Over the years, millions of school children must have written out their address in the same way – their house number and street, their town, their country, their continent, planet Earth, the universe… Following this simplest of patterns, taking each line of the address as a starting point, Tim Radford explores our place in the scheme of things – why we are attached to a particular geographical place and what significance do we have when faced with the realms of astronomy and astrophysics. Fascinating, entertaining and completely original, The Address Book tackles some of the most fundamental questions facing us, and allows us see ourselves completely afresh.

In this fresh and gutsy analysis, Amanda Little lays bare America’s energy past, present and future and shows how the innovatory designs that got it to its current energy crisis will actually save it from ruin. 'We're about to see a revolution in the way we live, fundamental changes to the way our homes work, the way our cars move, the way we grow our food, distribute our products, the way we make and recycle plastics.' - Amanda Little In this adventurous, jargon free, optimistic book, Amanda Little – tipped as 'the new voice of green' by Robert Redford – reveals the gargantuan influence of oil on our daily lives. It fights our wars, grows our crops, produces our plastics and medicines, warms our homes and animates our cities. We've allowed it to seep into every facet of our existence, from the shine on glossy magazine covers to life-saving pharmaceuticals. We depend on it completely. So what does this mean for when the oil runs out? From a deep-sea oil rig to a plastic surgery operating theatre, from New York City's electrical grid to the offices of the Pentagon, from a state-of-the-art wind farm to a testing ground for the cars of tomorrow, Little visits the most eccentric and exciting frontiers of the global energy landscape. As she introduces us to a range of characters - Saudi royalty, grassroots activists, the world's most respected politicians and an array of inventors - she argues that we are on the brink of a revolution in the way we source the energy that is so vital to us; there is an energy future beyond oil - as long as we have the courage and creativity to pursue it. Fresh, gutsy and optimistic, Power Trip will show you our world in a completely new way.

В этой книге – второй из новой серии ?Коды вашей судьбы? – известного психолога, одного из лидеров отечественного и мирового нейролингвистического программирования, психотерапевта высшей в Европе квалификации, описывается то, что смело можно назвать основополагающей теорией и практикой нейропрограммирования своей судьбы и жизнедеятельности. Подробно, в доступной и популярной форме рассказывается о сценариях и сценаристах наших судеб о психопатологиях прошлого и возможного будущего, а также о психологическом времени нашей судьбы. Детально описываются психотехнологии преодоления патологических последствий трудного детства, психотерапии Внутреннего ребенка, избавления от импринтов и психотравм, экологизации собственного будущего, оптимизации психологических временных ориентаций и улучшения Линий Времени. Для психологов, психотерапевтов, консультантов, коучеров и педагогов, но более всего – для всех, кто интересуется психотехнологиями личностных изменений и действительно желает исправить собственную (пока еще Хромую) судьбу, избавиться от последствий Страшного детства и стать хозяином своего прошлого, настоящего и будущего.

Novela de aventuras que tiene lugar en Francia, Italia y varias islas del Mediterráneo entre 1814 y 1838. La historia esta basada en las memorias de Jacques Peuchet, quien escribió sobre un zapatero llamado Fran?ois Picaud.

Fredé hasznos asszony, a j?v? letéteményese. Olyasmire képes, amire csupán a n?k t?redéke: gyermeket szülni. Gileád állama kül?n?s figyelmet fordít arra, hogy ? és társai megértsék, a szülés életük egyetlen célja és értelme. A vallási fundamentalista alapokon kormányzott ország átnevel?k?zpontokban készíti fel a termékeny n?ket, hogy aztán az uralkodó elithez tartozó családokhoz kerülve két éven belül teherbe essenek a ház urától – a féltékeny, ám gyermekre vágyó Feleségek irigy pillantásaitól kísérve. Fredé a Parancsnok házában igyekszik belesimulni a hétk?znapokba, megfelelni a dogmatikus vallási el?írásoknak és mindenekel?tt megfoganni. Ha eltévelyedik, felakasztják a Falra, vagy ki?zik a Telepekre a Nemn?k k?zé hullákat égetni. A Parancsnok azonban egy este a szobájába hívatja, a szigorú tiltás ellenére teljesen egyedül, amire Fredé akkor sem mondhatna nemet, ha akarna. Margaret Atwood disztópiája megrázó vízió egy olyan világról, ahol a n?k egyetlen szerepe, hogy a vallás, az állam és a szaporodás szolgálatában állnak. A szerz? ?ellenjóslat”-nak nevezte regényét, mondván, ha ez a j?v? részletesen leírható, talán nem fog bek?vetkezni. A mára klasszikussá vált kultuszregényt 1986-ban Booker-díjra jel?lték, 1987-ben pedig megnyerte az els? Arthur C. Clarke-díjat; t?bb mint negyven nyelvre lefordították, és számos filmes és színházi feldolgozás után 2017-ben tévésorozatot is bemutattak bel?le. Majd el?veszem azt a kis vajdarabot, melyet vacsora után a jobb cip?m orrába dugtam… Mi nem kaphatunk sem kéz-, sem arckrémeket. Manapság minden ilyesmi haszontalanságnak tekintend?. Tárolóedények vagyunk, csupán a bels? szerveink fontosak számukra. A küls?nk fel?lük kiszikkadhat, megráncosodhat, akár a dió héja. A Feleségek rendeletben sz?gezték le, hogy nekünk ne járjanak testápoló szerek. Nem akarják, hogy vonzók legyünk. ?pp elég nehéz nekik így is…

Ez a t?rténet d?bbenetes, eddig nem látott mélységekben mutatja be a Playboy-villa bizarr, bels? világát és a titkait is annak a férfinak, akinél a villa kulcsa van.Az oregoni kisvárosból származó Holly Sue Cullent egy huszonegy éves korában meghozott spontán d?ntés változtatta Holly Madisonná, Hugh Hefner els? számú barátn?jévé. De miután beveti magát a nyuszi üregébe, Alice Csodaországához hasonlóan a Playboy-villa kívülr?l tündérmeseszer?nek t?n? életér?l beleértve a leghíresebb sztárokkal rendezett bulikat és a saját négy évig tartó valóságshow-ját is gyorsan kiderül, hogy ez a világ nem más, mint a szigorú szabályok, a manipuláció és az ambiciózus, álnok nyuszilányokkal folytatott csaták színtere. Az élet a hírhedt villában messze nem álom, inkább rémálom. ?s miután mindent elveszít, nem marad reménye másban, csak az ?ngyilkosságban. De ahelyett, hogy eldobná az életét, úgy d?nt, hogy inkább a kezébe veszi.Holly ?szintesége megd?bbent? és megindító egyben. Vallomása a villában t?lt?tt id?r?l, a drogokról, a szexr?l, a lelki és testi abúzusról, a hírhedt bulikról a fels? tízezer színfalak m?g?tt zajló valódi életér?l letaglózó olvasmány.Nem véletlenül szerepelt a The New York Times, az Amazon és szinte minden más sikerlista élén, hónapokon át, és adtak el bel?le t?bb millió példányt.

El Principito habita un pequeísimo asteroide, que comparte con una flor caprichosa y tres volcanes. Pero tiene “problemas” con la flor y empieza a experimentar la soledad. Hasta que decide abandonar el planeta en busca de un amigo. Buscando esa amistad recorre varios planetas, habitados sucesivamente por un rey, un vanidoso, un borracho, un hombre de negocios, un farolero, un geógrafo… El concepto de “seriedad” que tienen estas “personas mayores” le deja perplejo y confuso. Prosiguiendo su búsqueda llega al planeta Tierra, pero, en su enorme extensión y vaciedad, siente más que nunca la soledad. Una serpiente le da su versión pesimista sobre los hombres y lo poco que se puede esperar de ellos. Tampoco el zorro contribuye a mejorar su opinión, pero en cambio le ensea el modo de hacerse amigos: hay que crear lazos, hay que dejarse “domesticar”. Y al final le regala su secreto: “Sólo se ve bien con el corazón. Lo esencial es invisible a los ojos”. De pronto el Principito se da cuenta de que su flor le ha “domesticado” y decide regresar a su planeta valiéndose de los medios expeditivos que le ofrece la serpiente. Y es entonces cuando entra en contacto con el aviador, también el hombre habrá encontrado un amigo… Cuando yo tenía seis aos vi en un libro sobre la selva virgen que se titulaba "Historias vividas", una magnífica lámina. Representaba una serpiente boa que se tragaba a una fiera. Esta es la copia del dibujo.En el libro se afirmaba: "La serpiente boa se traga su presa entera, sin masticarla. Luego ya no puede moverse y duerme durante los seis meses que dura su digestión". Reflexioné mucho en ese momento sobre las aventuras de la jungla y a mi vez logré trazar con un lápiz de colores mi primer dibujo. Mi dibujo número uno era de esta manera: Enseé mi obra de arte a las personas mayores y les pregunté si mi dibujo les daba miedo.-por qué habría de asustar un sombrero - me respondieron.Mi dibujo no representaba un sombrero. Representaba una serpiente boa que digiere un elefante. Dibujé entonces el interior de la serpiente boa a fin de que las personas mayores pudieran comprender. Siempre estas personas tienen necesidad de explicaciones. Mi dibujo número dos era así: Las personas mayores me aconsejaron abandonar el dibujo de serpientes boas, ya fueran abiertas o cerradas, y poner más interés en la geografía, la historia, el cálculo y la gramática. De esta manera a la edad de seis aos abandoné una magnífica carrera de pintor. Había quedado desilusionado por el fracaso de mis dibujos número uno y número dos. Las personas mayores nunca pueden comprender algo por sí solas y es muy aburrido para los nios tener que darles una y otra vez explicaciones.

If you don’t know much about marketing, don’t worry. We all start with nothing. I’m Joanna Penn and back in 2008, I had no book sales, no audience, no website, no social media, no podcast, no email list. No nothing. Now I’m a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of thrillers and non-fiction.
