A long-expected translation of one of the most prominent stydies of Chekhov, written with lucidity and depth akin to Chekhov's own style.

Man's destiny is communion with the Life of the Trinity
A collection of essays, this gem is sure to deepen and change your understanding of salvation, creation, God, the Church and many other topics. I found it hard to sleep after reading this book at night, as it seemed to charge my mind with a surge of creativity and a desire to put my face on the floor to pray. These essays are far from dry. Engaging from the start, they cover the following topics: 1.Apophasis and Trinitarian Theology 2.Darkness and Light in the Knowledge of God 3.The Theology of Light in the Thought of St.Gregory Palamas 4.The Procession of the Holy Spirit in Orthodox Trinitarian Theology 5.Redemption and Deification 6.The Theological Notion of the Human Person 7.The Theology of the Image 8.Tradition and Traditions 9.Concerning the Third Mark of the Church: Catholicity 10.Catholic Consciousness: Anthropological Implications of the Dogma of the Church 11.Panagia 12Dominion and Kingship: An Eschatological Study Bibliography

It is hard to imagine a better presentation of these topics. My only complaint is his use of greek and latin without translating. While his use is usually inferrable from the context, if you are unfamiliar with theological jargon, you'll want a greek-latin-english dictionary at hand (maybe not, though). PLEASE don't let that scare you. It is a minimal amont of times that you'll not get what he means. Besides, isn't time to learn a little greek? Although Lossky's works are always worthwhile, his "Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church" takes the cake. He's done his homework, now do yours!

this book was a revolution
I have first seen the movie, which was almost a revolution in the Soviet Union. Finally somebody was talking about the prostitution!!!!!!!! And before, how one prominent woman said, "there was no sex in the Soviet Union". It is a great, but a sad story about a girl, who was trying to survive and to have a bit more from life than an average person in the USSR.


Introduction to Combinatorial Torsions

Excellent book
This short book is a good place to start learning about the theory of Reidemeister torsions. Masterfully written by one of the leading experts on the subject, it follows the standard of exposition set by Milnor in his famous survey on this subject 40 years ago. The book is very easy to read, the necessary background is covered economically, but in details. You can find here many results that received the first treatment in book form and some classical results with illuminating explainations. The last chapter briefly indicates recent developments in connection with Seiberg-Witten invariants of 3-manifolds.

The book is mainly an introduction and concerns mostly with combinatorial manifolds and knot theory. As the author stated, many other aspects of the theory (e.g. the analytical theory) are left out.

Brilliant, understandable introduction to quantum mechanics.
When I was a graduate student in science many years ago, some of my fellow students referred to Rojansky's Introductory Quantum Mechanics as "Quantum Mechanics for Idiots" because it was understandable. Yes, Rojansky's brilliantly-written introduction to quantum mechanics is understandable, but it is also very detailed and highly rigorous. No other textbook on this subject presents the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics so clearly and definitively. If you have an interest in understanding the basic principles of the strange field of science known as quantum mechanics, try to acquire a copy of this excellent book. This is one of the half dozen or so greatest scientific texts that I have encountered in my more than fifty years as a student and practicing research scientist.

Little vampire learns a lesson or two
Vladimir wants what he wants when he wants it. Even if it means being alone and pushing away his family. Through a few lessons he learns that all he desires will come in it's own time. This classic theme with a Halloween edge to it, makes a substantial bed time reading choice.
