Walker

In setting six new world records in track and field Walker demonstrates to the millions and millions of spectators throughout the world the importance of hard work, discipline and precision in performance. His achievements may never be equalled in the athletics arena. Walker is a superman of track and field who will inspire generations of future athletes.

Next Level
¥98.00
The Next Level is not a conventional business book. It sets out to challenge assumptions and offers an alternative approach to old, traditional ways of business thinking. This book takes a refreshingly new look at how you, as a Leader, can achieve success with sustainable profit and growth, through an alignment of both yourself and your business. Laurence Udell utilises his own tried and tested thinking, life experience alongside research from leading edge philosophers, scientists, psychologists, and management thinkers to develop the 4 A's Strategy Model. Through this profoundly inspirational model, the book demonstrates how to work with your current business strategy, its dynamics, patterns and underlying root issues, to create a changed world for your business and yourself, the outcomes being greater financial success and a clearer understanding your own unique role and purpose. The Author's premise is that the health of an organisation is directly attributable to the spiritual, psychological and wellbeing of the leader and the leadership team. With The Next Level he advocates that long-term success and shareholder value can be achieved alongside ethical, authentic leadership and community spirit.
100 Months
¥29.33
John Hicklenton was one of Britain's leading comic book artists, who took his own life in March 2010 with the assistance of Dignitas in Zurich. 100 Months is an apocalyptic parable of environmental devastation written and drawn in fore knowledge of his own impending death.

Controversial, haunting and tortured in all senses, it will inevitably fuel debate around the issues of taking one's own life. Includes a foreword by Pat Mills.

It's alive with native wit and, underpinned by the conflict of courage and cowardice, loyalty and bullying, it's genuinely moving.Very many school groups visit the battlefields of WWI, and Angel of Mons (with its excellent notes at the end) should be essential reading for them all.' - Kevin Crossley-Holland, Author and President of the School Library "e;'This could be something very special' The Literary Consultancy

Masarika universitātē (Brno) mācījies reli?ijas un sociālās zinātnes, savukārt Jana?eka Mūzikas un tēlotājmākslas akadēmijā apguvis dramatur?iju. ?emeca pirmā grāmata “Pirmā dzīve” (První ?ivot) iznāca 2007.gadā. Tai sekoja “Spēlē ?etras rokas” (Hra pro ?ty?i ruce, 2009).? 2013. gadā iznākusī “Gaismas vēsture” (Dějiny světla) ir biogrāfisks romāns par slaveno ?ehu fotogrāfu Franti?eku Drtikolu.? Par ?o romānu autors sa?ēmis vairākas balvas: ?ehijas grāmata 2014, Magnesia Litera 2014 (prozas kategorija) un Josefa ?kvorecka balvu, un Eiropas Savienības Literatūras balvu.

Gaismas, ēnu un formu spēle padara vi?a darbus ?oti at??irīgus no tīras fotogrāfijas un pietuvina tos mākslai - savā zi?ā tā ir kā glezno?ana ar gaismu. Lai arī cik ironiski tas būtu, pa ?iem gadiem strādājo?a fotogrāfa dzīves modelis nav nemaz tik ?oti mainījies. Tāpēc topo?ajiem fotogrāfiem būtu ?oti vērtīgi ielūkoties cita fotogrāfa dzīvē, lai sparastu, kas tas ir un vai tas ir domāts tev. ?oti interesants romāns ikvienam, kuru interesē foto un māksla. Projektu līdzfinansē Eiropas Savienības programma “Rado?ā Eiropa”. Grāmatas izdo?anu līdzfinansējusi Latvijas Republikas Kultūras ministrija un ?ehijas Kultūras ministrija.
