The Art of Money Getting, or Golden Rules for Making Money
P. T. Barnum, the great American showman of the 19th century, wrote this short book about making and keeping money. He certainly had life experiences that qualify him for the subject--he started a small newspaper in his twenties, bought and transformed a museum into a showplace for curiosities, built a circus empire that gave performances in America and Europe, promoted a performing tour of a singer, fell into debt in the 1850s and pulled himself out by lecture tours, was a mayor, and founded a hospital.Excerpts:"Those who really desire to attain an independence, have only to set their minds upon it, and adopt the proper means, as they do in regard to any other object which they wish to accomplish, and the thing is easily done. But however easy it may be found to make money, I have no doubt many of my hearers will agree it is the most difficult thing in the world to keep it. ... True economy consists in always making the income exceed the out-go.""Unless a man enters upon the vocation intended for him by nature, and best suited to his peculiar genius, he cannot succeed. I am glad to believe that the majority of persons do find their right vocation. Yet we see many who have mistaken their calling..."His advice is indicated by the chapter titles:DON'T MISTAKE YOUR VOCATION,SELECT THE RIGHT LOCATION,AVOID DEBT,PERSEVERE,WHATEVER YOU DO, DO IT WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT,USE THE BEST TOOLS,DON'T GET ABOVE YOUR BUSINESS,LEARN SOMETHING USEFUL,LET HOPE PREDOMINATE, BUT BE NOT TOO VISIONARY,DO NOT SCATTER YOUR POWERS,BE SYSTEMATIC,READ THE NEWSPAPERS,BEWARE OF "OUTSIDE OPERATIONS",DON'T INDORSE WITHOUT SECURITY,ADVERTISE YOUR BUSINESS,"DON'T READ THE OTHER SIDE",BE POLITE AND KIND TO YOUR CUSTOMERS,BE CHARITABLE,DON'T BLAB,PRESERVE YOUR INTEGRITY.

The American Roommate Experiment
From the author of the Goodreads Choice Award winner The Spanish Love Deception, the eagerly anticipated follow-up featuring Rosie Graham and Lucas Martin, who are forced to share a New York apartment.
Rosie Graham has a problem. A few, actually. She just quit her well paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer. She hasn't told her family and now has terrible writer's block. Then, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. Luckily she has her best friend Lina's spare key while she's out of town. But Rosie doesn't know that Lina has already lent her apartment to her cousin Lucas, who Rosie has been stalking-for lack of a better word-on Instagram for the last few months. Lucas seems intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armour. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel, has a distracting grin, and an irresistible accent. Oh, and he cooks.
Lucas offers to let Rosie stay with him, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. And then he proposes an outrageous experiment to bring back her literary muse and meet her deadline: He'll take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump-start her romantic inspiration. Rosie has nothing to lose. Her silly, online crush is totally under control-but Lucas's time in New York has an expiration date, and six weeks may not be enough, for either her or her deadline.
The Beatles - Get Back
Az eredeti angol kiadással egy időben magyarul is olvasható lesz az új Beatles-filmhez kapcsolódó exkluzív könyv!
1969 januárjában a Beatles azzal a nagyszabású tervvel vágott neki az új esztendőnek, hogy egy különleges show keretében filmre veszik, ahogy dalokat írnak és próbálnak, majd előadják őket közönség előtt. A később Get Back néven ismertté vált projekt kétszeresen is visszatérést jelentett, hiszen az együttes ekkor már két és fél éve nem koncertezett, a kísérletező korszakukat követően pedig vissza akartak kanyarodni az eredeti rockos gyökerekhez. Egy hónapon keresztül kamerák és mikrofonok rögzítették minden szavukat, ám hogy végül mi valósult meg az elképzelésekből, azt meséli el az akkor rögzített dialógusok alapján ez a fotókkal gazdagon illusztrált kötet, amely szorosan kapcsolódik a Peter Jackson rendezte, azonos című új Beatles-filmhez.
Fix the System, Not the Women
10 years after founding the Everyday Sexism Project, feminist writer and activist Laura Bates connects the dots between the 'isolated incidents' of violence against women and the institutional and systemic misogyny that is so deeply ingrained in our society. Every three days in the UK, women are murdered by their current or former partners. 137 women worldwide are killed by a family member every day.These are not isolated incidents. They are part of a devastatingly clear pattern. But it is a pattern we are so used to seeing that we simply don't notice it anymore.These incidents are the product of a society in which misogyny is so deeply ingrained that it has simply become part of our daily lives. This book will lay these patterns bare for everyone to see. Joining the dots from an epidemic of school sexual violence to the failings of the police and CPS, institutional and systemic misogyny, political apathy and media distortion, this will be an examination of how the entire system lets women and girls down, again and again.In Isolated Incidents, Laura puts forward her own bold and ambitious solution for combating misogyny and violence against women - one that includes structural change and tackles institutionalised prejudice. Enough is enough.
Too often, we blame women. For walking home alone at night. For not demanding a seat at the table. For not overcoming the odds that are stacked against them.
This distracts us from the real problem: the failings and biases of a society that was not built for women. In this explosive book, feminist writer and activist Laura Bates exposes the systemic prejudice at the heart of five of our key institutions.
Education
Politics
Media
Policing
Criminal justice
Combining stories with shocking evidence, Fix the System, Not the Women is a blazing examination of sexual injustice and a rallying cry for reform.

The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England
A man awakes in a clearing in what appears to be medieval England with no memory of who he is, where he came from, or why he is there. Chased by a group from his own time, his sole hope for survival lies in regaining his missing memories, making allies among the locals, and perhaps even trusting in their superstitious boasts.
His only help from the "real world" should have been a guidebook entitled The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England, except his copy exploded during transit. The few fragments he managed to save provide clues to his situation, but can he figure them out in time to survive?

Sink the Pink's Manifesto for Misfits
A rousing, colourful and joyous manifesto dedicated to misfits everywhere seeking empowerment, their tribe and themselves.
In a world plagued by boring binaries, restrictive labels and blinkered expectations, it is easy to feel out of step or like you don't belong. Sink the Pink's Manifesto for Misfits is dedicated to you: from finding your power to dreaming big, owning your space to chasing your joy, embracing your uniqueness to broadening your narrative, each cis-tem-crashing chapter will revolutionise how you see yourself, no matter where you are on your journey.
Discover within thinkpieces, reflective exercises and living testimony from a brave community of self-proclaimed eccentrics, freaks, geeks, rebels and oddballs - including Jade Thirlwall (Little Mix), Yungblud and Spice Girl Mel C - to remind yourself that you are not alone and weirdos win in the end.
Too fat, too femme, too weird, too much... lifelong outsider and inclusivity campaigner Glyn Fussell challenges such toxic notions, forces you to question the powers at play and confront internalised demons. With each of his witty commandments, you will learn why and how to reject the status quo tolive your life your way. He is the founder of Sink the Pink, the largest LGBTQ+ collective in the UK, whose events offer a portal to another world where anything is possible and everyone is welcome.
His perspective-shifting book is an antidote to confusion, fear and repression. Feel the love, find self-acceptance and let your freak flag fly.
Foreword by Lily Allen.
Tales from the Cafe: Before the Coffee Gets Cold
In a small back alley in Tokyo, there is a cafe which has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than one hundred years. But this coffee shop offers its customers a unique experience: the chance to travel back in time . . .
From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold comes Tales from the Cafe, a story of four new customers each of whom is hoping to take advantage of Cafe Funiculi Funicula's time-travelling offer.
Among some faces that will be familiar to readers of Toshikazu Kawaguchi's previous novel, we will be introduced to:
The man who goes back to see his best friend who died 22 years ago
The son who was unable to attend his own mother's funeral
The man who travelled to see the girl who he could not marry
The old detective who never gave his wife that gift . . .
This beautiful, simple tale tells the story of people who must face up to their past, in order to move on with their lives. Kawaguchi once again invites the reader to ask themselves: what would you change if you could travel back in time?

Exploited, The - Fuck The System (Clear/Red) 2LP
The Exploited je škótska punk rocková skupina z Edinburghu, ktorú v roku 1978 založili Stevie Ross a Terry Buchan, pričom Buchan čoskoro nahradil jeho brat Wattie Buchan. V marci 1981 podpísali zmluvu s Secret Records a v tom roku boli vydané ich debutové EP Army Life a debutový album Punks Not Dead. Kapela si v 80. rokoch udržala veľký kult medzi hardcore robotníckym punkovým a skinheadským publikom. Pôvodne pouličná punková kapela, The Exploited sa nakoniec po vydaní albumu Death Before Dishonor v roku 1987 stala crossover thrashovou kapelou.
Fuck the System je ôsmy štúdiový album, ktorý vyšiel 17. februára 2003 prostredníctvom Dream Catcher Records vo Veľkej Británii a Spitfire Records v USA. Nahrávanie prebiehalo v Chapel Studios v Lincolnshire v Anglicku.[4] O produkciu sa postarali Russ Russell a Simon Efemey.

Rolling Stones, The - Hackney Diamonds LP
"The Rolling Stones" je anglická rocková skupina založená v Londýne v roku 1962. Aktívna už viac ako šesť desaťročí, je jednou z najpopulárnejších a najtrvalejších kapiel rockovej éry. Začiatkom 60. rokov boli Rolling Stones priekopníkmi drsného, rytmicky riadeného zvuku, ktorý definoval hard rock. Ich prvú stabilnú zostavu tvorili spevák Mick Jagger, multiinštrumentalista Brian Jones, gitarista Keith Richards, basgitarista Bill Wyman a bubeník Charlie Watts. Počas ich formovania bol Jones hlavným lídrom: zostavil skupinu, pomenoval ju a riadil jej zvuk a imidž. Po tom, čo sa v roku 1963 stal manažérom skupiny Andrew Loog Oldham, povzbudil ich, aby napísali svoje vlastné piesne. Jagger a Richards sa stali primárnou tvorivou silou kapely, čím odcudzili Jonesa, ktorý si vyvinul drogovú závislosť, ktorá zasahovala do jeho schopnosti zmysluplne prispievať. "The Rolling Stones" majú odhadovaný predaj nahrávok na úrovni 200 miliónov, čo z nich robí jedného z najpredávanejších hudobných umelcov všetkých čias. Kapela získala tri ceny Grammy a cenu Grammy za celoživotné dielo. V roku 1989 ich uviedli do Rokenrolovej siene slávy a v roku 2004 do Britskej hudobnej siene slávy. Časopis Billboard a Rolling Stones zaradili skupinu medzi jednu z najväčších všetkých čias.
"The Rolling Stones" vydávajú po osemnástich rokoch nový album. Legendárna kapela The Rolling Stones nevydala nový album od roku 2005. To sa tento rok rozhodli zmeniť a vydávajú album Hackney Diamonds. Pravdepodobne najočakávanejšia nahrávka tohto roku vyjde už 20. októbra a vtedy Mick Jagger, Keith Richards a Ronnie Wood predstavia svetu 12 nových piesní, ktoré nahrávali po celom svete, vrátane preslávených štúdií v Los Angeles, Londýne, na Bahamách alebo v New Yorku.
