A Collection of Short Stories
An enchanting new collection of twenty-nine short stories from Nobel Prize–winning author Gabriel García Márquez, a master storyteller who “forces upon us at every page the wonder and extravagance of life” (New York Review of Books) Spanning more than two decades, this collection combines humor, history, and mysticism to tell stories about the frightfully poor and outrageously rich, lost opportunities and present joys, memories, illusions, death, and other themes that resound throughout García Márquez’s fiction. Stories include: “The Third Resignation”“Eva Is Inside Her Cat”“Tubal-Cain Forges a Star”“The Other Side of Death”“Dialogue with the Mirror”“Bittern...
No One Writes to the Colonel, and Other Stories
Written with compassionate realism and wit, the stories in this mesmerizing collection depict the disparities of town and village life in South America, of the frightfully poor and outrageously rich, of memories and illusions, and of lost opportunities and present joys.

Collected Stories
Sweeping through crumbling towns, travelling fairs and windswept ports, Gabriel García Márquez introduces a host of extraordinary characters and communities in his mesmerising tales of everyday life: smugglers, bagpipers, the President and Pope at the funeral of Macondo's revered matriarch; a very old angel with enormous wings. Teeming with the magical oddities for which his novels are loved, Márquez's stories are a delight. Gabriel García Márquez's Collected Stories are re-issued on Gabriel García Márquez 's birthday to celebrate the publication of his books as ebooks for the first time.
Adverbial Modification
This volume contains a selection of papers presented at the Cinquième Colloque de Linguistique Romane/Fifth Colloquium on Romance Linguistics, which was held at Groningen University in September 1998. The theme of the colloquium was ‘adverbial modification in Romance languages'. Therefore, adverbial modification is the common denominator of the works in this volume. However, and interestingly enough, the viewpoints taken by the Various authors differ considerably: some of the works deal with traditional adverbs (Ocampo, Kampers-Manhe, Bok-Bennema, Molendijk), others with elements such as mood (de Jonge, Quer) or negation (de Swart). Degree modification is discussed by Cover and Doetjes. M...

Nuclear Power
Advances in reactor designs, materials and human-machine interfaces guarantee safety and reliability of emerging reactor technologies, eliminating possibilities for high-consequence human errors as those which have occurred in the past. New instrumentation and control technologies based in digital systems, novel sensors and measurement approaches facilitate safety, reliability and economic competitiveness of nuclear power options. Autonomous operation scenarios are becoming increasingly popular to consider for small modular systems. This book belongs to a series of books on nuclear power published by InTech.

The book targets a broad potential readership group - students, researchers and specialists in the field - who are interested in learning about nuclear power.
Alle verhalen
In Alle verhalen zijn alle korte en langere verhalen van de Colombiaanse Nobelprijs-winnaar Gabriel García Márquez (Aracataca 1928) bijeengebracht. Vroege verhalen, waarin Márquez in speelse en wrede, maar vooral absurde vertellingen probeert de onwerkelijkheid werkelijkheid te laten worden, zoals ‘Ogen van een blauwe hond’ en ‘Tubal-Kaïn smeedt een ster’, dat voor deze bundel voor het eerst in het Nederlands werd vertaald. Of de verhalen die zich afspelen in het legendarisch geworden Macondo, ‘een soort vergrootglas van de Latijns-Amerikaanse werkelijkheid’. ‘De uitvaart van Mamá Grande’ is bijvoorbeeld een satire op de plaatselijke matriarchale maatschappij – mannen ...
