 Название: The Poisoned City: Flint's Water and the American Urban Tragedy
Автор: Anna Clark
Издательство: Metropolitan Books
Год: 2018
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 5 Мб
Язык: английский / English
When the people of Flint, Michigan, turned on their faucets in April 2014, the water pouring out was poisoned with lead and other toxins. Through a series of disastrous decisions, the state government had switched the city’s water supply to a source that corroded Flint’s aging lead pipes. Complaints about the foul-smelling water were dismissed: the residents of Flint, mostly poor and African American, were not seen as credible, even in matters of their own lives. | |

 Название: The Death of Truth: Notes on Falsehood in the Age of Trump
Автор: Michiko Kakutani
Издательство: Tim Duggan Books
Год: 2018
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 2 Мб
Язык: английский / English
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
NEW YORK TIMES Editors' Choice
From the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic comes an impassioned critique of America’s retreat from reason.
We live in a time when the very idea of objective truth is mocked and discounted by the occupants of the White House. Discredited conspiracy theories and ideologies have resurfaced, proven science is once more up for debate, and Russian propaganda floods our screens. The wisdom of the crowd has usurped research and expertise, and we are each left clinging to the beliefs that best confirm our biases. | |

 Название: The Billionaire Raj: A Journey Through India's New Gilded Age
Автор: James Crabtree
Издательство: Tim Duggan Books
Год: 2018
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 3 Мб
Язык: английский / English
India is the world’s largest democracy, with more than one billion people and an economy expanding faster than China’s. But the rewards of this growth have been far from evenly shared, and the country’s top 1% now own nearly 60% of its wealth. In megacities like Mumbai, where half the population live in slums, the extraordinary riches of India’s new dynasties echo the Vanderbilts and Rockefellers of America's Gilded Age, funneling profits from huge conglomerates into lifestyles of conspicuous consumption. | |

 Название: WHAT IS MAN?: Adam, Alien or Ape?
Автор: Edgar Andrews
Издательство: Elm Hill
Год: 2018
Формат: PDF
Размер: 2 Мб
Язык: английский / English
In 1906, American humorist Mark Twain published a sixty-page essay entitled “What is man?” Consisting of an interminable dialogue between a senior citizen (who believes that man is just a machine) and a young man (who believes nothing in particular but is open to persuasion), it wasn’t one of his finest books. But at least he tried. Authors since then seem to have avoided the subject like the plague, often tackling the respective roles of men and women in society but seldom asking deeper questions about what it means to be human. When the psalmist asked, “What is man?” (Psalm 8 v.4) he was, I think, seeking an altogether more profound answer. | |

Stick Man is that guy you see around town but don't really know very well. Everywhere you go, there he is, crossing the street, waiting for the bus, issuing warnings about potential disasters at sea and on land, at the mall and at work. But when he's not offering advice, what does a day in the life of Stick Man actually look like? This catastrophe-packed book uses images derived from real signs to follow a continuous narrative as Stick Man navigates the perils of a single, hilariously bad day. | |

 Название: Storytelling for Interactive Digital Media and Video Games
Автор: Nicholas B. Zeman
Издательство: CRC Press
Год: 2017
ISBN: 1498703844; 9781498703840

Размер: 5,2 Мб
Язык: English
The evolution of story-telling is as old as the human race; from the beginning, when our ancestors first gathered around a campfire to share wondrous tales through oral traditions, to today, with information and stories being shared through waves and filling screens with words and images. Stories have always surrounded us, and united us in ways other disciplines can't. Storytelling for Interactive Digital Media and Video Games lays out the construct of the story, and how it can be manipulated by the storyteller through sound, video, lighting, graphics, and color. | |
