Just in time for the Chairman''s centennial, the endlessly absorbing sequel to James Kaplan''s bestselling Frank: The VoiceFinally the definitive biography that Frank Sinatra, justly termed ''The Entertainer of the Century,'' deserves and requires. Like Peter Guralnick on Elvis, Kaplan goes behind the legend to give us the man in full, in his many guises and aspects: peerless singer, (sometimes) powerful actor, business mogul, tireless lover and associate of the powerful and infamous.In 2010''s Frank: The Voice, James Kaplan, in rich, distinctive, compulsively-readable prose, told the story of Frank Sinatra''s meteoric rise to fame, subsequent failures, and reinvention as a star of the stage and screen. The story of ''Ol'' Blue Eyes; continues with Sinatra: The Chairman, picking up the day after Frank claimed his Academy Award in 1954 and had reestablished himself as the top recording artist in music. Frank''s life post-Oscar was incredibly dense: in between recording albums and singles, he often shot four or five movies a year; did TV show and nightclub appearances; started his own label, Reprise; and juggled his considerable commercial ventures (movie production, the restaurant business, even prizefighter management) alongside his famous and sometimes notorious social activities and commitments.

1959 saw Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans and the other members of Miles''s sextet come together to record the bestselling jazz album of all time: Kind of Blue. 3 Shades of Blue follows the paths of Miles, Coltrane and Evans to the mountaintop of 1959 and their roads on from there. It''s a book about music and business, race and heroin, and an astonishing meditation on creativity and the strange hothouses that can produce its full flowering. But above all this is the story of three very different men - their struggles, their choices, their inspiration. The tapestry of their lives is, in James Kaplan''s hands, an American Odyssey.

V této provokativní knize nabízí Robert D. Kaplan, autor několika bestsellerů ve Spojených státech amerických, nový pohled na globální změny a snaží se najít odpověď na otázku, čemu jednotlivé kontinenty a státy budou muset v budoucích letech čelit. Kaplan navazuje na poznatky, objevy a teorie významných geografů a geopolitických myslitelů z nedávné i vzdálené minulosti a vrací se k ústředním momentům historie. Zároveň se ale zamýšlí nad tím, jakým směrem bude dnešní globální vývoj pokračovat. Autor sleduje historii nepokojných oblastí ve světě a všímá si, jakou roli v těchto krajinách hraje podnebí, topografie či vztahy se sousedními státy. Popisuje například, že nelítostné podnebí ruské stepi a omezená vegetace vychovaly tvrdé obyvatele odhodlané bojovat do posledního muže. S tím ale nepočítali nacisté, kteří geopolitiku překrucovali, když se domnívali, že by území ovládaná Britským impériem a Sovětským svazem mohla být pohlcena větším Německem. Autor své poznatky následně aplikuje na současnou Evropu, Rusko, Čínu, Indický subkontinent, Turecko, Írán a arabský Střední východ. Nabízí celistvý pohled na budoucí konflikty v celé Eurasii. Budoucnost je vnímána v kontextu klimatu, území a dalších daností: například čínské zemědělství je schopné uživit pouze 23 % svého obyvatelstva, protože má k dispozici pouze 7 % orné půdy. Čína proto hledá zdroje energie, minerálů a kovů u krutých režimů, jako je Barma, Írán či Zimbabwe, čímž se staví do morálního konfliktu se Spojenými státy. Afghánistán se svou propustnou hranicí bude představovat hlavní trasu invazí směřujících do Indie, ale i záložní základnu Pákistánu, pro který je Indie hlavní nepřítel. Írán bude i nadále využívat výhodu, že je jedinou zemí, která má přístup ke zdrojům energie z Perského zálivu i Kaspického moře. Navíc Kaplan předpokládá, že Spojené státy budou litovat toho, že se angažovaly ve vzdáleném Iráku a Afghánistánu, namísto aby se zabývaly svým přímým sousedem Mexikem, který se řítí do zkázy v důsledku vraždění drogových kartelů.

Jedna z nejoblíbenějších humoristických knih posledního století. Jiskřivý humor, spočívající v jazyce, jeho záludnostech a slovních hříčkách. Autor svou již legendární knihu po obrovském úspěchu vícekrát přepracoval a doplnil o další epizody a postavy, aniž narušil neopakovatelnou atmosféru díla, které baví již několik čtenářských generací. Stejně kreativně pak k dílu přistoupil překladatel Antonín Přidal a mnohé z jeho formulací navždy vešly do slovníku českých čtenářů. Třída profesora Parkhilla je vskutku pestrá, co student, to osobnost, osud, národnost a ojedinělý přístup ke zvládání zákeřností jazyka, který je nutné si osvojit, aby se dalo v nových podmínkách žít co nejlépe. Profesor Parkhill totiž na newyorské Večerní přípravné škole pro dospělé vyučuje angličtinu přistěhovalce z (nejen, ale převážně) východní Evropy. Po skvělém překladu Pavla Eisnera se k nám vrátil v geniálním překladu Antonína Přidala (byť se v takovém případě spíš než o překladu dá mluvit o spoluautorství) a myšlenkové a jazykové kotrmelce pana Kaplana se tak můžou dostávat do slovníku dalších a dalších generací. Studenti VPŠD možná přicházejí a odcházejí, ale Hyman Kaplan zůstává. Protože pan Kaplan nejen, že má svou třídu rád. Pan Kaplan má STÁLE třídu rád. A je to dobře, protože jen od něj a skrz něj se dozvíme, co je "šivot v klopále".

A darkly brilliant, wide-angled vision of our chaotic, globalised world, where present crises resonate with past tyrannies—from a bestselling geopolitical expert. We are entering a new era of global cataclysm; a deadly mix of war, climate change, great-power rivalry, rapid technological advancement, and the end of empire. In Waste Land, renowned world affairs author Robert D. Kaplan explains incisively how we got here and where we are going. Kaplan’s trademark sweep of history, literature, politics and philosophy draws parallels between today’s challenges and those of Germany’s interwar Weimar Republic. Today, too, every national disaster could spread across the world, given this century’s singular dilemmas—pandemics, recessions; urbanisation, mass migration; destabilisation under large-scale democracy and great-power conflict; and the intimate bonds forged by digital media.Could stability and historic liberalism, rather than mass democracy per se, save world populations from anarchic breakdown? Waste Land is a bracing glimpse into a future defined by twenty-first–century technology, but remarkably resonant with the past. The situation may be spiralling out of our control—unless our leaders act first.

A funny, fresh, and brilliantly insightful collection of stories from a beloved writer, with a new introduction by Francine ProseJohanna Kaplan’s beautifully written stories first burst on the literary scene in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Today they have retained all of their depth, surprise, and humor—their simultaneously scathing, hilarious, and compassionate insight into character and behavior. From Miriam, home from school with the measles, to Louise, the daughter of a family that fled Vienna for the Dominican Republic, to Naomi, a young psychiatrist, her heroines are fierce, tender, funny, and cuttingly smart.At once specific to a particular period, place, and milieu—mainly, Jewish New York in the decades after World War II—Kaplan’s stories resonate with universal significance. In this new collection, which includes both early and later stories, unforgettably vivid characters are captured in all of their forceful presence and singularity, their foolishness and their wisdom, their venality and their nobility, while, hovering in the background, the inexorable passage of time and the unending pull of memory render silent judgment.In its pitch-perfect command of dialogue matched with interwoven subtleties of insight and feeling and a masterful control of language, Loss of Memory Is Only Temporary is itself a timeless collection of the finest work by one of the most extraordinary talents of our age.

A game-changing approach to emotional health and well-being After suffering profound tragedy in her teens and coping by suppressing the emotions, Rachel Kaplan began a journey of study, therapy, and eventual breakthrough. She knows from experience that many of us avoid actually feeling our feelings. Instead, we store them in a kind of emotional constipation, chasing distraction, addiction, and other forms of suppression. The only way to heal and to live healthier, happier lives is to move the emotions through our bodies. Kaplan presents a revolutionary and irreverent approach to personal transformation and self-care that teaches you precisely how to feel emotions — and release them as nature intended. Doing so is the definitive means for establishing a baseline of well-being and self-trust and overcoming the debilitating effects of core wounds, chronic stress, depression, and backlogged emotional pain. By letting that sh*t go, you can enjoy the life you’re living and know your worth, no matter what.

Twice Born opens with the death of Hester''s father, Justin Kaplan, known for his award-winning biographies of Mark Twain and Walt Whitman. Despite his relatively prolific output, Justin rarely wrote, or said, much about himself-even to his daughter. Standing at his open casket, Hester has the realisation that while alive, her father never looked her in the eyes. Hester takes on the challenge of piecing together as intimate a biography of her own father as possible, comparing his story to the lives of his biographical subjects and dissecting the various personas he presents to the world-from which the name ''dad,'' ''daddy,'' or even ''father'' is conspicuously and painfully absent. Parallel to Justin''s story runs Hester''s own journey of development as a writer and a thinker, which begins in the shadow of not only her talented father, but also her novelist mother, and the fiercely protective union the two of them had built, often to the exclusion of their own children. In sensitive, intimate writing, Kaplan paints a rich picture of the twentieth century literary world that she grew up in, all while reflecting on the deceptive nature of memory, the loneliness of creative pursuits, and the dovetailing paradoxes of biographical and autobiographical writing.

The surprisingly dramatic role of nutrition in our mental health, and how diet and micronutrients can be used to help treat and prevent anxiety, depression, ADHD and other mental health disorders.''The Better Brain is the first book that will tell you both how and why nutrients can be used to treat mental-health issues. We are scientists who''ve uncovered that many symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD and more are caused by suboptimal nutrition. We''ve been doing research and clinical studies on this crucial topic for decades, yet we have never published our findings for a general audience before. Following our lectures and Julia''s TEDx Talk, we get asked questions all the time about our findings and why nutrients are so important for our brains. People want to know more. They''re desperate for answers. This is our solution.'' Leading scientists Bonnie Kaplan and Julia Rucklidge have dedicated their careers to researching the role that diet and nutrition play in our mental health. Together they have published several hundred peer-reviewed studies - those from the last two decades reveal the healing power of nutrients and the surprising role they play in brain health. In this paradigm-shifting book, Kaplan and Rucklidge share their groundbreaking research for the first time and explain how to feed your brain to stabilise your mood, stave off depression and make yourself more resilient to daily stress. The Better Brain also reveals the hidden causes of the rising rates of depression, from the nutrients in our soil to our reliance on processed food. It explains why a diet rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, pulses, fish and olive oil is healthiest for your brain, and why some people benefit from supplementary minerals and vitamins added to such a diet. Complete with a nutritional plan and thirty delicious, mood-boosting recipes, this book will be a complete guide to a healthier, happier brain.

The best-selling book on heart disease, updated with the latest research and clinical findings on high-fat/ketogenic diets, sugar, genetics, and other factors.Heart disease is the #1 killer. However, traditional heart disease protocols—with their emphasis on lowering cholesterol—have it all wrong. Emerging science is showing that cholesterol levels are a poor predictor of heart disease and that standard prescriptions for lowering it, such as ineffective low-fat/high-carb diets and serious, side-effect-causing statin drugs, obscure the real causes of heart disease. Even doctors at leading institutions have been misled for years based on creative reporting of research results from pharmaceutical companies intent on supporting the $31-billion-a-year cholesterol-lowering drug industry.The Great Cholesterol Myth reveals the real culprits of heart disease, including: inflammation, fibrinogen, triglycerides, homocysteine, belly fat, triglyceride to HDL ratios, and high glycemic levels.Best-selling health authors Jonny Bowden, PhD, and Stephen Sinatra, MD, give readers a four-part strategy based on the latest studies and clinical findings for effectively preventing, managing, and reversing heart disease, focusing on diet, exercise, supplements, and stress and anger management. Myths vs. FactsMyth: High cholesterol is the cause of heart disease.Fact: Cholesterol is only a minor player in the cascade of inflammation which is a cause of heart disease.Myth: Saturated fat is dangerous.Fact: Saturated fats are not dangerous. The killer fats are the transfats from partially hydrogenated oils.​Myth: The higher the cholesterol, the shorter the lifespan.Fact: Higher cholesterol protects you from gastrointestinal disease, pulmonary disease, and hemorrhagic stroke.Myth: High cholesterol is a predictor of heart attack.Fact: There is no correlation between cholesterol and heart attacks.Myth: Lowering cholesterol with statin drugs will prolong your life.Fact: There is no data to show that statins have a significant impact on longevity.Myth: Statin drugs are safe.Fact: Statin drugs can be extremely toxic including causing death.Myth: Statin drugs are useful in men, women, and the elderly.Fact: Statin drugs do the best job in middle-aged men with coronary disease.Myth: Statin drugs are useful in middle-aged men with coronary artery disease because of its impact on cholesterol.Fact: Statin drugs reduce inflammation and improve blood viscosity (thinning blood).

Jméno autora knihy rabiho Aryeh Kaplana není českému čtenáři neznámé. Po titulech Meditace a kabala, Sefer jecira a Kniha Bahir vychází i překlad dalšího jeho stěžejního díla: Meditace a Bible. Rabi Kaplan v něm ukazuje, že vztah těchto dvou na první pohled nesourodých pojmů je mnohem bližší, než si většina dnešních čtenářů Bible uvědomuje. Po úvodním vymezení a definování termínů nás autor provede svými poznatky o dávné tradici proroků a kabalistů, seznámí nás s výkladem vizí a Božích jmen a systematicky popíše různé prorocké a kabalistické meditační techniky. Závěr knihy je věnován tzv. verbální archeologii, která na základě zjištěných souvislostí rozšiřuje (mnohdy velmi překvapivě) význam a výklad konkrétních biblických slov a veršů.

Pro většinu lidí znamená samotné slovo "kabala" mystickou zkušenost par excellence, avšak většina moderních knih vrhá jen slabé světlo na tyto starověké, mystické a magické aspekty. Rabi A. Kaplan proto přeložil Sefer Jeciru, nejstarší a nejmysterióznější z kabalistických textů a nyní osvětluje teoretické, meditativní a magické souvislosti těchto textů..

Změny v mezinárodních vztazích, v nichž se v šedesátých a počátkem sedmdesátých let 20. století střídaly tendence k uvolnění s prvky prudkého zostření mezi oběma světovými tábory, a současně změny uvnitř římskokatolické církve (II. vatikánský koncil) vytvořily podmínky pro řešení některých sporných bodů mezi československou vládou a Vatikánem, k nimž patřilo jmenování nových biskupů, "případ" Josefa Berana a obsazení pražského arcibiskupství, situace řeckokatolické církve apod.

The tank is such a characteristic feature of modern warfare that its difficult to imagine a time when its presence wasn''t felt on the battlefield in some form or another. This volume, from eminent historian and author Philip Kaplan, traces the history of the vehicle from its developmental early days on the battlefields of the Great War, to modern-day uses and innovations in response to the growing demands of twenty-first century warfare. During and after the First World War, in the wake of such momentous loss of life on the battlefields, the need to move away from large army deployment and maneuvers was considered to be particularly pressing. The need to mechanize forces and to develop aircraft and other militarized vehicles became a major preoccupation of the engineers of the day, enabling a smaller number of well-trained and well-equipped personnel to be deployed in place of hordes of lesser-armed men. The necessity to rescue pilots shot down in the Dunkirk area precipitated the first large-scale usage of the early tank. From here, they were to be employed extensively, playing such an integral part in the proceedings during the battles of Barbarossa, El Alamein, Kursk and Ardennes. Right on through the twentieth and into the twenty-first century, the tank has survived as one of the most necessary weapons of war and one of its most recognizable emblems. Chapters dedicated specifically to a number of the battles listed above feature in the work, setting the various developmental milestones of the tanks employed in context. Featured in this volume are images of some of the most highly regarded and imposing types, such as the Chrysler-built Grant, the Skoda-built Hungarian Turan and the M-26 Pershing tank, employed so extensively during the Korean War. British, American and German built tanks all feature, both within the library of black and white photographic plates on display and in the narrative history itself. A character afforded a particularly prominent spotlight within this history is Heinz Guderian, considered by many to be ''the father of modern tank warfare and Germany''s Panzer Force''. From the battlefields of the Great War to modern-day theaters such as Iraq and Afghanistan, the history of this impressive war machine is tracked in detail. Certain to appeal to military enthusiasts with a particular interest in this most iconic armored vehicle, it is set to make a welcome addition to many personal libraries.

As long as the word genius has existed it''s been narrowly defined and understood. Surveys show that when anyone, male or female, is asked to name a genius, the answers are predictable - Albert Einstein. Leonardo Da Vinci. Steve Jobs. But when the same group of people are asked to name a female genius, they can only come up with ONE name: Marie Curie. Janice Kaplan, the New York Times bestselling author of The Gratitude Diaries, set out to find out why, using her unique mix of memoir, narrative, and a sprinkling of self-help. Through interviews with neuroscientists, psychologists, and yes, a large number of actual female geniuses, she proves in this book that genius isn''t just about talent - it''s about having that talent recognised, both historically, and, surprisingly, today.

"AI expert Jerry Kaplan explains how generative AI will revolutionize virtually every human activity. Highly recommended." - Francis Fukuyama, Political scientist and author of The End of History and the Last Man Advances in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) have created a new class of computer systems that exhibit astonishing proficiency on a wide variety of tasks with superhuman performance, producing novel text, images, music, and software by analyzing enormous collections of digitized information. Soon, these systems will provide expert medical care; offer legal advice; draft documents; write computer programs; tutor our children; and generate music and art. These advances will accelerate progress in science, art, and human knowledge, but they will also bring new dangers. Have we finally discovered the holy grail of AI - machines that match or exceed human intelligence? Which industries and professions will thrive, and which will wither? What risks and dangers will it pose? How can we ensure that these systems respect our ethical principles? Will the benefits be broadly distributed or accrue to a lucky few? How will GAI alter our political systems and international conflicts? Are we merely a stepping stone to a new form of non-biological life, or are we just getting better at building useful gadgets?

A groundbreaking look at the integral role of women in early modern Jewish communal lifeIn small villages, bustling cities, and crowded ghettos across early modern Europe, Jewish women were increasingly active participants in the daily life of their communities, managing homes and professions, leading institutions and sororities, and crafting objects and texts of exquisite beauty. A Woman Is Responsible for Everything marshals a dazzling array of previously untapped archival sources to tell the stories of these woman for the first time. Debra Kaplan and Elisheva Carlebach focus their lens on the kehillah, a lively and thriving form of communal life that sustained European Jews for three centuries. They paint vibrant portraits of Jewish women of all walks of life, from those who wielded their wealth and influence in and out of their communities to the poorest maidservants and vagrants, from single and married women to the widowed and divorced. We follow them into their homes and learn about the possessions they valued and used, the books they read, and the writings they composed. Speaking to us in their own voices, these women reveal tremendous economic initiative in the rural marketplace and the princely court, and they express their profound spirituality in the home as well as the synagogue. Beautifully illustrated, A Woman Is Responsible for Everything lifts the veil of silence that has obscured the lives of these women for too long, contributing a new chapter to the history of Jewish women and a new understanding of the Jewish past.

Soudní proces s Miladou Horákovou a spol. patřil k závažným událostem v dějinách Československa a představoval zlomový bod v historii politických procesů, jehož výsledkem byly čtyři justiční vraždy, na nichž se podílely komunistická strana, bezpečnost, justice i tehdejší hromadné sdělovací prostředky, jejichž úkolem bylo vylíčit obžalované jako zločince nejhoršího zrna. Příčiny, okolnosti a průběh vykonstruovaného procesu jsou představeny na základě archivních materiálů, přičemž některé z nich dosud nebyly publikovány. Pozornost je věnována především na dokumenty ilustrující mechanismus "výroby" procesu v justici a na to, jak mimořádný význam a péči mu přisuzovalo komunistické vedení a klíčové složky bezpečnostního aparátu. Cenným materiálem jsou též výpovědi spoluvězeňkyně Dr. Horákové, Věry Hložkové, kterou k ní do cely nasadila Státní bezpečnost. Zmíněné dokumenty umožňují alespoň částečně nahlédnout do myšlenkového světa Milady Horákové a vykreslují snahu nového režimu zbavit se oponentů nikoliv jen jako justiční a politický zločin, nýbrž také jako osobní tragédii těch, kteří uvízli v soukolí vykonstruovaného procesu.
