Mike Tyson - Čistá pravda - Mike Tyson

„MEMOÁRY BEZ RUKAVIC“ OD MIKEA TYSONA, BÝVALÉHO MISTRA SVĚTA TĚŽKÉ VÁHY - A LEGENDY V RINGU I MIMO NĚJ.Filozof, hvězda Broadwaye, boxer, zločinec – za tři desetiletí na očích veřejnosti se Mike Tyson vzepřel stereotypům, očekáváním a konvencím. Ze šikanovaného kluka z nejchudší čtvrti Brooklynu se stal Tyson jedním z nejatraktivnějších a nejzuřivějších boxerů historie - a také nejmladším mistrem světa těžké váhy všech dob. Ale jeho záře v ringu byla častokrát ohrožena bezohledným chováním. Léta bujarých večírků, násilnických soubojů a trestních řízení si vybraly svou daň: v roce 2003 spadl Tyson na úplné dno, odsouzený zločinec, zbankrotovaný, pointa tisíců špatných vtipů v televizních show. Ale vybojoval si cestu zpátky; jako člověk, který tvrdil, že byl závislým „na všem“, si opět vydobyl úspěch, svou důstojnost a lásku své rodiny: svou triumfální one-man show, nezapomenutelným výkonem ve filmu Pařba ve Vegas, svým nově nalezeným štěstím a vyrovnaností v roli otce a manžela. Tysonův příběh je fascinujícím americkým originálem. Tyson zaznamenává své bouřlivé stavy nahoře a dole brutálně upřímně, syrově a častokrát vesele, ale taky stejně upřímným a přímočarým způsobem, jaký jsme od něj jako od legendárného sportovce očekávali. Pozoruhodná cesta z brooklynských ghett k celosvětové slávě a špatné pověsti a nakonec ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Železné ambice - Co jsem se naučil od muže, který ze mě udělal šampiona - Mike Tyson

Bývalý mistr světa v těžké váze a autor životopisných bestsellerů přinášejí detailní pohled na život a lekce Cuse D’Amata, legendárního boxerského trenéra a náhradního otce Mika Tysona.Když Cus D’Amato poprvé viděl třináctiletého Mika Tysona spárovat v ringu, prohlásil, „Tohle je mistr světa v těžké váze.“ D’Amato, jenž předtím řídil kariéry mistrů světa Floyda Pattersona a Josého Torrese, trénoval mladého boxera několik let; zemřel několik měsíců předtím, než se Tyson stal nejmladším mistrem světa v těžké váze v historii.D’Amato hrál velkou roli v Tysonových formativních letech. Zákonně ho adoptoval jako šestnáctiletého, když zemřela jeho matka, a po letech života v chudobě ho psychicky i fyzicky formoval. V knize Železné ambice Tyson popisuje životní lekce, které mu D’Amato uděloval, a přemítá, jak v něm trenérova moudrá slova stále rezonují i mimo ring. Kniha také popisuje Cusův odvážný boj proti mafiánům, kteří ovládali box, a odhaluje nám o této jedinečné osobnosti víc, než jsme dosud věděli.

Starry Messenger - Neil deGrasse Tyson

Bringing his cosmic perspective to civilization on Earth, Neil deGrasse Tyson, bestselling author of Astrophysics for People in a Hurry, shines new light on the crucial fault lines of our time-war, politics, religion, truth, beauty, gender, race, and tribalism-in a way that stimulates a deeper sense of unity for us all.In a time when our political and cultural perspectives feel more divisive than ever, Tyson provides a much-needed antidote to so much of what divides us, while making a passionate case for the twin engines of enlightenment-a cosmic perspective and the rationality of science.After thinking deeply about how a scientist views the world and about what Earth looks like from space, Tyson has found that terrestrial thoughts change as our brain resets and recalibrates life's priorities, along with the actions we might take in response. As a result, no outlook on culture, society, or civilisation remains untouched.In Starry Messenger, Tyson reveals just how human the enterprise of science is. Far from a cold, unfeeling undertaking, scientific methods, tools, and discoveries have shaped modern civilisation and created the landscape we've built for ourselves on which to live, work, and play.

Zamýšľa sa nad takými témami, ako sú vojna, politika, náboženstvo, pravda, krása, rod a rasa, a svojím objektívnym pohľadom akoby z hĺbky vesmíru úplne mení náš názor na život.Svojráznym, sarkastickým a presvedčivým spôsobom nám rozpráva o všetkom, čím žijeme. Zrazu si uvedomíme malichernosť našich problémov, nanovo prehodnotíme svoje životné hodnoty a dokonca prevychováme svoje zbytočne veľké ego.Neil deGrasse Tyson sa opiera o dvojicu progresívnych prístupov – o kozmickú perspektívu a racionálnu vedu. Jednoduchým spôsobom zhromažďuje fakty podložené vedeckými informáciami, aby sme aj my pochopili mnohé pravdy, ktoré nám vyrazia dych. Jeden príklad za všetky – potenciálne kozmické bytosti by vzhľadom na pomer veľkosti mozgu a tela kontaktovali v prvom rade mravce, nie nás.Hviezdny posolnám jasným a zrozumiteľným štýlom vkladá do rúk vedeckú paletu, vďaka ktorej svet zažiari v nových farbách.

When Steam Ruled the Roads - Colin Tyson

The period between the late 1800s and the late 1920s was the heyday of the road steam traction engine. Prior to that, ‘portable’ steam engines were pulled by horses from farm to farm to provide the power unit for belting to machinery for tasks such as the annual threshing. The invention of the self-moving traction engine brought many advances, always staying one jump ahead of amendments to the Locomotive Acts. Fairground operators hauled their huge road train of rides to the next fair; ploughing engines and threshing engines travelled from farm to farm; road hauliers carried huge loads; and steam rollers laid and mended the roads. The availability of cheap surplus First World War petrol vehicles saw road hauliers and fairground showmen dispense with the ‘hassle’ of operating steam vehicles, yet there were still manufacturers making steam wagons until the late 1930s and several councils carried on operating true steam rollers right into the 1960s.Colin Tyson presents a vibrant selection of images celebrating traction engines in all their many and varied forms when ‘steam ruled the roads’.

Aveling & Porter - Colin Tyson

An eminent early preservationist, John Crawley was able to amass an enviable photographic archive of steam traction engines and road rollers in their working days, of which this Aveling & Porter selection formed just a part. Organiser of over eighty steam rallies, John saved up to thirty steam traction engines for preservation from the mid-1950s to the early 1960s, at a time when they were considered not much more than worthless scrap. Indeed, he became the first owner of no fewer than twenty-two of them.Utilising this incredible and unique collection of images, most of which are previously unpublished, Colin Tyson tells the story of this important manufacturer and iconic British brand.

A Climate of Truth - Berners-Lee Mike

We have most of the technology we need to combat the climate crisis - and most people want to see more action. But after three decades of climate COPs, we are accelerating into a polycrisis of climate, food security, biodiversity, pollution, inequality, and more. What, exactly, has been holding us back? Mike Berners-Lee looks at the challenge from new angles. He stands further back to gain perspective; he digs deeper under the surface to see the root causes; he joins up every element of the challenge; and he learns lessons from our failures of the past. He spells out why, if humanity is to thrive in the future, the most critical step is to raise standards of honesty in our politics, our media, and our businesses. Anyone asking ''what can each of us do right now to help?'' will find inspiration in this practical and important book.

Undisputed: A Champion's Life - Donovan Bailey

From the lush fields of his boyhood in Jamaica, to the basketball courts of Oakville, where he came of age in one of Canada''s most thriving cultural mosaics, to his sprint toward double Olympic gold for Canada in Atlanta in 1996, Donovan Bailey got a long way on natural talent. But he also learned that in the bureaucratic world of Canadian sports, an athlete who didn''t come up in the system needed to take charge of his fate if he was going to become the world''s best. As he ascended from outsider to dominant athlete, others didn''t always understand the rigour at work behind Bailey''s confident demeanour. He''d learned from watching Muhammad Ali that a champion needed to act like a champion. But media grew fixated on the sprinter''s immodesty, the likes of which they never saw from Canadian athletes, especially track athletes in the wake of the Ben Johnson doping scandal at Seoul in 1988. Bailey was having none of it, and when he called out Canada''s subtle racism and contradicted the prevailing idea most Canadians had of their country, he left in his wake a media uproar and cracked wide open the nation''s moral complacency.

Truth Not Served by Human Hands - Timothy A. Gatewood

In Truth Not Served by Human Hands, Timothy A. Gatewood offers a profound exploration of the relationship between God and truth, rooted in Thomistic theology and classical theism. He presents a participatory theory of truth, emphasizing that all creaturely truth originates from and participates in the First Truth—God Himself. ?By retrieving and adapting Thomas Aquinas's doctrine of the divine intellect, Gatewood challenges modern and postmodern philosophical assumptions, advocating for a return to classical theological frameworks to rediscover objective, knowable truth. The book defends classical doctrines such as divine simplicity, immutability, and aseity, while engaging with alternative models of theism. Structured into three sections, the book begins by examining the relationship between divinity and truth, and the necessity of theological retrieval to bridge the metaphysical–epistemological divide. It contrasts classical theism with theistic mutualism, highlighting implications for divine omniscience and truth. The second section traces the historical and conceptual development of Reformed Thomism, showcasing its influence on Protestantism, Reformed Scholasticism, and Puritan thought. The final section provides a detailed exposition of Thomistic participation, the divine intellect, and the divine Ideas, culminating in a participatory model of truth. ?This book addresses key doctrines such as divine simplicity, transcendence, and the analogy of being, ...

A Short History of Truth - Julian Baggini

How did we find ourselves in a "post-truth" world of "alternative facts"? And can we get out of it? A Short History of Truth sets out to answer these questions by looking at the complex history of truth and falsehood. It identifies ten types of supposed truth and explains how easily each can become the midwife of falsehood. There is no species of truth that we can rely on unquestioningly, but that does not mean the truth can never be established. Attaining truth is an achievement we need to work for, and each chapter will end up with a truth we can have some confidence in. This history builds into a comprehensive and clear explanation of why truth is now so disputed by exploring 10 kinds of truth: 1. Eternal truths.2. Authoritative truths.3. Esoteric truths.4. Reasoned truths.5. Evidence-based truths.6. Creative truths.7. Relative truths. 8. Powerful truths9. Moral truths.10. Holistic truths. Baggini provides us with all we need to restore faith in the value and possibility of truth as a social enterprise. Truth-seekers need to be sceptical not cynical, autonomous not atomistic, provisional not dogmatic, open not empty, demanding not unreasonable.

On Truth in Politics - Michael Patrick Lynch

The “philosopher of truth” (Jill Lepore, The New Yorker) shows why truth is an essential democratic value—and how it can be strengthenedDo any of us really care about truth when it comes to politics? Should we? In a world of big lies, denialism, and conspiracy theories, democracies are experiencing two interlocked crises: a loss of confidence in democracy itself and the growing sense among many that politics is only about power—not truth. In this book, Michael Patrick Lynch argues that truth not only can—but must—matter in politics. He shows why truth is an essential democratic value—a value we need to sustain our democratic way of life—and how it can be strengthened.Despite evidence that people are rarely motivated by truth when it comes to politics, On Truth in Politics argues that this isn’t inevitable. Accessibly written and rigorously argued, it draws on the American pragmatist tradition to develop an original theory of the nature and value of truth in the messy world of politics. Contrary to the belief of many, political beliefs can be true or false. But if democracy is to continue to be a space of reason and not just an arena of power, we must build a better ...
