Stop being a servant of the life you're living and become a creator of the world you want. Electrifying lessons in power, influence and persuasion to equalise women in an unequal world.
Why do so many women feel they're too much yet not enough? How can you feel 'good and mad' yet reluctant to speak up in a meeting or difficult conversation? What causes women to freeze at critical moments?
Kasia Urbaniak spent 17 years studying to become a Taoist nun. To foot the bill for her studies, she worked as a high-paid (and extremely successful) dominatrix in dungeons around New York City. What she learned in these two wildly different settings has turned into her life's work.
UNBOUND brings Urbaniak's unique teachings for women on speaking power, persuading others and navigating conflict to a mainstream audience for the first time. Part polemic, part practical, it opens women's eyes to why they frequently find it so difficult - personally, professionally and socially - to raise their voices, why they freeze in challenging circumstances and what they can do to change this. Too often women find themselves in the role of 'sub' when they need to be more 'dom' - in short they are paralysed by their Good Girl Syndrome and a deep-seated need to please everyone and anyone except themselves.
UNBOUND offers precise, practical instruction in how to stand in your power, find your voice and use it well. Part manual, part manifesto, it will help you cut through layers of self-censoring and self-doubt to go after what you truly want, and live your wildest, best and most satisfying life.

Quality Check! This is really a Good Thing
This is what this book brings you: You support certified climate protection projects, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because in our often hectic world there is virtually infinite choice. But the mass of choices overwhelms many people. We hardly know which path leads to the desired result and really brings something. Often, priorities lack focus or crystal-clear goals. As a result, we often lose time unnecessarily, or necessary decision-making processes are repeatedly postponed. By the way, this also applies to interpersonal relationships. Often we do not dare to clearly prioritize things that are important to us and to communicate this accordingly with a clear no, because social fears or feelings of guilt are associated with this. Structured processes, strategies and checklists help here, showing what is really important in one's own life and what one can confidently do without. This book helps to achieve success. Good luck and have fun reading. We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance.

Win Courage, No Anger
This is what this book brings you: You support certified climate protection projects, quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press comments in the book preview) as well as advice that has been tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because many people feel great anger in this day and age, e.g. at seemingly adverse circumstances, competitors, bosses and colleagues who obstruct one's own career or even the great world conspiracy. The causes of problems often lie in ourselves, in our own fears and thought patterns. If you recognize this - mindfulness exercises or meditation can help here - and are prepared to work on something inwardly, to pursue goals continuously and to get up and continue even when things go wrong, you will achieve long-term, sustainable success here. However, tackling challenges and implementing the corresponding development opportunities requires courage and the serenity to develop great visions and to follow them unflinchingly but relaxed and also to achieve them. This book shows how this balancing act can be achieved. Good luck and have fun reading.

The Nameless Castle
To a man who has earned such titles as "The Shakespeare of Hungary" and "The Glory of Hungarian Literature"; who published in fifty years three hundred and fifty novels, dramas, and miscellaneous works, not to mention innumerable articles for the press that owes its freedom chiefly to him, it seems incredible that there was ever a time of indecision as to what career he was best fitted to follow. The idle life of the nobility into which Maurus Jókay was born in 1825 had no attractions for a strongly intellectual boy, fired with zeal and energy that carried him easily to the head of each class in school and college; nor did he feel any attraction for the prosaic practice of law, his father's profession, to which Austria's despotism drove many a nobleman in those wretched days for Hungary. It was Pétofi, the poet, who was his dearest friend during the student-life at Pápa; idealism ever attracted him, and, by natural gravitation toward the finest minds, he chose the friendship of young men who quickly rose into eminence during the days of revolution and invasion that tried men's souls.

Když je nedaleko hradu Lichnice nalezeno zmrzačené tělo českého a římského krále Karla IV., na slezského lékaře Siegfrieda připadá nelehký úkol pokusit se panovníka zachránit. A zároveň přežít v nehostinném prosředí Železných hor, kde zjišťuje, že nemůže věřit ani vlastním přátelům, natožpak příslušníkům intrikami prolezlého panovníkova dvora.
Zlomený král je napínavá historická detektivka z českého středověku a druhý díl volné trilogie o lékaři Siegfriedovi a židovské dívce Rivce.

Jarwin and Cuffy
Excerpt: "In all the wide expanse of ocean that surrounded that island, there was nothing visible save one small, solitary speck on the far-off horizon. It might have been mistaken for a seagull, but it was in reality a raft—a mass of spars and planks rudely bound together with ropes. A boat’s mast rose from the centre of it, on which hung a rag of sail, and a small red flag drooped motionless from its summit. There were a few casks on the highest part of the raft, but no living soul was visible. Nevertheless, it was not without tenants. In a hollow between two of the spars, under the shadow of one of the casks, lay the form of a man. The canvas trousers, cotton shirt, blue jacket, and open necktie, bespoke him a sailor, but it seemed as though there were nothing left save the dead body of the unfortunate tar, so pale and thin and ghastly were his features. A terrier dog lay beside him, so shrunken that it looked like a mere scrap of door-matting. Both man and dog were apparently dead, but they were not so in reality, for, after lying about an hour quite motionless, the man slowly opened his eyes.Ah, reader, it would have touched your heart to have seen those eyes! They were so deep set, as if in dark caverns, and so unnaturally large. They gazed round in a vacant way for a few moments, until they fell on the dog. Then a gleam of fire shot through them, and their owner raised his large, gaunt, wasted frame on one elbow, while he gazed with a look of eagerness, which was perfectly awful, at his dumb companion.“Not dead yet!” he said, drawing a long sigh."
