Esküv? Tour: ?gy éld meg jól az esküv?det!
Mikos Ákos
¥57.31
Kicsoda a férfi? Bátor harcos, aki minden veszélyt?l megóvja családját? Csábító macsó, a n?i szívek elrablója? Példás és odaadó apa, aki munka után a gyerekeinek él? Nagy formátumú gondolkodó, zseniális tudós? Vagy épp az ellenkez?je: er?szakos, bárdolatlan, züll?tt, ?nz? és hatalmaskodó? Esetleg, ami még rosszabb: egyszer?en csak papucs? A férfi a teremtés koronája és bukott angyal: amit felépít az egyik kezével, azt romba d?nti a másikkal. Szájkosarat visel? fenevad, aki jól-rosszul igyekszik alakítani a kultúrlény szerepét. ?nt?rvény? lázadó, aki fejjel rohan a falnak, mik?zben t?bbet kell pátyolgatni, mint egy óvodást. Igazi vezéregyéniség, aki megfutamodásra késztet a saját szennyese. Szendi Gábor a t?le megszokott szellemes stílusban, kíméletlen alapossággal mutatja be az er?sebbiknek vélt nemet. A férfi maga a rendszerhiba, az evolúció átgondolatlan, sebtiben ?sszetákolt találmánya. Gyártási folyamatának kulisszái m?gé pillantva láthatjuk, hányféle buktatón át vezet az út, mire egyáltalán megszületik – az igazi bonyodalmak pedig csak ezután k?vetkeznek. A férfit fenyeget? legnagyobb veszély ugyanis éppen saját maga. A férfi hanyatlása és bukása súlyos állításokat fogalmaz meg, és nem ígér kész recepteket, együtt gondolkodásra hív. Meglep? ?sszefüggéseivel és vadonatúj néz?pontjaival A n? felemelkedése és tünd?klése méltó párja. Szendi Gábor író és pszichológus, a paleolit táplálkozás magyarországi meghonosítója és elterjeszt?je, szabadgondolkodó. Azt vallja, hogy modern világunk fényévekre távolodott attól a létformától, amihez évmilliók során alkalmazkodtunk. Bár nagyvárosokban élünk, és szuperintelligens kütyükkel vesszük k?rül magunkat, az agyunk még mindig egy vadászó-gy?jt?get? t?rzs tagjáé. Ha teljesebb és boldogabb életre vágyunk, el?sz?r meg kell értenünk, mire is lettünk kitalálva.

The Gentlemen’s Book Of Etiquette
The Gentlemen’s Book Of Etiquette
Cecil B. Hartley
¥8.09
Ever wondered what to do in polite society if you find an insect in your food? Or how a gentleman should ask a lady to dance? And what on earth is the etiquette for smoking cigars? First published in 1860, Cecil B. Hartley's classic guide to gentlemanly behaviour is a veritable mine of information and indispensable advice for aspiring gentlemen. No matter if a man finds himself at a party, meeting someone new or travelling abroad, he has but to leaf through this book to learn how best to behave, and indeed how not to behave. And if he can find time between his numerous invitations to balls and hunting parties, he could benefit from a perusal of the sections on gentlemanly deportment and conversational technique. Not forgetting, of course, the all-important advice on how to treat ladies, surely an integral part of any true gentleman's training. Published here in a stunning edition alongside The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, this is the perfect gift for the would-be gentleman in your life. While it's an excellent volume for dipping into for hilarious nuggets of outdated advice, this guide also contains advice on all manner of topics, from beard-keeping to chivalry, that are just as relevant today as they were in Cecil B. Hartley's time. As he says himself: 'Once a gentleman always a gentleman' and be sure that you can so carry out the rule, that in your most careless, joyous moments, when freest from the restraints of etiquette, you can still be recognizable as a gentleman by every act, word, or look.

The Whisper of Dreams
Ben Hennessy

Hundreds are dead at the hands of The Four. Three months after the events of Leithar Grove, Tamir is a kingdom in fear. The people no longer trust Prince Remelas; his military ambitions are now public knowledge. So the Sons of Tamir, a nationalistic faction created within this atmosphere of betrayal, march on the capital to seek Remelas’ abdication. And still the rumours persist of a young girl who walked away, unharmed, from Leithar Grove that night. Crazed seers and prophets continue to preach of the Queen of the World. Sarene, accompanied by the huge woodsman Kanderil, journeys ever onwards in hope of finding shelter from the coming winter. Her family left behind, her brother dead, she finds herself increasingly isolated from a world becoming steadily more perilous. Sarene refuses to believe what these nameless strangers say about her. Yet she must come face to face with the truth of what she is. What she represents . ? And that truth will come at the highest cost.

In the legends, the Four saved the world from war and poverty. These incredible men walked the lands, seeking an audience with the ruler of each nation. They demanded that mankind focus its efforts on education, trade and culture. No longer would the people face starvation and terror. This commandment was enforced with displays of miraculous power. After all, it is difficult to argue with the Gods. Once finished, the Four left with a promise: If ever your people fall back into darkness, then we shall return. Now, over five centuries later, Sarene grows tired of her village life. Suffocated by the confines of her surroundings and the overbearing protection of her family, she yearns to have an adventure of her own. But the world outside is not as tranquil as it seems. And Sarene is already in danger...

Are you worried about how to pay for college?? Are admissions requirements dictating your family’s lives?? Are you concerned about your child’s job prospects after graduation? If any of these questions resonate with you, it’s time to consider college in Europe.?? As a mother confronted by these issues, Jennifer Viemont took it upon herself to meticulously research, personally visit, and carefully consider the alternatives in continental Europe. She found over 300 accredited universities offering high-quality bachelor’s degree programs taught entirely in English—no foreign language skills needed—for a fraction of what American schools charge. You’ll be amazed to find that, in many cases, the cost of earning an entire bachelor’s degree (including travel costs) is less than just one year’s fees at an American university.?

Lotus Lake, Dragon Pool: More Encounters in Yoga And Zen
Trevor Leggett
¥40.79
Collected by the author over many years, these stories from the Yoga and Zen traditions are the flint and steel that strike a spark that lights up the mind with insights that one should ponder daily to bring to light ever deeper meaning. They may be similar in intent to Zen Koans – but they are rather different in content. In many Zen Koans someone says or does something extraordinarily inappropriate, which catches your attention just because it’s extraordinary –but afterwards the light from them has to be applied to daily life. In contrast, the stories here are often ordinary incidents from ordinary lives (not that there aren’t some extraordinary ones too!) that nevertheless open the mind’s eye to the vast potential for realization and inspiration to be found in daily life. The pictures featured throughout this book were brushed by Jacques Allais in the Suiboku style, in which he was an acknowledged expert. The innate beauty of this ancient monochrome ink-painting technique lies in its subtlety of expression, in which infinitely more is suggested than is drawn on the page – making it the perfect vehicle for focusing meditation practice as well as an ideal complement to the stories in this book.

Conversations with Stones contains information for connecting with 68 high vibration stones. Accompanying each one you will find a message channeled directly from the crystals, followed by its metaphysical uses and a meditation to help you connect to the energy of that stone. You will learn how to use crystal grids for manifestation and visualization, how to form you own Crystal Club, and how to talk to your own stones at home. Stones have been here since the beginning of time, watching our planet form among the stars, seeing our earthly plants breath their first breath, cheering us on as we took our first steps. Each crystal has its own unique spirit, and its own driving mission. Many of the crystals and minerals in this book are quite rare or unusual. Every stone is special, with its own energy signature and message for you, the bearer. Small or large, each one is a powerful tool for connecting with the divine and shifting your vibration.
