerton, California, he built an iconic worldwide empire that is worshiped by the rock stars themselves. The highest price ever spent for music memorabilia was not for Michael Jackson’s glove, original Beatles’ handwritten lyrics or even Elvis’ killer pantsuit. It was for a Fender Stratocaster, which sold for a staggering $2.7 million.</p> <p>Written by the wife of the late Leo Fender, for the very first time, this book provides a rare look into the wonderful mind and world of this quiet genius.</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。 1,172円

Mossad: The Greatest Missions of the Israeli Secret Service (The Stories You Haven’t Heard of Israel’s Most Effective Secret Service)【電子書籍】[ Shelton Branch ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The israeli mossad is known for its covert operations and intelligence-gathering capabilities. In this book, we reveal the behind-the-scenes story of mossad's greatest triumph: the operation to expose iran's nuclear weapons program.</strong></p> <p>Through in-depth research and interviews with key players, the author delves into the tactics and techniques used by mossad to gather evidence of iran's covert nuclear activities. From infiltrating iranian nuclear facilities to recruiting insider sources, this book is a fascinating look at the inner workings of mossad and the lengths it will go to protect the safety and security of israel.</p> <p>Israel, since its formation as a country, has been seen as a usurper of the land formerly owned by its neighbor, palestine. An argument that will continue until one of the countries is either destroyed or disarmed. Palestine, being an arab nation, has many allies in the surrounding areas, giving them a geographical advantage. Be that as it may, the drive and mercilessness of the mossad is able to keep israel’s head above water and their interests intact; however, israel’s national intelligence agency’s reach is far greater than just the middle east. They have a global network.</p> <p>The mossad is one of the most well-known intelligence agencies in the world. It has been involved in some of the most high-profile covert operations in history, from the capture of nazi war criminal adolf eichmann to the assassination of iranian nuclear scientists. Despite its reputation as a secretive organization, the mossad has captured the imagination of people all over the world.</p> <p><strong>This book takes a comprehensive look at the mossad, from its origins in the early days of israel's intelligence community to its current operations and challenges.</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。 442円

The Names Heard Long Ago How the Golden Age of Hungarian Soccer Shaped the Modern Game【電子書籍】[ Jonathan Wilson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The story of the vibrant and revolutionary soccer culture in Hungary that, on the eve of World War II, redefined the modern game and launched a new era.</strong></p> <p>In the early 1950s, the Hungarian side was unbeatable, winning the Olympic gold and thrashing England in the Match of the Century. Their legendary forward, Ferenc Pusk?s, was one of the game's first international superstars. But as Jonathan Wilson reveals in <em>The Names Heard Long Ago</em>, this celebrated era was in fact the final act of the true golden age of Hungarian soccer.</p> <p>In Budapest in the 1920s and 1930s, a new school of soccer emerged that became one of the most influential in the game's history, shaped by brilliant players and coaches who brought mathematical rigor and imagination to the style of play. But with the onset of World War II, many were forced into exile, fleeing anti-Semitism and the rise of fascism.</p> <p>Yet their legacy endured. Against the backdrop of economic and political turmoil between the wars, and in spite of extraordinary odds, Hungary taught the world to play.</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。 1,563円

Bach's Legacy The Music as Heard by Later Masters【電子書籍】[ Russell Stinson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Johann Sebastian Bach's legacy is undeniably one of the richest in the history of music, with a vast influence on posterity that has only grown since his rediscovery in the early nineteenth century. In this latest addition to his long list of Bach studies, renowned Bach scholar Russell Stinson examines how four of the greatest composers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries - Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Richard Wagner, and Edward Elgar - engaged with Bach's legacy, not only as composers per se, but also as performers, conductors, scholars, critics, and all-around musical ambassadors. Detailed analyses of both musical and epistolary sources shed light on how these later masters heard and received Bach's music within their musical circles, while colorful anecdotes about their Bach reception help humanize them, reconstructing the intimate social circumstances in which they performed and discussed Bach's music. Stinson focuses on Mendelssohn's and Schumann's reception of Bach's organ works, Schumann's encounter with the St. Matthew and St. John Passions, Wagner's musings on the Well-Tempered Clavier, and Elgar's (resoundingly negative) thoughts on Bach as a vocal composer. Engagingly written, copiously annotated, and thoroughly up to date, <em>Bach's Legacy</em> traces the historical afterlife of Bach's music and offers fascinating insights into how these later masters defined it for their audiences and beyond.</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。 2,573円

From Servant to Queen: A Journey through Victorian Mathematics【電子書籍】[ John Heard ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>With a few notable exceptions, pure mathematics in Britain at the beginning of the nineteenth century was mainly a recreation for amateurs. Drawing on primary sources, John Heard provides an engaging account of the process by which it rose to become an academic discipline of repute which by the First World War was led by G. H. Hardy, and supported by the internationally-respected London Mathematical Society. In chronicling that rise, this book describes key contributions and the social environment in which mathematicians operated, using contemporary commentary where appropriate. No mathematical knowledge is required, and readers with a wide range of interests and backgrounds will find much to enjoy here. The material is presented from an impartial point of view, and provides full references to help any researchers who want to dig deeper into the original sources. The result is a unique insight into the world of Victorian mathematics and science.</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。 6,904円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A behind-the-scenes look at the groundbreaking filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan</strong></p> <p>In his relatively young career, M. Night Shyamalan has achieved phenomenal commercial and critical success. His films <em>The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs</em>, and <em>The Village</em> have grossed over $1.5 billion and reinvented the thriller genre. Because Shyamalan has worked outside of the Hollywood system, however, his filmmaking habits and personality have remained largely unknown. But reporter Michael Bamberger obtained unprecedented access to Shyamalan during the tumultuous production of his film <em>Lady in the Water</em>, and in <em>The Man Who Heard Voices</em> exposes the struggles and triumphs of this modern-day Hitchcock at work.</p> <p>From revising the screenplay to shooting on location and evaluating the crucial initial test screening, <em>The Man Who Heard Voices</em> tracks all stages in the life of Shyamalan’s film. Bamberger delves into Shyamalan’s relationship with the actors and the studio (he moved from Disney to Warner Bros. for this film) while also profiling various players on set. The result is a fascinating insider portrait of creative geniusーand the real-life story behind a Hollywood thriller.</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。 1,265円

The Wedding Heard 'Round the World America's First Gay Marriage【電子書籍】[ Michael McConnell ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>On September 3, 1971, Michael McConnell and Jack Baker exchanged vows in the first legal same-sex wedding in the United States. Their remarkable story is told here for the first timeーa unique account of the passion and energy of the gay liberation movement in the sixties and seventies.</p> <p>At the dawn of the modern gay movement (while New York’s Stonewall riots and San Francisco’s emerging political activism bloomed), these two young men insisted on making their commitment a legal reality. They were already crusaders for gay rights: Jack had twice been elected the University of Minnesota’s student presidentーthe first openly gay university student president in the country, an election reported by Walter Cronkite on network TV news. They were featured in <em>Look</em> magazine’s special issue about the American family and received letters of support from around the world.</p> <p>The couple navigated complex procedures to obtain a state-issued marriage license. Their ceremony was conducted by a Methodist minister in a friend’s tiny Minneapolis apartment. Wearing matching white pantsuits, exchanging custom-designed rings, and sharing a tiered wedding cake, Michael and Jack celebrated their historic marriage. After reciting their vows, they sealed their promise to love and honor each other with a kiss and a signed marriage certificate.</p> <p>Repercussions were immediate: Michael’s job offer at the University of Minnesota was rescinded, leading him to wage a battle against job discrimination with the help of the Minnesota Civil Liberties Union. The couple eventually reached the U.S. Supreme Court with two precedent-setting cases.</p> <p>Michael and Jack have retired from the public spotlight, but after four decades their marriage is still their joy and comfort. Living quietly in a Minneapolis bungalow, they exemplify a contemporary version of the American dream. Only now, with marriage equality in the headlines and the Supreme Court decision to make love the law of the land, are they willing to tell the entire story of their groundbreaking experiences. <em>TIME</em> magazine listed the twenty-five most influential marriages of all time and included Michael and Jack, and they were recently profiled in a cover story in the Sunday <em>New York Times.</em> Their long campaign for marriage equality and insistence on equal rights for all citizens is a model for advocates of social justice and an inspiration for everyone who struggles for acceptance in a less-than-equal world.</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。 2,990円

Written to Be Heard Recovering the Messages of the Gospels【電子書籍】[ Paul Borgman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Recovers the lost messages of Mark, Matthew, Luke-Acts, and John for people today</em></p> <p>The words of the gospels were meant to be <em>heard</em>. While we can still appreciate the construction and grasp some understanding when we read, we miss much of the message because we’re working in the wrong medium. In <em>Written to Be Heard</em> Paul Borgman and Kelly James Clark offer the keys to recovering the radical, relevant messages of each gospel as they were first heard.</p> <p>The shaping of the gospels for oral performances, which would have been obvious to ancient (mostly preliterate) listeners, is lost on even the best contemporary reader. With careful analysis of the gospel writers’ particular voices within their own ancient literary context, Borgman and Clark equip readers to read as if hearing, focusing on overlapping patterns of hearing cues that shape each text and embed theological perspective.</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。 4,884円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Market Wizards are back! Unknown Market Wizards continues in the three-decade tradition of the hugely popular Market Wizards series, interviewing exceptionally successful traders to learn how they achieved their extraordinary performance results. The twist in Unknown Market Wizards is that the featured traders are individuals trading their own accounts. They are unknown to the investment world. Despite their anonymity, these traders have achieved performance records that rival, if not surpass, the best professional managers. Some of the stories include: - A trader who turned an initial account of $2,500 into $50 million. - A trader who achieved an average annual return of 337% over a 13-year period. - A trader who made tens of millions using a unique approach that employed neither fundamental nor technical analysis. - A former advertising executive who used classical chart analysis to achieve a 58% average annual return over a 27-year trading span. - A promising junior tennis player in the UK who abandoned his quest for a professional sporting career for trading and generated a nine-year track record with an average annual return just under 300%. World-renowned author and trading expert Jack D. Schwager is our guide. His trademark knowledgeable and sensitive interview style encourages the Wizards to reveal the fascinating details of their training, experience, tactics, strategies, and their best and worst trades. There are dashes of humour and revelations about the human side of trading throughout. The result is a engrossing new collection of trading wisdom, brimming with insights that can help all traders improve their outcomes.</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。 2,768円

On Keeping My Mouth Shut in Sunday School Being a Very Long Alternative Sunday School Lesson to the One I Just Heard【電子書籍】[ James Lutzweiler ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book is simply a written Sunday school lesson rather than the oral variety. The primary topic is war and the relationship of a Christian to it. While someday war shall be studied no more, that day has not yet arrived. This book chronicles with specific examples how a few Christians like Rev. J. J. Taylor, Alvin York, Vernon Grounds, Franz Jagerstatter, and the author himself have approached the topic. Dietrich Bonhoeffer also makes a guest appearance, as do Tolstoy, Gandhi, and MLK. The book does not advocate a pure pacifism. The author has not solved all the problems associated with that viewpoint and does not know anyone who has. But it does argue for peacemaking, the likes of which is addressed by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount and by St. Paul, who urges us to wrestle with principalities and powers, i.e., ideas, and not to wrestle with flesh and blood. This the author has tried to do within these peacemaking pages and the comparative safety of his laptop and life in bucolic and pastoral Jamestown, North Carolina.</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。 1,954円
