The Concise Laws of Human Nature
Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of readers, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves.
We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose.
Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Concise Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defence.
Do Less
Our addiction to busyness and obsession with always trying to do more leads us to feel like we're always failing our families, our careers, our spouses, and ourselves. We need to revolutionize the way we work. It's not acceptable to work ourselves to the brink of exhaustion, to constantly be "on-call" and checking our work e-mail around the clock.
How do we fix the system? The answer isn't some corporate policy. And it isn't "leaning in." It's a system within ourselves, in our daily work lives, and in our homes. Because the only way to create a new system is to be it.
Instead of "leaning in," and "doing it all," entrepreneur and best-selling author Kate Northrup invites you to experiment with doing less. By doing less, paradoxically, you can have - and be - more. In this book, you'll get the permission and tools to change the way you approach your life, and embrace living in tune with the cyclical nature of the feminine.

Radost z chůze
Klást jednu nohu před druhou, vydat se na cestu a zažít radost z objevování – to je pro člověka ta nejpřirozenější činnost.
Naši předkové cestovali pěšky i na dlouhé vzdálenosti, získávali přitom nové zkušenosti a učili se z nich. Ale ačkoli je chůze tak univerzální, každý z nás ji prožívá jinak. Pro norského polárníka a filozofa Erlinga Kaggeho je zdrojem otázek, které ho fascinují.
Chůze je pro něj nerozlučně spjatá s tvořivostí, je protilékem na uspěchanost, která ovládla naše životy a nutí nás, abychom vše dělali rychle a efektivně.
Chodit pěšky je tak vlastně tou nejradikálnější změnou, kterou v životě můžeme udělat.
„Když jsem si nazul boty a nechal myšlenky volně plynout, došlo mi jedno: Klást jednu nohu před druhou patří mezi nejdůležitější činnosti člověka.“
Invisible Women
Imagine a world where your phone is too big for your hand, where your doctor prescribes a drug that is wrong for your body, where in a car accident you are 47% more likely to be seriously injured, where every week the countless hours of work you do are not recognised or valued.
If any of this sounds familiar, chances are that you're a woman.
Invisible Women shows us how, in a world largely built for and by men, we are systematically ignoring half the population. It exposes the gender data gap – a gap in our knowledge that is at the root of perpetual, systemic discrimination against women, and that has created a pervasive but invisible bias with a profound effect on women’s lives.
From government policy and medical research, to technology, workplaces, urban planning and the media, Invisible Women reveals the biased data that excludes women.
Award-winning campaigner and writer Caroline Criado Perez brings together for the first time an impressive range of case studies, stories and new research from across the world that illustrate the hidden ways in which women are forgotten, and the impact this has on their health and well-being. In making the case for change, this powerful and provocative book will make you see the world anew.

Hledáte vztah založený na důvěře, úctě a vzájemném naslouchání? Topíte se v neuzavřených vztazích z minulosti, bolestných rozchodech, strachu ze zklamání nebo se zaplétáte se zadanými muži?
Díky této knize v sobě znovu probudíte svou ženskost, krásu a přitažlivost a pomocí praktických cvičení se zbavíte všeho, co vám dosud bránilo potkat toho pravého.

Von z Bludiska
Po dvadsiatich rokoch a dvadsiatich ôsmich miliónoch predaných výtlačkov sa konečne objavilo pokračovanie obľúbenej klasiky Kam sa podel môj Syr?
Pokračujúc tam, kde skončil Kam sa podel môj Syr?, je Von z Bludiska jednoduchý príbeh, ktorý ponúka hlboké pravdy o tom, ako zmeniť svoj život.
Keď sme sa v knihe Kam sa podel môj Syr? prvýkrát stretli s postavami, veľkými ako myši, ktoré sa volali Bojko a Mojko, čelili neočakávanej zmene, lebo náhle zmizol Syr, ktorý mali radi. Mojko sa s tou zmenou naučil úspešne vyrovnať a vydal sa hľadať Nový Syr. Bojko však zostal uviaznutý tam, kde bol.
Kniha Von z Bludiska teraz prezrádza, čo robil Bojko ďalej a ako vám jeho objavy môžu pomôcť vyriešiť záhadu akýchkoľvek bludísk, v ktorých sa môžete ocitnúť.
Syr je metafora pre všetko, čo vás drží pri živote, či už je to dobré zamestnanie, láskou naplnený vzťah, peniaze, hmotné statky, dobré zdravie alebo pokoj duše. Bludisko je metafora pre akúkoľvek náročnú či neľahkú situáciu, ktorá vám bráni nájsť a vychutnať si svoj Syr.
Keď budete na ich ceste sledovať Bojka a jeho novú priateľku Nádej, objavíte, ako myslením mimo zabehnutých koľají dostať od života viac. Alebo, v tomto prípade, mimo Bludiska.
Prečítanie príbehu, ktorý bol napísaný pre čitateľov každého veku a zo všetkých prostredí, vám nezaberie ani hodinu, no jeho postrehy môžu pretrvať na celý život.

Všetko je riešiteľné
Buďme k sebe úprimní – nikto z nás nedostal pri narodení návod na obsluhu života. Možno často niečo začnete, ale máte problém to dokončiť. Možno máte plno nápadov, ale boríte sa s ich uskutočnením.
Chyba nie je vo vás. Nie je to tým, že by ste neboli pracovití, inteligentní a ani tým, že by ste si to nezaslúžili. Skôr ste si ešte neosvojili jednu kľúčovú myšlienku, ktorá všetko zmení.
„Moja mama, ktorá má vytrvalosť buldoga a slovník šoféra kamióna, mi to vysvetlila takto: ,Nič na svete nie je také zložité, ako sa na prvý pohľad zdá. Dokážeš všetko, čo si zaumieniš. Stačí si vyhrnúť rukávy a pustiť sa do práce. Všetko je riešiteľné.’“ spomína autorka.
Či už chcete odísť z neperspektívnej práce, prekonať závislosť, naučiť sa niečo nové, zlepšiť vzťah, naštartovať podnikanie, stať sa pánom svojich financií, cestovať okolo sveta či skoncovať s hladom v Afrike, kniha Všetko je riešiteľné naučí váš mozog myslieť tvorivejšie, pozitívnejšie a dosiahnuť cieľ, ktorý ste si vytýčili. A to aj vtedy (či najmä vtedy), keď sa neviete hnúť z miesta alebo čelíte vážnym prekážkam.

13 vecí, ktoré psychicky silné ženy nerobia
Kniha skúma oblasti, na ktoré sa ženy, ale aj celá spoločnosť, musia zamerať, ak chcú byť (a zostať) psychicky silné. Poskytuje premyslené a inteligentné rady, praktické návody a špecifické stratégie, ktoré autorka ilustruje na svojich osobných skúsenostiach, príbehoch svojich pacientov a známych aj neznámych príkladoch žien, ktoré pôsobia v rôznych odvetviach priemyslu a pop-kultúry.
Ukazuje, že zdravé, psychicky silné ženy netrvajú na dokonalosti, neporovnávajú sa s inými ľuďmi, nepovažujú zraniteľnosť za slabosť a nedovoľujú, aby ich pochybnosti o sebe brzdili v dosahovaní vytýčených cieľov. Autorka bestsellerov Amy Morin znova napísala múdru, realistickú a dôležitú knihu, ktorá môže pomôcť každej žene v osobnom rozvoji, a tým zlepšiť nielen jej život, ale aj celú našu spoločnosť.
