Zaručí vám to, že budete odmalička poslúchať rodičov, dodržiavať školský poriadok, mať samé jednotky a promovať s červeným diplomom, vysnívanú kariéru s perfektným platom a nekonečnými výhodami? Možno je vám jasné, že odpoveď je nie. Prečo sa teda stále riadime podobnými "overenými" radami? Vo svojej dôvtipnej a pútavej knihe Mýty o úspechu vám Eric Barker na základe príbehov a vedeckých poznatkov vysvetlí napríklad aj to: prečo sa z premiantov málokedy stanú milionári, prečo sú vaše slabiny v skutočnosti vašim devízami, čo sa môžete naučiť o spolupráci od členov gangov, pirátov alebo sériových vrahov, či vám k úspechu pomôže vyššie sebavedomie a čo si o tom myslia budhisti, ako získať nezlomné odhodlanie a výdrž, akú majú členovia jednotiek Navy SEALs či tí, čo prežili katastrofické nešťastia, ako v živote získať rovnováhu pomocou stratégie Čingischána a poučiť sa z chýb Einsteina či Spider-Mana. Prostredníctvom pútavých anekdot vám autor objasní, v čom spočíva rozdiel medzi mimoriadne úspešnými a neúspešnými ľuďmi, a prezradí, ako sa môžete aj vy priblížiť k tej prvej skupine.

AS HEARD ON RADIO 4''Utterly wonderful'' NINA STIBBE, author of Love, NinaTwenty hours have gone since I last wrote. I have been thinking of you. I shall think of you until I post this, and until you get it. Can you feel, as you read these words, that I am thinking of you now; aglow, alive, alert at the thought that you are in the same world, and by some strange chance loving me. In September 1943, Chris Barker was serving as a signalman in North Africa when he decided to brighten the long days of war by writing to old friends. One of these was Bessie Moore, a former work colleague. The unexpected warmth of Bessie''s reply changed their lives forever. Crossing continents and years, their funny, affectionate and intensely personal letters are a remarkable portrait of a love played out against the backdrop of the Second World War. Above all, their story is a stirring example of the power of letters to transform ordinary lives.

Eric Brown went to Germany in 1939 on an exchange course, and his first experience of the war came when the Gestapo arrested him, not knowing he was an RAF pilot. The rest is history. He is the only man alive to have flown every major and most minor combat aircraft of the Second World War (as well as all the early jets), and has been interviewed by the top Nazis. While testing the Nazi jets in war-stricken Germany, he interviewed (among others) Hermann Goering and Hanna Reitsch. A living legend among aviation enthusiasts, his amazing life story deserves to be told in full—from crashing in front of Winston Churchill to unmasking a Neo-Nazi ring in the 1950s to his terrifying flights in primitive jets and rockets.

Travis Barker’s soul-baring memoir chronicles the highlights and lowlights of the renowned drummer’s art and his life, including the harrowing plane crash that nearly killed him and his traumatic road to recovery—a fascinating never-before-told-in-full story of personal reinvention grounded in musical salvation and fatherhood.After breaking out as the acclaimed drummer of the multiplatinum punk band Blink-182, everything changed for Travis Barker. But the dark side of rock stardom took its toll: his marriage, chronicled for an MTV reality show, fell apart. Constant touring concealed a serious drug addiction. A reckoning did not truly come until he was forced to face mortality: His life nearly ended in a horrifying plane crash, and then his close friend, collaborator, and fellow crash survivor DJ AM died of an overdose.In this blunt, driving memoir, Barker ruminates on rock stardom, fatherhood, death, loss, and redemption, sharing stories shaped by decades’ worth of hard-earned insights. His pulsating memoir is as energetic as his acclaimed beats. It brings to a close the first chapters of a well-lived life, inspiring readers to follow the rhythms of their own hearts and find meaning in their lives.

''An outstanding work'' - CN Lester, author of Trans Like MeJoin the creators of Queer: A Graphic History (''Could totally change the way you think about sex and gender'' VICE) on an illustrated journey of gender exploration. Is masculinity ''toxic''? Why are public toilets such a political issue? How has feminism changed the available gender roles - and for whom? Why might we all benefit from challenging binary thinking about sex/gender?In this unique illustrated guide, Meg-John Barker and Jules Scheele travel through our shifting understandings of gender across time and space - from ideas about masculinity and femininity, to non-binary and trans genders, to intersecting experiences of gender, race, sexuality, class, disability and more. Tackling current debates and tensions, which can divide communities and even cost lives, Barker and Scheele look to the past and the future to explore how we might all approach gender in more caring and celebratory ways.
