Together, these texts set out strategies and techniques for warfare and conflict that span more than 2500 years. In The Art of War, Chinese general Sun Tzu promotes strategic flexibility, quick thinking on the battlefield, and understanding the enemy's intentions.The Book of Five Rings covers swordsmanship and the martial arts, emphasizing the need to perfect technique to improve control and discipline. In The Way of the Samurai, Inazo Nitobe explores the moral code of the Japanese warrior class, ideals that still resonate in modern Japanese society and the wider world.

Danshari
"Meet Japan's original decluttering guru (no, not that one)! Before Marie Kondo stormed into the global consciousness, Hideko Yamashita taught Japan the art of creating tidier spaces." —The New York TimesJapan's original decluttering guru, Hideko Yamashita, first developed her decluttering method known as Danshari over two decades ago. Danshari is much more than just "a way to tidy up." Yes, you'll feel refreshed once your surroundings are in order—but that's just the beginning!At its heart, Danshari is about release. It's about removing what no longer serves you emotionally as well as physically. Discarding clutter frees you from outdated beliefs and emotional burdens that are holding you back. The word Danshari literally means "reduce, release and relieve"—or, in other words, lightness, clarity and freedom. This isn't just about throwing out old stuff. It's about creating space in your life for clarity, peace and joy with other people. Whether it's stressing about money, difficult relationships, family expectations or the fear of aging—Danshari offers you a way forward!Ms. Yamashita's real-life stories illustrate the life-changing power of Danshari, for example:Kaede went through a traumatic divorce, but was only able to tell her family about it after she had thrown away the old furniture left behind by her ex. Yoko spent three months getting rid of accumulated junk, literally creating a space in her home for a future husband—whom she met soon after her house was ready!Sachi spent 20 years accepting gifts of dinnerware from her mother-in-law until her cupboardswere overflowing. When she finally managed to throw these items away, her resentful feelings toward her mother-in-law also vanished. And many more true stories of Danshari's power to transform!In a recent New York Times interview, Ms. Yamashita explains how her philosophy differs from that of other decluttering experts, such as Marie Kondo. She says the Danshari method encourages people to think about why they are attached to certain items and to examine the impact old belongings and obsessions can have on their emotional state. "For me, Danshari is not about tidying up, organizing or tossing away things that don't spark joy […] It is about returning to a state in which parting with things feels natural."This is far more than a guide to cleaning up your house. It's a roadmap to a whole new life!
The Rise and Fall of American Europe
At the dawn of the Cold War, the US administration pushed reluctant Europeans to create a federation of democratic states. In doing so, they gave birth to an American Europe – a new political order protected by the US military and buoyed by transatlantic trade. Europe now faces a stark reality. The Trump Administration dislikes NATO, considers the EU's trade policies "worse than China['s]," and attacks the banning of nationalist parties. Many in the MAGA movement are similarly hostile to Europe, which they see as an overregulated museum, a US dependency, powerless on the world-stage. This book explains why American Europe fell from favor. It weighs the prospects of alternative European political orders, including a National-Sovereigntist Europe, a Global Europe, and a European Europe. It argues that Europe needs to rethink its alliances, and Britain must decide where it belongs.
The Genius Myth
The tech disruptor. The tortured poet. The rebellious scientist. The monstrous artist.
You can tell what a society values by who it labels as a genius. You can also tell who it excludes, who it enables, and what it is prepared to tolerate.
Taking us from the Renaissance Florence of Leonardo da Vinci to the Floridian rocket launches of Elon Musk's SpaceX, Helen Lewis unravels a word that we all use - without really questioning what it means - and asks if the modern idea of genius is distorting our view of the world.
Once I Get Started
Despite prevailing assumptions, ADHD is still an underdiagnosed condition. Not only is the diagnostic scale subjective , but the hallmarks of ADHD often remain shrouded behind conditions like anxiety and depression. Most individuals with ADHD live through their formative years with symptoms that so powerfully derail their confidence, future, career, relationships, and sense of self. And many of them are not first diagnosed until adulthood despite their struggles. An esteemed psychologist and retired clinical professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Perelman School of Medicine, Dr. Russell Ramsay, has worked with countless patients - some suffering from severe cases of ADHD, others having experienced the common frustrations of undiagnosed ADHD for most of their lives. With the help of his groundbreaking program, his patients have found ways to support their brain, express their emotions, prioritize what matters, release shame, blame, and guilt, and see the world in the creative, bright, brilliant delight this neurodivergence offers. The solution isn't simply getting back to whatever is considered "normal." As Dr. Ramsay presents in this book, there are patient-proven specific solutions to bolstering our executive function and these methods combined with a more comprehensive understanding of the emotional pain-points at the root of ADHD can transform lives. Dr. Ramsay offers a paradigm-shift to help us stop blaming and shaming ourselves for our moment-to-moment inattention and instead focus on the behaviors and routines that form the foundation of our lives. It's for anyone seeking a healthier relationship with their to-do list, more positive inner self-talk, and a new perspective on what is possible when we embrace and support our sometimes-unreliable minds.
The Heart of Caring in the Age of Forgetting
Millions of capable adults lose their memory each year, and someone must answer the call to care. When her spirited mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, Diane-Allene Hull navigated a maze of confusion, caregiving decisions, and emotional reckoning. The Heart of Caring in the Age of Forgetting is an unflinching memoir that charts one woman's journey through the evolving landscape of dementia—medical assessments, assisted-living facilities, broken systems, and moments of unexpected grace. The author tells a story of fierce devotion, inner strength, and the enduring power of human connection. As a seasoned physician assistant, Hull has cared for complex patients, yet she was shaken when her mother failed to recognize her. Spanning mild cognitive impairment to the final stages of dementia, this deeply personal narrative blends reflection, medical insight, and practical guidance for caregivers. Part memoir, part guide, and part call to action, The Heart of Caring in the Age of Forgetting explores how Alzheimer's disease reshapes identity, family, and the meaning of presence. Along the way, Hull confronts painful truths, discovers her resilience, and poses a vital question: What does it truly mean to care?
Make Believe
Make Believe is bestselling children’s author Mac Barnett’s rallying cry for art and imagination, and a celebration of the power of storytelling in all our lives. It’s an incisive, intimate, and timely invitation to approach children’s literature not only as an art form worthy of deep study and criticism, but as a portal into the lives of the children. And at a time when we are faced with a national literacy crisis, he champions the profound joys of literature and the importance of reading for pleasure.
What if children are a great audience for art?
What if they are in fact better equipped to engage deeply with stories than adults?
What if humans’ ability to appreciate art is, if not innate, awakened early in childhood?
Well, then we’d better do our best to make some good kids’ books.
Written with humor and academic rigor, Make Believe reads like a letter from your smartest and funniest friend.
Includes spreads from Goodnight Moon and Busy, Busy Town, illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen, and cover art by celebrated illustrator Carson Ellis.
Super Agers
In this breakthrough moment in the history of human health care, Super Agers is an evidenced-based guide to the revolution transforming human longevity. From his unique position as a leader overseeing millions in research funding, Dr Topol explains how you can benefit from new the treatments becoming available at a faster rate than ever, and the fundamental reasons - from semaglutides to AI - that we can be confident these breakthroughs will continue.
More than a quarter of the adult population lives with two or more chronic diseases, with that figure increasing to over half in individuals aged 65 and older. Dr Topol explains the power of the new approaches to the worst chronic killers - diabetes/obesity, heart disease, cancer, and neurodegeneration-and how treatments can begin long before middle age, and even long after. In thirty years, we will have five times as many people at least one hundred years old and they will be healthier than ever because of the breakthroughs Super Agers describes.
These remarkable discoveries are deeply inspiring about our human potential. We can now realistically see how we can make considerable headway for preventing age-related diseases and may one day be able to slow the body-wide aging process itself.
'Imagine a world where diseases once thought incurable are treated, where we are healthier for longer. This future is getting close thanks to a radical convergence of AI and bioscience. In this gripping, vitally important and meticulously researched account, Eric Topol reveals the extraordinary breakthroughs that are transforming medicine-and our lives.'
Mustafa Suleyman, author of The Coming Wave
How We Come to Be
Our existence as living beings - thinking, feeling, acting - is an extraordinary thing: this book provides a scientifically based account of the entirety of factors that lead to our existence. The text begins with the physical foundations of our existence, examining the cosmological context of the vast expanding and evolving universe, enabling the existence of the Sun and the Earth. It goes on to summarise the underlying physics and chemistry, explaining behaviour on an atomic and molecular level, and considers the nature of biological emergence, arguing that all complex systems are modular hierarchical structures, allowing function to emerge at every level, and both upward and downward interactions occur between emergent levels. The book then goes on to examine fundamental processes such as metabolism, dealing with material and energy needs, and homeostasis, stabilising the system against perturbing influences. At the molecular level, this is all enabled by change of shape of macromolecules, and the text looks at how we come into being by a combination of natural selection and developmental processes, which interact with each other and with physiology. Finally, the book discusses the brain and mind, emphasizing the interaction of rationality and emotions, and examining the nature of mental causation and free will. It then delves into existence on a societal level, showing how social institutions having causal powers, and arguing that society can be understood as a homeostatic feedback system relating welfare to social, economic, political, and legal interactions. All social outcomes are determined crucially by our values, the nature of which can be represented by a spectrum of values ranging from very destructive and selfish to very constructive and generous. The final chapter discusses whether meaning exists in the universe, providing evidence that the answer is yes, arguing for moral realism and the existence of a series of abstract possibility spaces that form the deep structure of the cosmos.

In Trees
A tree is not just a type of being, it is also a way of being - one that is wildly creative, fantastically resilient, and most of all, deeply rooted...
From bestselling author Robert Moor comes a wondrous journey through the wilds of nature and the gnarls of history, exploring how trees - from the tiniest bonsai to the mightiest sequoia - teach us to grow wise.
One day, on a whim, Robert Moor set out to climb a tree near his home, unwittingly embarking on what would become a decade-long, globe-spanning adventure. Drawing on an astonishing range of thinkers, from cutting-edge scientists to ancient philosophers, Moor explores how trees have shaped human lives for millennia - and how they can guide us into the future.
His hunt for the 'wisdom of trees' takes him from the Lake District to Ethiopia, Tanzania, Papua and Japan. He dines with David Attenborough, naps with chimpanzees and risks his life to save an ancient forest. Along the way, Moor investigates some of humanity's oldest mysteries: What is the secret to growing old well? How do we set down roots in an increasingly chaotic world? And most importantly, how should we - as individuals, as communities, as stewards of the Earth - live?
What begins as an ode to the miracle of trees blossoms into a joyous, daring, fiercely hopeful endeavour to broaden our minds and deepen our connections. To truly grasp the wisdom of a tree, this bold new classic announces, you must learn to think like one.
Božia vôľa
Od samého počiatku mala v charizme jednoty ústredné miesto Božia vôľa prežívaná ako odpoveď lásky k Bohu. Chiara Lubichová o nej v priebehu rokov často hovorila a písala, a navrhovala ju ako cestu k svätosti pre všetky´ch, ktorú treba žiť v každom prítomnom okamihu.
Táto zbierka čerpá z dokumentov, z veľkej časti doteraz nepublikovany´ch, ktoré sú uložené v Centre Chiary Lubichovej. Striedajú sa v nej stránky denníka, listy, pozdravy, myšlienky, ktoré nás vťahujú do cesty, ktorou prešla Lubichová, a ponúkajú syntézu jej chápania tohto kľúčového bodu spirituality jednoty.
Benevolence and Bondage
How Jonathan Edwards's theology of equality laid foundations for early American abolitionism In this groundbreaking book, John T. Lowe reexamines Jonathan Edwards's legacy by focusing on the intersections among slavery, race, and theology. Connecting seemingly disparate aspects of Edwards's life and thought, Lowe offers a powerful new interpretation of one of America's most influential theologians. While Edwards was himself an enslaver, his theological writings—especially his concept of "civil-spiritual dualism"—provided impetus for some of his followers to embrace abolitionism. Through close analysis of sermons, letters, and personal writings, Lowe reveals the tensions and transformations within Edwards's thought. The theological, social, and political implications of this revivalist preacher's private and public ideas extended beyond New England and shaped debates across the early American republic. Benevolence and Bondage challenges familiar narratives about Edwardsean thought and the theological roots of the antislavery movement. Lowe clarifies Edwards's theological position and reframes how religious ideas both supported and disrupted slavery. Bridging history and theology, Lowe contributes significantly to the Edwards renaissance and confronts uncomfortable truths at the heart of the American colonial project.
