Born to run - Zrozeni k běhu
Autor knihy se jako miliony jiných amatérských běžců nejméně jednou ročně vážně zranil. Po cyklech bolestí, injekcí a střídání nejmodernějších běžeckých bot chtěl na doporučení lékařů s běháním skoncovat. Místo toho se však vydal do rozpálených kaňonů v Mexiku, kde žijí Tarahumarové – nejtajemnější, nejzdravější a nejšťastnější běžci na planetě. Běhání v extrémních podmínkách jen v sandálech je pro ně stejně přirozené a snadné jako dýchání. Čtivý příběh o běžcích na stokilometrové trati autor doplňuje o nejnovější vědecké poznatky a současně nám přibližuje portréty osobností, které se vydávají na trasy ultramaratonů, aby odhalili tajemství šťastného života. Zrozeni k běhu změní život každému čtenáři!

Slow - A lassúság dicsérete
Carl Honoré könyvét mindazoknak ajánljuk, akik sebességfüggősségben és időhiányban szenvednek, akik túlhajszoltnak, vagy kontroll nélkülinek érzik az életüket. Kihagyhatatlan olvasmány azoknak, akik érdeklődnek a slow mozgalom és filozófia iránt, és el szeretnék valahol kezdeni az ismerkedést a témával, miközben a saját életükön is lassítanának.
Egy remek "első" slow könyv, ami rögtön részleteiben teszi átláthatóvá a mozgalom 80-as évek végi elindulását és értékeit, és az azóta tartó három évtizedes fejlődését. Mindezt úgy, hogy a tények nem fárasztják le az olvasót: az újságíróként dolgozó Carl Honoré ugyanis a hitelesség megtartása mellett kitűnően ért a történetmeséléshez. Egy újságírói precizitással megírt könyv, ami példáival az amúgy a slow témájától idegenkedő férfiaknak is egyértelművé teszi, hogy a lassítás filozófiájának helye van mindannyiunk életében.
A fejezeteket bevezető, az elmúlt évszázadok gondolkodóitól kölcsönvett idézetek rámutatnak a téma örökérvényűségére: bármilyen korról is legyen szó, a gyors és lassú kérdése mindig is foglalkoztatta az emberiséget. Ám az ipari forradalom óta tartó, gépekhez igazított léptékű fejlődés hatására eljutottunk mára oda, hogy mindennél időszerűbb a kérdés: az innovációk hatására felszabadult időnkkel mihez kezdünk? Tovább gyorsítunk az életünkön, és mi szolgáljuk ki a rendszert, vagy bizonyos esetekben ragaszkodva az emberi tempóhoz megpróbálunk kiegyensúlyozottan, és ami még fontosabb, fenntarthatóan létezni?
A könyvben olvasható történetek inspirációt és segítséget adnak mindehhez.

The Slow Road to Tehran
One woman, one bike and one richly entertaining, perception-altering journey of discovery.
In 2015, as the Syrian War raged and the refugee crisis reached its peak, Rebecca Lowe set off on her bicycle across the Middle East. Driven by a desire to learn more about this troubled region and its relationship with the West, Lowe's 11,000-kilometre journey took her through Europe to Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Sudan, the Gulf and finally to Iran.
It was an odyssey through landscapes and history that captured her heart, but also a deeply challenging cycle across mountains, deserts and repressive police states that nearly defeated her. Plagued by punctures and battling temperatures ranging from -6 to 48C, Lowe was rescued frequently by farmers and refugees, villagers and urbanites alike, and relied almost entirely on the kindness and hospitality of locals to complete this living portrait of the modern Middle East.
This is her evocative, deeply researched and often very funny account of her travels - and the people, politics and culture she encountered

Fast Forward
Iconic drummer Stephen Morris presses play once more to the tune of the long-awaited second volume of memoirs . . .
Poised on the brink of success, the dizzying heights of the unknown lying ahead, Ian Curtis had taken his own life. Grieving yet determined, Stephen Morris emerged from the wreckage of Joy Division to the dawn of something new: a new band, a new tour, a new beginning. Under the name New Order, Morris and his bandmates set their sights on America, only to encounter new disasters. Yet, in true northern spirit, not even this sudden tragedy could dissuade them from following their haphazard path to greatness.
Following the highs and lows of New Order, Fast Forward tracks the changing rhythm of Morris's life and the music that shaped it. From 'music differences' to the ever-growing Joy Division legacy, music is the constant beat through the verses of Fast Forward as Morris's personal and professional life grew increasingly intertwined. This came to a head when his girlfriend was invited to join the band. Tentatively stepping into their testosterone-filled world, Gillian was the right person at the right time for New Order. And for Morris. What began as just a trial period in the band spun into a whirlwind of new projects and experiences, including The Other Two - a project born during one of New Order's (many) hiatuses.
Blending entertaining anecdote with profound reflection, Fast Forward strips back a lifetime of fame and fortune to tell, with raw honesty, how New Order threatened to implode time after time. And yet, despite everything, the legacy of their music continued to hold them together.
