These Wilds Beyond Our Fences - Bayo Akomolafe

"Tackling some of the world''s most profound questions through the intimate lens of fatherhood, Bayo Akomolafe embarks on a journey of discovery as he maps the contours of the spaces between himself and his three-year-old daughter Alethea. Told as a series of letters to Alethea in a voice that is by turns poetic, vulnerable, and revelatory--but always engaging--this book describes the daily encounters between the author and his sprightly young daughter, and the failures and redemptions that arise in course of their life together. The book is about giving Alethea a bath, learning to brush her teeth, navigating her demands, concern about her fixation with hand-held devices, watching her refuse to cooperate with her dance instructor, and much more. It is also about the reflections and questions that run through and around their relationship. What does it mean to be a parent? What is our place in this world? Where is our home? Akomolafe''s narrative is urgent and unguarded as he discovers that something as commonplace as becoming a father is a cosmic event of unprecedented proportions. Using this realization as a touchstone, he is led to consider the strangeness of his own soul, to contemplate the myths and rituals of modernity, to ask questions about food and justice, to ponder what it means to be human, to evaluate what we can do about climate change, and to wonder what our collective yearnings for a better world tell us about ourselves. These Wilds Beyond our Fences is a passionate attempt to make sense ofour disconnection in a world where it is easy to feel untethered and lost. It is a father''s search for meaning, for a place of belonging, and for reassurance that the world will embrace and support our children once we are gone"--

Beyond CLIL - Coyle Do, Oliver Meyer

If education is to prepare learners for lifelong learning, there needs to be a shift towards deeper learning: a focus on transferable knowledge and problem-solving skills alongside the development of a positive or growth mindset. In this book, a follow up to CLIL, the authors review new developments in the understanding of the interface between language and learning, and propose an original new ''pluriliteracies'' approach which refines and develops current thinking in CLIL. It aims to facilitate deeper learning through an explicit focus on disciplinary literacies, guiding learners towards textual fluency, encouraging successful communication across cultures, and providing a key stepping-stone towards becoming responsible global citizens. It both provides strong theoretical grounding, and shows how to put that understanding into practise. Engaging and practical, this book will be invaluable to both academics and education practitioners, and will enable conventional classrooms to be transformed into deeper learning ecologies.

Benjamin Franklin's Last Bet - Michael Meyer

The incredible story of Benjamin Franklin’s parting gift to the working-class people of Boston and Philadelphia—a deathbed wager that captures the Founder’s American Dream and his lessons for our current, conflicted age.Benjamin Franklin was not a gambling man. But at the end of his illustrious life, the Founder allowed himself a final wager on the survival of the United States: a gift of two thousand pounds to Boston and Philadelphia, to be lent out to tradesmen over the next two centuries to jump-start their careers. Each loan would be repaid with interest over ten years. If all went according to Franklin’s inventive scheme, the accrued final payout in 1991 would be a windfall. In Benjamin Franklin’s Last Bet, Michael Meyer traces the evolution of these twin funds as they age alongside America itself, bankrolling woodworkers and silversmiths, trade schools and space races. Over time, Franklin’s wager was misused, neglected, and contested—but never wholly extinguished. With charm and inquisitive flair, Meyer shows how Franklin’s stake in the “leather-apron” class remains in play to this day, and offers an inspiring blueprint for prosperity in our modern era of growing wealth disparity and social divisions.

Signature in the Cell - Meyer Stephen C.

Named one of the top books of 2009 by the Times Literary Supplement (London), this controversial and compelling book from Dr. Stephen C. Meyer presents a convincing new case for intelligent design (ID), based on revolutionary discoveries in science and DNA. Along the way, Meyer argues that Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution as expounded in The Origin of Species did not, in fact, refute ID. If you enjoyed Francis Collins’s The Language of God, you’ll find much to ponder—about evolution, DNA, and intelligent design—in Signature in the Cell.

Badass Habits : Cultivate the Awareness, Boundaries, and Daily Upgrades You Need to Make Them Stick - Jen Sincerová

New York Times bestselling author Jen Sincero gets to the core of transformation: habits--breaking, making, understanding, and sticking with them like you've never stuck before. Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media. Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again--our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness, and our unconscious beliefs and fears. Badass Habits features Jen's trademark hilarious voice and offers a much-needed fresh take on the conventional wisdom and science that shape the optimism (or pessimism?) around the age-old topic of habits. The book includes enlightening interviews with people who've successfully strengthened their discipline backbones, new perspective on how to train our brains to become our best selves, and offers a simple, 21 day, step-by-step guide for ditching habits that don't serve us and developing the habits we deem most important. Habits shouldn't be impossible to reset--and with healthy boundaries, knowledge of--and permission to go after--our desires, and an easy to implement plan of action, we can make any new goal a joyful habit.

Ačkoli autorka není vystudovanou historičkou, pokusila se za pomoci archivních materiálů, dokumentů dosud nezveřejněných (například vlastního životopisu Konrada Meyera) i vzpomínek členů rodiny a pamětníků z řad obětí holokaustu sestavit životopisnou skicu Konrada Meyera a zároveň vylíčit své zážitky, zkušenosti a často velmi stísňující a zraňující pocity, které si během let svých bádání zapisovala. Kniha Bettiny Meyerové je pokusem vyrovnat se s historií nejen své rodiny, ale i s temnou etapou německých dějin, na níž se její dědeček významně podílel, aniž by nad tím až do konce svého života projevil byť jen sebemenší stín lítosti.

Lao-c' a cesta draka - Miriam Henke, Jérome Meyer-Bisch

Narození Lao-c' bylo ohlášeno příchodem komety. Tento mužík se stařeckými rysy, archivář na císařském dvoře, odhalil pomíjivost vědy. Když se přesvědčil o mravní zkaženosti moci, odvrátil se od ní a začal hledat pravou cestu k moudrosti. Miriam Henke, narozená v Německu, se věnovala studiím čínské literatury a dlouhou dobu cestovala po Asii. Žila v Paříži, kde vykonávala ušlechtilé překladatelské řemeslo, a nyní se vydává po stopách Lao-c' na Východ. Jérôme Meyer-Bisch pracuje ve svém pokoji v Paříži, ale žije v kuchyni. S nostalgií vzpomíná na svůj rodný Východ a útěchu nachází v kreslení a kysaném zelí. Jakožto barový filozof si osvojil heslo "Všechno má svůj konec, kromě klobásy, ta má dva", což je volná interpretace výroku Lao-c'.

Dílo a styl - Meyer Schapiro

Meyer Schapiro (23. 9. 1904, Litva - 3. 3. 1996, USA) byl jedním z nejvýznamnějších amerických historiků a teoretiků umění ve 20. století. Svou mnohostrannou erudicí, hloubkou pohledu a nezvykle širokým spektrem zájmů vytvořil předpoklady k prudkému rozmachu americké uměnovědy a vychoval množství úspěšných žáků, dále rozvíjejících jeho podněty. Vedle svých amerických učitelů Arthura K. Portera a Charlese R. Moreyho, se Schapiro ve svém díle odvolával zejména na názory hlavních představitelů vídeňské školy (Aloise Riegla, Franze Wickhoffa a Maxe Dvořáka), německých historiků umění (především Wilhelma Worringera a Wilhelma Pindera) a Francouze Henriho Focillona. Uplatňoval velmi otevřený, nedogmatický a někdy téměř experimentální způsob práce i výuky a tvůrčím způsobem se vyrovnával s aktuálními podněty z jiných oborů: současné literatury, filosofie (zvláště existencialismu a fenomenologie) a psychoanalýzy. Odmítal izolování stylových analýz od konkrétních dějinných situací, kritizoval ustrnutí v hermetické oblasti bez spojení se sociálními, politickými, ekonomickými a ideologickými zdroji.Čtenáři se dnes, v českém překladu poprvé, dostává do rukou obsáhlý průřez Schapirovým dílem, reprezentující velkou část jeho zájmového spektra. Studie o starším umění obsahují vedle ikonologických úvah z oblasti románského umění a umění rané nizozemské renesance také obsáhlou kritickou reinterpretaci knihy Sigmunda Freuda Vzpomínka z dětství Leonarda da Vinci. V části věnované novějšímu umění jsou zahrnuty studie o Courbetovi a lidovém umění, o Seuratovi a o Cézannových jablkách reflektující Schapirovy teorie sociálních a ekonomických aspektů uměleckého díla, zatímco ve stati o díle Pieta Mondriana se autor věnuje expresivním a intelektuálním kvalitám abstraktního stylu. V posledním oddílu jsou shromážděny práce metodologické, mezi nimiž obzvláště významné místo zaujímá studie Styl, v níž Schapiro shrnul dosavadní poznatky bádání o stylu a kriticky se vyrovnal se schematičností polaritních, cyklických i evolučních teorií.
