Through his leading role in the three Superman films, Christopher Reeve became so closely identified with the superhero that he wasn t just seen as the actor who played Superman, he was Superman. Which is why the tragic riding accident which left him paralysed from the neck down shocked the world. Superman was not superhuman. It is also why he is now the world s most recognisable person in a wheelchair. In true superhero style, Christopher Reeve refuses to resign himself to the life of a quadriplegic, and is actively campaigning to raise the profile of spinal-cord injury victims and research. Although he was initially told that he would only ever be able to move his head, he can now shrug his shoulders and breathe alone for increasing periods of time, and is determined that he will walk again. It is this extraordinary courage and determination that has made Christopher Reeve the internationally admired figure that he is, and it is this bravery which makes this autobiography about his paralysis and his journey to recovery such a powerful and moving story.

Simon Reeve velice podrobně, přitom ale nesmírně čtivě líčí nejen průběh dne 5. září 1972, kdy palestinští teroristé na dvacátých olympijských hrách v Mnichově zajali část izraelské sportovní výpravy. Popisuje zoufalé snažení nepřipravených německých policistů, reakce vládních činitelů, všeobecný chaos, všudypřítomné zvědavce a média informující o neštěstí v přímém přenosu. Když vylíčí tragický konec nepovedené záchranné policejní operace, věnuje se tajným akcím izraelské vlády stíhající a vraždící palestinské pachatele. V závěru pojedná o snahách německé vlády celou záležitost vymazat z paměti, aby nevyšlo najevo její pochybení, a opačné úsilí pozůstalých vytrvale žádajících spravedlnost a připomínajících památku mrtvých. Při psaní autor vycházel hlavně z materiálů shromážděných pro natáčení dokumentárního filmu, oceněného Oscarem. Vyprávění dodává Reeve dramatičnost a emotivnost nejen přímými výpověďmi jednotlivých osob, ale i domýšlenými dialogy tak, že kniha působí téměř jako napínavý špionážní román. Dává hlas všem, ale vzhledem k mlčenlivosti oficiálních činitelů zaznívají přece jen nejvíce hlasy pozůstalých, a přes veškerou snahu o nezaujatost je jasné, na čí straně jsou autorovy sympatie. Kniha není jen strhujícím popisem jedné konkrétní teroristické akce, ale přerůstá v obecnou a velmi aktuální připomínku toho, jak nesnadné je vypořádat se s terorismem a jak mu média mimoděk nahrávají.

The marriage of Britain s Princess Elizabeth to Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten in November 1947 is remembered as the beginning of an extraordinary, lifelong union but success was not guaranteed. Elizabeth and Philip: A Story of Young Love, Marriage and Monarchy plunges us back into the 1940s when a teenage princess fell in love with a foreign prince. Cue fears of a flirtatious Greek fortune hunter stealing off with Britain s crown jewel and Philip s supporters scrambling to reframe him as a good fit for the Royal Family. Drawing on original newspaper archives and the opinions of Elizabeth and Philip s contemporaries, historian Dr Tessa Dunlop discovers a post-war world on the cusp of major change. Unprecedented polling on Philip s suitability was a harbinger of pressures to come for a couple whose marriage was branded the ultimate global fairytale. Theirs was a partnership like no other. Six years after Elizabeth promised to be an obedient wife Philip got down on bended knee at the coronation and committed himself as the Queen s liege man of life and limb. Published 75 years after their marriage, this deeply touching history explores the ups and downs, the public appeal and the private tensions that defined an extraordinary relationship. The high stakes involved might have devoured a less committed pair - but Elizabeth and Philip shared a common purpose, one higher even than marriage, with roots much deeper than young love.

Flights, a novel about travel in the twenty-first century and human anatomy, is Olga Tokarczukâ ™s most ambitious to date. It interweaves travel narratives and reflections on travel with an in-depth exploration of the human body, broaching life, death, motion, and migration. From the seventeenth century, we have the story of the Dutch anatomist Philip Verheyen, who dissected and drew pictures of his own amputated leg. From the eighteenth century, we have the story of a North African-born slave turned Austrian courtier stuffed and put on display after his death. In the nineteenth century, we follow Chopinâ ™s heart as it makes the covert journey from Paris to Warsaw. In the present we have the trials of a wife accompanying her much older husband as he teaches a course on a cruise ship in the Greek islands, and the harrowing story of a young husband whose wife and child mysteriously vanish on a holiday on a Croatian island. With her signature grace and insight, Olga Tokarczuk guides the reader beyond the surface layer of modernity and towards the core of the very nature of humankind.

So when an enigmatic Russian colonel asks Bernie Gunther to go to Vienna, where his ex-Kripo colleague Emil Becker faces a murder charge, Bernie doesn t hesitate for long. Despite Becker s unsavoury past, Gunther is convinced that shooting an American Nazi-hunter is one crime he didn t commit.But Vienna is not the peaceful haven Bernie expects it to be. Communism is the new enemy, and with the Nuremberg trials over, some strange alliances are being forged against the Red Menace - alignments that make many wartime atrocities look lily-white by comparison.Vividly evoking the atmosphere of postwar Vienna, A Germen Requiem brings all Philip Kerr s pace and mordant wit to the tangle of guilt, suspicion, and double-dealing that laid the foundations for the Cold War.

V rámci Stanford Historical Society Oral History vznikly v roce 2017 nahrávky rozhovorů s předním současným psychologem Philipem Zimbardem (* 1933). V nich vzpomíná na své drsné dětství za hospodářské krize v chudinském čtvrti New Yorku v rodině sicilských emigrantů, svou touhu studovat, která ho dostala z těchto poměrů až na vysokou školu, začátky psychologické praxe v laboratoři se zvířaty, přátelství se Stanley Milgramem. Velkou část věnuje vzpomínkám na atmosféru na univerzitě v 60. a 70. letech a na okolnosti, průběh a důsledky svého světoznámého Stanfordského experimentu. Dále se ale věnuje i následujícím projektům (zkoumání stydlivosti), svému angažmá ve zkoumání vězeňských systémů, aféře kolem věznice Abú Ghrajb, své přednáškové činnosti po celém světě. Kniha přináší nejen unikátní, živě líčené, a přitom obsahově nabité paměti výrazné osobnosti světové psychologie, ale podává i široký vhled do dějin celého oboru ve 20 století. Philip Zimbardo patří k nejznámějším současným psychologům na světě. Proslavil se mj. svou knihou Luciferův efekt. Portál chystá k vydání jeho knihu Nesmělost.Daniel Hartwig je historik, filozof a archivář Stanfordovy univerzity.
