Origin by Dan Brown — Origin by Dan Brown

₹150

Robert Langdon, Harvard professor of symbology and religious iconology, arrives at the ultramodern Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend a major announcement—the unveiling of a discovery that “will change the face of science forever.” The evening’s host is Edmond Kirsch, a forty-year-old billionaire and futurist whose dazzling high-tech inventions and audacious predictions have made him a renowned global figure. Kirsch, who was one of Langdon’s first students at Harvard two decades earlier, is about to reveal an astonishing breakthrough . . . one that will answer two of the fundamental questions of human existence. As the event begins, Langdon and several hundred guests find themselves captivated by an utterly original presentation, which Langdon realizes will be far more controversial than he ever imagined. But the meticulously orchestrated evening suddenly erupts into chaos, and Kirsch’s precious discovery teeters on the brink of being lost forever. Reeling and facing an imminent threat, Langdon is forced into a desperate bid to escape Bilbao. With him is Ambra Vidal, the elegant museum director who worked with Kirsch to stage the provocative event. Together they flee to Barcelona on a perilous quest to locate a cryptic password that will unlock Kirsch’s secret. Navigating the dark corridors of hidden history and extreme religion, Langdon and Vidal must evade a tormented enemy whose all-knowing power seems to emanate from Spain’s Royal Palace itself . . . and who will stop at nothing to silence Edmond Kirsch. On a trail marked by modern art and enigmatic symbols, Langdon and Vidal uncover clues that ultimately bring them face-to-face with Kirsch’s shocking discovery . . . and the breathtaking truth that has long eluded us. Origin is Dan Brown’s most brilliant and entertaining novel to date.

Think like a Monk by Jay Shetty — Think like a Monk by Jay Shetty

₹180

Dopo aver conseguito la laurea in Economia alla Cass Business School di Londra, Jay Shetty si trova di fronte a un bivio: può intraprendere una sicura carriera nel mondo degli affari oppure seguire un sentiero meno battuto e investigare la profondità di una chiamata interiore. Decidendo per la seconda opzione, pochi mesi dopo è in India in un noto ashram dove decide di diventare un monaco. Lì impara che dare ascolto a quella parte più profonda di noi stessi che spesso ignoriamo è il primo passo per riuscir ad accettare chi intimamente siamo, e che solo così facendo possiamo rendere significative le nostre vite e toccare la felicità. Jay Shetty comprende anche che essere un monaco è fondamentalmente uno stato d'animo e così dopo tre anni dedicati alla ricerca interiore, in pieno accordo con il suo maestro, decide di lasciare il monastero per raccontare al mondo tutta la bellezza di quell'antica sapienza.E in Pensa come un monaco condivide con il lettore le sue intuizioni maturate a partire da quell'esperienza, sottolineando che non è necessario trasferirsi a vivere in un monastero perché la saggezza insegnata dai monaci è sempre accessibile, e una volta che la si sappia accendere è capace di offrire una risposta a molte delle domande che quotidianamente affollano la mente. La magnetica capacità comunicativa di Jay Shetty è formidabile nel rendere attualissima la saggezza e nel farci comprendere che è possibile raggiungere l'agognata armonia con il nostro sé più intimo e dimorare in quel fugace equilibro interiore che sembra altrimenti sempre sfuggirci. Ci sono tre fasi di apprendimento della mentalità del monaco.La prima è il lasciar andare, liberandoci dalle influenze esterne, dagli ostacoli interni e dalle paure che ci bloccano. Potete vederla come una pulizia che farà spazio per la crescita. La seconda fase è la crescita. Ci aiuterà a ripensare la nostra vita in modo da poter prendere le decisioni con intenzione, determinazione e sicurezza. La terza è il dare, volgendoci al mondo al di fuori di noi, espandendo

The Art of Statistics: Learning from Data — The Art of Statistics: Learning from Data

₹200

Statistics has played a leading role in our scientific understanding of the world for centuries, yet we are all familiar with the way statistical claims can be sensationalized, particularly in the media. In the age of big data, as data science becomes established as a discipline, a basic grasp of statistical literacy is more important than ever. In How to Tell the Truth with Statistics, David Spiegelhalter guides the reader through the essential principles we need in order to derive knowledge from data. Drawing on real world problems to introduce conceptual issues, he shows us how statistics can help us determine the luckiest passenger on the Titanic, whether serial killer Harold Shipman could have been caught earlier, and if a screening for ovarian cancer is beneficial. How many trees are there on the planet? Do busier hospitals have higher survival rates? Why do old men have big ears? Spiegelhalter reveals the answers to these and many other questions - questions that can only be addressed using statistical science.

The Forgotten Few; The Indian Air Force in WW2 — The Forgotten Few; The Indian Air Force in WW2

₹500

The Forgotten Few is the first contemporary attempt to produce a historical narrative of the nation's contribution, specifically to the Air Force component, of World War II, which was an important part of our journey to Independence and national identity. Close to three million Indians served in uniform during the War. And yet, the Indian chapter of this globe-straddling story, reverberations of which still echo today, are barely known - a symptom of which was the recent controversy over the absence of Indians in the Christopher Nolan film Dunkirk. This book brings to light some of the lost stories of Indian aviators who built the very foundations of human and physical infrastructure for what is now the world's fourth largest air force. It benefits from several first-person interviews with some of the last Indian survivors of World War II, enabling a level of fidelity that is quite rare among Indian histories.
