Hrdinové románu Cloud Cuckoo Land se snaží pochopit svět kolem sebe: Anna a Omeir na protějších stranách impozantního městského opevnění v průběhu obléhání Konstantinopole v roce 1453; pubertální idealista Seymour útočící na veřejnou knihovnu v současnosti; a Kontance na mezihvězdné lodi na cestě k exoplanetě několik desítek let v budoucnosti.Stejně jako Marie-Laure v románu Jsou světla, která nevidíme, jsou Anna, Omeir, Seymour a Konstance snílci a outsideři, kteří v sobě dokážou najít vynalézavost a naději uprostřed nebezpečí.Starobylý text – příběh Aethona, který se touží stát ptákem, aby mohl vzlétnout do utopického ráje v nebi – poskytuje těmto nezapomenutelným postavám útěchu, ale zároveň je pro ně jakýmsi tajemstvím. Doerr utkal tapiserii časů a míst, která odráží naše nesmírné propojení – navzájem mezi sebou, s jinými druhy, s těmi, kteří žili před námi, a s těmi, kteří tu budou, až už tady nebudeme.Cloud Cuckoo Land, věnovaný „knihovníkům dneška, včerejška a následujících let“, je neuvěřitelně krásný román od žijícího klasika americké literatury, v němž se minulost, přítomnost i budoucnost propojuje ve velkolepý celek.

When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea.

Medicínske médium ANTHONY WILLIAM pomohol desaťtisícom ľudí dostať sa zo zdravotných problémov, ktoré im lekári nesprávne diagnostikovali, nevhodne liečili alebo ich vyliečiť vôbec nevedeli. Darí sa mu to vďaka božskému hlasu, ktorý mu doslova šepká do ucha a prezrádza korene ľudských trápení či chorôb, ako aj prostriedky na ich liečbu. Vo svojej prvej knihe, v bestselleri New York Times Medicínske médium, Anthony prezradil, ako zostaviť špecifické liečebné plány na desiatky chorôb, pri ktorých výživa zohráva hlavnú úlohu. Jeho ďalšia kniha Medicínske médium: liečivá sila potravín sa bližšie zaoberá liečivými účinkami viac než päťdesiatich druhov ovocia, zeleniny, byliniek, korenín a divorastúcich plodov, ktorých konzumácia má jedinečný vplyv na zdravie človeka. Anthony vysvetľuje vlastnosti každej potraviny, symptómy a ochorenia, pri ktorých môže pomôcť alebo ich úplne vyliečiť, ako aj emočnú a duchovnú podporu každej z nich. Knihu dopĺňa lahodnými receptami, vďaka ktorým si maximálne vychutnáte blahodarné účinky každej potraviny. Sú to napríklad sladké zemiaky plnené dusenou kapustou alebo medovo-kokosová zmrzlina. V TEJTO KNIHE ZISTÍTE prečo sú lesné čučoriedky „potravinou vzkriesenia“, špargľa studňou mladosti a prečo nám citróny po zlých správach zdvihnú náladu, ktoré potraviny najúčinnejšie uľavia pri žlčníkových kameňoch, vysokom krvnom tlaku, mozgovej otupenosti, problémoch so štítnou žľazou, migréne a stovkách iných symptómov a ochorení, akú špecifickú liečivú moc má kivi, uhorka, mačací pazúr, kokos a veľa ďalších potravín, pravdu o maškrtných chutiach, ako využiť stres vo svoj prospech a aká je kľúčová úloha ovocia pri plodnosti. Informácie, ktoré nám Anthony prináša, sa často dramaticky líšia od tradičných poznatkov medicíny, a tak nečakajte len dookola opakované staré známe fakty. Naopak, pripravte sa na celkom nové poznatky napríklad o tom, že v pomarančoch je oveľa viac než len vitamín C. Pochopíte silu prostriedkov, vďaka ktorým sa vyliečite z chorôb a udržíte seba a svojich blízkych v bezpečí. Medicínske médium Anthony William radí, ako zmeniť svoj život pomocou skrytej liečivej sily ovocia a zeleniny. Okrem iného sa v knihe dočítate: podstatných špecifických faktoroch, ktoré majú na svedomí rastúci počet ochorení, ako aj o tom, ako pred nimi chrániť seba a svojich blízkych, potravinách, ktoré dokážu opraviť DNA, posilniť imunitný systém, zlepšiť duševné zdravie, alkalizovať všetky telesné sústavy či ochraňovať pred negatívnymi emóciami ostatných, technikách, ktoré z ovocia, zeleniny, byliniek, korenín a divo rastúcich plodov spravia liečivé potraviny ako stvorené pre individuálne potreby každého z nás. Dozviete sa tiež o konkrétnych potravinách, po ktorých sa oplatí siahnuť pri stovkách ochorení a príznakov, ako sú napríklad: úzkosť auto imunitné ochorenia rakovina cukrovka tráviace problémy únava potravinové alergie neplodnosť zápaly nespavosť lymská borelióza strata pamäti migréna ochorenie štítnej žľazy priberanie na hmotnosti

#1 on AMAZON, TWENTY WEEKS on the NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER LIST, and a WALL STREET JOURNAL, USA TODAY and PUBLISHERS WEEKLY NATIONAL BESTSELLEROver 1,000,000 copies sold despite censorship, boycotts from bookstores and libraries, and hit pieces against the author. Pharma-funded mainstream media has convinced millions of Americans that Dr. Anthony Fauci is a hero. Hands down, he is anything but. As director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Dr. Anthony Fauci dispenses $6.1 billion in annual taxpayer-provided funding for rigged scientific research, allowing him to dictate the subject, content, and outcome of scientific health research across the globe—truly a dark agenda. Fauci uses the financial clout at his disposal in a back handed manner to wield extraordinary influence over hospitals, universities, journals, and thousands of influential doctors and scientists—whose careers and institutions he has the power to ruin, advance, or reward in an authoritarian manner. During more than a year of painstaking and meticulous research on his laptop and through interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. unearthed a shocking story that obliterates media spin on Dr. Fauci . . . and that will alarm every American—Democrat or Republican—who cares about democracy, our Constitution, and the future of our children’s health.The Real Anthony Fauci reveals how “America’s Doctor” launched his career during the early AIDS crisis by partnering with pharmaceutical companies to sabotage safe and effective off-patent therapeutic treatments for AIDS. Fauci orchestrated fraudulent do-nothing studies, and then pressured US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulators into approving a deadly chemotherapy treatment he had good reason to know was worthless against AIDS. Fauci did the unthinkable and repeatedly violated federal laws to allow his Pharma partners to use impoverished and dark-skinned children as lab rats in beyond order, deadly experiments with toxic AIDS and cancer chemotherapies. In early 2000, Fauci shook hands with Bill Gates in the library of Gates’ $147 million Seattle mansion, cementing a partnership that would aim to control an increasingly profitable $60 billion global vaccine enterprise with unlimited growth potential. Through funding leverage and carefully cultivated personal relationships with heads of state and leading media and social media institutions, the Pharma-Fauci-Gates alliance exercises dominion over global health policy and our beautiful country. This is not just another political book. The Real Anthony Fauci details how Fauci, Gates, and their cohorts use their control of media outlets—both conservative and liberal leaning, scientific journals, key government and quasi-governmental agencies, global intelligence agencies, and influential scientists and physicians to flood the public with fearful propaganda about COVID-19 virulence and pathogenesis, and to muzzle debate and ruthlessly censor dissent.

Academy Award-winning actor Sir Anthony Hopkins delves into his illustrious film and theatre career, difficult childhood and path to sobriety in his honest, moving and long-awaited memoir. Born and raised in Port Talbot – a small Welsh steelworks town – amid war and depression, Sir Anthony Hopkins grew up around men who were tough, to say the least, and eschewed all forms of emotional vulnerability in favor of alcoholism and brutality. A struggling student in school, he was deemed by his peers, his parents and other adults as a failure with no future ahead of him. But, on a fateful Saturday night, the disregarded Welsh boy watched the 1948 adaptation of Hamlet, sparking a passion for acting that would lead him on a path that no one could have predicted. With candour and a voice that is both arresting and vulnerable, Sir Anthony recounts his various career milestones and provides a once-in-a-lifetime look into the brilliance behind some of his most iconic roles. His performance as Iago gets him admitted into the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and places him under the wing of Laurence Olivier. He meets Richard Burton by chance as a young boy in his art teacher’s apartment, and later, backstage before a performance of Equus as an established actor meeting his hero. His iconic portrayal of Hannibal Lecter was informed by the creepy performance of Bela Lugosi in Dracula and the razor-sharp precision of his acting teacher. He pulls raw emotion from the stoicism of his father and grandfather for an unforgettable performance in King Lear. Sir Anthony also takes a deeply honest look at the low points in his personal life. His addiction cost him his first marriage, his relationship with his only child, and nearly his life – the latter ultimately propelling him toward sobriety, a commitment he has maintained for nearly half a century. He constantly battles against the desire to move through life alone and avoid connection for fear of getting hurt – much like the men in his family – and as the years go by, he deals with questions of mortality, getting ready to discover what his father called The Big Secret. Featuring a special collection of personal photographs throughout, We Did OK, Kid is a raw and passionate memoir from a complex, iconic man who has inspired audiences with remarkable performances for over sixty years.

There are good publishers and there are great publishers. And then there⠙s Anthony Cheetham. Richard DawkinsIn November 1966, by way of Mexico City, Eton College, Balliol College, Oxford, and a Norwegian raspberry farm, Anthony Cheetham entered the doors of a publishing company for the first time to begin work as a junior editor. Fifty-eight years later he could look back on a career in which he had shaped the landscape of post-war British publishing to a significant degree, having established such prominent and notably successful companies as Century, Orion, Quercus and Head of Zeus, and launched imprints ⠓ from Abacus in 1973 to Zephyr in 2017 ⠓ that continue to flourish in the third decade of the twenty-first century.Starting with Homer⠙s Odyssey and ending with works by the evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins and the German historian Ernst Kantorowicz, Anthony Cheetham has selected fifty books as mileposts with which to map the course of his long and productive career. Many of these are titles that he himself published (Dune, The Thorn Birds, A Suitable Boy, Meetings with Remarkable Trees, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo); some are books he wished he had published (Stephen Hawking⠙s A Brief History of Time); others are simply masterworks that left an indelible mark on him (The Lord of the Rings, War and Peace).A Life in Fifty Books is an affectionate and revelatory account of a publishing life remarkable for its longevity, its entrepreneurial energy and for the breadth and catholicity of its output ⠓ which runs the gamut of seriousness from academically distinguished works of history, science and philosophy to Confessions of a Window Cleaner.

Anthony Bourdain once bragged he could “unload my opinion on anybody at any time. And that he did. His entire life seemed like a compendium of insightful (sometimes inflammatory) quotes, witty observations and touching moments he shared openly with the world. The man was never at a loss for words or an opinion. Bourdain’s unusual perspective was born out of decades of listening, tasting, writing and adventuring, allowing him to opine on everything from food to politics—with the same high level of enthusiasm.Regardless of the success he achieved, Bourdain’s stance was always that of a perpetual outsider who made it a point to embrace underrepresented voices, cultures, ideas and, yes, food. He found fame as a cook, a tv host and writer all while he circled the globe in search of more - encouraging his fans to take chances, step out of their comfort zones, and not just accept differences, but celebrate them. This handsome book examines the life of Anthony Bourdain, his knack for living with complete authenticity and the lessons we might learn by committing to the same level of passion and honesty. Bourdain once said “Essentially, I treated the world as my ashtray.” Just eight words. But he somehow painted a picture more detailed than others could in a novel. Anthony Bourdain Unloaded is a celebration of the man’s wit, intelligence and soul.

Štítna žľaza je dnes pálčivou témou na poli zdravia. Všetky generácie od dospelých a ich rodičov cez mladých až po deti, čoraz viac ľudí, najmä žien, počúva, že za ich únavu, priberanie, otupenosť mozgu, problémy s pamäťou, bolesti, tŕpnutie a necitlivosť, nespavosť, vypadávanie vlasov, návaly tepla, precitlivenosť na teploty, zápchu, nafukovanie, úzkosť, depresiu, búšenie srdca, stratu libida, nepokojné nohy a mnoho ďalších problémov môže práve štítna žľaza. Všetci by preto radi vedeli, ako sa vymaniť z jej vplyvu. Hoci sa štítnej žľaze dostáva stále viac pozornosti, jej symptómy nemiznú a chorí sa neuzdravujú. Diagnózy ako Hashimotova tyreoiditída alebo hypotyreóza nevysvetľujú rad zdravotných ťažkostí, ktorými pacienti trpia. Nikto si totiž nevšíma zásadný problém: problém so štítnou žľazou nie je skutočným pôvodcom choroby. Problémy štítnej žľazy sú len jedným z príznakov niečoho väčšieho ako táto malá žľaza na krku. Ide o čosi, čo je rozšírené v celom tele, o čosi invazívne, čo má na svedomí nekonečný zoznam symptómov a ochorení, ktoré sa pripisujú štítnej žľaze. V knihe Medicínske médium: Štítna žľaza prináša médium Anthony William revolučný pohľad na epidémiu ochorení štítnej žľazy. Povzbudzuje čitateľov, aby sa sami stali odborníkmi na svoju štítnu žľazu. Podrobne vysvetľuje, kde je hlavný problém, ako aj to, čo sa skrýva za zápalom, autoimunitnými ochoreniami a množstvom ďalších symptómov a chorôb. Nakoniec im poskytuje návody, ako si môžu zmeniť život, zachrániť štítnu žľazu a prinavrátiť si zdravie a vitalitu. Anthony pristupuje k problematike ako doposiaľ nikto iný a prináša skutočné výsledky, čo dosvedčia aj milióny jeho fanúšikov a nasledovateľov. TRETIA KNIHA ZO SÉRIE MEDICÍNSKE MÉDIUM Ak vás sužujú chronické zdravotné problémy, nie ste sami. Naopak, patríte medzi milióny ľudí trpiacich nevysvetliteľnými symptómami chorôb, ktoré lekárske komunity začali spájať so štítnou žľazou. Rovnako ako oni, aj vy by ste radi poznali skutočnú pravdu o štítnej žľaze. Už sto rokov čakáme od lekárov bližšie vysvetlenia problémov štítnej žľazy, no tie stále neprichádzajú. Ani najväčší odborníci totiž zatiaľ celkom nechápu, čo naozaj spôsobuje vaše utrpenie. Diagnóza Hashimotova tyreoiditída neznamená, že telo napáda samo seba. Aj za rakovinou štítnej žľazy sa skrýva viac, ako nám tvrdia. Nemusíte podľahnúť zúfalstvu, ak už štítnu žľazu nemáte. Za ochorenie štítnej žľazy nemôže ani genetika. Dnešné diagnózy chorôb štítnej žľazy nevysvetľujú roky trápenia a boja so záhadnými symptómami. Nemusíte čakať ďalších 10, 20, 30 alebo viac rokov, kým medicína nájde skutočné odpovede. Nemali by ste už stráviť ani deň, nieto ešte desaťročie pripútaní na lôžko, prežívajúc zo dňa na deň s pocitom, že zdravie vám nikto nevráti. Za natoľko rozšírenými chorobami štítnej žľazy, ktoré nás v súčasnosti sužujú, je oveľa viac, než sme doposiaľ objavili. V tejto knihe si prečítate informácie, ktoré nepripomínajú nič, čo ste už počuli. Je načase, aby ste získali kontrolu nad svojím zdravím a stali sa odborníkom na štítnu žľazu. Okrem iného sa dozviete o skutočných príčinách a účinnej liečbe desiatok symptómov a ochorení, ako sú: bolesti úzkosť a depresia autoimunitné ochorenia otupenosť mozgu a neschopnosť sústrediť sa rakovina Epsteinov-Barrovej vírus tehotenské komplikácie únava mononukleóza fibromyalgia a chronický únavový syndróm rednutie a vypadávanie vlasov Hashimotova tyreoiditída bolesti hlavy a migréna búšenie srdca závraty hypertyreóza hypotyreóza symptómy menopauzy nevysvetliteľné priberanie poruchy spánku tŕpnutie a necitlivosť
