The Purple Cloud, The Lord of the Sea (both 1901), and The Last Miracle (1906) is a trilogy of science fiction; and at least the first two are considered early masterpieces in the genre. The Purple Cloud is widely hailed as a masterpiece of science fiction and one of the best last man novels ever written. A deadly purple vapor passes over the world and annihilates all living creatures except one man, Adam Jeffson. Adam adventures to the North Pole; on returning he realizes the entire population of the world has been destroyed by a cloud of cyanogen; he tours with world as master of all he sees, reveling and destroying as he will.

Semi Dual was an embodied mind rather than a human in the usual sense. He was a man of outstanding mental abilities, who applied his knowledge to straighten out the excesses and confusions of mortal life on earth. Many people would call him a mystic; in fact, he was a representative of the highest universal laws that few recognize. Another impressive story about Semi Dual, which reveals the new features of the main character.

The Pursuits of Peter Pell is an episodic novel in 12 parts by Aidan de Brune, set in Perth, Australia. Peter Pell is a con man. Thats essentially it. He engages in a lot of humorous adventures and situations. Its told in sequential short story format. As the novel is rather short and quite fast-paced with a lot of scenery-changes and adventures, this nice. Aidan de Brune was a big name in Australian literature but is forgotten today. He was a prolific author who wrote in a variety of genres. In the 1920s and 1930s a number of his novels appeared in Australian newspapers as serials, and he also appears to have written serials specifically for publication in newspapers.

The Puzzle of (Un)Countability in English. A Study in Cognitive Grammar
Grzegorz Drożdż
Monografia poświęcona jest policzalności i niepoliczalności rzeczownika w języku angielskim. Książkę rozpoczyna przegląd literatury poświęconej temu zagadnieniu począwszy od pierwszych gramatyk, w których podjęto analizę tego tematu, poprzez najważniejsze osiągnięcia różnych podejść: logicznego, morfologicznego, syntaktycznego, semantycznego oraz pragmatycznego. Przegląd kończy ujęcie tego zagadnienia z punktu widzenia Gramatyki Kognitywnej, która jednocześnie stanowi bazę teoretyczną przeprowadzonej w drugiej części monografii analizy. Opierając się na autentycznym materiale językowym, autor podejmuje się weryfikacji jednego z twierdzeń Gramatyki Kognitywnej, iż prawdopodobnie każdy rzeczownik może wystąpić zarówno w formie policzalnej, jak i niepoliczalnej. Ponadto, autor wskazuje szereg prawidłowości, według których następuje zmiana omawianych własności gramatycznych rzeczownika, a które nierozerwalnie związane są z ekstensją znaczenia.
The Python Apprentice. Introduction to the Python Programming Language
Robert Smallshire, Austin Bingham
Experienced programmers want to know how to enhance their craft and we want to help them start as apprentices with Python. We know that before mastering Python you need to learn the culture and the tools to become a productive member of any Python project. Our goal with this book is to give you a practical and thorough introduction to Python programming, providing you with the insight and technical craftsmanship you need to be a productive member of any Python project. Python is a big language, and it’s not our intention with this book to cover everything there is to know. We just want to make sure that you, as the developer, know the tools, basic idioms and of course the ins and outs of the language, the standard library and other modules to be able to jump into most projects.
