MADE TO STICK: Why Some Idead Survive and Others Die...
Heath, Chip & Dan
Non-Fiction-Politics / Sociology / Current Affairs
|
|
RIGHTS SOLD IN HUNGARY!
Chip and Dan Heath’s new book uncovers six principles which are found in naturally sticky ideas and also in carefully designed messages that experience astonishing success, ranging from ad campaigns to organizational change efforts, from pitches for Silicon Valley start-ups to successful Hollywood screenplays. Successful messages can be summarized in an acronym, SUCCES[S] that is tested and works: Simple, Unexpected, Concrete, Credentialed, Emotional, Stories. The Succes[s] principles multiply the force of our ideas. Drawing on research in psychology, MADE TO STICK will reveal why these six principles recur constantly in naturally sticky ideas like rumors, gossip, or urban legends that don't have the benefit of publicists or ad budgets, as well as demonstrate how each principle can be used to make our own messages stick.

WATER LIKE A STONE
Crombie, Deborah
Fiction-Crime
|
|
Although the presence of Scotland Yard detectives Gemma James and Duncan Kincaid provides the glue that ultimately holds Crombie's latest novel together, the pair seems less involved in solving crime this time than in previous adventures. That doesn't stop this multifaceted mystery from being one of the best in Crombie's long-running series.
Christmas with Duncan's family proves just as stressful as Gemma feared, though not in the way she anticipated. Moments after arriving at the elder Kincaid's farmhouse, Duncan’ sister discovers a mummified infant's body entombed in the wall of a building she is renovating.
As the police make enquiries into the infant's death, Kincaid discovers that life in the lovely town of his childhood is far from idyllic, and that the dreaming reaches of the Shropshire Union Canal hold dark and deadly secrets...
As in books by Elizabeth George and P.D. James, the intriguing personal relationships and family dynamics drive this well-crafted, impressive mystery-drama.

THE WORLD’S GREATEST 20th CENTURY BATTLEFIELDS
Snow, Peter & Dan
Non-Fiction-History
|
|
This is the story of the most intense and bitterly fought battles of the twentieth century, and their lasting impact on the world.
From Amiens in the First World War to the First Gulf War in 1990-1, each of the battles featured in this book marked a turning point in military history.
Political journalist Peter Snow and military historian Dan Snow have written a high-octane, gripping narrative, punctuated by powerful eyewitness testimony that brings to life the experience of war. They reveal that these battles were shaped not just by distant military commanders but by men fighting on the frontline, whether the apocalyptic terrain of the Western Front or the hidden guerrilla tunnels of Vietnam.
During the course of the twentieth century military warfare reached unimaginable levels of intensity, scale and cost. The World's Greatest Twentieth Century Battlefields looks back at the most violent century in history and examines the challenges facing armed forces in the future. Richly illustrated with archive photographs and over 40 detailed maps, this compelling and often shocking account recreates the landscape of warfare.
