Space 1999, Vol. 1 (Unabridged)

In time for the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing comes this edition of journalist Andrew Smith’s book, now updated with a new Afterword, that tells the fascinating story of twelve astronauts who ventured to space, and his interviews with nine of the surviving men. “Smith’s book succeeds…because he bungee-cords together so many intriguing digressions.”—New York Times The Apollo lunar missions of the 1960s and 1970s have been called the last optimistic acts of the twentieth century. Twelve astronauts made this greatest of all journeys and were indelibly marked by it, for better or for worse. Journalist Andrew Smith tracks down the nine surviving members of this elite group to find their answers to the question ""Where do you go after you've been to the Moon?"" A thrilling blend of history, reportage, and memoir, Moondust rekindles the hopeful excitement of an incandescent hour in America's past when anything seemed possible as it captures the bittersweet heroism of those who risked everything to hurl themselves out of the known world—and who were never again quite able to accept its familiar bounds.

Doctor Who - Destiny of the Doctor, Series 1, 3: Vengeance of the Stones (Unabridged)

30 kilometer i sekundet er en sjov og hjertevarm YA-roman om at lære at leve livet. Finn Easton måler livet i kilometer i stedet for minutter. Alle de mange kilometer, han har levet, har været defineret af hans far, og han har også planlagt Finns fremtid. Finn Easton har nemlig epilepsi efter at være blevet ramt af en flyvende, død hest, og hans far slipper ham nødig af syne. Det gør tilværelsen lidt ensformig, men der er to gode ting i hans liv: hans bedste ven, den-sandsynligvis-splittergale-men-utroligt-fantastiske-og-fantasifulde Cade Hernandez og Julia, hans livs første kærlighed. Da Julia flytter, bliver Finns hjerte knust, og Cade og han stikker af fra epilepsimedicin og forældreovervågning på en biltur til Oklahoma. På turen oplever de en ulykke, og de to unge bliver helte på en måde, der ændrer deres livssyn fuldstændig. »Jeg elsker Andrew Smith, og jeg elsker denne bog […] Den har alle de kendetegn, der er ved en Andrew Smith-roman: Fed skrivestil og fede personer. En virkelig sød, sjov og bevægende historie.« Brigid på Goodreads Pressen skriver: »Sjov og sprudlende ungdomsroman i bedste John Green-stil om venner og kærlighed og også om at være anderledes.« - Monica Severin, Litteratursiden »Grin og græd med Finn i hjertevarm historie […] Varm og sørgmunter historie for unge, turneret i den underspillede anti-helte-stil, som er populær og når mange læsere med sin humor. Vedkommende fortælles om drengevenskaber, frigørelse fra en lidt for omklamrende forælder, uroen og presset i forbindelse med den første kærlighed og forventninger om sex. Epilepsi-vinklen er rørende og realistisk integreret i den velskrevne fortælling.« - Helle Winther Olsen, Lektør

I en lille by i Iowa kommer Austin og hans bedste ven, Robby, til at slippe en ustoppelig hær af liderlige, sultne, to meter høje græshopper løs … Græshoppejunglen er en absurd, intens og modig roman om at blive voksen.

The Size of the Truth

Southern Africa's first people communities are the groups of hunter-gatherers and herders, representing the oldest human lineages in Africa, who migrated from as far as East Africa to settle in what is now Namibia, Botswana and South Africa. These groups, known today as the Khoisan, are represented by the Bushmen (or San) and the Khoe. In First People, archaeologist Andrew Smith examines what we know about southern Africa's earliest inhabitants, drawing on evidence from excavations, rock art, the observations of colonial-era travellers, linguistics, the study of the human genome and the latest academic research. Richly illustrated, First People is an invaluable and accessible work that reaches from the Middle and Later Stone Age to recent times, and explores how the Khoisan were pushed to the margins of history and society. Smith, who is an expert on the history and prehistory of the Khoisan, paints a knowledgeable and fascinating portrait of their land occupation, migration, survival strategies and cultural practices.

First People

Throughout history, technological revolutions have been driven by the invention of machines. But today, the power of the technology transforming our world lies in an intangible and impenetrable cosmos of software: algorithmic code. In a world increasingly governed by technologies that so few can comprehend, who-or what-controls the future? Devil in the Stack follows Andrew Smith on his immersive trip into the world of coding, passing through the stories of logic, machine-learning and early computing, from Ada Lovelace to Alan Turing, and up to the present moment, behind the scenes into the lives - and minds - of the pioneers of the 21st century: those who write code. Smith embarks on a quest to understand this sect in what he believes to be the only way possible: by learning to code himself. Expansive and effervescent, Devil in the Stack delivers a portrait of code as both a vivid culture and an impending threat. By turns revelatory, unsettling and joyously funny, this is an essential book for our times, of vital interest to anyone hoping to participate in the future-defining technological debates to come.
