The book "A Thousand Hands of Compassion" unites all the main aspects of Korean Buddhist thought.

Annotation
Korea has a proud tradition of astronomy that has been treasured for thousands of years. Koreans in the past were thorough in observing all things that happened on the earth and in the sky and leaving records of them. Such activities are the basics of natural sciences that are necessary for the survival of humankind, and the expansion of knowledge. The book is designed to raise awareness about astronomical achievement despite a lack of interest in the value of traditional sciences, in which the many astronomy-related relics and vast observation records produced with effort over the past 2,000 years have yet to be put in proper order.

Annotation
As the American century draws to an uneasy close, Philip Roth gives us a novel of unqualified greatness that is an elegy for all our century`s promises of prosperity, civic order, and domestic bliss. Roth's protagonist is Swede Levov, a legendary athlete at his Newark high school, who grows up in the booming postwar years to marry a former Miss New Jersey, inherit his father`s glove factory, and move into a stone house in the idyllic hamlet of Old Rimrock. And then one day in 1968, Swede's beautiful American luck deserts him

Annotation
The world according to David Ives is a very add place, and his plays constitute a virtual stress test of the English language -- and of the audience's capacity for disorientation and delight. Ives's characters plunge into black holes called "Philadelphias," where the simplest desires are hilariously thwarted. Chimps named Milton, Swift, and Kafka are locked in a room and made to re-create Hamlet. And a con man peddles courses in a dubious language in which "hello" translates as "velcro" and "fraud" comes out as "freud"

In this follow-up to the bestselling Never Shower in a Thunderstorm, New York Times columnist Anahad O’Connor uncovers the truth behind a hundred more old wives’ tales and conventional-wisdom cures. O’Connor investigates nagging questions of domestic safety, such as whether you can get radiation poisoning from standing too close to a microwave. (You’ll actually be exposed to more watts from your cell phone.) He unearths astounding first-aid “MacGyverisms,” such as the attempts by Vietnam War battlefield medics and professional sports stars to seal wounds with super glue
