Mirror, Mirror: A Twisted Tale poses the question, what if the Evil Queen poisoned the prince? Following her beloved mother's death, the kingdom falls into the hands of Snow White's stepmother, commonly referred to as "the Evil Queen" by those she rules. Snow keeps her head down at the castle, hoping to make the best of her situation. But when new information about her parents resurfaces and a plot to kill her goes haywire, everything changes for Snow. With the help of a group of wary dwarfs, a kind prince she thought she'd never see again, and a mysterious stranger from her past, Snow embarks on a quest to stop the Evil Queen and take back her kingdom. But can she stop an enemy who knows her every move and will stop at nothing to retain her power... including going after the ones Snow loves?

The year is 1502, and seven-year-old Bianca de Nevada lives perched high above the rolling hills and valleys of Tuscany and Umbria at Montefiore, the farm of her beloved father, Don Vicente. One day a noble entourage makes its way up the winding slopes to the farm—and the world comes to Montefiore. In the presence of Cesare Borgia and his sister, the lovely and vain Lucrezia—decadent children of a wicked pope—no one can claim innocence for very long. When Borgia sends Don Vicente on a year's quest to reclaim a relic of the original Tree of Knowledge, he leaves Bianca under the care, so to speak, of Lucrezia. She plots a dire fate for the young girl in the woods below the farm, but in the dark forest there can be found salvation as well. . . . A lyrical work of stunning creative vision, Mirror Mirror gives fresh life to the classic story of Snow White—and has a truth and beauty all its own.

Of all human inventions, the mirror is perhaps the one most closely connected to our own consciousness. As our first technology for contemplation of the self, the mirror is arguably as important an invention as the wheel. Mirror Mirror is the fascinating story of the mirror's invention, refinement, and use in an astonishing range of human activities -- from the fantastic mirrored rooms that wealthy Romans created for their orgies to the mirror's key role in the use and understanding of light. Pendergrast spins tales of the 2,500year mystery of whether Archimedes and his "burning mirror" really set faraway Roman ships on fire; the medieval Venetian glassmakers, who perfected the technique of making large, flat mirrors from clear glass and for whom any attempt to leave their cloistered island was punishable by death; Isaac Newton, whose experiments with sunlight on mirrors once left him blinded for three days; the artist David Hockney, who holds controversial ideas about Renaissance artists and their use of optical devices; and George Ellery Hale, the manic-depressive astronomer and telescope enthusiast who inspired (and gave his name to) the twentieth century's largest ground-based telescope. Like mirrors themselves, Mirror Mirror is a book of endless wonder and fascination.

MIRROR MIRROR, Tell Me Who I Am – 2nd Edition (ePub version) A trail in the woods. A dog gone astray. A chance meeting with a mysterious stranger. And so begins James' journey of self-discovery. Following his dog into the forest, James crosses paths – literally – with Albert, a vaguely familiar stranger who seems to understand James' inner struggle. James and Albert agree to meet for a walk the following day, and the next day, and the day after. Slowly, a new trail emerges into view – a previously unseen path that leads to renewed happiness, personal satisfaction and well-being. It's a trail, you'll discover, that invites us all. This book is about each person's quest to create relevance in everyday living. It teaches you how to use your thoughts, emotions, and feelings to interpret and create your own experiences, so that your life reflects what is meaningful to you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Editorial review by: The Book Review Directory (https://bookreviewdirectory.com/2024/08/26/mirror-mirror-tell-me-who-i-am-editorial-review/) Title: Mirror Mirror, Tell Me Who I Am In Mirror Mirror, Tell Me Who I Am, Jacob Eapen writes a self-help book in the form of a story. We meet James, a dad and husband struggling with finding satisfaction in his career as he recovers from a debilitating disease. While walking his dog, James crosses paths with an older man, Albert, and they strike up a friendship in which Albert shares advice to help James find more fulfillment and happiness. At just over 26,000 words, Mirror Mirror, Tell Me Who I Am is a short, easy read that most people could manage to finish in a few days and return to on an as-needed basis. Eapen's choice to render a self-help book in a story format is a novel concept and engages readers who may otherwise find self-help books too clinical. We relate to each other through stories, so the author's decision to share advice about living one's best life in this way is encouraging and smart. The plot is straightforward. James is unhappy, especially at work. Many people can relate to feeling unfulfilled at their jobs and may grow frustrated that they don't feel heard when they go to their boss with concerns. This is James' problem. Although he has made a remarkable recovery from an illness that paralyzed him, that he still isn't happy shows how we are as people. We often think we will be content once we accomplish the next big goal on our checklist, but anyone who has lived long enough knows this isn't true. The fact that James and Albert develop a friendship that occurs while walking their dogs and talking about life is a solid bedrock upon which to build the narrative. Albert has wise counsel for James, but at times, Albert feels like more of an instrument to relay information rather than a fully formed character. Meanwhile, James is rendered as the listener who doesn't have much to contribute. James has the potential to shine, but this would require a longer book. Most of the plot revolves around Albert and James's conversations. There are fleeting moments with James' wife, Anne, and he has two teenage sons, but they're never given names or dialogue. James is a husband and a father on top of being a man who doesn't like his job, and fleshing out these other interactions would enrich his character and the lessons the book wishes to teach. When Albert and James have their last interaction, James summarizes how he used Albert's advice when speaking with his boss and how it worked, but the actual scene in which this interaction occurs would, again, bring James's story to life more. It's understandable that Eapen's first goal for this book to be of the self-help variety, but by choosing to create a fiction story and weave the advice into a didactic setting, the author has room to expand on James' character and story and thus on the reader's experience. Overall, however, Eapen accomplishes his intention of sharing advice about pursuing happiness in life and how we are all the crafters of our reality based on our attitude. It is certainly true that how we approach a situation has a big impact on how it may play out. Mirror Mirror, Tell Me Who I Am is a creative take on the self-help variety because it shares its information in story form. For readers who are seeking advice on enriching their lives and don't have a lot of time to devote to reading, Mirror Mirror, Tell Me Who I Am is a solid choice. Jacob Eapen's book is a good recommendation to those who enjoyed The Secret but are seeking more grounding feedback.

The first two seasons of Star Trek: Discovery, the newest instalment in the long-running and influential Star Trek franchise, received media and academic attention from the moment they arrived on screen. Discovery makes several key changes to Star Trek’s well-known narrative formulae, particularly the use of more serialized storytelling, appealing to audiences’ changed viewing habits in the streaming age – and yet the storylines, in their topical nature and the broad range of socio-political issues they engage with, continue in the political vein of the series’ megatext. This volume brings together eighteen essays and one interview about the series, with contributions from a variety of disciplines including cultural studies, literary studies, media studies, fandom studies, history and political science. They explore representations of gender, sexuality and race, as well as topics such as shifts in storytelling and depictions of diplomacy. Examining Discovery alongside older entries into the Star Trek canon and tracing emerging continuities and changes, this volume will be an invaluable resource for all those interested in Star Trek and science fiction in the franchise era. List of contributors: Sherryl Vint, Andrea Whiteacre, Torsten Kathke, John Andreas Fuchs, Ina Batzke, Sarah Böhlau, Will Tattersdill, Kerstin-Anja Münderlein, Diana Mafe, Whit Frazier Peterson, Henrik Schillinger, Arne Sönnichsen, Judith Rauscher, Amy C.

This comprehensive and highly readable textbook teaches how to formally reason about computer programs using an incremental approach and the verification-aware programming language Dafny. Program Proofs shows students what it means to write specifications for programs, what it means for programs to satisfy those specifications, and how to write proofs that connect specifications and programs. Writing with clarity and humor, K. Rustan M. Leino first provides an overview of the basic theory behind reasoning about programs. He then gradually builds up to complex concepts and applications, until students are facing real programs using objects, data structures, and non-trivial recursion. To emphasize the practical nature of program proofs, all material and examples use the verification-aware programming language Dafny, but no previous knowledge of Dafny is assumed. Written in a highly readable and student-friendly style Builds up to complex concepts in an incremental manner Comprehensively covers how to write proofs and how to specify and verify both functional programs and imperative programs Uses real program text from a real programming language, not psuedo code Features engaging illustrations and hands-on learning exercises

If you have had any affiliation to any individual, this book is definitely for you. Expressions of the Heart is a collection of poems which emanated from the heart of the author, expressly for readers like you. It sets out to serve as a comfort and inspiration to all readers. It embraces real life issues in a manner that gives meaning to some of the experiences that are buried deep inside us as well as those we encounter in our daily living. The use of figurative language, sets to present you with novel ways of unfolding those feelings. Expressions of the Heart allows you to reflect on your situations, and encourages you to personalize the experiences of others so that the poems do not become just words on paper, but something that you can relate to or imagine; something captivating, something REAL. It also presents life experiences from a Caribbean culture which can be quite different from that of other cultures around the world. For example, common law unions are often frowned upon, especially in times of death and people make judgements about the souls of those who died in those unions. Such issues are addressed in the book so as to allow the voices of those caught in the 'seat of judgement' to to be heard and understood. No matter what your interests are, you will enjoy moments of joy and laughter coupled with feelings of sadness for unfulfilled love. You will experience something. There is something for everyone. .
