Meet Anna K! Every happy teenage girl is the same, while every unhappy teenage girl is miserable in her own special way... At seventeen, Anna K is at the top of Manhattan and Greenwich society (even if she prefers the company of her horses and dogs); she has the perfect (if perfectly boring) boyfriend, Alexander W.; and she has always made her Korean-American father proud (even if he can be a little controlling). Meanwhile, Anna's brother, Steven, and his girlfriend, Lolly, are trying to weather an sexting scandal; Lolly’s little sister, Kimmie, is struggling to recalibrate to normal life after an injury derails her ice dancing career; and Steven’s best friend, Dustin, is madly (and one-sidedly) in love with Kimmie. As her friends struggle with the pitfalls of ordinary teenage life, Anna always seems to be able to sail gracefully above it all. That is...until the night she meets Alexia “Count” Vronsky at Grand Central. A notorious playboy who has bounced around boarding schools and who lives for his own pleasure, Alexia is everything Anna is not. But he has never been in love until he meets Anna, and maybe she hasn’t, either. As Alexia and Anna are pulled irresistibly together, she has to decide how much of her life she is willing to let go for the chance to be with him. And when a shocking revelation threatens to shatter their relationship, she is forced to question if she has ever known herself at all. Dazzlingly opulent and emotionally riveting, Anna K: A Love Story is a brilliant reimagining of Leo Tolstoy's timeless love story, Anna Karenina—but above all, it is a novel about the dizzying, glorious, heart-stopping experience of first love and first heartbreak.

From Jenny Lee, writer on the Disney Channel show Shake It Up!, the number-one-rated kids' show in the country, this feel-good middle-grade novel is about a sickly boy whose life is turned upside down when he gets a therapy dog . . . who can talk!

So when Benji wakes up one day from a particularly bad spell, his doctors take the radical step of suggesting he get a therapy dog. But when a massive crate arrives at Benji's house, out walks a two-hundred-pound Newfoundland who can talk! And boy, is he bossy. In this hilarious and heartwarming friendship story in the tradition of bestselling authors Gordon Korman and Carl Hiaasen, Elvis brings out the dog lover in the most surprising people and shows Benji that making new friends may not be as scary as he once thought.

Enlisting the help of luminaries from the world of science, technology, and design showcases new responses to material innovation and provides key insights into how material will be utilised to shape our future environments. Unlike existing publications that singularly examine and showcase materials from an industrial and technical standpoint for commercial application, this publication explores materials from a conceptual, historical and narrative point of view. Exploring key topics such as synthetic biology, how designers and scientists are designing with living matter, utilising the laboratory as a means to cultivate and grow new materials. To technological innovations, how new technologies such as 3D printing are revolutionising the manufacturing industry. Showcasing the work by technologists and artisans, how these collaborative partnerships are evolving to redefine materiality in the 21st century. The book not only provides new insights into how designers, scientists and artisans are exploring materiality, it also presents opportunities to physically engage with materials through the following chapters: Low-Tech, High-Tech, Molecular Gastronomy and The Laboratory. In addition to this, the publication features interactive content that merges the analogue with the digital. Using image recognition software to trigger hidden content in the form of animations that visually demonstrate how to carry out each workshop, or to transport you to the alchemists conceptual film to further explain the narrative of their research. The use of materials within art, design and architecture is a dynamic and growing area of research. How we use and define a material no longer applies in the 21st century, a material is more than just a material to clothe and shelter us, our desire for intrinsic value and connectedness has driven the way for new interpretations of materiality, as opposed to merely applying materials for commercial applications.

Jenny Lee covered her first year of marriage in the painfully real and funny book I Do. I Did. Now What?! Now it's time for her to write about the real love of her life: Wendell. Her dog. *Do you talk about your dog non-stop? *Do you suspect your dog is a genius? *Do you name each of your dog's toys? *Does your dog get more heavy petting than your spouse? *Do all holidays revolve around your dog? If any of these scenarios sound familiar, you probably have a healthy admiration for your dog. But if all of the scenarios in What Wendell Wants sound familiar, well, it's obvious that your appreciation of your pooch has truly crossed the line into true love--dysfunctional, sure, but who cares?! Jenny Lee knows this obsession inside and out, and her advice is not to fight it: there's simply no cure. Instead, she offers hysterical accounts of her own experiences--from fretting over her dog's haircut to getting his portrait painted a la Picasso to trying desperately to impress the Bed & Biscuit dog kennel--to give all kindred dog-loving spirits out there some consolation that they're not alone.

The Universal Life Energy

Mentre i suoi amici lottano con le insidie di una normale vita da adolescente, Anna K. sembra sempre essere in grado di avanzare con grazia al di sopra di tutto. Cioè... fino alla notte in cui incontra Alexia Vronsky, detto il Conte, alla Grand Central Station di New York. Alexia – un famigerato playboy scansafatiche che ama vivere solo per il proprio piacere – è tutto ciò che Anna non è. Ma hanno una cosa in comune: non sono mai stati innamorati, o almeno fino a quando non s’incontrano per la prima volta. Mentre sono irresistibilmente attratti l’uno dall’altra, Anna deve decidere quanto della sua vita è disposta a sacrificare per avere la possibilità di frequentarlo. Essere infatti la beniamina dell’alta società di Manhattan significa una vita di lusso e privilegi, ma anche di regole ferree e imprescindibili: più si è in alto più la caduta è rovinosa. Anna è costretta a chiedersi se ha mai conosciuto veramente sé stessa mentre era impegnata a soddisfare le aspettative di chi la circonda, e quanto sia caro il prezzo da pagare per vivere il suo grande amore. Sorprendentemente sfarzoso e avvincente, Anna K. Una love story è una brillante rivisitazione dell’intramontabile storia d’amore di Lev Tolstoj, Anna Karenina, ma soprattutto è un romanzo sull’esperienza vertiginosa, gloriosa e mozzafiato del primo amore e del primo batticuore.

Esta obra é um ensaio sobre a necessidade da diferença entre os sexos. Muitos dos comportamentos repetidos à exaustão por homens e mulheres são fundamentados em seus estímulos neurobiológicos. Segundo os autores, compreendê-los é o caminho para uma vida melhor. Assim, o livro foi montado no formato `ele diz/ela reage`, procurando ensinar aos leitores a entender melhor a cabeça de homens e mulheres.
