Alex struggles to make sense of what is happening around him but continues to betray his true stance in the face of uncertainty. He is young and he is strong and he refuses to reveal any weakness to his closest peers let alone his family.＜br /＞ His father is jobless, accused of playing a role in a recent death at a city construction site and appears to be going slowly insane. His mother is the quintessential Italian mother, extremely melodramatic, overly anxious and irrevocably pessimistic, and his best friends are simply too busy enjoying their youth. To top it off, The Talon Street Gang have decided that the next venue for their revered "Scaffold Party" will be at the very construction site his father was dismissed from. It wouldn't be so bad if Alex wasn't also having nightmares every night about some vindictive dead guy… Now he can't help but fear for his friends' lives, especially that of his secret love, Chiara.＜/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。 | 350円 |

 LEGO Studies Examining the Building Blocks of a Transmedial Phenomenon【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Since the "Automatic Binding Bricks" that LEGO produced in 1949, and the LEGO "System of Play" that began with the release of Town Plan No. 1 (1955), LEGO bricks have gone on to become a global phenomenon, and the favorite building toy of children, as well as many an AFOL (Adult Fan of LEGO). LEGO has also become a medium into which a wide number of media franchises, including ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞, ＜em＞Harry Potter＜/em＞, ＜em＞Pirates of the Caribbean＜/em＞, ＜em＞Batman＜/em＞, ＜em＞Superman＜/em＞, ＜em＞Lord of the Rings＜/em＞, and others, have adapted their characters, vehicles, props, and settings. The LEGO Group itself has become a multimedia empire, including LEGO books, movies, television shows, video games, board games, comic books, theme parks, magazines, and even MMORPGs.＜/p＞ ＜p＞LEGO Studies: Examining the Building Blocks of a Transmedial Phenomenon is the first collection to examine LEGO as both a medium into which other franchises can be adapted and a transmedial franchise of its own. Although each essay looks at a particular aspect of the LEGO phenomenon, topics such as adaptation, representation, paratexts, franchises, and interactivity intersect throughout these essays, proposing that the study of LEGO as a medium and a media empire is a rich vein barely touched upon in Media Studies.＜/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。 | 9,116円 |

 The Merchant Prince of Black Chicago Anthony Overton and the Building of a Financial Empire【電子書籍】[ Robert E. Weems Jr. ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Born to enslaved parents, Anthony Overton became one of the leading African American entrepreneurs of the twentieth century. Overton's Chicago-based empire ranged from personal care products and media properties to insurance and finance. Yet, despite success and acclaim as the first business figure to win the NAACP's Spingarn Medal, Overton remains an enigma.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Robert E. Weems Jr. restores Overton to his rightful place in American business history. Dispelling stubborn myths, he traces Overton's rise from mentorship by Booker T. Washington, through early failures, to a fateful move to Chicago in 1911. There, Overton started a popular magazine aimed at African American women that helped him dramatically grow his cosmetics firm. Overton went on to become the first African American to head a major business conglomerate, only to lose significant parts of his businessesーand his public persona as ”the merchant prince of his race”ーin the Depression, before rebounding once again in the early 1940s.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Revealing and panoramic, ＜em＞The Merchant Prince of Black Chicago＜/em＞ weaves the fascinating life story of an African American trailblazer through the eventful history of his times.＜/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。 | 1,947円 |

 Wings and the Child: The Building of Magic Cities【電子書籍】[ E. Nesbit ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞When this book first came to my mind it came as a history and theory of the building of Magic Cities on tables, with bricks and toys and little things such as a child may find and use. But as I kept the thought by me it grew and changed, as thoughts will do, until at last it took shape as an attempt to contribute something, however small and unworthy, to the science of building a magic city in the soul of a child, a city built of all things pure and fine and beautiful. As you read, it will, I hope, seem to you that something of what I say is trueーin much, no doubt, it will seem to you that I am mistaken; but however you may disagree with me, you will, I trust, at least have faith in the honesty of my purpose. If I seem to you to be too dogmatic, to lay down the law too much as though I were the teacher and you the learner, I beg you to believe that it is in no such spirit that I have written. Rather it is as though you and I, spending a quiet evening[viii] by your fire, talked together of the things that matter, and as though I laid before you all the things that were in my heartーnot stopping at every turn to say "Do you not think so too?" and "I hope you agree with me?" but telling you, straight from the heart, what I have felt and thought and, I humbly say, known about children and the needs of children. I have talked to you as to a friend, without the reservations and apologies which we use with strangers. And if, in anything, I shall have offended you, I entreat you to extend to me the forgiveness and the forbearance which you would exercise towards a friend who had offended you, not meaning to offend, and to believe that I have spoken to you as frankly and plainly as I would wish you to speak to me, were you the writer and I the reader.

 The Building of the System【電子書籍】[ Charles Webster Leadbeater ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Our solar system has seven planes which, when taken together, form the lowest of the great cosmic planes. There was a time when this cosmic plane consisted only of what was to it atomic matter, that is to say, of the bubbles in koilon. That was the condition existing on what we may call the site of the solar system. When the Solar LOGOS chose to manifest Himself, when He came forth out of eternity into time, and wished to form this system, He commenced first of all by defining an area, the limit perhaps of His own aura.＜/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。 | 101円 |
 Model Aeroplanes: The Building of Model Monoplanes, Biplanes Together with a Chapter on Building a Model Airship【電子書籍】[ F. J. Camm ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞If a kite is launched in a wind it speedily attains a certain height or altitude, at which it remains so long as the wind does not drop. The wind is overcoming gravity, which constantly endeavours to bring the kite to earth, and hence, since the kite remains in the air, the forces acting on the kite are said to be in equilibriumーthat is, balanced. The forces include gravity, which is practically constant and remains unaltered under all conditions, the air pressure which, when sufficiently intense, lifts the kite against the action of gravity, and the pull of the string. The air pressure is really a combination of two forcesーlift and drift. The drift or resistance tends to move the kite in the direction of the wind, and lift to raise the kite in opposition to gravity. Since, therefore, drift is an undesirable factor, the resistance of the machine must be made as low as possible, as it absorbs power, as will clearly be seen. If the velocity of the wind drops, the kite drops also, increasing its angle with the horizon, thereby causing it to capture and force down more air until equilibrium is again restored. If the string of a kite breaks, the balance of the forces is destroyed, drift and gravity taking command and so bringing the kite to earth. If it takes a wind of fifteen miles an hour to lift a kite, similarly it would lift to exactly the same elevation if the holder of the kite-string commenced to run at a rate of fifteen miles per hour in calm air. Now, an aeroplane is merely a kite with a mechanical arrangement (the engine and propeller) which supplies the motion necessary to fly it, and eliminates the necessity for a wind. This statement can easily be followed. In the aforementioned parallel it was seen that it was immaterial whether the kite-flyer was standing still with the wind moving at fifteen miles per hour, or whether he was moving at the rate of fifteen miles per hour in still air. The result in each case is the sameーthe kite flies. It has been stated that if the kite-string fractured the kite would fall to the ground. If, however, it were possible at the moment of rupture to attach a weightless engine and air-screw to the kite capable of exerting a forward push equal to the drift, the kite would still remain in the air. Again, if the wind were suddenly to stop, and the engine and air-screw were capable of moving the kite forward at the same rate at which the wind was blowing, the kite would fly, and in all important respects would constitute an aeroplane. The kite, it will be assumed, requires a minimum speed of fifteen miles per hour in order to sustain itself. If the wind be blowing at fifteen miles an hour the operator can remain stationary. If it blows at ten miles an hour he must run at five miles an hour against the wind. If it blows at five miles an hour he must run at ten miles an hour against the wind, or twenty miles per hour with the wind to maintain the kite. Hence an aeroplane really has two speedsーits speed relative to the earth and its air speed. The former is the rate of which it would travel a given distance, and the latter is the sum of the speed relative to the earth and the velocity of the wind. It can readily be seen that an aeroplane travelling at ten miles an hour relative to the earth against a fifteen-mile-an-hour wind has really an air speed of twenty-five miles an hour. When the aeroplane, however, is travelling with the wind, the air speed is the speed relative to the earth minus the velocity of the wind.＜/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。 | 1,200円 |

 Rufus Woods, the Columbia River, and the Building of Modern Washington【電子書籍】[ Robert E. Ficken ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Rufus Woods, editor and publisher of the ＜em＞Wenatchee Daily World＜/em＞ for more than forty years, has been called the “High Priest of the Columbia River.” From his editorial platform, Woods tirelessly promoted Wenatchee and north central Washington and advocated for Columbia River development. He pegged his brightest hopes on a huge dam to be built in the isolated Grand Coulee region.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A founding member of the “Dam University,” Woods--through the ＜em＞World＜/em＞--helped to keep the drive for the structure alive. From 1918 through Grand Coulee’s completion in 1941, he was the leading promoter of the largest dam-building project in American history.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Utilizing his newspaper and his extensive political contacts at state and national levels, Woods helped convince President Franklin Roosevelt, Congress, and the Bureau of Reclamation that the grandiose scheme was attainable. Where others despaired, he never faltered. Speaking before the 1942 Grand Coulee High School graduating class, Woods proudly boasted of the accomplishment that he helped see to reality.＜/p＞ ＜p＞“So here it stands, a monument to the idea and the power of an idea; a monument to an organization; a monument to cooperation. You, class of 1942, could you come back here in a thousand years hence, you would hear the sojourners talking as they behold this ‘slab of concrete,’ and you would hear them say, ‘Here in 1942, indeed, there once lived a great people.’”＜/p＞ ＜p＞Woods got his dam, but not the Wenatchee boom he desired. Possible only because of federal financing, those in control imposed a vast maze of power lines emanating from the dam’s huge hydroelectric plant. Cities like Portland and Seattle benefited from its power much more than Wenatchee. Even so, Woods’s beloved adopted home grew tremendously during his lifetime, and much of that economic development can be attributed to his single-minded efforts.＜/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。 | 3,249円 |

 Devices and Desires Bess of Hardwick and the Building of Elizabethan England【電子書籍】[ Kate Hubbard ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Aided by a quartet of judicious marriages and a shrewd head for business, Bess of Hardwick rose from humble beginnings to become one of the most respected and feared countesses in Elizabethan Englandーan entrepreneur who built a family fortune; created glorious houses (the last and greatest built when she was a widow in her 70s); and was deeply involved in matters of the court, including the custody of Mary, Queen of Scots.＜/p＞ ＜p＞While Bess cultivated many influential cour-tiers, she also collected numerous enemies. Her embittered fourth husband once called her a woman of "devices and desires," while male historians of the nineteenth century portrayed her as a monsterー"a woman of masculine understanding and conduct, proud, furious, selfish, and unfeeling." In the twenty-first century, she has been neutered by female historians, who recast her as a softhearted sort, much maligned and misunderstood. As Kate Hubbard reveals, the truth of this highly accomplished woman lies somewhere in between: ruthless and scheming, Bess was sentimental and affectionate as well.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hubbard draws on more than 230 of Bess's letters, including correspondence with the queen and her councilors, fond (and furious) missives to her husbands and children, and notes sharing titillating court gossip. The result is a rich, compelling portrait of a true feminist icon centuries ahead of her timeーa complex, formidable, and decidedly modern woman captured in full as never before.＜/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。 | 1,440円 |

 Patriots Twice Former Confederates and the Building of America after the Civil War【電子書籍】[ Stephen M. Hood ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A "timely" look at the roles played by ex-Confederates after the war, in politics, academia, the military, industry, and more ( ＜em＞Midwest Book Review＜/em＞).＜/strong＞＜br /＞ The long and bloody American Civil War claimed the lives of more than 700,000 men. When it ended, former opponents worked to rebuild their reunified nation and move into the future together. Many people will find that surprisingーespecially in an era witnessing the destruction or removal of Confederate monuments and the desecration of Confederate cemeteries.＜br /＞ In this unique and timely book, award-winning author Stephen M. Hood identifies more than three hundred former Confederate soldiers, sailors, and government officials who reintegrated into American society and attained positions of authority and influence in the federal government, the United States military, academia, science, commerce, and industry. Their contributions had a long-lasting and positive influence on the country we have today.＜br /＞ For example, ten postwar presidents appointed former Confederates as Supreme Court justices, secretaries of the U.S. Navy, attorneys general, and a secretary of the interior. Dozens of former Southern soldiers were named U.S. ambassadors and consuls, and eight were appointed generals who commanded troops during the Spanish-American War. Former Confederates were elected mayors of such unlikely cities as Los Angeles, Minneapolis, and Santa Fe, and served as governors of multiple non-Confederate states and territories.＜br /＞ Ex-Southern soldiers became presidents of professional societies including the American Bar Association and the American Medical Association, to name only a few. Others paved the way in science and engineering by leading the American Society of Civil Engineers, the American Chemical Society, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the Geological Society of America. One former Confederate co-founded the environmental preservation group Sierra Club, and another was president of the Society for Classical Studies.＜br /＞ Former soldiers in gray founded or co-founded many colleges and universitiesーsome exclusively for women and newly freed African-Americans. Other former Rebels served as presidents of prominent institutions, including the University of California, Berkeley, and taught at universities outside the South including Harvard, Yale, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Johns Hopkins, and Amherst College. Several others served on the governing boards of the United States Military Academy at West Point and the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis.＜br /＞ Every reader of ＜em＞Patriots Twice＜/em＞ has benefited from the post-Civil War reconciliation when former combatants put down their swords, picked up their plowshares, and accepted the invaluable contributions of these (and thousands of other) former Confederates. The men who carried the bayonets found common cause and moved on together. This is an important concept everyone shouldーno, mustーembrace to keep America united, strong, and free.＜/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。 | 1,760円 |
 The Complete Procopius The Wars of Justinian, the Secret History of the Court of Justinian, and the Buildings of Justinian【電子書籍】[ Procopius of Caesarea ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞"The Complete Procopius Anthology" contains the complete works of Procopius of Caesarea, including "The Buildings of Justinian" in digital ebook format for the first time, as well as "The Wars of Justinian", and "The Secret History of the Courts of Justinian".＜/p＞ ＜p＞Procopius of Caesarea was a prominent Byzantine scholar from the region of Palaestina Prima, and is widely considered to be the last major historian of the Ancient World. He accompanied the Byzantine general Belisarius in the wars of the Emperor Justinian I, enabling him to write "The Wars of Justinian" from a first-hand perspective.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The celebrated "Secret History of the Court of Justinian" was discovered in the library of the Vatican in 1623, and published to tremendous interest. It reveals Procopius as a man deeply disillusioned with the Emperor Justinian and his wife the Empress Theodora. Procopius delivers a comprehensive character assassination of Justinian as a cruel, vulgar, venal and incompetent leader, and Theodora as a lustful and mean-spirited woman.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This unexpurgated anthology has been compiled by www.Bybliotech.org and optimised for e-readers. It includes an active table of contents for ease of navigation, and features unique illustrations as frontispieces for the individual books in the anthology.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Please visit our website at www.bybliotech.org to browse our extensive range of titles from the Ancient 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。 | 299円 |
