    Thomas L. Friedman

    Thomas L. Friedman's number-one bestseller The World Is Flat has helped millions of readers to see globalization in a new way. Now Friedman brings a fresh outlook to the crises of destabilizing climate change and rising competition for energy—both of which could poison our world if we do not act quickly and collectively. His argument speaks to all of us who are concerned about the state of America in the global future.  
    Friedman proposes that an ambitious national strategy- which he calls "Geo-Greenism"—is not only what we need to save the planet from overheating; it is what we need to make America healthier, richer, more innovative, more productive, and more secure.  
    As in The World Is Flat, he explains a new era—the Energy-Climate era—through an illuminating account of recent events. He shows how 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, and the flattening of the world by the Internet (which brought 3 billion new consumers onto the world stage) have combined to bring climate and energy issues to Main Street. But they have not gone very far down Main Street; the much-touted "green revolution" has hardly begun. With all that in mind, Friedman sets out the clean-technology breakthroughs we, and the world, will need; he shows that the ET (Energy Technology) revolution will be both transformative and disruptive; and he explains why America must lead this revolution—with the first Green President and a Green New Deal, spurred by the Greenest Generation.  
    Hot, Flat, and Crowded is classic Thomas L. Friedman—fearless, incisive, forward-looking, and rich in surprising common sense about the world we live in today.A Macmillan Audio production.

    "I've learned that an achievement that seems to have been accomplished by one person probably has hundreds, maybe even thousands, of people's minds and work behind it, and I've learned that it's a privilege to be the embodiment of that work." — Scott Kelly 
    The American record holder with 340 consecutive days in space, Scott Kelly tells us what he experienced during a year aboard the International Space Station. His book addresses the devastating effects of long-term space travel to a man's health, the struggles with the effects of long-term isolation and the helpless feeling of being light years away from everyone that you love. Endurance serves as a testament to the power of a man's will and the immense force that space is.

    Renowned rewilder Derek Gow has a dream: that one day we will see the return of the wolf to Britain as it has already returned elsewhere. As Derek worked to reintroduce the beaver, he began to hear stories of the wolf, both real and mythical, and his fascination with this creature grew. With increasing curiosity, Derek started to piece together fragments of information, stories and artefacts to reveal a shadowy creature that first walked proud through these lands and then was hunted to extinction as coexistence turned to fear, hatred – and domination. What Derek came to realize was that the underlying motives behind our hatred were actually far more prosaic and, like most persecutions, to do with power and profit. We turned the wolf into a savage beast and saw its extirpation as a civilizing mission. But the wolf survived far longer than many thought and Derek tells of his sightings of the wolf through folklore and mythology, the records of grand estates and parish churches as well as wolf heads, both real and recreated. With bitingly funny but also tender stories, Hunt for the Shadow Wolf is Derek’s quest to uncover the true nature of this creature because, as we seek to heal our landscape, we must reconcile our relationship with it. Before we can even begin to bring the wolf back, we need to understand it. “I have loved this chase dearly and though what unfolds might be an ending of sorts, I have no intention to let this hunt cease.”?Derek Gow, from Hunt for the Shadow Wolf

    3 Hypnosis books: 
    Book 1 — Hypnosis — When we speak of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), we talk about certain rituals and mindsets the brain should compose. When taken into consideration, hypnosis can tremendously add to a person’s will to break free from addiction, take matters into his/her own hands or make the necessary life changes they have been postponing for a long period of time. 
    Book 2 — Self-Hypnosis — With hypnosis being such a mysterious phenomenon, what about self-hypnosis? You’ll read more about these strange ways of controlling the mind, and all the techniques, myths, and lies that go with it. Truths versus Hollywood images are displayed and exposed. And you’ll get a fuller, deeper understanding of what hypnosis is and how you can apply it to yourself. 
    Book 3 — Hypnotherapy — Perhaps you’ve heard of it, or even considered it. Hypnotherapy can be harmless and has a lot of benefits. So many crazy myths evolve around what it is and what it does. But you won’t be left in the dark. In this concise guide, you will find everything you need to know about the powerful effects of hypnotherapy. What if you could solve problems related to stress, weight loss, or pain without expensive medication, false theories about programs and diets, and long, exhausting exercises and plans? What if there was a shortcut that would give you a boost, that would put you on the right track to get from A to B faster than you can imagine?There is such a way. There is an effective method that has been tested and proven over and over again.
