According to Alan Fine, every one of us has the capacity for greatness. So what is it that s stopping us from reaching our true potential? The answer: too much information.Most people who want to get better at hitting golf shots, negotiating with clients, delivering presentations, or any field of endeavour - seek out new information. They read a book, take a class, employ an expert tutor. But as Alan Fine has learned from many years of coaching athletes and businesspeople, this outside-in approach often doesn t produce the results people want. More information becomes a distraction rather than a solution, and high performance remains elusive. Fortunately, there is a better way. Fine has developed and honed a unique inside-out approach to performance improvement which is not about gaining new knowledge, but instead about using the knowledge you already have. Through a simple four-step process, Fine shows how to remove the obstacles that get in the way of applying your existing skills to unlock your natural potential. No matter who you are or what you do, this book will help you get better.

How to Think is a contrarian treatise on why we re not as good at thinking as we assume - but how recovering this lost art can rescue our inner lives from the chaos of modern life.Most of us don t want to think, writes the American essayist Alan Jacobs. Thinking is trouble. It can force us out of familiar, comforting habits, and it can complicate our relationships with like-minded friends. Finally, thinking is slow, and that s a problem when our habits of consuming information (mostly online) leave us lost in the echo chamber of social media, where speed and factionalism trump accuracy and nuance.In this clever, witty book, Jacobs diagnoses the many forces that prevent thought - forces that have only worsened in the age of Twitter, such as alternative facts, and information overload. He also dispels the many myths we hold about what it means to think well. (For example: it s impossible to think for yourself. )Drawing on sources as far-flung as the novelist Marilynne Robinson, the basketball legend Wilt Chamberlain, the British philosopher John Stuart Mill and the Christian theologian C.S. Lewis, Jacobs digs into the nuts and bolts of the cognitive process, offering hope that each of us can reclaim our mental lives from the whirlpool of what now passes for public debate.After all, if we can learn to think together, perhaps we can learn to live together.

Audiokniha: Největší vášní jedenáctileté Flavie de Luce, nejmladší dcery tragicky ovdovělého britského aristokrata, je chemie. Zatím ji využívá především k líčení pastí na své nepřátelsky naladěné starší sestry, avšak brzy bude mít příležitost uplatnit své poznatky – zvláště pak o jedech – při vyšetřování zločinu. Jednoho dne najdou de Luceovi přede dveřmi svého domu mrtvého ptáka s poštovní známkou v zobáku, což Flaviina otce filatelistu velmi rozruší. Nedlouho poté vyslechne dívenka noční hádku mezi otcem a tajemným návštěvníkem a časně ráno pak najde na zahradě umírajícího muže, který jí těsně před smrtí pošeptá „vale“. Z vraždy je obviněn Flaviin otec a Flavia začne vyšetřovat na vlastní pěst, aby očistila jméno rodiny. Záhy nabude podezření, že současný zločin patrně nějak souvisí s dávnou děsivou smrtí jednoho z otcových učitelů… Malá, ale inteligentní a odvážná vypravěčka nás s nadhledem a nezřídka překvapivě pronikavou ironií zavede do prostředí anglického venkova padesátých let minulého století. Koláč s kapkou jedu kráčí úspěšně ve šlépějích klasických děl britské detektivní školy a ocení ho nepochybně každý milovník napínavých příběhů, a to bez rozdílu věku. ALAN BRADLEY (1938) Torontský rodák, vyrůstal v Cobourgu v Ontariu. Než v roce 1994 odešel do předčasného důchodu, aby se mohl věnovat psaní, byl pětadvacet let ředitelem oddělení televizní techniky v mediálním centru Saskatchewanské univerzity. Napsal řadu scénářů, povídek pro děti i pro dospělé a nespočet článků o umění a životním stylu pro kanadská periodika. Je spoluautorem publikace Ms. Holmes of Baker Street, která vyvolala značný ohlas. Dva roky nato vydal memoáry pod názvem The Shoebox Bible. Celosvětově jej však proslavily až detektivky, v nichž vystupuje geniální mladá britská vyšetřovatelka Flavia de Luce. Za první z nich, Koláč s kapkou jedu, získal v roce 2007 cenu Debut Dagger Award udělovanou Asociací autorů detektivek a amazon.com ji zařadil mezi desítku nejúspěšnějších žánrových titulů roku. Série se dočkala pěti pokračování, vychází ve třiceti devíti zemích a práva na její televizní adaptaci zakoupil oscarový producent a režisér Sam Mendes (Americká krása, Skyfall).

The Book On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are explores an unrecognised but mighty taboo - our tacit conspiracy to ignore who, or what, we really are. Alan Watts, key thinker of Western Zen Buddhism, explains how to reconsider our relationship with the world. We are in urgent need of a sense of our own existence, which is in accord with the physical facts and which overcomes our feeling of alienation from the universe.In The Book On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are, Alan Watts asks what causes the illusion of the self as a separate ego which confronts a universe of physical objects that are alien to it. Rather, a person s identity binds them to the physical universe, creating a relationship with their environment and other people. The separation of the self and the physical world leads to the misuse of technology and the attempt to violently subjugate man s natural environment, leading to its destruction.Watts urges against the idea that we are separate from the world. Nowhere is this idea more apparent than in the concept of cultural taboos. The biggest taboo of all is knowing who we really are behind the mask of our self as presented to the world.Through our focus on ourselves and the world as it affects us, we have developed narrowed perception. Alan Watts tells us how to open our eyes and see ourselves not as coming into the world but from it. In understanding the individual s real place in the universe, Watts presents a critique of Western culture and a healing alternative.

As featured in The New York Times, a valuable and artfully crafted guide to tending a naturalistic garden. From plantsman Kelly Norris, author of New Naturalism, comes a much-needed handbook to maintaining today’s natural gardens. Naturalistic plantings, overflowing with biodiverse communities of plants, are filling front and backyards around the globe with colorful blooms, easy-care plants, and wildlife habitat. But caring for a naturalistic garden is vastly different than caring for a traditional home landscape of carefully manicured plants separated by mulch and regularly primped and pruned. In Your Natural Garden, tending your garden properly means understanding its connection to the greater natural world and using garden care methods that mimic nature instead of controlling it.Page by page, you’re guided through all the seasons of a naturalistic garden’s life and the tasks and to-dos that come with each of them. Including how to:Encourage and establish complexity in a new gardenPromote growth and variation by letting your plants self propagateDetermine when and what to edit, and when it’s best to let chaos reinDecide if and when weeding is necessaryFoster the insects and other animals that rely on your plantsUnderstand succession in the naturalistic garden and why it’s important Know when it’s time to cut back your garden and how to do it rightVerdant photographs accompany the text throughout, offering examples of well-tended naturalistic plantings and the tasks that are needed to properly care for them.
