International Express Intermediate, New Edition - A new edition that retains the successful combination of general and work-related English with over 70% new material.
One of the best reading materials and activities I have ever come across. Great when preparing or teaching for CAE. CAE Reading Skills helps students to develop the general skills necessary for the CAE Paper 1 and, at the same time, familiarizes them with the different task types that they will encounter in this part of the exam. Section A of each unit concentrates on a different Paper 1 exercise format, whereas Section B concentrates on the development of general strategies such as reading for gist.
Understanding EinsteinBy Bertrand Russell Narrated by Sir Derek Jacobi
Ask a dozen people to name a genius and the odds are that ‘Einstein’ will spring to their lips. Ask them the meaning of ‘relativity’ and few of them will be able to tell you what it is. The basic principles of relativity have not changed since Bertrand Russell first published his lucid guide for the general reader. The ABC of Relativity is Bertrand Russell’s most brilliant work of scientific popularisation. With marvellous lucidity he steers the reader who has no knowledge of maths or physics through the subtleties of Einstein’s thinking. In easy, assimilable steps, he explains the theories of special and general relativity and describes their practical application to, amongst much else, discoveries about gravitation and the invention of the hydrogen bomb. ‘An ideal introduction to the theories of special and general relativity.’ –Nature
для тех, кто не чужд науке.
