Inspiration
Inspiration propels us. It’s the basis of every accomplishment. But the idea that it simply falls into your lap is a myth. Inspiration doesn’t come to us in a gust of wind, only to disappear into the mist again. You make it happen; it’s a reward for work that you’ve already done. The combination of perspiration and inspiration takes you to where you want to go. In this ode to what is perhaps the brain’s greatest achievement, Ap Dijksterhuis explains, with a storyteller’s verve, what inspiration is, why we have it, how it works and how to get it. Drawing upon on the most up-to-date research in neuroscience and psychology, he shows how inspiration stands in relation to creativity, motivation, curiosity and the overall functioning of the brain. Ultimately, inspiration is not a privilege granted to a talented few: everyone who chooses inspiration will benefit from it. Including you.
The Emergence of Awe
The Emergence of Awe: Reimagining Human Progress for the 21st Century is an accessible, concise, yet thought-provoking read for curious minds of all ages – particularly students, independent thinkers, and those interested in science, philosophy, and the future of society.
The book examines humanity at a pivotal moment, where rapid technological advances collide with stagnant political and social systems. Drawing on science, philosophy and history, Hayk Sarkissian presents a bold new way of thinking, urging us to align human values with objective reality.
He challenges long-held assumptions underpinning modern society and proposes a philosophical shift to empower human flourishing in today’s world of unprecedented change and social upheaval. The Emergence of Awe reimagines our relationship with time, evolution, consciousness and tradition to reveal a fresh path towards progress and purpose in the Age of Intelligence.
Perfect for readers of The Economist, the Financial Times, New Scientist, New Philosopher, Aeon and Wired — and for anyone seeking to broaden their perspective in an increasingly interconnected and complex world.
I Suffer Therefore I Am
In the West today, suffering has become a new sacred cow. Once a common feature of the human condition, it is now a special trait you can use to impress your contemporaries. It provides you with a borrowed identity, transforming you into an exceptional being who can show off on the public stage at little cost. Everyone flaunts their certificate of affliction, positioning themselves above their peers. Even those who are well-off and powerful seek to find a place in the aristocracy of the margins, creating new castes of the dispossessed at the expense of the truly unfortunate. Infused with bitterness, this cult of the victim glorifies the martyr figure and feeds into the passions of revenge and resentment. This is the message of our age: we are all victims and entitled to feel sorry for ourselves. The submissive humanity of Christianity and the arrogant humanity of modernity have now been replaced by a victimized humanity allergic to distress. Pampered, coddled, raised in fear and sensitivity, how will younger generations be able to confront the chaotic world that awaits them, marked by war, violence, terrorism and climate chaos? Who will teach them the courage to endure, to face setbacks head-on, without faltering in the face of misfortune?
A Psychoanalytic Approach to Refugee Mental Health
A Psychoanalytic Approach to Refugee Mental Health reflects on psychoanalytic work with vulnerable people during the refugee crisis. Chrysi Giannoulaki describes her work as a supervisor of groups of caregivers dealing with the mental health of refugees and occasionally as a psychiatrist of refugees in Moria, Lesvos, and in Athens. The book explores work with complex refugee cases that involve major economic, political, and social issues, with victims of sexual violence, and with unaccompanied minors. Exploring the potential of psychoanalytic theory of trauma and psychosis, clinical psychoanalytic thinking to foster integration, and tolerance of the extremely traumatized individual within networks of social relations, the book acts protectively against moments of xenophobia and polarization. A Psychoanalytic Approach to Refugee Mental Health will be essential reading for psychoanalytically informed mental health professionals, especially those working with refugees, asylum seekers, and vulnerable patients.

The Healing Power of Korean Letter Writing
Letters have been here all along, quietly influencing countless people in profound ways. They encourage, they bring happiness, while to some they even provide the will to keep on living.
Geulwoll is a Korean word for 'letter'. It is also the name of a small, unassuming letter shop, located on the third floor of a shabby building in the bustling heart of Seoul. People visit from all over to write and send letters to loved ones - and to strangers.
————-
Everyone likes letters. One of their charms is that we can't see what's inside right away: there's an anticipation in unsealing the mysteries held within.
In The Healing Power of Korean Letter Writing, Juhee Mun reveals the lost art of the handwritten letter: how it can ground and centre us, improve and repair our relationships with others and foster a culture of contemplation, reflection and togetherness.
This book is not about rules or right answers for writing letters. It is about embracing the power of what happens when you choose to carve out the time to write them.
?ROXY MUSIC
Roxy Music - Then Out Of the Blue… tells the story of the bands career, giving dates and a timeline to their events. The birth of Roxy Music just before 1971 upto 1976 including Bryan Ferry's early solo career.A ?Who? What? Why? Where? When? Chronology of all their dates, places and times.?“I've got a favourite songwriter and band in England called Roxy Music with a character called Bryan Ferry who I think is probably spearheading some of the best music that has come out of England in years.” David Bowie.“That was a band that broke so many barriers. They were poncy, pontificating, absurd, over melodramatic and absolutely adorably excellent.” John Lydon - Sex Pistols / Public Image Limited.
A Pocket Philosophical Dictionary
''What can you say to a man who tells you he prefers obeying God rather than men, and that as a result he''s certain he''ll go to heaven if he cuts your throat?''Voltaire''s Pocket Philosophical Dictionary, first published in 1764, is a major work of the European Enlightenment. It is also a highly entertaining book: this is no ''dictionary'' in the ordinary sense, nor does it treat ''philosophy'' in the modern meaning of the term. It consists of a sequence of short essays or articles, arranged in alphabetical order, and covering everything from Apocalypse and Atheism to Tolerance and Tyranny. The unifying thread of these articles is Voltaire''s critique of established religion: ridicule of established dogma, attacks on superstition, and pleas for toleration. Witty and ironic, this is very much a work of combat, part of Voltaire''s high-profile political struggle in the 1760s to defend the victims of religious and political intolerance. This new translation is based on the definitive French text, and reprints the edition that provoked widespread controversy and condemnation. In his Introduction Nicholas Cronk considers the work''s continuing relevance to modern debates about religious intolerance and its consequences. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
Élet ADHD-val
Az ADHD-val élőkre gyakran pirítanak rá azzal, hogy "Igyekezz jobban!" vagy "Szedd össze magad!", pedig ezek a "jótanácsok" nem igazán segítenek. Jessica McCabe, író, színésznő és youtuber, az Élet ADHD-val című kötet szerzője leplezetlen őszinteséggel mutatja be saját példáján keresztül, milyen ADHD-val élni. A könyvből megtudhatjuk, milyen hatással van az ADHD a mindennapi életre, milyen szerepe van ebben a végrehajtó funkciók károsodásának, a figyelemszabályozási nehézségeknek, vagy éppen az elutasításra való érzékenységnek. Megismerhetjük azokat a módszereket és technikákat, amelyek élhetőbbé tették a szerző életét: a How to ADHD nevű online közösség tagjaitól származó idézetek, a jól áttekinthető fejezetek és a neurodivergens olvasóra szabott kiemelt szövegrészek segíteni fognak az érintetteknek abban, hogyan alakítsák ki hatékonyabban a környezetüket, a mindennapi rutinjaikat és hogyan tehetik szervezettebbé az életüket. A szerzőnő véleménye szerint kulcsfontosságú, hogy ne akarjunk küzdeni a természetes adottságaink ellen. A neurotipikus agy számára berendezett világban akkor képesek a neurodivergens aggyal rendelkezők is sikerrel boldogulni, ha próbálják megérteni az agyuk sajátos működését. A cél az, hogy ne ellene dolgozzanak, hanem tanulják meg, hogyan tudnak együttműködni vele.

Autorita věřícího
Máme snad autoritu, o níž nemáme tušení? Autoritu, kterou jsme doposud neobjevili a kterou nepoužíváme? To jsou otázky, které si Hagin často kladl již jako mladý kazatel. V knize Autorita věřícího říká: „Tu a tam jsem zahlédl letmý záblesk duchovní autority. Stejně jako všichni ostatní jsem na ni čas od času narazil a uplatňoval ji, aniž bych rozuměl tomu, co vlastně přesně dělám.
Na základě svého studia jsem došel k závěru, že jako Církev máme na zemi autoritu, o jejíž existenci nikdo z nás doposud neměl tušení. Někteří z nás se k ní tak tak přiblížili, ale než se Ježíš znovu vrátí, bude tu již celý zástup věřících, kteří povstanou v autoritě, která jim náleží… a díky tomu budou schopni vykonat dílo, které pro ně Bůh připravil.
V této knize také objevíte:
• Pavlovy modlitby
• Co je to autorita
• Jak zrušit ďáblovu moc
• Boží zbroj
• Jak uplatňovat autoritu v Kristu
Partyzánské otazníky aneb co ukryla válka
Publikace Partyzánské otazníky aneb co ukryla válka se soustřeďuje na vyvrcholení partyzánské činnosti v Protektorátu Čechy a Morava během posledních měsíců druhé světové války v Evropě. Závěrečný díl knižní trilogie není ani monotematický, ani obsahově tolik sevřený jako publikace předchozí. Přináší řadu krátkých, informačně nabitých kapitol, které rámují příběh partyzánských skupin na Moravě v období jejich vrcholné činnosti, tj. od porážky Slovenského národního povstání do českého povstání v květnu 1945. Některé z příběhů nebyly záměrně zařazeny do prvních dílů, některé vykrystalizovaly až na základě studia archivního materiálu poté. V každém případě je jejich zveřejnění přínosem v interpretaci problematiky partyzánského hnutí v protektorátu jako takovém. Toto téma je ostatně historiky stále pomíjeno a přehlíženo, stejně jako problematika domácího komunistického odboje. Střípky příběhů, které jsou obsaženy v publikaci Partyzánské otazníky aneb co ukryla válka dokreslují původní načrtnuté příběhy, zasazují je do pevnějšího rámce – a to vše na pozadí dramatických posledních měsíců druhé světové války, kdy partyzánské hnutí dosáhlo co do počtu aktivních skupin i co do počtu jejich bojových střetů s nepřítelem, destrukcí a sabotáží absolutního vrcholu. Kniha obsahuje odkazy na archivní materiály, bohatou fotografickou dokumentaci (cca 85 fotografií), seznam zkratek, odkazy na použité prameny a literaturu. V knize jsou zaznamenány i autentické výpovědi, dnes již zemřelých účastníků uvedených akcí. Kniha je volným pokračováním knih Partyzánská odysea a osud Věry Pilařové (2012) a Partyzáni Vysočiny a krvavý konec války (2015). Kniha prošla jazykovou úpravou a odbornou recenzí historikem PhDr. J. B. Uhlířem, Ph.D., z Prahy.

How the United States Would Fight China
A stark warning: Washington is at real risk of strategic defeat in any war with China.This book dissects precisely how the United States imagines fighting the People''s Republic of China, and why it risks failing. Franz-Stefan Gady contends that the US military approach to a potential conflict over Taiwan is unlikely to succeed, relying heavily on both rapidly established information superiority and a decisive victory. This may increase the threat of nuclear escalation between the world''s only superpowers.The more likely scenario is a prolonged war of attrition across land, sea, air, space and cyberspace. America''s society, armed forces and industrial capacity are ill-prepared for this--a deficiency stemming from a military culture that prioritises advanced technology over mass, and from a lack of public or political will for the sacrifices required by such a conflict.Gady''s superb research and analysis, based on US doctrine, force structure and general ''ways of war'', reveal the significant risks to the United States in a potential conflict with China, whether in the 2020s or 2030s.
Up the Youth Club
‘Youth clubs have always existed. They always will, because there will always be young people. How we care for our youth, and what we owe them, is a question for all of us.’In Up the Youth Club, Emma Warren maps the shifting story of youth clubs in the UK and Northern Ireland, from factory workers in Victorian Boys’ and Girls’ clubs to renegade self-emancipatory spaces in the 1970s and the music-generating youth clubs of more recent decades. With a mixed lineage in church evangelism, the patronage of the upper classes, grassroots’ DIY, and erratic state funding, the youth club has had a huge, yet almost invisible, effect on music, sport, culture and society.Arguing that we cannot advocate for what we do not understand, Warren positions youth clubs as a kind of engine room – from the famous success stories to come out of their doors, such as The Specials or Stormzy, to the untold stories of young people finding shelter, sustenance and stimulation for over a century – and why their dwindling numbers, largely due to austerity and funding cuts, is of serious concern for us all.With this impassioned history, Warren invites us to pick up the torch and play an active part in protecting and re-igniting this vital part of UK society.
Upon A White Horse
The prehistoric sites of Britain and Ireland are places of wonder and wondering. Who made these structures? What did they mean to them? And what do they mean to us now?Bestselling author Peter Ross journeys from midwinter at Stonehenge to midsummer at Sycamore Gap. Along the way he encounters bog bodies in Dublin, a wooden goddess in Edinburgh and a chalk giant in Dorset. He asks what it is like to live within the great stone circle at Avebury, what rituals occurred in an Anglesey tomb and what draws volunteers to care for the Uffington White Horse.These objects and structures speak of the long human story. They offer the comfort of recognition and the pleasure of mystery. There is something about ancient places that fills a hollow in our souls.Upon A White Horse is a celebration of landscape and people - and all that is beautiful, strange and old.PRAISE FOR STEEPLE CHASING:''A delicious treat'' - Financial Times''A charming odyssey'' - The Times''Lovely, lyrical, whimsical, elegiac'' - TLS''Engaging'' - New Statesman''A wonderful book'' - Daily Telegraph
