Brain Story will examine how the brain controls every aspect of our being from movement to the emotions. It also explores "our ability to learn and adapt" though fossil records have shown that the human brain has not changed significantly for thousands of years. Scientists continue to struggle with questions such as is the mind separate from the brain or are all our experiences mere chemical reactions in the brain. close

Stretching from the Stone Age to the year 2000, Simon Schama's Complete History of Britain does not pretend to be a definitive chronicle of the turbulent events which buffeted and shaped the British Isles. What Schama does do, however, is tell the story in vivid and gripping narrative terms, free of the fustiness of traditional academe, personalising key historical events by examining the major characters at the centre of them. Not all historians would approve of the history depicted here as shaped principally by the actions of great men and women rather than by more abstract developments, but Schama's way of telling it is a good deal more enthralling as a result.
Schama successfully gives lie to the idea that the history of Britain has been moderate and temperate, passing down the generations as stately as a galleon, taking on board sensible ideas but steering clear of sillier, revolutionary ones. Nonsense. Schama retells British history the way it was--as bloody, convulsive, precarious, hot-blooded and several times within an inch of haring off onto an entirely different course. Schama seems almost to delight in the goriness of history. Themes returned to repeatedly include the wars between the Scots and the Irish and the Catholic/Protestant conflicts--only the Irish question remains unresolved by the new millennium. As Britain becomes a constitutional monarchy, Schama talks less of Kings and Queens but of poets and idea-makers like Orwell. Still, with his pungent, direct manner and against an evocative visual and aural backdrop, Schama makes history seem as though it happened yesterday, the bloodstains not yet dry. close

At the dawn of the twentieth century, when a wave of immigrants swept America, the romantic shooters of the Wild West gave way to gangsters of big cities. In this world, everyone in his own way embodied his “American dream”, sometimes paving his way with blood, fear and violence. Before you is the story of the American underworld, covering the period from the beginning of the XX century to the 1930s; a fascinating story about how desperate gangsters became almighty mafiosi, invisibly ruling the country. close

Black Books centres around the foul tempered and wildly eccentric bookshop owner Bernard Black. Bernard’s devotion to the twin pleasures of drunkenness and wilful antagonism deepens and enriches both his life and that of Manny, his assistant. Bearded, sweet and good, Manny is everything that Bernard isn’t and is punished by Bernard relentlessly just for the crime of existing. They depend on each other for meaning as Fran, their oldest friend, depends on them for distraction.
Black Books is a haven of books, wine and conversation, the only threat to the group’s peace and prosperity is their own limitless stupidity. close

None of the Del Avila family was prepared for the turmoil that led to the death of Rodrigo Cordova, the direct heir to the wealthy and powerful Diego Del Avila. No one but Rodrigo's killer. Rodrigo was killed the day Don Diego was about to announce who would head the Villa Del Avila Hotel. Rodrigo's death draws the family into a tumultuous power struggle. During this turmoil, Angelica Rodriguez, a modest provincial nineteen-year-old girl, appears on the stage, who falls in love with Marcelo Cordoba Del Avila, the son of the murdered Rodrigo.
Not knowing that Angelica is expecting a child from him, he goes to the capital and marry a beautiful ambitious woman Malena Vallejo. But their marriage is based on a lust for wealth and power, not true love. Marcelo does not return for a long time, and Angelica goes in search of him. The news that Marcelo has married someone else ruins her dreams. Suddenly, she finds support from Marcelo’s cousin, Erasmo Del Avila, the heir to the hotel. To help Angelica regain Marcelo, Erasmo introduces her to secular society and teaches all the wisdom of secular etiquette. Erasmo marries Angelica, hoping to help her.
However, misfortune again awaits Angelica: her new husband dies. Everyone believes that she is expecting a child with Erasmo, who is the legal heir to the hotel. Angelica faces the brutality and ruthlessness of the Del Ávila family: her rival, Malena, does everything to destroy her. Fortunately, Angelica has the strength to prove that good is stronger than evil and love is stronger than hate. close
