Shuker Karl Dragons. A natural history For millennia, few animals have fascinated mankind more than dragons. But until now, no rigorous survey has captured them in all their glorious variety. Dragons: A Natural History is that survey...a one-of-a-kind book, bringing these captivating creatures to life with lavish illustrations and vivid commentary. This marvelous compendium will take you on a journey that begins with the earliest serpent dragons and continues to the present day. Along the way, Dr. Karl Shuker, one of the world's leading experts on dracontology, shares his wealth of knowledge on:
Dragon dwellings: These magnificent beasts have been found in an astounding number of places. Dragons and their near relatives have found niches in every ecosystem on the planet -- from the mountains of Greece to the forests of northern Europe to the volcanic plain of Mesoamerica to the river valleys of China -- and have, as a consequence, become deeply embedded in human culture.
Dragon variety: Here are five main types of dragons, emerging from the floods or flames of history - the frightening Serpents, Wyverns, and Classical Dragons of the West; the Sky Dragons, including beneficent Chinese Dragons, Amphipteres, and winged New World species; the Neo-Dragons such as the Basilisk, Salamander, and the like; as well as dozens of varieties and subspecies, including orms, guivres, lindorms, and more.
Dragon traditions: From St. George's batwinged, scaly-legged adversary to Wagner's Fafnir to Quetzalcoatl, mythic dragons have been a powerful presence in the legends of humanity. Each of them is described and illustrated in Dragons: A Natural History.

Burton Holmes Burton Holmes Travelogues. The greatest Traveler of His Time, 1892-1952 It was the Belle Еpoque, a time before air travel or radio, at the brink of a revolution in photography and filmmaking, when Burton Holmes began a lifelong journey to bring the world home. From the grand boulevards of Paris to China's Great Wall, from the construction of the Panama canal to the 1906 eruption of Mount Vesuvius, Holmes delighted in finding "the beautiful way around the world" and made a career of sharing his stories, colorful photographs, and films with audiences across America. As a young man, Holmes was mentored by John L. Stoddard, a pioneer of the U.S. travelecture circuit, who passed on his well-established mantle when he retired. Holmes roamed the globe throughout the summer and traversed the United States all winter, transforming the staid lecture tradition into an entertaining show. He coined the term "travelogue" in 1904 to advertise his unique performance and thrilled audiences with two-hour sets of stories timed to projections of multihued hand-painted glass-lantern slides and some of the first "moving pictures."
Paris, Peking, Dehli, Dubrovnik, Moscow, Manila, Jakarta, Jerusalem: Burton Holmes was there. He visited every continent and nearly every country on the planet, shooting over 30,000 photographs and nearly 500,000 feet of film. This book represents the best of the Holmes archive, brimming with brilliant color photographs not published in decades. A rare window on the world of 100 years ago, Burton Holmes Travelogues will transport you to a time that has all but evaporated, and inspire you to strike out on a journey of your own.

Summers Andy Andy Summers. I'll be watching you. Inside the police 1980-83 In the early 1980s, The Police went on tour accompanied by a photographer who documented the band behind the scenes in a series of candid and striking black and white photos. This talented photographer also happened to be the band's guitarist, Andy Summers. Yes, it's true - the man responsible for the guitar lick from "Every Breath You Take" was not only the backbone of one of the most popular bands of all time, he also possessed a visual gift for composition and mood that allowed him to capture the spirit of The Police better than anyone else could have.
This book, somewhere between photojournalism and an illustrated diary, follows The Police around the globe between 1980 and 1983. From the American West to Australia to Japan, Summers recorded not only the band members rehearsing and partying - the proverbial sex, drugs, and rock and roll-he also photographed fans, landscapes, still lifes, and passersby in a reportage style reminiscent of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Frank.
Containing over 600 photos and filled with diary-style entries, "I'll Be Watching You: Inside the Police 1980-83" is a sumptuous volume beating with musical energy, nostalgia, and atmospheric beauty. A must for photo buffs and Police fans alike.
- Contains over 600 photographs personally selected from the photographer's archive of over 25,000 thousand negatives (1980-83).
- Most photos are previously unpublished, and many of them have never even been printed prior to this project.

Старк Вадим Петрович Наталья Гончарова Все, кто знал Наталью Гончарову, сходились в одном: она была изумительной красавицей. Свет ревниво следил за ее успехами, пристально всматривался в ее поступки. Сплетники злословили по поводу ее отношений с Дантесом, приписывали ей равнодушие и прозвали "кружевной душой". Даже влюбленный в нее Дантес отказывал ей в уме. Многие считали ее виновницей гибели Пушкина. Сам же он называл Натали не только своей Мадонной, но также "женкой" и "бой-бабой". Она воспитала семерых собственных и троих приемных детей.
Жизнь Натальи Николаевны, в 18 лет ставшей женой первого поэта России, а в 24 года оставшейся вдовой, по сей день вызывает споры, рождает мифы и разноречивые толки. Книга доктора филологических наук Вадима Старка рассказывает о женщине, ставшей источником вдохновения для Пушкина, о ее истинной роли в истории роковой дуэли, о дальнейшей судьбе той, которой Пушкин писал: "С твоим лицом ничего сравнить нельзя на свете - а душу твою люблю я еще более твоего лица".

Бедарида Франсуа Черчилль Политическая карьера этого выдающегося британского государственного деятеля протекала на фоне двух крупнейших событий XX века - Первой и Второй мировых войн, которые и предопределили его судьбу, всю его жизнь. Три четверти столетия длилась политическая деятельность Черчилля, познавшего и блистательные взлеты, и катастрофические падения. Но его звездный час приходится на труднейший период человеческой истории - Вторую мировую войну, когда, получив пост премьер-министра, он призвал свою нацию сплотиться на борьбу с гитлеровской Германией и стал инициатором союзнической коалиции - Великобритания - СССР - США, завершившуюся великой Победой.
Автор книги Франсуа Бедарида - французский историк, специалист по английской истории, основатель Института современной истории. На обширной документальной основе он описывает биографию Черчилля, привлекая читателя ясным, доступным языком и несомненным стремлением к объективности изложения.

Гастев Алексей Алексеевич Леонардо да Винчи Рассказывая о великом итальянском ученом, изобретателе, живописце, автор сосредоточивает внимание на тех этапах жизненного пути великого мастера, которые дают возможность с наибольшей ясностью показать своеобразие его личности и ту историческую обстановку, в которой он жил и творил. Значительная часть книги посвящена непосредственно научным трудам Леонардо, его великим изобретениям, удивительной живописи, скульптуре и графике.
Режин Перну Ричард Львиное сердце Жизнь знаменитого английского короля Ричарда I Львиное Сердце, героя Третьего крестового похода в Святую землю (1189-1192), подобна захватывающему рыцарскому роману, полному невероятных подвигов и удивительных приключений. О победах и поражениях, об изумительной отваге и беспримерном благородстве, впрочем, как и о других, менее привлекательных качествах короля-рыцаря, прозванного современниками "Ос et Non" ("Да-и-Нет"), рассказывает в своей книге выдающаяся французская исследовательница и писательница Режин Перну.
Поньон Эдмон Повседневная жизнь Европы в 1000 году Согласно некоторым источникам, христиане в 1000 году ожидали конца света, тем более что в преддверии этой сакральной даты на Европу нагрянули апокалиптические беды - войны и голодомор, всевозможные природные катаклизмы. Но ужас перед Страшным судом, изображения которого покрыли все тимпаны соборов, вскоре вылился в бурное развитие религиозной архитектуры и расцвет монашества, и 1000 год стал точкой отсчета новой эпохи, известной нам как эпоха высокого Средневековья. Крупнейший французский историк-медиевист Эдмон Поньон воссоздает в своей книге повседневную жизнь Европы - во всем ее многообразии - в один из действительно переломных моментов мировой истории.
Горбунов Юрий Сергеевич Москва. Самотека Книга написана на основе обширного материала, собранного автором, и рассказывает об одном из самобытнейших районов Старой Москвы. Самотека - это не только местность к северу от Кремля, вокруг современных Цветного бульвара, Трубной, Садовой-Самотечной улиц, Олимпийского проспекта. Самотека - это целый мир со своими обычаями и традициями, мифами и легендами; мир, увы, уже почти ушедший от нас. Автор, родившийся и выросший на Самотеке, делится своими впечатлениями и наблюдениями, рассказывает об истории и архитектуре этого района Москвы, об образовании и заселении улиц и переулков, а также о реках, протекавших здесь. Читатель сможет найти информацию практически о каждом расположенном здесь доме.
Для широкого круга читателей, москвичей и гостей столицы, студентов, школьников и преподавателей, для всех тех, кто интересуется историей Москвы и Самотеки.
Скраливецкий Евгений Борисович Кодзука. Маленький спутник японского меча Публикация в 2006 году книги "Цуба - легенды на металле", посвященной изучению основного элемента оправы японского меча, побудила автора продолжить дальнейшее изучение других элементов художественной оправы.
В этой книге читателю предоставляется уникальная возможность (впервые в отечественной литературе) познакомиться с кодзука и когаи - двумя вспомогательными инструментами, входящими в комплекс оправы японского холодного оружия.
Вспомогательные инструменты (ножички, шильца, а также столовые приборы вилка и нож) сопутствуют холодному (чаще охотничьему) оружию многих народов мира. Как правило, сами по себе эти предметы не являются объектом отдельного изучения и коллекционирования. Лишь Япония является исключением из этого правила.
Цуба, кодзука и когаи "отделились" от клинка и давно живут самостоятельной жизнью в искусстве. Их уже нельзя назвать сугубо прикладными элементами меча, так как они изготавливаются как независимое и самодостаточное произведение ювелирного искусства.
Оправа японского холодного оружия - не просто красивое оформление клинка и ножен, а синтез ювелирного искусства, изысканного дизайна с историей и культурой удивительной страны.
В первой части книги содержатся сведения об истории возникновения, материалах и технологиях, применявшихся в изготовлении кодзука и когаи.
Во второй части представлен каталог кодзука и когаи из частных собраний Санкт-Петербурга.
В комментариях к предметам рассказывается о мифах и легендах Древней Японии, нашедших свое отражение на поверхности кодзука и когаи. Широко представлен весь спектр сюжетов, изображающих древних героев, обитателей мифического и реального мира, фауну и флору Страны восходящего солнца, ее обычаи, праздники и бытовые предметы.
Доступное изложение и богатый иллюстративный материал делают книгу одинаково интересной как для специалистов, так и для широкого круга читателей, неравнодушных к тысячелетней истории японского меча - духовного символа самураев.
Японские стихи даны в переводе В. Марковой.

Янушко Елена Альбиновна Помогите малышу заговорить! Развитие речи для детей 1,5-3 лет Книга посвящена актуальной теме - речевому развитию ребёнка 1,5-3 лет.
Чтобы заговорить, ребёнку необходима помощь взрослого.

Представленный материал поможет создать речевую среду развития, накопить пассивный словарь. Развитие активной речи ребёнка (именно то, чего с таким нетерпением ожидают близкие!) достигается путем развития у ребёнка речевого подражания, использования ритма и т.д.
Книга является практическим пособием. Материал изложен кратко, в популярной и удобной форме, включает в себя описания занятий в виде занимательных игр.

Ашкенази Людвик Собачья жизнь и другие рассказы Чешский писатель и поэт Людвик Ашкенази (1921-1986) по-русски был издан единожды - в 1967 году. В мире он более всего известен как детский автор (даже премирован Государственной премией ФРГ за лучшую детскую книгу). В наше издание вошли повести и рассказы без "возрастного ценза" - они адресованы всем, достаточно взрослым, чтобы читать про любовь и войну, но ещё недостаточно старым, чтобы сказать: "Я всё это и без того знаю".

Masterpieces of Western Art Masterpieces of Western Art traces the history of painting from medieval times to the present day. But unlike conventional publications, that merely illustrate a few essentials, this work places 900 paintings taken from every era squarely in the foreground.
The ten chapters each feature an introductory essay profiling the age and the achievements of the major artists, and then present selected works accompanied by searching commentaries. The reader is guided through the techniques and motifs of the artists, and familiarised with the spirit and background concerns of the age. Artist to artist, era to era, century to century, Masterpieces of Western Art adds up to an authoritative history - it is for browsing, too, where the reader can make new discoveries or meet old friends on every page.
This imaginary museum of eight centuries of masterpieces by over 500 artists is a place to explore, to acquire a richer understanding of art - a reliable history, a handbook, as entertaining as it is instructive.

Sethi Sunil Indian Interiors Large-format hardcover edition at a new low price
The sights, smells and sounds of India draw legions of travellers every year in awe of the changing terrain and countryside, but to truly experience the range and diversity of this huge country one needs to gaze into the many spectacular residences, as rich and eclectic as the landscape that surrounds them. Indian Interiors provides a longing glimpse into these exotic abodes.
India's visual culture is ruled by bright colours, religious decoration and the unrelenting heat of the sun, and designers have responded to this challenge in many ways over the centuries. With this book as guide, you can wander into the restored splendour of ancient Maharajas' palaces, enjoy living in houseboats on the lotus-covered lakes of Kashmir, or cool off in imposing colonial buildings built for British rulers wilting in the tropical heat.
This is truly a world of contrasts, as we move from simple but beautifully hand-painted tribal huts to the L.A. influenced home of a Hollywood star, from a Buddhist house in Ladakh to the most original house designed in India by Le Corbusier. All the interiors here are lavishly photographed and documented.

With this book as guide, you can wander into the restored splendour of ancient Maharajas' palaces, enjoy living in houseboats on the lotus-covered lakes of Kashmir, or cool off in imposing colonial buildings built for British rulers wilting in the tropical heat.
This is truly a world of contrasts, as we move from simple but beautifully hand-painted tribal huts to the L.A. influenced home of a Hollywood star, from a Buddhist house in Ladakh to the most original house designed in India by Le Corbusier. All the interiors here are lavishly photographed and documented.

Edwards Jane London Interiors London is swinging again. The latest design trends, the best musicals, the most innovative plays and films are born in the capital of "Cool Britannia". What catches on in Notting Hill, Soho and Hoxton now influences taste as far away as the North Cape and Tierra del Fuego. At the same time, the city on the Thames, one of the most cosmopolitan on the planet, is home to people from every corner of the world and has assimilated many of their traditions and tastes.
With over 300 pages of rich colour photographs, "London Interiors" takes an intimate look at more than 40 private residences, among others the Indian-inspired hideaway of musician Talvin Singh and an amusing houseboat moored in Kew. From a 1930s penthouse at Highpoint Two, landmark of British Modernism, via the eccentric home of a "Royalist" living among Lady Di memorabilia to a loft crammed with "sexy kitsch", the tenth volume of the successful Interiors series is a window on the private worlds of a handful of Londoners whose homes reflect the city in all its spirited diversity.

Leistikow Klaus, Ulrich Thus The Woodbook Culled and assembled by Romeyn Beck Hough between 1888 and 1913 in what still remains a stunning and unparalleled achievement, American Woods -originally published in 14 volumes, with actual specimens mounted on card stock-is a work of breathtaking beauty that has set the standard for the study of trees and wood.
TASCHEN`s Wood Book reproduces, in painstaking facsimile, all of the specimen pages from the original volumes; for this purpose we have obtained the use of an extremely rare original set of volumes in very good condition, with minimal damage to the wood cuts. For all trees, now arranged in alphabetical order, three different cross-section cuts of wood are represented (radial, horizontal, and vertical), demonstrating the particular characteristics of the grain and the wealth of colors and textures to be found among the many different wood types. Also included in this special edition are lithographs by Charles Sprague Sargent of the leaves and nuts of most trees, as well as texts describing the trees` geographical origins and physical characteristics.
Interior designers, craftsmen, nature enthusiasts, and artists alike will enjoy this beautiful collection of wood samples which includes many trees that are now very rare or completely extinct.
"The specimens, as things of beauty, are greatly to be prized…. The work is valuable and unique." -The Boston Globe, on the original edition

Heller Steven Shop America. Midcentury Storefront Design 1938-1950 In postwar America, everything pointed to a bright, shiny future. Sheer optimism and opulence informed everything from automobile design to architecture, infusing design with larger-than-life planes and curves. Storefront design of the era is particularly indicative of this phenomenon, incarnated here in an extensive collection of hand-illustrated shop window designs from 1938 to 1950. These spectacular, often grandiose plans for grocery stores, shoe shops, beauty salons, bakeries, and more are reminders of a time when stores were sacred shrines for the congregation of American shoppers-impressive and even slightly intimidating, just like the future itself. Collected for this unique book, the designs viewed in retrospect reveal the mindset of a unique period in history. In addition to an extensive selection of drawings are historical black and white photographs of actual shops built in a similar style. Shop America offers a rare look at mid-century commercial America as it pictured itself.
About the editor:
Cultural anthropologist and graphic design historian Jim Heimann is Executive Editor for TASCHEN America, and author of numerous books on architecture, pop culture, and the history of the West Coast, Los Angeles and Hollywood. His unrivaled private collection of ephemera has featured in museum exhibitions around the world and dozens of books.
About the author:
Steven Heller, co-chair of the School of Visual Arts MFA Designer as Author Program, writes the "Visuals" column for the New York Times Book Review, and is the author of 120 books on design, illustration, and satiric art.

Parinejad Patricia Miami Interiors What city made Don Johnson a Ferrari-driving pastel-suit-wearing international icon, is playground for the America's retired upper crust, birthplace of the plastic-pink-flamingo-in-the-front-yard phenomenon, and home to America's biggest Cuban population? You don't have to be a genius to figure out that Miami is the singular town in question. Fun, happy, and sexy homes populate this dreamy seaside city where blue sky, green palm leaves, and electric vibes provide an exotic backdrop to the fabulous and outrageous interiors we've selected for you. Among the gems we've mined for this new addition to our Interiors collection are locations used in the television series "Flipper" and "Miami Vice," a house on stilts suspended over the crystal clear ocean water, a high-rise apartment with jaw-dropping views, the Art Deco fabulousness of Morris Lapidus's Eden Roc hotel, and a Cuban woman's modest home bursting with kitschy religious paraphernalia. Whether they're exploding with color and pizzazz or imploding with white minimalism, these are the creme de la creme of Miami pads.

About the photographer:

As a photographer, she works with high end design and architectural companies and clients such as Cartier and Air France and her artistic work is part of different private collections.

Lima Monica Living in Bahia Seen from the sea, Bahia's coast still resembles what the Portuguese found 500 years ago when they first arrived. The tree-lined, white sand desert beaches and warm, clear waters continue to attract more tourists every year. Bahia's regional architecture makes use of native materials, conveying a natural harmony with the local climate and nature, and is distinguished by the clear influence of the three cultures in the region (indigenous, Portuguese, and African). Bahia is one of the most interesting states in Brazil, notable for its cultural history, music, art, cuisine, and most famously, its laid-back lifestyle and architecture that have turned Bahia into a favorite destination for travellers from around the world.
We have searched high and low for Bahia's loveliest homes and spots, from typical fisherman's huts to sophisticated modern homes. Highlights include the house of Brazilian's most brilliant and prodigious singer and composer Caetano Veloso in Salvador, a treehouse by sculptor and environmentalist Frans Krajcberg an experimental house with a bamboo roof, and a house perched on a cliff built by artist Joao Calazans.

Lima Monica Living in Bahia Seen from the sea, Bahia's coast still resembles what the Portuguese found 500 years ago when they first arrived. The tree-lined, white sand desert beaches and warm, clear waters continue to attract more tourists every year. Bahia's regional architecture makes use of native materials, conveying a natural harmony with the local climate and nature, and is distinguished by the clear influence of the three cultures in the region (indigenous, Portuguese, and African). Bahia is one of the most interesting states in Brazil, notable for its cultural history, music, art, cuisine, and most famously, its laid-back lifestyle and architecture that have turned Bahia into a favorite destination for travellers from around the world.
We have searched high and low for Bahia's loveliest homes and spots, from typical fisherman's huts to sophisticated modern homes. Highlights include the house of Brazilian's most brilliant and prodigious singer and composer Caetano Veloso in Salvador, a treehouse by sculptor and environmentalist Frans Krajcberg an experimental house with a bamboo roof, and a house perched on a cliff built by artist Joao Calazans.

Lococo Anita Living in Bali In a world without walls: balinese homes in harmony with nature.
Loved by travelers for its lush, tropical scenery, and charming people, Bali is considered to be one of the most magnificent places on earth. Spirituality and nature are integral parts of everyday life for the Balinese, so one can easily see why the island's traditional architecture has a peaceful presence to it, mimicking its surroundings and sometimes blending in with them. When it comes to Balinese houses, walls are not compulsory, wood is everywhere, earth tones are dominant, and thatched roofs abound. Opening onto gorgeous green landscapes, majestic mountains, or beautiful coastlines, the homes herein ooze relaxing, contemplative vibes. Gazing at these opulent examples of simple and elegant living, one wonders why more people aren't rushing to move to Bali...

Lococo Anita Living in Bali In a world without walls: balinese homes in harmony with nature.
Loved by travelers for its lush, tropical scenery, and charming people, Bali is considered to be one of the most magnificent places on earth. Spirituality and nature are integral parts of everyday life for the Balinese, so one can easily see why the island's traditional architecture has a peaceful presence to it, mimicking its surroundings and sometimes blending in with them. When it comes to Balinese houses, walls are not compulsory, wood is everywhere, earth tones are dominant, and thatched roofs abound. Opening onto gorgeous green landscapes, majestic mountains, or beautiful coastlines, the homes herein ooze relaxing, contemplative vibes. Gazing at these opulent examples of simple and elegant living, one wonders why more people aren't rushing to move to Bali...
