Emmy Noether - Helaine Becker
Emmy Noether is not pretty, quiet, good at housework or eager to marry - all the things a German girl is expected to be in her time. What she is, though, is a genius at maths. Bestselling and award-winning author Helaine Becker has crafted an engaging look at the life of Emmy Noether, a contemporary of Einstein''s and one of the most influential, though little known, mathematicians of the twentieth century. Despite the obstacles she faced as a woman in a male-dominated field, and as a Jew who had to flee the Nazis, Emmy still accomplished a great deal.

Jonathan Becker - Jonathan Becker
‘Epic, stunning, and completely delicious. Jonathan Becker: Lost Time is a fitting legacy for one of the true photographic masters of our age.’ – Graydon Carter, founder and co-editor of Air Mail and former editor of Vanity Fair The first retrospective monograph on photographer Jonathan Becker, one of the great visual storytellers of our time Over the course of five decades, Jonathan Becker has produced a body of evocative photographic work that documents lives of the twentieth-century beau monde. A protégé of legendary Parisian photographer Brassaï and a longtime contributor to Vanity Fair, Becker’s work provides a link between fine-art photography and the notion of the photographer as social observer. Bringing together commissioned and personal work, this stunning collection presents more than 200 images from across Becker’s career, charting his journeys in New York, Paris, London, and Buenos Aires from the 1970s to the 2010s. Portraits of artists Ed Ruscha and Cindy Sherman, writers Arthur Miller and Eudora Welty, musicians David Bowie and Mick Jagger, and others reveal Becker’s exceptional eye and astute sociological observations. The monograph includes an introductory text by the book’s editor, Mark Holborn, along with a narrative text by Becker about his life, travels, and encounters ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Denial of Death - Ernest Becker
''It made me rethink the roots of our deepest fears and insecurities, and why we often disappoint ourselves in how we manifest them'' Bill Clinton, GuardianWinner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1974 and the culmination of a life''s work, The Denial of Death is Ernest Becker''s brilliant and impassioned answer to the ''why'' of human existence. In bold contrast to the predominant Freudian school of thought, Becker tackles the problem of the vital lie - man''s refusal to acknowledge his own mortality. The book argues that human civilisation is a defence against the knowledge that we are mortal beings. Becker states that humans live in both the physical world and a symbolic world of meaning, which is where our ''immortality project'' resides. We create in order to become immortal - to become part of something we believe will last forever. In this way we hope to give our lives meaning.In The Denial of Death, Becker sheds new light on the nature of humanity and issues a call to life and its living that still resonates decades after it was written.

Courtrai. 11. července 1302. Bitva zlatých ostruh - Xavier Hélary
Bitva u Courtrai, kterou v roce 1302 svedlo flanderské vojsko s vojskem francouzského krále Filipa Sličného, se v 19. století stala klíčovou součástí nejprve belgické a posléze specificky vlámské "národní" paměti a svůj význam si drží dodnes. Svou nezvyklostí však fascinovala už své současníky: vždyť necvičené pěší vojsko na hlavu porazilo věhlasné francouzské rytířstvo. Francouzský historik Xavier Hélary vysoce odborným a přitom poutavým způsobem provádí čtenáře po širším historickém kontextu francouzsko-flanderských vztahů na přelomu 13. a 14. století, zamýšlí se nad rolí národní identity v událostech samotných i v jejich pozdějších výkladech, rozebírá různá kronikářská vyprávění a jejich prostřednictvím ukazuje, jakým způsobem může moderní historik uchopit a sepsat historii jedné bitvy.

Inside - Boris Becker
Sitting in the prison classroom each morning, reading the pages in my book, listening to the teacher, I could feel myself slowing down. I had achieved greatness. I had won three Wimbledon titles, two Aussie Opens, the US Open, two Davis Cups, an Olympic gold medal.But where was I now?I looked around this small room, at the tired faces. I looked at the walls and the small windows. Either I was some strange exception, a great man surrounded by lesser men, or I was not an exception at all. I fitted right in. And if I did, why was that?Some fierce internal engine had always driven me – a kind of relentless intensity that never let up. It had taken me to Centre Court at Wimbledon. Maybe it had taken me here, too. I thought this craziness was my greatest weapon. I go all-in. Maybe I had turned this weapon on myself. So, I kept reading, each morning.

Writing for Social Scientists, Third Edition - Howard S. Becker
For more than thirty years, Writing for Social Scientists has been a lifeboat for writers in all fields, from beginning students to published authors. It starts with a powerful reassurance: Academic writing is stressful, and even accomplished scholars like sociologist Howard S. Becker struggle with it. And it provides a clear solution: In order to learn how to write, take a deep breath and then begin writing. Revise. Repeat. This is not a book about sociological writing. Instead, Becker applies his sociologist's eye to some of the common problems all academic writers face, including trying to get it right the first time, failing, and therefore not writing at all; getting caught up in the trappings of "proper" academic writing; writing to impress rather than communicate with readers; and struggling with the when and how of citations. He then offers concrete advice, based on his own experiences and those of his students and colleagues, for overcoming these obstacles and gaining confidence as a writer. While the underlying challenges of writing have remained the same since the book first appeared, the context in which academic writers work has changed dramatically, thanks to rapid changes in technology and ever greater institutional pressures.

Europe without Borders - Isaac Stanley-Becker
The contested creation of free movement—for people and goods—in the Schengen area of EuropeEurope is a place of free movement among nations—or is it? The Schengen area, established in 1985 and today encompassing twenty-nine European countries, allows people, goods, and capital to cross borders without restraint. Schengen transformed European life, advancing both a democratic project of transnational citizenship and a neoliberal project of international free trade. But the right of free movement always excluded non-Europeans, especially migrants of color from former colonies of the Schengen states. In Europe without Borders, Isaac Stanley-Becker explores the contested creation of free movement in Schengen, from treatymaking at European summits and disputes in international courts to the street protests of undocumented immigrants who claimed free movement as a human right. Schengen laid the groundwork for the making of a single market and the founding of the European Union. Yet its emergence is one of the great untold stories of modern European history, one hidden in archives long embargoed. Stanley-Becker is among the first to have access to records of the treatymaking—such as letters between France’s François Mitterrand and West Germany’s Helmut Kohl—and Europe without Borders offers a pathbreaking account of Schengen’s creation.

Kam se upírá naše pozornost, tam proudí i naše energie - a stává se realitou. Nicméně, pozornost mnoha lidí je uvězněna v pasti: v destruktivních myšlenkových vzorcích, přesvědčeních a nevyléčených vnitřních konfliktech. Tyto stavy jsou pro většinu lidí zcela "normální"; mnozí si ani neuvědomují, co se s nimi děje. Metoda Přímé komunikace s nevědomím je účinný návod, jak získat zpět svoji pozornost a začít žít jako svobodná bytost. Můžete díky ní pomoci jednak sobě, jednak druhým lidem.

Tender-hearted NOA is a construction robot who’s found new purpose as the caretaker of the zoo’s beleaguered inhabitants. Bracing for the next storm, NOA builds an ark from the wreckage in search of new land, only to discover something even more profound. With boundless compassion and sweeping scenes of sea and sky punctuated by detailed wordless panels to pore over, Caldecott Honor–winning creator Aaron Becker delivers a timely and concrete message about the rewards of caring in even the most difficult of times that is sure to inspire the dreamers among us.

More Everything Forever - Adam Becker
''Disconcerting . . . a disturbing and important book'' NEW SCIENTIST''Smart and wonderfully readable'' NEW YORK TIMESThe bad science and sinister ideas behind Silicon Valley''s foolish obsession with immortality, AI paradise and limitless growth.Tech billionaires have decided that they should determine our futures for us. According to Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Sam Altman and more, the only good future for humanity is one powered by technology: trillions of humans living in space, functionally immortal, served by superintelligent AIs.In More Everything Forever, scientist and writer Adam Becker investigates these wildly implausible and often profoundly immoral visions of tomorrow to reveal why, in reality, there is no good evidence that they will, or should, come to pass. The giants of Silicon Valley claim that their ideas are based on science, but the truth is darker: they come from a jumbled mix of shallow futurism and racist pseudoscience. And behind these fanciful visions of space colonies and digital immortality is a cynical power grab, at the expense of essential work spent on solving real problems like the climate crisis.More Everything Forever exposes the powerful myths that dominate Silicon Valley, challenging us to see how foolish, and dangerous, these visions of the future are.
