Святой благоверный князь Александр Невский Рожденный в 1220 году сын великого князя Ярослава Всеволодовича Александр с юных лет отличался своим умом и благочестием и в 17 лет оддъв уже самостоятельно управлял Новгородской областью В нелегкую годину довелось ему княжить: с востока Руси угрожали монгольские орды, с запада наступали рыцарские полчища Укрепляемый молитвой и верой в Божественное покровительство Руси, он одержал многочисленные победы против врагов, зачастую превосходивших по числу и силе русские дружины Со словами: "Нас не много, а враг силен, но Бог не с сильными, а с правыми," - он вел своих людей навстречу неприятелю и неизменно возвращался с победой, за что уже при жизни почитался как искусный полководец, мудрый князь и великий молитвенник Господь благословил неустрашимость и прозорливость Александра Невского и земля Русская неоднократно была спасена его военными подвигами и искусной дипломатией от угрожавших ей бедствий По дороге домой из дипломатической поездки в Орду Александр Невский заболел в селе Городце Новгородской области и 14 ноября 1263 года скончался Перед смертью он постригся в схиму под именем Алексий Тело его перевезли из Городца во Владимир, где при погребении было явлено Богом "чудо дивно и памяти достойно" Когда положено было тело святого Александра в раку, эконом Севастиан и митрополит Кирилл намеревались вложить напутственную духовную грамоту в руку святого князя, но он, как живой, сам простер руку и взял грамоту из рук митрополита Нетленные мощи Александра Невского были открыты по видению накануне Куликовской битвы; слава о чудесах и исцелениях на его гробнице разнеслась по всей России По указу Петра I мощи святого благоверного князя были перенесены в 1724 году в Троицкий собор Александро-Невской Лавры, где они почивают и поныне Святому приносятся молитвы за Россию православную Дни памяти: 30 августа / 12 сентября, 23 ноября / 6 декабря (cт /нов стиль) Икона освящена в Свято-Троицкой Сергиевой Лавре.  2010 г ; Упаковка: коробка.

Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek bestseller Asked to explain why a few people truly excel, most people offer one of two answers The first is hard work Yet we all know plenty of hard workers who have been doing the same job for years or decades without becoming great The other possibility is that the elite possess an innate talent for excelling in оддъй their field We assume that Mozart was born with an astounding gift for music, and Warren Buffett carries a gene for brilliant investing The trouble is, scientific evidence doesn't support the notion that specific natural talents make great performers According to distinguished journalist Geoff Colvin, both the hard work and natural talent camps are wrong What really makes the difference is a highly specific kind of effort-"deliberate practice"-that few of us pursue when we're practicing golf or piano or stockpicking Based on scientific research, Talent is Overrated shares the secrets of extraordinary performance and shows how to apply these principles It features the stories of people who achieved world-class greatness through deliberate practice-including Benjamin Franklin, comedian Chris Rock, football star Jerry Rice, and top CEOs Jeffrey Immelt and Steven Ballmer.  2010 г Мягкая обложка, 240 стр ISBN 1591842948.

Vincent Descombes brings together an astonishingly large body of philosophical and anthropological thought to present a thoroughgoing critique of contemporary cognitivism and to develop a powerful new philosophy of the mind Beginning with a critical examination of American cognitivism and French structuralism, Descombes launches a more оддьа general critique of all philosophies that view the mind in strictly causal terms and suppose that the brain--and not the person--thinks Providing a broad historical perspective, Descombes draws surprising links between cognitivism and earlier anthropological projects, such as Levi-Strauss's work on the symbolic status of myths He identifies as incoherent both the belief that mental states are detached from the world and the idea that states of mind are brain states; these assumptions beg the question of the relation between mind and brain In place of cognitivism, Descombes offers an anthropologically based theory of mind that emphasizes the mind's collective nature Drawing on Wittgenstein, he maintains that mental acts are properly attributed to the person, not the brain, and that states of mind, far from being detached from the world, require a historical and cultural context for their very intelligibility Available in English for the first time, this is the most outstanding work of one of France's finest contemporary philosophers It provides a much-needed link between the continental and Anglo-American traditions, and its impact will extend beyond philosophy to anthropology, psychology, critical theory, and French studies.  2010 г Мягкая обложка, 304 стр ISBN 0691146667.

A new theory of evolution begins to emerge in the pages of The Altenberg 16: An ExposA© of the Evolution Industry Written by Suzan Mazura??a print and television journalist whose reports have appeared in the Financial Times, The Economist, Archaeology, Omni, and many other publicationsa??the book is a front row seat to the thinking of the great оддьм evolutionary science minds of our time about the need to reformulate the neo-Darwinian theory of evolution We hear from world renowned scientists such as Richard Lewontin, Lynn Margulis, Niles Eldredge, Richard Dawkins, the "evo-devo" revolutionaries, NASA astrobiologists, and others A The book grew out of a story Mazur broke online in March 2008a??titled "Altenberg! The Woodstock of Evolution?"a??about the now famous meeting at Konrad Lorenz Institute in Altenberg, Austria in July 2008, where 16 scientists discussed expanding evolutionary thinking beyond outdated hypotheses (MIT will publish the proceedings in April 2010 ) Science magazine noted that Mazur’s reporting "reverberated throughout the evolutionary biology community " A Mazur says she was punished for getting out in front of the story and banned from the symposium but realized the story was bigger than Altenberg (which covered events beginning 500 million years ago) and spoke to scientists who were not invited, including those investigating pre-biotic evolution A She came to the conclusion that evolutionary science suffers because many in the scientific establishment refuse to acknowledge that the old science has served its purpose and there is disagreement about what the new evolution paradigm is She thinks the dam is now breaking because the public (who funds science) has become a party to the discourse via the Internet and seeks answers to fundamental questions about evolution that scientists so far can’t definitively answer.  2010 г Мягкая обложка, 376 стр ISBN 1556439245.
