Je v 21. století ještě vůbec možné vybudovat a uchovat základy pevného a trvalého vztahu, v prostředí plném povrchní, roztříštěné komunikace, strachu, že o něco přijdeme, neschopnosti odkládat uspokojení či „sešívaných“ rodin, když navíc stále narůstá počet lidí žijících o samotě? I v této situaci toužíme po vzájemnosti a láskyplné sounáležitosti.Kniha pojednává o situacích, které ohrožují harmonický vztah (přehnaná závislost jednoho partnera, nezralost), o úskalích řešitelných v párové terapii (triangulace, přerámování, neutrální postoj terapeuta), o důležitosti prvního setkání, o nedostatečnosti jazykových prostředků a důležitosti odpuštění, smíření a omluvy, o kreativních vztahových řešeních, o terapeutických výzvách při řešení nevěry, o používání metafor a o rozhodování, zda má smysl ve vztahu setrvávat.Alan Linnér a Anders Nyman jsou švédští psychologové s dlouholetou zkušeností, kteří stáli u zrodu párové a rodinné terapie ve Švédsku.

The Moonstone is one of the first true works of detective fiction, in which Wilkie Collins established the groundwork for the genre itself. This Penguin Classics edition is edited with an introduction by Sandra Kemp.The Moonstone, a priceless yellow diamond, is looted from an Indian temple and maliciously bequeathed to Rachel Verinder. On her eighteenth birthday, her friend and suitor Franklin Blake brings the gift to her. That very night, it is stolen again. No one is above suspicion, as the idiosyncratic Sergeant Cuff and the Franklin piece together a puzzling series of events as mystifying as an opium dream and as deceptive as the nearby Shivering Sand. The intricate plot and modern technique of multiple narrators made Wilkie Collins''s 1868 work a huge success in the Victorian sensation genre. With a reconstruction of the crime, red herrings and a ''locked-room'' puzzle, The Moonstone was also a major precursor of the modern mystery novel.In her introduction Sandra Kemp explores The Moonstone''s the detective elements of Collins''s writing, and reveals how Collins''s sensibilities were untypical of his era.Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was born in London in 1824, the eldest son of the landscape painter William Collins. In 1846 he was entered to read for the bar at Lincoln''s Inn, where he gained the knowledge that was to give him much of the material for his writing. From the early 1850s he was a friend of Charles Dickens, who produced and acted in two melodramas written by Collins, The Lighthouse and The Frozen Deep. Of his novels, Collins is best remembered for The Woman in White (1859), No Name (1862), Armadale (1866) and The Moonstone (1868).If you enjoyed The Moonstone you might like Collins''s The Woman in White, also available in Penguin Classics.''Probably the very finest detective story ever written''Dorothy L. Sayers''The first, the longest and the best of modern modern English detective novels''T.S. Eliot

THE NEW QUESTIONTen years after the worldwide bestseller Good to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this time to ask: Why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collins and his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times.THE NEW STUDY Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins''s prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today. With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness - beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years - in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these "10X companies" to a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to achieve greatness in similarly extreme environments.THE NEW FINDINGSThe study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as: * The best leaders were not more risk taking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid.* Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a chaotic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.* Following the belief that leading in a "fast world" always requires "fast decisions" and "fast action" is a good way to get killed.* The great companies changed less in reaction to a radically changing world than the comparison companies.The authors challenge conventional wisdom with thought-provoking, sticky, and supremely practical concepts. They include 10Xers; the 20 Mile March; Fire Bullets then Cannonballs; Leading above the Death Line; Zoom Out, Then Zoom In; and the SMaC Recipe. Finally, in the last chapter, Collins and Hansen present their most provocative and original analysis: defining, quantifying, and studying the role of luck. The great companies and the leaders who built them were not luckier than the comparisons, but they did get a higher Return on Luck. This book is classic Collins: contrarian, data driven, and uplifting. He and Hansen show convincingly that, even in a chaotic and uncertain world, greatness happens by choice, not by chance.

______________________________THE BOOK THAT REED HASTINGS AT NETFLIX TOLD EVERY ASPIRING CEO TO READNearly thirty years ago, Stanford University faculty members Jim Collins and Bill Lazier showed you how to turn an entrepreneurial business into an enduring great company.Beyond Entrepreneurship became a leadership staple, particularly among small and early-stage companies. And while Collins would go on to write a series of famous bestsellers that have sold more than ten million copies worldwide, this lesser-known early work remains the favourite of many of his loyal readers.Now, with Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0, Collins re-shares the timeless insights in Beyond Entrepreneurship alongside new perspectives gleaned after decades of additional research into what makes great companies tick.

You''ll be challenged to grow your own leadership as your company grows, from 1x to 2x to 5x to 10x.

You''ll learn why luck favours the persistent, and what it means to look for "who luck." You''ll learn about the origins of the "BHAG" (Big Hairy Audacious Goal), and why even a small business needs a galvanising BHAG to have a complete and inspiring vision.You''ll also unlock what Collins calls "The Map." The Map is a road map that pulls together the key concepts developed from thirty years of research and writing into one integrated framework for building a company that delivers superior results, makes a distinctive impact, and achieves lasting endurance.Finally, you''ll learn the lessons that Jim Collins himself learned from the most influential mentor in his life, Bill Lazier.Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0 is the ambitious upgrade to a classic.

A witty, intricately-plotted exploration of a sudden fall from grace, the Penguin Classics edition of Wilkie Collins''s No Name is edited with an introduction and notes by Mark Ford.Magdalen and her sister Norah, beloved daughters of Mr and Mrs Vanstone, find themselves the victims of a catastrophic oversight. Their father has neglected to change his will, and when the girls are suddenly orphaned, their inheritance goes to their uncle. Now penniless, the conventional Norah takes up a position as a governess, but the defiant and tempestuous Magdalen cannot accept the loss of what is rightfully hers and decides to do whatever she can to win it back. With the help of cunning Captain Wragge, she concocts a scheme that involves disguise, deceit and astonishing self-transformation. In this compelling, labyrinthine story Wilkie Collins brilliantly demonstrates the gap between justice and the law, and in the subversive Magdalen he portrays one of the most exhilarating heroines of Victorian fiction.In his introduction Mark Ford examines themes of identity and illegitimacy within Victorian society and compares No Name to Collins''s more ''sensational'' fiction. This edition also includes notes and a bibliography.Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was born in London in 1824, the eldest son of the landscape painter William Collins. In 1846 he was entered to read for the bar at Lincoln''s Inn, where he gained the knowledge that was to give him much of the material for his writing.

Michael Collins and the Women Who Spied for Ireland is the first book to concentrate on the crucial role played by women in Collins''s personal and working life. From his boyhood in an overwhelmingly female household in West Cork, women brought out the best in him and he brought out the best in them. Susan Killeen, his first girlfriend, remained a steadfast ally throughout his life. From 1917, his girlfriend, Madeline (Dilly) Dicker, helped to ease the burden of his huge workload as well as acting as a secret agent. Society ladies Moya Llewelyn Davies and Lady Hazel Lavery were conduits between Collins and the British Establishment and active participants in his work of espionage. In the final years of his life the true romantic passion between him and Kitty Kiernan is testified to by their frequent correspondence.These women, and many others who participated in the national struggle, women such as Kathleen Clarke, Leslie Price, Peg Barrett, Nancy O''Brien, Madge Hales and Collins'' sister Mary Collins Powell, are woven into this fascinating narrative of Collins'' life.

Jeho sny vzbuzovaly naději. Jeho slova rozněcovala vášeň. Jeho odvaha určila osud národa. Píše se rok 1920 a Irsko prožívá dramatické okamžiky přerodu ostrova na svobodnou a nezávislou zemi. Irové jsou hrdým národem, který si nade vše váží klasických mravních hodnot a víry v Boha. Stejně tak ale dokáží téměř vše obětovat pocitu svobody a národní svrchovanosti. Průsečíkem národního charakteru se stává Michael Collins, jemuž se podařilo sjednotit široké masy v celonárodní spontánní hnutí. Zároveň je však i zakladatelem Irské republikánské armády (IRA), který zároveň stál u zrodu jejích teroristických praktik... Režisér Neil Jordan si pro titulní roli vybral Liama Neesona, který postavě Michaela Collinse dokázal vtisknout rozměr nespoutané touhy po svobodě, jakož i věčné dramatické napětí, oscilující mezi individuálními a celospolečenskými zájmy. Jeho osud je ve svém tragickém vyznění až příliš podobný všem ostatním osobnostem, které i za cenu nejvyšší posouvaly vývoj dějin kupředu.Bonusy:• Komentář Neila Jordana• Na slovíčko s Neilem Jordanem• Vystřižené scény• Trailer• The South Bank Show Rozhovor s Neilem Jordanem a záběry skutečného Michaela Collinse – dokument

Decline can be avoided. Decline can be detected. Decline can be reversed.Amidst the desolate landscape of fallen great companies, Jim Collins began to wonder: How do the mighty fall? Can decline be detected early and avoided? How far can a company fall before the path toward doom becomes inevitable and unshakable? How can companies reverse course?In How the Mighty Fall, Collins confronts these questions, offering leaders the well-founded hope that they can learn how to stave off decline and, if they find themselves falling, reverse their course. Collins' research project-more than four years in duration-uncovered five step-wise stages of decline: Stage 1: Hubris Born of SuccessStage 2: Undisciplined Pursuit of MoreStage 3: Denial of Risk and PerilStage 4: Grasping for SalvationStage 5: Capitulation to Irrelevance or DeathBy understanding these stages of decline, leaders can substantially reduce their chances of falling all the way to the bottom. Great companies can stumble, badly, and recover.Every institution, no matter how great, is vulnerable to decline. There is no law of nature that the most powerful will inevitably remain at the top. Anyone can fall and most eventually do.But, as Collins' research emphasizes, some companies do indeed recover-in some cases, coming back even stronger-even after having crashed into the depths of Stage 4. Decline, it turns out, is largely self-inflicted, and the path to recovery lies largely within our own hands. We are not imprisoned by our circumstances, our history, or even our staggering defeats along the way.As long as we never get entirely knocked out of the game, hope always remains. The mighty can fall, but they can often rise again.

''Among the best poems that Collins has ever written'' – NPRIn Water, Water Billy Collins writes with joy and wonder about the beauties and ironies of everyday life. The best poems, he believes, begin in clarity and end with a hint of the sublime: A cat learns to drink from a swimming pool. An astronaut recites Emily Dickinson in space. Here is a writer devotedly in love with the world around him, fascinated by its pleasures but generously sensitive of its pains.Ever a laureate of the oblique, Collins is especially sensitive to disappearances and acts of concealment, sketching objects by the outlines their absence leaves: ‘Everything in this hard place’, reflects one voice in ‘Crying in Class’, ‘is designed to disappear.’ From grief’s soft echoes, to the atheist equally afraid of heaven and hell, Collins remains as keenly vigilant of the light as he does the shadows which dance at its edges.‘A poet of plenitude, irony, and Augustan grace’ The New Yorker''Witty, wry and tender when it hurts, Water, Water is a pleasure to read and easy to give'' – The Washington Post

Who, in the name of wonder, had taken the Moonstone out of Miss Rachel''s drawer?A celebrated Indian yellow diamond is first stolen from India, then vanishes from a Yorkshire country house. Who took it? And where is it now? A dramatist as well as a novelist, Wilkie Collins gives to each of his narratorsa household servant, a detective, a lawyer, a cloth-eared Evangelical, a dying medical manvibrant identities as they separately tell the part of the story that concerns themselves.One of the great triumphs of nineteenth-century sensation fiction, The Moonstone tells of a mystery that for page after page becomes more, not less inexplicable. Collins''s novel of addictions is itself addictive, moving through a sequence of startling revelations towards the final disclosure of the truth. Entranced with double lives, with men and women who only know part of the story, Collins weaves their narratives into a web of suspense. The Moonstone is a text that grows imaginatively out of the secrets that the unconventional Collins was obliged to keep as he wrote the novel.

Includes a hilarious new introduction from Daisy Buchanan, talking about what this book and Jackie means to her! 'We all want to be Lucky for one specific reason, and it isn't her wealth or her looks. It's because she makes things happen' DAISY BUCHANAN'Jackie Collins’s daring, unapologetic stroke of the pen, combined with her glorious wit, has single-handedly given creative license to new generations of authors and storytellers.'

But Jackie Collins’ novels are the only ones I can read over and over’ AMY ROWLAND ‘Jackie wrote with shameless ambition, ruthless passion and pure diamond-dusted sparkle’ CATHERINE STEADMAN ‘Here is a woman who not only wanted to entertain her readers, but also to teach them something; about the world and about themselves’ ISABELLE BROOM ‘Lessons galore on every page… about feminism, equality, tolerance and love’ CARMEL HARRINGTON ‘Jackie is the queen of cliff-hangers’ SAMANTHA TONGE ‘For all her trademark sass, there is a moralist at work here’ LOUISE CANDLISH ‘Nobody does it quite like Jackie and nobody ever will’ SARRA MANNING ‘Jackie wrote about Hollywood with total authenticity, breaking all the rules and taboos’ BARBARA TAYLOR BRADFORD ‘Collins was saying that women didn’t have to centre round men, either in books or in life’ JESSIE BURTON ‘Jackie lived the Hollywood dream, but, she looked sideways at it, and then shared the dirt with her readers’ JULIET ASHTON ‘What radiates from her novels, is a sense that women are capable of great things’ ALEXANDRA HEMINSLEY

`This time the fiction is founded upon facts'' stated Wilkie Collins in his Preface to Man and Wife (1870). Many Victorian writers responded to contemporary debates on the rights and the legal status of women, and here Collins questions the deeply inequitable marriage laws of his day. Man and Wife examines the plight of a woman who, promised marriage by one man, comes to believe that she may inadvertently have gone through a form of marriage with his friend, as recognized by the archaic laws of Scotland and Ireland. From this starting-point Collins develops a radical critique of the values and conventions of Victorian society. Collins had already developed a reputation as the master of the `sensation novel'', and Man and Wife is as fast moving and unpredictable as The Moonstone and The Woman in White. During the novel the atmosphere grows increasingly sinister as the setting moves from a country house to a London suburb and a world of confinement, plotting, and murder. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

From Marcus Collins, strategist to Apple, Nike and Beyoncé, discover how you can harness the most powerful vehicle for influencing behaviour: true cultural engagement.''Compelling and vivid'' – Robert Cialdini, author of Pre-SuasionWe all try to influence others in our daily lives. We are all marketers, whether you are a manager motivating your team, an employee making a big presentation, an activist staging a protest or a company executive selling the next big thing.

Using captivating stories from his own life as a top marketer – including spearheading digital strategy for Beyoncé, working with iTunes and Nike+ on their collaboration, and designing ads for McDonalds – he shows how you can do the same.Full of memorable examples, from 1960s hippy culture to the enduring success of Patagonia, For the Culture offers the essential tools for creating lasting engagement and influence.''Some people seem to intuitively ‘get it.’ Most do not.

With millions of her books sold around the world, and thirty-one New York Times bestsellers, she is one of the world’s top-selling novelists.

Existují společnosti, které navzdory těžkostem přemění dlouhodobě průměrný či ještě horší výkon na dlouhodobě skvělé výsledky? A pokud ano, jaké jsou univerzální určující vlastnosti, které způsobí, že se společnost změní z dobré ve skvělou? Za použití přísných testů určil Jim Collins a jeho výzkumný tým elitní skupinu společností, kterým se podařilo začít dosahovat skvělých výkonů a tyto skvělé výkony si udržet po dobu minimálně patnácti let. Jak byly skvělé? Po své transformaci vytvářely tyto firmy kumulované výnosy akcií, které překonávaly běžný akciový trh za patnáct let v průměru sedminásobně, což je dvakrát více, než společný výkon největších světových společností, jako např. Coca-Cola, Intel, General Electric a Merck. Výzkumný tým porovnával firmy, které se z dobrých staly skvělými, s pečlivě vybranou skupinou porovnávaných společností, kterým se přeměna z dobrých na skvělé nepodařila. V čem byl rozdíl? Proč se jedné skupině podařilo stát se skvělou, zatímco d ruhá skupina zůstala jenom dobrá? Výzkumný tým analyzoval historii všech osmadvaceti společností ve studii celých pět let. Po prozkoumání ohromného množství dat a tisíců stran rozhovorů objevil Jim Collins a jeho tým rozhodující faktory pro úspěšnou přeměnu dobrého ve skvělé - proč některé společnosti udělají velký skok vpřed a jiné ne. Poznatky zjištěné ve studii budou pro mnohé překvapením. Vrhají světlo na prakticky všechny oblasti manažerské strategie a praxe. Klíčové poznatky: Vůdcové 5. úrovně: Výzkumný tým šokovalo zjištění, jaký typ vůdce je potřebný k dosažení skvělosti. Ježčí koncepce (jednoduchost v rámci tří kruhů): Přeměna dobrého ve skvělé vyžaduje překročení prokletí kvalifikace. Kultura disciplíny: Spojíte-li kulturu disciplíny s etikou podnikání, získáte kouzelný recept na skvělé výsledky. Technologické akcelerátory: Firmy, které se z dobrých staly skvělými, mají na roli technologie odlišný pohled. Setrvačník a bludný kruh: Těm, kdo spouštějí programy radikálních změn a velkých restrukturalizací, se téměř s určitostí skok od dobrého ke skvělému nepodaří. "Některé klíčové koncepce objevené ve studii," poznamenává Jim Collins, "jsou v naprostém rozporu s naší moderní podnikatelskou kulturou a některé lidi upřímně rozčílí." Možné to je, ale kdo si může dovolit tato zjištění ignorovat?

Francis Collins rozoberá vzťah vedy a náboženstva s rozumom a s úctou. Jeho kombinácia jasného vedeckého výkladu a osobnej reflexie je presiaknutá intelektuálnou aj duchovnou poctivosťou. Každý, kto sa pýta, ako môže byť viera zosúladená s vedeckým poznaním, každý, kto sa obáva, že moderná veda podrýva základy náboženstva, každý, kto sa chce zúčastniť na informovanej diskusii o kritických otázkach našej doby, by si mal túto knihu prečítať.William D. Phillipsfyzik, držiteľ Nobelovej ceny (1997) za objavy v oblasti laserového chladenia elementárnych častíc Francis Collins a jeho kniha sú pre mňa príkladom, ako konzistentne veriť Biblii a byť zároveň skvelým vedcom. Spolu s ním sa divím nad zázrakom toho, ako Boh vytvoril zložitosť vesmíru aj života pomocou zdanlivo jednoduchých procesov a inštrukcií.Daniel Nagajslovenský vedec, doktorát z kvantovej fyziky obhájil na MIT Center for Theoretical Physics v Bostone Napriek tomu, že Francis Collins je vedec a lekár na svetovej úrovni, racionalitu a poctivé vedecké uvažovanie nevníma v konflikte s morálkou či vierou. Naopak, intelektuálna poctivosť pre neho znamená ako systematické uvažovanie o ľudskom genóme, tak aj uvažovanie o hraniciach správnosti ľudského konania. V tejto knihe ponúka ojedinelú kombináciu, keď rovnocenne zastupuje záujmy vedeckého pokroku aj bioetiky. Upozorňuje na demagógiu , často typickú pre obe strany, a vyzýva na diskusiu založenú na racionálnom prístupe a vzájomnom rešpekte.Lucia Krčméryoválekárka a bioetička, absolventka Kolégia Antona Neuwirtha a LF UK, medicínsku etiku a právo vyštudovala na King's College London

Deset let po celosvětově úspěšném bestselleru „Jak z dobré firmy udělat skvělou“ přichází Jim Collins s dalším průkopnickým dílem, ve které si klade otázku, proč některé firmy v nejistých časech nebo dokonce v chaosu prosperují, zatímco jiné strádají? Na základě devítiletého výzkumu podpořeného důkladnou analýzou a naplněného poutavými příběhy Collins a jeho kolega Morten Hansen představují principy budování skvělé firmy v nepředvídatelném, bouřlivém a rychle se měnícím prostředí. Tato kniha je klasický Collins: polemizující, empirický a povznášející. Spolu s Hansenem přesvědčivě ukazují, že i v nejistém a chaotickém světě je dosažení úspěchu otázkou volby, nikoliv náhody.

In his own words is the candid, witty, and unvarnished story of the songs and shows, the hits and pans, the marriages and divorces, the ascents to the top of the charts and into the tabloid headlines.As one of only three musicians to sell over 100 million records both in a group and as a solo artist, Collins breathes rare air, but he has never lost his talent for crafting songs that touch listeners around the globe. This is the story of his epic career, from child actor to one of the most successful songwriters of the pop music era. A drummer since almost before he could walk, Collins received on-the-job training in the seedy, thrilling bars and clubs of 1960s swinging London before finally landing the drum seat in Genesis. Later he would step into the spotlight on vocals after the departure of Peter Gabriel, and compose the songs that would rocket him to international solo fame with the release of Face Value and ''In the Air Tonight''. Whether he''s recalling jamming with Eric Clapton and Robert Plant, pulling together a big band fronted by Tony Bennett, playing twice at Live Aid, or writing the Oscar-winning music for Disney''s smash-hit animated film Tarzan, Collins keeps it intimate and his storytelling gift never wavers.

__________________*From the author of the multi-million-copy bestseller Good to Great*‘No matter what your walk of life, no matter how big or small your enterprise, no matter whether it’s for-profit or nonprofit, no matter whether you’re CEO or a unit leader, the question stands, How does your flywheel turn?’ – JIM COLLINS__________________The key to business success is not a single innovation or one plan. It is the act of turning the flywheel, slowly gaining momentum and eventually reaching a breakthrough. Building upon the flywheel concept introduced in his groundbreaking classic Good to Great, Jim Collins teaches readers how to create their own flywheel, how to accelerate the flywheel’s momentum, and how to stay on the flywheel in shifting markets and during times of turbulence.Combining research from his Good to Great labs and case studies from organisations like Amazon, Vanguard, and the Cleveland Clinic which have turned their flywheels with outstanding results, Collins demonstrates that successful organisations can disrupt the world around them – and reach unprecedented success – by employing the flywheel concept.

The debut collection of essays from one of Britain's most celebrated photographers. For many years, photographer Michael Collins had wondered what exactly it was that he found so mysterious and compelling about photography. In this series of linked pieces, Collins offers a reappraisal of photographic genres – including the humble and ubiquitous – that he believes are worthy of greater understanding. From restoring abandoned photos, whose subjects are lost to time, to a quotidian history of the studio portrait; from tracing the origins of the photographic survey within the wider field of the history of art to an experiment in portraiture using gorillas, Collins reveals what it is about photography that is so enduringly fascinating.

'A seamless tale of love, loss, betrayal and, above all, hope' Alexandra Walsh AD 61Brittania is in the hands of the Romans but when the conquering army betray the dead King Prasutagus by defiling his daughters, his Queen, Boudicca, is determined to regain her land. Iceni slave Brea remembers little of the time before the Romans, and has grown used to their louche and indulgent customs. She diligently goes about her duties looking after the artless Aurelia, wife-to-be of the handsome war hero Marcellus, but her longing for freedom and her desire to find her lost father, are never far from her mind. Present DayWhen Hanna returns to Norfolk from years working abroad, the strange dreams of her adolescence return: indistinct figures in tunics, mighty soldiers in armour, gladiators, temples, an Iceni warrior woman leading her people. Gradually Hanna’s dreams begin to slip into the present as visions in the famous mists rolling across the fens, and as shocks of recognition when a new face moves to her childhood home. As Hanna realises that she has a connection with a tragedy that occurred many years before, so Brea has to understand that her fate is bound up with her Roman master. And as the drumbeat of rebellion gets ever closer Brea must make the fatal choice between love and loyalty while Hanna has to find a way to make peace with the past.

''The unofficial voice of modern Irish history'' EconomistWhen President of the Irish Republic Michael Collins signed the Anglo-Irish Treaty in December 1921, he remarked to Lord Birkenhead, ''I may have signed my actual death warrant.'' In August 1922 at the height of the Irish Civil War, that prophecy came true - Collins was shot and killed by a fellow Irishman in a shocking political assassination.So ended the life of the greatest of all Irish nationalists, but his visions and legacy lived on.This authorative and comprehensive biography presents the life of a man who became a legend in his own lifetime, whose idealistic vigour and determination were matched only by his political realism and supreme organisational abilities. Coogan''s biography provides a fascinating insight into a great political leader, whilst vividly portraying the political unrest in a divided Ireland, that can help to shape our understanding of Ireland''s past, present and future.''There have been several other lives of Collins, but none has assembled such wealth of detail'' Independent on Sunday

''No other person who has flown in space has captured the experience so vividly'' - New York Times Book Review In July 1969, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins piloted the Apollo 11 spacecraft to the moon. Fifty years later, it is still one of the greatest achievements in human history.In this remarkable memoir, Michael Collins conveys, in a very personal way, the drama, beauty, and humour of that adventure. He also traces his development from his first flight experiences in the air force, through his days as a test pilot, to his involvement in Project Gemini and his first spaceflight on Gemini 10. He presents an evocative picture of the famous Apollo 11 spacewalk, detailing the joys of flight and a new perspective on time, light, and movement from someone who has seen the fragile Earth from the other side of the moon.Updated with a new preface to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moon-landing, Carrying the Fire by Michael Collins is the utterly absorbing and truly compelling classic account of what it was like to be a member of the Apollo 11 mission to the moon.
