Told through Ndaba Mandela's years of being raised by his grandfather Nelson Mandela, this book offers a rare and intimate insight into man behind the myth. Ndaba narrates his coming-of-age story within the framework of his grandfather's advice, understanding Mandela's much-loved proverbs as guidelines on how to become the people we want to be:Always choose compassion over contemptAssumptions make us look profoundly foolishShouting the loudest has never made anyone rightAnger has its place, even in a kind heartIn many ways, Ndaba has spent a lifetime reconciling the legend of Nelson Mandela with the man who was his grandfather, and interpreting these life-lessons as he, in turn, began to build a family. Here, Ndaba shares with us the memories he has of his grandfather - charming, real and sometimes surprising, they are lessons we can all learn from.

On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy died, and the world changed. What if you could change it back? Stephen King’s heart-stoppingly dramatic new novel is about a man who travels back in time to prevent the JFK assassination—a thousand page tour de force.Following his massively successful novel Under the Dome, King sweeps readers back in time to another moment—a real life moment—when everything went wrong: the JFK assassination. And he introduces readers to a character who has the power to change the course of history.Jake Epping is a thirty-five-year-old high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who makes extra money teaching adults in the GED program. He receives an essay from one of the students—a gruesome, harrowing first person story about the night 50 years ago when Harry Dunning’s father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a hammer. Harry escaped with a smashed leg, as evidenced by his crooked walk.Not much later, Jake’s friend Al, who runs the local diner, divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to 1958. He enlists Jake on an insane—and insanely possible—mission to try to prevent the Kennedy assassination. So begins Jake’s new life as George Amberson and his new world of Elvis and JFK, of big American cars and sock hops, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake’s life—a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time.A tribute to a simpler era and a devastating exercise in escalating suspense, 11/22/63 is Stephen King at his epic best.

Dear Reader, You've probably heard that my wife has left me. Rachel's pregnant and she says she can't handle the stress in our household anymore. My thirteen-year-old daughter, Jolene, is jealous of her. Maybe it's my fault. As a widower I spoiled her- Jolene was reading over my shoulder just now and says that's not true. She claims Rachel ruined everything. But that's not true. The real question is: How can I get my wife back? I don't even know where she is. She's not with Teri Polgar or any of her other friends from the salon. The other question is...when will Jolene grow up and stop acting like such a brat? I'm not the only one in town with problems. Linc Wyse's father-in-law is trying to destroy his business. And you know Charlotte Rhodes? Seems she's becoming forgetful and the family's worried about her and Ben. Lots of other stuff going on-but Rachel is better at keeping up with it than I am. If you have any idea where my wife is, give me a call. Please.
111 fränkische Biergärten, die man gesehen haben muss

Schamlos, wie der Münchner nun einmal ist, will er der Welt glauben machen, dass er ihn erfunden hat: den Biergarten. Dabei weiß doch jeder: Das Copyright liegt in Franken! Dort trieben schon vor Jahrhunderten findige Braumeister Vorratsräume in den Untergrund, in denen das Bier auch den Sommer über kühl bleibt. Heute wie damals strömten die Durstigen zu ihren Kellern und lassen sich ein, zwei, drei und noch mehr Seidla einschenken. Von April bis Oktober sitzt ganz Franken draußen im Schatten uralter Linden. Wo, das muss man wissen. Denn gerade die Klassiker unter den Biergärten liegen außerhalb von Städtchen und Dörfern, in denen die Wirtshäuser während der Saison geschlossen sind.
Die Slowakei ist ein Land für Naturliebhaber, Outdoor-Enthusiasten und Landschaftsgourmets. Weithin bekannt ist die wunderschöne Tatra, das kleinste Hochgebirge der Welt, aber die eigentlichen Schätze liegen in den weiten und wenig besuchten karpatischen Bergwäldern, in denen die großen Beutegreifer bis heute wie eh und je frei umherstreifen.Die Slowakei wartet weltweit mit der höchsten Dichte an Burgen auf, die dazu noch imposant über Flüssen und Tälern thronen. Etwas zum Entdecken und Staunen sind die vielen kleinen, manchmal verschlafenen und häufig malerischen Kleinstädte, wie zum Beispiel Banská Stiavnica und Bardejov, die in die UNESCO-Welterbeliste aufgenommen wurden.Jörn Kaufhold, der seit 2007 in der Slowakei lebt, entschlüsselt in 111 Geschichten uralte slawische Runen und aktuelle Busfahrpläne, nimmt den Leser mit auf geschichtsträchtige Gipfel sowie auf ein gutes Glas Johannisbeerwein und erklärt, warum man gelegentlich sieben Mal Nein sagen muss.
Die SG Dynamo Dresden ist ein Verein, den man einfach lieben muss. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Vereinen, die bereits im März ihre bis Mai aufgetragenen Saisonaufgaben beenden und dann halt neue Rekorde aufstellen müssen, um das Fußvolk zu erfreuen, weiß man bei uns nie, ob das aktuelle Spieljahr aufgrund von ständigen finanziellen Engpässen vielleicht auch gleich das letzte sein wird. Unser Geld, das wir nicht haben, geben wir denen, die es gar nicht so dringend brauchen!§In unserer glanzvollen Geschichte haben wir viele verschiedene Ligen kennengelernt. Wir haben Pokale in die Höhe gestemmt und sind durch die Hölle gegangen. Wir haben uns mit den besten Mannschaften Europas gemessen und gegen Dresdner Stadtteilvereine verloren. Man hat uns den DFB-Pokal genommen, wir haben den FDGB-Pokal reaktiviert. Wir waren mehrfach klinisch tot und sind doch immer wieder aufgestanden. Man schreibt uns immer wieder ab, aber wir kehren zurück! Wir sind 61 Jahre alt und noch kein bisschen weise. Wir sind die SG Dynamo Dresden!§EINIGE GRÜNDEWeil wir die erste Mannschaft waren, die in einem Pflichtspiel in der neuen Münchner Arena gewonnen hat. Weil wir am größten Fußballspiel aller Zeiten teilgenommen haben. Weil wir 2006 Absteiger der Herzen waren. Weil wir die größte Blockfahne Deutschlands unser Eigen nennen. Weil wir bewiesen haben, dass die Geschichte mit den elf Freunden kein Märchen sein muss. Weil wir zweistellig gewinnen können. Weil die Fans auch nach Mitternacht alles für Dynamo geben. Weil alles eine Schlagzeile wird, was mit Dynamo zu tun hat. Weil wir für Sensationen sorgen können. Weil Marek Penksa in seiner Dresdner Zeit die im-PO-santeste Gelbe Karte erhalten hat. Weil der K-Block immer ein Erlebnis ist. Weil unser Verein bereits mit drei Monaten erstmals Meister der DDR-Oberliga war. Weil wir immer mal wieder gern an uns selbst scheitern. Weil unser ehemaliger Hauptgeschäftsführer Volkmar Köster im Herbst 2005 auch nur ein Mensch war. Weil unser Skandalpräsident Otto auch im Knast noch über dem Stadion präsent war. Weil wir im laufenden Spielbetrieb unser Stadion um 20 Meter verschoben haben. Weil der allererste Drittligatorschütze ein Dresdner ist. Weil das KICKER-Sonderjahresheft jahrelang Torsten Gütschow missachtet hat. Weil sich Dynamo und der DFB eigentlich ganz lieb haben. Weil uns Punktabzüge nicht aufhalten können.
111 GRÜNDE, POLEN ZU LIEBEN ist eine ebenso witzige wie hintergründige Liebeserklärung des Schriftstellers Matthias Kneip an Deutschlands östliches Nachbarland und seine Menschen. Humorvoll und augenzwinkernd nimmt Kneip den Leser mit auf eine sehr persönliche Reise durch das Land zwischen Oder und Bug, ohne dabei den Blick für die Realitäten zu verlieren. Wussten Sie beispielsweise, dass Polen mit dem Meer verheiratet ist? Oder dass der größte Gartenzwerg der Welt im polnischen Nowa Sżl zu finden ist? Neben kuriosen Sehenswürdigkeiten widmet Kneip sich auch den Eigenheiten der polnischen Mentalität oder besonderen Werken polnischer Kultur. Selbstverständlich darf bei einer solchen Liebeserklärung der Blick in den nationalen Kochtopf nicht fehlen! Auch polnische Geschichte und Traditionen begleiten den Leser auf dieser literarischen Reise durch ein Land, das zu entdecken sich lohnt. Aktualisierte und erweiterte Neuausgabe

Unfortunately for the Touga Clan, Eita has no interest in taking over the family business.

That is until one fateful day, a mysterious harpy girl kicks in the door to his family dojo and spirits Eita away to a world full of monsters and mythological creatures.

When we think of great events in the history of the world, we tend to think of war, revolution, political upheaval or natural catastrophe. But throughout history there have been moments of vital importance that have taken place not on the battlefield, or in the palaces of power, or even in the violence of nature, but between the pages of a book. In our digitised age of instant information it is easy to underestimate the power of the printed word. In his fascinating new book accompanying the ITV series, Melvyn Bragg presents a vivid reminder of the book as agent of social, political and personal revolution. Twelve Books that Changed the World presents a rich variety of human endeavour and a great diversity of characters. There are also surprises. Here are famous books by Darwin, Newton and Shakespeare - but we also discover the stories behind some less well-known works, such as Marie Stopes' Married Love, the original radical feminist Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman - and even the rules to an obscure ball game that became the most popular sport in the world ...
