Язык: английский / English

What does drug withdrawal have in common with a broken heart? Why is the enemy of memory not time but other memories? How can a blind person learn to see with her tongue, or a deaf person learn to hear with his skin? Might we someday control a robot with our thoughts, just as we do our fingers and toes? Why do we dream at night, and what does that have to do with the rotation of the earth? The answers to these questions are right behind our eyes. The greatest technology we have ever discovered on our planet is the three-pound organ carried in the vault of the skull. The magic of the brain is not found in the parts it’s made of but in the way those parts unceasingly reweave themselves in an electric, living fabric. In Livewired, you will surf the leading edge of neuroscience atop the anecdotes and metaphors that have made David Eagleman one of the best scientific translators of our generation. Covering decades of research to the present day, Livewired also presents new discoveries from Eagleman’s own laboratory, from synesthesia to dreaming to wearable neurotech devices that revolutionize how we think about the senses.

Предлагаемая Вашему вниманию книга – сборник статей крупнейшего французского историка Люсьена Февра (1878–1956), объединённых в труде «Бои за историю». Свою главную задачу Февр усматривал в обосновании новых принципов исторического познания. Пафос его творчества – возвращение историческому знанию утраченного им гуманистического содержания, насыщение истории проблематикой, связанной с жизнью современного общества и диктуемой коренными, глубинными его запросами.

Среди главных причин неудач первых месяцев войны составителями сборника выделено две: Первая — это переоценка советским руководством возможностей политических средств предотвращения войны и попытки их осуществления в отрыве от военно-стратегических соображений. Вторая причина — недооценка противника и несвоевременное приведение войск в боевую готовность.
