Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. An affectionate, intimate biography by Madame Helena Rubinstein's personal assistant that captures "Madame's" unbounded energy and spunk such as her buying carloads of African sculpture or kicking an inatteneive employee in the ankle to make him listen, keeping her competitor's at bay, and dispensing homely advice, particularly on beauty. Rubinstein's propensity for crisis, strife, and inevitably, farce make this irreverent but affectionate biography the purset diversion and just a fun read.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. In this enchanting memoir, New Yorker writer Calvin Tomkins re-creates the privileged world of Gerald and Sara Murphy, two American originals who found themselves at the center of a charmed circle of artists and expatriate writers in France in the 1920s. Their home in Antibes, Villa America, served as a gathering place for Picasso and Léger as well as Hemingway and Fitzgerald, who used the glamorous couple as models for Dick and Nicole Diver inTender Is the Night. A bestseller when it first appeared in 1971, Living Well Is the Best Revenge features sixty-nine intimate photographs collected from the Murphys' family album, along with reproductionsof several of Gerald Murphy's remarkable paintings--canvases that predate Pop Art by forty years."Living Well Is the Best Revenge isa superb little study, alive with an elegance very much the Murphys'," said Nancy Mitford. Critic Russell Lynes found the book to be "at once a sharp and charming evocation of an era and a cast, mostly delightful, surely famous, and usually talented, written with an elegant balance between tongue in cheek and sympathy."This Modern Library edition includes Calvin Tomkins's new Introduction and a rewritten last chapter.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. The great inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil is one of the best-known and controversial advocates for the role of machines in the future of humanity. In his latest, thrilling foray into the future, he envisions an event-the singularity-in which technological change becomes so rapid and so profound that our bodies and brains will merge with our machines.The Singularity Is Near portrays what life will be like after this event-a human-machine civilization where our experiences shift from real reality to virtual reality and where our intelligence becomes nonbiological and trillions of times more powerful than unaided human intelligence. In practical terms, this means that human aging and pollution will be reversed, world hunger will be solved, and our bodies and environment transformed by nanotechnology to overcome the limitations of biology, including death.We will be able to create virtually any physical product just from information, resulting in radical wealth creation. In addition to outlining these fantastic changes, Kurzweil also considers their social and philosophical ramifications. With its radical but optimistic view of the course of human development, The Singularity Is Near is certain to be one of the most widely discussed and provocative books of 2005.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Jean Piaget is unquestionably one of the world's most renowned psychologists. This book encompasses his latest research and recasts his previous conclusions in the light of his recent work. His central idea is that knowledge proceeds neither from intuitive or logical internal processes, but that it develops from a series of cognitive structures, built one above the other, requiring continuous adjustment and leading to further constructions. -- Publisher description.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition Thus. Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin, born in 1799 in Moscow, was the founding father of Russian literature. He had a simplicity and purity of language, a directness and immediacy of vision, that were entirely and spontaneously his own. In both prose and verse, he was a pioneer: whether in <i>Boris Godunov</i>, a historical drama of Shakespearean grandeur; in prose stories like <i>The Queen of Spades</i>; or in <i>Eugene Onegin</i>, a poetic novel-in these and other great works of literature Pushkin broke new ground, with the freshness of the innovator but with all the authority of genius.<br /><br />Although Pushkin himself-like his hero Onegin-was a man of fashion and lived in the highest society, his attitude toward the imperial establishment remained satirical and rebellious. He began <i>Eugene Onegin</i> in 1823 in south Russian, during his banishment from St. Petersburg, and continued it in Moscow and various country houses; it was completed in 1831. Its account of Onegin's duel with Lensky has a particular poignancy in view of the poet's fate in 1837, when he was killed in a duel with an emigre French officer over an argument about Pushkin's wife, the beautiful Natalya Goncharovna.<br /><br />It is useful to say that <i>Eugene Onegin</i> is incomparable and untranslatable. And, since Vladimir Nabokov's work on this Russian classic-which reproduced the exact meaning but disclaimed any further ambition to bring the verse form to life in English-the proud austerity of Pushkin's poetry, its technical virtuosity, its lyrical intensity and gusto have remained behind a soundproof wall, as it were, for English-language readers.<br /><br />Sir Charles Johnston's translation brings out the special qualities of <i>Eugene Onegin</i> as a poetic novel in the fullest sense: the touching beauty and cynical wit of the poem; the psychological insight, the devious narrative skill, the thrilling, compulsive grip of the novel; the tremendous swing and panache of the whole performance. As Peter Levi wrote in <i>The Sunday Times</i> (London), "A translation of <i>Onegin</i> has appeared as near perfect as I think we shall ever get. It has something of the technical dash, the swiftness and the brilliancy and the warmth of Pushkin. Even the jokes are still funny. This new translation has taught me more about Pushkin than I had understood by other means. Its obvious virtues are speed and wit, but its truth of tone is what makes it a moving and an admirable work. Johnston's Onegin is a magnificent achievement."
