Jak mluvit o klimatické krizi s těmi, kdo se o ekologii nezajímají? Timothy Morton místo hory dat a sloganů nabízí filozofickou cestu na hranice lidského a nelidského světa. A během ní máme šanci nejen zachránit planetu, ale taky objevit vlastní spřízněnost s přírodou okolo. Timothy Morton je britský*á filozof*ka, jehož*jíž práce stojí na pomezí současné postantropocentrické filozofie a environmentálních studií. Patří ke klíčovým postavám takzvané objektově orientované ontologie, která mimo jiné boří tradiční hranice mezi lidským a nelidským světem i hierarchie bytí. Jako profesor*ka dlouhodobě působí na Rice University v Texasu a kromě ekologie nebo filozofie píše o umění, populární kultuře a literatuře. Vydal*a přes 18 knih, z nichž vzešla řada vlivných konceptů - kromě hyperobjektů, které Morton řeší v této knize, třeba temná ekologie. Jeho*jí práce meandruje mezi akademickou filozofií a populární esejistikou, spolupracoval*a s Björk, Pharrellem Williamsem nebo Olafurem Eliassonem.

To read Being Ecological is to be caught up in a brilliant display of intellectual pyrotechnics P.D.Smith, GuardianWhy is everything we think we know about ecology wrong?Is there really any difference between humans and nature ?Does this mean we even have a future?Don t care about ecology? This book is for you. Timothy Morton, who has been called Our most popular guide to the new epoch (Guardian), sets out to show us that whether we know it or not, we already have the capacity and the will to change the way we understand the place of humans in the world, and our very understanding of the term ecology . A cross-disciplinarian who has collaborated with everyone from Björk to Hans Ulrich Obrist, Morton is also a member of the object-oriented philosophy movement, a group of forward-looking thinkers who are grappling with modern-day notions of subjectivity and objectivity, while also offering fascinating new understandings of Heidegger and Kant. Calling the volume a book containing no ecological facts , Morton confronts the information dump fatigue of the digital age, and offers an invigorated approach to creating a liveable future.

An old teapot, used daily, can tell me more of my past than anything I recorded of it. Sylvia Townsend WarnerThere are many ways of telling the story of a life and how we ve got to where we are. The questions of why and how we think the way we do continues to preoccupy philosophers. In The Stuff of Life, Timothy Morton chooses the objects that have shaped and punctuated their life to tell the story of who they are and why they might think the way they do. These objects are things in the richest sense. They are beings, non-human beings, that have a presence and a force of their own. From the looming expanse of Battersea Power Station to a packet of anti-depressants and a cowboy suit, Morton explores why stuff matters and the life of these things have so powerfully impinged upon their own. Their realization, through a concealer stick, that they identify as non-binary reveals the strange and wonderful ways that objects can form our worlds.Part memoir, part philosophical exploration of the meaning of a life lived alongside and through other things, Morton asks us to think about the stuff, things, objects and buildings that have formed our realities and who we are and might be.

Audiokniha: Alžbeta z rodu Windsorovcov bola vždy mimoriadne plachá a snívala o pokojnom živote na vidieku, kde by si založila rodinu a starala sa o psy a kone. Osud to však zariadil inak. Následníčkou trónu sa stala po abdikácii svojho strýka kráľa Eduarda VIII. a po predčasnom skone svojho otca kráľa Juraja VI. Počas sedemdesiatich rokov svojho pôsobenia vo funkcii anglickej kráľovnej zažila nielen triumfy, ale čelila i nekonečnému radu prekážok a rodinných konfliktov. Bola vystavená náročným skúškam vytrvalosti a odvahy, no jej úsilie udržať monarchiu na poprednom mieste kultúrne, spoločensky a politicky bolo nezlomné. Neraz pritom narazila na odpor zvnútra samotnej inštitúcie aj zvnútra vlastnej rodiny, ktorá bola pod intenzívnym drobnohľadom médií. Prepieralo sa v nich všetko od údajnej nevery jej manžela, neúspešného manželstva jej sestry, tragickej smrti princeznej Diany až po nedávny odchod princa Harryho a Meghan z kráľovskej rodiny. Renomovaný životopisec Andrew Morton sa v tejto audioknihe podrobne venuje najdlhšie vládnucej britskej panovníčke a skúma vplyv, aký mala prakticky celú druhú polovicu minulého storočia na Britániu a na zvyšok sveta. Stála na čele národa, ktorý sa musel spamätať po ničivej druhej svetovej vojne a nájsť si novú cestu v rozporuplnom politickom prostredí súčasnosti. Vždy bola rezervovaná, no rozhodná. Toto je príbeh ženy neochvejnej sebadisciplíny, na ktorú budú ľudia dlho spomínať ako na matku a starú matku Veľkej Británie, a tiež ako na jednu z najväčších panovníčok modernej éry.

Social standing is everything in Regency England, and no one knows better than Miss Caroline Morton, the daughter of a disgraced earl, now gainfully employed as a lady’s companion—along with a sideline in sleuthing. But when she has a chance to claim what’s rightfully hers, the one obstacle in her way is a dangerous murder mystery . . .Miss Caroline has doubts when she receives an urgent invitation from a London law firm to discuss her late father’s estate. After all, the dishonored Earl of Morton died without a pound sterling to pass on to his two daughters. But while immersing herself in helping Mrs. Frogerton’s capricious daughter navigate the high social season, Caroline meets with a cagey lawyer, Mr. Smith, who shares life-altering news—the earl composed a second will, leaving behind an undisclosed fortune.Mrs. Frogerton, however, is thoroughly unimpressed with the firm’s conduct and suspicious of their true motives.

The full weight of the situation doesn’t sink in until Mr. Smith dies following a brutal attack on the street—discovered with an empty envelope bearing Caroline’s name in his pocket.

As humans continue to degrade and destroy our planetâ ™s resources, leading to predictions of total ecological collapse, some (such as the entrepreneur Elon Musk) now suggest that a human colony elsewhere may be our speciesâ ™ best hope for survival. Adam Morton examines extra-terrestrial colonization plans with a critical eye. He makes a strong case for colonization â “ just not by human beings. Humans live relatively short lives and, to survive, require large amounts of food and water, very specific climatic conditions and an oxygen-rich atmosphere. We can create colonists that have none of these shortcomings. Reflecting compassionately on the nature of existence, Morton argues that we should treat the end of the human race in the same way that we treat our own deaths: as something sad but ultimately inevitable. The earth will perish one day, and, in the end, we should be concerned more with securing the future of intelligent beings than with the preservation of our species, which represents but a nanosecond in the history of our solar system.

A Washington Post Best Nonfiction Book of the Year In the spirit of Fierce Attachments and The End of Your Life Book Club, acclaimed novelist Brian Morton delivers a “superb” (Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air), darkly funny memoir of his mother’s vibrant life and the many ways in which their tight, tumultuous relationship was refashioned in her twilight years.Tasha Morton is a force of nature: a brilliant educator who’s left her mark on generations of students—and also a whirlwind of a mother, intrusive, chaotic, oppressively devoted, and irrepressible. For decades, her son Brian has kept her at a self-protective distance, but when her health begins to fail, he knows it’s time to assume responsibility for her care. Even so, he’s not prepared for what awaits him, as her refusal to accept her own fragility leads to a series of epic outbursts and altercations that are sometimes frightening, sometimes wildly comic, and sometimes both. Clear-eyed, “deeply stirring” (Dani Shapiro, The New York Times Book Review), and brimming with dark humor, Tasha is both a vivid account of an unforgettable woman and a stark look at the impossible task of caring for an elderly parent in a country whose unofficial motto is “you’re on your own.”

But Thrawnâ ™s origins and the story of his rise in the Imperial ranks have remained mysterious. Now, in Star Wars: Thrawn, Timothy Zahn chronicles the fateful events that launched the blue-skinned, red-eyed master of military strategy and lethal warfare into the highest realms of powerâ ”and infamy. After Thrawn is rescued from exile by Imperial soldiers, his deadly ingenuity and keen tactical abilities swiftly capture the attention of Emperor Palpatine.

As one promotion follows another in his rapid ascension to greater power, he schools his trusted aide, ensign Eli Vanto, in the arts of combat, leadership, and the secrets of claiming victory. But even though Thrawn dominates the battlefield, he has much to learn in the arena of politics where ruthless administrator Arihnda Pryce holds the power to be a potent ally or a brutal enemy.All these lessons will be put to the ultimate test when Thrawn rises to admiralâ ”and must pit all the knowledge, instincts, and battle forces at his command against an insurgent uprising that threatens not only innocent lives but also the Empireâ ™s grip on the galaxyâ ”and his own carefully laid plans for future ascendency.

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2015 SAMUEL JOHNSON PRIZE We have come to see the Holocaust as a factory of death, organised by bureaucrats. Yet by the time the gas chambers became operation more than a million European Jews were already dead: shot at close range over pits and ravines. They had been murdered in the lawless killing zones created by the German colonial war in the East, many on the fertile black earth that the Nazis believed would feed the German people.It comforts us to believe that the Holocaust was a unique event. But as Timothy Snyder shows, we have missed basic lessons of the history of the Holocaust, and some of our beliefs are frighteningly close to the ecological panic that Hitler expressed in the 1920s. As ideological and environmental challenges to the world order mount, our societies might be more vulnerable than we would like to think.Timothy Snyderâ ™s Bloodlands was an acclaimed exploration of what happened in eastern Europe between 1933 and 1945, when Nazi and Soviet policy brought death to some 14 million people. Black Earth is a deep exploration of the ideas and politics that enabled the worst of these policies, the Nazi extermination of the Jews. Its pioneering treatment of this unprecedented crime makes the Holocaust intelligible, and thus all the more terrifying.

Described by Billie Jean King as her tennis bible , Timothy Gallwey s international bestseller has been essential reading for players of all abilities since it was first published in 1974. With a new foreword from Bill Gates.Instead of concentrating on how to improve your technique, Timothy Gallwey starts from the understanding that every game is composed of two parts, an outer game and an inner game . The former is played against opponents on the court, but the latter is a battle within ourselves as we try and overcome self-doubt and anxiety. It is often won or lost before a ball has been hit.In his revolutionary approach, built on a foundation of Zen thinking and humanistic psychology, Gallwey will teach you how to trust the intuitive wisdom of your body and achieve a state of ‘relaxed concentration’. With lessons on gamesmanship and breaking bad habits, it is no surprise that Gallwey’s method has had a far-reaching impact both on and off the tennis court. Whether you want to win at tennis, write a novel, get ahead at work, or simply unwind after a stressful day, Gallwey shows you how to tap into your utmost potential.No matter your goals, The Inner Game of Tennis gives you the definitive framework for long-term success.

The interpretation of certain key texts in the Bible by two Dominican Friars: the celebrated author Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe and Biblical scholar Lukasz Popko.Many today may see the relationship between God and humanity as one of passive submission and thus unquestioning. Two outstanding Dominicans, Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe and Lukasz Popko suggest otherwise. Questioning God explores Biblical conversations with God and there is no genuine conversation without true questions. Our God question us, from the first conversation of God and humanity in the Bible, where God asks Adam, â ˜Where are you?â ™, to the Risen Lordâ ™s questioning Peter on the beach: â ˜Do you love me more than these others?â ™ But humanity questions God too, as in the audacious questioning of Jesus by the Samaritan woman at the well. In this process of mutual questioning, humanity is drawn ever deeper into the life of God, the eternal conversation of the Trinity. Insights into these transformative conversations are helpful as the Church questions how to be faithful to God in this uncertain time. Fr Popko offers a fresh translation and insights of Biblical scholarship, and Cardinal Radcliffe extends his rich experience as a preacher, theologian, and an inspiring commentator.

All three had crucial roles in the government s response- Ben S. Bernanke as chairman of the Federal Reserve; Henry M. Paulson, Jr., as secretary of the Treasury under President George W. Bush; Timothy F. Geithner as president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York during the Bush years and then Treasury secretary under President Barack Obama. A powerful, warts and all account told with unprecedented clarity; from the flawed human response to the necessity to learn from the past and help firefighters of the future protect economies from the ravages of financial crises.Firefighting is a vital account of a defining moment in modern history and an inspiring lesson on leadership through crisis.

Velmi čtivě napsané vyprávění o historii psychologie. Autorovi se podařilo spojit novinářskou srozumitelnost s velkým množstvím informací o psychologii.

Autor sleduje rozvoj psychologie i podle jejích jednotlivých disciplín. Postupně se věnuje psychologii osobnosti, vývojové a sociální psychologii, psychologii vnímání, zkoumání motivace a emocí, kognitivní psychologii a nakonec psychoterapii. V závěrečné části kniha se autor zabývá problémem zneužitelnosti psychologie. Předkládá příklady zneužití psychologie ve výchově, reklamě, soudnictví a zamýšlí se nad některými důsledky psychologického zkoumání pro dnešek. Morton Hunt je americký psycholog a publicista, který své studium a publicistickou práci zaměřuje na význam psychologie jako vědy v současné době a zamýšlí se nad jejími možnostmi a hranicemi, nad riziky a perspektivami.

Winston and the Windsors is a rich and vivid story not only of how Churchill befriended and advised Kings, Queens, princes and princesses but of how the Prime Minister’s splendid and glorious association with the crown shaped modern Britain.Few figures in British history have been so deeply and consequentially involved with the British royal family as Winston Churchill. Churchill was unique in his role: helping to shape not only a single reign but an entire royal dynasty.However, it was by no means a seamless relationship. At times, the royals treated him with suspicion and contempt; at others they were avuncular, competitive and cheering. Yet whether he was playing the role of antagonist to the royal family or that of trusted confidante, the Prime Minister #39;s influence was central to the twentieth-century history of the monarchy. This is drama of the first order, at times thrilling and always compelling.Winston and the Windsors marks the first dual biography of Winston Churchill alongside the royal family. Having unearthed much under-appreciated archival material – including diary entries, postcards and letters to and from Kings, Queens and princes – Morton presents a meticulously researched biography of a royal house and a beloved Prime Minister.Also available:Diana: Her True Story (9781789290448)Wallis in Love (9781789293739)Elizabeth and Margaret (9781789294231)The Queen (9781789295313)

Few figures in British history have been so deeply and so consequentially involved with the British royal family as Winston Spencer Churchill. While numerous men of stature have advised kings and queens during their reigns, Churchill is unique in his role: helping to shape not only a reign, but an entire royal dynasty. However, it was by no means a seamless relationship. At times, the royal family treated him with suspicion and contempt; at others, their relations were avuncular, competitive and cheering. Yet whether he was playing the role of antagonist to the royal family or that of trusted confidante, Churchill’s influence was central to the twentieth-century history of the British monarchy.The attitudes of the royal family towards him, whether warm or icy, were also crucial in creating the legend of Winston Churchill. The House of Windsor helped shape his career and his legacy: from his young days receiving paternal advice from Edward VII; his middle years of diehard loyalty to King Edward VIII during the abdication crisis; his initially grudging but ultimately fruitful partnership with George VI during World War II; to his enduring fondness for young Elizabeth, the last sovereign he served.While there have been many biographies of Winston Churchill on the one hand, and many volumes on members of the royal family on the other, none of these has yet charted the relationship between Churchill and the royal family itself, even though these partnerships shaped and defined the House of Windsor and modern Britain. In short, the history of the monarchy in the twentieth century cannot be fully understood without reference to Winston Churchill, and Churchill’s life and legacy cannot be adequately appreciated without accounting for his relationship with the royal family.Having unearthed much under-appreciated material relating to Churchill held in the Churchill Archives at Cambridge University – including diary entries, postcards, and letters to and from kings, queens and princes – Andrew Morton presents a meticulously researched dual biography of Winston Churchill and the House of Windsor. It is a drama of the first order. At times thrilling and always compelling: this is the saga of a man, a family, a beloved institution, and a regal dynasty.
