About this Item

Wasserschaden / Verschmutzung; Geknickte Ecken; Deutlicher Riss. The Guardian is famous for its illustrated "Eyewitness" center spreads, which cast a sideways look at the news and reveal telling details or unexpected consequences of the day's events. Now, for the first time, they have gathered together a selection of these photographs to tell the story of the first decade of the 21st century, from the the sinking of the Russian nuclear submarine Kursk and George W. Bush's contested election in 2000, through 9/11, 7/7, conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Georgia, and Sudan, and on to the unveiling of the Large Hadron Collider and Obama's inauguration. The 2000s may be remembered as a turbulent decade punctuated by terrorist attacks, natural disasters, and financial meltdown, but what The Eyewitness Book of the Decade shows is that even in troubling times, moments of hope and humor shine through.

Synopsis

The Guardian is famous for its illustrated "Eyewitness" center spreads, which cast a sideways look at the news and reveal telling details or unexpected consequences of the day's events. Now, for the first time, they have gathered together a selection of these photographs to tell the story of the first decade of the 21st century, from the the sinking of the Russian nuclear submarine Kursk and George W. Bush's contested election in 2000, through 9/11, 7/7, conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Georgia, and Sudan, and on to the unveiling of the Large Hadron Collider and Obama's inauguration. The 2000s may be remembered as a turbulent decade punctuated by terrorist attacks, natural disasters, and financial meltdown, but what The Eyewitness Book of the Decade shows is that even in troubling times, moments of hope and humor shine through.

Store Description

B�cher kaufen und verkaufen an einem Ort, schnell und ohne Aufwand ? so lautet unser Bookbot Erfolgskonzept. Mit unserem innovativen Konzept machen wir mit Bookbot den Online-Buchhandel nachhaltiger und bringen hochwertige, gebrauchte B�cher antiquarisch in den Umlauf. Mit der Leidenschaft f�r B�cher, dem Wunsch ihren Lebenszyklus zu verl�ngern und dabei gleichzeitig die Umweltbelastung zu reduzieren, hat Dominik Gazdo? Bookbot gegr�ndet. Im klaren Fokus stehen dabei Kundenkomfort und Benutzerfreundlichkeit. Unsere Plattform verspricht Leser*innen eine breite Auswahl sowie einen sicheren Kaufprozess. Von Bestsellern �ber Klassiker bis hin zu Nischenliteratur bietet wir auch lesefreudigen �sterreicher*innen eine wahre Schatzkiste zu fairen Preisen. Im Gegensatz zu herk�mmlichen Verkaufsplattformen gehen wir einen Schritt weiter, indem wir den gesamten Verkaufs- und Versandprozess �bernehmen ? angefangen beim professionellen Abfotografieren der B�cher bis hin zur Ermittlung eines fairen Preises sowie der Kommunikation mit potenziellen K�ufer*innen. Verk�ufer*innen schicken lediglich ihre Buchsch�tze an uns und warten, bis diese neue Besitzer*innen finden und das Entgelt bei ihnen eintrudelt. Die breitgef�cherte Auswahl an Buch-Genres reicht von Klassikern, Bestsellern �ber alte Sch�tze und kultigen Comics bis hin zu Fachpublikationen. Wir bieten hunderttausende Titel aller Genres in vielen Sprachen, meist in perfektem Zustand an. Bei �lteren oder besch�digten B�chern finden sich online detaillierte Bilder des Zustands auf unserer Website. Wir sind stolz, bereits 200.000 gl�ckliche Bookbot-Kund*innen an Bord zu haben und bieten damit eine breite Community an vielen potentielle K�ufer*innen. Nach gelungenen Markteintritten in Tschechien, Deutschland und der Slowakei, sind wir nun auch in �sterreich t�tig.
