Fashionopolis: The Price of Fast Fashion - and the Future of Clothes
'A gripping blockbuster ... Thomas researches meticulously and writes with simmering even-handed anger' TELEGRAPH. Fashionopolis is the definitive book on the cost of fast fashion, and a blueprint for how we get to a more sustainable future.
Fashion has blighted our planet. Today, one out of six people on earth work in fashion, churning out 100 billion garments a year. Yet 98 percent of them do not earn a living wage, and 2.1 billion tonnes of clothing is thrown away annually. The clothing industry's exploitation of fellow humans and the environment has reached epic levels. What should we do?
Bestselling author and veteran journalist Dana Thomas has travelled the globe to find the answers. In Fashionopolis, she details the damage wrought by fashion's behemoths, and celebrates the visionaries - including activists, artisans, designers, and tech entrepreneurs - fighting for change.
We all have been casual about our clothes. It's time to get dressed with intention. Fashionopolis is the first comprehensive look at how to start.

The Change
The change is coming...
Nessa: The Seeker
Jo: The Protector
Harriett: The Punisher
With newfound powers the time has come to take matters into their own hands...After Nessa is widowed and her daughters leave for college, she's left alone in her house near the ocean. In the quiet hours, she hears voices belonging to the dead - who will only speak to her. On the cusp of fifty Harriett's marriage and career imploded, and she hasn't left her house in months. But her life is far from over - in fact, she's undergone a stunning metamorphosis. Jo spent thirty years at war with her body. The rage that arrived with menopause felt like the last straw - until she discovers she's able to channel it. Guided by voices only Nessa can hear, the trio discover the abandoned body of a teenage girl. The police have written off the victim. But the women have not. Their own investigations lead them to more bodies and a world of wealth where the rules don't apply - and the realisation that laws are designed to protect villains, not the vulnerable. So it's up to these three women to avenge the innocent, and punish the guilty...The time has come to embrace The Change

A Földet vörösre festi a rengeteg kiontott vér, miközben gigászi hadseregek küzdenek valamiért, ami az egész világ pusztulását hozhatja.

King of Sloth
The must-read billionaire romance from the bestselling author of the Twisted series.
Read King of Sloth now for a steamy reverse grumpy sunshine romance.
He'd never wanted anyone enough to chase them . . . until he met her.
Charming, easy-going, and rich beyond belief, Xavier Castillo has the world at his fingertips.
He also has no interest in taking over his family's empire (much to his father's chagrin), but that hasn't stopped women from throwing themselves at him . . . unless the woman in question is his publicist.
Nothing brings him more joy than riling her up, but when a tragedy forces them closer than ever, he must grapple with the uncertainty of his future - and the realization that the only person immune to his charms is the only one he truly wants.
***
Cool, intelligent, and ambitious, Sloane Kensington is a high-powered publicist who's used to dealing with difficult clients.
However, none infuriate - or tempt - her more than a certain billionaire heir, with his stupid dimples and laid-back attitude.
She may be forced to work with him, but she'll never fall for him . . . no matter how fast he makes her heart beat or how thoughtful he is beneath his party persona.
He's her client, and that's all he'll ever be. Right?
King of Sloth is a steamy reverse grumpy sunshine billionaire romance. It includes explicit content and profanity. Recommended for mature readers only.

When the Dreadmount erupts, bringing with it an age of terror and violence, these women must find the strength to protect humankind from a devastating threat.

Primer of Happiness: Self knowledge, connections, self change
“Your soul yearns to be loved. By you.”
Why a person attracts a “bad” partner? Why what you desire is not becoming true? How to speed up the intention? What is the reason of excessive apologizing and self blame? How to solve the pressure of gossiping and envy? What is the real origin of illness? The more you help others, the more they hurt you?
The second part of Hirax´s Primer of Happiness focuses on self observation as the way of getting to know you and clearing, perception of the connections with things that keep repeating , the beginning of inner dialogue, getting rid of bad habits and programs that harm us. The author tries to answer why a person does not get what he desires, how to speed up the intention (by sacrifice and humility), he accentuates the importance of gratitude, self forgiveness, the end of excessive apologizing and self blame. It comes to solving the consequences of gossiping, envy, creation of illnesses, hidden guilt with the consequence of a caravan of pains.
The book describes the model and the creation of “victims”, silent energetic vampire, reasons of the low self esteem and the birth of fears in a person, model of aggressive energetic vampire, the creation of monkey´s love. In the chapters focused on relationships, Baričák paid attention to the importance of communication, the elimination of conflicts and arguments, and understanding why a person attracts a “bad” partner.
The book wants to positively motivate towards the stepping to the way of self change and melting of the spiritual pains.

Debutový album kapely „30 Seconds to Mars“ (2002), produkoval Bob Ezrin a vyšiel s pozitívnymi ohlasmi, ale len s obmedzeným komerčným úspechom. Kapela sa celosvetovo preslávila vydaním svojho druhého albumu “A Beautiful Lie“ (2005), ktorý získal viacero ocenení po celom svete. „This Is War“ (2009), ukázalo dramatický vývoj v hudobnom štýle kapely, pretože zahŕňalo experimentálnu hudbu, ako aj eklektické vplyvy. Proces nahrávania albumu bol poznačený súdnym sporom s nahrávacou spoločnosťou EMI, ktorý sa nakoniec stal námetom pre dokumentárny film „Artifact“ (2012). Thirty Seconds to Mars sa potom presunuli do Universal Music a vydali štvrtý album „Love, Lust, Faith and Dreams“ (2013), ktorý zaznamenal kritický a komerčný úspech. Po ňom nasledovala „Amerika“ (2018), ktorá po vydaní polarizovala kritikov.

How to Change
'Game-changing. Katy Milkman shows in this book that we can all be a super human' Angela Duckworth, bestselling author of Grit
How to Change is a powerful, groundbreaking blueprint to help you - and anyone you manage, teach or coach - to achieve personal and professional goals, from the master of human nature and behaviour change and Choiceology podcast host Professor Katy Milkman.
Award-winning Wharton Professor Katy Milkman has devoted her career to the study of behaviour change. An engineer by training, she approaches all challenges as problems to be solved and, with this mind-set, has drilled into the roadblocks that prevent us from achieving our goals and breaking unwanted behaviours. The key to lasting change, she argues, is not to set ever more audacious goals or to foster good habits but to get your strategy right.
In How to Change Milkman identifies seven human impulses, or 'problems', that commonly sabotage our attempts to make positive personal and professional change. Then, crucially, instead of getting you to do battle with these impulses she shows you how to harness them and use these as driving forces to help instil new, positive behaviours - better, faster and more efficiently than you could imagine.
Drawing her own original research, countless engaging case studies and practical tools throughout to help you put her ideas into action, Milkman reveals a proven, inspiring path that can take you - once and for all - from where you are today to where you want to be.
How Minds Change
As the world is increasingly polarised, it feels impossible to change the mind of someone with a conflicting view. But this book shows that you could be one conversation away from changing someone's mind about something, maybe a lot of things.
Self-delusion expert and psychology nerd David McRaney sets out to discover not just what it takes to influence others, but why we believe in the first place. Along the way he meets a former Westboro Baptist Church member who was deradicalised on Twitter, goes deep canvassing to see how quickly people will surrender their character-defining views, finds a 9/11 Truther who turns his back on it all, and reveals how, within a few years, half a country can go from opposing the 'gay agenda' to happily attending same-sex weddings.
Distilling the latest research in psychology and neuroscience, How Minds Change reveals how beliefs take hold, not over hundreds of years, but in less than a generation, in less than a decade, and sometimes in an instant.
