Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - As heard on Radio 4's Free ThinkingThe first English-language biography of Henri Bergson, the philosopher who defined individual creativity and transformed twentieth century thought. At the dawn of the twentieth century, Henri Bergson became the most famous philosopher on earth. Where prior t…hinkers sketched out a predictable universe, he asserted the transformative power of consciousness and creativity. An international celebrity, he made headlines around the world debating luminaries like Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein about free will and time. The vision of creative evolution and freedom he presented was so disruptive that the New York Times branded him 'the most dangerous man in the world.' In the first English-language biography of Bergson, Emily Herring traces how his celebration of the time-bending uniqueness of individual experience struck a chord with those shaken by modern technological and social change. Bergson captivated a society in flux like no other. Long after he faded from public view, his insights into memory, time, joy and creativity continue to shape our perceptions to this day. Herald of a Restless World is an electrifying portrait of a singular intellect.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A unique new window onto Tudor life, told through ordinary people's untimely deaths. How did ordinary people live in Tudor England This unique history unearths the ways they died to find out. Uncovering thousands of coroners' reports, An Accidental History of Tudor England explores the histor…y of everyday life, and everyday death, in a world far from the intrigues of Hampton Court Palace, Shakespeare's plots and the Spanish Armada. Here, farming, building and travel were dangerous. Fruit trees killed more people than guns, and sheep killed about the same number as coalmines. Men stabbed themselves playing football and women drowned in hundreds fetching water. Going to church had its dangers, especially when it came to bell-ringing, archery practice was perilous and haystacks claimed numerous victims. Restless animals roamed the roads which contained some potholes so deep men could drown, and drown they did.From bear attacks in north Oxford to a bowls-on-ice-incident on the Thames, this book uses a remarkable trove of sources and stories to put common folk back into the big picture of Tudor England, bringing the reality of their world to life as never before.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Empathy is the way we react to each other, and it defines how we conduct ourselves in this world. In any human situation, the degree to which we give empathy illustrates the depth to which we appreciate other's feelings, and the amount of empathy we receive often defines the extent to which w…e feel understood. Our ability to recognize social cues, act with sensitivity and generosity, concern ourselves with matters of fairness and morality and create relationships - whether at work or at home - which thrive, all depend on finding empathy in ourselves and in others. Too often in recent years has the narrative around empathy been dominated by cautionary tales of the 'empath' with their bias towards negative emotional expressions. You'll learn: - How being empathetic will bring out the best virtues in yourself and others - How empathy will help you connect and find deep lasting relationships - How to use empathy to make better decisions at home and at work - How to attract empathy, making your world a kinder place. - How to regulate your empathy, avoid focusing on negative emotions and evade compassion fatigue or burnout. - Why young people are more focused on mental health, wellbeing, fairness and justice ever before, and why acting with empathy is the vital skill of the future. This book is a clarion call for the virtues of empathy, with a very contemporary twist.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Captivating and deeply moving.' Richard Coles'Evocative, beautifully written . . . conjures locations and feelings almost magically.' Jeremy Vine'My brain has made the decision . . . I am going to love this book.' Richard Hawley There was a time when he felt like the undisputed King of Selston.Then… again, there were several years when he was convinced that he could talk to animals and had even mastered the power of flight - sailing nightly over the headstocks, slag heaps and doggedly beautiful countryside of an isolated East Midlands mining village.But, deep down, Danny Scott knew that the real King of Selston was and always would be coal. Over the last seven hundred years, coal dust had settled on every inch of Selston. It was in the food he ate, the air he breathed and the words he spoke. It fashioned resilient men like his dad and The Texan; feisty women like his mother, whose right-hook was feared even more than her fondness for house fires.Danny was a clever bugger - dangerously clever, some said - and fiercely proud of Selston, his dad and his mining heritage. Five generations of his family had spent their working lives underground, providing fuel for the Industrial Revolution, the electrical, rail and motoring revolutions. Without it, the modern age wouldn't have been so . . . modern.But as this young boy prepared to follow in his dad's footsteps, things began to change. The Devil became captain of the local darts team. Fortune tellers held seances in the front room of his council house. And that once unassailable King's reign seemed to be coming to an end.For dangerously clever buggers, there was only one option. somewhere else, someone new.Funny, poignant and alive to the unheralded beauty, purpose and camaraderie of a village which finds itself on the wrong side of history, THE UNDISPUTED KING OF SELSTON shines a light onto a forgotten industry and the dark shadows that wormed their way into the families who got left behind.'Proper working class stories don't get much of a look-in these days. A shame, really. Especially when they're as beautifully written as this one.' Noddy Holder.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Fiercely divisive times call for radically different arguments. In our age of seemingly irreconcilable differences, argument is increasingly seen as a plague to be avoided or a contest to be won. Daniel Taub, an experienced peace negotiator and diplomat, argues that ancient Jewish wisdom offers a th…ird way. Drawing from this tradition, and from his own experience at the heart of some of the world's toughest negotiations, in Beyond Dispute he makes the case for a radically different approach to help us come closer to truth and to each other. This approach sees argument not as a combat zone but as a joint enterprise, and its disputants not as jealous custodians of competing truths, but collaborative explorers. It seeks to create safe spaces not by outlawing controversial opinions but by welcoming them, and it offers a set of practical tools to rethink our own preconceptions. In fractious times it charts a way to build communities and societies that are resilient enough to face new and challenging ideas without fear. Weaving ancient insights with contemporary research in conflict resolution, as well as behind-the-scenes personal stories of diplomacy and negotiations, Beyond Dispute is a passionate call to rediscover and harness the vital and surprising power of a good argument.
