21 Lessons for the 21st Century
**THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER**
The future is here. Learn to live in it.
In twenty-one bite-sized lessons, Yuval Noah Harari explores what it means to be human in an age of bewilderment.
How can we protect ourselves from nuclear war, ecological cataclysms and technological disruptions? What can we do about the epidemic of fake news or the threat of terrorism? What should we teach our children?
Yuval Noah Harari takes us on a thrilling journey through today's most urgent issues. The golden thread running through his exhilarating new book is the challenge of maintaining our collective and individual focus in the face of constant and disorienting change. Are we still capable of understanding the world we have created?
`Fascinating... compelling... [Harari] has teed up a crucial global conversation about how to take on the problems of the 21st century' Bill Gates, New York Times
`Truly mind-expanding... Ultra-topical' Guardian
`21 Lessons is, simply put, a crucial book' Adam Kay
The World for Sale
We are entering an age of energy crises and food shortages. This book reveals why.
Meet the swashbuckling traders who supply the world with energy, food and metal.
Their goal: To make billions by buying and selling raw materials - flogging Russian gas to Europe, Saudi oil to America and Congolese metals to Silicon Valley.
Their methods: Whatever it takes - whether funnelling cash to Vladimir Putin's sanction-stricken Kremlin, schmoozing Russian metal oligarchs after the collapse of the Soviet Union, or striking deals with the Libyan rebels at the height of the Arab Spring.
These are the commodity traders. You've probably never heard of them. But, like it or not, you're one of their customers.

Wait for you - Várok rád
A 19 éves Avery Morgansten életét egy öt évvel korábbi halloween-buli mindörökre megváltoztatta. Menekvésként az otthonától több ezer kilométerre lévő egyetemre jelentkezik. Nem akar mást, mint minden feltűnést kerülve elvégezni az iskoláit - de már az első napon összeakad egy sráccal, aki képes darabokra törni a maga számára gondosan felépített jövőt.
Vannak dolgok, amiket át kell élni...
Cameron Hamilton 190 centi magas, amolyan leányálom - szikrázóan kék szemmel és valami megfoghatatlan képességgel arra, hogy Avery megint olyasmikre vágyjon, amiktől évekkel korábban megfosztották. Veszedelmes dolog lenne közelebbről is megismerkedni vele, de lehetetlen figyelmen kívül hagyni a kettejük között vibráló feszültséget, ami felszínre hozza Avery személyiségének egy mindeddig ismeretlen oldalát.
Vannak dolgok, amiket nem lehet elhallgatni...
Aztán Avery egyre több fenyegető e-mailt és hívást kap, és kénytelen szembenézni a múltjával, amit annyira szeretett volna mindörökre elfelejteni. Rádöbben, hogy van valaki, aki nem fogja egykönnyen elengedni. Vajon ha kiderül a rettenetes igazság, ezzel Avery is elindulhat a gyógyulás útján?
És Cam akkor is mellette marad majd, ha megtudja mi történt?
Vannak dolgok, amikért megéri harcolni...

Food for life
Food is our greatest ally for good health, but the question of what to eat has never seemed so complicated. Tim Spector has pioneered a science-based approach to nutrition, encouraging us to forget misleading notions of calorie counts or nutritional breakdowns. In Food for Life he draws on over a decade of cutting-edge scientific research, along with his own personal insights, to deliver a new and comprehensive guide to what we should all know about food today. Taking a wide-angle lens on everything from environmental impact and food fraud to allergies and deceptive labelling, Spector also shows us the many wondrous and surprising properties of everyday foods, which scientists are only just beginning to understand.
Empowering, practical, wide-ranging and filled with intriguing insights, Food for Life is nothing less than a new approach to how to eat - for our health and the health of the planet.
A Little Girl in Auschwitz
The No. 1 international bestseller, with a foreword by His Holiness Pope Francis, who made headlines in 2021 when he kissed Lidia's Auschwitz identification tattoo.
The unforgettable, moving true story of the little girl who survived Auschwitz's 'Angel of Death', Dr Mengele.
Lidia was just three years old when she arrived in Auschwitz-Birkenau with her mother, a member of the partisan resistance from Belarus. The bewildered little girl was picked out by Dr Josef Mengele for his sadistic experiments and sent to the infamous children’s block, where every day was a fight for survival. In eighteen months of hell she came close to death more than once.
Her mother, who risked her life to visit Lidia, gave her strength. But when the camp was liberated, her mother was gone, presumed dead. Lidia, by now deeply traumatised, was adopted by a Polish woman. But then, in 1962, she discovered that her birth parents were still alive in the USSR, and Lidia was faced with an agonising choice . . .
Lidia’s extraordinary story has touched hearts around the world, and she has made it her mission to bear witness to the Holocaust so that the truth may never be forgotten. This is a powerful and ultimately hopeful account by a remarkable woman who refuses to hate those who hurt her. She says, ‘Hate only brings more hate. Love, on the other hand, has the power to redeem.’
