Blisko 100 wykresów, tabel i rycin prezentujących stan dzisiejszej polskiej biedy, demografii, emigracji, służby zdrowia, wykorzystania funduszy europejskich, infrastruktury, innowacyjności i wielu innych aspektów na rok 2015 (i dane wstecz), często w porównaniu do krajów UE, do średniej europejskiej i do wyników Grecji. Druzgocący materiał w całości oparty o źródła, z których korzystają mainstreamowe media. Materiały opatrzone oceną prezentowanych danych, solidnym rozdziałem opisującym metodologię badań, bibliografią - słowem - wszystkim, co może się przydać Człowiekowi Myślącemu do wyciągania samodzielnych wniosków. -- Tytuł naszej książki określa jej zadanie. Rzecz jasna idzie o ocenę. W dodatku o ocenę posiadającą społeczne konsekwencje. Jesteśmy socjologami, przeto staramy się, aby ocena ta oparta była na faktach. W nauce wierzy się, że najbardziej wiarygodne są informacje wyrażone w języku liczb. Liczby bowiem ze swej natury są sprawdzalne, porównywalne i oddzielone od języka emocji. Dlatego przedstawiamy dane, tabele i wykresy. Niech liczby rozsądzą, czy żyjemy na zielonej wyspie, czy w państwie teoretycznym zaniedbującym swoich obywateli.

The Mixer

Edgar Wallace

This is an excellent collection of short stories that include The Silk Stockings, Cinema Teaching by Post, A Gambling Raid, and many more. The Mixer is a particularly cool and resourceful scoundrel who works on the philanthropic principle of robbing only the thief and outswindling the swindler. He shows unfailing ingenuity in relieving of their ill-gotten gains the successful promoters of burglaries, sweepstakes, and financial scoops. Each chapter describes, in Mr. Wallaces best manner, some fresh exploit more daring and original than the last, and so likeable does this engaging villain become that we are positively relieved when, realizing that he has gone far enough, he finally retires from business and escapes abroad.
