《白奴》是一部控诉十九世纪三十年代至五十年代美国蓄奴制的作品。通过一对青年混血奴隶夫妇备受主人迫害、几度悲欢离合、几度被奴隶贩子拍卖、最后获得自由、团聚的故事,描述了奴隶们牛马不如的生活、揭露了南方蓄奴主形形色色的残酷嘴脸,塑造了奋起反抗、至死不屈的黑奴汤姆斯的形象;同时也揭穿了当时北方的所谓“自由州”,以至于整个美国联邦政府,实质上都在为南方的蓄奴主当捕快,帮助他们追缉逃奴,凌迟处死,设计特务机构,迫害废奴派。

《中华人民共和国国家标准:工程测量规范(GB50026-2007)》共有10章7个附录，增加了术语和符号、地下管线测量两章内容和附录A精度要求较高工程的中误差评定方法。以电子记录、计算机成图、计算机数据处理为修编主线，并同时保留手工测量作业的方法。

Grade 1-3-As a young lawyer, Abe Lincoln found that his stovepipe hat came in handy for more than just covering his head. It also served as a good place to keep important papers. Brenner weaves this and other anecdotes about our 16th president into this easy-to-read selection. Watercolor illustrations highlight the sometimes choppy but informative text. Pair with David Adler's A Picture Book of Abraham Lincoln (Holiday, 1989) where beginning biographies are in demand.

本书除了揭示美、法、德三国处理同性恋问题的不同模式,还告诉大家同性恋问题并非只是性爱史的一个次要部分,它在社会形态和表现的历史上自有其地位,它作为一种吸引或反感的作用揭示一个社会的幻想和恐惧。当然,作者并不企图仅仅借助性爱来解释两次大战之间的阶段、纳粹问题和二战的发生。显然,经济、政治和社会因素起着决定性作用。另外,本书也不同于心理学史,尽管有时借助心理分析的假设也能说明问题。作者认为同性恋史研究应该把舆论的恐惧和政府的恐惧区别对待,也许应重新估量性幻想在社会想象中的分量。

As his fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry approaches, 15-year-old Harry Potter is in full-blown adolescence, complete with regular outbursts of rage, a nearly debilitating crush, and the blooming of a powerful sense of rebellion. It's been yet another infuriating and boring summer with the despicable Dursleys, this time with minimal contact from our hero's non-Muggle friends from school. Harry is feeling especially edgy at the lack of news from the magic world, wondering wh

Great love stories thrive on sacrifice. Throughout The Twilight Saga
(Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse), Stephenie Meyer has emulated great
love stories--Romeo and Juliet, Wuthering Heights--with the fated, yet
perpetually doomed love of Bella (the human girl) and Edward (the
vampire who feeds on animals instead of humans). In Breaking Dawn, the
fourth and final installment in the series, Bella’s story plays out in
some unexpected ways. The ongoing conflicts that made this series so

In his debut novel, The Kite Runner, Khaled Hosseini accomplishes what very few contemporary novelists are able to do。 He manages to provide an educational and eye-opening account of a country’s political turmoil--in this case, Afghanistan--while also developing characters whose heartbreaking struggles and emotional triumphs resonate with readers long after the last page has been turned over。 And he does this on his first try。
The Kite Runner follows the story of Amir, the privileged son of a

Say you've spent the first 10 years of your life sleeping under the stairs of a family who loathes you. Then, in an absurd, magical twist of fate you find yourself surrounded by wizards, a caged snowy owl, a phoenix-feather wand, and jellybeans that come in every flavor, including strawberry, curry, grass, and sardine. Not only that, but you discover that you are a wizard yourself! This is exactly what happens to young Harry Potter in J.K. Rowling's enchanting, funny debut novel, Harry Potter an
