Lacná kniha Rich People Problems (-70%)
Kevin Kwan, bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians (soon to be a MAJOR MOTION PICTURE starring Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh and Gemma Chan) and China Rich Girlfriend, is back with an uproarious new novel of a family riven by fortune, an ex-wife driven psychotic with jealousy, a battle royal fought through couture gown sabotage, and the heir to one of Asia's greatest fortunes locked out of his inheritance.
When Nicholas Young hears that his grandmother, Su Yi, is on her deathbed, he rushes to be by her bedside—but he's not alone. The entire Shang-Young clan has convened from all corners of the globe to stake claim on their matriarch’s massive fortune. With each family member vying to inherit Tyersall Park—a trophy estate on 64 prime acres in the heart of Singapore—Nicholas’s childhood home turns into a hotbed of speculation and sabotage. As her relatives fight over heirlooms, Astrid Leong is at the center of her own storm, desperately in love with her old sweetheart Charlie Wu, but tormented by her ex-husband—a man hell bent on destroying Astrid’s reputation and relationship. Meanwhile Kitty Pong, married to China’s second richest man, billionaire Jack Bing, still feels second best next to her new step-daughter, famous fashionista Colette Bing. A sweeping novel that takes us from the elegantly appointed mansions of Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, from a kidnapping at Hong Kong’s most elite private school to a surprise marriage proposal at an Indian palace, caught on camera by the telephoto lenses of paparazzi, Kevin Kwan's hilarious, gloriously wicked new novel reveals the long-buried secrets of Asia's most privileged families and their rich people problems.

Rich People Problems
When Nicholas Young hears that his grandmother, Su Yi, is on her deathbed, he rushes to be by her bedside--but he's not alone. It seems the entire Shang-Young clan has convened from all corners of the globe, ostensibly to care for their matriarch but truly to stake claim on the massive fortune that Su Yi controls. With each family member secretly fantasizing about getting the keys to Tyersall Park--a trophy estate on 64 prime acres in the heart of Singapore--the place becomes a hotbed of intrigue and Nicholas finds himself blocked from entering the premises. As relatives claw over heirlooms, Astrid Leong is at the center of her own storm, desperately in love with her old sweetheart Charlie Wu, but tormented by his ex-wife--a woman hell bent on destroying Astrid's reputation and relationship. Meanwhile Kitty Pong, married to billionaire Jack Bing, finds a formidable opponent in his fashionista daughter, Colette. A sweeping novel that takes us from the elegantly appointed mansions of Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, from a schoolyard kidnapping to a gold-leaf dance floor spattered with blood, Kevin Kwan's gloriously wicked new novel reveals the long-buried secrets and rich people problems of Asia's most privileged families.

Jenom ne Rich
Před sedmi lety jsme si kamarádkami slíbily, že bez ohledu na to, co se stane, nikdy nebudeme chodit s bratry Kingovými. I kdyby se z nich stali megaslavní, nádherní, srdcervoucí miliardáři. I kdyby se připlazili na kolenou a prosili o odpuštění.
Ale hádejte, kdo nám právě přiletěl soukromým letadlem zpátky do našich životů? A hádejte, kdo se objevil hned první den v mé nové práci? Richard. King. Naštěstí Richardovi trvá jen dvě sekundy, než ukáže, že se vůbec nezměnil. Namyšlený. Suverénní. Hrubý. Bohužel je také tak nádherný, až to hraničí s pohoršením – s čelistí, ze které by i sochy spadly z podstavců, a s úsměvem, který mi zkratoval mozek.
Roky si bere, co chce. Pochybuju, že by toužil po něčem jiném – kromě mě. V žádném případě mu nedovolím, aby se mi zase zapletl do života. Moje kamarádky by mi to nikdy neodpustily. Já bych si to nikdy neodpustila.
Ale už jsem se zmínila o jeho čelisti?
Ultra-Processed People
An eye-opening investigation into the science, economics, history and production of ultra-processed food.
It's not you, it's the food.
We have entered a new 'age of eating' where most of our calories come from an entirely novel set of substances called Ultra-Processed Food, food which is industrially processed and designed and marketed to be addictive. But do we really know what it's doing to our bodies?
Join Chris in his travels through the world of food science and a UPF diet to discover what's really going on. Find out why exercise and willpower can't save us, and what UPF is really doing to our bodies, our health, our weight, and the planet (hint: nothing good).
For too long we've been told we just need to make different choices, when really we're living in a food environment that makes it nigh-on impossible. So this is a book about our rights. The right to know what we eat and what it does to our bodies and the right to good, affordable food.

People We Meet on Vacation
Two best friends. Ten summer trips. One last chance to fall in love.
From the New York Times bestselling author of Beach Read comes a sparkling new novel that will leave you with the warm, hazy afterglow usually reserved for the best vacations.
Poppy and Alex. Alex and Poppy. They have nothing in common. She's a wild child; he wears khakis. She has insatiable wanderlust; he prefers to stay home with a book. And somehow, ever since a fateful car share home from college many years ago, they are the very best of friends. For most of the year they live far apart--she's in New York City, and he's in their small hometown--but every summer, for a decade, they have taken one glorious week of vacation together.
Until two years ago, when they ruined everything. They haven't spoken since.
Poppy has everything she should want, but she's stuck in a rut. When someone asks when she was last truly happy, she knows, without a doubt, it was on that ill-fated, final trip with Alex. And so, she decides to convince her best friend to take one more vacation together--lay everything on the table, make it all right. Miraculously, he agrees.
Now she has a week to fix everything. If only she can get around the one big truth that has always stood quietly in the middle of their seemingly perfect relationship. What could possibly go wrong?
Think and Grow Rich
Napoleon Hill, America's most beloved motivational author, devoted 25 years to finding out how the wealthy became that way. After interviewing over 500 of the most affluent men and women of his time, he uncovered the secret to great wealth based on the notion that if we can learn to think like the rich, we can start to behave like them. By understanding and applying the thirteen simple steps that constitute Hill's formula, you can achieve your goals, change your life and join the ranks of the rich and successful. In this updated edition, Dr. Arthur R. Pell provides examples of men and women who, in recent times, exemplify the principles that Hill promulgated. With the success stories of top achievers such as Bill Gates and Steven Spielberg, he proves that Hill's philosophies are as valid today as they were then. If you're looking to become the next Bill Gates, this is the book for you.
Moja cesta k ultra
V októbri 2006, deň pred svojimi štyridsiatymi narodeninami si Rich Roll, priemerný právnik žijúci svoj priemerný život uvedomil, aká budúcnosť ho s najväčšou pravdepodobnosťou čaká.
S viac ako 20 kg nadváhy nebol schopný vyjsť schody vo vlastnom dome bez zastavenia. Bolo mu jasné, že sedavý spôsob života a alkohol ho úplne zničil.
Väčšina z nás by na niečo také prestala okamžite myslieť. Rich spravil presný opak. Zmeniť svoj život veľkým šmahom. Začal inak jesť, prešiel postupnými krokmi na výhradne rastlinnú stravu a zbavil sa prebytočného tuku. Súčasne začal pravidelne športovať.
V priebehu niekoľkých mesiacov sa z typického človeka stredného veku stala vytrvalostné mašina. Keď si jedného rána, po iba trojmesačnom tréningu, išiel Rich zabehať a zistil, že ubehol takmer maratón, pochopil, že by mohol dokázať viac.
Po dvoch rokoch sa dostal medzi najlepších triatlonistov sveta a zdolal dnes už preslávený závod EPIC5 - päť pretekov Ironman v jednom týždni na Havaji. A to bol iba začiatok...
Táto kniha je záznam o jednom z najúžasnejších a najviac inšpirujúcich príbehov osobnej premeny v priebehu krízy stredného veku.
Krátko po svojej obrovskej premene bol Rich vyhlásený za jedného z 25 najzdravších mužov na svete.
Objavuje sa často na televíznych obrazovkách, píše pre magazíny ako Los Angeles Times Sunday Magazine, The Huffington Post, Men’s Health Living, VegNews, Triathlete, Outside, 3/GO Magazine či Men’s Fitness.
Ide o výnimočný portrét človeka, ktorý vďaka svojej pevnej vôli zmenil svoje životné smerovanie a dosiahol až takmer ku hviezdam. Pomáha posunúť hranice našich mentálnych bariér a každého čitateľa doslova "nakopne". Život s pribúdajúcim vekom iba začína. Rich je toho jasným dôkazom.

Album vznikalo v Los Angeles a je ovlivněno rostoucí nejistotou a nestabilitou ve světě. „Pandemie, nové války v Evropě, masivní protesty a nepokoje, kolísání západní demokracie, rostoucí autoritářství, lesní požáry a další přírodní katastrofy nebo destabilizace globálního řádu, to všechno desku ovlivnilo,“ prozrazuje zpěvák Matt Bellamy. Podle něj prožíváme děsivé období, které muselo znepokojit každého. „Album je osobní navigací skrz tyto obavy a přípravou na to, co přijde,“ dodává. Nová kolekce, jejíž produkce se ujali samotní Muse, je velmi pestrá. Posluchači s emohou těšit na dystopický glam-rock, nostalgickou elektroniku i industriálně znějící pasáže.

Power, People and Profits
From Nobel Prize-winning economist and bestselling author Joseph Stiglitz, this account of the dangers of free market fundamentalism reveals what has gone so wrong, but also shows us a way out. We all have the sense that our economy tilts toward big business, but as Joseph E. Stiglitz explains in People, Power and Profits, a few corporations have come to dominate entire sectors, contributing to skyrocketing inequality and slow growth.
This is how the financial industry has managed to write its own regulations, tech companies have accumulated reams of personal data with little oversight, and government has negotiated trade deals that fail to represent the best interests of workers. Too many have made their wealth through exploitation of others rather than through wealth creation. If something isn't done, new technologies may make matters worse, increasing inequality and unemployment.
Stiglitz identifies the true sources of wealth and increases in standards of living, based on learning, advances in science and technology, and the rule of law. He shows that the assault on the judiciary, universities, and the media undermines the very institutions that have long been the foundation of economic prosperity and democracy. Helpless though we may feel today, we are far from powerless.
In fact, the economic solutions are often quite clear. We need to exploit the benefits of markets while taming their excesses, making sure that markets work for people and not the other way around. If enough rally behind this agenda for change, we can create a progressive capitalism that will recreate a shared prosperity.
Stiglitz shows how a decent middle-class life can once again be attainable by all.
