Human Playground: Why We Play
Why do we play games? That is the question Belgian photographer Hannelore Vandenbussche decided to explore, travelling to numerous countries to roam the world of sports, passion, athletic competition, transition, and emancipation. The athletes she portrays keep old traditions alive or carve out new territory, perform rituals, and celebrate with boisterous parties centred around their games.
Meet Buzkashi players astride their horses in Central Asia, Donga stick fighters in Ethiopia, Tarahumara runners in Mexico, big wave surfers in Nazare, and many other athletes in these unusual sports. These unique photographs capture athletes from both indigenous cultures in remote parts of the globe and from familiar, Western cultures. They poignantly convey how old traditions are kept alive and new ones are carved out, how rites of passage, ritual, and celebration are all part of the culture of play.
Human Playground showcases a hugely diverse range of sports from places as far-flung as Mongolia and Madagascar, from jockeys in Dubai to land divers in Vanuatu. This extraordinary book of photographs is dedicated to a subject that is being presented in an entirely new way.
Cesta pouští
Přestože je období druhé světové války nesmazatelně zatíženo katastrofou šoa, podařilo se neprávem opomíjenému česko-izraelskému spisovateli Otu B. Krausovi (1921 Praha – 2000 Netanja) napsat román, v němž tyto události pro hlavního hrdinu, dospívajícího židovského mladíka Štěpána, představují spíše jen historický kontext. Hrůzy holokaustu, jimiž si Kraus i jeho pozdější žena Dita, „osvětimská knihovnice“, prošli, zůstávají jen jako stín dokreslující tíživou atmosféru doby, v níž Štěpán dospívá. Krausův román je citlivou a sugestivní výpovědí o mladém muži, jehož hledání prvních lásek, vlastní české židovské identity, ale i vztahu k práci, rodičům a určujícím ideologiím 20. století (marxismus, sionismus) je ortenovsky bolestné i krásné zároveň. Štěpán je pro svůj původ vyloučen z gymnázia, posléze před okupací prchne do sovětského Ruska, kde ovšem rychle ze sociálně utopických snů i nepřekročitelné bariéry mezi domácím a cizím vystřízliví. Vrací se do protektorátu, kde jej mezitím postupující represe přivedou k práci na statku v severních Čechách. Zemědělství se objevuje jako motiv téměř ruralisticko-sionistický (Palestina), líčení je ovšem velmi atraktivní a tajemné: na statku sehrávají hlavní roli Němci i čarodějnice – obraz erotického napětí, které si ničím nezadá s žítkovskými bohyněmi, jež český čtenář objeví až několik desetiletí po napsání Cesty pouští . Celý románmetafora ve své kombinaci důvěrného líčení „velkých dějin“ a „individuálních osudů“ připomene vrcholná díla Ferdinanda Peroutky (Oblak a valčík ) či Egona Hostovského, po jejichž bok se v překladu z anglického originálu suverénně řadí.

The Good Enough Job
The Good Enough Job reminds us that the biggest goal of all is to live a life we are happy with, and in which work is but one of the multitude of facets that make us who we are. An antidote to the toxic #hustle movement convincing us all we need to find fulfilment in the office, it denounces the dangers of burnout linked to those of us who cannot answer the question: beyond work, what's left?
Conversations of burnout have bubbled to the top of the cultural zeitgeist as the line between work and not-work continues to blur. Burnout and workaholism are symptoms of a deeper root cause: a lack of separation between who we are and what we do. This book is not a credo against looking to work for fulfilment, nor is it in favour of treating work as a necessary evil. It is a guide to developing a healthier relationship to work through the stories of people who have successfully done so. These are stories that invite us to re-evaluate what makes us happy, and how we can work to live, rather than the other way round.
Rome
Matthew Rice is a long-time observer and illustrator of cities, buildings and all those who inhabit them, with an uncanny ability to express the energy of a place through a few lines of ink and splashes of paint. In the first book in this new sketchbook series, he explored the glittering canals of Venice: now he turns his attention to Rome, the Eternal City.
Rome is a place where the ancient, the baroque and the modern clash, and this tension runs through Matthew's paintings. In this guide, he makes sly juxtapositions of people and animals against the backdrop of the city's architectural and artistic wonders, its ruins and its ristoranti. Matthew's ability to notice detail, his sense of light and dark, his expert's knowledge of architecture and how it creates an atmosphere allows him to present Rome, in these pages, in its all its living, breathing splendour.
Following the same landscape format as Matthew's real-life sketchbooks, Rome: A Sketchbook will combine enchanting watercolour illustrations with an informed, personal and witty text, and promises to delight all visitors to Rome, armchair or actual.
That Little Voice In Your Head
That Little Voice in Your Head is the practical guide to retraining your brain for optimal joy by Mo Gawdat, the internationally bestselling author of Solve for Happy. Mo reveals how by beating negative self-talk, we can change our thought processes, turning our greed into generosity, our apathy into compassion and investing in our own happiness.
To fix a machine, first you need to find out what's wrong with it. To fix unhappiness, you need to find out what causes it.
This book provides readers with exercises to help reshape their mental processes. Drawing on his expertise in programming and his knowledge of neuroscience, Mo explains how - despite their incredible complexity - our brains behave in ways that are largely predictable. From these insights, he delivers this user manual for happiness.
Inspired by the life of his late son, Ali, Mo Gawdat has set out to share a model for happiness based on generosity and empathy towards ourselves and others. Using his experience as a former Google engineer and Chief Business Officer, Mo shares his 'code' for reprogramming our brain and moving away from the misconceptions modern life gives us.
A Scatter of Light
A Scatter of Light is a companion novel to the National Book Awards winner and New York Times bestseller Last Night at the Telegraph Club, and is about how the threads of family, inspiration, art, and identity are woven across generations.
Aria Tang West thought she'd be spending one last summer on Martha's Vineyard with her friends before starting MIT in the fall, where she intends to study astronomy, like her late grandfather.

Aria's parents, a writer and opera singer with plans of their own, send Aria to stay with her artist grandmother, Joan West, in Northern California.

Steph isn't single; she lives with her girlfriend, Lisa. But the chemistry between Aria and Steph seems undeniable, and this will be a summer that will turn her world upside down.

Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant
A collection of full-throated appreciations, withering assessments, and hard-won lessons by the popular journalist. There are a few things you need to know about Joel Golby. Both his parents are dead. His dad was an alcoholic. He himself has a complicated relationship with alcohol. He once went to karaoke three times in five days. He will always beat you at Monopoly, and he will always cheat. Joel makes a name for himself as a journalist who brings us distinguished articles such as ‘A Man Shits On A Plane So Hard It Has To Turn Around And Come Back Again’, but that says more about us than him. In his first book, Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Joel writes about important stuff (death, alcohol, loss, friendship) and unimportant stuff (Saudi Arabian Camel Pageants, a watertight ranking of the Rocky films, Monopoly), always with the soft punch of a lesson tucked within.
Golby’s sharp, evocative prose thrives on reality and honesty that is gut-wrenchingly close to the bone, and laced with a copious dose of dark humour. Who is this book for? It is for everyone, but mainly people who are as lost and confused as Joel and just want to have a good laugh about it.
Personality and Power
One of the great historians of our age asks: how far can a single leader alter the course of history?
The modern era saw the emergence of individuals who had command over a terrifying array of instruments of control, persuasion and death. Whole societies were re-shaped and wars fought, often with a merciless contempt for the most basic norms. At the summit of these societies were leaders whose personalities had somehow given them the ability to do whatever they wished.
Ian Kershaw's new book is a compelling, lucid and challenging attempt to understand these rulers, whether operating on the widest stage (Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini) or with a more national impact (Tito, Franco). What was it about these leaders and the times they lived in that allowed them such untrammelled and murderous power? And what brought that era to an end? In a contrasting group of profiles, from Churchill to de Gaulle, Adenauer to Gorbachev, and Thatcher to Kohl, Kershaw uses his exceptional skills to think through how other, strikingly different figures wielded power.

Too Much of Life - The Complete Cronicas
The things I've learned from taxi drivers would be enough to fill a book. They know a lot: they really do get around. I may know a lot about Antonioni that they don't know. Or maybe they do even when they don't. There are various ways of knowing by not-knowing. I know: it happens to me too. The cronica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers (or even soccer stars) to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector's pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio's leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love. This new, large, and beautifully translated volume, Too Much of Life: The Complete Cronicas presents a new aspect of the great writer-at once off the cuff and spot on.

The Time Before the Sun
Author searches the past of Earth, this solar system’s, and humanity’s. In his mind, if we are to forge a successful future, we must heed the Mesopotamian warning: In the Past the Future is Hidden.This is the first Bonilla book with the Our Hom Update ignition chapter. Other titles will follow. Our Hom means our human origin moons. Venus, Earth, Mars, and Heaven are our four human origin moons.
Moon Heaven is no longer with us. She escaped the solar system as part of the Nibiru lunar system.
Our Hom reveals original content from the author’s 37-year-research dealing with the remote past of this solar system, including certain aspects of what he believes are our true multi-lunar human origin worlds.
Our human origin moons have only one mission: to produce the Harvest. This mission is proceeding as you read. At the end of the day, only one thing matters: that you understand your position on the Harvest. You will travel well if you do.
We at Our Hom - https://hespesky.com - are pitching the idea that the Harvest is consistent with the existence of the spirit, where the spirit is an electromagnetic being with more pure physical aspects than the flesh. Here eternity becomes the ruler of the Entire Total of Everything. Our Hom is convinced that everything is eternal, including life.
Of course, you first must understand that moon Mercury, moon Venus, the Moon, moon Earth, and moon Mars must be recent sun captures (? 3,000 years)We have also included a few revised chapters from the author’s best seller book, The Lost Planet of Enki. He urges the reader to pay close attention to the following…Lightning, hurricanes, and tornadoes are the kisses the atmosphere of Earth is giving to her ever-evolving surface. Think of this as a celestial wedding where we are forcibly invited.
The people that claim they know what is happening here are calling their knowledge “human-made climate change.” This is completely wrong. Our Hom indicates that Earth is growing bigger and bigger. Getting hotter and hotter. This book will begin to tell you how this is taking place: How Earth is getting ready to become awfully bad for ground gardening. And, if we cannot tell you everything here, you will be directed to hespesky.com where all the right information is located.Warning: Do not attach your heart to material things. They will all be gone. You will certainly suffer more if you put your love on what you build. Everything that you have, and love, which is of this Earth, must remain of this Earth.Do not pray that we are wrong. Praying will do you no good. Asking for God’s help will be futile. Earth’s destiny as a developing celestial body is unstoppable. Just see everything different. Earth is a farm. We are the produce. The spirit is the farmer. The universe is the market. You are seeing the Harvest going on from sunup to sundown. From East to West. From North to South. From birth to…
So, are you ready to fly to The Time Before the Sun?
