Za ta desetiletí, kdy je celosvětově uznávaným duchovním učitelem, pomohl Richard Rohr milionům lidí uvědomit si, o co jde v otázkách víry a spirituality. Dosud nikdy však nepsal na téma, které je v křesťanství nejstálejší a nejčastější: na téma Ježíše. Kdo byl Ježíš, ví většina z nás. Ale kdo byl Kristus? Jedná se jen o Ježíšovo příjmení? Naše chápání, píše Rohr, bylo až příliš často omezeno kulturou, náboženským hašteřením a sklonem lidí stavět se do centra. Rohr čerpá z Písma, historie a duchovní praxe a předkládá transformativní pohled na Ježíše Krista jako na zpodobnění Božího trvalého, stále se odvíjejícího konání ve světě. "Bůh miluje věci skrze to, že se jimi stává," píše. Ježíšův život byl míněn jako vyhlášení, že člověk není od Boha nikdy oddělen - pokud si sám oddělení od něho nezvolí. Když znovu objevíme tuto základní pravdu, ve víře už nepůjde tolik o dokazování, že Ježíš byl Bůh, jako spíše o to, učit se rozpoznávat Stvořitelovu přítomnost ve všem kolem nás a v každém člověku, s nímž se setkáme.

Richard Rohr nás zve k sebepoznání a k tomu, abychom s jasností, nadhledem a posvátnou touhou vstoupili do podivuhodného božského rozhovoru. Tato každodenní rozjímání pro postní dobu jsou jeho darem pro naši proměnu v náš původní "obraz a podobu", která je samotným obrazem Božím. A to, o co vždy a s konečnou platností jde, je setkání! Otec Rohr začíná každé rozjímání jedním titulem nebo větou, která vystihuje jeho podstatu. Poté nabízí vlastní rozjímání, po němž následují klíčové pasáže ze čtení. Každé rozjímání zakončuje uvozující modlitbou, která nás vyzývá k sebeodhalení a k tomu, abychom vstoupili do podivuhodného božského rozhovoru s jasností, vhledem - a svatou touhou! "Jsou dvě věci, na kterých záleží. Jedna je ta, že víte, že váš jediný život je naprosto hodnotný a živý. Druhá je ta, že víte, že váš život, tak jak ho v současnosti žijete, je zcela zbytečný a prázdný. Obě potřebujete k tomu, abyste šli správným směrem. Postní doba je o obojím. Kniha Podivuhodná setkání není vázána na konkrétní cyklus čtení a je možné ji využívat každý rok.

V průběhu času lze ve všech společnostech, duchovních směrech a filozofiích nalézt určitý univerzální vzor.

Kniha známého duchovního autora, františkána Richarda Rohra, nabízí zamyšlení pro každý den adventu. Vychází z liturgického čtení na daný den a dává čtenáři impulzy k tomu, aby dobu adventního očekávání strávil skutečnou vnitřní obnovou a posilou. Rohr se staví proti infantilizaci Vánoc a vybízí naopak k tomu, aby se staly opravdovými svátky křesťanské dospělosti. Dává podněty k objevení Boží lásky, velkorysosti, jeho touhy po lidské svobodě. V krátkých, ale moudrých promluvách nabízí na každý den adventu téma, které je možné celý den promýšlet. K tomu slouží i podněcující otázka v závěru, jež obrací pozornost na konkrétní život čtenáře. Richar Rohr je americký františkán, mezinárodně uznávaný ekumenicky smýšlející učitel duchovního života. Základem jeho učení je kontemplativní praxe a žitá kenoze (oprošťování se), které se projevují radikálním soucítěním, především se sociálně slabými. Je autorem mnoha duchovních bestsellerů a zakladatelem Rohrova institutu a Živé školy akce a kontemplace.

V této knize se Rohr zabývá třemi tradičními zdroji zla a popisuje, jak se křesťanství zaměřovalo téměř výhradně na individuální, tělesnou úroveň, zatímco svět a ďábel po většinu křesťanských dějin v podstatě vyvázli bez trestu.

'An affecting novel by a literary urbanologist in top form' Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)In this electrifying novel, Richard Price, the author of Clockers and a writer on The Wire, gives us razor-sharp anatomy of an ever-changing Harlem.In Lazarus Man, Richard Price, one of the greatest chroniclers of life in urban America, creates intertwining portraits of a group of compelling and singular characters whose lives are permanently impacted by the disaster. East Harlem, 2008. In an instant, a five-story tenement collapses into a fuming hill of rubble, pancaking the cars parked in front and coating the street with a thick layer of ash. As the city's rescue services and media outlets respond, the surrounding neighborhood descends into chaos. At day's end, six bodies are recovered, but many of the other tenants are missing. Anthony Carter--whose miraculous survival, after being buried for days beneath tons of brick and stone, transforms him into a man with a message and a passionate sense of mission. Felix Pearl--a young transplant to the city, whose photography and film work that day provokes in this previously unformed soul a sharp sense of personal destiny. Royal Davis--owner of a failing Harlem funeral home, whose desperate trolling of the scene for potential "customers" triggers a quest to find another path in life. And Mary Roe--a veteran city detective who, driven in part by her own family's brutal history, becomes obsessed with finding Christopher Diaz, one of the building's missing. Price, the bestselling author of Lush Life and, most recently, The Whites, has created a bravura portrait of a community on the edge of disintegration. Rich with indelible characters and high drama, Lazarus Man is a riveting work of suspense and social vision by one of our major writers.

Změnili jsme víru na právo na jistotu, když nám ve skutečnosti trojiční tajemství našeptává pravý opak: Máme žít v nádherné, hrozné pokoře před realitou. V tomto prostoru nám Bůh dává pátravého ducha, touhu po porozumění; zdá se mi, že je to pouze toto neustálé úsilí o porozumění, co formuje milosrdné lidi - a moudré lidi. Jestli si myslíte, že máte právo na jistotu, tak mi ukažte, kde vám evangelium něco takového slibuje nebo nabízí. Sám Nový zákon je napsán řečí, kterou Ježíš nikdy nemluvil. Kdyby Bůh chtěl, abychom měli důkazy, racionální zdůvodnění a dokonale jasno, tak by Ježíšovo vtělení pozdržel do vynálezu magnetofonů a videokamer. Racionální jistota je přesně to, co nám Písmo nenabízí. Nabízí nám něco mnohem lepšího a úplně odlišný způsob poznání: intimní vztah, cestu tmou, stezku, na které si sami pro sebe musíme objevit, že milost, láska, milosrdenství a odpuštění jsou absolutně nezbytné pro přežití - ve světě vždy a navždy nejistém. Potřebujete jenom dostatek moudrosti a zakotvení, abyste věděli, jak žít bez jistoty! Ano, my skutečně jsme spaseni vírou. Lidé žijící tímto způsobem nikdy nepřestanou růst, jen tak snadno se nezlomí a je opravdu radost s nimi žít.

Tato nová fáze vyžaduje změnu pohledu na sebe sama, v němž se odvážíme dát volnější průchod samotnému životu. Tento „pád“ – který ale ve skutečnosti míří vzhůru – je odkazem světových náboženství, jemuž se lidé nejvíce vzpírají a který je v rozporu s běžným míněním.

A rich, vibrantly illustrated account of the history and sources of manga As contemporary as this graphic art form may appear to readers outside of Japan, manga has, in fact, deep roots in Japanese culture, drawing on centuries-old artistic traditions: traces can be found in seventh century temple paintings, folding screens decorated with comic characters, and painted medieval Emakimono scrolls. The more familiar manga comics of today echo similar themes, both light and serious, and draw on narrative forms present in the sagas and skits from Japan’s rich cultural heritage. This book spans the history of manga in all its splendour and diversity: from Hokusai’s seminal Manga in 1814 to the onset of the gekiga in the 1950s; from the landmark Astro Boy of Tezuka Ozamu to Lady Oscar, Riyoko Ikedan’s shôjo manga aimed at young girls; from samurai sagas to the more alternative productions of the review Garo; and from the demons that populate the works of Mizuki Shigeru to the latest creations from Jirô Taniguchi, each period is covered in detail. One Thousand Years of Manga is both a rich documentary account and a visual delight with over 400 illustrations, many never before seen outside of Japan. A thorough exploration of the sources of manga, this book makes it possible to understand how this mass-produced cultural artifact – aimed at adults as much as at children – has developed into an essential facet of Japanese culture that is now enjoyed across the globe.

Embrace adventures both big and small and pursue your wild ideas with this “profoundly inspiring and laugh-out-loud funny” (Jaimal Yogis, author of The Fear Project) guidebook from seasoned adventurer and podcaster Shelby Stanger.Will to Wild is an instruction manual to adventure. Your guide: enthusiastic outdoorswoman Shelby Stanger. Shelby has been teaching folks how to leap into the unknown since she taught her first surf class over twenty years ago. Over the years, she watched many of her students quit their jobs, end dysfunctional relationships, and move across the country for a healthier work-life balance—all after spending a bit of time in nature. Shelby marveled at the phenomenon. Being outside was changing the lives of her students, her peers, and herself. Shelby was so intrigued, she began to tell their stories, first as a writer and journalist, then as a podcast host for Wild Ideas Worth Living, REI Co-op Studio’s flagship podcast. With her first book, Will to Wild, Shelby shares all she’s witnessed and learned in her years covering adventurers. It’s the book she wishes she’d had when she’d first felt the urge to leap from familiar to wild terrain. The one that takes you step-by-step from the first inkling of inspiration for your own wild idea through fear and self-doubt and on to the finish line. In these pages, discover stories with practical tips and tactics from world-famous rock climbers and ultra-runners to longtime thru-hikers, surfers, and desk jockeys who’ve figured out how to get off the clock, and even a suburban mom who started teaching women to scale frozen waterfalls in her mid-fifties. Along with Shelby’s stories, they show you how to get unstuck, how to pay attention to “trail signs” that point you toward your adventure, how to face your fears, and what to do when everything goes haywire (which will likely never happen, never fear!). With Shelby’s characteristic strength and vulnerability, Will to Wild “is the ultimate guide for anyone looking to try something new” (Captain Liz Clark, author of Swell) and encourages you to break out of your comfort zones, get out into nature, and bring your own wild ideas to life. Whether you’re already an adventure junkie or someone who’s never set up a tent, there’s something inside these pages for you.

16 MILLION COPIES SOLD''A book to read, to cherish, to debate, and one that will ultimately keep the memories of the victims alive'' John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped PyjamasA prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn''t) with the experience. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man''s deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living.

''A major talent'' Irvine Welsh''Remarkable, beautiful, magic. Like Ulysses for those who can''t cope with reading Ulysses'' Paolo Hewitt''We''re all in the gutter but some of us are ogling the sparkles.''Set at the fag-end of the 1960s and framed as a novel within a novel published by a seedy London purveyor of pulp fiction, MAN-EATING TYPEWRITER is a homage to the avant-garde counterculture of the 20th century. Told in Polari, it is the story of an anarchist named Raymond Novak and his plan to commit a ''fantabulosa crime'' in 276 days that will revolt the world. A surrealistic odyssey that stretches from occupied Paris to the cruise-liner SS Unmentionable to lawless Tangier before settling in Swinging London, the book casts Novak as an agitator and freedom fighter - but, as his memoirs become more and more threatening, his publishers find themselves far more involved in his violent personality cult than they ever intended.Constructed like a hallucinogenic cocktail of A Clockwork Orange, Pale Fire and Jean Genet''s jailbird fantasies, MAN-EATING TYPEWRITER is an act of seductive sedition by a writer with unfathomable literary talent and boldness. Wild, transgressive, erotic and resolutely uncompromising, this marks the return of a writer who is out there on an island of his own making; a book that will be talked about, celebrated and puzzled over for decades.

The vagaries of game theory and evolutionary biology. Self-replicating moon bases and nuclear weapons.

He was instrumental in the Manhattan Project and helped formulate the bedrock of Cold War geopolitics and modern economic theory. He created the first ever programmable digital computer. He prophesied the potential of nanotechnology and, from his deathbed, expounded on the limits of brains and computers - and how they might be overcome.Taking us on an astonishing journey, Ananyo Bhattacharya explores how a combination of genius and unique historical circumstance allowed a single man to sweep through so many different fields of science, sparking revolutions wherever he went.Insightful and illuminating, The Man from the Future is a thrilling intellectual biography of the visionary thinker who shaped our century.

Audiokniha: Kniha o leadershipu od autora, který v životě žádnou knihu o vedení lidí nečetl. Knížku Tak to dělá Virgin, která je primárně o vedení lidí, napsal autor, který otevřeně přiznává, že nikdy v životě nečetl žádnou knihu o leadershipu. Přesto vám tento úspěšný podnikatel umožní nahlédnout pod pokličku jeho jedinečného stylu řízení lidí. Dozvíte se jak zábava, rodina, vášeň pro věc či umění naslouchat utvářejí to, co Bransonovi lidé se šibalským mrknutím označují jako „styl Virgin“. Bransonova kniha o vedení lidí nepřináší žádné zaručené návody a pravdy. Je v ní pouze a jen popsána autorova zkušenost, to jak věci dělá, co mu dobře funguje a čemu je lepší se vyhnout. Jsou zde shrnuty základní principy, na kterých jsou postavené funkční vztahy a to nejen v byznysu – jako například – jít za svými sny, důvěřovat pocitům, naslouchat druhým, nechat se ovlivnit okolím (zpětná vazba), být odpovědný za své jednání, mít vášeň pro vše co děláme, komunikovat a spolupracovat, vyhnout se zbytečnému komplikování věcí, říkat, co si myslíme atd. Neobyčejné zkušenosti se vztahy nejen z oblasti byznysu vám předává člověk, který v šestnácti nedodělal školu, trpí dyslexií a v životě nepracoval pod žádným zaměstnavatelem – vždy řídil jen sám sebe. Sir Richard Branson je dnes velice úspěšný mezinárodní podnikatel, dobrodruh, světová ikona a zakladatel skupiny Virgin Group.
