  A set of leather-bound books on a stand "Aviation History" A set of leather-bound books on a stand "Aviation History" Aviation played a significant role in the First World War. But even before airplanes, balloons and airships appeared in service. This book is devoted to the history of these aircraft in our country. They were used for aerial reconnaissance and correction of artillery fire, protected cities from raids, and in peacetime served to study the atmosphere and stratosphere, and were used to solve cosmonautics problems. Automatic balloons are still being used today. Russian and Soviet aeronauts have written a number of glorious pages in the history of world aeronautics. They own many world records for altitude and flight duration, interesting design solutions and priorities in the field of aerostatic aircraft applications. Over the years, the author's team has been collecting archival documents and memoirs of veterans to write this book, which is the most comprehensive work on the history of Russian aeronautics. With the abundance of publications on the history of aviation, so far there has been no generalizing work on the history of domestic lighter-than-air vehicles - balloons and airships. The proposed book fills this gap. (This statement of the authors is somewhat strange, because in the 90s a two-volume "Domestic Aeronautics" was published, among the co-authors of which was Pavlushenko. - Ed.) The authors sought to cover as fully as possible all aspects of the development of domestic aeronautics, including military, scientific and sports. The boundaries between them are sometimes very difficult to draw, since scientific research was often carried out by military balloonists on military balloons, and sports records were set during scientific flights by civilian and military aeronauts. The history of educational and scientific institutions and public organizations of Russian aeronautics is also described. Sports aeronautics was covered only until the 50s of the XX century. For readers interested in the current state of sports aeronautics, we recommend the magazine "Aeronaut", published since 1995 by V.G. Latypov. The discovery of archival funds previously inaccessible to researchers gave the authors the opportunity to highlight in the book the issues of the stratospheric program of the USSR, German-Soviet and American-Soviet cooperation in the construction of rigid airships, the pre-war helium program of the USSR, as well as a number of other subjects. The work uses materials from the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ARAN), the Russian State Archive of the Navy (RGA Navy), the Russian State Archive of Film and Photographic Documents (RGA KFD), the Central Archive of Film and Photographic Documents of St. Petersburg (TSAKFD SPb), the Russian State Military Historical Archive (RGVIA), the Russian State Archive of Modern Political History (RGASPI), the Russian State Archive of Economics (RGAE), the Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation (CAMO of the Russian Federation), the Scientific Memorial Museum named after N.E. Zhukovsky (NMM), the Dolgoprudny Historical and Art Museum (DICHM), the Dolgoprudny Design Bureau of Automation (DKBA), documents from private collections, books and periodicals, as well as information gleaned from conversations with veterans of Russian aeronautics.

  The leather-bound book "Russian Truth, rules, and teachings" by V. Monomakh. The leather-bound book "Russian Truth, rules, and teachings" by V. Monomakh. The book "Russian Truth. Regulation. The Teachings" is a publication in which the past takes on flesh and voice. The binding is made of deep black genuine leather, decorated with voluminous embossing and gold elements, like a shield, carefully protects the knowledge left to descendants by Grand Duke Vladimir Monomakh. On the cover is his face in the tradition of an ancient miniature, encased in a floral crown, referring to the chronicle style and the idea of enlightened government. Every detail of the publication, from the decorative inserts to the coat of arms of the Russian Federation, underlines its importance as not just a book, but a historical relic, worthy of a place in the collection of an intellectual and a connoisseur of the Great Russian tradition. Formally, Vladimir Monomakh's reign lasted only 12 years, but his influence spread over decades, becoming decisive in the formation of a unified state. Being a person involved in and an arbitrator of political processes long before ruling in Kiev, Monomakh not only inherited power, but also played the role of its core — under his father, Vsevolod Yaroslavich, and uncle, Svyatopolk. With his death, the era did not end — it was continued by his son Mstislav the Great, completing a half-century cycle that went down in history as the Golden Age of ancient Russian statehood. Never before, even under Yaroslav the Wise or Vladimir Svyatoslavich, the baptist of Russia, had the Russian land known such a degree of consolidation and power. Vladimir Monomakh combined military prowess, political wisdom and moral strength, becoming a symbol of sovereign service. However, history is inexorable: the peak always anticipates the decline. After him, Russia entered an era of fragmentation, losing its former greatness. But the memory of the sovereign, who inspired the princes and the people to community and unity, has not faded. His word, contained in "Teaching children," has not sunk into oblivion. It formed the basis for the education of future generations — not as an abstract edifying text, but as a living school of courage, reason and loyalty to duty. His legal statutes became the basis of law and order, and his personal example became the standard of princely behavior. This book does not just reproduce historical texts, but puts them into an artistic form that allows us to perceive the ancient truth through the prism of a modern understanding of honor and service. The publication is intended for those who seek not to possess things, but to gain access to meaning. It is a gift expressing respect for intelligence, fine taste and a desire for deep understanding of native history. The book will become a worthy companion in the office of a thinking person, next to globes, old maps and objects that carry the beat of the ages.

У нас в стране их считают героями, в Британии — предателями своего поколения. Эта книга уникальна тем, что подготовлена на основе архивных материалов СВР России. Читатель впервые увидит десятки только что рассекреченных подлинных документов, переданных Кимом Филби и его друзьями в Центр. Накануне и в годы Второй мировой войны члены группы передали в Москву огромное количество секретной информации, которая позволила сохранить жизни десятков, а может, и сотен тысяч советских солдат и приблизила Победу. Можно с уверенностью сказать, что в середине ХХ века не было такого важного события, по которому от членов «пятёрки» не поступало бы ценной информации. Это и планы Гитлера по нападению на СССР, и битва под Москвой, и Курская дуга, и попытки гитлеровских вождей вести сепаратные переговоры за спиной у нашей страны, и замыслы милитаристской Японии… В разный период времени каждый из «кембриджцев» оказывался на острие событий, но с точки зрения профессионалов разведки, ее организационным стержнем, незримым ангелом-хранителем, надежной опорой всегда оставался Ким Филби.

Scientific results of the Kuznetsov brothers expedition to the Polar Urals in 1909, under the command of O.O. Backlund. On September 22, 1909, the head of the expedition, Oleg Backlund, sent a telegram from the village of Samarovsky, present-day Khanty-Mansiysk, addressed to Academician Chernyshev: "The Kara expedition, having successfully completed the route, completed the work on September 16" (Minutes of the meetings of the FMO, 1909). On this day, the members of the expedition of the Kuznetsov brothers (the second name of the "Kara expedition") boarded a steamer going up the Ob River, and on October 2 returned to Tyumen without any special incidents. The four and a half months that passed between May 10 and October 2 were filled with intensive research work and constant movement from place to place - on steamboats, boats, deer, sleds. Many hundreds of miles have been covered. Even the most concise and dry retelling of the route completed during these summer months speaks eloquently about the scale of the research carried out. The text of the book is accompanied by a large number of drawings, tables and maps. The North Ural expedition of the Academy of Sciences and the Russian Geographical Society in 1909 made a valuable contribution to the study of the polar tip of the Ural Mountains. The name Polar Urals has finally been fixed in science. They began to call the northernmost part of the Ural Mountains - north of 66 ° C.

The author also points out the absence of descriptions of some devices in old marine journals. In the first part of the manual, the devices necessary for the navigation course are considered, descriptions of which are not available in textbooks accepted at the VMU. Some details beyond the VMU course are introduced in order to meet the needs of the S.K.K.S. Navigator Class.

The scientist made an invaluable contribution to the development of pharmaceuticals. His journal Pharmaceuticals (1794-1834) held a leading position for several decades in a row, until Justus von Liebig began publishing his Annalen der Chemie in 1832. At the end of the XVIII century, he founded a boarding school, which focused on the study of chemistry and physics. The educational institution existed until 1828. During this time, more than three hundred students have been educated within its walls. The school played an important role in training the founding generation of the German pharmaceutical industry. Trommsdorf's numerous texts were extremely popular, most of them went through many editions in Germany and abroad. In 1811, the fourth edition underwent many corrections. The book "Chemical instructions for writing recipes" was released with the approval of the Censorship Committee established for the District of the Imperial Moscow University, translated by Ivan Popov, later a veteran of 1812 and a district doctor of Mologi, Yaroslavl province, while studying at the Medical and Surgical Academy. The book has an all-leather binding of the epoch with the pressed seal of the Imperial Medical Academy on the front cover.
