Nittonåriga Edmond Dantès anklagas på falska grunder för landsförräderi och skickas - utan rättegång - till det ensligt belägna fängelset på ön Château d'If utanför Marseille. Genom en tunnel mellan cellerna möter han den italienska fången Abbé Faria, präst och akademiker, som berättar om en skatt gömd på ön Monte Cristo. När Faria dör smugglar Dantès hans kropp till sin egen cell och tar i sin tur Farias plats i liksäcken, och lyckas rymma när säcken slängs i havet. Han ska hämnas på de män vars avundsjuka satte honom i fängelse, och han ska hitta skatten på Monte Cristo. Alexandre Dumas klassiska äventyrsroman Greven av Monte Cristo presenteras här i en efterlängtad nyutgåva, i översättning och bearbetning av Jakob Gunnarsson.

The first complete English translation of a controversial Renaissance debate centering moral questions on power and leadership.Poggio Bracciolini was a prominent scholar-official of the early Renaissance and a leading representative of Florentine humanism. He was employed as a secretary to seven popes and ended his career as Chancellor of the Republic of Florence. On Leaders and Tyrants contains texts, the majority by Poggio, relating to a controversy on the relative merits of the lives and deeds of Scipio Africanus and Julius Caesar. The debate addressed the nature of tyranny and military glory, as well as the qualities necessary for republican leaders, such as Stoic virtue, lawfulness, and good citizenship. Poggio’s primary opponent was the educator Guarino of Verona, a humanist in the service of the duke of Ferrara. The psychology of power, the demands placed on public servants, and the dividing line between leadership and tyranny are as topical today as they were when Poggio wrote. This volume contains a fresh edition of the Latin texts and the first complete translation of the controversy into English.

Almost everyone is familiar with Monte Carlo's association with gambling, and its famous Casino. Many may also have come across the Monte Carlo fallacy, so-called after the Casino's roulette wheel ball fell on black 26th times in a row, costing players, who believed that the law of averages made such streaks impossible, millions of dollars. However, the Casino also lends its name to a tool of statistical forecasting, the Monte Carlo simulation, used to model the probability of uncertain outcomes that cannot be easily predicted from mathematical equations. This book provides a detailed account for how aspiring sports bettors can use a Monte Carlo simulation to improve the quality, and hopefully profitability, of their betting, and in doing so unravels the mystery of probability and variance that lies at the heart of all gambling.

I den finstämda och egensinniga novellen Monte Carlo gör Stina Stoor ett målande nedslag i Sandras sommarsångsland. Där finns Farsan, och Anneli, och bygden som vi först lärde känna i berättelsen Ojura från 2013, men där finns också Himmelshunden, pojkmannen och den slingrande vägen över Bränngropsåsen.Sandra kan som inte somna om när storasyster, så där, sent så det nästan är tidigt, väl har kommit hem. När Anneli faktiskt fått in armen under Sandras huvud (där den saknats). Håller om så och passar sig in.När en kall nästipp söker sig in i den orediga randen mellan Sandras flätor, och kalla tuttar kommer mjuka mot en nyss sovvarm rygg. Nej. Sandra kan inte somna om.Och Annelis oflätade frisyr, bara överallt, på hela randiga kudden. Hur håret ligger där som riktiga rökslingor från nattens alla norpade cigaretter. En blond rök av annat liv, som landat nu.Stina Stoor, född 1982, är uppvuxen, bosatt och verksam utanför Bjurholm i Västerbotten. 2012 tilldelades hon Umeå novellpris för berättelsen För vår del och och kort därefter gav Novellix, som första förlag, ut en av hennes noveller - den mycket omtyckta Ojura (2013). Två år senare utkom novellsamlingen Bli som folk på Norstedts. Boken hyllades av en enig kritikerkår och nominerades det året till Augustpriset. Juryns motivering löd: “Bli som folk är inget mindre än en förnyelse av den svenska novellkonsten. Så.” Expressen kallade samlingen “årets vackraste debut” och Svenska Dagbladet menade att “Stoor berättar med självklar auktoritet, på ett starkt dialektalt präglat språk som sjunger och målar sig fram i texten”.Novellix ger ut små, snygga böcker med en novell per bok. Både klassiker och nyskrivet - allt ifrån Virginia Woolf till Håkan Nesser! Samtliga böcker med originalomslag av svenska formgivare, illustratörer och konstnärer. Novellix-novellerna säljs både styckvis och förpackade i fina presentaskar. Stora läsupplevelser i ett litet format.

The story of Edmund Dantes, self-styled Count of Monte Cristo, is told with consummate skill. The victim of a miscarriage of justice, Dantes is fired by a desire for retribution and empowered by a stroke of providence. In his campaign of vengeance, he becomes an anonymous agent of fate. The sensational narrative of intrigue, betrayal, escape, and triumphant revenge moves at a cracking pace. Dumas‘ novel presents a powerful conflict between good and evil embodied in an epic saga of rich diversity that is complicated by the hero’s ultimate discomfort with the hubristic implication of his own actions. Our edition is based on the most popular and enduring translation first published by Chapman and Hall in 1846. The name of the translator was never revealed.
