Twenty-Five Years of the Life Review - Robert Disch
In this thought-provoking book, professionals in the field of aging examine the history and concept of the life review. The life review--a theory about the nature of the life cycle first presented in 1962--has become a foundation for program development with the elderly. This unique analysis of the life review goes beyond the early formulation both in theory and practice. Critics of the life review suggest ways in which the theory can be modified and expanded and offer several unique methods of creatively adapting these criticisms and changes to practical purposes. Proponents of the life review--while emphasizing that reminiscence is not a panacea--proclaim its historical, educational, and therapeutic value.

Twenty Five Thousand Days of Memories - Martin Rajniš, Magdalena Šebestová
Architekt, profesor a autor mnoha odborných publikací M. Rajniš se rozhodl sepsat vzpomínky ze svého života plného cestování, netradičních zvratů, úspěchů i pádů. Jako buřič a provokatér, který si celý život razí svojí cestu, chce čtenáři ukázat, že i člověk, nýmand, kterého málem strčili do pomocné školy, může žít bezvadný život. "Přál bych si, aby se čtenář při mým vyprávění odvázal, začal mluvit slangem a vychutnal si krásně vyslovený český nadávky, který se skví jako pralinka na dortu." Prof. Ing. arch. Martin Rajniš (* 16. května 1944, Praha) je český architekt a urbanista, spoluzakladatel České komory architektů, několika architektonických kanceláří a zakladatel ateliéru Huť Architektury. Jako pedagog působil na VŠUP v Praze a na Technické univerzitě v Liberci. Je známý především jako autor nové Poštovny na Sněžce nebo Majáku a muzea Járy Cimrmana v Jizerských horách. Věnuje se experimentální architektuře a vztahu architektury k přírodě a k lidské společnosti. Martin Rajniš o knize… Skutečně mám dobrou paměť a už řadu let mě připadalo potřebný podělit se o příběhy, který jsem za posledních 70 let zažil. Osud mi do cesty přihrál milý stvoření, Magdu (Křížkovou) Šebestovou, která mý košatý zhruba, 100 hodinový vyprávění převedla do 900 stran textu, z kterejch posléze vznikl na 120 stranách týhle knihy koncentrovanej elixír toho, podle nás, nejlepšího. Myslím, že čtenáře budou bavit i krásný fotky, mimo jiný i z mejch četnejch exotických cest, kterých tam bude víc než stovka. Dílo se jmenuje 25 344 dnů vzpomínek, což vystihuje 71 let mého života, během něhož jsem toho zažil skutečně hodně - dětství ve staré Praze s nejrůznějšími výchovnými experimenty svého otce, časy chudoby a vzdoru proti bolševikovi, byl jsem dvanáctkrát v kriminále. Strávil jsem čtyři roky na moři, přeplul na malé lodi s jednou krásnou holkou Atlantik. Projezdil jsem stovky tisíc kilometrů po pouštích, divočinách, pralesech, projel jsem horní toky Amazonky, byl jsem v nejzapadlejších koutech Nové Guiney. Ale zároveň jsem řídil jako architekt velké ateliéry a rukama mi prošlo ve stavebních nákladech skoro 14 miliard korun. Zažil jsem Paříž coby bezdomovec i jako nositel světové ceny za architekturu… Spolupráce s Magdou (Křížkovou) Šebestovou Magdu jsem poznal koncem sedmdesátých let, když jsme v době třeskutýho bolševizmu dělali pavilon na výstavu do Kanady - já jako mladej architekt a ona jako hosteska. Pamatoval jsem si ji ještě z doby, kdy jako malá holka zpívala s Jiřím Suchým v Semaforu. Potom jsme se dlouhý roky neviděli a až při rozhovoru pro Xantypu kterej se mnou přišla udělat,jsem si uvědomil, jak se umí ptát, jak se umí bezvadně tvářit a hlavně jak skvěle umí psát… tak jsem jí nabídl, že bychom spolu mohli zkusit to moje vzpomínání napsat a ona, zaplať pánbůh, kývla... 25000 Twenty Five Thousand Days of Memories Prof. Ing. arch. Martin Rajniš (* 16 May 1944, Prague) is a Czech architect and urban designer, co-founder of the Czech Chamber of Architects and several architectural studios, and personal founder of the atelier Architecture Guild. He has taught at the School of Applied Arts in Prague and the Technical University in Liberec. Among his best-known works are the new Post Office atop Mt. Sněžka or the Jára Cimrman Lighthouse and Museum in the Jizera Mountains. His main interests are experimental architecture and the relation between architecture and nature or human societies. Martin Rajniš about the book: "… Really, I have a good memory and for many years now I've felt a need to share the stories that I've experience over the past 70 years. Fate brought across my path one lovely being, Magda (Křížková) Šebestová, who transferred my digressive 100 or so hours of storytelling into 900 pages of text, out of which she then formed into the 120 pages of this book a concentrated elixir of what, in our eyes, was the best.

Five Bad Deeds - Caz Frear
‘Frear has a good ear for darkly comic touches, which combines with her pacey plot for an engrossing read’ Daily Mail FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SWEET LITTLE LIES COMES A DARK AND TWISTY THRILLER ABOUT SECRETS, LIES AND REVENGE. ONE WOMAN'S SECRETTWO SIDES TO EVERY STORYTHREE DEADLY BETRAYALSFOUR POTENTIAL SUSPECTSFIVE BAD DEEDS ‘A big high five for Caz Frear’s Five Bad Deeds - a page-gripping, nail-gnawing good read’ Cara Hunter 'A deliciously dark story of how one woman’s life of seemingly domestic bliss can unravel faster than she ever thought possible. I predict it will be one of the big hits of 2024 - I loved it' Nikki Smith 'Deliciously waspish, twisty, and relatable' Claire McGowanEllen Walsh has done something very, very bad. If only she knew what it was . . . Teacher, mother, wife, and all-around good citizen Ellen is juggling non-stop commitments, from raising a teen and two toddlers to job-hunting, to finally renovating her dream home, the Meadowhouse. Amidst the chaos, an ominous note arrives in the mail declaring:SOONER OR LATER EVERYONE SITS DOWN TO A BANQUET OF CONSEQUENCES. Why would someone send her this note? Ellen has no clue. She's no angel - a white lie here and there, an occasional sharp tongue - but nothing to incur the wrath of an anonymous enemy. Everyone around Ellen - her husband, her teenage daughter, her sister, her best friend, her neighbours - can guess why, though. They all know from bitter experience that while Ellen’s intentions are always good, this ultimately counts for very little when you’ve (unintentionally?) blown up someone’s life. Could the five bad deeds that come to haunt Ellen explain why things have gone so horribly wrong?As she races to discover who’s set on destroying her life, Ellen receives more anonymous messages, each one more threatening than the last . . . and each hitting closer and closer to home and everything she cherishes.Praise for Five Bad Deeds: ‘Brilliant . . . so clever and the characters felt real. Whip smart and perfectly executed’ C J Tudor 'A dark, addictive, suburban nightmare. Five Bad Deeds is an edge of your seat, up all night delight' Chris Whitaker 'Caz Frear is on fire! Five Bad Deeds is an absolute scorcher with a moral message about the effect of our actions on others at its dark and thrilling heart' Victoria Selman 'Five Bad Deeds is ferociously entertaining, spiky, bitchy, funny - and absolutely messed with my head in the most fun way. Bravo, Frear!' Catherine Ryan Howard 'Few crime authors are able to bring characters to life in the way Frear does, and it's a testament to her skill that we are rooting for Ellen as her world unravels while thrilling at her discomfort' Fiona Cummins 'Layered characters, gut-punching twists and beautifully written. This is addictive reading from Caz' Jo Spain 'An utterly compelling, superbly characterised, constantly fascinating mystery. I read with my eyes inches from the pages as each new reveal unfolded, and the final reveal was superb' Gytha Lodge ‘This book is genius. Funny, authentic, keeps you guessing and gasping as you can’t trust ANYONE. Bravo Caz Frear’ Jo Callaghan 'It is glorious. Every line is a pithy zinger and every character so well drawn. I'm normally a fast reader, but I'm taking my time to savour every word, it's that good' Michelle Davies ‘Had me holding my breath for the last fifty pages.

Five Ballets from Paris and St. Petersburg - Doug Fullington, Marian Smith
Five Ballets from Paris and St. Petersburg offers fascinating new looks at five classic story ballets: Giselle (1841), Paquita (1846), Le Corsaire (1856), La Bayadère (1877), and Raymonda (1898), drawing on a treasure trove of manuscripts that offer explicit written information about how many nineteenth-century ballets were performed in their earliest incarnations. Bursting with details forgotten for more than a century, these manuscripts bring the ballets to life by disclosing steps, floor patterns, and mime conversations as well as valuable insight into how the music helped create the drama.Generously enriched with more than 50 images and more than 350 musical examples, the book also includes, in appendices, English translations of seven French and Russian librettos. Emerging from the plenteous new findings in this book is a fresh portrait of a living, breathing art form with strong audience appeal. Simply put, Five Ballets fills huge gaps in dance history, inviting both general readers and specialists to rethink the usual narratives about nineteenth-century ballet, its music, characters, and choreographies, its depictions of Others and Elsewhere, and the careers of its major choreographers. It also offers a rich resource to practitioners seeking to learn how the makers of these five classic ballets found such great success.

An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth - Chris Hadfield
Back on the earth after three spaceflights, Chris Hadfield''s captivating memoir An Astronaut''s Guide to Life on Earth reveals extraordinary stories from his life as an astronaut, and shows how to make the impossible a reality. This edition contains a new afterword.Colonel Chris Hadfield has spent decades training as an astronaut and has logged nearly 4,000 hours in space. During this time he has broken into a Space Station with a Swiss army knife, disposed of a live snake while piloting a plane, been temporarily blinded while clinging to the exterior of an orbiting spacecraft, and become a YouTube sensation with his performance of David Bowie''s ''Space Oddity'' in space. The secret to Chris Hadfield''s success – and survival – is an unconventional philosophy he learned at NASA: prepare for the worst – and enjoy every moment of it.In his book, An Astronaut''s Guide to Life on Earth, Chris Hadfield takes readers deep into his years of training and space exploration to show how to make the impossible possible. Through eye-opening, entertaining stories filled with the adrenaline of launch, the mesmerizing wonder of spacewalks and the measured, calm responses mandated by crises, he explains how conventional wisdom can get in the way of achievement – and happiness. His own extraordinary education in space has taught him some counter-intuitive lessons: don''t visualize success, do care what others think, and always sweat the small stuff.You might never be able to build a robot, pilot a spacecraft, make a music video or perform basic surgery in zero gravity like Colonel Hadfield. But his vivid and refreshing insights in this book will teach you how to think like an astronaut, and will change, completely, the way you view life on Earth – especially your own.

Listen to Your Day – The Life–Changing Practice of Paying Attention - Paul Angone
What are you supposed to do with your life? What deserves your limited reserve of energy, attention, and time? What''s making you anxious or frustrated right now? What would make you happy and fulfilled? The world is shouting its answers to these questions, but the real answers are quieter--and right in front of you. They are in the details of your day, every day. But we usually look right past them. Or we are simply so distracted we''ve lost the ability to see and hear the life going on right in front of us. If we''re not intentional about changing this trend, this "inattentional blindness" can rob us of years of joyful productivity. But when we learn to observe the details of our days, we discover new lenses through which to see and new practices of paying attention that add meaning to life.Stop drifting. Stop worrying. Stop living distracted. Walk purposefully through life with a firm grasp on what''s important to you and what you''re working toward--all by listening to the details of your day.

She can quickly check on Gramps, rent out the cottage, and return to her life. Yet when she arrives at the independent living community, the WiFi keeps dropping, Gramps interrupts her meetings, and the cottage needs renovating—according to the handsome, extroverted property manager. So much for grand plans. Soon Mal finds herself caught up in senior citizen aerobics, new friendships, nightly chats with Gramps—and in the sparks flying with her charming property manager. Then, just when her new life and chance at love feel worth leaving her safety net behind, she gets the worst notice ever: All employees must return to the office.
