Taking Control argues that neither side in the Brexit debate really understood the European Union or what was involved in reclaiming Britain s sovereignty. The EU is neither a supranational nanny state, nor an internationalist peace project. It is the means by which Europeâ ™s elites transformed their own states in order to rule the void where representative politics used to be. Leaving the EU is a necessary but not sufficient step towards closing the chasm between rulers and ruled. This book makes the democratic case for national sovereignty, arguing for a radical, forward-looking reconstitution of the British nation-state through strengthening representative democracy. It is essential for anyone who wonders why British politics is so dysfunctional and who wants to do better.

We are in the midst of a worldwide golden age of park creation, and featured here are powerfully telling examples at the forefront of this renaissance. Parks are essential to our well-being; this has never been clearer than it is today, and a recent surge of park development offers us much to celebrate. Parks of the 21st Century presents 52 parks in the U.S., Mexico, Canada, Europe, and China that have turned despoiled and polluted land (including former factories, railroads, and industrial waterfronts) into beneficial landscapes. Landscape architects have been referred to as “the first environmentalists,” and Parks of the 21st Century shows how parks are being designed as proactive, dynamic green spaces. The High Line in New York is an early example of how an obsolete railroad could be transformed. Opened in 2009, it now attracts nearly 8 million visitors a year. In addition to providing public open space, these renewed landscapes offer economic revitalization and large-scale environmental improvement. Among the parks featured in this book are designs by well-known professionals such as James Corner Field Operations, Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates, Kongjian Yu/Turenscape, and Catherine Mosbach.

Parks’ chronicle of small-town Maine anticipates his profound images of civil rights and inequalityIn January 1944, Gordon Parks (1912–2006) photographed Herklas Brown—the owner of a general store and Esso gas station in Somerville, Maine. Parks traveled to the state under the auspices of the Standard Oil Company New Jersey (SONJ) to record their contributions to the war effort and document the home front in this crucial period. His photographs chronicled oil and gas facilities and workers, small-town Esso gas station owners, as well as people whose lives depended on fuel and other SONJ products.Consistent with his work before and after, Parks prioritized getting to know his subjects as people, photographing Brown not only at his Esso station but also at home with his family. Despite the challenges he faced as a Black man traveling alone, Parks created a compelling documentary record of rural America. The images from this period offer crucial insight into the historic moment, as well as Parks’ early photographic practice directly before he began his tenure at Life magazine. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art, Herklas Brown and Maine, 1944 features more than 90 previously unpublished photographs.

Uncovering the partnership that saved America’s natural treasures America’s national parks are facing unprecedented challenges. With visitation pressures mounting and the National Park Service struggling to keep up, author and former park ranger Steve Kemp looks toward one exceptionally effective historical example of conservation philanthropy and park building—the collaboration between John D. Rockefeller Jr. and NPS legends Stephen Mather, Horace Albright, and Arno Cammerer.An Exaltation of Parks reveals the inspiring story of this collaboration, showing how the partnership transformed some of America #39;s most cherished national parks, including Acadia, Grand Teton, Great Smoky Mountains, Yellowstone, and Yosemite. It recounts Rockefeller’s lifelong dedication to conservation, digging into his own pockets and toiling as a volunteer to achieve his goals for converting private land into public use. Bringing to life the history and significance of America’s most magnificent landscapes, this volume is both a tribute to past conservation victories and a call to action for the future, emphasizing the need for continued vigilance to preserve these national treasures for generations to come.

Mýty o založení našich civilizací mají své kořeny v reálné historii. Gnostické texty starověkých Egypťanů nás učí, že Velká bohyně, Vesmírná matka, dlouho rozjímala nad nebeskou klenbou ve snaze zahlédnout božské světlo. Hnána svými nadějemi a sny opustila svůj idylický svět a sestoupila do nevyzpytatelných oblastí času a prostoru. Její cesta ji měla dovést ke zdroji věčnosti, z jehož tvůrčí síly chtěla čerpat inspiraci. Pád do vesmírné Propasti ji unášel vstříc vstříc osudu, který položil základy, na nichž dodnes stojí lidské civilizace. Na konci své vesmírné cesty se Matka-Bohyně zřítila do neúprosného, nepřátelského světa vzdáleného mnoho světelných let od její domoviny. V tomto svazku s podtitulem Kniha Nuréa: Sen o věčnosti nás Anton Parks provází fascinujícím objevováním skrytých a mocných sil Života. Jeho postřehy z hluboké studnice vesmírného poznání rozšiřují naše chápání vzniku vesmíru a naší sluneční soustavy ve světle událostí, jež se odehrály dávno před příchodem bytostí z nebes, o nichž se zmiňují mnohé lidské tradice.Kniha pro každého, kdo chce pochopit nezodpovězené záhady původu lidstva a okultních sil, které ovládají náš svět.

A Sunday Times Book of the Year #39;For anyone interested in Lee #39;s legacy, this is a roundhouse kick of a biography #39; – Sunday Times #39;At last, Bruce Lee has the powerful biography he deserves... It will thrill Lee #39;s fans and fascinate the unfamiliar #39; – Jonathan Eig, author of Ali: A Life and Luckiest Man: The Life and Death of Lou Gehrig #39;Meticulously researched #39; – Jimmy McDonough, author of Shakey: Neil Young’s Biography and Soul Survivor: A Biography of Al Green #39;You won #39;t find a better match for a biographer with his subject than Matthew Polly and Bruce Lee... A definitive biography, told with passion and punch #39; – Brian Jay Jones, author George Lucas: A Life and Jim Henson: The Biography. More than forty years after Bruce Lee’s sudden death at age 32, journalist and author Matthew Polly has written the definitive account of Lee’s life. It’s also one of the only accounts; incredibly, there has never been an authoritative biography of Lee. Following a decade of research that included conducting more than one hundred interviews with Lee’s family, friends, business associates and even the mistress in whose bed Lee died, Polly has constructed a complex, humane portrait of the icon. There are his early years as a child star in Hong Kong cinema; his actor father’s struggles with opium addiction and how that turned Bruce into a troublemaking teenager who was kicked out of high school and eventually sent to America to shape up; his beginnings as a martial arts teacher, eventually becoming personal instructor to movie stars like Steve McQueen; his struggles as an Asian-American actor in Hollywood and frustration seeing role after role he auditioned for go to white actors in eye makeup; his eventual triumph as a leading man; his challenges juggling a sky-rocketing career with his duties as a father and husband; and his shocking end that to this day is still shrouded in mystery.Polly breaks down the myth of Bruce Lee and argues that, contrary to popular belief, he was an ambitious actor who was obsessed with martial arts—not a great kung-fu master who just so happened to make a couple of movies. The book offers an honest look at an impressive yet flawed man whose personal story was even more entertaining and inspiring than any fictional role he played on-screen.Praise for Matthew Polly #39;Hypnotic...Tapped Out manages to humanize a sport once demonized as human cockfighting by deconstructing the stereotype of the martial-arts tough guy. #39; – New York Times #39;Tapped Out is a knockout for MMA fans, who will laugh at the intimate portraits Polly sketches of some of the sport #39;s most famous personalities. But it also works for those not familiar with the sport...You won #39;t be disappointed. #39; – OpposingViews.com #39;A delight to read. #39; – TheFightNerd.com #39;Polly #39;s self-deprecation in the painful learning process stands out as much as the witty prose. His delivery is Plimpton-esque. #39; – ESPN.com #39;Smoothly written . . . Polly has a good eye for characters. #39; – Publishers Weekly

How have the modern world, technology and our addiction to information changed who we are? What effect does it have on our relationships, minds and bodies? What can the simple act of sitting still teach us about ourselves? When Tim Parks fails to find a cause for his crippling chronic pain, he turns to meditation. This is, however, not your average self-help book or conversion story; instead, it is a refreshingly honest and profoundly moving introspection of one writer and his quest to overcome the inner battle between mind and body. A revelatory read with delightful cultural and literary references, Teach us to Sit Still by Booker-shortlisted author Tim Parks examines how the philosophy of sit still, relax and stop worrying can be profoundly life-altering.â ˜Teach us to Sit Still made me laugh; it made me cry; and it made me seriously think about taking up Vispassana meditationâ ™ The Times

Kompletní příběh legendárního Zlatého draka Jediná oficiální, autorizovaná biografie o nejvýjimečnějším mistrovi bojových umění, od jehož předčasné a tragické smrti uplynulo půl století. Legendární Bruce Lee vzpomíná vlastními slovy na milníky svého krátkého, ale mimořádného života. Vyprávění doplňují exkluzivní rodinné snímky i fotografie z natáčení slavných filmových či televizních děl. Na stránkách knihy získáte jedinečnou možnost poznat vrstevnatou osobnost skrytou za image mezinárodní filmové hvězdy a nepřekonatelného mistra bojových umění. Otevře se vám citlivě a zároveň výpravně pojatá fotografická esej sestavená Johnem Littlem, který zmapoval osudy Bruceho Lee od dětství po vrcholná léta filmové kariéry. Z pozice editora navíc Little dokázal poutavě postihnout kontrast mezi charismatickou veřejnou osobností a tichým otcem od rodiny. Texty, jejichž autorem je sám Bruce Lee, vycházejí z jeho záznamů, diářů, ale také z rozhovorů, především pak z dokumentu Bruce Lee: Vlastními slovy. Zasvěcenou předmluvou knihu opatřily manželka Shannon Lee a dcera Linda Lee Cadwell. „Dělal jsem to, po čem jsem vždy toužil. Přitom jsem vždy postupoval upřímně a podle svých nejlepších schopností. Víc se asi od života ani nedá chtít.“ – Bruce Lee
