  • Perfect Sight without Glasses (Summarized Edition)

    Enriched edition. A Self-Help Guide to Natural Vision Improvement with Visual Exercises, Eye Muscle Strengthening, and Mind-eye Connection Methods

    de William Horatio Bates, Selene Dorswell, Abigail Hill ...
    Perfect Sight Without Glasses sets out Bates's radical claim that vision improves by relieving strain rather than by wearing lenses. In clinical yet polemical prose, he braids case histories, retinoscopic notes, and exercises—palming, sunning, shifting, "central fixation"—arguing that accommodation reflects extraocular muscular action and that refractive errors fluctuate with attention and emotion ...

    de George Eliot, Abigail Hill, Abigail Hill ...
    Set in the years around the 1832 Reform Bill, Middlemarch: A Study of Provincial Life interweaves Dorothea Brooke's thwarted idealism, Lydgate's medical ambitions, and the Vincys' fortunes into a patient anatomy of a town.

    Traducido por Edward James Chinnock ...
    Arrian's Anabasis of Alexander is a lucid, classicizing chronicle of the Macedonian's campaigns from the Hellespont to the Hyphasis. In measured, Xenophontic prose, it marries crisp battle narratives—Granicus, Issus, Gaugamela—to analyses of logistics, siegecraft, and provincial settlement, with ethnographic asides and sparing speeches.

    First published in 1923, Bambi: A Life in the Woods traces a deer's growth from fawn to seasoned survivor through seasons of courtship, scarcity, and mortal risk. Salten's spare, lyrical realism and unsentimental anthropomorphism produce a modernist animal bildungsroman: impressionistic vignettes, close focalization, and the ominous figure of "Him" refract ecological fact into parable, guided by ...
