The Last Days of John Lennon
The greatest true-crime story in music history.
A GLOBAL SUPERSTAR
In the summer of 1980, ten years after the break-up of the Beatles, John Lennon signed with a new label, ready to record new music for the first time in years. Everyone was awestruck when Lennon dashed off '(Just Like) Starting Over'. Lennon was back in peak form, with his best songwriting since 'Imagine'.
A DANGEROUSLY OBSESSED FAN
In the years after Lennon left the Beatles, becoming a solo artist and making a life with Yoko Ono in New York City, Mark David Chapman had become fixated on murdering his former hero. He was convinced that Lennon had squandered his talent and betrayed his fans. In December 1980, Chapman boarded a flight from Hawaii to New York with a handgun stowed in his luggage. He was never going home again.
A MURDER THAT STUNNED THE WORLD
Enriched by exclusive interviews with Lennon's friends and associates, including Paul McCartney, The Last Days of John Lennon is a true-crime drama about two men who changed history. One whose indelible songs enliven our world to this day, and the other who ended the music with five pulls of a trigger.

In the Key of Nira Ghani
A Guyanese girl must find the balance between her parents' "old world" expectations and traditions while pursuing her dream of being a great trumpeter in this contemporary, coming-of-age story.
Nira Ghani has always dreamed of becoming a musician. Her Guyanese parents, however, have big plans for her to become a scientist or doctor. Nira's grandmother and her best friend, Emily, are the only people who seem to truly understand her desire to establish an identity outside of the one imposed on Nira by her parents. When auditions for jazz band are announced, Nira realizes it's now or never to convince her parents that she deserves a chance to pursue her passion.
As if fighting with her parents weren't bad enough, Nira finds herself navigating a new friendship dynamic when her crush, Noah, and notorious mean-girl, McKenzie "Mac," take a sudden interest in her and Emily, inserting themselves into the fold. So, too, does Nira's much cooler (and very competitive) cousin Farah. Is she trying to wiggle her way into the new group to get closer to Noah? Is McKenzie trying to steal Emily's attention away from her? As Farah and Noah grow closer and Emily begins to pull away, Nira's trusted trumpet "George" remains her constant, offering her an escape from family and school drama.
But it isn't until Nira takes a step back that she realizes she's not the only one struggling to find her place in the world. As painful truths about her family are revealed, Nira learns to accept people for who they are and to open herself in ways she never thought possible.
A relatable and timely contemporary, coming-of age story, In the Key of Nira Ghani explores the social and cultural struggles of a teen in an immigrant household.

Umenie v skratke: Impresionizmus
Dnes si už sotvakto vie predstaviť, aké provokatívne boli impresionistické plátna, keď ich v roku 1874 skupinka odvážnych umelcov prvýkrát predstavila verejnosti. Zástancovia nového štýlu zavrhli všetky pravidlá umenia zaužívané v tom čase vo Francúzsku. Po stopäťdesiatich rokoch sa impresionizmus považuje za najprístupnejší a najobľúbenejší maliarsky štýl.
Impresionisti maľovali priamo v prírode a s použitím žiarivých farieb a rýchlych ťahov štetca zachytávali prchavé svetelné efekty a dojmy. Ralph Skea ukazuje, ako impresionistickí maliari urobili námetom svojich diel výjavy z každodenného života, a sleduje dejiny hnutia od jeho vzniku vo Francúzsku až po jeho rozšírenie v Amerike a Austrálii. Publikácia vychádza v edícii Umenie v skratke a voľne nadväzuje na diela Ženy umelkyne, Moderné umenie, Surrealizmus.

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 tried and tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to AddOn. Because the ideal of perfection rules our working world as well as society and especially the Internet constantly provides us with images of successful, ambitious and happy people. But this often leads to pressure, stress, problems and overload, even anxiety and depression. The unfortunate result: false ambition has many people too firmly in its grip: they want too much and too quickly the wrong thing, but at the same time they lack the ability to develop their own potential. Often it would be enough to take a step back and change ingrained behavior patterns, but often enough aggression, fears and other negative emotions block the way. The good news is that self-efficacy can make many things easier for us than we think. For example, by setting priorities when making decisions, detaching ourselves from our own exaggerated demands for perfection, becoming aware of blockages such as procrastination traps, avoiding insecurity through unproductive brooding, learning to deal with loss of control in a relaxed manner, and thus gaining the ability to react more flexibly even to unforeseen events. This book shows you how. 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.
