Operation Jubilee - Patrick Bishop
On the warm night of 18 August 1942, a flotilla pushed out into the flat water of the Channel. They were to seize the German-held port of Dieppe, destroy key installations, seize intelligence material and then sail for home.This was the greatest amphibious operation since Gallipoli, with the biggest accumulation of fighter power ever assembled. But by the morning of the attack, one of its architects already feared that the operation would "go down as one of the great failures in history". Its key players claimed it was essential to D-Day, with the media telling listeners that it was a success -- but the tragedy was all too predictable.Using first-hand testimony from combatants and civilians, and colourful analysis of the roles of Mountbatten and Montgomery, bestselling author Patrick Bishop''s gripping account brings Operation Jubilee powerfully and vividly to life, in an epic demonstration of how ambition, folly and courage came together in one of the most tragic episodes of the war.

This is their story.The Battle of Britain is one of the most crucial battles ever fought, and the victory of Fighter Command over the Luftwaffe has always been celebrated as a classic feat of arms.

Bomber Boys - Patrick Bishop
Patrick Bishop looks at the lives and the extraordinary risks that the painfully young pilots of Bomber Command took during the air-offensive against Germany from 1940-1945. As featured on the BBC 1 documentary BOMBER BOYS, presented by Ewan McGregor.They came from every corner of Britain and its Empire. They were the best of their generation…heading for one of the worst tasks of WWII.Like RAF pilots, the thousands of brave young men who joined Bomber Command took to the air to help Britain triumph in World War Two. But in the glow of victory, the fighter pilots were lauded for their efforts while the Bomber Boys faded in national memory. Crucial in the heat of combat, they were politically awkward afterwards.Yet with an average life expectancy shorter than that of soldiers on the Western front in WWI, these men faced death, injury and capture time and again to send bombs through the shrieking flak onto enemy territory. ‘Bomber Boys’ is a tribute to their strength, courage and heroism – filling in the historical blanks and immortalising their memory.

Target Tirpitz - Patrick Bishop
A gripping account of the epic hunt for Hitler’s most terrifying battleship – the legendary Tirpitz – and the brave men who risked their lives to attack and destroy this most potent symbol of the Nazi’s fearsome war machine.Tirpitz was the pride of Hitler’s navy. To Churchill, she was ‘the Beast’, a menace to Britain’s supply lines and a threat to the convoys sustaining Stalin’s armies. Tirpitz was said to be unsinkable, impregnable –no other target attracted so much attention.In total 36 major Allied operations were launched against her, including desperately risky missions by human torpedoes and midget submarines and near-suicidal bombing raids. Yet Tirpitz stayed afloat. It was not until November 1944 that she was finally destroyed by RAF Lancaster Bombers flown by 617 Squadron – the Dambusters – in a gruelling mission that tested the very limits of human endurance.The man who led the raid – Willie Tait – was one of the most remarkable figures of the war, flying missions almost continuously right from the start. Until now his deeds have been virtually unknown. With exclusive co-operation from Tait’s family, Patrick Bishop reveals the extraordinary achievement of a man who shunned the spotlight but whose name will ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Junior Officers' Reading Club - Patrick Hennessey
Patrick Hennessey''s The Junior Officers'' Reading Club is a lucid, witty account of all the horror, boredom and exhilaration of war. Patrick Hennessey is pretty much like any other member of Generation X: he spent the first half of the noughties reading books at university, going out, listening to house music and watching war films. He also, as an officer in the Grenadier guards, fought in some of the most violent combat the British army has seen in decades. Telling the story of how a modern soldier is made, from the testosterone-heavy breeding ground of Sandhurst to the nightmare of Iraq and Afghanistan, The Junior Officers'' Reading Club is already being hailed as a modern classic. ''Soldiers who can write are as rare as writers who can strip down a machinegun in 40 seconds'' Christopher Hart, Sunday Times ''An extraordinary memoir ...

On Elizabeth Bishop - Colm Tóibín
A compelling portrait of a beloved poet from one of today''s most acclaimed novelistsIn this book, novelist Colm TóibÃn offers a deeply personal introduction to the work and life of one of his most important literary influences—the American poet Elizabeth Bishop. Ranging across her poetry, prose, letters, and biography, TóibÃn creates a vivid picture of Bishop while also revealing how her work has helped shape his sensibility as a novelist and how her experiences of loss and exile resonate with his own. What emerges is a compelling double portrait that will intrigue readers interested in both Bishop and TóibÃn.For TóibÃn, the secret of Bishop''s emotional power is in what she leaves unsaid. Exploring Bishop’s famous attention to detail, TóibÃn describes how Bishop is able to convey great emotion indirectly, through precise descriptions of particular settings, objects, and events. He examines how Bishop’s attachment to the Nova Scotia of her childhood, despite her later life in Key West and Brazil, is related to her early loss of her parents—and how this connection finds echoes in TóibÃn’s life as an Irish writer who has lived in Barcelona, New York, and elsewhere.Beautifully written and skillfully blending biography, literary appreciation, and descriptions of TóibÃn’s ...

Elizabeth Bishop in Context
Elizabeth Bishop is increasingly recognised as one of the twentieth century''s most original writers. Consisting of thirty-five ground-breaking essays by an international team of authors, including biographers, literary critics, poets and translators, this volume addresses the biographical and literary inception of Bishop''s originality, from her formative upbringing in New England and Nova Scotia to long residences in New York, France, Florida and Brazil. Her poetry, prose, letters, translations and visual art are analysed in turn, followed by detailed studies of literary movements such as surrealism and modernism that influenced her artistic development. Bishop''s encounters with nature, music, psychoanalysis and religion receive extended treatment, likewise her interest in dreams and humour. Essays also investigate the impact of twentieth-century history and politics on Bishop''s life writing, and what it means to read Bishop via eco-criticism, postcolonial theory and queer studies.

Stop Doing That Sh*t - Gary John Bishop
From the author of the New York Times and international bestseller Unfu*k Yourself Gary John Bishop presents a no-holds-barred guide to breaking through our cycles of self-sabotage to get what we want out of life.In Unfu*k Yourself, Gary John Bishop told us it was time to stop making excuses– to recognize and take responsibility for the negative self-talk holding us back.In Stop Doing That Sh*t, he builds on that message, teaching us how to stop self-sabotaging behavior. Bishop explains how our destructive cycles come down to the way that we’re wired. He then identifies different types of people and the ways we fu*k ourselves over: We can’t save money. We land in the same type of toxic relationship. We’re stuck in a rut at work. Analysing why we act the way we do, including what our common grenades are that blow up our lives, Bishop then shows how we can interrupt the cycle and stop self-sabotaging our lives.Written in the same in your face style as Unfu*k Yourself, Stop Doing that Sh*t will help us get in touch with our psychological machinery so we learn to interrupt negative thoughts and behaviour before they start, allowing us to give our attention ...

Poems - Elizabeth Bishop
This is the definitive centenary edition of the work of one of America''s greatest poets, recognised today as a master of her art and acclaimed by poets and readers alike. Her poems display honesty and humour, grief and acceptance, observing nature and human nature with painstaking accuracy. They often start outwardly, with geography and landscape - from New England and Nova Scotia, where Bishop grew up, to Florida and Brazil, where she later lived - and move inexorably toward the interior, exploring questions of knowledge and perception, love and solitude, and the ability or inability of form to control chaos.This new edition, edited by Saskia Hamilton, includes Bishop''s four published volumes (North & South, A Cold Spring, Questions of Travel and Geography III), as well as uncollected poems, translations and an illuminating selection of unpublished manuscript poems, reproduced in facsimile, revealing exactly how finished, or unfinished, Bishop left them. It offers readers the opportunity to enjoy the complete poems of one of the most distinguished American poets of the twentieth century.

The Patrick Melrose Novels - Edward St. Aubyn
The Patrick Melrose Novels hilariously dissect the English upper class, conjuring a world of decadence, amorality, greed, snobbery, and cruelty, but never without the possibility of grace. Taken together, they are one of the most thrilling reading experiences in contemporary fiction. Edward St. Aubyn chronicled the life of Patrick Melrose across five short novels, painting an acrid portrait of a beleaguered and self-loathing world of privilege. Never Mind unfolds over a day and an evening at the family’s chateau in the south of France, where the sadistic and terrifying figure of David Melrose dominates the lives of his rich and unhappy American wife, Eleanor, and their five-year-old son, Patrick. Bad News opens as Patrick, now twenty-two years old, sets off to collect his father’s ashes from New York, where he will spend a drug-crazed twenty-four hours.Back in England, Some Hope offers Patrick the possibility of recovery (and the most debauched and riotous dinner party in contemporary fiction).

This book chronicles the story of the single most daring Special Forces operation since World War Two - Operation Barras; the attempted rescue by the SAS of the British Forces who were being held captive by guerrilla gang the West Side Boys in the Sierra Leone jungle. The West Side Boys were a strange-looking bunch, wearing pink shades, shower caps, fluorescent wigs and voodoo charms they believed made them invulnerable to bullets - an impression re-enforced by ganja, heroine, crack cocaine and gallons of sweet palm wine. In 1999 a twelve man patrol of Royal Irish Rangers, who were training government troops in Sierra Leone, were captured and held hostage by the West Side Boys. They were held prisoner in a fortified jungle hideaway, with severed heads decorating the palisades, defended by some 400 heavily armed soldiers. Operation Barras, the rescue mission, was a combined force of 100 Paras, twelve members of the Special Boat Squadron, helicopters from the Navy and RAF and, spearheading the operation, 40-strong D squadron of the SAS. Against amazing odds the hostages were rescued - over 150 of the enemy were killed. Operation Certain Death is a thrilling true story of all out war. No ... Unknown localization key: "more"

V této knize, nazvané Chytře na prů*ery, všechny tyto myšlenky rozvíjí, redefinuje, co znamená „moudrost“ a ukazuje nám, jak se vypořádat s problémy a ještě vylepšit život sobě i ostatním. Když nás zasáhnou všelijaké prů*ery všedního života, mnoho z nás nemá tušení co si počít – ať už se jedná o ztrátu práce, zlomené srdce nebo jen a pouze pocit určitého prázdna. Moudrost potřebujeme k nalezení toho správného směru. Ačkoliv je internet plný různých na první pohled velice nápomocných rad, v žádných životních změnách nám ve skutečnosti nepomůžou. Kniha Chytře na prů*ery se probírá všemi těmito s*ačkami a přináší nám vhled a inspiraci ve čtyřech úrovních, které jsou v tomto směru nejdůležitější: láska, ztráta, strach a úspěch. Napsáno jeho velmi populárním stylem naprosto bez okolků, přináší toto dílo velmi svěží perspektivu, aby nám pomohla se změnou našeho přístupu k různorodým životním problémům. Bishop však vzápětí zmiňuje, že tím to nekončí. Teď když jste se ods*ali a jdete chytře na prů*ery, je třeba tyto lekce použít k pozitivním dopadům na svět kolem vás.

Přestaňte řešit h*vna - Gary John Bishop
Autor světového bestselleru Odse*te se, Gary John Bishop, přichází s bezprecedentním návodem, jak se přestat sabotovat a začít žít život, po kterém toužíte. V předchozí knize nás nabádal především k tomu, že je třeba se přestat vymlouvat a převzít zodpovědnost za negativní a svazující samomluvu. V knize Přestaňte řešit h*vna tento přístup dále rozvíjí a učí nás, jak ukončit sebezničující chování. Vysvětluje, že příčinou destruktivních cyklů je naše vrozené nastavení. Představuje různé typy lidí a způsoby, jakými sami sebe podrývají. Například: "Nedokážu ušetřit dost peněz." "Moje vztahy končí vždycky špatně." "Moje práce mě nebaví." Dále analyzuje, proč jednáme zrovna takto, včetně běžných "granátů", které nám vybuchují v životě. Gary J. Bishop ukazuje, jak lze vystoupit ze začarovaného kruhu a přestat sabotovat vlastní život. Kniha Přestaňte řešit h*vna je napsána stejně přímým stylem bez servítek jako Odse*te se, pomůže vám prohlédnout psychologickou mašinérii a zastavit negativní myšlenky a chování, ještě než se rozběhnou. Budete tak moci věnovat pozornost jiným věcem a začne se vám dařit v oblastech, kde jste si mysleli, že nikdy neuspějete. Skutečně můžeme vzít život zpět do vlastních rukou. Možná jste se sebou v minulosti vyjebávali, ale kniha Přestaňte řešit h*vna vám ukáže, jak překonat pustošivé vzorce a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Lost Moray and Nairn - Bruce Bishop
In Lost Moray and Nairn, Bruce Bishop traces what has been ''lost'' from the old counties of Moray and Nairn, both architecturally and socially. Packed with illustrations of places, buildings and of aspects of life which are now vanished, and containing a history of various elements of life in the area, Bishop illustrates changes in the way of life of the people of the Burghs of Nairn, Forres and Elgin, and in the smaller towns and villages. The effect of these lost elements on the coastal towns is also discussed, with particular focus placed on the demise of the ports of Findhorn, Nairn and Garmouth, and the more recent decline in the fishing industry.His journey trough the region takes him from prehistory to the present day, and examines everything from geology, architecture, agriculture, industry, to communications. Lost Moray and Nairn is an important, illuminating and compelling account and a worthy addition to the Birlinn series.

Artificial Hells - Claire Bishop
This searing critique of participatory art—from its development to its political ambitions—is “an essential title for contemporary art history scholars and students as well as anyone who has . . . thought, ‘Now that’s art!’ or ‘That’s art?’” (Library Journal)  Since the 1990s, critics and curators have broadly accepted the notion that participatory art is the ultimate political art: that by encouraging an audience to take part an artist can promote new emancipatory social relations. Around the world, the champions of this form of expression are numerous, ranging from art historians such as Grant Kester, curators such as Nicolas Bourriaud and Nato Thompson, to performance theorists such as Shannon Jackson. Artificial Hells is the first historical and theoretical overview of socially engaged participatory art, known in the US as “social practice.” Claire Bishop follows the trajectory of twentieth-century art and examines key moments in the development of a participatory aesthetic. This itinerary takes in Futurism and Dada; the Situationist International; Happenings in Eastern Europe, Argentina and Paris; the 1970s Community Arts Movement; and the Artists Placement Group. It concludes with a discussion of long-term educational projects by contemporary artists such as Thomas Hirschhorn, Tania Bruguera, Pawel Althamer and Paul ... Unknown localization key: "more"
