Àííîòàöèÿ: Who is Harlequin? To many men in the tough world of international finance George Harlequin, owner of the merchant bank Harlequin et Cie, is a playboy, an amateur. To Juliette, his wife, he is the perfect husband, the ideal lover - and beyond her reach. To Basil Yanko, millionaire head of a world-wide computer organisation, he is a man to be envied, despised - and bought out. As the struggle between the two men intensifies, it is Juliette Harlequin who pays the greatest price...

Àííîòàöèÿ: Italy, 1944. In a small, barren town in Calabria, the local partisans condemn a man to death. Allied deserter, traitor, collaborator, Giacomo Nerone deserved to die...or did he? Years after the war, there are those who remember Nerone as a saint- a wounded fugitive who appeared from nowhere to lead them through the harsh winter of the German occupation into spring. Saint or sinner? It is for the Church to pronounce - and Blaise Meredith, the cool, sceptical emissary from the Vatican, know to all as the Devil's Advocate.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Elegant, vivid, superbly written, this is Jan Morris's universally praised celebration of Spain in all her diversity.

Àííîòàöèÿ: This concluding volume brings readers up to the death of Winston Churchill in 1965. "Morris has written an unorthodox masterpiece...[a] book filled with superb studies of battles, ceremonies, landscapes, confrontations and, above all, characters" (New York Times Book Review).

Àííîòàöèÿ: This dictionary of the English language is an entirely new work and it represents in many respects a notable departure from previous British and American lexicographical practice.the editors of this dictionary approached their task imbued with a deep sense of responsibility as custodians of tradition in language.

Àííîòàöèÿ: The Macmillan First Dictionary can be termed a "pre-dictionary", in that it introduces students to dictionary skills and prepares them for the use of a more conventional reference book later on. The book concentrates on the two most important kinds of dictionary information: spelling and meaning.

Àííîòàöèÿ: This centerpiece of the trilogy captures the British at the height of their vigor and self-satisfaction, imposing their traditions and tastes, their idealists and rascals, on diverse peoples of the world.
