Paul McCartney: The Stories Behind 50 Classic Songs, 1970-2020
Paul McCartney's songwriting output as a member of the Beatles, mainly with his co-writer John Lennon, has been exhaustively documented over the years. Now, taking 50 key songs from his five-decade career since the break-up of the Fab Four, Paul McCartney: The Stories Behind 50 Classic Songs takes an in-depth look at the post-Sixties work of one of popular music's most versatile and prolific composers and performers.
Paul McCartney has been a genuine pop idol, a cutting-edge experimenter, and in later years recognized as an international musical treasure. The 50 selections from his vast songwriting catalogue highlighted in Paul McCartney: The Stories Behind 50 Classic Songs mark half a century of musical creativity by a true icon of popular music.
Each song includes full session details, personnel lists and chart data and is described in detail, from original inspiration to the final release. Quotes from session musicians and studio personnel - and star guests such as Stevie Wonder, Elvis Costello and Kanye West - bring the making of every song to life, alongside a wealth of related photographs in and out of the studio.

A magányos farkas boldogsága
Miután kilép egy hosszú kapcsolatból, a középkorú Fausto a gyerekkorában bejárt ösvények között húzza meg magát. Fontana Freddában, a magashegyi faluban találkozik Babette-tel, aki szintén Milánóból szökött ide sok évvel korábban, és aki odaveszi szakácsnak az éttermébe, hogy főzzön a síelőknek és a pályamunkásoknak. A huszas évei végén járó Silvia is itt szolgál fel, ő még nem tudja, hogy számára a hegyek csupán egy télre szóló menedéket jelentenek-e, vagy olyan helyet, ahol megtalálhatja önmagát. Abban sem biztos, készen áll-e rá, hogy összekösse életét Faustóval, a hegyek örök szerelmesével.
Paolo Cognetti új regényében feltárul a kérészéletű emberi sorsok és a felettük örökké őrt álló havas csúcsok sokféle viszonya -- a Nyolc hegyben már megismert olasz magashegyi világ ismét egyszerre színhelye és főszereplője a líraian sűrű, mégis áttetszően könnyed szövegnek.
A borostyánszoba
Rachel Cutler elismert bírónő, jó feleség és gyermekeit féltő anya. Egy nap édesapja rejtélyes körülmények között életét veszti, és a családi hagyatékban Rachel egy titokzatos névre bukkant: borostyánszoba. Rachel az igazság nyomában Németországba utazik, és mit sem sejtve belesétál a kémek, műkincstolvajok és bérgyilkosok csapdájába, amely mögött egy kegyelmet nem ismerő hatalom áll, ami világuralomra tör.
A drágakövekből megalkotott borostyánszoba az egyik legnagyszerűbb műalkotás, amit ember valaha készített. A nácik 1941-ben szerezték meg a műkincset, de amikor a Szövetségesek elkezdték a bombázásokat, a borostyánszobának nyoma veszett, és azóta sem látta senki. Most azonban két férfi brutális hajszát indít a rejtélyes kincs megszerzéséért...

What About Men?
A frank, funny and galvanising exploration of masculinity, and a manifesto for male allyship, from million-copy bestseller and feminist powerhouse Caitlin Moran.
As any feminist who talks about the problems of girls and women will know, the first question you will ever be asked is 'But what about MEN?' After eleven years of writing bestsellers about women and dismissing this question, having been very sure that the concerns of feminism and men are very different things, Caitlin Moran realised that this wasn't quite right, and that the problems of feminism are also the problems of, yes, men.
So, what about men? Why do they only go to the doctor if their wife or girlfriend makes them? Why do they never discuss their penises with each other - but make endless jokes about their balls? What is porn doing for young men? Is their fondness for super-skinny jeans leading to an epidemic of bad mental health? Are men allowed to be sad? Are men allowed to lose? Have Men's Rights Activists confused 'power' with 'empowerment'? And is Jordan B Peterson just your mum - but with some mad theory about a lobster?
In this book, Caitlin intends to answer all this and more - because if men haven't yet answered the question 'What About Men?', it's going to be down to a busy woman to do it.

The Great Offshore Grounds
On the day of their estranged father's wedding, half-sisters Cheyenne and Livy set off to claim their inheritance. It's been years since the two have seen each other - Cheyenne is newly back in Seattle after a failed marriage, Livy works refinishing boats - but the promise of a shot at financial security brings the two together to claim what's theirs.
Except: instead of money, their father gives them information - a name - that reveals a stunning family secret. In the face of their new reality, the sisters each set out on journeys that will test their faith in each other, as well as their definitions of freedom.
Moving from Seattle's underground to the docks of the Far North, from the hideaways of the southern swamps to the storied reaches of the Great Offshore Grounds, this is an epic tale told with boundless verve, linguistic vitality and undeniable tenderness - a book that fearlessly reimagines what the 'great American novel' can do.

Echo & The Bunnymen - Crocodyles LP
KDO: Echo & the Bunnymen je britská post-punková hudební skupina založená v roce 1978 v Liverpoolu. Původní složení bylo Ian McCulloch, kytarista Will Sergeant a baskytarista Les Pattinson. Krátce poté se ke skupině přidal bubeník Pete de Freitas a v této sestavě nahráli své první album nazvané Crocodiles. McCulloch ze skupiny odešel v roce 1988 a jeho místa se ujal Noel Burke. Bubeník Freitas zemřel v roce 1989 a jako náhrada za něj přišel Damon Reece. Určitou dobu ve skupině působil ještě klávesista Jake Brockman. Skupina se rozpadla v roce 1993, ale v roce 1996 ji McCulloch, Sergeant a Pattinson obnovili. Poslední jmenovaný krátce nato odešel a od té doby skupina působí coby duo.
CO: V rámci reediční kampaně jsou nově k dispozici na vinylu první čtyři alba skupiny Echo & the Bunnymen. Debutová deska Crocodiles s hity Pictures On My Wall a Rescue je dodnes považována za jednu z nejlepších nahrávek roku 1980.

Voted the EMBRACING CHANGE BOOK OF THE YEAR at the BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS
When the winds of change blow, some build a wall and others build a windmill
In a business environment where change is the only constant, the stark reality is that it has never been harder to see what's happening around us, interpret information efficiently or develop successful strategies. This is down to both the increasing speed of change and the prevalent mindset about change, where change is seen as the enemy.
Powered by Change presents a radical new methodology for using change as a fuelling mechanism to generate outstanding business success: the Windmill Theory.
Power your business
The Windmill Theory enables leaders and organisations to think and act in a way that capitalises on a constantly changing environment. Constructed of four blades working in perpetual harmony with one another, it creates an empowered business that turns the winds of change into business success.
Filled with examples and stories from around the world, from global corporates to start-up ventures, Powered by Change delivers some astonishing insights and clear, actionable steps to achieve the ultimate competitive advantage.

Passing
Clare Kendry has severed all ties to her past. Elegant, fair-skinned and ambitious, she is married to a white man who is unaware of her African-American heritage. When she renews her acquaintance with her childhood friend Irene, who has not hidden her origins, both women are forced to reassess their marriages, the lies they have told - and to confront the secret fears they have buried within themselves. Nella Larsen's intense, taut and psychologically nuanced portrayal of lives and identities dangerously colliding established her as a leading writer of America's Harlem Renaissance.

Intrinsic
We are in a motivational mess today.
Many of us feel like we are going through the motions - as workers, managers, spouses and partners, parents and citizens. We feel jaded and unhappy with the organizations we are part of, whether that's the company we work for or our child's school. And some of us feel deeply alienated from the wider societies in which we live, particularly in the face of vast social problems - from climate change to our increasingly 'winner takes all' world.
But life doesn't need to be this way. Motivation thinking holds the key to this promise. Intrinsic uses motivation thinking not just to accurately diagnose these problems, but to find solutions. As a leading expert on motivation, Sharath Jeevan helps us see how we can achieve more lasting fulfilment and success in our work, careers, relationships, parenting, and as citizens.
Jeevan applies the concepts of Purpose (how what we do helps others), Autonomy (our ability to positively change things) and Mastery (our sense of continually getting better) to help us see our motivation in these key life areas in a radically new light.
Jeevan takes us on a journey around the world to find practical and inspirational answers to solving our motivational crisis, harnessing ground-breaking research, from psychology and economics to philosophy and behavioural science.
Intrinsic shows us how we can fall back in love with our lives, and create the lives we want.
