Kniha - autor Shari Lapena, 344 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Fast-paced and addictive, THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR announces a major new talent in thriller writing. Your neighbour told you that she didn't want your baby at the dinner party. Your husband said it would be fine. After all, you only live next door.

Is it your lying, cheating ex-husband?Your sadistic high school gym teacher?Your boss who loves to humiliate people in meetings?The colleague who stole your idea and passed it off as her own?In the pages of The Sociopath Next Door, you will realize that your ex was not just misunderstood. He's a sociopath. And your boss, teacher, and colleague? They may be sociopaths too.We are accustomed to think of sociopaths as violent criminals, but in The Sociopath Next Door, Harvard psychologist Martha Stout reveals that a shocking 4 percent of ordinary people- 1 in 25 - has an often undetected mental disorder, the chief symptom of which is that that person possesses no conscience. He or she has no ability whatsoever to feel shame, guilt, or remorse. One in 25 everyday people, therefore, is secretly a sociopath. They could be your colleague, your neighbour, even family. And they can do literally anything at all and feel absolutely no guilt.How do we recognize the remorseless? One of their chief characteristics is a kind of glow or charisma that makes sociopaths more charming or interesting than the other people around them. They're more spontaneous, more intense, more complex, or even sexier than everyone else, making them tricky to identify and leaving us easily seduced. Fundamentally, sociopaths are different because they cannot love. Sociopaths learn early on to show sham emotion, but underneath they are indifferent to others' suffering. They live to dominate and thrill to win.The fact is, we all almost certainly know at least one or more sociopaths already. Part of the urgency in reading The Sociopath Next Door is the moment when we suddenly recognize that someone we know - someone we worked for, or were involved with, or voted for - is a sociopath. But what do we do with that knowledge? To arm us against the sociopath, Dr Stout teaches us to question authority, suspect flattery, and beware the pity play. Above all, she writes, when a sociopath is beckoning, do not join the game.It is the ruthless versus the rest of us, and The Sociopath Next Door will show you how to recognize and defeat the devil you know.

Winner of the Giles St Aubyn Award 2021Not all viruses are out to get us - in fact, the viruses that do us harm are vastly outnumbered by viruses that can actually save lives.At every moment, within your body and all around you, trillions of microscopic combatants are fighting an invisible war. Countless times per second, 'good' viruses known as phages are infecting and destroying bacteria. These phages are the most abundant life form on the planet and have an incredible power to heal rather than harm.So why have most of us never even heard of them?The Good Virus reveals how personalities, power and politics have repeatedly crashed together to hinder our understanding of these weird and wonderful life forms. We explore why Stalin's Soviet Union embraced using phages to fight disease but the rest of the world shunned the idea. We find out why scientists only recently realised phages are central to all ecosystems on Earth.And we meet the often eccentric phage heroes who have shaped the strange history of this field and are unlocking its exciting future.Faced with the threat of antibiotic-resistance, we need phages now more than ever. The Good Virus celebrates what phages could do for us and our planet if they are at last given the attention they deserve.

In an age when foods come highly processed, and ever more people suffer from food allergies and intolerances, interest in local and organic foods and healthful eating is skyrocketing. This is where Living off the Land in West Ireland comes in. The Connemara region of Ireland is one of the country s most picturesque areas. Oscar Wilde once called it a savage beauty. With its rugged hills, post-card-pretty heaths and moors, and rocky western coastline, the region boasts a variety of striking vistas. Here it is still possible to live in harmony with nature, tapping the natural resources and native produce that the land offers up. Living off the Land in West Ireland takes you to Screebe House, an historic manor in western Ireland famous for its hospitality, comfort, and exquisite cuisine. The book shows how you can use local products to create outstanding dishes with a modicum of cooking skill, along with classics like a full Irish breakfast and afternoon scones. Recipes and special sections teach you how to prepare and cook fish, shellfish, and lamb chops and introduce you to Irish cheese. Breathtaking landscape photography from the region rounds out the book perfectly and sweeps you away on the trip of a lifetime to the western coast of Ireland.
