HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'I cannot but conclude the bulk of your natives to be the most pernicious race of little odious vermin that nature ever suffered to crawl upon the surface of the earth.' Shipwrecked on the high seas, Lemuel Gulliver finds himself washed up on the strange island of Lilliput, a land inhabited by quarrelsome miniature people. On his travels he continues to meet others who force him to reflect on human behaviour - the giants of Brobdingnag, the Houyhnhnms and the Yahoos. In this scathing satire on the politics and morals of the 18th Century, Swift's condemnation of society and its institutions still resonates today. Product details Format Paperback ...

"Hemos de mirar cara a cara a la realidad: el sacerdocio parece tambalearse. Algunos sacerdotes son como los marineros de una nave violentamente sacudida por el huracán. Dan bandazos y pierden el equilibrio. ¿Quién no se hace preguntas cuando lee ciertos testimonios de abuso infantil? ¿En quién no surgen dudas? El sacerdocio, su estatus, su misión, su autoridad se han puesto al servicio de lo peor; se ha instrumentalizado para ocultar, tapar e incluso justificar la profanación de la inocencia de los niños. En ocasiones se ha usado la autoridad episcopal para pervertir -cuando no para truncar- la generosidad de quienes deseaban consagrarse a Dios. En el corazón de sacerdotes, obispos y cardenales se ha filtrado la búsqueda de una gloria mundana, de poder, de honores, de placeres terrenales. ¿Quién es capaz de asumir esta realidad sin estremecerse, sin llorar, sin hacerse preguntas? No podemos aparentar que todo esto carece de importancia, que todo esto no es más que un percance. Al...

This highly anticipated second edition features new chapters and sections, 225 new references, and comprehensive R software. In keeping with the previous edition, this book is about the art and science of data analysis and predictive modelling, which entails choosing and using multiple tools. Instead of presenting isolated techniques, this text emphasises problem solving strategies that address the many issues arising when developing multi-variable models using real data and not standard textbook examples. Regression Modelling Strategies presents full-scale case studies of non-trivial data-sets instead of over-simplified illustrations of each method. These case studies use freely available R functions that make the multiple imputation, model building, validation and interpretation tasks described in the book relatively easy to do. Most of the methods in this text apply to all regression models, but special emphasis is given to multiple regression using generalised least squares for lon...

A guide to identifying, nurturing and growing our insight and creativity for more effective thinking. We know that our minds are capable of great things because, every now and then, they come out with a very brilliant idea or two. However, our minds are also tantalisingly unpredictable, spending worryingly large stretches of time idling or distracting themselves. This is a book about how to optimise these beautiful yet fitful instruments so that they can more regularly and generously produce the sort of insights and ideas we need to fulfil our potential - and achieve the contentment we deserve. We learn - among other things - how to grasp fragile and flighty thoughts before they disappear through anxiety and fear, at what times of day to try to work and for how long, how to make use of our boredom and instincts - and how to overcome timid and predictable approaches to the largest problems.
