Not being able to sleep is deeply frightening. We panic about our ability to cope with the demands of the next day; we panic that we are panicking; the possibility of sleep recedes ever further as the clock counts down to another exhausted, irritable dawn. Our societies have learnt to treat insomnia with the best applied discipline we know: medicine - in particular, with pills powerful enough to wrestle consciousness into submission. But there are other things to do besides, or alongside, medicalising insomnia. We can reflect on our sleeplessness, define it to ourselves and others, try to understand where it springs from in human nature and speculate on what it might - in its own confused way - be trying to tell us. This book is an eloquent guide to, and companion through, the long sleepless hours of the night. We come away from its soothing pages informed, consoled and armed with insights that will make us feel a lot less alone - as we wait for sleep, eventually, to come.

Have good intentions, over-parenting and the decline in unsupervised play led to the emergence of modern identity politics and hypersensitivity?In this book, free speech campaigner Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt investigate a new cultural phenomenon of "safetyism", beginning on American college campuses in 2014 and spreading throughout academic institutions in the English-speaking world.Looking at the consequences of paranoid parenting, the increase in anxiety and depression amongst students and the rise of new ideas about justice, Lukianoff and Haidt argue that well-intended but misguided attempts to protect young people are damaging their development and mental health, the functioning of educational systems and even democracy itself.

Zábavná kniha, v níž se smysl pro humor pojí s varováním před zhoubným účinkem konspiračních teorií. Od autora bestselleru Dějiny lidských průserů aneb Co všechno jsme podělali. Ať už jde o satanskou paniku nebo antivaxerské hnutí, přistání na Měsíci nebo aféru Pizzagate, my lidé jsme odjakživa měli ve zvyku věřit, že nám mocní lžou (a abychom si nekřivdili, občas tomu tak skutečně je). Ačkoli je ale zábava přihlásit se do skupinového chatu a potlachat si tam o chemtrails, události nedávných let nám ukázaly, že některé z těchto teorií si začaly žít vlastním životem - a že naše urputná honba za pravdou může ve skutečnosti páchat škody. Tom Phillips a Jonn Elledge nás berou na fascinující, pronikavé a mnohdy vtipné putování světem starých a nových konspiračních teorií a pokoušejí se zodpovědět klíčovou otázku naší doby: Jak se odhlásit z internetových fór, kde se probírá QAnon, a začít opět věřit tvrdým důkazům?

“Elvis who?” was photographer Alfred Wertheimer’s response when, in early 1956, RCA Victor asked him to photograph an up-and-coming crooner from Memphis. Little did Wertheimer know that this would be the job of his life: just 21 years old, Elvis Presley was—as we now know—about to become a legend. A fly on the wall in Presley's presence, Wertheimer took nearly 3,000 photographs of Elvis that year, creating a penetrating portrait of a man poised on the brink of superstardom.Extraordinary in its intimacy and unparalleled in its scope, Wertheimer's Elvis project immortalized a young man in the very process of making history. Elvis and the Birth of Rock and Roll collects Wertheimer’s most remarkable Elvis shots from that magical year, along with a selection of his historic 1958 pictures of the star being shipped off to an army base in Germany. Each chapter is illustrated with a poster by Hatch Show Print, one of the oldest letterpress print shops in America, which created many early Elvis posters in the 1950s.
