In 1917 Harry Ferguson developed a method of attaching a wheel-less plough to a tractor to reduce the dangers of the machine overturning. By 1925 the plough was in production in the USA and Ferguson set about developing equipment that would effectively integrate the implement and the tractor.Ferguson teamed up with David Brown to produce the Ferguson-Brown Type A but sales did not meet Harry''s expectations. Following a demonstration of the Ferguson-Brown tractor to Henry Ford, agreement was reached with the Ford Motor Company in the USA to build an improved version of the tractor there. It was launched in 1939 as the Ford-Ferguson 9N. When Ford terminated this arrangement Ferguson entered an agreement with the Standard Motor Company to bring production of what was now described as the Ferguson TE-20, to Britain. The first were built in 1946 and over the next ten years more than 793,000 examples were produced in Britain, France and the USA. With its revolutionary three-point hydraulic linkage, Ferguson had always seen his tractor as part of a complete farming system and by the time the TE-20 was superseded by the FE-35 in 1956, there were more than 100 Ferguson implements designed specifically to couple to the tractor.This is an enlarged and expanded edition, with many new pictures, of the comprehensive history of the TE-20 and the Ferguson System which helped to mechanise and revolutionise farming across the world. Today, with classic tractors a thriving hobby, few machines are more sought after than the TE-20. The book is also a reliable reference guide to finding, restoring and operating the ''little grey Fergie'' some 75 years since the first example was produced.

The brutally honest, riotously entertaining story of the much-loved Everton legend and iconic Premier League bad boy. 'A hell of a read. I couldn't recommend it more. Powerful' Gary Lineker‘Pure charisma’ The Times‘The honesty is unrestrained … there is humour … there is much to amuse … He has been through the storm and lived to tell the tales’ Daily Mail 'Funny, sad, regretful, optimistic.

As you can imagine, I'd much rather him be a teammate than be an opponent ' Alan Shearer____________________________________________________________________ Praised by Wayne Rooney and Sir Alex Ferguson as one of the greatest and most passionate players to ever play the game, Duncan Ferguson, or Big Dunc as he is known, is larger than life in every sense. Measuring a towering 6 feet 4 inches in height, from the moment the striker emerged in British football in the 1990s, he was front and back page news. On the pitch, fans loved Duncan for his roguish charm, his thrilling goals and his total commitment in every game. Fighting tooth and nail, he was a born leader and took no prisoners. Like his rival Roy Keane, he played close to the limit, and often crossed it. Such as the time he was sentenced to 3 months in Glasgow’s toughest prison for headbutting an opponent – the first and only time a footballer has ever gone to jail for a crime committed on a football pitch. In BIG DUNC: The Upfront Autobiography, Duncan reveals, for the first time, the full story: the truth about his experiences in prison, his partying with African princes and Liverpool gangsters, his fighting with burglars, his making and losing a fortune, and how he turned his life around through his beloved Everton F.C.. In the process, the book sheds light on one of football’s most charismatic but notorious and enigmatic hardmen. He is a pillar of the community in Merseyside, giving back to stricken children who share a similar tough upbringing to his own. Duncan's book takes readers on a rollercoaster ride of humour, drama and redemption. Buckle up. ____________________________________________________________________________‘Duncan Ferguson is an iconic figure for Evertonians as a great number 9...Big Dunc loves the scousers & the scousers love him!’ Jamie Carragher‘Duncan is possibly the most misunderstood man in football.

Niall Ferguson''s acclaimed bestseller on the highs and lows of Britain''s empireOnce vast swathes of the globe were coloured imperial red and Britannia ruled not just the waves, but the prairies of America, the plains of Asia, the jungles of Africa and the deserts of Arabia. Just how did a small, rainy island in the North Atlantic achieve all this? And why did the empire on which the sun literally never set finally decline and fall? Niall Ferguson''s acclaimed Empire brilliantly unfolds the imperial story in all its splendours and its miseries, showing how a gang of buccaneers and gold-diggers planted the seed of the biggest empire in all history - and set the world on the road to modernity.''The most brilliant British historian of his generation ... Ferguson examines the roles of "pirates, planters, missionaries, mandarins, bankers and bankrupts" in the creation of history''s largest empire ... he writes with splendid panache ... and a seemingly effortless, debonair wit'' Andrew Roberts ''Dazzling ... wonderfully readable'' New York Review of Books''A remarkably readable précis of the whole British imperial story - triumphs, deceits, decencies, kindnesses, cruelties and all'' Jan Morris ''Empire is a pleasure to read and brims with insights and intelligence'' Sunday Times

The decline of the West is something that has long been prophesied. Symptoms of decline are all around us today: slowing growth, crushing debts, ageing populations. But what exactly is amiss with Western civilization? The answer, Niall Ferguson argues, is that the institutions that were once the four pillars of Western society - representative government, the free market, the rule of law and civil society - are degenerating. The Great Degeneration is a powerful indictment of an era of negligence and complacency. To stop us frittering away the institutional inheritance of centuries, Ferguson warns, will take heroic leadership and radical reform. ''A refreshing perspective on the economic decline of advanced countries and the origins of the crisis'' Samuel Brittan, Financial Times ''He writes with splendid panache and a seemingly effortless, debonair wit'' The Times ''One of the most incisive writers of history, politics and economics today'' Sunday Telegraph ''Niall Ferguson has transformed the intellectual landscape'' Economist

The First World War killed around eight million men and bled Europe dry. In this provocative book Niall Ferguson asks: was the sacrifice worth it? Was it all really an inevitable cataclysm and were the Germans a genuine threat? Was the war, as is often asserted, greeted with popular enthusiasm? Why did men keep on fighting when conditions were so wretched? Was there in fact a death wish abroad, driving soldiers to their own destruction? The war, he argues, was a disaster - but not for the reasons we think. Far worse than a tragedy, it was the greatest error of modern history.''The most challenging and provocative analysis of the First World War to date'' Ian Kershaw ''Must take a permanent place at the top of the War''s historiography. It is one of the very few books whose own scale matches that of the events it describes'' Alan Clark, Daily Telegraph''Possibly the most important book to appear in years both on the origins of the First World War ...

Audiokniha na CD - autor Alex Ferguson, čte Ladislav Frej Ještě v dobách své hráčské kariéry přestoupil Ferguson (*1941) do Glasgow Rangers za tehdy nevídaných 65 000 liber. V roce 1974 již začal pracovat v managementu. Od roku 1986, kdy se stal trenérem Manchesteru United, získal s tímto týmem 38 trofejí (z toho 13 titulů za vítězství v lize). Díky tomu zde vydržel neuvěřitelných 26 let. V roce 1999 byl povýšen do šlechtického stavu. V roce 2013 se rozloučil s trenérskou kariérou opět titulem, ovšem pro "Man UTD" bude pracovat i nadále. Toto je jeho oficiální autobiografie, kde shrnuje svou úspěšnou kariéru a vzpomíná kromě jiného na hráče, které si do mužstva vybral a jimž pomohl k přestupům za nevídané částky (Ronaldo, Beckham, Rooney a mnoho dalších). Samozřejmě se nevyhýbá ani hodnocení svých rivalů mezi trenéry. Jeho jasný, srozumitelný a vtipný text vás určitě dostane. Čte Ladislav Frej

Britský historik Niall Ferguson (*1964) je profesorem na Harvardově univerzitě. Většina jeho prací, jež v západní Evropě vzbudily nebývalý zájem, je věnována hospodářským a sociálním dějinám 19. a 20. století. Největší pozornost prozatím vzbudila jeho kniha o příčinách první světové války (Nešťastná válka). V ní přišel s kacířskou tezí, že mocensko-politické vztahy v roce 1914 neeskalovaly kvůli německé agresivní, velmocenské politice, nýbrž kvůli nekompromisním postojům Velké Británie. Jeho další kniha nazvaná Vzestup peněz je věnována problematice rozvoje moderního finančního hospodářství, měnového systému a ekonomickým recesím a depresím v 19. a 20. století. Ferguson si v ní klade dvě základní otázky: Jakým způsobem moc peněz změnila mentální chování moderních lidí 19. a 20. století a jak ekonomika ve svém důsledku zvítězila nad politikou klasického 19. věku? Jeho odpovědi, někdy provokativní, ve svém důsledku osvětlují nejen vzestup moci peněz v moderních dějinách, ale také přičiny finanční krize, do níž se svět dostal v roce 2009.

Britský historik Niall Ferguson, autor řady vysoce oceňovaných publikací (naposledy např. Civilizace), ve své nové práci analyzuje podoby mocenského vlivu. Jednu - vertilkální, hierarchickou - charakterizuje metafora věže; druhou - horizontální, založenou na síti vztahů - zase obraz náměstí. Autor zkoumá jejich historický vývoj i koexistenci. V historických knihách je patrnější ona vertikální struktura, na jejímž vrcholu stáli králové a papežové, ale to neznamená, že by horizontální sítě společenských vztahů byly záležitostí moderní doby, ve které jako by komunikace po Facebooku hrála větší roli než politické uspořádání. Ferguson ukazuje podobu společenských sítí v minulých dobách a v jejich rozvoji a úpadku nachází varovné signály pro sítě novodobé, protože sítě byly vždy náchylné k uzavírání, přenášení negativních signálů či výpadkům.

In the early morning of 9 April 1940, a fleet of German battleships entered the Oslofjord.Norwegian artillery delayed them long enough for King Haakon VII and his cabinet to escape to England, but there was no stopping the Nazi Blitzkrieg. Norway stood on the cusp of a traumatic five-year occupation whose aftershocks would continue to trouble its national consciousness long after the defeated Germans departed in May 1945.Robert Ferguson tells the extraordinary – and relatively little-known – story of the occupation and its judicial aftermath. He focuses in particular on German attempts to use a Norwegian Nazi administration under Vidkun Quisling to impose a National Socialist revolution on the country, and on the many brave and ingenious ways in which the Norwegians resisted.Ferguson describes the occupation in all its aspects – from Nazi terror to non-violent resistance, from censorship to sabotage – via a series of heterogeneous but interlinked narratives. Key players in the occupation and its wider story – including the pitiless Reichskommissar Josef Terboven, the Norwegian crime writer-turned-SS-strongman Jonas Lie, the principled Lutheran bishop Eivind Berggrav and the enigmatic double agent Gunnar Waaler – are drawn in memorably vivid colours.A riveting account of the Second World War’s forgotten occupation, Norway’s War evokes in moving fashion the moral and physical courage of a people who, faced with the brutal tyranny of a totalitarian invader, refused to be cowed.

Maria Ferguson’s second poetry collection is a raw and powerful documentation of one woman’s experience of becoming a mother. Against a backdrop of the sounds and sensations of daily life, Ferguson observes her body changing and charts a course through loss and wilting house plants, towards recovery, empowerment and renewal.Tender, direct and winningly witty, Swell navigates the complexities of family and domesticity, exploring the contending weight and levity felt in this thrillingly unfamiliar new chapter. Ferguson is a poet as alert to the absurd as to the shattering, and these are large-hearted poems, full of life and thought. Together, they invite the reader to join them in a search for self-acceptance, for freedom from shame, and for a path to stability in increasingly uncertain times.

AKO SA STAŤ DOBRÝM VODCOM? INŠPIRATÍVNY NÁVOD OD NAJÚSPEŠNEJŠIEHO MANAŽÉRA VŠETKÝCH ČIAS Ako získať úspech, vyšvihnúť sa na svetovú špičku a dlhodobo sa tam udržať? Sir Alex Ferguson je jedným z mála lídrov, ktorí to vedia. Ako manažér získal za 38 rokov neuveriteľných 49 trofejí a Manchestru United pomohol stať sa jednou z najvýznamnejších komerčných značiek na svete. V tejto novej, inšpiratívnej knihe sir Alex odhaľuje tajomstvá svojej kariéry, počas ktorej prekonal nejeden rekord. Kniha sa člení na niekoľko častí. Každá má inú ústrednú tému predstavujúcu jednu zo schopností, ktoré si sir Alex nesmierne cení. Niektoré z nich si okamžite dáme do súvisu s jeho štýlom vedenia: disciplína, kontrola, tímová práca a motivácia. Iné sú síce menej zjavné, no na ceste za úspechom nie sú o nič menej dôležité: delegovanie povinností, analýza údajov a otázka, ako naložiť s neúspechom. Z informáciami nabitého diela popretkávaného humorom, ktorého spoluautorom je aj sir Michael Moritz, investor a dlhoročný priateľ sira Alexa, sála múdrosť a úprimnosť. Samozrejme, jednotlivé príbehy sa krútia okolo futbalu a okolo fenomenálneho úspechu, ktorý sa vďaka tvrdej práci dostavil, no ponaučenie si z nich môže zobrať každý. Je úplne jedno, či stojíte na čele spoločnosti, pri tabuli pred triedou plnou študentov, alebo pracujete v malom tíme. Vďaka tejto knihe sa stanete lepším lídrom.

A hockey player and a baker shoot their shot in this steamy new romance by Lana Ferguson, USA Today bestselling author of The Nanny. This time they're both playing for keeps . . . When a very public breakup becomes a PR nightmare for Ian Chase's team, he hopes to focus on his game, but that suddenly seem less likely than a hat trick. With his career and the team's image in jeopardy, Ian is surprised to find a solution through none other than Delilah Baker, his best friend and teammate's little sister . . . who isn't so little anymore.Delilah Baker is known as 'the darling of baking' on her local cable show, and being in the public eye is her bread and butter. But with her numbers dwindling and her producers turning up the heat, Delilah offers up the half-baked idea to collaborate with her brother's team to entice the hockey fans of Boston to tune in to her show. Delilah thinks it will be a piece of cake - until the team sends Ian Chase, her brother's best friend and the object of a decade-long crush that she's never quite gotten over.Delilah's and Ian's teams think it's a true win-win situation - gaining higher numbers for Delilah's show and casting Ian in a more positive light. And viewers are eating them up like a cupcake, sparking the idea to play up their relationship for the goal of good press. With more than just their careers on thin ice, the line between what's real and what's for show begins to blur, but one thing's for certain: This PR stunt will either be a total game changer - or leave them both totally pucked.

The New York Times bestseller, now in paperback and updated with a new introductionConfidence. We want it. We need it. But it can be maddeningly enigmatic and out of reach. The authors of the New York Times bestseller Womenomics deconstruct this essential, elusive, and misunderstood quality and offer a blueprint for bringing more of it into our lives.Is confidence hardwired into the DNA of a lucky few, or can anyone learn it? Is it best expressed by bravado, or is there another way to show confidence? Which is more important: confidence or competence? Why do so many women, even the most successful, struggle with feelings of self-doubt? Is there a secret to channeling our inner confidence?In The Confidence Code, journalists Katty Kay and Claire Shipman travel to the frontiers of neuroscience on a hunt for the confidence gene and reveal surprising new research on its roots in our brains. They visit the world’s leading psychologists who explain how we can all choose to become more confident simply by taking action and courting risk, and how those actions change our physical wiring. They interview women leaders from the worlds of politics, sports, the military, and the arts to learn how they have tapped into this elemental resource. They examine how a lack of confidence impacts our leadership, success, and fulfillment.Ultimately, they argue, while confidence is partly influenced by genetics, it is not a fixed psychological state. That’s the good news. You won’t discover it by thinking positive thoughts or by telling yourself (or your children) that you are perfect as you are. You also won’t find it by simply squaring your shoulders and faking it. But it does require a choice: less people pleasing and perfectionism and more action, risk taking, and fast failure.Inspiring, insightful, and persuasive, The Confidence Code shows that by acting on our best instincts and by daring to be authentic, women can feel the transformative power of a life on confidence.

Od dob svého vzniku v Paříži v polovině 19. století představuje myšlenka bohémství vlivnou a přetrvávající součást umělecké identity. Ačkoliv měli lidé zabývající se uměním vždy pověst těch, kdo žijí mimo společenské normy, právě tehdy a na tomto místě byl tento životní styl poprvé přijat systematicky a zromantizován. Koncept bohémy se rychle ujal i mezinárodně a po druhé světové válce se objevil na mnoha různých místech po celém světě. Bohemia: Příběh fenoménu, 1950-2000 mapuje rozdíly i prvky kontinuity v rozmanitých projevech těchto scén. Končí na sklonku 20. století, kdy komoditní kultura začala až příliš nahlodávat způsob života založený na jejím odmítání. Myšlenka bohémství nicméně nadále nabízí alternativu ke konformitě, a proto dodnes vzbuzuje fascinaci. Dokonce i z hlubin minulosti nadále láká životními styly, které stále burcují a inspirují. Tato publikace doprovází obsáhlou výstavu pořádanou Kunsthalle Praha a pojednává o důležitých dílech pestré řady umělců a umělkyň jako Stan Douglas, Ed van der Elsken, Nan Goldin, Tomislav Gotovac, Peter Hujar, Libuše Jarcovjáková, Alice Neel, Wolfgang Tillmans, Zhang Huan a další. Autor knihy, Russell Ferguson, působí jako profesor a výzkumný pracovník na University of California v Los Angeles a široce publikuje o poválečném a současném umění. Mezi jeho knihy patří například tituly In Memory of My Feelings: Frank O'Hara and American Art (1999) a ve spolupráci s Kerrym Brougherem Damage Control: Art and Destruction since 1950 (2013).

Ferguson líčí historii Britského impéria od 16. do 21. století. Impérium, které v době svého vrcholu ovládalo čtvrtinu světové populace, čtvrtinu zemského povrchu a téměř všechny oceány, se příznivě podepsalo na vývoji Spojených států a Kanady, Indie, Afriky, Austrálie, Nového Zélandu, východní Asie a Číny. Podle Fergusona impérium neožebračovalo národy, které se ocitly pod jeho nadvládou, ale naopak zajišťovalo jejich ekonomický blahobyt tím, že díky této nadvládě byly tyto země politicky stabilní. Idea svobody odlišovala impérium v minulosti od jeho evropských soupeřů, což se mj. projevilo během boje proti nevolnictví. Autor rovněž vyzdvihuje funkční efektivitu impéria. Například v Indii 900 civilních úředníků a 70 tisíc vojáků vládlo 250 milionům Indů. Kniha pro českého čtenáře představuje nejen možnost seznámit se s dějinami, fungováním a dědictvím Britského impéria, ale zároveň jedinečnou příležitost korigovat obsah takových zažitých pojmů, jako je kolonialismus nebo vykořisťování. Díky této knize můžeme také lépe pochopit odstup, který si Velká Británie vždy udržovala od kontinentu i Evropské unie a který nakonec vyvrcholil brexitem. Publikace je vybavena rozsáhlým obrazovým materiálem, který působivě dokresluje charakter a atmosféru impéria v té které době a zemi.
