Robbie Robertson s singular contributions to popular music have made him one of the most beloved songwriters and guitarists of his time. With songs like â ˜The Weightâ ™, â ˜The Night They Drove Old Dixie Downâ ™ and â ˜Up on Cripple Creekâ ™, he and his partners in the Band fashioned a music that has endured for decades, influencing countless musicians.In this captivating memoir, written over five years of reflection, Robbie employs his unique storyteller s voice to weave together the journey that led him to some of the most pivotal events in music history. He recounts the adventures of his half-Jewish, half-Mohawk upbringing on the Six Nations Indian Reserve and on the gritty streets of Toronto; his odyssey at sixteen to the Mississippi Delta, the fountainhead of American music; the wild, early years on the road with rockabilly legend Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks; his unexpected ties to the Cosa Nostra underworld; the gripping trial-by-fire of going electric with Bob Dylan on his 1966 world tour and their ensuing celebrated collaborations; the formation of the Band and the forging of their unique sound, culminating with historyâ ™s most famous farewell concert, brought to life for all time in Martin Scorseseâ ™s great movie The Last Waltz. This is the story of a time and place - the moment when rock n roll became life, when legends like Buddy Holly and Bo Diddley crisscrossed the circuit of clubs and roadhouses from Texas to Toronto, when the Beatles, Hendrix, the Stones and Warhol moved through the same streets and hotel rooms. Itâ ™s the story of exciting change as the world tumbled through the 60s and early 70s and a generation came of age, built on music, love and freedom. Above all, itâ ™s the moving story of the profound friendship among five young men who together created a new kind of popular music. Testimony is Robbie Robertsonâ ™s story, lyrical and true, as only he could tell it.

The rock legend tells the story of his wild ride with Martin Scorsese â “ as friends, adventure-seekers, and boundary-pushing collaborators â “ with all the heart of his New York Times bestselling memoir Testimony Intense, exciting, delirious THE TIMES Thrilling, beautiful, honest TELEGRAPH A wild ride ROLLING STONE---For four decades, Robbie Robertson produced music for Martin Scorsese s films, a relationship that began when Robertson convinced Scorsese to direct The Last Waltz, the iconic film of the Band s farewell performance at the Winterland Ballroom on Thanksgiving 1976. The closing of the Band s story with that landmark concert thrust Robertson into a new and uncertain world. With his relationship with his bandmates deteriorating and his marriage collapsing, Robertson arrived on Scorseseâ ™s Beverly Hills doorstep only to find his friend in similar straits. Before the night was out, Scorsese had invited him to move in. Both men, already culture-transforming stars before the age of thirty-five, stood at a creative precipice, searching for the beginning of a new phase of life and work. As their friendship deepened into a career-altering collaboration, their shared journey would take them around the world and down the rabbit hole of American culture in the long hangover of the seventies. Buffeted on either side by temptation and paranoia, veering closer to self-destruction than either wanted to admit, together they had devoted themselves to a partnership defined by equal parts admiration and ambition. With a cast of characters featuring Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel, Federico Fellini, Sophia Loren, Sam Fuller, Liza Minelli, Tuesday Weld, and many more, Insomnia is an intimate portrait of a remarkable creative friendship between two titans of American arts, one that would explore the outer limits of excess and experience before returning to tell the tale.

This novel biography brings Marcus Aurelius (121–180 CE) to life for a new generation of readers by exploring the emperor’s fascinating psychological journey. Donald J. Robertson examines Marcus’s relationships with key figures in his life, such as his mother, Domitia Lucilla, and the emperor Hadrian, as well as his Stoic tutors. He draws extensively on Marcus’s own Meditations and correspondence, and he examines the emperor’s actions as detailed in the Augustan History and other ancient texts.Marcus Aurelius struggled to reconcile his philosophy and moral values with the political pressures he faced as emperor at the height of Roman power.Robertson examines Marcus’s attitude toward slavery and the moral dilemma posed by capturing enemies in warfare; his attitude toward women; the role of Stoicism in shaping his response to the threat of civil war; the treatment of Christians under his rule; and the naming of his notorious son Commodus as his successor. Throughout, the Meditations is used to shed light on the mind of the emperor—his character, values, and motives—as Robertson skillfully weaves together Marcus’s inner journey as a philosopher with the outer events of his life as a Roman emperor.

Renewed my faith in the human power to resist, imagine and make new, better worlds.â ™ Susanna Crossman, author of Home Is Where We StartHow do the disillusioned, the forgotten, and the persecuted not merely hold on to life but expand its possibilities and preserve its beauty? What, in other words, does utopia look like in black?These questions animate Aaron Robertsonâ ™s exploration of Black Americansâ ™ efforts to remake the conditions of their lives. Writing in the tradition of Saidiya Hartman and Ta-Nehisi Coates, Robertson makes his way from his ancestral hometown of Promise Land, Tennessee, to Detroit â “ the city where he was born, and where one of the countryâ ™s most remarkable Black utopian experiments got its start. Founded by the brilliant preacher Albert Cleage Jr., the Shrine of the Black Madonna combined Afrocentric Christian practice with radical social projects. Central to this endeavour was the Shrineâ ™s chancel mural of a Black Virgin and child, the icon of a nationwide liberation movement that would come to be known as Black Christian Nationalism.Alongside the Shrineâ ™s story, Robertson reflects on a diverse array of Black utopian visions, from the Reconstruction era through the countercultural fervour of the 1960s and 1970s and into the present day. By doing so, Robertson showcases the enduring quest of collectives and individuals for a world beyond the constraints of systemic racism.The Black Utopians is the story of a movement and of a world still in the making â “ one that points the way toward radical alternatives for the future.A TIME Book of the YearA New York Times Book of the Year

Jak můžeme aplikovat učení největšího antického filozofa v moderním životě?Sokrates je klíčovým athénským filozofem, zdrojem celé západní filozofické tradice a kmotrem stoiků. Celý život učil praktickou filozofii obyčejné lidi v ulicích Athén, přesto je dnes jen málo lidí obeznámeno s moudrostí, kterou nám může nabídnout.Kniha Myslet jako Sokrates vás přístupným a poučným způsobem provede životem jednoho z největších myslitelů v dějinách. Zároveň je první knihou, která se zaměřuje na aplikaci jeho myšlenek do našeho každodenního života. Autor Donald J. Robertson přenáší čtenáře do starověkých Athén a zkušeně splétá poutavé vyprávění o filozofovi, který se vyhýbal hmotným požitkům a stál si za svým přesvědčením i tváří v tvář kontroverzím s nezlomností, což nakonec vyústilo v jeho popravu.Kniha Myslet jako Sokrates zdůrazňuje trvalou hodnotu sokratovské metody pro moderní život. Robertson jako praktikující kognitivně-behaviorální psychoterapeut také využívá svých odborných znalostí, aby odhalil mnoho paralel mezi koncepty a technikami moderní psychologie a Sokratovou filozofií a ukázal, jak nás jeho filozofické postřehy mohou vést a být přínosné i v současnosti.

What makes a winner? Why do some succeed both in life and in business, and others fail? The â ˜winner effectâ ™ is a term used in biology to describe how an animal that has won a few fights against weak opponents is much more likely to win later bouts against stronger contenders. As Ian Robertson reveals, it applies to humans, too. Success changes the chemistry of the brain, making you more focused, smarter, more confident and more aggressive. And the more you win, the more you will go on to win. But the downside is that winning can become physically addictive.By understanding what the mental and physical changes are that take place in the brain of a â ˜winnerâ ™, how they happen, and why they affect some people more than others, Robertson explains what makes a winner or a loser â “ and how we can use the answers to these questions to understand better the behaviour of our business colleagues, employees, family and friends.

Mnoho císařů, kteří vládli ve své době největší známé říši, bylo zapomenuto. Na jejich busty v příšeří tmavých depozitářů muzeí sedá prach. Jeden z nich nás ale svými myšlenkami dokáže inspirovat i po dvou tisících letech. Marcus Aurelius. Později často představovaný jako nemocný nebo bledý, který ale přežil nejen zášť na římském dvoře, ale také smrt svých dětí, mnohaletý pobyt kdesi na severu v Panonii mezi divokými barbarskými kmeny nebo zradu svého nejbližšího přítele. Jak to dokázal, zachovat se vždy moudře a rozvážně? Co mu pomáhalo v těžkých situacích? Co se mu asi honilo v hlavě? Je to stoický přístup k věcem. Římský císař Marcus Aurelius byl zároveň posledním známým stoickým filosofem antického světa. Hovory k sobě, jeho osobní deník, jsou čtené dodnes jako jedno z klasických děl seberozvojové a duchovní literatury všech dob. Donald Robertson ve své knize umně propojuje Markův život s jeho filosofií, čímž vytváří přesvědčivou moderní příručku stoické moudrosti, kterou se po celá staletí řídil bezpočet jednotlivců na své cestě za dosažením většího naplnění a emoční odolnosti.

In Crimes Against Humanity, Geoffrey Robertson QC explains why we must hold political and military leaders accountable for genocide, torture and mass murder. He shows how human rights standards can be enforced against cruel governments, armies and multi-national corporations. This seminal work contains a critical perspective on events such as the invasion of Iraq, the abuses at Abu Ghraib, the killings in Darfur, the death of Milosevic and the trial of Saddam Hussein. Cautiously optimistic about ending impunity, but unsparingly critical of diplomats, politicians, Bush lawyers and others who evade international rules, this book will provide further guidance to a movement which aims to make justice predominant in world affairs.

In Messy Maths: A Playful, Outdoor Approach for Early Years, Juliet Robertson offers a rich resource of ideas that will inspire you to tap into the endless supply of patterns, textures, colours and quantities of the outdoors and deepen children s understanding of maths through hands-on experience. Juliet believes being outside makes maths real. In the classroom environment, maths can seem disconnected from everyday reality but real maths is really messy. Lots of outdoor play and engaging activity along the way is a must, as being outside enables connections to be made between the hands, heart and head, and lays the foundations for more complex work as children grow, develop and learn. Following on from the success of Dirty Teaching (ISBN 978-178135107-9), Messy Maths reimagines the outdoor space through a mathematical lens providing a treasure trove of suggestions that will empower you to blend outdoor learning into your teaching practice. It is not a how to guide, but rather an easy-to-use reference book replete with ready-to-use games and open-ended ideas designed to help children become confident and skilled in thinking about, using and exploring abstract mathematical concepts as they play outside. Many of these ideas and activities are also beautifully displayed in full-colour photographs throughout the book, making it even easier to jump straight into outstanding outdoor learning opportunities. Topics covered include: general advice; exploring numbers; number functions and fractions; money; measurement; time; pattern; shape and symmetry; position, direction and movement; data handling; routines; and the mathematical garden. Each chapter features a section on topic-specific vocabulary and expressions to help you integrate terminology into each area of study, while suggestions for embedding maths into routines are also provided to assist in the development of creative, progressive and flexible approaches to everyday situations. Messy Maths is suitable for early years educators (of ages 3 to 6) who want to shake up their usual classroom practice and make the most of any outdoor space whether this be a nursery, playgroup, child-minder s back garden or a nature kindergarten as a context for maths. Messy Maths has been named the Gold Winner in the Mathematics category of the Nursery World Equipment Resources Awards 2019. Messy Maths has been named the Silver Winner in the Outdoor Play category and Professional Books (and authors) category of the Nursery World Equipment Resources Awards 2019.

In Inside Stories, Hilary Robertson reveals a multitude of ways to curate and arrange those objects and possessions that make up the stuff of life, from treasured artworks and decorative accessories to everyday objects such as hats, baskets and bicycles.In the first chapter, How to Arrange your Stuff, Hilary considers four different approaches to creating arrangements – intuitive, narrative, practical and curatorial—and shows how each one can be achieved. She considers the variety of display locations available within the home—walls, mantelpieces, windowsills, chests of drawers, tabletops—and suggests how to make the most of them with decorative vignettes. Next, in Stories Told by Real Homes, Hilary casts her stylist’s eye over interiors that fall into five different styles—Neatnik, Bohemian, Naturalist, Sculpture Vulture, and Noble Salvage. As she reveals, some people are magpies—they love stuff; finding, collecting, and displaying it—while their opposite, the minimalists, are on a mission to contain or tame it. The ideas in this book will appeal to magpies, minimalists, and everyone in between.

This book is about the fundamentals of light, shadow and reflectivity; the focus is firmly on helping to improve visual understanding of the world around and on techniques for representing that world.Rendering is the next step after drawing to communicate ideas more clearly. Building on what Scott Robertson and Thomas Bertling wrote about in How To Draw: Drawing and Sketching Objects and Environments from Your Imagination, this book shares everything the two experts know about how to render light, shadow and reflective surfaces.This book is divided into two major sections: the first explains the physics of light and shadow. One will learn how to construct proper shadows in perspective and how to apply the correct values to those surfaces. The second section focuses on the physics of reflectivity and how to render a wide range of materials utilizing this knowledge.Throughout the book, two icons appear that indicate either “observation” or “action.” This means the page or section is about observing reality or taking action by applying the knowledge and following the steps in creating your own work.Similar to our previous book, How To Draw, this book contains links to free online rendering tutorials that can be accessed via the URL list or through the H2Re app.
