Why do some of us change for the better while others seem to get stuck? Behavioural coach Eric Zimmer has been asking himself this question for years and in this, his debut book, he shares how forming healthy habits is not enough – we need to cultivate wise habits to be applied day by day.When Eric found himself homeless, addicted and facing prison in his 20s, he developed a system of small steps that began to lead him towards lasting health. Over time, he has refined these steps into a method that he has shared with thousands of people through his coaching and chart-topping podcast, The One You Feed.How A Little Becomes A Lot brings together Eric’s research and experience to offer a framework to help improve the lives of even those among us who feel stuck and cynical about whether change is even possible in the first place. Through four simple steps – Remember, Focus, Feel and Stick – this book helps you make the small changes that will make a big difference in your life.

What if the biggest threat to your relationship isn’t infidelity, but instead is your next credit card bill? You can stop arguing and learn how to talk about money. Disagreements about money can quietly erode trust and connection in a relationship, often becoming a major source of stress and even separation. When partners bring different histories, attitudes, and beliefs about money to the table, conflict can escalate quickly.

Her approach helps partners communicate effectively, reduce conflict, and build a stronger, more harmonious relationship.
William Burrell
In 1944, Glasgow received one of the greatest gifts ever made to any city in the world: a collection of over 6,000 artworks of many types spanning centuries and civilisations. The benefactors were Glasgow-born shipping magnate Sir William Burrell and Constance, Lady Burrell. Burrell’s business success him to amass an extraordinary collection, which he housed in the family home at Hutton Castle in the Scottish borders. When he decided to leave the collection to the nation, he considered donating it to London-based galleries before deciding on Glasgow Corporation, together with the residue of his estate to provide a suitable building. It was many years before the right location was found, and The Burrell Collection finally opened in 1983. This new biography is based on recent research, full access to the Burrell archive and in-depth knowledge of the collection. Sir William was a complicated and private man who shunned publicity, adored his wife, but had a tumultuous relationship with his daughter. In politics Conservative, he campaigned for better housing conditions as long as this didn’t cause further expense to the taxpayer. The authors take a candid and considered view of who William Burrell the man was, what sparked his passion for collecting, and what his gift continues to mean to the city.
Krkonošští rodáci vzpomínají 6
Krkonoše si lidé často spojují jen s krajinou, která je však i krajinou paměti. Je to svět, do kterého se po staletí otiskovala práce, jazyk, víra, řemeslo i každodenní starosti. A právě proto má smysl chránit vedle přírodních hodnot i paměť místních lidí.
V šestém díle Krkonošští rodáci vzpomínají najdeme životní příběh Franze Brauna z Rýchor, který si jako kluk pamatuje, jak v roce 1938 na jejich louce stavěli čeští vojáci obranné bunkry. Přečtete si muzikantské historky trumpetisty Karla Pičmana, který mimo jiné s kapelou vítal v květnu 1945 Rudou armádu nebo nepříliš veselý odchod rodiny paní Helgy Schulze-Fischer z rodných Vítkovic.
Kniha navazuje na dlouhodobou práci Libora Duška – badatele a autora, který umí dějiny vyprávět tak, aby nezůstaly jen v archivech. Jeho síla je v umění ptát se, naslouchat a zpracovat vzpomínky zpovídaného pamětníka. Zároveň nejde o pouhé vzpomínání. Jeho profesní svět se opírá o poctivou práci s prameny, místem a kontextem.
Stíny Kasejovicka 1
Kasejovice jsou malé město ležící na pomezí jižních a západních Čech. Jeho historická zákoutí ukrývají celou řadu zajímavých a zapomenutých příběhů. Kniha Stíny Kasejovicka na ně nahlíží především optikou místních mužů zákona. Čtenář se tak dostane nejen mezi násilníky, zloděje a lidi žijící na okraji společnosti, ale bude i svědkem živelních katastrof, bizarních konfliktů mezi katolíky a protestanty či politického pletichaření na místní radnici. To vše rámují „velké“ dějiny, které do dění na Kasejovicku mnohdy nemilosrdně zasáhnou. V závěrečné části se čtenář seznámí s životními osudy jednotlivých četníků a městských strážníků, v nichž se odráží dramatičnost 20. století. Nahlédne tak mezi železnobrodské odbojáře, bude svědkem poválečných excesů na Rožmitálsku a setká se s operací Státní bezpečnosti, nesoucí krycí název „Akce Lichnice“.
Smrt parašutisty Bohuslava Kouby
Rotný Bohuslav Kouba byl velitelem výsadku BIOSCOP vysazeného po půlnoci na úterý 28. dubna 1942 nedaleko od osady Požáry na Křivoklátsku. Krátce po seskoku se výsadek rozdělil a oba podřízení, četař aspirant Josef Bublík a četař Jan Hrubý následně zahynuli hrdinskou smrtí v pravoslavném chrámu svatého Cyrila a Metoděje v Resslově ulici v Praze spolu s dalšími pěti parašutisty. Rotný Kouba se odebral za účelem navázání kontaktu s odbojáři na četnickou stanici Kutná Hora. Zde jej však před jeho příchodem hledalo gestapo. Poté, co se dostal do bezvýchodné situace, aby nevyzradil své spolupracovníky a neohrozil patnáct přítomných četníků a jejich rodiny, ukončil svůj život požitím letální tablety.
Open Socrates
Socrates has been hiding in plain sight. We call him the father of Western philosophy, but what exactly are his philosophical views? He is famous for his humility, but readers often find him arrogant and condescending. We parrot his claim that 'the unexamined life is not worth living,' yet take no steps to live examined ones. We know that he was tried, convicted, and executed for 'corrupting the youth,' but freely assign Socratic dialogues to today's youths, to introduce them to philosophy. We've lost sight of what made him so dangerous. In Open Socrates, acclaimed philosopher Agnes Callard recovers the radical energy at the centre of Socrates' thought and shows why it is still the way to a good life.
Callard draws our attention to Socrates' startling discovery that we don't know how to ask ourselves the most important questions- about how we should live, and how we might change. Before a person even has a chance to reflect, their bodily desires or the forces of social conformity have already answered on their behalf. To ask the most important questions, we need help. Callard argues that the true ambition of the famous "Socratic method" is to reveal what one human being can be to another. You can use another person in many ways-for survival, for pleasure, for comfort- but you are engaging them to the fullest when you call on them to help answer your questions and challenge your answers.
Here Callard shows that Socrates' method allows us to make progress in thinking about how to manage romantic love, how to confront one's own death, and how to approach politics. In the process, she gives us nothing less than a new ethics to live by.

The Immunity Plan
The immune system is our most valuable resource, our first and most important line of defence, protecting us around the clock. It also determines how quickly we age, regulates our body weight and metabolism, and impacts our brain health. Yet modern life, with toxins, allergens, poor diet and imbalanced gut bacteria, places huge strain on it leading to a rise in immune issues and autoimmune conditions. But research shows that by removing these stressors and improving immunity through nutrition and lifestyle, we can transform long-term health.
In The Immunity Plan, leading nutritionist Kate Llewellyn-Waters unpacks the most robust science behind our immune system, from the role of hormones and the microbiome to the ways immunity differs between men and women. With practical advice, lifestyle strategies, and immunity-supporting recipes, this essential guide shows you how to strengthen your immune health, reduce inflammation, and protect against autoimmune disease.
This is the essential, accessible handbook for anyone who wants to understand their immune system and harness its power for a healthier life.
