*THE INSTANT NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER**THE SENSATIONAL NEW ROYAL BIOGRAPHY FROM THE NO.1 BESTSELLING INVESTIGATIVE BIOGRAPHER, TOM BOWER*'Juicy... A Bower news bomb is always something of a publishing event' Tina Brown, Observer'Explosive' - The Times'A fascinating read' - Evening Standard'Sensational... A brutal, forensic takedown of the House of Sussex at its most fragile moment yet' The Daily Beast, The Royalist Podcast with Tom Sykes'The Royal Family's vulnerability was exposed... Treachery in the family was rarely rewarded - as Harry and Meghan realised. The Palace chose silence as its only option... Few could anticipate the endgame.'The British Crown is in crisis, with constitutional threats at home and abroad. Since their infamous 'Megxit' split from the Royal Family, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have dominated global headlines. Ferociously controversial, not least for demanding privacy while seeking the spotlight, the Sussexes have remained a subject of gripping fascination for both supporters and cynics alike. Both camps are united on one platform: what is the endgam? ighting to preserve their royal titles and privileges, In their attempts to create a Sussex brand the couple have fuelled bitter hostility. Accusations of disloyalty have been trumped by recriminations about dishonesty. Amid High Court battles with the government and the media, and the infamous publication of Spare, the Sussexes have reeled after successive Netflix flops and their doomed collaboration with Spotify - only to be ridiculed for Meghan's self-invention as a domestic goddess. At a landmark moment in royal history, the Sussexes' challenge to the British monarchy echoes worldwide. The fallout always threatens to be catastrophic. Just five years on from 'Megxit', can King Charles overcome the scandals that blight the family and limit the Sussexes' threat to the monarchy? Can the broken bonds between the Houses of Sussex and Windsor ever be repaired or will the King choose to strip them of their titles and banish them forever? The Sussexes are in a race against time to solve their predicament. With inimitable research and exclusive interviews from insiders, Britain's leading investigative biographer Tom Bower exposes the latest contortions in the explosive Royal saga of power and betrayal. 'Tom Bower is the Inspector Morse of investigative biographers, a fluent, phlegmatic story-teller and a master of intricacies.' Sunday Times

The Visit
"The lad is a bit like a stray dog. I keep an eye on him and throw him a few scraps. There are plenty of people in this town who'd just as soon drop him off in the wilderness and hope there's no scent to follow home. The problem is that Patrick could find his way out of any wilderness and they wouldn't like whatever starved thing came back."
Sergeant Jim Field feels a guilty paternalism for Patrick Hatten, a young man struggling to find a job, a life and a purpose in a small-town Wexford community. Both are used to being on the fringes but while Jim is a romantic with bad health and regret, Patrick is full of anger and action, and his actions could have devastating effects.

A Kingdom and a Village
Moscow stands at the centre of a nation comprising eleven percent of the globe’s landmass, eleven time zones and nearly one hundred and fifty million people, some thirteen million of whom live in the capital. A Kingdom and a Village vividly brings to life Russia’s heart and soul, tracing its transformation from a ‘big village’ into a metropolis of vast geopolitical import.
It is a stranger-than-fiction arc. The last century alone has featured invasions and battles, the destruction and reconstruction of sacred landmarks, and the collapse of the Soviet republic – not to mention the rise of an authoritarian leader who is a keen student of Russian history. Morrison reaches back to the city’s founding as a fortress on a river nearly a millennium ago. In the following centuries, any number of external forces – from Tatar Mongols and Swedes to Napoleon and Hitler – set their sights on Moscow, bolstering its self-conception as a glittering prize and site of perpetual defence and resurrection.
Understanding Moscow not only unlocks the spellbinding mysteries of Russia’s past, but also the grim logic of its present. A Kingdom and a Village is an essential guide to a people and a nation.
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

Štítná žláza a emoce
Tato unikátní publikace pojednává o souvislostech mezi štítnou žlázou a emocemi. Erudovaně, odborně, avšak zároveň způsobem fascinujícím i pro laika vysvětluje, jak přesně tato souvislost funguje a co to znamená pro pochopení nesmírně důležité funkce tohoto orgánu, jakož i problémů spojených s jejím narušeným fungováním.
Jean du Chazaud je zakladatelem takzvané endokrinopsychologie. Je přesvědčený, že lidské emoce jsou podmíněny naší hormonální rovnováhou, zatímco stres působí recipročně i na funkce štítné žlázy. Zdůrazňuje, že štítná žláza je žlázou emocí. Právě ona přijímá a řídí naše emoce a poté informuje mozek. Díky ní nám funguje inteligence, psychika je schopná se přizpůsobovat situacím, se kterými se setkáváme, a právě ona nás nutí vyjadřovat radost, smutek, hněv či strach.
Uvedené poznatky se mohou stát východiskem pro další zkoumání a také zdrojem naděje pro tisíce lidí, kteří trpí, protože jejich vnitřní poruchy a náhlé změny duševního stavu nejsou pochopeny.
Kromě jiného zde najdete podrobné pojednání o emocích z psychologického, lékařského i filozofického hlediska a také rozbor některých psychosomatických nemocí, jako je vysoký (nebo naopak nízký) krevní tlak, nemoci srdce, nebo dokonce závislosti.
