The Complete Language of Herbs
The Complete Language of Herbs is a comprehensive encyclopedia providing the meanings, powers, facts, and folklore for over 500 herbs and spices.
Along with a beautiful visual depiction, each entry provides the herb or spice's scientific and common names, characteristics, and historic meanings and powers from mythology, medieval legends, folklore, and flower poetry.
Did you know that allspice can be added to herbal mixtures to attract money or luck? Or that sprinkling arrowroot at the doors of your home will keep guests' negative energy from entering? Reaching the height of popularity during the Victorian era, floriographies-dictionaries of symbolic flower meanings-were an amusing pastime and art to subtly communicate unspoken emotions. To complement the success of The Complete Language of Flowers, author S. Theresa Dietz has scoured historic sources and compiled an equally beautiful compendium in The Complete Language of Herbs, revealing the secrets and powers of hundreds of common and forgotten herbs and spices from around the world.
Together with stunning full-color illustrations and two indexes, one for searching by common herb and spice name and the other organized by meaning, this beautiful reference is a must-have for gardeners, chefs, party planners, and food enthusiasts.
Elegantly designed and beautifully illustrated, the Complete Illustrated Encyclopedia series offers comprehensive, display-worthy references on a range of intriguing topics, including birthday astrology, dream interpretation, astrological self-care practices, techniques for harnessing the power of dreams, and the stories behind signs and symbols.

Čtyřhodinové tělo
Pokud znáte Ferrissův úspěšný a kontroverzní "Čtyřhodinový pracovní týden", je vám jasné, že si název jeho
nového bestselleru příliš nevymýšlí. Stěží najdete na trhu knížku, která tak pragmaticky, vtipně a otevřeně šlape po
uznávaných metodách hubnutí a vůbec tělesné práce na sobě. Ferriss přiznává, že většina z nás ve snaze zlepšit svou
kondičku a fyzický vzhled nemá takovou vůli, aby dokázala denodenně desítky minut sportovat a na dlouhé měsíce se
trápit odříkáním. Přichází s propracovaným tipy a triky, jak dosáhnout zlepšení za mnohem menšího (nikoli však zcela
nulového) úsilí. V knize se dočtete mj. o tom, jak ženě pomoci k silnému orgasmu, jak zlepšit spánek či spát méně a
být stále svěží a mnoho jiného. Ferriss vše zkouší na sobě, výsledky precizně měří a eviduje - a především se nestydí
se s námi o ně podělit. Zábavné a svým způsobem převratné.
Tento exkluzivní návod na použití těla vám prozradí:
Jak shodit 9 kg za 30 dnů (bez cvičení) na základě superjednoduché nízkosacharidové diety
Jak předejít nabírání tuku, když si dáváte do trumpety (Vánoce, svátky, víkendy)
Jak dosáhnout o 300 % vyššího úbytku tuku s pár pytlíky ledu
Jak Tim nabral 15,5 kg svalstva za 28 dnů, a to bez steroidů a při celkem 4 hodinách strávených za tu dobu v posilovně
Jak spát 2 hodiny denně a cítit se plně odpočatý
Jak zařídit 15-minutový ženský orgasmus
Jak ztrojnásobit testosteron, zdvojnásobit počet spermií a (doslova a do písmene) užít si sex jako pornohvězda
Jak se v běhu dostat z 5 na 50 kilometrů za 12 týdnů
Jak zvrátit „trvalé“ následky poranění
Jak za 6 měsíců přidat přes 68 kilogramů k vašim zdvihům
Jak si zaplatit dovolenou na pláži z jedné návštěvy nemocnice
Média o knize:
"„Kuchařka minimalistických metod rychlé transformace těla – praktický rychlokurz toho, jak objevit sebe sama.“–
Kevin Kelly, magazín Wired
O autorovi:
Timothy Ferriss(1977) se narodil v USA, absolvoval zde neurovědy a východoasijská studia, nyní však střídavě bydlí na
různých místech planety. Před vydáním Čtyřhodinového pracovního týdne byl Ferriss neznámou postavou. Když se
pak jeho kniha vyšplhala na první místo v žebříčku listů New York Times, Wall Street Journal i BusinessWeek, autora
katapultovala mezi americké celebrity.
Tim Ferriss nyní působí jako investor nových projektů, má podíl např. v Twitteru či Posterous, a přednáší na univerzitě v
Princetonu. On sám o sobě říká, že je řadový podnikatel a ultraflákač. Je držitelem světového rekordu v tangu (v počtu
otáček za minutu) a vítězem národního šampionátu v čínském kickboxu. Mluví šesti jazyky. V roce 2008 mu magazín
Wired udělil cenu „Největší selfpromotér všech dob“ a za jeho manipulaci s lidským tělem jej označil za „Supermana
ze Silicon Valley“. Časopis Fast Company jej zařadil mezi nejinovativnější obchodníky roku 2007.
Citovalo ho přes 100 mediálních zdrojů, včetně New York Times, The Economist, TIME, Forbes, Fortune, CNN a CBS,
a jeho blog označil časopis Inc. za jeden z „19 blogů, které si musíte okamžitě dát do záložek.“ Pokud ze sebe zrovna
nedělá pokusného králíka, hovoří Tim rád na fórech různých organizací, od Nike po Harvardskou školu veřejného zdraví.

Harlots, Whores & Hackabouts
The history of selling sex is a hidden one, its practitioners a 'damnable crew' pushed to the margins of history. Harlots, Whores & Hackabouts redresses the balance, revealing the history of sex for sale, from medieval back street to Wild West saloon, and from the brothel to state bedroom. This enthralling history is brought to life by Kate Lister's witty and authoritative text, and illuminated by a rich archive of photographs, artworks and objects.
Structured thematically in broadly chronological order, the book introduces a lively cast of complex and entertaining characters operating in an array of different periods and settings. The Mesopotamian harlot Shamhat was powerful and respected, able to civilize the wild man Enkidu through her charms. In medieval London Elizabeth Moryng serviced clergy under the guise of an embroidery business, though was eventually jailed for being a prolific procuress and bawd. In Renaissance Venice the courtesan Veronica Franco published her poetry, rubbed shoulders with royalty and founded a charity for other courtesans. In the hedonistic floating world of Edo, Japan, kabuki actresses and then geishas entertained and pleasured their patrons. Three men were hanged in 18th-century London for buggery after being found in the Molly House of Margaret Clap. And at the turn of the century, in New Orleans, Lulu White ran Mahogany Hall, a four-storey building that housed up to forty sex workers.
Lister's illuminating tales invite readers to look, listen and reconsider everything they thought they knew about the world's oldest profession.

Úgy egyél, hogy lefogyjál!
Napjainkban egyre nagyobb gondot jelent az elhízás. Habár egyre többen ajánlanak különböző módszereket a fogyókúrához, a kezdeti sikerek után sajnos gyorsan visszaszedjük nehezen ledobott kilóinkat. Vajon miért? Tényleg nincs megoldás?
A világszerte elismert olasz űrorvos, dr. Filippo Ongaro szerint az eddigi módszerek azért nem vezetnek eredményre, mert az emberi szervezet számára természetellenes az általánosan elfogadott tétel: együnk kevesebbet, mozogjunk többet!
Egy újabb diéta helyett olyan táplálkozási módszert mutat be, amelynek során bátran ehetünk. Szerinte nem az a lényeg, mennyit eszünk, hanem az, hogy mit. Meggyőzően és világosan fejti ki, mit jelent a minőségi táplálkozás és melyek az alapvető szabályai. Mindezek alapján praktikus életvezetési tanácsokkal szolgál, és ízletes recepteket ajánl, amelyekkel helyreállíthatjuk és fenntarthatjuk szervezetünk egészséges egyensúlyát, és koplalás nélkül megszabadulhatunk felesleges kilóinktól.
Ongaro egészséges evőkúrája egy életre szól, amellyel nem kell lemondanunk az élvezetekről.

The Antarctica of Love
They say you die three times.
The first time for me was when my heart stopped beating beneath his hands by the lake.
The second was when what was left of me was lowered into the ground in front of Ivan and Raksha at Bromma Church.
The third will be the last time my name is spoken on earth.
"A haunting portrait of the starkest meanings of love and family. Stridsberg's literary talent left me awestruck" Kate Reed Petty, author of True Story
"A disturbingly beautiful book" Expressen
Inni lives her life on the margins, but it is a life that is full and complex, filled with different shades of dark and light... Until she is brutally murdered one summer's day, on a lake shore at the heart of a distant, rain-washed forest.
On the surface, this is the story of the moment her life is violently extinguished - a moment that will never end, not ever - but it is also about the time before, and about the lives that carry on afterwards. It's about her children, her parents, her childhood of neglect, her volatile adolescence, and the chain of choices, tragedies and accidents that lead her to a life on the streets and take her into the wrong crowd, the wrong places and, finally, the wrong car with the wrong person.
Sara Stridsberg's new novel is about absolute vulnerability, brutality and isolation. At times disturbing, this is a devastating story of unexpected love, tenderness and light in the total darkness.

Paleolit étrend
Egészséges, egyszerű és finom: ez a három legfontosabb jellemzője a paleolit étrendnek, amely az ember természet adta táplálkozását igyekszik rekonstruálni.
Dr. Loren Cordain a neves táplálkozási szakértő állítja: ma is kőkorszakiak vagyunk, akik az űrkorszakban élnek! Étrendi igényeink legalábbis pontosan ugyanazok, mint egykori őseinknek. A szerző úgy véli, a paleolit étrend nem csupán a fogyni vágyóknak válhat hasznára, de korunk számos népbetegségére - a szív- és érrendszeri megbetegedésektől kezdve a diabéteszen át a rákig - jótékony hatással lehet. Cordain szerint ez a diéta valóban csodákra képes, pedig nem tartalmaz egyetlen varázsszert sem: csupán azokat az alapanyagokat, amelyekhez az ember az évmilliók során alkalmazkodott.
A könyvben több mint száz ízletes - és olykor egzotikus - étel receptjét is megtalálja az olvasó, amelyek a hathetes fogyókúrás programba illesztve fényesen bizonyítják: fenséges lakomák mellett is megőrizhetjük egészségünket!

Human Errors
We like to think of ourselves as highly evolved. But if we are evolution's greatest creation, why are we so badly designed? We have retinas that face backward, we must find vitamins and nutrients in our diets that other animals simply make for themselves and millions of us can't reproduce successfully without help from modern science. And that's just the beginning of the story. Biologist Nathan H. Lents takes us on an entertaining and illuminating tour of our four-billion-year-long evolutionary saga, and shows us how each of our flaws tells us a story about our species' history.

This Mortal Coil
Causes of death have changed irrevocably across time. In the course of a few centuries we have gone from a world where disease or violence were likely to strike anyone at any age, and where famine could be just one bad harvest away, to one where in many countries excess food is more of a problem than a lack of it. Why have the reasons we die changed so much? How is it that a century ago people died mainly from infectious disease, while today the leading causes of death in industrialised nations are heart disease and stroke? And what do changing causes of death reveal about how previous generations have lived?
University of Manchester Professor Andrew Doig provides an eye-opening portrait of death throughout history, looking at particular causes – from infectious disease to genetic disease, violence to diet – who they affected, and the people who made it possible to overcome them. Along the way we hear about the long and torturous story of the discovery of vitamin C and its role in preventing scurvy; the Irish immigrant who opened the first washhouse for the poor of Liverpool, and in so doing educated the public on the importance of cleanliness in combating disease; and the Church of England curate who, finding his new church equipped with a telephone, started the Samaritans to assist those in emotional distress.
This Mortal Coil is a thrilling story of growing medical knowledge and social organisation, of achievement and, looking to the future, of promise.

Edible Economics
Economic thinking - about climate change, immigration, austerity, automation and much more - in its most digestible form
For decades, a single free market philosophy has dominated global economics. But this is bland and unhealthy - like British food in the 1980s, when bestselling author and Cambridge economist Ha-Joon Chang first arrived in the UK from South Korea. Just as eating a wide range of cuisines contributes to a balanced diet, so too is it essential we listen to a variety of economic perspectives.
In Edible Economics, Chang makes challenging economic ideas more palatable by plating them alongside anecdotes about food from around the world. Beginning each chapter with a menu, Chang uses the stories behind key ingredients - where they come from, how they are cooked and consumed, what they mean to different cultures - to explore economic theory. For Chang, strawberries are delicious with cream, but they also prophesise a jobless future; chocolate is a wonderful pudding, but more exciting are the insights it offers into post-industrial knowledge economies. Explaining everything from the hidden cost of care work to the misleading language of the free market as he cooks dishes like anchovy and egg toast, Gambas al Ajillo and Korean dotori mook, Ha-Joon Chang serves up an easy-to-digest feast of bold ideas.
Myth-busting, witty and thought-provoking, Edible Economics shows that getting to grips with the economy is like learning a recipe: if we understand it, we can change it - and, with it, the world.
