Immerse yourself in the rich shades and textures of Tiziano Vecellio (c. 1490–1576), commonly known as Titian, and the figurehead of 16th-century Venetian painting. With his bold approach to form and startling, opulent colors, Titian worked with a number of prestigious commissions and left behind an astonishing repertoire of portraits, mythological scenes, altarpieces, and landscapes that remains one of the most important legacies of Renaissance art. This dependable artist introduction traces Titian’s complete career and its trailblazing influence on successive generations of artists, from Diego Velázquez to van Dyck. From the rippling sensuality of Venus of Urbino (c. 1538) to the airborne dynamism of Bacchus and Ariadne (1520–1523), all the major works are here, charting the artist’s stylistic experimentation over time as well as his consistent and unique ability to work across genres and to bring a defining new level of emotional and spiritual aspect to his subjects.

Before they became two of America’s most iconic pop artists, Andy Warhol and Robert Indiana were young aspiring creatives, living in New York. There, they met and befriended William John Kennedy, who would take some of the first photographs of these artists in their career.

After establishing a friendship with Robert Indiana and taking some of the first, important close-up images of him in his studio, Kennedy went on to work in a similarly creative way with Warhol.These striking images of the young Warhol and Indiana were lost for nearly 50 years before being rediscovered. They were immediately recognised as important documents by the Warhol Museum and by Robert Indiana, and presented in the Before they were Famous exhibition, which travelled to London and New York.

From Paul Kennedy, author of The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers, one of the most acclaimed history books of recent decades, Engineers of Victory is a new account of how the tide was turned against the Nazis by the Allies in the Second World War. In January 1943 Churchill and Roosevelt met in Casablanca to review the Allies'' war aims. To achieve unconditional surrender they had to overcome some formidable hurdles, from winning air command to ''hopping'' across the Pacific islands. Eighteen months later, they had done what seemed impossible.Here Paul Kennedy reveals the role of the problem-solvers and middle-men who made it happen - like Major-General Perry Hobart, who invented the ''funny tanks'' which flattened the D-Day beaches; or Captain ''Johnny'' Walker, who worked out how to sink U-boats with a ''creeping barrage''.

After years of trying different therapies for his crippling anxiety without success, Dr Russell Kennedy had an epiphany: anxiety does not start in the brain. Anxiety starts in the body, where trauma is stored and physical and emotional perception begin. Alarm bells originating in the body are what trigger those anxious thoughts that we call anxiety, and Dr Kennedy realised that true healing starts only when we learn not to conflate the two.He understood that existing therapies focused only on the mind would never get to the root of the problem – at best, they could help manage symptoms, but they’d never truly heal anxiety. Now fully revised and updated, with new material including the Anxiety Toolkit, The Anxiety Prescription blends Dr Kennedy's personal story with medical science, neuroscience and developmental psychology. When you learn how to sever the connection between the somatic alarm and the flood of anxious thoughts – you can begin to heal old trauma and gain back a sense of control.The Anxiety Prescription offers a toolkit of techniques for our thinking minds, and our feeling bodies – changing not just our mindset, but our 'body-set'.

McKeever was made an AUB Honorary Fellow in 2002 and launched TheGallery’s text + work programme in 2004.The exhibition was McKeever’s first foray into installation art, seeking to explore the relationships between his photo/painted panels and the physical spaces in which they are presented. For this, along with a team of helpers and student volunteers, he built a structure with 3 x 2-inch stud walling timbers and sheets of plasterboard comprising myriad walls, passageways, openings, ledges and platforms, challenging the conventional white cube gallery space and bringing the viewer’s body into heightened dialogue with both their surroundings and the artworks. The works, a series of the acclaimed artist’s abstract paintings combined with ostensibly abstract photographs, pose formal and theoretical questions about perception, ...

Wildly popular parenting expert Dr Becky Kennedy shares her groundbreaking approach to raising kids in a way that feels good. Over the past several years, Dr Becky Kennedy—known to her followers as ‘Dr Becky’—has been sparking a parenting revolution. Millions of parents, tired of following advice that either doesn’t work or simply doesn’t feel good, have embraced Dr Becky’s empowering and effective approach, a model that prioritises connecting with our kids over correcting them.From reward charts to time-outs, many popular parenting approaches are based on shaping behaviour, not raising humans.

"…činů, kvůli nimž jsem trpěl, ani zdaleka nelituji. Všechny bych je vykonal znovu, pokud by to bylo zapotřebí, i za cenu desateronásobného hanobení, nepřízně a ztráty funkce," prohlásil John Quincy Adams a s jeho slovy by se pravděpodobně ztotožnilo i dalších sedm amerických senátorů, jejichž příběhy líčí John Fitzgerald Kennedy ve svazku Portréty odvahy. Ať už si vydobyli věhlas, jako například Daniel Webster, nebo byli a jsou víceméně neznámými postavami, jako například Edmund G. Ross, projevili všichni tito politici v kritické chvíli odvahu jít proti proudu a nehledět na stranické zájmy a přání voličů. K jejich činům je přimělo vlastní přesvědčení, svědomí, věrnost ústavě a v neposlední řadě také nutkání zachovat se spravedlivě a prospět vlasti. Nejenže si za své jednání vysloužili tvrdou kritiku, ale v mnoha případech si jím navždy zničili kariéru a někdy i osobní život. Kennedy sestavil příběhy svých odvážných předchůdců na základě důkladného studia historických pramenů, avšak jeho styl má daleko do suché faktografie. Vše naopak líčí velice poutavě, se smyslem pro napětí a dramatičnost. Kniha Portréty odvahy, která výrazně přispěla k utváření moderního politického myšlení, tak zůstává podnětnou a přitažlivou četbou i více než padesát let po svém prvním vydání.
