You cannot get far in these essays without sensing yourself in the presence of a writer of immense intellectual power and fierce independence of mind. - Janet Soskice, from the Introduction to the Routledge Classics editionSimone Weil (1909â “1943) is one of the most brilliant and unorthodox religious and philosophical thinkers of the twentieth century. She was also a political activist who worked in the Renault car factory in France in the 1930s and fought briefly as an anarchist in the Spanish Civil War. Hailed by Albert Camus as the only great spirit of our times, her work spans an astonishing variety of subjects, from ancient Greek philosophy and Christianity to oppression, political freedom and French national identity. Waiting for God is one of her most remarkable books, full of piercing spiritual and moral insight. The first part comprises letters she wrote in 1942 to Jean-Marie Perrin, a Dominican priest, and demonstrate the intense inner conflict Weil experienced as she wrestled with the demands of Christian belief and commitment. She then explores the just balance of the world, arguing that we should regard God as providing two forms of guidance: our ability as human beings to think for ourselves; and our need for both physical and emotional matter. She also argues for the concept of a sacred longing ; that humanity s search for beauty, both in the world and within each other, is driven by our underlying desire for a tangible god. Eloquent and inspiring, Waiting for God asks profound questions about the nature of faith, doubt and morality that continue to resonate today.This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Introduction by Janet Soskice and retains the Foreword to the 1979 edition by Malcolm Muggeridge.

A frenetic account of Britney Spears’s historic rise and equally tragic fall, from Jeff Weiss, LA s Hunter S. Thompson.America, 2003: A country at war, its shiny veneer beginning to crack. Von Dutch and The Simple Life dominate. And on the cover of every magazine, a twenty-one-year-old pop star named Britney Spears. Tracking her every move for a third-tier gossip rag in Los Angeles is a young writer who for all practical purposes let s call Jeff Weiss, who took whatever job he could to pursue his dream of being a “serious” writer. He d instead become a firsthand witness to the slow tragedy of a changing nation, represented in spirit by “the coy it-girl at the end of history.”Years later, after finally making it as a celebrated cultural critic, Weiss presents Waiting for Britney Spears, a gonzo, nostalgic, and mostly true recounting of Britney s rise and fall during his years in the tabloid underbelly of Los Angeles. Weiss follows America’s sweetheart through Vegas superclubs and Malibu car chases, annulled marriages and soul-crushing legal battles, all the way to Britney’s infamous 2007 VMA performance. As Weiss lives through the years leading to Britney’s conservatorship, he observes, with peerless style, cringe-inducing fashion waves, a destructive culture of celebrity surveillance, and a country whose decline is embodied by the devastating downturn of its former golden child.With the narrative flair that established him as a singular chronicler of modern pop culture, Weiss goes for broke in Waiting for Britney Spears, a roaring Künstlerroman of celebrity, obsession, morality, and the last great pop star.

For the past six years, Whitney Dafoe has been confined to a bedroom in the back of his parents home, unable to walk, eat or speak. His diagnosis? The mysterious disease myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) which affects 20 million people around the world who largely suffer in silence because the condition is little known and much misunderstood. Waiting for Superman follows Whitney s father, groundbreaking geneticist Ron Davis, as he uncovers new possibilities for treatments and potentially a cure. At its heart, this book is about more than just cutting-edge research or a race to find an answer - it s about the lengths to which a parent will go to save their child s life.

By the New York Times’s legendary war correspondent, written while battling terminal brain cancer: a life-affirming memoir of high adventure, deep wisdom, and finding true happiness amid the unlikeliest circumstances“This is, by far, the most enlightening and inspiring book on facing death—and on discovering the beauty of life.” —Lynsey Addario, Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalistFor thirty years, Rod Nordland shadowed death. As one of his generation s preeminent war correspondents, he reported in over 150 countries, many of which were in violent upheaval, and was no stranger to witnessing tragedy. But in summer 2019, during the height of India’s erratic monsoon season, Nordland was suddenly faced with a tragedy of his own: he collapsed in the middle of a morning jog, was rushed to the hospital, and diagnosed with a fatal brain tumor.After decades chasing conflicts across the globe, Nordland, now confined to a hospital bed, found the strength to face more personal conflicts. He reconnected with his estranged children and became closer with them than he ever thought possible. He repaired a friendship with a best friend that had been broken for twenty years. The arrogance and certitude that dominated his every action was replaced by a lucid sense of humility and generosity that persisted even after he left the hospital. Norland’s tragedy became, in his own words, “a gift that has enriched my life.” Waiting for the Monsoon is the exemplary story of confronting death with both eyes open, and of the human capacity to persevere even in the most difficult of times. With tremendous clarity, grace, and courage, Nordland has delivered a powerful final assignment, revealing how facing the unknown can transform experience and change our relationship to the world around us.

Současný politický diskurs v USA - a i v dalších průmyslových demokraciích - byl až doposud založen na bezmezné víře v prosperitu , která pramenila z pocitu vítězství nad chudobou a zápasem o přežití. Dnes, když demokracie získala spíše materiální rozměr, se již málo bavíme o tom, kam by měla vlastně směrovat. Stejně tak se neptáme na otázku, jaký vztah by ve skutečnosti měl být mezi menšinou lidstva, která si užívá prosperity a většinou , která k prosperitě přístup nemá. Kniha Waiting for Something That Never Arrived vychází z několika výměn názorů mezi autorem a nedávno zesnulým britským historikem Tony Judtem a postupně se snaží o vybudování filosofického základu pro progresivní myšlení a rozvážnou politickou diskuzi. Kniha je v anglickém jazyce. Autor knihy Dan Shanahan je profesorem komunikace na Fakultě humanitních studií Univerzity Karlovy v Praze. Působil na fakultách Monterey Institute of International Studies v Kalifornii a na Ecole des hautes etudes commerciales v Paříži. Dvakrát také přednášel v rámci stipendií Fulbrightova programu. Je autorem knih Towards a Genealogy of Individualism (UMass Press, 1992) a Language, Feeling and the Brain (Transaction Publishers, 2007).
