THE MUST-HAVE AUTOBIOGRAPHY FROM CRICKET LEGEND, JIMMY ANDERSONSHORTLISTED FOR THE 2025 CHARLES TYRWHITT SPORTS BOOK AWARDS'Revealing and often moving' - Guardian'Brilliant, emotive' - Daily Mail21 years, 188 Test Matches, 704 Test Wickets.This is Jimmy's story: an intimate, honest reflection told with his trademark humility and dry humour. From growing up in. Burnley as an outsider, isolated at school, bunking off, dreaming of being somewhere - anywhere - else, to dominating the 22 yards of the wicket as part of the deadliest England attack ever assembled.Jimmy takes us inside the dressing room, to those unforgettable moments: his debut under Nasser Hussain, facing off the Aussies with Monty Panesar, Kevin Pietersen's 'textgate' and that Mitchell Johnson incident. He reflects on the intense rivalries with Michael Clarke and Sachin Tendulkar and the burgeoning friendships with Alastair Cook and Stuart Broad. Delving behind the cricket, Jimmy reveals his experiences of personal loss alongside the pain of professional injury, and the strength he found from his marriage and the arrival of his two children.Finding the Edge is a front-row seat at the greatest games of the last two decades as England journey from perennial losers to world number one. But, above all, it is a coming-of-age story that reveals the real Jimmy Anderson: vulnerable, introspective, relentlessly determined, constantly evolving - a bowler unequalled, a career like no other.

Putování po českých hradech (1814-1818) - Karel Kramerius, Marcela Kalašová

Paralelní česko-německá kniha cestovních deníků mladého Karla Krameria (jednoho ze synů známého obrozenského nakladatele a novináře Václava Matěje Krameria), zachycuje jeho prázdninové cesty po Čechách. Hlavním (ač ne jediným) cílem jeho cest byly hrady či hradní zříceniny jako předmět raného romantického zájmu o památky dávné minulosti. Text deníků doprovodil Kramerius kresbami hradů, jež jsou také součástí edice. Deníky byly vedeny německy, pro potřeby této edice byl pořízen moderní český překlad. Kniha je vybavena důkladným poznámkovým aparátem a doprovozena rozsáhlou úvodní studií o životních osudech Karla Krameria a fenoménu romantického putování na hrady.

Stable Core Training - Joyce Kramer

Creative concepts and exercises that fundamentally improve your riding foundation, enabling you to excel in any training system or discipline. When horsewoman and certified personal trainer Joyce Kramer discovered that the riders most committed to fitness were not reaping the benefits of their improved athleticism on horseback, she abandoned the standard protocol for developing strength, endurance, and stability. Her background in the study of movement and holding patterns enabled her to develop her own unique approach to physical training capable of improving riding function and performance in such dramatic ways, it can bring out what she calls the ''inner elite rider'' in everyone. Using phenomenal hand-drawn imagery and engaging photographs of her own students at work, Kramer begins her book by clarifying the four most important ingredients to riding in harmony with an equine partner, as well as the aspects that nurture a sense of ''feel'' in the rider: Alignment; Centering; Grounding; Positive Tension. The second part of the book focuses on rider position, deconstructing the body''s sections and again using imagery to enable readers to connect all their ''parts'' into one cohesive, breathing, supple ''whole.'' An optimal position allows the horse to carry the rider comfortably and efficiently, promoting performance to the very best of his ability. Finally, Kramer takes the reader on a journey to the ''deep core,'' which she has identified as key not only to limiting extraneous movement of the exterior body visible to others, but also to the energy exchange at the most exciting level of connection with a horse. Bones, internal organs, and spinal stabilizers are engaged on the ground and in the saddle, using sound cues, proprioceptive props, and imagery, with mind-blowing results. With hundreds of images, tips, and exercises that can be modified according to age and ability, and an excitingly fresh perspective, this book can be the key to any rider reaching the next level in the saddle - whether that means excelling in a whole new division of competition, or recovering or rebuilding after time away from the sport. Every page is full of fun, engaging answers to your riding questions, ideas for clearing your stumbling blocks, and the endless promise of pursuing an activity you love in the company of your horse.

Breaking Through Bias - Alton B. Harris, Andrea S. Kramer

Fully Revised Second EditionSince Breaking Through Bias was published in 2016, the #MeToo movement has exposed just how pervasive sexual harassment is in the workplace; the increase in public misogynistic comments has made clear that explicit gender bias is not a thing of the past; and stay-at-home orders and school closings due to Covid-19 have brought into even sharper focus the discriminatory impact of the unequal division of child care and household responsibilities between most couples. In this Second Edition of Breaking Through Bias, the authors, Kramer and Harris, explain how these recent developments fit into a larger pattern of implicit or unconscious gender bias that imposes serious obstacles to women''s career advancement. They argue persuasively, however, that while this bias is the result of deeply rooted gender stereotypes, women can avoid or overcome its discriminatory consequences by the effective use of "attuned gender communication" to manage the impressions other people have of them. Kramer and Harris illustrate the use of attuned gender communication in each of the contexts in which gender bias manifests itself: negative bias (women are not as talented as men), benevolent bias (women need men''s support), age bias (older women are not effective workers), motherhood bias (women with children are not committed to their careers), and self-limiting bias (women believing themselves not suited for particular roles). Drawing on decades of experience supervising, training, evaluating, mentoring, and sponsoring thousands of women as well as exhaustive social science research, Kramer and Harris present in this updated and fully revised Second Edition unique, practical, and highly effective advice women can use to break through bias and achieve the career success they desire and deserve.

Death of the Great Man - Peter D. Kramer

In a novel that’s part comic mystery, part political satire, and part case vignette, a psychiatrist reviews his involvement with a narcissistic national leader who has turned up dead on the consulting room couch.When Peter D. Kramer wrote about his work with psychiatric patients in books like Listening to Prozac and Should You Leave?, Joyce Carol Oates said, “To read his prose on virtually any subject is to be provoked, enthralled, illuminated.” When Kramer switched to fiction, Publishers Weekly wrote, “The depth, quality, and ambition of Kramer’s prose will surprise those expecting a superficial crossover effort.” In his new novel, Death of the Great Man, Kramer uses those literary skills to introduce readers to an unforgettable character, Henry Farber, a well-meaning psychiatrist forced into hiding when the nation’s chief executive—a narcissistic autocrat in his disastrous second term—is found dead on the consulting room couch. From an isolated bungalow, Farber sets out to clear his name while offering an intimate view of a flawed populist leader. What begins as comic mystery and political satire matures into a moving journey of self-exploration and a commentary on the fate of truth-telling in an era when lying has become a norm in public life.

The Butlerian Jihad - Kevin James Anderson, Brian Herbert

Frank Herbert's Dune series is one of the great creations of imaginative literature, science fiction's answer to The Lord of the Rings.Decades after Herbert's original novels, the Dune saga was continued by Frank Herbert's son, Brian Herbert, in collaboration with Kevin J. Anderson. Working from Frank Herbert's own notes, the acclaimed authors reveal the chapter of the Dune saga most eagerly anticipated by readers: the Butlerian Jihad.Throughout the Dune novels, Frank Herbert frequently referred to the war in which humans wrested their freedom from "thinking machines." In Dune: The Butlerian Jihad, Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson bring to life the story of that war, a tale previously seen only in tantalizing hints and clues. Finally, we see how Serena Butler's passionate grief ignites the struggle that will liberate humans from their machine masters; here is the amazing tale of the Zensunni Wanderers, who escape bondage to flee to the desert world where they will declare themselves the Free Men of Dune. And here is the backward, nearly forgotten planet of Arrakis, where traders have discovered the remarkable properties of the spice melange....

This publication accompanies the Jerwood/FVU Awards 2016, for which emerging artists Karen Kramer and Alice May Williams were commissioned to create major new works. The artists’ works respond in different ways to the theme of ‘Borrowed Time’, with its allusion to escalating levels of personal and national debt and a wider feeling of economic unease or ecological threat caused by our exploitation of natural resources and the impact it has on the environment.With dedicated texts by Steven Bode and an essay by Laurence Scott, the publication probes these ideas and explores the ways in which the theme resonates with the new works by Kramer and Williams.The Jerwood/FVU Awards are a collaboration between Jerwood Charitable Foundation and FVU in association with CCA, Glasgow and University of East London.

Flossing - Denis Krämer, Andreas Ahlorn

Flossing, česky natažení, je technika, při které se terapeutického cíle dosahuje kompresí vyvolanou ovíjením postižených míst pružnými gumovými páskami. Je to moderní terapeutická metoda, jejíž pomocí lze mírnit chronické i akutní bolesti a urychlit proces léčby zranění. Jednička mezi německými odborníky na flossing, fyzioterapeut Andreas Ahlhorn v této knize popisuje různé oblasti využití a na základě konkrétních potíží vysvětluje, proč a jakým způsobem dokáže flossing "léčit". Flossing lze využít i ke zlepšení fyzické výkonnosti. Krátkodobé "podvázání" jednotlivých částí těla flossingovou páskou umožňuje mnohem rychlejší regeneraci svalů, šlach, kloubů a fascií. Spoluautor, sportovní fyzioterapeut a osobní trenér Dennis Krämer představuje více než 50 cvičení, která lze kombinovat s flossingem za účelem zlepšení mobility a pohyblivosti tělesných partií ošetřovaných flossingovou páskou.

Texty z let 1803-1804, v nichž autor seznamuje českého čtenáře počátku 19. století s reáliemi Indického subkontinentu a Šrí Lanky a které jsou vůbec prvními česky psanými zprávami srovnatelného rozsahu o těchto zemích, představují zároveň významný reprezentativní vzorek česky psané osvícenské didaktické literatury a svědčí o autorově programové snaze po vzdělávání a aktivní osvětě - či přímo "osvěcování" - venkovského čtenářstva. Vlastní text edice je doplněn podrobnými komentáři, jejichž úkolem je především identifikace četných indických reálií a také vysvětlení množství "aktuálních" dobových narážek, s nimiž oba texty hojně operují; edice je též vybavena diferenčním slovníčkem, usnadňujícím četbu raně obrozenského textu. Závěrečná studie Jiřího Hubáčka mapuje obraz Indie v českojazyčné produkci konce 18. století, na jehož základě vymezuje význam a funkce obou předkládaných Krameriových textů a zasazuje je do kontextu dobového evropského myšlení o Indii.

Selected Poems - Zbigniew Herbert

Published for the centenary of his birth, a gathering of lucid, intensely lyrical poetry from one of the twentieth century’s pre-eminent literary voicesbe courageous when reason fails you be courageousin the final reckoning it is the only thing that countsZbigniew Herbert was one of the best-known and most-translated poets of post-war Poland, opposed alike to Communism, Fascism, nationalism and the Church, yet moved, throughout his work, by ‘a powerful sense of right and wrong without a corresponding belief in a system’ (New York Times).His is a poetry of compression, lucidity and profound humanity. The universe he conjures is deeply informed not only by his own time, but by history – by that of the Medieval Mediterranean and Central Europe, as much as of the Classical world – and by a taste for historical and philosophical paradox. In the early and middle works, the figure of the trickster never seems far from view. Throughout, Herbert asks questions about the nature and needs of sentient beings. His desire, always, is to ‘touch the essence’: to get to the heart of life.Selected with an introduction and afterword by J. M. Coetzee and Alissa Valles, this outstanding gathering from the full range of Herbert’s poetic output invites readers to experience the beauty and profundity of a remarkable body of work.

Experiencing Sound - Lawrence Kramer

From the winds of Mars to a baby's first laugh, a prolific philosopher-composer reflects on the profound imperative of sound in everyday life.  Experiencing Sound presents its subject as fundamental to all experience—sensation, perception, and understanding. Lawrence Kramer turns on its head the widespread notion that vision takes pride of place among the senses and demonstrates how paying attention to sound can transform how we make meaning out of experience.  Through a series of brief, lyrical forays, Kramer shows that sound, whether heard or unheard, is the object of a primary need and an essential component in the sensation of being alive and the perception of time. It is something that we may suffer—or be made to suffer—as well as enjoy. Like its predecessor The Hum of the World, this book ranges widely across music, philosophy, literature, art, media, and history, from classical antiquity to the present, as it invites us to experience sound anew.

Music and the Forms of Life - Lawrence Kramer

Inventors in the age of the Enlightenment created lifelike androids capable of playing music on real instruments. Music and the Forms of Life examines the link between such simulated life and music, which began in the era's scientific literature and extended into a series of famous musical works by Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven. Music invented auditory metaphors for the scientific elements of life (drive, pulse, sensibility, irritability, even metabolism), investigated the affinities and antagonisms between life and mechanism, and explored questions of whether and how mechanisms can come to life. The resulting changes in the conceptions of both life and music had wide cultural resonance at the time, and those concepts continued to evolve long after. A critical part of that evolution was a nineteenth-century shift in focus from moving androids to the projection of life in motion, culminating in the invention of cinema. Weaving together cultural and musical practices, Lawrence Kramer traces these developments through a collection of case studies ranging from classical symphonies to modernist projections of waltzing specters by Mahler and Ravel to a novel linking Bach's Goldberg Variations to the genetic code. The publisher gratefully acknowledges the generous support of the AMS 75 PAYS Fund of the American Musicological Society, supported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

Hired Guns - Amanda Kramer, Wayne Byrne

Hired Guns is a look across several decades of the music industry through the experiences and careers of a selection of professional female musicians. Those women profiled are members of influential, acclaimed bands and touring musicians with major acts; they each represent important music scenes and movements, having respectively emerged from and thrived in seminal moments of music such as the California hardcore punk scene, the Minneapolis alternative boom, and much more. This book presents a frank and unique female perspective on the music business, charting their professional challenges and triumphs, providing an insight into the machinations of the industry, and offering a glimpse into the education, work, and lifestyle required of such professionals.

The Progress Principle - Steven Kramer, Teresa Amabile

What really sets the best managers above the rest? It’s their power to build a cadre of employees who have great inner work lives—consistently positive emotions; strong motivation; and favorable perceptions of the organization, their work, and their colleagues. The worst managers undermine inner work life, often unwittingly.As Teresa Amabile and Steven Kramer explain in The Progress Principle, seemingly mundane workday events can make or break employees’ inner work lives. But it’s forward momentum in meaningful work—progress—that creates the best inner work lives. Through rigorous analysis of nearly 12,000 diary entries provided by 238 employees in 7 companies, the authors explain how managers can foster progress and enhance inner work life every day.The book shows how to remove obstacles to progress, including meaningless tasks and toxic relationships. It also explains how to activate two forces that enable progress: (1) catalysts—events that directly facilitate project work, such as clear goals and autonomy—and (2) nourishers—interpersonal events that uplift workers, including encouragement and demonstrations of respect and collegiality.Brimming with honest examples from the companies studied, The Progress Principle equips aspiring and seasoned leaders alike with the insights they need to maximize their people’s performance.

Mám klepátko od nehlídaných zahrad - Zbigniew Herbert

Rozsáhlý výbor z poezie jednoho ze zásadních polských básníků Zbigniewa Herberta připravil a přeložil Josef Mlejnek. Herbertova nezaměnitelná poetika, opřená o klasické vzdělání i výtvarnou citlivost, je dnes už dědictvím 20. století, stále však inspiruje svým nesmlouvavým postojem, nedůvěrou k myriádám obrazů nebo zacházením s emblematickou maskou-postavou pana Cogito.V českých překladech se básnické dílo Zbigniewa Herberta objevilo poprvé už na konci padesátých let především díky Vlastě Dvořáčkové, básníku Miroslavu Holubovi, který se s Herbertem osobně znal, nebo Miroslavu Červenkovi. Naopak eseje se dočkaly vydání až mnohem později. Nový výbor je také osobním pohledem Josefa Mlejnka na Herbertovo dílo - některé básně již česky vyšly a nyní jsou publikovány v novém překladu. Zbigniew Herbert (1924-1998) byl významný polský básník a esejista, stal se symbolem protikomunistického odporu v Polsku a byl několikrát nominovaný na Nobelovu cenu. Svou první básnickou knihu Struna světla vydal v roce 1956, v roce 1974 vychází jeho kniha Pan Cogito, jejíž hlavní stejnojmenná postava se pak objevuje i v následujících Herbertových knihách. Poslední sbírka Epilog bouře byla vydána v roce jeho úmrtí. Je také autorem knižních reportážních esejů Barbar v zahradě (1962), na které navázaly soubory Zátiší s udidlem (1993) a Labyrint u moře (2000), v nichž reflektuje své časté cesty do zahraničí, kde pobýval řadu měsíců, někdy i let. Ačkoli v exilu nikdy natrvalo nezůstal, pobyt mimo Polsko pomáhal Herbertovi vyrovnat se s komunistickou totalitou, a zároveň promýšlet vztah k evropskému kulturnímu dědictví a tradici.

Dvě zásadní práce jednoho z předních okultních spisovatelů první poloviny 20. století. Herbert Friteche, významný homeopat a žák Gustava Meyrinka, s odkazem na staré a osvědčené autority v oblasti mystiky a esoterního bádání vede své čtenáře k vnitřnímu probuzení a poznání vnitřní pravdy,. V pojednání Vyšší bdělost si dává Herbert Fritsche za cíl vytvořit jakousi základnu pro další studium Královského umění, "vytknout cestu, jež začíná právě tam, kde zrovna stojíme". Jde mu především o vnitřní vedení, aby již nebylo třeba jiného poučení než toho, jehož se nám dostane od probuzeného vlastního "já". V Malé učebnici bílé magie hovoří Fritsche o příslibu této cesty k Bohu a upozorňuje na svody černé magie. Fritsche se opírá zejména o texty a dílo Paracelsa, Swedenborga a Gustava Meyrinka.

Paul of Dune - Kevin James Anderson, Brian Herbert

Between the end of Frank Herbert''s Dune and his next novel Dune Messiah lies a mystery: how a hero adored by a planet became a tyrant hated by a universe. Paul of Dune begins the story of those twelve fateful years and the wars of the jihad of Paul Muad''Dib. It is an epic of battle and betrayal; of love and idealism; of ambition and intrigue. Above all, it is the story of how Paul Atreides - who achieved absolute power when scarcely more than a boy - changes from an idealist into a dictator who is the prisoner of the bureaucrats and fanatics who surround him. Have you read Dune? And have you read Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson''s novels continuing the story? The latest are Hunters of Dune and Sandworms of Dune.

A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism, and politics, Dune is a powerful, fanstastical tale that takes an unprecedented look into our universe, and is transformed by the graphic novel format. Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson's adaptation retains the integrity of the original novel, and Raul Allen and Patricia Martin's magnificent illustrations, along with cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz, bring the book to life for a new generation of readers.

Unselected Poems - Herbert W. N.

For many poets there comes a point in their careers when a Selected Poems seems a logical step. Their style is now established, their subject-matter is their own, and their greatest hits lend themselves to a succinct introduction to their career. But for WN Herbert, that was never what it was all about. The idea that he has had a career, let alone that it was ‘about’ anything, strikes him as extremely unlikely. Instead, he has always enjoyed the opportunity to head off in as many directions as possible. Usually at the same time. In addition to his main collections, WN Herbert has been involved in many collaborative side projects, arising from travel, dialogue, translation and the challenge of a new sequence or form. This book contains the best of his ‘unselected’ poems, including On Your Nerve: A Wake for Frank O’Hara, Don Juan’s Pilgrimage and his award-winning pamphlet, Murder Bear. Unselected Poems is an invitation to consider the less-travelled tracks we might have taken and could yet follow, whether as writers or readers. Set off, if you would – follow that bear!
