Seed Celestial - Sara R. Burnett

Poems reflecting on contemporary political issues, mythological origins, and the capacity for hope in the face of uncertain futures.   This collection weaves together themes of motherhood, immigration, social transformation, and interrogation. Throughout Seed Celestial, Sara R. Burnett writes haunting reflections on origins—of myth and memory, language and country, earth and mothers—as she looks to an uncertain future.  Bringing together contemporary issues of climate change, gun violence, and feminism while working from her own experience of raising a young daughter, she writes, “You were inside my body / while I was outside; / outside was everything else.” Burnett vividly renders her own origin story as an immigrant’s daughter using the myths of Demeter and Persephone. This book is a love letter to the earth the way only a mother can write it: appreciating all its faults while seeing its beauty. Burnett offers a poetry collection that is tender, and honest, akin to having an intimate conversation with a friend who tells us what we know to be true about ourselves, our twin capacities for love and violence, and what we don’t. She intertwines our violent, complicated world with the uncanny human capacity for hope and describes the awe of a world recreating itself again and again while wondering about all we lose and leave behind, especially for the next generation.  Seed Celestial is the winner of the 2021 Autumn House Press Poetry Prize, selected by Eileen Myles.

Relentless - Dean Stott

For readers of Ant Middleton, Jason Fox, and SAS: Who Dares Wins, comes the extraordinary story of Special Forces soldier Dean Stott.Everybody has heard the SAS motto that who dares wins, but special forces warrior Dean Stott also lives his life by another powerful mantra - that of the relentless pursuit of excellence. In 16 years of service, Dean rose to the top of Britain's fighting force, taking part of some of the most daring and dangerous operations in the war on terror.But then, following a horrific parachuting accident, Dean's dream career was cut short, and his ethos was put to its toughest test. Just like the day when Dean's dad said that he could never make it as a soldier, Dean's doctors told him that he would never again perform at the elite level.To put it mildly, Dean disagreed, but even those that knew him were staggered by the mission that he set himself - the man who didn't own a bike would cycle the Pan American Highway, a 14,000 mile route that stretches from Argentina to Alaska, passing through some of the most dangerous countries in the world. A passionate mental health campaigner, Dean decided to up the stakes further by setting himself the task of raising a million pounds for charity. With two world records also in his sights, the stage was set for Dean to rediscover the tenacity, bravery, and downright doggedness that saw him rise to the top of the Special Forces. The final curveball arrived in the shape of a wedding invitation from his old friend Prince Harry - would he make it back in time for the royal wedding, or at all? Dean Stott is Relentless, and this is his story.

Ignorance and Bliss - Mark Lilla

‘Wise and wonderfully enjoyable. . . . timely and terrifically witty.’ — John Banville, The Observer‘Mark Lilla is always a challenging, fascinating mind – alert to all the power, paradox, and dangers of ignorance.’ — Rory StewartAristotle claimed that ‘all human beings want to know’. Yet we also want not to know. Centuries after the Enlightenment, mesmerised crowds still follow preposterous prophets; irrational rumours trigger fanatical acts; and magical thinking crowds out common sense and expertise. Where does this will to ignorance originate, and how does it shape our lives today?Acclaimed essayist and historian of ideas Mark Lilla offers an absorbing intellectual travelogue of the human will not to know. He ranges with brio from the Book of Genesis and Plato’s dialogues to Sufi parables and Sigmund Freud, revealing the paradoxes of hiding truth from ourselves. Lilla also exposes the illusions that this impulse can lead us to entertain: our belief in the ecstasies of prophet figures as a gateway to truth, the myth of children’s wise simplicity, and the yearning for vanished, allegedly purer civilisations.

The Grassling - Elizabeth-Jane Burnett

''A subtle, moving celebration of place and connectedness . . . brings the sounds, smells and sights of the countryside alive like few other books'' GuardianWhat fills my lungs is wider than breath could be. It is a place and a language torn, matted and melded; flowered and chiming with bones. That breath is that place and until I get there I will not really be breathing.Spurred on by her father''s declining health and inspired by the history he once wrote of his small Devon village, Elizabeth-Jane Burnett delves through layers of memory, language and natural history to tell a powerful story of how the land shapes us and speaks to us. The Grassling is a book about roots: what it means to belong when the soil beneath our feet is constantly shifting, when the people and places that nurtured us are slipping away.

Soudruh Rock'n'Roll - Dean Reed - Reggie Nadelsonová

Dean Reed byl americký zpěvák, který se stal nevětší rockovou hvězdou v dějinách Sovětského svazu. Byl tak slavný, že se jeho fotky prodávaly vedle obrázků Josifa Stalina. Přesto o něm na Západě slyšel jen málokdo. Reggie Nadelsonová Reeda viděla poprvé v televizním diskusním pořadu v roce 1986. O šest týdnů později byl nalezen mrtev v jezeře nedaleko východního Berlína. Byl zavražděn CIA? Či snad KGB? Nebo žárlivým manželem? Nikdo nevěděl. Reggie Nadelsonová se po rozhodnutí natočit o Reedovi film a rozluštit záhadu jeho života a smrti vydala po jeho stopách napříč Amerikou a východní Evropou. Dean Reed cestoval s kytarou přes rameno celých pětadvacet let, od roku 1961 do 1986. Vystupoval ve 32 zemích, jeho desky patřily mezi ty nejprodávanější od Bulharska po Berlín. Rusové mu udělili cenu Lenina, byl přece jejich Američan. Soudruh rock’n’roll není jen příběh Deana Reeda o tom, jak se z malé hollywoodské hvězdičky stal kovboj studené války, ale také záznamem cesty Reggie Nadelsonové z Denveru do Berlína a z Havaje do Moskvy. Během jejího putování padla berlínská zeď a Dean Reed se stal záhadnou postavou, jehož život představoval neopakovatelný příběh ze světa studené války. Setkání s lidmi, kteří se objevili v Reedově životě, ji zavedla do zpustlého, někdy pohnutého, jindy absurdního prostředí sexu, politiky a rokenrolu…

Inferences with Ignorance: Logics of Questions - Michal Peliš

Inferences with Ignorance focuses on two formal logic systems that employ the type of inferences in which questions are used in addition to statements. Not merely capturing questions as part of a logical apparatus, Michal Peliš also emphasizes the role of question-asking in communication. The book presents options for formalizing questions using sets of "direct answers,” demonstrates where questions are used in inferences, and explores asking questions and seeking answers as important components of everyday communication, proposing ways of using questions within a formal system that can capture a change in knowledge during this simple communication.

“The wise man knows he doesn’t know.The fool doesn’t know he doesn’t know.”Lao Tzu“In the West they only respect experts.But the expert mind is the closed mind.”Shunryu SuzukiWhat’s the most important step in fixing a puncture?It isn’t jacking up the car, or taking the wheel off, or finding the puncture.There’s something more fundamental than any of those.Something without which you can’t even begin to fix a puncture. The most important step is finding out you’ve got a puncture. Without that you can’t do anything.Instead of saying, “It’s just a bit bumpy, must be the road,” and carrying on, you must acknowledge that something has changed and you don’t know what that is.If you don’t admit you don’t know what’s happening, you can never find out.If you don’t find out, you can never change it.The most important step, always, is admitting you don’t know.That’s the power of ignorance.In this latest collection of real-life stories, Dave Trott provides lessons about problem solving and creative thinking that can be applied in advertising, business, and the wider world. With his trademark wit, wisdom and critical eye, he shows how great problem solvers and creative thinkers are those who are not afraid to say “I don’t know.”

Switchwords - Dean Liz

Discover how to talk instantly to your subconscious and manifest the life you want.We all have goals and dreams – whether it’s personally or professionally – that we want to achieve, but for reasons we can’t always fathom, our behaviour and actions can hold us back. In her eye-opening and effective new book, MBS expert Liz Dean reveals how the key to transforming those dreams into reality lies not in our conscious actions, but in our subconscious thoughts. By aligning the two, we can unleash our own power to lose weight, organise our lives, work more efficiently in our jobs and so much more. Switch Words is this simple yet incredibly powerful tool to help you get there.The greatest obstacle in achieving your goals is your subconscious. Whilst your conscious mind knows what you want and how to get it, experience tells us our subconscious mind can often ignore or sabotage our desires through action or inaction. Have you ever created a meal plan to help you lose weight, but then a couple of days later found yourself inching to the fridge for a snack at 9pm? Even though you were desperate to achieve the body image you wanted, part of you, for some reason, resisted.This is because the words we use when expressing our goals and dreams have unique vibrations which the conscious mind understands – but the subconscious needs a different language in order to respond positively and get with the programme. Through easy-to-follow practices and techniques, Dean guides you to acknowledge the power your sub-conscious can have over everyday actions, how to extract the right switch words to resonate your conscious desire with your subconscious thoughts, and how to use them effectively day to day.Methodical and verifiably successful, switch words is the effective way to get what you want, and this book will show you how.
