  How to pass the exam? The ideal passing exam is when the examiner knows everything, is confident in himself, does not fear the teacher, knows how to express his thoughts beautifully and clearly. When the sheet with the task does not drive into a stupor, and a shiver in hands does not prevent to put a tick opposite to the correct answer in the test. In general - a dream. It happens very rarely. Most often the exam turns into a fight, and it is necessary to fight with different opponents ...

  Malcolm Gladwell, the #1 bestselling author of The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers, and What the Dog Saw, offers his most provocative---and dazzling---book yet.Three thousand years ago on a battlefield in ancient Palestine, a shepherd boy felled a mighty warrior with nothing more than a stone and a sling, and ever since then the names of David and Goliath have stood for battles between underdogs and giants. David's victory was improbable and miraculous. He shouldn't have won. Or should he have? In David and Goliath, Malcolm Gladwell challenges how we think about obstacles and disadvantages, offering a new interpretation of what it means to be discriminated against, or cope with a disability, or lose a parent, or attend a mediocre school, or suffer from any number of other apparent setbacks.Gladwell begins with the real story of what happened between the giant and the shepherd boy those many years ago. From there, David and Goliath examines Northern Ireland's Troubles, the minds of cancer researchers and civil rights leaders, murder and the high costs of revenge, and the dynamics of successful and unsuccessful classrooms---all to demonstrate how much of what is beautiful and important in the world arises from what looks like suffering and adversity. In the tradition of Gladwell's previous bestsellers---The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers and What the Dog Saw---David and Goliath draws upon history, psychology, and powerful storytelling to reshape the way we think of the world around us.

  «Греческий и латынь, разумеется, никакие не мертвые. Их жизнь бурлила во все века. Представьте себе реку, у которой несколько устий, а еще вдобавок не- сколько притоков, и все они впадают в огромное литературно-культурное море. Тексты и мифы, которыми и занимается антиковедение, сейчас актуальны, как и всегда. Этот libellus, или эта книжечка, даст вам все, что нужно для общего представления о предмете. Мы будем обсуждать и крупные темы, и мелочи. Мы обнаружим мифологические основания для литературы и философии, посмотрим, как возникли великие эпические поэмы, с которых началась западная цивилизация, и какой они несут смысл. Мы исследуем, как работает ис- тория, поговорим о любовной поэзии и трагедиях... На страницах этой книги мы с Уной бродим по грязным и многолюдным улицам на севере Лондона и почти сельским холмам Хэмпстед-хит, но в воображении мы проходим мимо афин- ского Парфенона во всей его расцвеченной красе, подглядываем за римскими сенаторами, пока Цицерон уличает негодяя Катилину, или просто праздно играем во дворе в кости. Чтобы составить нам компанию в этом путешествии, вам не понадобятся даже ботинки… А теперь приготовились — и берите от этой книги всё!» (Филип Уомэк)

  The tax inspection for a respectable citizen is perhaps the only unpleasant state structure, a meeting with which is inevitable. Agree, even the second name of it - the fiscal body, it sounds repulsive. But, anyway, you need to be ready for this meeting. It is for this kind of special training that our audiobook is intended. If you are an individual, you will learn from it what taxes you will have to face, and how to make sure that you pay them a minimum. In the event of a conflict with unscrupulous employees of this institution with our help, you will certainly win the dispute. If, besides, you are also a legal entity, the knowledge you offer will be doubly demanded. In the book you will find for yourself and the strategy of communicating with this most fiscal body, if you are called into it or come to you with a check. In addition, you will receive a pledge of a successful business - examples of the main mistakes of others, on which, as is known, smart people learn. Finally, if you still made some mistake, you will find out what kind of punishment you can apply under the law. Knowing in advance what can follow certain actions (and for which ones), you simply will not do them.
