The Beatles - Get Back
Az eredeti angol kiadással egy időben magyarul is olvasható lesz az új Beatles-filmhez kapcsolódó exkluzív könyv!
1969 januárjában a Beatles azzal a nagyszabású tervvel vágott neki az új esztendőnek, hogy egy különleges show keretében filmre veszik, ahogy dalokat írnak és próbálnak, majd előadják őket közönség előtt. A később Get Back néven ismertté vált projekt kétszeresen is visszatérést jelentett, hiszen az együttes ekkor már két és fél éve nem koncertezett, a kísérletező korszakukat követően pedig vissza akartak kanyarodni az eredeti rockos gyökerekhez. Egy hónapon keresztül kamerák és mikrofonok rögzítették minden szavukat, ám hogy végül mi valósult meg az elképzelésekből, azt meséli el az akkor rögzített dialógusok alapján ez a fotókkal gazdagon illusztrált kötet, amely szorosan kapcsolódik a Peter Jackson rendezte, azonos című új Beatles-filmhez.

The Girl and the Moon
The green world overwhelms all of Yaz's expectations. Everything seems different but some things remain the same: her old enemies are still bent on her destruction.
The Corridor abounds with plenty and unsuspected danger. To stand a chance against the eyeless priest, Eular, and the god-like city-mind, Seus, Yaz will need to learn fast and make new friends.
The Convent of Sweet Mercy, like the Corridor itself, is packed with peril and opportunity. Yaz needs the nuns' help - but first they want to execute her.
The fate of everyone squeezed between the Corridor's vast walls, and ultimately the fate of those labouring to survive out on ice itself, hangs from the moon, and the battle to save the moon centres on the Ark of the Missing, buried beneath the emperor's palace. Everyone wants Yaz to be the key that will open the Ark - the one the wise have sought for generations. But sometimes wanting isn't enough.
THE GIRL AND THE MOON is the third and final volume in The Book of Ice trilogy.

The American Roommate Experiment
From the author of the Goodreads Choice Award winner The Spanish Love Deception, the eagerly anticipated follow-up featuring Rosie Graham and Lucas Martin, who are forced to share a New York apartment.
Rosie Graham has a problem. A few, actually. She just quit her well paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer. She hasn't told her family and now has terrible writer's block. Then, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. Luckily she has her best friend Lina's spare key while she's out of town. But Rosie doesn't know that Lina has already lent her apartment to her cousin Lucas, who Rosie has been stalking-for lack of a better word-on Instagram for the last few months. Lucas seems intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armour. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel, has a distracting grin, and an irresistible accent. Oh, and he cooks.
Lucas offers to let Rosie stay with him, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. And then he proposes an outrageous experiment to bring back her literary muse and meet her deadline: He'll take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump-start her romantic inspiration. Rosie has nothing to lose. Her silly, online crush is totally under control-but Lucas's time in New York has an expiration date, and six weeks may not be enough, for either her or her deadline.

The Hedgehog And The Fox
The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing.
For Isaiah Berlin, there is a fundamental distinction in mankind: those who are fascinated by the infinite variety of things - foxes - and those who relate everything to a central all-embracing system - hedgehogs. It can be applied to the greatest creative minds: Dante, Ibsen and Proust are hedgehogs, while Shakespeare, Aristotle and Joyce are foxes.
Yet when Berlin reaches the case of Tolstoy, he finds a fox by nature, but a hedgehog by conviction; a duality which holds the key to understanding Tolstoy's work, illuminating a paradox of his philosophy of history and showing why he was frequently misunderstood by his contemporaries and critics.
Where the Deer and the Antelope Play
Going back to his literal roots, Nick Offerman takes a journey to America's frontier to celebrate the people and stories, both historically and today, that have made it great - and, working together, will keep it that way. Nick Offerman has always loved the United States of America - not just the people and the history, but the actual land itself. In his new book, Nick takes a humorous, inspiring, and fascinating trip to America's frontier to celebrate the people, landscape, and stories, both historically and today, that have made it great - and, working together, will keep it that way. In July 2019, Nick took a hiking trip to Glacier National Park with his friends Jeff Tweedy and George Saunders. The trip, and the conversations between the three men, began a study and exploration of both the American West and our National Parks that addresses so many of the important issues that affect America today. This book both maps out the group's travels and dives deeply into subjects such as: the history and geology of the National Parks of the West; farming, animal life, and conservation; the importance of outdoor recreation, including hunting and fishing; and building both local and national communities across party lines - all subjects very close to Nick's heart. With wit, heartwarming stories, and a keen insight into new and exciting ways to see both the past and the future of the country, Nick Offerman is ready to tackle his most important subject yet.

The Gap and The Gain
Dan Sullivan shares his simple yet profound teaching that, until now, has only been known to his Strategic Coach clients: unsuccessful people focus on 'The Gap', but successful people focus on 'The Gain'.
Most people, especially highly ambitious people, are unhappy because of how they measure their progress. We all have an 'ideal', a moving target that is always out of reach. When we measure ourselves against that ideal, we're in 'the GAP'. However, when we measure ourselves against our previous selves, we're in 'the GAIN'.
That is where The GAP and The GAIN concept comes in. It was developed by legendary entrepreneur coach Dan Sullivan and is based on his work with tens of thousands of successful entrepreneurs. When Dan's coaching clients periodically take stock of all that they've accomplished - both personally and professionally - they are often shocked at how much they have actually achieved. They weren't able to appreciate their progress because no matter how much they were getting done, they were usually measuring themselves against their ideals or goals.
In this book you will learn that measuring your current self vs. your former self has enormous psychological benefits. And that's really the key to this deceptively simple yet multi-layered concept that will have you feeling good, feeling grateful and feeling like you are making progress even when times are tough, which will in turn will bolster motivation, confidence and future success.
If you're finding that happiness eludes you no matter how much you've achieved, then learning this easy mindset shift will set you on a life-changing path to greater fulfilment and success.

Zrcadlová četba - The Little Prince - Malý princ (B2-C1)
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry napsal a poprvé vydal Malého prince v roce 1943, pouhý rok před tím, než jeho letadlo zmizelo během průzkumného letu nad Korsikou.

Tento lyrický příběh s pohádkovým nádechem, jenž usiluje o nalezení pravého smyslu života, si najde svou jedinečnou cestičku ke každému čtenáři.
The Little Prince was written and published first by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in 1943, only a year before his plane disappeared on a reconnaissance flight over Corsica. And there are only a few books cherished by adults as well as children. This lyrical story with a fairy tale feel that explores the very meaning of life creates a unique relationship with each reader.
