The Sweaty Startup
If you ask the average person who an entrepreneur is, they'll probably say people like Steve Jobs, Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg. But the truth is, you don't need to know how to code or raise VC money to start a business. There are hundreds of millions of small business owners globally, with most creating simple, straightforward services that customers need.
Nick Huber, founder of The Sweaty Startup and several million-dollar businesses, challenges the prevailing Silicon Valley wisdom by demonstrating that success as a small business owner is based on the essential principle of doing common things uncommonly well. In The Sweaty Startup, Nick offers readers the simplest, easiest, and lowest-risk path to reclaiming entrepreneurship, generating value, and forging a new path to get ahead on their own terms. By returning to the most foundational business tactics, this book is a refreshing burst of clarity and simplicity in a world that's obsessed with technology startups, the suffocating squeeze of digital innovation, and the elusive lure of billion-dollar payouts.
Filled to the brim with practical insights, inspiring real-life stories, and actionable advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, Nick will reveal how to create a business that succeeds on the most essential level: making money, consistently and predictably over the long term. His book will redefine entrepreneurship and become the go-to handbook for years to come.
Holmes a Moriarty
Nová kriminálna záhada Sherlocka Holmesa.
Píše sa rok 1889 a Sherlock Holmes s doktorom Watsonom sú najatí mladým hercom, aby vyšetrili podivný prípad. Na jeho divadelné predstavenia totiž chodia tí istí diváci, no vždy v inom prestrojení. Môže to byť azda predzvesť niečoho zlovestného?
Medzitým sa Holmesov úhlavný nepriateľ profesor Moriarty a jeho strážca Moran zapletajú do vraždy vodcu gangu. Teraz unikajú pred políciou a zároveň sa snažia zistiť, kto za tým všetkým stojí. Počas vyšetrovania sa však pripletú do cesty Holmesovi a Watsonovi a netrvá dlho, kým si všetci štyria uvedomia, že sú terčom tej istej osoby. Ich životy sú v ohrození, a tak musia uzavrieť neľahké spojenectvo. Stopy ich zavedú do hotela vo Švajčiarsku k sprisahaniu, ktoré je omnoho väčšie, než si dokázali predstaviť. Komu môžu veriť a kto z nich nakoniec prežije?

Za vším hledej pivo
Víte, jak pivo formovalo kulturu a svět kolem nás?
Láska k pivu ovlivňuje lidstvo už 13 000 let. Kněží ho využívali při náboženských obřadech, sloužilo jako platidlo pro dělníky při stavbě pyramid. Také jako bezpečný zdroj tekutin v době, kdy pít vodu znamenalo smrt. I první lednička na světě byla sestrojena právě kvůli pivu. Pivo pomohlo objevit bakterie a pivovarské kvasnice možná jednou dokážou vyřešit změnu klimatu.
V této knize se dozvíte, jak touha po dokonale načepovaném půllitru ovlivnila vývoj civilizací, vědecké objevy i politická rozhodnutí.
Vydejte se do slavných pivních destinací – na mnichovský Oktoberfest, do legendární laboratoře Carlsbergu či do St. Louis, domova Budweiseru.
Hříšná dohoda
Svatba má být tím nejšťastnějším dnem v životě, ne dnem, kdy zjistíte, že váš nastávající je nevěrný zmetek.
Při zoufalém útěku od oltáře mě zachytí silné ruce. Škoda, že patří úhlavnímu nepříteli mého ex – Oliveru Deubelovi. Je bohatý a mocný, tenhle muž je ztělesněný hřích. A nejvíc mě vytáčí, že je nejen arogantní a panovačný, ale i naprosto neodolatelný.
Když se můj svatební skandál stane virálním hitem na internetu a mně navíc hrozí vyhoštění ze země, Oliver mi nabídne pomoc – pokud spolu zničíme mého bývalého snoubence, on mi pomůže získat vízum. Podmínka? Musím se k němu nastěhovat a předstírat, že jsme spolu.
Nejradši bych se mu vysmála do obličeje, ale zjišťuji, jak krutý a nemilosrdný dokáže být. A tak se rozhodnu mu to oplatit tím, že mu udělám ze života peklo. Jenže on na to reaguje tím, že je... laskavý.
Pomalu ale jistě se hranice mezi tím, co je skutečné, a tím, co je předstírané, stírají.
Jenže Oliver není žádný Romeo a jen blázen by se do něj zamiloval.
Bohužel se obávám, že tím bláznem budu možná já.

The Only Cure
'A scholarly masterpiece, written by the world's greatest living authority on Freud . . . There is so much to be learned in these pages'
KARL J. FRISTON, the world's most cited neuroscientist
Once dismissed as unscientific, psychoanalytic therapy is proving to be among our most effective medical treatments of any kind - outperforming psychiatric drugs and rivalling vaccines in its power to prevent and heal. Why does it work so well?
Perhaps because one of the most controversial figures in psychology was right all along. Neuroscience now confirms much of what Sigmund Freud conjectured over a century ago: our deepest struggles stem, not from chemical imbalances, but from buried memories and unconscious conflicts that no pill can touch.
Using enthralling case studies and cutting-edge brain science, pioneering neuroscientist Mark Solms makes the case that psychoanalysis should resume its position as our master theory of the mind. Yet modern research also reveals where Freud got important things wrong. Could correcting these errors make therapy even more effective?
As psychiatric diagnoses soar and standard treatments continue to fail many patients, The Only Cure offers a revolutionary hope: a real science of healing, rooted in the radical idea that our suffering arises from truths we haven't yet faced.
The Art of Clear Thinking
Based on a career of making high-stakes, split-second decisions as a U.S. fighter pilot, The Art of Clear Thinking teaches readers to apply Hasard Lee''s combat-tested techniques in everyday life.
The training to become a fighter pilot is among the most competitive and difficult in the world with fewer than one in a thousand succeeding. Pushing a cutting-edge jet to its limits at over 1,000 mph means that every split-second decision can have catastrophic consequences. This extreme environment has forged a group of warriors who for the last fifty years have been considered at the apex of decision-making theory and practice.
In The Art of Clear Thinking, Hasard Lee distills what he’s learned during his career flying some of the Air Force’s most advanced aircraft. With gripping firsthand accounts from his time as a fighter pilot and fascinating turning points throughout history, Hasard reveals powerful decision-making principles that can be used in business and in life, including:
• HOW TO LEARN BETTER AND FASTER
• CULTIVATING MENTAL TOUGHNESS
• DEVELOPING THE SKILLS TO QUICKLY ASSESS, CHOOSE, AND EXECUTE
• AND MUCH, MUCH MORE
Hasard has used and taught these techniques across the full spectrum of human endeavors and proven their effectiveness in both the cockpit and the boardroom. Those who have already benefited include CEO’s, astronauts, CIA agents, students, parents, and many others. The Art of Clear Thinking is a book that will change how you interact with the world around you.

The North Pole
‘Extraordinary’ ANNE APPLEBAUM‘Thrilling . . . a record of an infatuation’ TELEGRAPH ‘The book of a lifetime’ ELIF SHAFAK‘The North Pole proves to be the perfect subject for him’ MICHAEL PALIN''Heart-catching . . . fabulous'' OBSERVER ‘A beautiful book’ ALAIN DE BOTTONThe epic adventure story of humanity’s obsession with the North Pole, from Norwegian explorer Erling Kagge who travelled there in 1990Throughout recorded human time, few places on Earth have inspired as much fascination as the North Pole. This is an otherworldly place where the sun rises and stays aloft for six whole months before setting, plunging the expanse of ice and water into darkness for half a year.Foot-stepping alongside Erling Kagge, who ventured to the North Pole in the spring of 1990, we hear the story of the North Pole as never told before. From Herodotus who first wondered what the northernmost point of our planet might be like, to the intrepid early cartographers who mapped the world, and the legendary expeditions led by Fridtjof Nansen and Robert Peary – the first polar explorer global celebrities – who were in the grip of a dangerous obsession to get to the North Pole first. What emerges is a new history of the world, spanning thousands of years, as seen from the ‘silver-shining vacantness’ of the North Pole.Blending memories from Kagge’s own 1990 trip with this epic history, The North Pole is an adventure story, a book about enacting hidden human dreams, about difficult fathers and their difficult sons, and a psychological record of what it means to keep putting one foot in front of the other in the face of adversity. It is for anyone who’s gazed out at the horizon – and wondered what happens if you just keep walking.''As an explorer Erling Kagge is world class; as a writer he is equally gifted’ RANULPH FIENNES
All or Nothing
"He is FAKE NEWS, a total LOSER, and no one should waste their time or money in buying this boring and obviously fictitious book!" Donald Trump, President of the United States"Gripping-a veritable harvest of slime, sycophancy and sleaze that tells the story of Trump 2.0, an aggrieved pugilist waging a ''life or death'' campaign." New York Times"Michael Wolff... the shrewdest and most colourful chronicler of the Trump years," Sunday TimesAll or Nothing is the final chapter in Wolff''s Fire and Fury series. With extraordinary behind-the-scenes access, it follows every turn of Donald Trump''s third presidential campaign. In disgrace after the January 6 attack on the Capitol and sent into exile, Trump immediately sputters back to life. To the shock of the Republican Party leadership, the Trump base has not abandoned him. Hardly a year on, he is as strong as any challenger has ever been. The American establishment is stunned by his comeback and determined to stop it and hold him accountable for his abuses of law and power. Equally, he has vowed retribution on anyone who tries to stand in his way. The 2024 presidential race is elemental: the system breaks Donald Trump or Donald Trump breaks the system.Michael Wolff tells this story from inside the Trump campaign. Through the sources he has cultivated over his ten years of writing about Donald Trump, including people who are with Trump on a daily basis, as well as his own first-hand reporting, we get a nearly moment-by-moment picture of the pendulum mood swings, the casual cruelties, the demands for obeisance, the preternatural resolve or otherworldly levels of denial, and the certain flashes of showman genius of the new president.Praise for Fire and Fury, Siege and Landslide"A book to shake America to its foundations" TheGuardian"Cruel, unforgiving, muckracking, scandalous. I couldn''t stop reading it." The Telegraph"Hilarious and frightening, and often reads like a Hollywood gossip column" Financial Times"Smart, vivid and intrepid," The New York Times

The Myth of American Idealism
The land of the free. The home of the brave. But what has America achieved in the aim of 'spreading democracy' - except wreak havoc across the globe and establish a reckless foreign policy that serves the interest of few and has endangered all too many?
In this timely book, Noam Chomsky writing with Nathan J. Robinson, vividly traces America's pursuit of global domination - from Washington's role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan - offering an incisive critique of the self-serving myths that dominant elites in the United States continue to push.
Thorough, urgent and provocative, The Myth of American Idealism offers a highly readable entry to the conclusions Noam Chomsky has come to after a lifetime of thought and activism.
The Hidden Globe
‘This book did nothing less than make me re-see the world . . . Original, and very clever’ – Sathnam Sanghera, author of EmpirelandBorders draw one map of the world; money draws another. A journalist’s riveting account exposes a parallel universe exempt from the laws of the land, and how the wealthy and powerful benefit from it. The map of the globe shows the world we think we know: sovereign nations that grant and restrict their citizens’ rights. Beneath, above, and tucked inside its neatly delineated borders, however, a parallel universe has been engineered into existence, consisting of thousands of extraterritorial zones that operate largely autonomously, increasingly for the benefit of the wealthy and powerful. Atossa Abrahamian traces the rise of the hidden globe to thirteenth-century Switzerland, where poor cantons marketed the commodity they had – bodies, in the form of mercenary fighters. Following its evolution around the world, she reveals how prize-winning economists, eccentric theorists, visionary statesmen, and consultants masterminded its export in the form of free trade zones, flags of convenience, offshore detention centres where immigrants languish in limbo, and charter cities controlled by foreign governments and multinational corporations – and even into outer space, where tiny Luxembourg aspires to mining rights on asteroids. By mapping the hidden geography that decides who wins and who loses in this new global order – and how it might be otherwise – The Hidden Globe fascinates, enrages, and inspires. ‘Vivid, revelatory’ – The New Yorker ‘Atossa Abrahamian boldly renews our sense of reality and brilliantly illuminates our political impasse’ – Pankaj Mishra, author of The Age of Anger
