What Would Barbra Do? - Emma Brockes - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

What Would Barbra Do? - Emma Brockes - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Film musicals: you either love them or they make you want to kill yourself slowly with plastic cutlery. Nothing has the power to lift your heart or turn your stomach like Howard Keel in fake sideburns singing Bless Your Beautiful Hide or Julie Andrews singing...well, just about anything.There are few situations where the question What would Barbra do? doesn''t have relevance in a world which is much better lived to a soundtrack of show-tunes.This is a book for people who know that* People don''t tend to die in musicals, but those who do deserve it* True love waits long enough for an element of mistaken identity to be introduced (especially if one of the couple is a Nazi)* Women carry the show.* Talented women wind up alone...* ...But they have the consolation of the torch song, which in Hollywood musicals is more fulfilling than a husband.

The Evil That Men Do - Brian Masters - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Evil That Men Do - Brian Masters - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Born of a preoccupation with saints and sinners, The Evil That Men Do is Brian Masters'' investigation into the nature of good and evil, and the different ways in which they can be manifested. It examines the fundamental questions of why we are as we are: why we are good, why we care for one another, why we can be altruistic and kind as well as selfish and cruel.According to science, we are prisoners of our genetic inheritance. Are our impulses therefore to some extent inescapable, compelling us to behave in a certain manner, irrespective of the guidelines imposed by instinct or civilization? Or can we determine our individual patterns of behaviour? Do we really have a choice?Using a diverse multitude of examples, from St. Francis of Assisi, Audrey Hepburn, Bruce Chatwin and Bob Geldof to the Marquis de Sade, Adolf Hitler and Peter Sutcliffe, from the Spanish Inquisition to Nazi Germany to the Vietnam War, Brian Masters examines this age-old yet intensely contemporary subject. At a time when civilization seems on the verge of meltdown, he has produced an incisive, thoughtful and provocative meditation on a fundamental human question.

Could Do Better! - Phil Beadle - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Could Do Better! - Phil Beadle - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Phil Beadle is a former rock musician, the winner of the Secondary Teacher of the Year Award 2005, and the inspirational teacher who wowed the nation with his unorthodox teaching methods in Channel 4 series THE UNTEACHABLES. There, his bizarre but effective approach to teaching English included Punctuation Kung-Fu, and reciting Macbeth to a field of cows. Through techniques such as these Beadle seemingly achieved the impossible by successfully drawing out the desire to learn from a group of failing pupils. Now his focus is on spreading the word to parents: every child has the ability to learn, and to do better at school. In this book he tells parents that there is no such thing as a stupid child, only boring lessons. Intelligent, unconventional, humorous and inspirational, this hands-on guide blends personal anecdotes with the nitty gritty of how to best unlock your children''s unique intelligence, and how to ensure they have the best possible chance to succeed at school.

Things To Do Indoors - Sheena Joughin - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Things To Do Indoors - Sheena Joughin - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

A wry, spirited look at being glad and young, this foray back into Eighties London explores relations between sisters, mothers, friends and lovers from the vantage point of a girl caught unexpectedly in the middle. Sisterly sharing is taken beyond the pale when twenty-something Chrissie finds a postcard from her boyfriend to her sister signed, "Kisses, Nick". Within moments she severs her two central relationships and looks boldly forward to the haphazard pleasures of an independent life. Her lyrical journey, from love-lorn waitress to self-contained mother, takes us through the pubs, parks, parties, patisseries, peeling houseboats and rackety flats of west London to the shores of Lisbon, Ireland and Brighton. But Chrissie''s attempts to escape the emotional convolutions of London only ever seem to lead to encounters that intensify rather than dispel her growing sense of how knotty life can be. Graceful, sensitive, gently humorous, Things to do Indoors captures intimately the bizarre complexity of life for those who yearn to become independent, but can''t stop looking for love.

Books do Furnish a Life - Richard Dawkins - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

''A rich feast of his essays, reviews, forewords, squibs and conversations, in which talent and passion are married to deep knowledge.'' Matt Ridley ''Enjoy the unfailing clarity of his thought and prose, as well as the grandeur of his vision of life on Earth.'' - Mark Cocker, Spectator ''Richard Dawkins is a thunderously gifted science writer.'' Sunday Times Including conversations with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Steven Pinker, Matt Ridley and more, this is an essential guide to the most exciting ideas of our time and their proponents from our most brilliant science communicator. Books Do Furnish a Life is divided by theme, including celebrating nature, exploring humanity, and interrogating faith. For the first time, it brings together Richard Dawkins'' forewords, afterwords and introductions to the work of some of the leading thinkers of our age - Carl Sagan, Lawrence Krauss, Jacob Bronowski, Lewis Wolpert - with a selection of his reviews to provide an electrifying celebration of science writing, both fiction and non-fiction. It is also a sparkling addition to Dawkins'' own remarkable canon of work. Plenty of other scientists write well, but no one writes like Dawkins... here is Dawkins the teacher, the scholar, the polemicist, the joker, the aesthete, the poet, the satirist, the man of compassion as well as indignation, the slayer of superstition and, above all, the scientist. - Areo Magazine

What Would the Spice Girls Do? - Lauren Bravo - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

What Would the Spice Girls Do? - Lauren Bravo - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The perfect gift for the Spice Girls fan in your life! ‘Lauren Bravo is one of my very favourite writers.’ Dolly Alderton ''A joyous and energetic celebration of girlhood, friendship and pop culture. If you have ever sung into the lid of a can of Impulse body spray, you need to read this.'' Daisy Buchanan The words ''girl power'' conjure vivid memories of short skirts and platform boots. But it wasn''t just about the look, it was about feminism. The Spice Girls gave a generation their first glimpse of the power of friendship, of staying true to yourself, of sheer bloody-mindedness. And the girl power generation went on to kick-start a new conversation around gender equality.We may have grown up asking What Would the Spice Girls Do?, but their particular brand of feminism is as relevant today as it was twenty years ago – we still need that fun and fearlessness, we still need accessible and all-embracing equality… we still need a zig-a-zig-ah. ‘The Spice Girls’ arrival on the pop scene marked the gateway to a modern form of feminism, all dressed up as a riotously good time.’ Stylist As featured in Elle magazine''s Best Feminist Gift Books

Do They Hear You When You Cry - Fauziya Kassindja - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Do They Hear You When You Cry - Fauziya Kassindja - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Like the bestsellers Princess and Not Without My Daughter , Do They Hear You When You Cry? tells the dramatic, compulsively readable story of a woman fighting to free herself from the injustices of her culture. Fauziya Kassindja''s harrowing story begins in Togo, Africa, where she enjoyed a sheltered childhood, shielded by her progressive father from the tribal practice of polygamy and genital mutilation. But when her father died in 1993, Fauziya''s life changed dramatically. At the age of seventeen, she was forced to marry a man she barely knew who already had three wives, and prepare for the tribal ritual practice of genital mutilation - a practice that is performed without painkillers or antibiotics. But hours before the ritual was to take place, Fauziya''s sister helped her escape to Germany, and from there she travelled to the United States seeking asylum - and freedom. Instead she was stripped, shackled and imprisoned for sixteen months by the Immigration and Naturalization Service.Enter Layli Miller Bashir, a twenty-three-year-old law student who took on Fauziya''s case. When the two women met, Layli found a broken, emaciated girl with whom she forged an extraordinary friendship. Putting her heart into Fauziya''s case, Layli enlisted help from the American University International Human Rights Clinic. The clinic''s acting director Karen Musalo, an expert in refugee law, assembled a team to fight on Fauziya''s behalf. Ultimately, in a landmark decision that has given hope to many seeking asylum on the grounds of gender-based persecution, Fauziya was granted asylum on 13 June 1996.Here, for the first time, is Fauziya''s dramatic personal story, told in her own words, vividly detailing her life as a young woman in Togo and her nightmarish day-to-day existence in American prisons. It is a story of faith and freedom, courage and inspiration - one that you will not easily forget.

What Do You Say After You Say Hello - Eric (m.d.) Berne - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

AS RECOMMENDED BY PHILIPPA PERRY IN THE GUARDIAN: ''This is about learning what adaptations you may unconsciously have built up throughout your life and how much easier it is to connect after we have let those defences go'' Have you ever met someone who seems to get their way in every conversation they have?

From the multimillion-bestselling author of GAMES PEOPLE PLAY and one of the godfathers of modern psychology, perfect for fans of Philippa Perry, Dale Carnegie and James Clear.

In it, Dr Eric Berne reveals how everyone''s life follows a predetermined script - a script they compose for themselves during early childhood .The script may be a sad one, it may be a successful one; it decides how a person will relate to his colleagues , what sort of person he will marry , how many children he will have, and even what sort of bed he will die in...What Do You Say After You Say Hello? demonstrates how each life script gets written, how it works and, more important, how anyone can improvise or change his script to make a happy ending...

An Ear to the Ground - Ken Thompson - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

How did plants get to be the way they are? Why do they have pretty flowers? How different would things have been if the wrong kind of pollinators had got the upper hand? Why are Latin names so complicated, and why Latin anyway? Why is a weed-free lawn an ecological impossibility?This entertaining book gives the answers to these questions and many more. It shows how a little botanical knowledge can bring not just better results but peace of mind, and that losing sleep over such traditional gardening bogeys as weeds, pests and pruning is not necessarily the best course. In this new edition Ken Thompson grabs the opportunity to explain why any old plant will do for companion planting - but also that it can do as much harm as good - and why planting by the moon is complete and utter nonsense.

How do you tell someone what it''s like to kill a man hand to hand, run a bayonet through his guts, or shoot a sniper in the face who turns out to be a woman? How do you explain the nine-year-old boy who throws a grenade and kills your best friend? How do you tell them what it''s like? Or about the sunsets on the mountains or the green of Viet Nam, or the sounds and the smells, and the people, and the girl who can''t even say your name, but you know you love her. There was nothing any of them could say. So most of them rode home in silence. For seven years Paxton Andrews would write an acclaimed newspaper column for Americans from the front, before finally returning to the States and then attending the Paris peace talks. But for her, and for the men who fought in Viet Nam, life would never be the same again.
