The narrative surrounding Britain’s anti-invasion forces has often centred on ‘Dad’s Army’-like characters running around with pitchforks, on unpreparedness and sense of inevitability of invasion and defeat. The truth, however, is very different.  Top-secret, highly trained and ruthless civilian volunteers were being recruited as early as the summer of 1940. Had the Germans attempted an invasion they would have been countered by saboteurs and guerrilla fighters emerging from secret bunkers, and monitored by swathes of spies and observers who would have passed details on via runners, wireless operators and ATS women in disguised bunkers. Alongside these secret forces, the Home Guard were also setting up their own ‘guerrilla groups’, and SIS (MI6) were setting up post-occupation groups of civilians – including teenagers – to act as sabotage cells, wireless operators and assassins had the Nazis taken control of the country. The civilians involved in these groups understood the need for absolute secrecy and their commitment to keeping quiet meant that most went to their grave without ever telling anyone of their role, not even their closest family members. There has been no official and little public recognition of what these dedicated men and women were willing to do for their country in its hour of need, and after over 80 years of silence the time has come to highlight their remarkable role.

You don’t have to be a victim of time any longer. No matter how much we try to plan ahead and organize our to-do lists, everyone seems to face the same universal struggle: there’s never enough time. But what if time, that supposedly linear, inevitable phenomenon, isn’t what you think it is? What if you could actually have all the time in the world—and more? With her groundbreaking book, All the Time in the World, researcher Lisa Broderick reveals the new science of time so you can master it for yourself. Drawing from physics, quantum law, and psychological theory, Broderick will help you shift your fixed constructs around time into something more fluid and malleable. Then, with dozens of step-by-step practices, you’ll learn to put theory into action and become the master of your own experience of time. Highlights include: • Learn powerful, science-based practices for stretching and bending time to meet your personal needs • Understand the quantum laws that govern our experience of time • Explore the moments you’ve already felt time “slowing down”—and learn to consciously create this experience on demand • Why time is not the unchanging linear property of human experience we believe it to be • Flow states and getting in the zone—how to alter your perceptions, increase focus, and accomplish your goals • Healing the past by “time traveling” through your perceptions • How “experiencing your life in advance” can help you manifest the future outcomes • Discover why upgrading your relationship with time is the secret to creating the reality you desire and living without limitations“Our ability to influence our experience of time is the key to doing what we are here to do,” writes Broderick. “As you liberate yourself from the illusion of time as we know it, you will become a confident creator of your own reality. You have all the time in the world.”

''Guy Standing''s books have, over the years, pieced together a necessary political and intellectual agenda ... His Politics of Time is a splendid and timely addition to this body of important work'' Yanis VaroufakisTime has always been political. Throughout history, how we use our time has been defined and controlled by the powerful, and today is no exception. But we can reclaim control, and in this book, the pioneering economist Guy Standing shows us how.The ancient Greeks organised time into five categories: work, labour, recreation, leisure and contemplation. Labour was onerous, whereas leisure was schole, and included participation in public life and lifelong education. Since the industrial revolution, our time has been shaped by capitalism, our jobs are supposed to provide all meaning in life, our time outside labour is considered simply ''time off'', and politicians prioritise jobs above all other aspects of a good life.Today, we are experiencing the age of chronic uncertainty. Mental illness is on the rise, some people are experiencing more time freedom while many others are having more and more of their time stolen from them, particularly the vulnerable and those in the precariat.But there is a way forward. We can create a new politics of time, one that liberates us and helps save the planet, through strengthening real leisure and working together through commoning. We can retake control of our time, but we must do it together.

Time is a mystery that does not cease to puzzle us. Philosophers, artists and poets have long explored its meaning while scientists have found that its structure is different from the simple intuition we have of it. From Boltzmann to quantum theory, from Einstein to loop quantum gravity, our understanding of time has been undergoing radical transformations. Time flows at a different speed in different places, the past and the future differ far less than we might think, and the very notion of the present evaporates in the vast universe. With his extraordinary charm and sense of wonder, bringing together science, art and philosophy, Carlo Rovelli unravels this mystery, inviting us to imagine a world where time is in us and we are not in time.

Yet the times are such . . . that even honest moderates are driven to radical remedies."-Robert Kuttner, New York TimesAs a correspondent for the French newspaper Le Monde, world-renowned economist Thomas Piketty has documented the rise and fall of Trump, the drama of Brexit, Emmanuel Macron's ascendance to the French presidency, the unfolding of a global pandemic, and much else besides, always from the perspective of his fight for a more equitable world. This collection brings together those articles and is prefaced by an extended introductory essay, in which Piketty argues that the time has come to support an inclusive and expansive conception of socialism as a counterweight against the hypercapitalism that defines our current economic ideology. These essays offer a first draft of history from one of the world's leading economists and public figures, detailing the struggle against inequalities and tax evasion, in favor of a federalist Europe and a globalization more respectful of work and the environment.

"This history will endure; not only because Sir Winston has written it, but also because of its own inherent virtues — its narrative power, its fine judgment of war and politics, of soldiers and statesmen, and even more because it reflects a tradition of what Englishmen in the hey-day of their empire thought and felt about their country''s past." The Daily Telegraph Spanning four volumes and many centuries of history, from Caesar’s invasion of Britain to the start of World War I, A History of the English-Speaking Peoples stands as one of Winston Churchill’s most magnificent literary works. Begun during Churchill’s ‘wilderness years’ when he was out of government, first published in 1956 after his leadership through the darkest days of World War II had cemented his place in history and completed when Churchill was in his 80s, it remains to this day a compelling and vivid history.

"This history will endure; not only because Sir Winston has written it, but also because of its own inherent virtues — its narrative power, its fine judgment of war and politics, of soldiers and statesmen, and even more because it reflects a tradition of what Englishmen in the hey-day of their empire thought and felt about their country''s past."

The Great Democracies is the fourth and final volume of Churchill’s history. Here, Churchill reaches the modern era. For Britain, this was the high Victorian era of Palmerston, Gladstone and Disraeli, an age of free trade and imperialism as the British spread to Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Meanwhile the fledgling republic in America endured the great crisis of the Civil War to take its first steps on the road to becoming the world superpower that endures to this day.

In the Summer of 1972, 14-year-old Judith Roberts took off for a bike ride within the vicinity of her Staffordshire home. Her body was discovered after a three-day manhunt, concealed from view in a thick privet having been brutally attacked. The community of Tamworth was rocked by the news of her death and an outcry for justice ensued. Within weeks of her murder, an impressionable and troubled soldier, based in the nearby barracks, 17-year-old Andrew Evans, walked into a police station and confessed to the killing. Relentlessly interviewed for hours on end without representation or an appropriate adult present, Andrew was swiftly charged with Judith's murder. Despite attempting to recount his statement and a legal defence at trial that defied the prosecution's arguments that Andrew Evans was guilty, a judge sentenced him to life behind bars. He was eventually acquitted in 1997 in what was, at the time, Britain's longest miscarriage of justice. While Andrew Evans fought for his freedom, another man drove up and down England undetected: Peter William Sutcliffe. Eventually proven capable of inflicting unimaginable horror at any given opportunity, an independent inquiry dubbed him likely responsible for more murders than the 13 he was convicted of and the seven others he attempted between 1975 and 1980. In _The Murder of Judith Roberts_, Chris Clark and Tanita Matthews examine evidence that concludes that Sutcliffe, whose violent criminal history dates back as far as 1969, was the real culprit responsible for Judith's murder. With never before-published dialogue from Andrew Evans' police interviews showing the grave miscarriage of justice, the case file of the five-decade cold case is examined under a new light.

Awaken the gifts and power of the 6th dimension hidden in your star ancestor DNA• Explains how our collective evolution from 3D to 5D is designed to include the spiritual frequencies of the Sixth Dimension • Offers meditations, tools, and insights to awaken dormant strands of DNA, activate light codes, and use our 6D gifts to change our world • Explores the light language of 6D that is found embedded in sacred geometry and sound, and how it connects us to Divine Mind As physical reality shifts from 3D to 5D, humans are evolving from the dense 3D/4D frequencies to the enlightening frequencies of 5D/6D. In this guide to incorporating 6D into our ascension process, Judith shows how to activate its power to manifest our highest potential, personally and collectively. As 3D/4D humans, 10 of our 12 strands of DNA are shut down. This book shows how, as we evolve into 5D/6D Divine humans, we reopen these strands and activate their embedded light codes. With meditations, spiritual tools, and insights to activate these light codes, Judith reveals how to identify old beliefs, wounds, and resistances and consciously process, release, and transform them. She explores the light language of 6D embedded in sacred geometry and sound, and how it connects us to Divine Mind. Activating more strands of DNA gives us access to higher dimensions and reclaim the wisdom of our Star ancestors and the civilizations they seeded in Atlantis, Lemuria, and ancient Egypt. Connecting with 6D frequencies allows us to manifest intentions and receive 6-dimensional gifts, such as connecting with our ka body, the energetic blueprint of our soul. This helps us connect to our star family for guidance, integrate the collective shadow, and activate our Starseed memories. As more of us do this, we shift the physical reality of our planet to usher in a new Golden Age. Guiding us through our collective ascension journey, Judith helps us unlock our potential, reconnect with divine wisdom, and create a more loving and vibrant reality.

Jak blízko můžeme být lidem, které milujeme? Fotograf sleduje svého adoptivního syna, se zájmem i odstupem zároveň, jeho žena ten pohled vidí, a tím by se to mohlo celé pokazit. Starý muž vzpomíná na cestu na ostrov Nantucket, poslední společnou výpravu s přáteli a do domu, který je zatím jen nahrubo postavený, slovy se kreslí do vzduchu. Žena vypráví o jednom dni u jezera, o jednom neštěstí a možná i o jedné velké lásce. Dítě poprvé v životě spálí věc, která pro něj byla dlouho důležitá. Postavy Judith Hermannové jsou někdy úplně bezbranné. O to intenzivnější jsou jejich setkání s jinými, milovanými nebo cizími lidmi. Tyto momenty nastávají bezděčně, bez vzruchu a pod povrchem vyvolávají existenciální tíhu. Judith Hermannová používá málo slov, ale mezi nimi se odehrávají neuchopitelné věci.

Mladou ženu požádají, ať vleze do krabice a nechá se rozřezat. Starý trik hodlá kouzelník nacvičit se svou novou asistentkou doma, kde vše sleduje jeho žena. Román Judith Hermannové Doma začíná právě touto téměř thrillerovou epizodou z minulosti hlavní postavy. Střih. Hrdinka nechává dosavadní život za sebou a stěhuje se do vlastního domu u moře. Píše krátké dopisy bývalému manželovi, navazuje opatrná přátelství, zkouší milostný poměr, přemýšlí, co dál. Vše plyne pomalu, hvězdná autorka této knihy je proslulá tím, že nikam nespěchá. Vypráví o ženě, která se v krajině na pobřeží po malých krůčcích stává někým jiným. Ohledává paměť a okamžik, v němž v životě člověka nastane předěl, kdy se ze starého rodí nové. Mezi slovy nechává jakoby mimochodem protékat něco neuchopitelného a vyzařuje přitom neodolatelnou pomalost, která mnohým z nás už dávno schází. Za román Doma byla Judith Hrmannová v roce 2021 nominována mj. na Německou knižní cenu nebo na Cenu Knižního veletrhu v Lipsku.
