Ranjit Bolt updates Much Ado About Nothing with a merry new translation.  In Much Ado About Nothing, a series of miscommunications and misunderstandings spiral out of control, leaving two sets of lovers to untangle their words and their hearts. Ranjit Bolt, an accomplished translator, takes on Shakespeare’s well-loved comedy to update much of the obscure language while maintaining the humor, characterization, and wit that audiences know and love. For modern readers, Beatrice, Benedick, Hero, and Claudio are just as enchanting as always—and perhaps funnier than ever before. This translation of Much Ado About Nothing was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present work from “The Bard” in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare’s verse. Enlisting the talents of a diverse group of contemporary playwrights, screenwriters, and dramaturges from diverse backgrounds, this project reenvisions Shakespeare for the twenty-first century. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print—a new First Folio for a new era.

Much Ado About The Duke je pánská parfémová voda, která vyniká kořeněnými a dřevitými akordy. Originální vůně pro muže, kteří touží po dobrodružství a nových zážitcích. Je to vůně, která přináší pocit svěžesti a luxusu, a připomíná nám, že život je plný příležitostí a dobrodružství, které stojí za to prožít. Akordy růžového pepře prostoupí intenzivní dřevité tóny vetiveru, zatímco smyslné akordy kůže si pohrávají s osvěžující a povzbuzující notou ginu. Penhaligon's Lon­don je britský parfumérský dům založený v roce 1870 Williamem Penhaligonem. Dům Penhaligon's, který vznikl původně jako holičství, nabídl svou první vůni v roce 1872, Hammam Bouquet. Vůně byly pravidelně vydávány z původního obchodu na Jermyn Street, dokud nebyl zničen v roce 1941. Obchod zmizel, ale vůně společnosti vydržely a v roce 1956 byla Penhaligon's u­dělena cena Royal Warrant od vévody z Edinburghu. Vůně byla uvedena na trh v roce 2016 a její tvůrkyní je Daphné Bugey.

In this groundbreaking book, Keith Law, baseball writer for The Athletic and author of the acclaimed Smart Baseball, offers an era-spanning dissection of some of the best and worst decisions in modern baseball, explaining what motivated them, what can be learned from them, and how their legacy has shaped the game.For years, Daniel Kahneman’s iconic work of behavioral science Thinking Fast and Slow has been required reading in front offices across Major League Baseball. In this smart, incisive, and eye-opening book, Keith Law applies Kahneman’s ideas about decision making to the game itself.Baseball is a sport of decisions. Some are so small and routine they become the building blocks of the game itself—what pitch to throw or when to swing away. Others are so huge they dictate the future of franchises—when to make a strategic trade for a chance to win now, or when to offer a millions and a multi-year contract for a twenty-eight-year-old star. These decisions have long shaped the behavior of players, managers, and entire franchises. But as those choices have become more complex and data-driven, knowing what’s behind them has become key to understanding the sport.

Tato kniha představuje výsledky detailní studie periodické tabulky, které ukazují vztah mezi chemií a homeopatií a zdůrazňuje vědecký základ homeopatie. Detailně studuje minerální léky i s případy, které vyvolávají v mysli jasné obrazy. Zahrnuje množství testů léků, vedených Rajanem na jeho seminářích na různých místech světa, které nabízí nový náhled na tyto léky. Na studii několika rostlinných a živočišných léků navazuje diferenciální analýza léků různých říší - tato analýza se osvědčí pro orientaci v oblasti homeopatie. Na konci knihy je uvedeno mnoho originálních myšlenek homeopatické filozofie, hlavními z nich jsou jeho úvahy o tom, jak a proč se vyvíjí orgánová patologie. Rajan čerpá ze svých rozsáhlých klinických zkušeností, aby nám předal mnoho originálních názorů, které provokují k zamyšlení. Tato kniha je jasně srozumitelná, i když je plná bohatě ilustrovaných příkladů a vzbudí zájem všech vážně studujících umění jak léčit.

They are the masters of deception, the jokers in the pack; illusionists conjuring wickets out of thin air with nothing more than an ambled approach and a wonky grip. Not for them the brutish physicality of the pace bowler nor the reactive slogging of the batsman. Theirs is a more cerebral art. They stand alone in a team sport. They are Twirlymen.Having himself failed through a combination of injury and indolence to become a leg-spinner of renown, Amol Rajan pays homage to that most eccentric of all sporting heroes - the spin bowler. On a journey through cricket history Rajan introduces us to the greatest purveyors of that craft, from W. G. Grace to Graeme Swann via Clarrie Grimmet''s flipper, Muttiah Muralitharan''s helicopter wrist, Shane Warne''s ball-of-the-century and all the rest.

Na stránkách této knihy nás Dr. Rajan Sankaran seznamuje se svou metodou diagnostikování pocitů, jíž se zasloužil o nejvýznamnější rozvoj homeopatické léčby od doby jejího objevu na konci osmnáctého století. Pocitová metoda vysvětluje, že způsob, jakým vnímáme životní tlak a stres, je tvarován vnitřním vzorcem neboli "druhou písní", která má původ v jedné ze tří přírodních říší: živočišné, rostlinné nebo minerální. Tato vnitřní píseň má podobu neměnného pocitu v těle a mysli a manifestuje se skrze nemoci a chronické potíže. Vnitřní melodie pravidelně se opakujících vzorců, jimiž reaguje na životní situace - ať je to soužitěživý lev, citlivá sedmikráska nebo nějaký jasně strukturovaný chemický prvek - pohání a řídí naše emoce, sny, ambice, kariéru i vztahy a je zásadním faktorem, který vysvětluje, proč má stres na každého člověka jiný dopad.
