A Pocket Guide to Dr. Martens
Dr. Martens, the beloved British boot with its unmistakeable AirWair soles, is a symbol of subcultural style throughout the world, from punk to grunge, glam to goth.
In this illustrated guide, style writer Hannah Kane explores Dr. Martens' colourful history of rebellious self-expression. From its origins as a modest workwear boot to its status as one of the most iconic brands in modern culture, who are the people behind the evolution of DMs? And what are the styles that have made it such a mark of attitude and empowerment?
Accidentally Wedded to a Werewolf
A spoiled heiress.
A grumpy werewolf.
How could an accidental marriage possibly go wrong?
Welcome to Claw Haven, Alaska - where monsters go to find some peace and quiet …
Spoiled heiress Luna Stack is meant to be sipping mai tais on a beach. But when she crashes (literally) into Claw Haven in a snowstorm, no one is prepared for her to up-end everything.
Oliver Musgrove brought his werewolf pack to Claw Haven to hide. The last thing he needs is a magical mate-bond with Luna after both accidentally drinking a potion - someone who doesn't seem to understand the meaning of the word 'boundaries' and won't stop smiling, dammit.
Unfortunately, no matter how much Oliver wants to keep his distance from Luna, the bond keeps pulling them back together. Can they break the bond for good? Or will they give in to the magical spark between them?
The Stimulated Mind
We take care of our hearts and joints as we age - but what about our brains?
With people struggling to focus, and dementia and Alzheimer's on the rise, Dr Wood offers a bold, empowering message: our brains are not destined to decline. In fact, with the right stimulus, they can adapt, strengthen and even improve over time.
In THE STIMULATED MIND, Dr Wood introduces his science-backed '3-S Model' - Stimulation, Sleep and Nutrient Supply - as the foundation for lifelong brain health. Forget expensive supplements or rigid 'biohacks'. Instead, Dr Wood focuses on the everyday factors that truly matter: how we eat, move, sleep, connect with others and handle stress.
Blending cutting-edge neuroscience with his work coaching elite athletes and professionals, Dr Wood offers a deeply practical, optimistic roadmap for cognitive longevity - helping us not just protect our brains from decline, but expand our mental capacity as we age.
Down by the River
Book 3 in the Grace Valley series. Before there was Virgin River, there was Grace Valley. The trilogy by #1 NYT bestselling author Robyn Carr is the prequel series to Virgin River. Grace Valley is a town in the same area as Virgin River and is referenced frequently in the Virgin River books and in the #1 Netflix series. For those who love Virgin River, the Grace Valley trilogy will be just as appealing. These books were first published in MMP format in 2009 and haven't been reissued in print since. In the peaceful town of Grace Valley, neighbors are like family—and just as meddlesome, too. June Hudson is the town's doctor, a caring, capable woman who now has a bit of explaining to do. People are beginning to notice the bloom in her cheeks—and the swell of her belly. Happily, DEA agent Jim Post is back in June's arms for good, newly retired from undercover work and ready for new beginnings here in Grace Valley. Expecting the unexpected is a way of life in Grace Valley, and the community is overflowing with gossip right now. Who is the secret paramour June's aunt Myrna is hiding? Does the town's poker-playing pastor have too many aces up his sleeve? But when dangers, from man and nature, rise up with a vengeance to threaten June and the town, this community pulls together and shows what it's made of. And Jim discovers the true meaning of happiness here in Grace Valley: there really is no place like home.

The Names
It is 1987, and in the aftermath of a great storm, Cora sets out with her nine-year-old daughter to register the birth of her son. Her husband intends for her to follow a long-standing family tradition and call the baby after him. But when faced with the decision, Cora hesitates. Going against his wishes is a risk that will have consequences, but is it right for her child to inherit his name from generations of domineering men? The choice she makes in this moment will shape the course of their lives.
Seven years later, her son is Bear, a name chosen by his sister, and one that will prove as cataclysmic as the storm from which it emerged. Or he is Julian, the name his mother set her heart on, believing it will enable him to become his own person. Or he is Gordon, named after his father and raised in his cruel image - but is there still a chance to break the mould?
Powerfully moving and full of hope, this is the story of three names, three versions of a life, and the infinite possibilities that a single decision can spark. It is the story of one family, and love's endless capacity to endure, no matter what fate has in store.
The Algorithm
Jonathan McNeill had already founded and sold six startups when Sheryl Sandberg introduced him to Elon Musk, who was looking for help at Tesla. McNeill was steeped in the lean principles that had made Toyota a global powerhouse principles focused on achieving efficiency and optimization by incrementally improving existing systems and processes. What he learned from Elon at Tesla was its antithesis, an approach that required radical rethinking to explode the status quo, attack complexity, and set seemingly unrealistic goals.
Elon called this five-step framework The Algorithm.

2. Delete every possible step in the process.
3. Simplify and optimize.
4. Accelerate cycle time.
5. Automate.
In this book, McNeill details this tremendously powerful set of tools, which brought Tesla from a production crisis that threatened to derail it to a period of hypergrowth.
During his tenure, revenue boomed from $2B to $20B in just 30 months. Since his departure from Tesla, McNeill has used The Algorithm in every enterprise he has worked with to supercharge speed, efficiency, innovation, and growth. Featuring case studies from Tesla and SpaceX, as well as from Lululemon, GM, and companies of various sizes across industries, he reveals how any business can do the same and achieve the unimaginable.

Jak jednat s rozhněvanými lidmi
Okolnosti, během nichž se v běžném životě setkáváme s rozzlobenými jedinci, jsou dvojího typu. Může jít o jednorázové situace, kdy se na nás rozčílí někdo cizí, anebo se jedná o jedince se vznětlivou povahou, který má v našem životě pevné místo – nadřízený, životní partner, sourozenec, rodič nebo i potomek. Kniha vám pomůže takovýmto lidem lépe porozumět a komunikovat s nimi tak, aby to bylo přínosné a zbytečně vás to nevyčerpávalo.
Existuje rozdíl mezi hněvem a agresí. Osoby, s nimiž komunikujete a které jsou rozzlobené, možná nejsou vůči vám (nebo jiným osobám) útočné, ale vy se v jejich přítomnosti nemusíte cítit dobře. Je dobré si uvědomit, že hněv může být nejen stav, ale i povahová vlastnost. A také to, že prchliví lidé nemusí být nutně zlí.
První část knihy se zaměřuje na porozumění lidem, kteří prožívají hněv. Autor se v ní zabývá různými typy osobnosti, ale i biologickými faktory, emočním vývojem, šířením emocí a myšlenkovými vzorci. Každá kapitola pak přináší praktické rady.
Ve druhé části najdete deset konkrétních postupů pro efektivní zvládání situací s rozzlobenými lidmi:
1. Jak zjistit, co vy opravdu chcete
2. Jak si zachovat klid a vyrovnanost
3. Jak rozpoznat různé podoby hněvu
4. Jak porozumět hněvu z pohledu druhé osoby
5. Jak poznat, kdy je něčí hněv oprávněný
6. Jak jednat s těmi, kteří nekomunikují
7. Jak účinně zvládat hněv v online prostředí
8. Jak se vyhnout osobním útokům
9. Jak poznat, kdy je čas se stáhnout
10. Jak kombinovat různé přístupy
Všechno dokreslují příklady z reálného života
