Mini Philosophy - Jonny Thomson - Bog - Headline Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

Mini Philosophy - Jonny Thomson - Bog - Headline Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

''Engaging, smart and wise, Mini-Philosophy is a diverse taster menu of ideas on life, the mind and the world. Nutritious, bite-sized portions of philosophy that whet the appetite for more'' - David Mitchell, author of Cloud Atlas and The Bone Clocks Why do people enjoy watching scary movies? Should we bet on the existence of God? Why is pleasure better than pain? And when is a duck not a duck? Mini Philosophy is a fascinating journey into what some of the greatest minds of the last 2500 years have to say about the big questions in life, and why they are relevant to us today. Covering everything from Sun Tzu''s strategy for winning at board games to Freud''s insights into our ''death drive''; why De Beauvoir believed the mothering instinct is a myth to why Schopenhauer probably wasn''t much fun at parties, these mini meditations will expand your mind (and bend it too).

Mini Big Ideas - Jonny Thomson - Bog - Headline Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

''Witty, knowledgeable and mind-expanding'' RICHARD FISHER | ''A joyful romp'' TOM HARFORD | ''A fun and inspiring teaser for curious minds'' JÉRÉMIE HARRIS Every so often, a new idea comes along that changes everything. Vaccinations. Relativity. Fascism. Can we imagine a world before the invention of writing? What would Christianity have looked like without with a concept of hell? Sometimes these ideas come along suddenly: Copernicus suggesting the earth revolves around the sun; Gutenberg''s printing press, Darwin''s theory of evolution. Sometimes they evolve over generations: the institution of marriage; the development of animal husbandry; the understanding of genetics. Either way, once the idea gains a foothold, nothing is the same again.This fascinating little book tells the stories behind 150 revolutionary concepts and explains why they are important. Taken from the realms of science, politics, society, religion and technology, these are the big ideas that have changed the world - in a nutshell.

Mary Quant - Mary Quant - Bog - Headline Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

MARY QUANT IS FASHION. Not many names epitomise an era, but Mary Quant is one such name. Her life, her ideas and her style touched everyone. Most people connect Mary with one thing - the mini skirt - that ground-breaking design that is as potent now as it was when it first appeared in the early sixties. But her influence carried way beyond those early, frenetic black-and-white years. This, Mary Quant''s memoir, is written in her own inimitable style - it''s a witty, unique account of her whirlwind life. It is a story like no other. But then, Mary Quant was a true original.

It''s December 1963 when Billy Hopkins and his wife Laura arrive home in Manchester after five years in Africa. The world has changed beyond recognition: it''s the swinging sixties, with headlines full of the Beatles and the pill, LSD and mini skirts. Billy''s youngest son still believes in Santa Claus and while his daughter''s reading Jackie, she''s not even a teenager yet, so Billy''s not too worried about the impact of modern society on his family. He''s more concerned about the welfare of his increasingly forgetful father and about the daily challenges he faces as a college lecturer. When the four junior Hopkins start to choose their own, unexpected paths in life, though, Billy finds it harder than usual to see the funny side of things...

So Help Me Golf - Rick Reilly - Bog - Headline Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

So Help Me Golf - Rick Reilly - Bog - Headline Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

*** WINNER OF INTERNATIONAL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR AT THE SUNDAY TIMES SPORTS BOOK AWARDS 2023 *** ''fascinating, informative and revealing'' Mail on Sunday Beloved bestselling author and golf aficionado Rick Reilly channels his insatiable curiosity, trademark sense of humour, and vast knowledge of the game of golf in 80 original pieces about what it has meant to him and to others, and all the reasons we love it. This is the book Rick Reilly has been writing in the back of his head since he fell in love with the game of golf at eleven years old. He unpacks and explores all of the wonderful, maddening, heart-melting, heart-breaking, cool, and captivating things about golf that make the game so utterly addictive. We meet the PGA Tour player who robbed banks by night to pay his motel bills, the golf club maker who takes weekly psychedelic trips, and the caddy who kept his loop even after an 11-year prison stint. We learn how a man on his third heart nearly won the U.S. Open, how a Vietnam POW saved his life playing 18 holes a day in his tiny cell, and about the course that''s absolutely free.We''ll visit the eighteen most unforgettable holes around the world (Reilly has played them all), including the hole in Indonesia where the biggest hazard is monkeys, the one in the Caribbean that''s underwater, and the one in South Africa that requires a shot over a pit of alligators; not to mention Reilly''s attempt to play the most mini-golf holes in one day. Reilly will admire and unload on all the great figures in the game, from Phil Mickelson to Bobby Jones to the simple reason Jack Nicklaus is better than Tiger Woods. Reilly will explain why we should stop hating Bryson DeChambeau unless we hate genius, the greatest upset in women''s golf history, and why Ernie Els throws away every ball that makes a birdie. Plus all the Greg Norman stories Reilly has never been able to tell before. Connecting it all will be the story of Reilly''s own personal journey through the game, especially as it connects to his tumultuous relationship with his alcoholic father, and how the two eventually reconciled through golf. This is Reilly''s valentine to golf, a cornucopia of stories that no golfer will want to be without.

''Glorious! Glamorous, feisty women living through shifting times. Wonderful escapism'' TRACY REES From the top ten bestselling author of The Glorious Guinness Gir ls , a stunning new novel of secrets, scandals and passions which follows the three enigmatic Guinness sisters, set in Ireland and London in the fascinating 1930s. ''An utterly captivating insight into these fascinating women and the times they lived in ... it''s an absolute page-turner'' Irish Independent ''Fans of Downton Abbey will adore this, and it would be surprising if the book weren''t made into a luscious mini-series'' The Sunday Times on The Glorious Guinness Gir ls As Aileen, Maureen and Oonagh - the three privileged Guinness sisters, darlings of society in Dublin and London - settle into becoming wives and mothers, they quickly discover that their gilded upbringing could not have prepared them for the realities of married life.For the eldest, Aileen, in Luttrellstown Castle outside Dublin, being married offers far less than she had expected;for outspoken Maureen, in the crumbling Clandeboye in Northern Ireland, marriage means intense passion, but fiercerows; while Oonagh''s dream of romantic love in London is shattered by her husband''s lies.And as 1930s Britain becomes increasingly politically polarised, the sisters'' close friends, the Mitfords, find themselves under the media glare - causing the Guinness women to examine their own lives.Inspired by true-life events, The Guinness Girls: A Hint of Scandal is a sweeping, epic novel of Ireland and Britain in the grip of change, and a story of how three women who wanted for nothing were about to learn that they couldn''t have everything. Praise for The Glorious Guinness Girls: ''If, like me, you have binge-watched Bridgerton then this book is bound to be your cup of tea'' Scribbles by Kat ''A captivating and page-turning novel about a fascinating family. Fantastic'' Sinéad Moriarty '' The Glorious Guinness Girls has already been compared, and rightly so, to Downton Abbey . The two share a delicious comfort-blanket quality, only in the book''s case, you do not need to wait until Sunday evenings before availing of its escapist properties. The story combines the intimacy of a family drama, set against the most opulent of backdrops, with sweeping historical themes. The tragic fragility of so many of the Guinness Girls'' set - that ability to burn bright, but burn fast, is perfectly captured here'' Irish Independent ''A must for all Downton Abbey fans, The Glorious Guinness Girls is a gorgeous book, a captivating tale about a young girl caught up in the lifestyle of a family that continues to fascinate - the Guinness Family. A joy to read'' Swirl and Thread
