Tristán e Isolda
JD Smith
La historia de una promesa. La leyenda de un amor.
En una tierra llena de niebla y de pueblos desesperados, Tristán pelea para defender a Britania oriental de la invasión sajona. En el despertar de la batalla, vuelve a Cornualles portando graves noticias, provocando un cambio en el orden de poder.
Mientras Tristán defiende el este, su tío, el rey Marcos, enfrenta al enemigo que se encuentra al oeste, más allá del mar: Los Escudo de Sangre irlandeses. Marcos está decidido en unir los pueblos de Britania e Irlanda y forjar una alianza que permitiría ver el final de la guerra y el comienzo de la paz.
Isolda, hija de reyes irlandeses y una mujer de sangre, se resigna a su inevitable destino: casarse con el señor Morholt. Un duelo sangriento cambia el curso de su vida, provocando que se encuentre parada en las costas de Cornualles trayendo posibilidad de paz. Pero cuando pierde su corazón en un hombre y se casa con otro, su futuro, junto con el de Britania, se vuelve gris.
Tres personas y una esperanza que nunca se extinguirá. Esta es la historia de una promesa. La leyenda de un amor.

Opening the Black Box: The Work of Watching
Gavin J. D. Smith
Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras are a prominent, if increasingly familiar, feature of urbanism. They symbolize the faith that spatial authorities place in technical interventions for the treatment of social problems. CCTV was principally introduced to sterilize municipalities, to govern conducts and to protect properties. Vast expenditure has been committed to these technologies without a clear sense of how precisely they influence things. CCTV cameras might appear inanimate, but Opening the Black Box shows them to be vital mediums within relational circulations of supervision.

The book principally excavates the social relations entwining the everyday application of CCTV. It takes the reader on a journey from living beneath the camera, to working behind the lens. Attention focuses on the labour exerted by camera operators as they source and process distanced spectacles. These workers are paid to scan monitor screens in search of disorderly vistas, visualizing stimuli according to its perceived riskiness and/or allurement. But the projection of this gaze can draw an unsettling reflection. It can mean enduring behavioural extremities as an impotent witness. It can also entail making spontaneous decisions that determine the course of justice.

Opening the Black Box

, therefore, contemplates the seductive and traumatic dimensions of monitoring telemediated ‘riskscapes’ through the prism of camera circuitry. It probes the positioning of camera operators as ‘vicarious’ custodians of a precarious social order and engages their subjective experiences. It reveals the work of watching to be an ambiguous practice: as much about managing external disturbances on the street as managing internal disruptions in the self.

The Chemistry of Arsenic, Antimony and Bismuth: Pergamon Texts in Inorganic Chemistry
J. D. Smith
Pergamon Texts in Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 2: The Chemistry of Arsenic, Antimony and Bismuth focuses on the physical and chemical properties of arsenic, antimony, and bismuth.
This book discusses the alloys and intermetallic compounds; general aspects of the chemistry of arsenic; salts of antimony and bismuth; and organometallic compounds. The complexes of Arsenic(V), Antimony(V), and Bismuth(V), and mixed valency compounds and mechanisms of redox reactions are also elaborated.
This text describes the chemical and physical properties of compounds, such as hydrides EH3, halides EX3, oxides E2O3, halides EX5, sulfides E2S5, oxides E2O5, and related oxyacids.
This publication is intended for chemical engineering students and chemists researching on the characteristics of arsenic, antimony, and bismuth.
L'Ascesa di Zenobia
JD Smith
Il mio nome è Zabdas: un tempo uno schiavo; oggi un guerriero, un nonno, un servitore. Chiamo la Siria casa. Vi racconterò la storia della mia Zenobia: Regina Guerriera di Palmira, Protettrice dell'Oriente, Conquistatrice di Deserti...
L'Impero Romano è vicino al collasso. Odenato di Palmira protegge il confine siriano e le sue vitali strade commerciali dall'invasione persiana. Re cliente in una terra dimenticata, a corto di rinforzi, Odenato chiede aiuto a un vecchio amico, Giulio, per affrontare un antico nemico: i Tanukh.
Giulio crede che la Siria debba separarsi da Roma e dichiararsi indipendente. Ma le convinzioni di sua figlia sono ancora più forti. Zenobia è determinata a realizzare i sogni di suo padre.
E tradisce Roma...
“La magnifica caratterizzazione di JD Smith e la meticolosa ricerca dipingono un quadro vivido e drammatico della Sira del III secolo d.C., in un'epoca in cui Roma si sta disintegrando sotto il peso della sua stessa corruzione. La gioventù di Zenobia, uno dei personaggi storici più enigmatici, viene narrata attraverso gli occhi del cugino Zabdas, uno schiavo che diventa generale. Zabdas è il narratore perfetto e la sua storia segue Zenobia da ragazza intelligente e precoce a imperiosa manipolatrice di re e imperatori, dal regno desertico di Palmira a Roma, e ritorno. Pieno di passione, intrigo e drammaticità, trascina il lettore fino all'ultimissima pagina.”
Douglas Jackson, autore di Caligula "La Boadicea di Siria, una sedicente Cleopatra, e una Daenerys Targaryen in carne e ossa."
