Těsně pod vrcholem 3190 metrů vysoké hory ve východním Afghánistánu zuřila před svítáním 4. března 2002 prudká bitva. John Chapman, speciální taktický operátor amerického letectva, a hrstka příslušníků Navy SEAL se proti přesile bojovníků Al-Káidy snažila vystoupat na vrchol v zoufalém pokusu najít ztraceného spolubojovníka. Chapman, který akci velel, utrpěl při prvním útoku zranění. Velitel jeho skupiny Navy SEAL nařídil ústup v přesvědčení, že je mrtvý. Chapman přišel znovu k vědomí osamocený a ze tří stran se k němu blížil nepřítel. John Chapman poté prokázal neuvěřitelnou odvahu, aby nejprve zachránil životy svých týmových kolegů SEAL. S vědomím, že je smrtelně zraněn, se sám střetl s dvacítkou ostřílených bojovníků, aby zachránil životy členů přicházejícího záchranného družstva. Za svou statečnost obdržel posmrtně Medaili cti. Chapman je prvním příslušníkem letectva za posledních padesát let, který dostal vyznamenání vyhrazené největším hrdinům Ameriky. Kniha je také pohledem do zákulisí práce speciálního taktického operátora amerického letectva. Je to nejzdatnější a nejvšestrannější speciální jednotka na světě, jejíž příslušníci musí nejen překonávat schopnosti týmů Navy SEAL a Delta Force, ale musí také jednat s energickou rozhodností a s dokonalou přesností - dokonce i tváří v tvář smrtelnému nebezpečí. Kniha vychází z očitých svědectví, utajovaných dokumentů, dramatických videozáznamů a obsáhlých rozhovorů s veliteli a přeživšími operace. Je to příběh mimořádné odvahy člověka v bezvýchodné situaci a projevu sounáležitosti, která ho utvářela.

An argument for a design philosophy of better, not more.Never have we wanted, owned, and wasted so much stuff. Our consumptive path through modern life leaves a wake of social and ecological destruction--sneakers worn only once, bicycles barely even ridden, and forgotten smartphones languishing in drawers. By what perverse alchemy do our newest, coolest things so readily transform into meaningless junk? In Meaningful Stuff, Jonathan Chapman investigates why we throw away things that still work, and shows how we can design products, services, and systems that last. Obsolescence is an economically driven design decision--a plan to hasten a product s functional or psychological undesirability. Many electronic devices, for example, are intentionally impossible to dismantle for repair or recycling, their brief use-career proceeding inexorably to a landfill. A sustainable design specialist who serves as a consultant to global businesses and governmental organizations, Chapman calls for the decoupling of economic activity from mindless material consumption and shows how to do it.Chapman shares his vision for an experience heavy, material light design sensibility. This vital and timely new design philosophy reveals how meaning emerges from designed encounters between people and things, explores ways to increase the quality and longevity of our relationships with objects and the systems behind them, and ultimately demonstrates why design can--and must--lead the transition to a sustainable future.

Väčšina ľudí venuje neporovnateľne viac času príprave na svoje budúce povolanie, než príprave na manželstvo,“ hovorí Dr. Gary Chapman. Drvivá väčšina slobodných dospelých túži po manželskom vzťahu na celý život a nechcú, aby oni sami a prípadne ich deti museli prežiť bolestnú skúsenosť rozvodu. Tragédiou je, že mnoho z nich nemá ani najmenšiu predstavu, ako budovať takéto manželstvo. Aj to je dôvodom vysokej rozvodovosti. Známy autor a manželský poradca Gary Chapman dúfa, že sa mu svojou najnovšou knihou podarí aspoň trochu tento trend zmierniť. Má 35-ročnú skúsenosť s manželským poradenstvom a je presvedčený, že dôvodom rozvodov je aj nedostatočná príprava na manželstvo a neschopnosť a neochota naučiť sa vo vzťahu spolupracovať.

V srdci muža sa ukrýva túžba zvládať všetko, čo sa mu zdá dôležité. Je skvelé byť užitočným v práci alebo na ihrisku, ale nič sa nevyrovná tomu, keď vám manželka povie: „Vďaka tebe sa cítim milovaná.“ Ak ste tieto slová od nej ešte nepočuli alebo máte pocit, že nie ste špičkovým hráčom v oblasti vzťahov, je táto kniha určená práve vám. Séria kníh Päť jazykov lásky je bestsellerom, pretože princípy, ktoré obsahuje, sú jednoduché, praktické a efektívne.

Audiokniha: Niekto túži po pozornosti, iný po pochvale; pre niekoho sú veľmi dôležité darčeky, pre ďalšieho vymenená žiarovka či ožehlená košeľa a zas iný potrebuje fyzický dotyk. Audiokniha vám objasní každý z týchto jazykov, pomôže vám objaviť jazyk lásky vás a vášho partnera a dozviete sa aj, ako prakticky týmto jazykom hovoriť. Cieľom nie je vyjasniť zmätok ohľadne slov láska či milovať, ale zamerať sa na prejavy lásky, ktorá je nevyhnutná pre naše emocionálne zdravie. Gary Chapman hovorí, že jednou z príčin neporozumenia v manželstve je to, že každý z nás hovorí iným jazykom lásky. Počas svojej viac ako 30-ročnej poradenskej praxe identifikoval päť jazykov lásky: Slová uistenia, Pozornosť, Prijímanie darov, Skutky služby, Fyzický dotyk. Keď identifikujeme a naučíme sa hovoriť jazykom lásky nášho partnera, objavili sme kľúč k dlhotrvajúcemu, milujúcemu manželskému vzťahu. Láska sa po svadbe nemusí vypariť, no aby sme ju udržiavali živú, potrebujeme zapracovať na tom, aby sme sa naučili hovoriť jazykom lásky nášho partnera.

AS FEATURED ON BBC2 S BETWEEN THE COVERS THE TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLERA GUARDIAN, TELEGRAPH, THE TIMES, IRISH TIMES, ROUGH TRADE, MOJO, CLASH, ROLLING STONE, UNCUT BOOK OF THE YEARFrom award-winning musician and composer Warren Ellis comes the unexpected and inspiring story of a piece of chewing gum. FEATURING AN INTRODUCTION BY NICK CAVEâ ˜Warren has turned this memento, snatched from his idolâ ™s piano in a moment of rapture, into a genuine religious artefact.â ™NICK CAVE Such a mad, happy book about art and music and obsession. Iâ ™m so glad I got to read it. It made the world feel lighter. NEIL GAIMAN In praise of meaning-rich relics and magical things. Totally heartwarming project. MAX PORTER A unique study of a fanâ ™s devotion, of transcendence and of the artistic vocation â ” itâ ™s got depth and great warmth. Itâ ™s a beautiful piece of work. KEVIN BARRYI hadnâ ™t opened the towel that contained her gum since 2013. The last person to touch it was Nina Simone, her saliva and fingerprints unsullied. The idea that it was still in her towel was something I had drawn strength from. I thought each time I opened it some of Nina Simoneâ ™s spirit would vanish. In many ways that thought was more important than the gum itself.On Thursday 1 July, 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave s Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage, took Dr Simone s piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, a conduit that would eventually take Ellis back to his childhood and his relationship with found objects, growing in significance with every passing year.Nina Simoneâ ™s Gum is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love. This is such a beautiful f*@king book. Thank you, Warren. I highly recommend this motherf*@ker. FLEA A beautifully written book about the power of music and objects. I powered through it in two days. COURTNEY BARNETT A moving, inspiration insight into a beautiful mind. JIM JARMUSCH The year s most eccentric and joyful musical memoir. DAILY TELEGRAPH (Books of the year) [Nina Simone s Gum] is a metaphor for [Ellis ] creativity â ” the blossoming of a small idea into something bigger and bolder â ” but also a journey inside the impulsive, improvisatory mind of Warren Ellis, his passions, obsessions and superstitions.
