Proslulý tvůrce obrázkových knih Jon Klassen získal za svůj suchý úsporný humor v knihách pro děti řadu ocenění od dospělých. V této absurdní meditaci o přátelství, osudu, futuristických vizích a divném pocitu, v pěti kapitolkách složených výhradně z dialogů, seznamuje čtenáře s želvou, pásovcem a hadem – v kloboucích a s jednoznačnými charaktery. Želvák stojí na oblíbeném místě. Líbí se mu tam tak moc, že vyzve pásovce, aby si tam přišel stoupnout také. Ale najednou má z toho špatný pocit... Tak začíná názorné zkoumání osudovosti, proložené jen malou hrozivou ochutnávkou jiného světa, v němž děti vtipnost „tvoří“ samy a jsou při čtení vždy o krok před hlavními hrdiny. Téměř nic se neděje, a přesto se děje všechno. Chytrý, černohumorný a netradiční příběh v autorově typické tlumené barevné paletě snoubí vizuální napětí s břitkým humorem a existenciální bláznivostí a je dalším z jeho minimalistických skvostů. Něco tu nehraje, ale vy to nedokážete pojmenovat? Jon Klassen to nakreslil.

An underground hit – Best Politics Books, Financial Times Jon has one of the few big ideas that s easily applied – Sam Conniff, Be More Pirate A wonderful guide to how to be human in the 21st Century – Ece Temelkuran, How to Lose a Country With an introduction by Brian Eno Description Citizens opens up a new way of understanding ourselves and shows us what we must do to survive and thrive as individuals, organisations, and nations. Over the past decade, Jon Alexander’s consultancy, the New Citizenship Project, has helped revitalise some of Britain’s biggest organisations including the Co-op, the Guardian and the National Trust. Here, with the New York Timesbestselling writer Ariane Conrad, he shows how history is about to enter the age of the Citizen. Because when our institutions treat people as creative, empowered creatures rather than consumers, everything changes. Unleashing the power of everyone equips us to face the challenges of economic insecurity, climate crisis, public health threats, and polarisation. Citizens is an upbeat handbook, full of insights, clear examples to follow, and inspiring case studies, from the slums of Kenya to the backstreets of Birmingham – and a foreword by Brian Eno. It is the perfect pick-me-up for leaders, founders, elected officials – and citizens everywhere. An ideal companion to the groundbreaking books Doughnut Economics and Radical Help. Organise and seize the future! Reviews Every great transformation requires a new story. A story that reveals new possibilities and points toward an optimistic alternative to the current situation. Citizens presents just such a story. – Tim Brown, Chair of IDEO and author of Change By Design The shift from consumer to citizen is a truly big idea. If you’re in a position of strategic influence, I strongly recommend you engage with this and consciously explore what it might mean for your organisation. – Dame Fiona Reynolds DBE, Former Director General, National Trust, and Trustee, BBC The belief that every single one of us has both the potential and the desire to make the world better drives me every day, in everything I do. In Citizens, Jon shows how taking that belief as a starting point really could transform our world. This is a truly powerful book, in every sense of the word. - Josh Babarinde, Forbes 30 Under 30 Social Entrepreneur There is such a thing as an idea whose time has come. This is that idea. – James Perry, Board Member, B Lab Global, and Founding Partner, Snowball Investment Management About the Authors JON ALEXANDER began his career with success in advertising, winning the prestigious Big Creative Idea of the Year before making a dramatic change. Driven by a deep need to understand the impact on society of 3,000 commercial messages a day, he gathered three Masters degrees, exploring consumerism and its alternatives from every angle. In 2014, he co-founded the New Citizenship Project to bring the resulting ideas into contact with reality. In Citizens, he is ready to share them with the world. BRIAN ENO is an artist, philosopher and Citizen who has played a critical part in British culture since the early 1970s. He is a deep believer in the power of ideas and the possibility of a better world. His latest book is What Art Does. Buy the book and start readingForeword.

Jon Alexander sets out the need to step into the Citizen Story so that we can deal with the many challenges of our age: economic insecurity, ecological emergency, public health threats, political polarisation, and more.

How humans are bound together through interdependence and reciprocity, and in turn have a deep bond with nature, which conventional big business cannot understand. Picks apart the self-dependence and utilitarian philosophy of tech billionaires Peter Thiel and Mark Zuckerberg 3. Citizens By Nature. Central to the Citizen Story is a belief in ourselves and in human nature as creative, capable, and caring, rather than lazy, self-interested, and competitive within a zero-sum framework.

It is a book about love, community, and life in rural Japan.Gourmand World Cookbook Awards 2012: USA Winner, Best Japanese Cuisine Book Our life centers on the farm and the field. We eat what we grow. --Nancy Singleton HachisuJapanese Farm Food offers a unique window into life on a Japanese farm through the simple, clear-flavored recipes cooked from family crops and other local, organic products. The multitude of vibrant images by Kenji Miura of green fields, a traditional farmhouse, antique baskets, and ceramic bowls filled with beautiful, simple dishes are interwoven with Japanese indigo fabrics to convey an intimate, authentic portrait of life and food on a Japanese farm. With a focus on fresh and thoughtfully sourced ingredients, the recipes in Japanese Farm Food are perfect for fans of farmers markets, and for home cooks looking for accessible Japanese dishes. Personal stories about family and farm life complete this incredible volume.American born and raised, Nancy Singleton Hachisu lives with her husband and teenage sons on a rural Japanese farm, where they prepare these 165 bright, seasonal dishes. The recipes are organized logically with the intention of reassuring you how easy it is to cook Japanese food. Not just a book about Japanese food, Japanese Farm Food is a book about love, life on the farm, and community. Covering everything from pickles and soups to noodles, rice, and dipping sauces, with a special emphasis on vegetables, Hachisu demystifies the rural Japanese kitchen, laying bare the essential ingredients, equipment, and techniques needed for Japanese home cooking. Nancy Hachisu is...intrepid. Outrageously creative. Intensely passionate. Committed. True and real. I urge you to cook from this book with abandon, but first read it like a memoir, chapter by chapter, and you will share in the story of a modern-day family, a totally unique and extraordinary one. --Patricia Wells This book is both an intimate portrait of Nancy s life on the farm, and an important work that shows the universality of an authentic food culture. --Alice Waters The modest title Japanese Farm Food turns out to be large, embracing and perhaps surprising. Unlike the farm-to-table life as we know it here, where precious farm foods are cooked with recipes, often with some elaboration, real farm food means eating the same thing day after day when it’s plentiful, putting it up for when it s not, and cooking it very, very simply because the farm demands so much more time in the field than in the kitchen. This beautiful, touching, and ultimately common sense book is about a life that s balanced between the idea that a life chooses you and that you in turn choose it and then live it wholeheartedly and largely. Thank you, Nancy, for sharing your rich, intentional and truly inspiring life. --Deborah Madison Nancy Hachisu’s amazing depth of knowledge of Japanese food and culture shines through in every part of this book. You will feel as if you live next door to her...savoring and learning her down-to-earth approach to cooking and to loving food. --Hiroko Shimbo Taking a peek into Nancy Hachisu s stunning Japanese Farm Food is like entering a magical world. It s a Japan that used to be, not the modern Japan defined by the busyness of Tokyo, but a more timeless place, a place whose rhythms are set by seasons and traditions and the work of the farm. Japanese Farm Food is so much more than a cookbook. This book has soul. Every vegetable, every tool has a story. Who grew this eggplant? Who made this soy sauce? Nancy doesn t have to ask, Where does my food come from? She knows. Here s a woman who grows and harvests her own rice, grain by grain. Not that she asks or expects us to do the same at all. What she does offer is a glimpse into her life in rural Japan, with its shoji screens and filtered light, and recipes from her farm kitchen that you can t wait to try. --Elise Bauer, SimplyRecipes.com Japanese Farm Food is a lovely book about the culture, landscape, and food of Japan, a true insider s view of the Japanese kitchen, from farm to table, by a passionate and talented writer. --Michael Ruhlman

Začněte praktikovat mindfulness a zlepšete své zdraví, soustředění i radost z každého dne, zatímco snížíte hladinu stresu. Tím nejpovolanějším průvodcem vám bude profesor Jon Kabat-Zinn, zakladatel moderního programu všímavosti.Mindfulness, neboli meditace všímavosti, je duševní trénink zaměřený na prožívání přítomného okamžiku. Její blahodárné účinky na zdraví a psychickou pohodu jsou vědecky prokázané. Praktikují ji známé osobnosti jako Al Gore, Clint Eastwood, Oprah Winfreyová nebo ragbista Jonny Wilkinson. O mindfulness píší světová média (Time, Scientific American, Newsweek), firmy jako Google či Twitter svým zaměstnancům hradí kurzy a stovky nemocnic po celém světě zavádějí léčebné programy založené na jejích principech.Kabat-Zinn, který v roce 1979 založil na Massachusettské univerzitě Kliniku snižování stresu, stojí u zrodu programu MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction). Ten kombinuje prvky buddhistické meditace a jógy a využívá se dnes v více než 720 zdravotnických zařízeních po celém světě. Díky němu se mindfulness dostala do hlavního proudu medicíny i k široké veřejnosti.Kniha Život samá pohroma je Kabat-Zinnovým klíčovým dílem. Poprvé vyšla před více než 25 lety, v roce 2013 byla zásadně přepracována a doplněna o nejnovější vědecké poznatky i zkušenosti z praxe. Dodnes patří k základním pramenům pro všechny, kdo chtějí mindfulness poznat a začít praktikovat.V knize se dozvíte: jak naslouchat svému tělu a lépe zvládat potíže jako chronickou bolest, úzkost či nespavost, jak pracovat se stresem z práce, vztahů nebo životních rolí, co ví věda o propojení duševního a fyzického zdraví a jak posílit imunitu, ucelený a srozumitelný návod, jak i doma projít osvědčeným meditačním kurzem MBSR, praktické tipy, jak vnést všímavost do každodenního života. Knihu doprovází audio nahrávka českého lektora Jaroslava Chýleho, která vám usnadní začátky meditační praxe.Jon Kabat-Zinn (*1944) je emeritním profesorem medicíny na Massachusettské univerzitě. Je autorem osmi knih přeložených do 30 jazyků a vedl výcvik mnoha byznysmenů, olympioniků i osobností veřejného života.

Kniha je společným dílem tří špičkových profesionálních hráčů pokerových multi-table turnajů na internetu, kteří mají odehrány desítky tisíc turnajů a na svém kontě více než 1 800 finálových stolů a stovky velkých výher. Pojďme si je nyní představit: Eric Rizen Lynch patří již léta mezi naprostou špičku turnajového pokeru. Přestože se věnuje především hře na internetu, má za sebou i celou řadu velkých úspěchů v živém pokeru a celkově si na své konto v živých turnajích připsal bezmála 1 000 000$. Ještě úspěšnější je Eric na internetu, kde má na svém kontě více než 50 vítězství a celkové výhry přes 1 500 000$. Jon PearlJammer Turner je hráč, kterého také není třeba pokerové veřejnosti příliš představovat. Američan - který nyní sídlí a hraje online poker z Mexika - za svou kariéru potrefoval na internetu více než 200 turnajů a jeho celkové výhry dosahují závratných šesti milionů dolarů. Přestože se také specializuje především na online multi-table pokerové turnaje, nevyhýbá se ani živé hře. I tam je velice úspěšný a za svou kariéru si prozatím v živých turnajích připsal více než jeden milion dolarů. Jon Apestyles Van Fleet je dalším z trojice mladých úspěšných profesionálních hráčů. Jeho výhry v online pokerových turnajích, kde zaznamenal více než 130 vítězství, již přesáhli hranici 5 000 000$. Autorskou trojici doplňuje jako spoluautor majitel vydavatelství Dimat Enterprises, Inc., provozovatel pokerových webových stránek a autor řady pokerových knih Matthew Hilger. I ten se zhruba před deseti lety věnoval pokeru na plný úvazek jako profesionál a na svém kontě má několik větších úspěchů. Postupně se však začal více a více věnovat dalším aktivitám souvisejících s pokerem a své hraní pokeru omezoval. Na co se v knize mohou čtenáři těšit? Kniha Poker - tajemství hry na internetu je napsána v unikátním formátu. Na čtenáře čeká celkem 50 pokerových hand pocházejících ze skutečně odehraných turnajů. Autoři knihy komentují průběh každé odehrané handy od samotného počátku před flopem až do jejího konce, analyzují jednotlivá rozhodnutí a navrhují nejlepší možná zahrání. U každé handy si tak čtenáři mohou přečíst, jak by se v dané situaci zachovali hned tři špičkoví turnajoví profesionálové! Díky tomu mají čtenáři jedinečnou příležitost takříkajíc z první ruky sledovat, jaké faktory při rozhodování zvažují v obtížných situacích ti nejlepší pokeroví hráči. Již po přečtení prvních několika hand je zřejmé, že tajemství úspěšné hry spočívá především v důkladné analýze situace u stolu. Kniha čtenáře naučí, jak správně uvažovat v klíčových situacích, kde záleží nejen na relativní síle kombinace, ale především také na pozici jednotlivých hráčů a velikost jejich stacků. Kromě toho je nutné brát v úvahu také skoky ve výplatní struktuře, které v pozdních fázích turnajů bývají obvykle již značné.

Addicted to Football: A Journey from Anfield to Almost Everywhere is the autobiography of former professional footballer Jon Newby. His career took him from a single Premier League appearance with Liverpool to playing for clubs all over the country in the top eight tiers of the football pyramid. There was also a spell in Scottish football and a venture into non-league management. As a young player, Jon achieved his dream as he walked out in front of a packed Kop at Anfield. But ultimately his name was better known by Bury, Morecambe and Colwyn Bay fans, rather than by Liverpool fans. His story gives a fascinating insight into the unpredictable world of the journeyman footballer, covering battles with injuries, managers and even his own mind. Jon s biggest battle, however, came when he was diagnosed with an incurable heart condition and the game he was addicted to put his life in serious danger.

In his first all-new book in fifteen years, renowned organic grower and bestselling author Eliot Coleman presents his self-fed growing method that continuously sustains soil fertility and produces delicious, exceptionally nutritious vegetables with no need for purchased fertilizer or compost. A radical yet timeless understanding of what organic farming is truly about. . . This book is the culmination of a lifetime of insight, and a must-read for anyone who believes that food can be a force for change. . . a new classic for the ages. Jean-Martin Fortier, author of The Market Gardener. The Self-Fed Farm and Garden presents the organic method as a self-sustaining system rooted in soil health care and shows readers how they can shift to a self-fed model that continually recharges the soil with organic matter, thus allowing the soil food web to provide all the nutrients crops need for healthy growth and excellent yields. Based on his long study of his library of classic farming and gardening books, Eliot Coleman re-engineered the way he managed soils and crops at Four Season Farm over the past decade so that he would never need to purchase off-farm inputs of compost or fertilizer. The self-fed approach combines classic techniques practiced by the pioneers of organic farming, including: Growing green manure crops year-round and shallowly tilling them into the soil. Growing leguminous plants to add nitrogen. Devising effective crop rotation systems for disease and weed control. Once you implement a self-fed system, Coleman explains, then you alone and not the farm and garden products industry are master of your destiny. A self-fed system is safe from contamination by pollutants, which is a key point in this era of widespread contamination of soil and water by PFAS and other forever chemicals. The self-fed system also has the benefit of far lower expenses than those that rely on purchased fertilizers from off the farm. The book also delves into the underlying causes in the shifts in the organic movement, calling out the erosion of standards in the National Organic Program and the greenwashing of the new trend of regenerative agriculture. Eliot includes specific examples, such as how large corporate interests acted to lobby against those who sought to protect the need for pure ingredients in composts for organic farms. In the book s conclusion, Eliot describes the next chapter in the life of Four Season Farm as he and his wife, awarding-winning garden book author Barbara Damrosch, step away from the farm-scale production, making space for a new farming couple to steward the land.
