Think you already know the story of Charles Dickens' life? Think again. Almost everything you're familiar with was first mentioned in an authorised biography written by Dickens' close friend John Forster 150 years ago. It's the version of events that Dickens himself chose to make public, and newly accessible archives reveal that it's crammed with gaps, inconsistencies, and outright lies. There's the sister whose existence Dickens kept secret and the Jewish relations whose faith he strove to conceal. There's plagiarism, fraud, and suicide. And that's only for starters. Helena Kelly, author of the acclaimed Jane Austen, the Secret Radical, retells Dickens' story from his childhood to his deathbed, uncovers the truths he tried to keep hidden, and offers a fresh - and deeply troubling - perspective on the man who remains one of Britain's best-known novelists. You won't be able to look at him - or his work - in the same way again.

Part 1 - Language as an isolated phenomenon - How do languages develop, what are the differences and similarities between the languages spoken around the world? Chapters on the origin and use of grammar. Part 2 - Evolution of man - Intellectual development (from Neanderthal to social guru), but also physiological changes in evolution (e.g. brain capacity compared to apes) that have a bearing on our ability to develop language. Nature versus nurture is also discussed, to what extent is language development dependent on genes and environment? Both play a role, but perhaps have less impact than initially you think.

Join the team behind The Price of Football podcast as they start a (fictional) football club and discover what’s really going on behind the scenes of the beautiful game.Buying a football club will set you back a few quid, but you’ve also got to pass the Premier League and EFL''s ‘fit and proper persons test’. That all seems like a bit of a faff to the team behind the award-winning podcast The Price of Football, so acclaimed comedy writer Kevin Day, football finance expert Kieran Maguire and producer Guy Kilty start an imaginary club instead.In Unfit and Improper Persons they take West Park Rovers on a hilarious journey from the lowest level of the FA pyramid right up to the English Football League, the Premier League and, if fortune favours the fictional, into the heart of Europe.At least that’s the plan, but inevitably they face a few challenges along the way. Where to find a shirt sponsor? What should the mascot be – is a dog called Rover too obvious? Can they pay the women’s team the same as the men’s team? (Spoiler alert: hardly anyone else does.) And how can they get Messi to the Kleanwell Stadium next season, like they promised the fans?Roofing over the toilets, paying the electric on the floodlights, salary caps, parachute payments and avoiding bankruptcy, never mind relegation – owning a football club isn’t all about stuffing prawn sarnies and quaffing champagne in the directors’ box.Unfit and Improper Persons is informed, funny and, thanks to exclusive interviews with those who’ve been there, done that, it lays bare the labyrinthine world of football finance.

Dominantní narativ o rasových vztazích v USA dnes říká, že hlavní nebezpečí pro životy černochů představuje bělošský rasismus, zejména násilnický a rasistický rasismus policistů. Podle tohoto názoru je Amerika beznadějně rasistický národ. Vznikla organizace Black Lives Matter (BLM), která vede protesty a dokonce i nepokoje v reakci na případy, kdy běloch, zejména policista, zabije černocha. Kniha Taleeba Starkese Black Lies Matter: Proč jsou lži důležité pro průmysl rasových stížností, je odvážným, prozíravým a pravdivým popisem narůstajících rasových konfliktů a její zásadní poselství má význam pro život nebo smrt. Jeden z nejpoutavějších bodů knihy - podložený množstvím důkazů - se týká toho, co je zdaleka nejvážnějším nebezpečím pro životy černých Američanů: černošští grázlové. Tvrdá data jsou ohromující a děsivá zároveň: Černoši, kteří tvoří 13 procent obyvatel USA, zabijí 90 procent černošských obětí vražd. Běloši, Asiaté a Latinoameričané, kteří tvoří 87 % populace, zabijí 10 % černošských obětí vražd. Již tento bod sám o sobě stačí k vyvrácení tvrzení, že rasističtí běloši jsou dominantní hrozbou pro životy černých Američanů. Je to ještě horší. Starkes píše: \"Čísla vypovídají jen část příběhu této převážně městské války, kde se oběti [až] nápadně podobají svým vrahům\".

Kdybych matce řekla, že na to nemám čas, tak se mnou už v životě nepromluví!Podobná prohlášení důvěrně znají mnozí z nás. Potýkají se s kulturně podmíněným vzorcem chování, kvůli němuž jsou přesvědčeni, že musejí za každých okolností všem vycházet vstříc na úkor vlastních potřeb. To vede k pocitům úzkosti, ztráty identity, k potlačovanému vzteku a někdy i k vyhoření. Kniha odlehčeným, zábavným způsobem pomocí nově vytvořené humorné terminologie uvažuje o příčinách tohoto postoje a nabízí řešení spočívající v různých aspektech respektování vlastních hranic a potřeb. Zabývá se důvody, proč je tak obtížné něco odmítnout, zejména blízkým osobám, tělesnými projevy odmítnutí a spouštěči tohoto rozpoložení. Analyzuje různé druhy „ne“ a jednotlivé oblasti, v nichž je potřeba jednoznačně odmítnout. Jedná se například o vymezení vůči dětem, žadatelům o finanční příspěvek, rodičům, bývalým partnerům, sousedům, přátelům nebo zvířatům. Pojednává také o rizicích a vedlejších účincích odmítnutí a nabízí celou typologii osob, vůči kterým je potřeba si nastavit funkční hranice. Věnuje se též špatnému svědomí po odmítnutí. „Lékárnička odmítání“ v závěrečné části knihy obsahuje: pomoc při rozhodování, vhodné odmítací formulace, jak získat čas, kdy je potřeba zalhat a návod, jak si vést „odmítací deník“ či „vision board“, kde si stanovíme, proti čemu je třeba se vymezit. Každá kapitola je doplněna testy.Annette Lies je původní profesí ekonomka, která později vystudovala dramaturgii. Je autorkou několika úspěšných románů a mnoha scénářů. Žije v Německu.
