Trust me, this is a great true story - Ken Follett It deserves to be ranked among the great survival stories of the Second World War - The Jewish Chronicle ~~~~~ The captivating true story of one boy s flight across Europe to escape the Nazis. A tale of extraordinary courage, incredible adventure, and the relentless pursuit of life in the face of impossible challenges. In early 1940 Chaim Herszman was locked in to the Lódz Ghetto in Poland. Hungry, fearless and determined, he goes on scavenging missions outside the wire limits, until he is forced to kill a Nazi guard. That moment changes the course of his life, and sets him on an unbelievable adventure across enemy lines. Chaim avoids grenade and rifle fire on the Russian border, shelters with a German family in Berlin, falls in love in occupied France, is captured on a mountain pass in Spain, gets interrogated as a potential Nazi spy in Britain, and eventually fights for everything he believes in as part of the British Army. He protects his life by posing as an Aryan boy with a crucifix around his neck, and fights for his life through terrible and astonishing circumstances. Escape from the Ghetto is about a normal boy who faced extermination by the Nazis in the ghetto or a Nazi deathcamp, and the extraordinary life he led in avoiding that fate. It s a bittersweet story about epic hope, beauty amidst horror, and the triumph of the human spirit. John Carr is Henry Carr s eldest son, and in Escape From the Ghetto he has recreated his father s incredible adventure, through recordings and transcribed conversations in later life. For fans of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Saboteur of Auschwitz and The Volunteer, this is the incredible true story of escape from the Nazis during World War II.

Passionate and spellbinding, and an absolute must read. - Julia Neuberger John Carr s book gives a truly riveting account of his teenage Dad s life on the run in Nazi-occupied Europe.

If he could just get through to his mother, he could convince her that he doesn’t belong at Brookline. From the man who thinks he can fly to the woman who killed her husband, the other patients are nothing like him; all he did was lose his temper just a little bit, just the once. But when Ricky is selected by the sinister Warden Crawford for a very special program—a program that the warden claims will not cure him but perfect him—Ricky realizes that he may not be able to wait for his mom a second longer. With the help of a sympathetic nurse and a fellow patient, Ricky needs to escape now.Set long before Dan, Abby, and Jordan ever walked the hallways of the Brookline asylum—back when it was still a functioning psych ward and not a dorm—Escape from Asylum is a mind-bending and scary installment in the Asylum series that can stand on its own for new readers or provide missing puzzle pieces for series fans.

The received wisdom in quantum physics is that, at the deepest levels of reality, there are no actual causes for atomic events. This idea led to the outlandish belief that quantum objects - indeed, reality itself - aren t real unless shaped by human measurement. Einstein mocked this idea, asking whether his bed spread out across his room unless he looked at it.And yet it remains one of the most influential ideas in science and our culture. In Escape from Shadow Physics, Adam Forrest Kay takes up Einstein s torch: reality isn t mysterious or dependent on human measurement, but predictable and independent of us. At the heart of his argument is groundbreaking research with little drops of oil.These droplets behave as particles do in the long-overlooked quantum theory of pilot waves; crucially, they display quantum behaviour while being described by classical physics. What if the original doubters of our quantum orthodoxy (not least Einstein himself) were onto something? What if pilot wave theory was right all along? In that case, our whole story of twentieth-century physics is topsy-turvy and we must give up the idea that reality is simply too weird to grasp. Weird it may still be, but a true understanding of nature now seems within our reach.

Knižní debut Olgy Anny Marie Lisové je pohádkou. Pohádkou pro děti, které už nejsou tak úplně dětmi, protože ani tato pohádka není úplně pohádkou. V příběhu, který se odehrává v malé chaloupce kousek od moře a stranou velkých měst a každodenního shonu, se sice setkáte s potetovanou babičkou, anděly nebo jednorožcem, stejně tak se v ní však autorka dotýká současnosti, palčivých společenských témat a rodinných problémů. Hlavním hrdinou pohádky je Pady, kterého otec přiváží na léto ke své matce a otci, počmárané babičce a jejímu muži. Svérázná babička svého syna neviděla tři roky a s vnukem rychle najdou společnou řeč. Pady celé léto pomáhá prarodičům se vším, co je v jejich životě vážné - pečení štrůdlu, nošení rašeliny do krbu... Za to mu babička vypráví příběhy svých tetování, které má po celém těle. Paralelně se rozvíjí příběh Padyho a prarodičů na venkově a Padyho otce ve městě a i když nejednou oklikou, obě linky spějí k pohádkovému konci. Nevšední a dynamický, hovorový jazyk je ve výborném dialogu se stejně nevšedním a dynamickým, citlivým a lidským obsahem knihy.

A brilliant account of how models are so often abused and of how they should be used John KayHow do mathematical models shape our world - and how can we harness their power for good?Models are at the centre of everything we do. Whether we use them or are simply affected by them, they act as metaphors that help us better understand the increasingly complex problems facing us in the modern world. Without models, we couldn t begin to tackle three of the major challenges facing modern society: regulation of the economy, climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet in recent years, the validity of the models we use has been hotly debated and there has been renewed awareness of the disastrous consequences when the makers and interpreters of models get things wrong.Drawing on contemporary examples from finance, climate and health policy, Erica Thompson explores what models are, why we need them, how they work and what happens when they go wrong. This is not a book that argues we should do away with models, but rather, that we need to properly understand how they are constructed - and how some of the assumptions that underlie the models we use can have significant unintended consequences. Unexpectedly humorous, thought-provoking and passionate, this is essential reading for everyone.

Made with yarn from Iceland, Sweden and Norway, these sweaters are as cosy and warm as traditional Icelandic sweaters but with fresh, bright designs and colours for a brand new look.Author, Marita Clementz, was inspired to design her bright, colourful sweaters when she couldn t find any knitting patterns that featured the kind of designs she was looking for.

They are designed to have a loose fit which means they work as unisex sweaters and can be worn by the whole family.Marita uses unspun but not undyed yarn from Norway, Sweden and Iceland to get the same beautiful halo effect, and the same lightness and warmth you get with a traditional lopapeysa sweater.This collection includes 12 top down sweater designs. Each design has an alternative colourway so you can see how it might look in a different palette and experiment with your own colour choices.Marita is based in Sweden and as well as knitting she loves to go hiking. This collection of designs has been inspired by nature with its organic shapes and motifs including large flower blooms. The colour choices have also been inspired by the natural world with combinations influenced by the midnight sun in Sweden and midsummer flower meadows.The sweaters are all graded to fit 10 different sizes and the fit is quite loose so will suit a wide range of body types. This really is a sweater collection for the whole family regardless of age, gender or body shape.

His innate wanderlust was both a blessing and a curse, but it made for a splendid adventure, and Harry s was a grand life lived in history s shadow.
