First published as a lavish colour coffeetable book, this new expanded paperback edition has double the original number of contributions from many celebrities including Bill Bryson, Michael Palin, Eric Clapton, Bryan Ferry, Sebastian Faulks, Kate Adie, Kevin Spacey, Gavin Pretor-Pinney, Richard Mabey , Simon Jenkins, John Sergeant, Benjamin Zephaniah, Joan Bakewell, Antony Beevor, Libby Purves, Jonathan Dimbleby, and many more: and a new preface by HRH Prince Charles.

A Short History of Nearly Everything - Bill Bryson

Bill Bryson describes himself as a reluctant traveller: but even when he stays safely in his own study at home, he can't contain his curiosity about the world around him. A Short History of Nearly Everything is his quest to find out everything that has happened from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization - how we got from there, being nothing at all, to here, being us. Bill Bryson's challenge is to take subjects that normally bore the pants off most of us, like geology, chemistry and particle physics, and see if there isn't some way to render them comprehensible to people who have never thought they could be interested in science. It's not so much about what we know, as about how we know what we know. How do we know what is in the centre of the Earth, or what a black hole is, or where the continents were 600 million years ago? How did anyone ever figure these things out?On his travels through time and space, he encounters a splendid collection of astonishingly eccentric, competitive, obsessive and foolish scientists, like the painfully shy Henry Cavendish who worked out many conundrums like how much the Earth weighed, but never bothered to tell anybody about many of his findings. In the company of such extraordinary people, Bill Bryson takes us with him on the ultimate eye-opening journey, and reveals the world in a way most of us have never seen it before.

At Home - Bill Bryson

In At Home, Bill Bryson applies the same irrepressible curiosity, irresistible wit, stylish prose and masterful storytelling that made A Short History of Nearly Everything one of the most lauded books of the last decade, and delivers one of the most entertaining and illuminating books ever written about the history of the way we live. Bill Bryson was struck one day by the thought that we devote a lot more time to studying the battles and wars of history than to considering what history really consists of: centuries of people quietly going about their daily business - eating, sleeping and merely endeavouring to get more comfortable. And that most of the key discoveries for humankind can be found in the very fabric of the houses in which we live.This inspired him to start a journey around his own house, an old rectory in Norfolk, wandering from room to room considering how the ordinary things in life came to be. Along the way he did a prodigious amount of research on the history of anything and everything, from architecture to electricity, from food preservation to epidemics, from the spice trade to the Eiffel Tower, from crinolines to toilets; and on the brilliant, creative and often eccentric minds behind them. And he discovered that, although there may seem to be nothing as unremarkable as our domestic lives, there is a huge amount of history, interest and excitement - and even a little danger - lurking in the corners of every home.

Down Under - Bill Bryson

It is the driest, flattest, hottest, most desiccated, infertile and climatically aggressive of all the inhabited continents and still Australia teems with life - a large portion of it quite deadly. In fact, Australia has more things that can kill you in a very nasty way than anywhere else. Ignoring such dangers - and yet curiously obsessed by them - Bill Bryson journeyed to Australia and promptly fell in love with the country. And who can blame him? The people are cheerful, extrovert, quick-witted and unfailingly obliging: their cities are safe and clean and nearly always built on water; the food is excellent; the beer is cold and the sun nearly always shines. Life doesn't get much better than this...

Ľudské telo - Bill Bryson - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Celý život trávime v jednom tele, a predsa väčšina z nás v skutočnosti netuší, ako telo funguje a čo sa v ňom odohráva. História anatómie a medicíny je plná zabudnutých hrdinov, ohromujúcich príbehov a zaujímavých faktov. Mimochodom, od okamihu, ako ste začali čítať túto vetu, vo vašom tele vznikol asi milión červených krviniek. Audiokniha Ľudské telo je naozaj fascinujúca, komplexná a prístupná. Vydajte sa s autorom na cestu do hlbín ľudského tela a zistite, ako funguje, čo sa v ňom môže pokaziť a ako skvele sa dokáže uzdraviť. Uvedomíte si, že sme oveľa zložitejší a záhadnejší, než ste si mysleli. Audiokniha je napísaná z pohľadu erudovaného a inteligentného laika, ktorý venoval veľa času štúdiu rozličných zdrojov informácií a jednotlivé aspekty ľudského tela ho úprimne fascinovali. Téma bola preňho nová, vo svojej kariére sa totiž venoval najmä cestopisom a dejinám vedy. Dielo poteší najmä čitateľov, ktorí hľadajú zaujímavosti o ľudskom tele a o chorobách. Nenájdete v ňom systematický prehľad ľudského tela, chorôb, diagnostiky či liečby. Práve tento aspekt mu vyčítali niektorí kritici a čitatelia. Bill Bryson však evidentne postupoval podľa kľúča, ktorý si stanovil – informácie museli byť zaujímavé, neošúchané a k veci. Ďalším pútavým aspektom je autorov dôvtip, nadhľad, zmysel pre humor a pokora, s ktorou nepriamo upozorňuje, že o ľudskom tele a jeho fungovaní ešte vieme veľmi málo. "Niet pochýb, že táto planéta patrí mikroorganizmom. Sme tu preto, lebo im neprekážame. Vôbec nás však nepotrebujú. Bez nich by sme navyše do dňa zomreli." "Nechápte ma zle. Srdce je úžasný orgán a plne si zasluhuje našu chválu a vďaku, no s emočnou pohodou nijako nesúvisí." "(Srdce) je vskutku pozoruhodný orgán. Ibaže mu vôbec nezáleží na vašom ľúbostnom živote." "Väčšina najlepšej techniky, aká existuje na Zemi, sa skrýva priamo v našom vnútri a každý ju pokladá takmer za samozrejmú."

Made In America - Bill Bryson

Funny, wise, learned and compulsive. (GQ). Bill Bryson turns away from travelling the highways and byways of middle America, so hilariously depicted in his bestselling The Lost Continent, The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid and Notes from a Big Country, for a fast, exhilarating ride along the Route 66 of American language and popular culture. In Made in America, Bryson tells the story of how American arose out of the English language, and along the way, de-mythologizes his native land - explaining how a dusty desert hamlet with neither woods nor holly became Hollywood, how the Wild West wasn't won, why Americans say 'lootenant' and 'Toosday', how they were eating junk food long before the word itself was cooked up - as well as exposing the true origins of the words G-string, blockbuster, poker and snafu. "A tremendously sassy work, full of zip, pizzazz and all those other great American qualities." (Will Self, Independent on Sunday).

Stručná história takmer všetkého - Bill Bryson - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Neuveriteľná poznávacia jazda svetom vedy. Zem je náš jediný domov v celom vesmíre. Poznáte ju dobre? Určite ste sa o nej všeličo dozvedeli na hodinách geografie, biológie, fyziky či chémie, no jej skutočný príbeh je oveľa fascinujúcejší. Audiokniha Stručná história takmer všetkého vás zoberie na jedinečné potulky. Zo žeravého jadra planéty sa vyšplháte až na Mount Everest, od veľkého tresku prejdete až po 21. storočie. Nazriete do vnútra atómu aj za oponu nekonečného vesmíru. Za všetky poznatky, ktoré v súčasnosti máme, vďačíme géniom, odvážlivcom a pracovitým vedcom minulosti, ktorí hľadaniu pravdy obetovali roky mravčej práce. Občas im však pomohla aj šťastná náhoda. Súčasťou príbehu Zeme ste aj vy, lebo všetko, čo sa tu zatiaľ odohralo, nepochybne viedlo k vašej existencii. Bill Bryson sa opisuje ako zdráhavý cestovateľ, ale záujem o okolitý svet neudrží na uzde ani vtedy, keď zostane v bezpečí domova. Audiokniha Stručná história takmer všetkého predstavuje jeho úsilie pochopiť všetko, čo sa udialo od veľkého tresku až do nástupu civilizácie – ako sme sa z fázy, keď sme neboli vôbec ničím, dostali do prítomnosti, keď sme ľuďmi. Zaumienil si, že preštuduje predmety, ktoré väčšinu ľudí zvyčajne na smrť nudia, napríklad geológiu, chémiu a fyziku, a že sa ich pokúsi podať tak, aby ich pochopil aj človek, ktorému dovtedy ani len nenapadlo, že by ho mohla zaujať veda.

Mrs England (Defekt) - Stacey Hallsová

From the bestselling author of The Familiars and The Foundling comes Stacey Halls's most compelling and ambitious novel to date. 'Something's not right here.' I was aware of Mr Booth's eyes on me, and he seemed to hold his breath. 'What do you mean?' 'In the house. With the family.' West Yorkshire, 1904. When newly graduated nurse Ruby May takes a position looking after the children of Charles and Lilian England, a wealthy couple from a powerful dynasty of mill owners, she hopes it will be the fresh start she needs. But as she adapts to life at the isolated Hardcastle House, it becomes clear there's something not quite right about the beautiful, mysterious Mrs England. Distant and withdrawn, Lilian shows little interest in her children or charming husband, and is far from the 'angel of the house' Ruby was expecting. As the warm, vivacious Charles welcomes Ruby into the family, a series of strange events forces her to question everything she thought she knew. Ostracised by the servants and feeling increasingly uneasy, Ruby must face her demons in order to prevent history from repeating itself. After all, there's no such thing as the perfect family - and she should know. Simmering with slow-burning menace, Mrs England is a portrait of an Edwardian marriage, weaving an enthralling story of men and women, power and control, courage, truth and the very darkest deception. Set against the atmospheric West Yorkshire landscape, Stacey Halls' third novel proves her one of the most exciting and compelling new storytellers of our times.

Icons of Men’s Style mini

Womenswear progresses in leaps and bounds, fuelled by the readiness of women to wear what may at the time be perceived as the radical or outrageous. Not so menswear -menswear evolves, slowly. But from what? Behind nearly every item in the modern male wardrobe is a 'first of its kind' - the definitive item, often designed by a single company or brand for specialist use, on which all subsequent versions have been based (and originals of which are now collector items in the booming vintage market).The T-shirt, for example, may now be an innocuous, everyday item, but was created by American company Hanes for US Navy personnel at the turn of the 20th century and was subsequently adopted by sportsmen and bikers. Other items have been designed for sport, farm work, protection and made their way into everyday usage.Icons of Men's Style examines, garment by garment, the most important and famous of these products - their provenance and history, the stories of their design, the brand/company that started it all and how the item shaped the way men dress today.

From battlefields, cathedrals and museums to castles and stately homes, from the Lancastrians and Yorkists to the Roundheads, Royalists and an abundance of kings called Edward (and Henry!), the history of our island nation unravels its rich tapestry beneath our very feet - if only you know where to look.Take, for instance, the Tower of London, which housed a royal menagerie - featuring lions, an African elephant and even a polar bear - some three hundred years before it bore witness to Anne Boleyn''s final jest with her executioner. Or the Liverpool Docks, which in the 19th century handled a whopping 9% of global trade. Or, indeed, the atomic weapons base at Orford Ness, which was used to secretly test nuclear weapons during the most heated periods of the Cold War. . . You do not have to travel far for English history to spring into rich and vivid life.In their Story of England, historian Dan Snow and the History Hit team take us on a journey through thousands of years of unceasing drama. It''s a tale of invaders and immigrants and visitors and what they brought here. It''s a tale of how our ancestors overcame, co-operated and shaped this country to their liking, affecting our landscape, our character, our language, industries, laws, religions and settlements with each passing century. And, ultimately, it''s a tale of how England came to be how it is today.

How to Rob the Bank of England - Clifford Thurlow, Keith Cheeseman

On a sunny May morning in 1990, a bank courier strode out of the Bank of England and, minutes later, was robbed at knifepoint of 301 bearer bonds valued at £292 million. It was the biggest theft in British history. The thing is... when Keith Cheeseman received a call from a disbarred lawyer connected to London's underworld and attended a meeting on the night of the robbery, he counted £427 million in bonds - £135 million more than the Bank of England had reported. As Keith set out to launder the bonds, Scotland Yard and the FBI were always one step ahead in tracking them down. Over the next eighteen months, two gangland figures were shot dead and more than eighty people were arrested. Keith was the only man ever jailed for the crime. Keith Cheeseman is the last of the old-time gangsters, a con man who detests violence, wears Savile Row suits and gold watches, and loves classic cars and good dining. He bought non-league Dunstable Town football club and signed Manchester United star George Best to play for the team. He knew the legendary Kray twins and killer Frankie Fraser once threatened to snuff him out over a game of chess. So what happened to the missing £135 million?In this breath-taking adventure, featuring colourful characters from showbusiness alongside royalty, the IRA and even Pablo Escobar, Clifford Thurlow reveals Keith Cheeseman's incredible true story for the first time.

The Fall of the House of Byron : Scandal and Seduction in Georgian England - Brand Emily

In the early eighteenth century, Newstead Abbey was among the most admired aristocratic homes in England. It was the abode of William, 4th Baron Byron - a popular amateur composer and artist - and his teenage wife Frances. But by the end of the century, the building had become a crumbling and ill-cared-for ruin. Surrounded by wreckage of his inheritance, the 4th Baron's dissipated son and heir William, 5th Baron Byron - known to history as the 'Wicked Lord' - lay on his deathbed alongside a handful of remaining servants and amidst a thriving population of crickets.This was the home that a small, pudgy boy of ten from Aberdeen - who the world would later come to know as Lord Byron, the Romantic poet, soldier, and adventurer - would inherit in 1798. His family, he would come to learn, had in recent decades become known for almost unfathomable levels of scandal and impropriety, from elopement, murder, and kidnapping to adultery, coercion, and thrilling near-death experiences at sea. Just as it had shocked the society of Georgian London, the outlandish and scandalous story of the Byrons - and the myths that began to rise around it - would his influence his life and poetry for posterity.The Fall of the House of Byron follows the fates of Lord Byron's ancestors over three generations in a drama that begins in rural Nottinghamshire and plays out in the gentlemen's clubs of Georgian London, amid tempests on far-flung seas, and in the glamour of pre-revolutionary France. A compelling story of a prominent and controversial characters, it is a sumptuous family portrait and an electrifying work of social history.
