The Man of Feeling
A book I prize next to the Bible' Robert BurnsMackenzie's hugely popular novel of 1771 is the foremost work of the sentimental movement, in which sentiment and sensibility were allied with true virtue, and sensitivity is the mark of the man of feeling. The hero, Harley, is followed in a series of episodes demonstrating his benevolence in anuncaring world: he assists the down-trodden, loses his love, and fails to achieve worldly success. The novel asks a series of vital questions: what morality is possible in a complex commercial world? Does trying to maintain it make you a saint or a fool? Is sentiment merely a luxury for theleisured classes? This edition reprints Brian Vickers's authoritative text, with a new introduction that discusses the novel in the context of the Scottish Enlightenment and European sentimentalism.

The Lady from Zagreb
In 1942, there are many worse places to be than Zurich, and detective Bernie Gunther has seen his fair share of them. So when a superior asks him to track down a glamorous German actress believed to be hiding in Zurich, he takes the job. Not that he has much choice: the superior is Goebbels himself. Soon Bernie finds himself involved in something much more sinister. The actress, it emerges, is the daughter of a fanatical Croatian fascist, the sadistic commandant of a notorious concentration camp. And the Swiss police have a cold case that they want Bernie to take a look at: one that seems to have connections to some powerful people back in the Reich. The Lady from Zagreb is another inimitable Bernie Gunther investigation from Philip Kerr: a rich, dark and fast-paced adventure of a nightmarish time and a lonely, indomitable hero.

A lélek ereje - Útmutató minden napra
"Ami erő van bennem, az azokból a reggeli, csendes percekből ered, amelyekkel a napot kezdem. Azokból, amikor egyedül vagyok, és letérdelek. Azokból, amikor időt szakítok Istenre."
Bear Grylls a világ egyik leghíresebb természetjárója. Többször elment már az emberi erő legvégső határáig: kiállta a Brit Különleges Erők 21. SAS-ezredének hírhedt felvételi vizsgasorozatát, és ő lett a legfiatalabb hegymászó, aki feljutott az Everestre. De ez csak az egyik fele történetének. Tv-sorozataiból a magyar nézők is megismerhették a lehetetlent nem ismerő kalandort, aki most megosztja a nyilvánossággal, mi áll legvakmerőbb tettei hátterében. Az ejtőernyős ugrás során elszenvedett rettentő balesetétől kezdve a Grönland partjainál majdnem halálos tragédiával végződött hajós kalandjáig minden veszélyes vállalkozása során védte valami: a Krisztusba vetett hit.
Ebben a nyílt, merész és őszinte könyvben Bear többek között a barátság, a kudarc, a bátorság és a kockázat témakörét járja körül: rövid olvasni- és gondolkodnivalókat kínál, hogy segítsenek napjainkat békében, céltudatosan és hitben megerősödve tölteni. Ehhez elég naponta néhány percet szánni a Biblia tanításaira. A különösen fontos igék összeválogatása mellett a szerző megosztja velünk üzenetükhöz kapcsolódó gondolatait is. Hogy mindezt még színesebbé tegye, nemcsak saját élete fordulatos eseményeivel illusztrálja őket, de számos ismert kortárs vagy történelmi személy igaz történetét is feleleveníti.
Bear Grylls nem prédikál és nem térít, arra vezet rá, hogy a több ezer éves tanítások tökéletesen eleven, hasznos útmutatók a ma emberének is. Bear egyszerű, közvetlen, modern nyelven szól olvasójához, és bebizonyítja, hogy a mai napig nem írtak hitelesebb életvezetési tanácsadót, mint a Biblia. A tanítások az év minden napjára adnak egy csepp erőt, és a könyv végére érve az olvasó azt tapasztalja: e cseppek tengerré növekedtek benne.
BEAR GRYLLS fiatalkorában harcművészeteket tanult, majd a Brit Különleges Erők kötelékében fejlesztette mesterfokra azokat a túlélési technikákat, amelyek az egész világon ismertté tették. Televíziós túlélőműsorait, extrém kalandsorozatait világszerte sok millióan nézték, emellett számos kötet szerzője, köztük a Magyarországon is bestsellerré vált Tűzön-vízen át! című könyvé.
Jelmondata egyszerű: bátorság és szeretet... és ne add fel soha!

Rude
Hilarious and heart-breaking at the same time, Nimko has blown apart all taboos, blown apart the echo chamber and included all women in the feminist conversation. Essential reading for everyone' - Scarlett Curtis, author of Feminists Don't Wear Pink
14 countries, 42 women, each with a story no one has heard before.
What do you do when you're living on the streets and on your period? What does it feel like to have a poo after you've given birth? How do we learn to love our bodies again after they've been abused? And, how do you know if you've ever really orgasmed? We all have questions about our bodies but often women's voices are silenced for being impolite or improper
What We're Told Not To Talk About (But We're Going To Anyway) is an important, taboo-breaking book that gives voice to the experiences of women from all walks of life, whose stories might not ordinarily be heard. Alongside Nimko's story of living with FGM, rebuilding her relationship with her own body and being a woman her own way, these are the true stories of real women who are sharing the experiences they've always been told should be secret and shameful.
The book is a call to arms for all women to reclaim the narrative around their bodies and to refuse to bow to the taboos which keep us silent. There is no such thing as oversharing.
'A beautiful book with such a wide range of uplifting but often heart-breaking stories. Made us cry and think in equal measure' - Pandora Sykes, co-host of The High Low
'Nimko's book is going to shift the conversation around women's bodies. Our bodies, and everything they do, make us who we are' - Amika George, founder of Free Periods Campaign.
'Nimko says it how it is. There is no subject too taboo for her to tackle. We should all be talking about our vaginas and she is leading the way' - Bryony Gordon, author of Mad Girl
'Nimko Ali is my hero! She's an anti-FGM activist and is responsible for changing laws across the globe! She is also hilarious and wonderful' - Zoe Sugg
'Nimko Ali is heroine for our time, she destroys the notion of things being too rude to discuss' - Caitlin Moran, author of How to Be a Woman
