        Beloved Delhi

        A Mughal City and her Greatest Poets

        by Saif Mahmood (Foreword by Rakhshanda Jalil; Preface by Sohail Hashmi)

        ‘A riveting resurrection of the city of poets, the city of history, Saif Mahmood’s learned and evocative book takes us to the heart of Delhi’s romance with Urdu verse and aesthetics.’—Namita Gokhale Urdu poetry rules the cultural and emotional landscape of India—especially northern India and much of the Deccan—and of Pakistan. And it was in the great, ancient city of Delhi that Urdu grew to become one of the world’s most beautiful languages. Through the 18th and 19th centuries, while the Mughal Empire was in decline, Delhi became the capital of a parallel kingdom—the kingdom of Urdu poetry—producing some of the greatest, most popular poets of all time. They wrote about the pleasure and pain of love, about the splendour of God and the villainy of preachers, about the seductions of wine, and about Delhi, their beloved home. This treasure of a book documents the life and work of the finest classical Urdu poets: Sauda, Dard, Mir, Ghalib, Momin, Zafar, Zauq and Daagh. Through their biographies and poetry—including their best-known ghazals—it also paints a compelling portrait of Mughal Delhi. This is a book for anyone who has ever been touched by Urdu or Delhi, by poetry or romance.

        Wildest Heart

        by Virginia Brown

        He’s the most dangerous gunman in the West. She’s a “lady doctor” he can’t resist. Will his secret torments keep them apart? How can she handle a wounded outlaw no respectable woman should go near? Romance and intrigue are about to collide in a steamy Texas town where sin, scandal and violence rule the night. A strange sort of current flowed between them, charged with as much intensity as a bolt of lightning. Devon felt it tighten around him, binding him to her in some inexplicable way that he couldn’t explain and didn’t want to acknowledge. His tone was involuntarily savage when he mut¬tered, “If I don’t leave soon, Maggie Malone, I may do exactly that.” “Do—?” He stood up, blood boiling in his veins as if heated. The memory of her soft skin was a temptation that he did his best to resist. “You know what I mean, dam¬mit.” “No. I don’t think I do. Devon . . . what are you—?” Without pausing to think, he reached out to pull her to him, one hand around her wrist and the other hand moving to the small of her back. Maggie seemed to melt into him, her body boneless, soft breasts pressing against his chest as he pulled her close. His mouth found hers, and he kissed her with a fierce urgency that grew hotter and higher when she made a small noise in the back of her throat. Ah God, she was so sweet and fine, so damn fine. He couldn’t help himself. He knew better than to touch her, better than to kiss her. He knew he wouldn’t want to stop at kisses, and Maggie deserved to be treated with more respect. So why wasn’t he stopping? Virginia Brown is the award-winning author of nearly fifty novels in historical romance, mystery and general fiction.

        Waking The Dead and Other Stories

        by Yvette Tan

        A young woman is irresistibly drawn to the polluted Pasig River. A couple finds a baby on their doorstep that may not be human. The author of this book receives random phone calls from her dead father. And in this new edition, a B movie-inspired tale joins the ranks, told with the author’s signature meld of Filipino folk beliefs and modern settings. These are some of the stories in the critically acclaimed Waking the Dead and Other Stories, considered a significant work in Pinoy horror literature. From supernatural terrors to human atrocities, each story in this collection makes us further question our understanding of the universe, and undermines our belief of what is real and what is not, and what true monsters are made of.

        Ich habe Licht gebracht!

        Louise Otto-Peters, eine deutsche Revolutionärin

        by Zimmer, Anja

        "I have brought light", cries five-year-old Louise Otto when she is allowed to light one of the new sulphur woods for the first time."Bringing light" - This resolution runs like a red thread through Louise's life. At a time when bourgeois girls are not even allowed to leave the house alone, Louise travels Germany all by herself. And although it is strictly forbidden to even mention grievances, Louise's political poems, articles and novels repeatedly highlight the appalling living conditions of the industrial proletariat, focusing on the rightsless female workers. And she realises that there can be no social justice without equality between men and women. She demands - almost painfully topical - equal pay and the right to work for all women. Great hope for change is finally brought by the revolution that begins in March 1848. Louise and her like-minded friends already believe they have achieved their goals when a National Assembly is set up in Frankfurt's Paulskirche. In order to create a network of solidarity for women in this atmosphere of new beginnings, Louise founds Germany's first women's newspaper. She finds a supporter in the young revolutionary August Peters, with whom she soon has more than one friendship. But the counter-revolution is not long in coming: when the Dresden May Uprising is bloodily crushed, Louise is subjected to spying and interrogation. Her world is completely darkened when she learns that August Peter is a prisoner of the Prussian army ... Anja Zimmer describes the life of the writer and co-founder of the German women's movement Louise Otto-Peters (1819-1895) in an exciting novel and shows that many of Louise's demands have lost none of their topicality.

        De sublieme eenvoud van relativiteit

        Een visuele inleiding

        by Sander Bais

        Bais wrote a cute pictorial monograph that smoothly takes you to the very heart of the theory that shook the foundations of science a century ago. Einstein’s 1905 papers on special relativity marked a turning point in our understanding of such fundamental notions a space, time, mass and energy. In an elegant sequence of easy to follow steps through a splendid series of spacetime diagrams Sander Bais gives you the thrill of discovering Einstein’s sublime but extremely counter intuitive reality yourself. The chapters cover subjects like , the postulates, simultaneity, causality, contractions and dilations, and energy and momentum. Discover in a pictorial way why moving clocks run slow, why things cannot move faster then the speed of light, or why mass and energy are equivalent… A delightful journey for the curious mind, the critical student, and the teacher who wants to inspire, but also for all those who want to recapture this beautiful body of knowledge. This book is not as much a philosophical or historical reflection on special relativity, as a manual that with a few words brings you the essential contents of this unique theory. A guided tour full of thought provoking riddles, paradoxes and brainteasers that might keep you awake, fortunately their many back-of- the-envelope resolutions are also included. This book is as close to a do-it-yourself relativity kit as you can get. The author nicely exploits the fact that one image can say a lot more than a full page of algebra, and where algebra is hard to remember some of Bais’ diagrams are hard to forget.
