To keby sme vedeli... pred svadbou! - Gary Chapman
Väčšina ľudí venuje neporovnateľne viac času príprave na svoje budúce povolanie, než príprave na manželstvo,“ hovorí Dr. Gary Chapman. Drvivá väčšina slobodných dospelých túži po manželskom vzťahu na celý život a nechcú, aby oni sami a prípadne ich deti museli prežiť bolestnú skúsenosť rozvodu. Tragédiou je, že mnoho z nich nemá ani najmenšiu predstavu, ako budovať takéto manželstvo. Aj to je dôvodom vysokej rozvodovosti. Známy autor a manželský poradca Gary Chapman dúfa, že sa mu svojou najnovšou knihou podarí aspoň trochu tento trend zmierniť. Má 35-ročnú skúsenosť s manželským poradenstvom a je presvedčený, že dôvodom rozvodov je aj nedostatočná príprava na manželstvo a neschopnosť a neochota naučiť sa vo vzťahu spolupracovať.

Hnev - Gary Chapman
Hnev zažívajú ľudia bez ohľadu na vek či spoločenské postavenie. Brian, vysokoškolák, sa hnevá na učiteľku, ktorá mu zapísala nedostatočnú. Liz, Brianova učiteľka, sa hnevá na svojho bývalého partnera, pretože neposiela načas výživné. Alex sa hnevá len tak všeobecne, pretože si nedokáže nájsť prácu a cíti sa spoločnosťou opomenutý. Viete, že hnev vám ničí život, ale neviete, čo s tým robiť. Život prináša veľa frustrácií. Aj keď možno nemávate záchvaty zúrivosti, je ľahké kvôli sklamaniu, zraneniu, odmietnutiu či zahanbeniu zatrpknúť a živiť v sebe hnev. Hnev je súčasťou života, ale nemusí váš život ovládať. Dá sa využiť aj pozitívne a dokonca vám môže pomôcť zmeniť životnú situáciu. Gary Chapman ponúka užitočné a často prekvapivé pohľady na to, prečo sa hneváme a čo s tým môžeme urobiť. V knihe nájdete skutočné príbehy a na nich autor vysvetľuje, ako: 1. lepšie pochopiť samého seba,2. prekonať hanbu, popieranie a zatrpknutosť,3. odlíšiť dobrý hnev od zlého,4. konštruktívne zvládať hnev a konflikt,5. urobiť pozitívne zmeny vo vašom živote,6. pomôcť iným zvládať hneva oveľa viac. Gary Chapman je autor, spíker a poradca. Je autorom série kníh Päť jazykov lásky, ktoré sa stali bestsellermi, a riaditeľom organizácie Marriage and Family Life Consultants, Inc.

5 jazykov lásky pre muža - Gary Chapman, Ross Campbell
V srdci muža sa ukrýva túžba zvládať všetko, čo sa mu zdá dôležité. Je skvelé byť užitočným v práci alebo na ihrisku, ale nič sa nevyrovná tomu, keď vám manželka povie: „Vďaka tebe sa cítim milovaná.“ Ak ste tieto slová od nej ešte nepočuli alebo máte pocit, že nie ste špičkovým hráčom v oblasti vzťahov, je táto kniha určená práve vám. Séria kníh Päť jazykov lásky je bestsellerom, pretože princípy, ktoré obsahuje, sú jednoduché, praktické a efektívne. V tejto knihe autori hovoria priamo k mužom o tom, čo to znamená naučiť sa hovoriť jazykom lásky ich manželiek. Kniha je plná humoru a užitočných ilustrácií, ktoré vám pomôžu zvládnuť umenie milovať. „Keď svojej žene vyjadríte lásku v jej primárnom jazyku lásky, je to ako keď vám pri golfe dokonale sadne úder.

5 jazykov lásky - Gary Chapman - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Niekto túži po pozornosti, iný po pochvale; pre niekoho sú veľmi dôležité darčeky, pre ďalšieho vymenená žiarovka či ožehlená košeľa a zas iný potrebuje fyzický dotyk. Audiokniha vám objasní každý z týchto jazykov, pomôže vám objaviť jazyk lásky vás a vášho partnera a dozviete sa aj, ako prakticky týmto jazykom hovoriť. Cieľom nie je vyjasniť zmätok ohľadne slov láska či milovať, ale zamerať sa na prejavy lásky, ktorá je nevyhnutná pre naše emocionálne zdravie. Gary Chapman hovorí, že jednou z príčin neporozumenia v manželstve je to, že každý z nás hovorí iným jazykom lásky. Počas svojej viac ako 30-ročnej poradenskej praxe identifikoval päť jazykov lásky: Slová uistenia, Pozornosť, Prijímanie darov, Skutky služby, Fyzický dotyk. Keď identifikujeme a naučíme sa hovoriť jazykom lásky nášho partnera, objavili sme kľúč k dlhotrvajúcemu, milujúcemu manželskému vzťahu. Láska sa po svadbe nemusí vypariť, no aby sme ju udržiavali živú, potrebujeme zapracovať na tom, aby sme sa naučili hovoriť jazykom lásky nášho partnera. Nemôžeme si vystačiť s naším vlastným jazykom, ak mu nerozumie. Ak chceme, aby rozumel prejavom našej lásky a cítil ju, musíme ju prejavovať v jeho jazyku.

Hněv - Gary Chapman
Gary Chapman zve v této knize čtenáře, aby se na svůj hněv podívali realisticky a zároveň s nadějí. Ne jako na hrozbu, ale jako na sílu, která si zaslouží pozornost. Skrze příběhy z Bible i ze života ukazuje, že hněv není nepřítel, ale přirozená součást lidské zkušenosti. Je to navíc styčný bod, který nás spojuje s Bohem. Hněv může ničit, ale také chránit, budovat a proměňovat. Jak tedy jeho energii nasměrovat tak, aby uzdravovala náš vnitřní svět a kultivovala prostor kolem nás?

Zuzana Štefečeková o knihe povedala: „Kniha mi veľa prezradila o sebe samej a o mojom vlastnom jazyku lásky. Prinútila ma tiež zamyslieť sa nad jazykom lásky iných ľudí v mojom okolí, a či s nimi „hovorím“ ich jazykom lásky – či tak napĺňam ich nádrž lásky, alebo nie. Zmenil sa môj pohľad na chápanie a vyjadrovanie lásky. Odporúčam všetkým, ktorí ľúbia a chcú byť ľúbení – manželom, zaľúbencom, ale aj ľuďom, ktorí sú single. Naučte sa hovoriť správnym jazykom lásky a zrazu sa začnú ľudia okolo vás usmievať a budú sa cítiť viac ľúbení a šťastní.“ Zuzana Štefečeková - najúspešnejšia slovenská športová strelkyňa (trap), majsterka sveta 2010 a dvojnásobná olympionička: Peking 2008 - striebro, Londýn 2012 - striebro.

The Baptist's Head Compendium - Alan Chapman, Duncan Barford
The intimate personal journals of two occultists practising western magick to achieve “The Great Work†(also known as “awakening†or “enlightenmentâ€).With its humour, honesty, and down-to-earth approach, extending beyond the cult following it gained after its original publication in the late noughties, The Baptist''s Head Compendium has proved itself a seminal text and indispensable guide to anyone suspicious of or disillusioned by magick purely as a tool for personal power or material gain.Sharing the details of their discoveries – and mistakes – in the process of making them, Chapman and Barford demonstrate how magick is a genuine spiritual tradition leading to enlightenment. They have their minds blown and the strangest experiences of their lives! By holding nothing back, but sharing all results and methods, the reader is equipped to embark on their own exploration of magick as a path to spiritual awakening.Originally published as a trilogy, but long since out-of-print, these books are now available for the first time in a single volume, revised and updated with new introductions by the authors.

The Revenge of Gaia - James Lovelock
James Lovelock''s bestselling The Revenge of Gaia: Why the Earth is Fighting Back - and How we can Still Save Humanity is a dire warning against the unchecked growth of civilization. ''Despite all our efforts to retreat sustainably, we may be unable to prevent a global decline into a chaotic world ruled by brutal warlords on a devastated Earth...'' For thousands of years, humans have exploited the planet without counting the cost. Now Gaia, the living Earth, is fighting back. As the polar icecaps shrink and the global temperature rises, we approach the point of no return. Sustainable development, Lovelock argues, is no longer possible, and the only open to us may be a ''sustainable retreat''. This is the one book you must read to find out what is happening, how bad it will get - and how we can survive.

The Vanishing Face of Gaia - James Lovelock
James Lovelock''s The Vanishing Face of Gaia: A Final Warning is a prophetic message for mankind from one of the most influential scientists of our age. James Lovelock''s Gaia theory, the idea that our planet is a living, self-regulating system, has transformed the way we see our planet and what is now happening to it. In this book he distils a lifetime''s wisdom and observation of the Earth to reveal the rate at which our climate is altering, how conventional ''green'' measures are not working, and how life as we know it is going to change forever.

The Game Changers: How Playing Games Changed the World and Can Change You Too - Clare Tim
Why is playing games a universal human instinct? Why did the same games evolve across wildly different civilisations? And how can those games make your life happier, healthier and more fulfilled? The history of board games is really the history of human civilisation. Through it we see how our species has learned to live with one another, make deals, take on different roles and manage the ups and downs of luck.In this entertaining and thought-provoking look at games through the ages, Tim Clare explores the legal highs of a good dice roll, the thrills of a predatory race game and the tactile pleasures of the games that age with us through our lives to discover how, through play, we become fully ourselves. Drawing on Roman anti-cheating devices, organised crime card syndicates and the combative domestic bonding ritual of Monopoly, The Game Changers explains why games are more popular now than ever, and how playing them helps us learn to be better losers, make smarter decisions and become more human.

On the Pleasures of Living in Gaza - Mohammed Omer Almoghayer
Beyond the headlines of destruction and despair, discover the untold story of Gaza''s humanity—its joys, resilience, and vibrant community spirit, as captured by a native son. Israel’s brutal assault on Gaza has plunged more than two million Palestinians into a ceaseless cycle of violence and deprivation. Despite the outrage that Israel’s aggression has fanned, two opposing tropes about those who inhabit the Strip endure. For the minority backing Israel’s actions, the Palestinians of Gaza are often seen as little more than terrorists. For many on the other side, they are perpetual victims, powerless and tragic. Each characterization dehumanizes Gaza’s people. In this book, Mohammed Omer Almoghayer, born and raised in southern Gaza, presents a necessary corrective: What the news reports have rarely shown are the ways in which, prior to Israel’s onslaught, the people of Gaza rose above their hardship to enjoy the simple pleasures of human existence. While in no way diminishing the horrors hurled at the Strip since October 7, or the prior suffering of those forced to live in what was effectively an open prison, Omer Almoghayer here tells that story. On the Pleasures of Living in Gaza takes the reader on a tour of a most ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Gaza Catastrophe - Gilbert Achcar
From a foremost expert on the Middle East, a searing indictment of the forces that led to the genocidal war on Gaza and its reverberations across the globe.The destruction rained on Gaza has been seen by many as a vengeful overreaction to the reckless Hamas-led attack on 7 October 2023. However, the new catastrophe befalling the Palestinian people is the continuation of a decades-long course in which Israeli politics, policies and military strategies have inexorably shifted to the right. Gaza was the final nail in the coffin of the Atlanticist “international liberal order†before Donald Trump’s return to the White House.The Gaza Catastrophe reckons with the lethal consequences and the significance of a war waged by an advanced military-industrial state – with full US participation and support from the West. Renowned political scientist Gilbert Achcar explores the dynamics of a complex historical process that culminated in the war on Gaza and wider conflict in the Middle East. He offers critical insights on the genocide’s regional and international ramifications, as well as radical critiques of Zionism, Hamas and other state and non-state actors.This vital volume is essential to understanding the root causes of the violence destabilising the entire region and the ...

Languages - Stephen P. Anderson
How many languages are there? What differentiates one language from another? Are new languages still being discovered? Why are so many languages disappearing? The diversity of languages today is varied, but it is steadily declining. In this Very Short Introduction, Stephen Anderson answers the above questions by looking at the science behind languages. Considering a wide range of different languages and linguistic examples, he demonstrates how languages are not uniformly distributed around the world; just as some places are more diverse than others in terms of plants and animal species, the same goes for the distribution of languages. Exploring the basis for linguistic classification and raising questions about how we identify a language, as well as considering signed languages as well as spoken, Anderson examines the wider social issues of losing languages, and their impact in terms of the endangerment of cultures and peoples. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Israel and the Gaza Strip since 1967 - Trude Strand
Following the 1967 Arab-Israeli War, Israeli decision-makers opted to conquer, colonise, occupy and dominate the Gaza Strip. Why was this sliver of land - home and refuge to around 400,000 Palestinians - so important to Israel? Why did it come to play a major role in Israeli-Palestinian affairs, Israeli domestic and foreign policy, and – increasingly – Israel’s international relations? This book answers these questions.Placing the Gaza Strip within the context of Zionist ideology and practice and the wider Question of Palestine, the book charts Israel’s Gaza policy from early attempts to put the area under Israeli rule before 1967, and up until the military campaign against Gaza beginning in 2023.Based largely on Israeli archival material, official Israeli records , leaked US, Israeli and Palestinian documents, and international media reports, each chapter interrogates a pivotal moment in Israeli policymaking, its outcome, implementation and implications . While historical accounts and political commentary often suggest Israel has acted in an ad-hoc way based on military developments on the ground, unaware of the consequences of its actions, or the advantages and disadvantages of its policies, the book reveals that this is far from the case.
