Kniha - autor Petra Smeltzer, 216 stran, česky, pevná s přebalem lesklá V této knize se seznámíte nejen se základy velmi úspěšné SweatNGlow jógy, ale také s fascinujícím příběhem její autorky, která se narodila a mládí prožila v moravské Kroměříži v posledních letech existence socialistického Československa. Po studiích ekonomie v Praze a získávání zkušeností ve světě modelingu vycestovala do Spojených států a vydala se na dlouhou cestu za vlastní verzí amerického snu. Její příběh vás zavede z prestižní právnické firmy do poradního sboru prezidenta Baracka Obamy, kde náročnou práci zvládala také díky józe. Jóga ji posléze odvedla z Bílého domu k nejednoduché spolupráci se zakladatelem proslulé Bikram jógy, aby se nakonec v moderní, aktuální podobě SweatNGlow jógy stala její profesí i posláním. Nyní mají i čeští čtenáři jedinečnou příležitost spolu s autorkou nahlédnout do zákulisí života celé řady osobností z politiky, kultury – a samozřejmě jógy.

Kniha - autor Nassim Nicholas Taleb, 366 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná THE BLACK SWAN is a concept that will change the way you look at the world. Black Swans underlie almost everything, from the rise of religions, to events in our own lives. A Black Swan is a highly improbable event with three principle characteristics: it is unpredictable; it carries a massive impact; and, after the fact, we concoct an explanation that makes it appear less random and more predictable than it was. The astonishing success of Google was a black swan; so was 9/11. Why do we always ignore the phenomenon of Black Swans until after they occur? As Taleb reveals, we are hard-wired not to truly estimate risk, too vulnerable to the impulse to simplify and not open enough to rewarding those who can imagine the 'impossible'. In this revelatory book, Taleb explains everything we know about what we don't know, and shows us how to face the world.
