An inspiring overview of contemporary homes set against the backdrop of high mountains, steep hillsides and picturesque valleys with a focus on architecture and interior design. From the majestic peaks of the Alps to the green slopes of Japan's Shikoku Range and the rugged heights of the Rocky Mountains: the selected residential buildings at such dizzying heights are a reminder that architecture not only creates spaces, but also shapes the relationship between human beings and their environment. They are creative showpieces that blend harmoniously and respectfully into the breathtaking nature of the mountain landscapes. Hillside locations present very special challenges and at the same time offer endless design possibilities. On the one hand, they open up spectacular views, while on the other they make innovative solutions for the room program possible. All the oases of modern living featured in this book demonstrate unique ways how esthetics, functionality, sustainability and adaptation to the topography can be felicitously combined.

Vydejte se na fascinující a zároveň děsivou cestu do světa ultrazpracovaných potravin.

V knize se mimo jiné dozvíte - Průmyslové zpracování potravin snižuje obsah mikroživin tak drasticky, že způsobuje podvýživu a obezitu současně. - Nízkokalorické výrobky podporují přejídání navzdory tomu, že neobsahují cukr. - Nezdravá strava je celosvětově spojena s větším počtem úmrtí než kouření. - Mnoho průmyslových potravin je cíleně navrženo tak, aby byly návykové. - Jak rozvíjet schopnost rozhodovat se při nákupu zdravěji.

What's the secret to staying young? The popular movie and television stars [says] it's about attitude and staying active and has a new book to prove it." - NPR Weekend Edition"Song-and-dance man Van Dyke relishes his approaching 90th birthday and shares some tips for readers on reaching and enjoying that venerable age.

A New York Times and Wall Street Journal Nonfiction Bestseller! - What happened that night on Dead Mountain?The mystery of Dead Mountain: In February 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers in the Russian Ural Mountains died mysteriously on an elevation known as Dead Mountain. Eerie aspects of the mountain climbing incident-unexplained violent injuries, signs that they cut open and fled the tent without proper clothing or shoes, a strange final photograph taken by one of the hikers, and elevated levels of radiation found on some of their clothes-have led to decades of speculation over the true stories and what really happened. As gripping and bizarre as Hunt for the Skin Walker: This New York Times bestseller, Dead Mountain: The Untold True Story of the Dyatlov Pass Incident, is a gripping work of literary nonfiction that delves into the untold story of Dead Mountain through unprecedented access to the hikers' own journals and photographs, rarely seen government records, dozens of interviews, and the author's retracing of the hikers' fateful journey in the Russian winter.You'll love this real-life tale: Dead Mountain is a fascinating portrait of young adventurers in the Soviet era, and a skillful interweaving of the hikers' narrative, the investigators' efforts, and the author's investigations. Here for the first time is a historical nonfiction bestseller with the real story of what happened that night on Dead Mountain.

DEBUTED AT NO.1 ON THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER LISTNO.1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE SOCIAL ANIMALAre you on your first or second mountain? Is life about you - or others? About success - or something deeper? The world tells us that we should pursue our self-interest: career wins, high status, nice things. These are the goals of our first mountain. But at some point in our lives we might find that we''re not interested in what other people tell us to want. We want the things that are truly worth wanting.This is the second mountain. What does it mean to look beyond yourself and find a moral cause? To forget about independence and discover dependence - to be utterly enmeshed in a web of warm relationships? What does it mean to value intimacy, devotion, responsibility and commitment above individual freedom? In The Second Mountain David Brooks explores the meaning and possibilities that scaling a second mountain offer us and the four commitments that most commonly move us there: family, vocation, philosophy and community. Inspiring, personal and full of joy, this book will help you discover why you were really put on this earth.

But it was on a hot July night that my dreamy thoughts became real. The brave astronauts of Apollo 11 travelled to that distant place and stepped out onto its surface, their boots blazing a new trail in the ancient grey dust. Those footprints showed me that impossible things can happen." Chris Hadfield.Young Chris is a very important astronaut.

When he watches in awe at the Apollo 11 Moon Landing, Chris realizes he must overcome his fear of the dark. For in the darkest dark of space lies a power and a mystery that might just help Chris make his dreams come true.Inspired by the childhood of real-life astronaut, Commander Chris Hadfield, author of An Astronaut''s Guide to Life on Earth. The Darkest Dark is his debut children''s book, brought to life by the illustrations of Terry and Eric Fan. The evocative beauty of their pictures brings to life a bedtime story that will encourage children to dream big, think like an astronaut and embrace the unknown.

Back in print in an expanded edition, this richly illustrated survey of Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s entire career is timed to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of their acclaimed Gates project  Christo (1935–2020) and Jeanne-Claude’s (1935–2009) landscape-scaled, outdoor projects were astounding temporary works of art in public settings that captured headlines across the globe. For sixteen days in February of 2005, their most celebrated installation, The Gates—7,500 saffron-colored fabric panels suspended from the tops of vinyl gates—stood along 23 miles of walkways in New York City’s Central Park.  This book celebrates the twentieth anniversary of The Gates with photographs of their installation alongside reproductions of the preparatory drawings that Christo created as he planned the project. An essay by Jonathan Fineberg surveys the career of Christo and Jeanne-Claude and their life journey through projects such as Surrounded Islands in Miami, The Umbrellas in Japan and California, Wrapped Reichstag in Berlin, and many more. This expanded edition also includes an epilogue that considers the artists’ works after The Gates—including Floating Piers in Italy and L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped in Paris—and a 2017 interview Fineberg conducted with Christo, one of the artist’s last.  This new edition is published on the occasion of two documentation exhibitions, curated by the artists in their lifetimes and presented to the public as the artists wanted them to be seen.  Exhibition Schedule:  Christo and Jeanne-Claude: The Gates and Unrealized Projects for New York CityThe Shed, New York (February 12–March 23, 2025)  Surrounded Islands Documentation ExhibitionNSU Art Museum, Fort Lauderdale (Opens February 23, 2025)

Named to the Civil Eats "2025 Food and Farming Holiday Book Gift Guide"How we can meet the challenges of our age by moving away from the political and economic philosophies of both the left and right to a more equitable re-organization of society, economy, land and food production, driven by the local community rather than a central government. Today, society and government are still asking what our country can yield, and in what quantity. They do so because in a sense we are still living in conquest-based societies. Agrarian thinker Chris Smaje opens this book by drawing an arresting modern parallel to Viking raiding, trading and enslaving societies and the Ragnarok they faced then of dramatic climate change and societal collapse. So, to meet these modern crises, Chris asks us to look beyond the current discourse of capitalism versus chaos, and indeed the dualism of ‘state versus market’ and the ‘state with the market’, both of which has failed us. Instead, Chris explores a world where we live slower lives more immersed in local ecologies. Where our present Viking age has inflicted a thorough alienation from place and local livelihood, Chris proposes other models of collective organization, where land and capital are seen as a common good that involves a widespread and secure redistribution. These ideas are the basic principles associated with distributism – broadly, that issues should be dealt with at the most immediate or local level feasible and governance, wherever possible, should be bottom-up. There should also be a moral economy founded in ideals of justice. Work and production should rest on commitments struck in a community rather than deals in a market. There should be a concept of shared common good, of what life is for. Ultimately, we should build a sense of future possibility around local ecological societies dedicated to human and ecological wellbeing. Much of the global damage to the environment has arisen not because people were there in the landscape, but because they weren’t. It’s time to hospice modernity and build a green Earth rising. In this book, Chris discusses what this society and landscape might look like in the near future and longer term.
