143,95 kr. Everything is connected. So, to understand anything one must understand everything. So too, when a 69-year-old man decides to comprehend the minutiae of an ordinary day it is necessary for him to understand his life also, which in turn entails understanding the history of the universe, though only from the big bang on. Michael Foley weaves together these three strands in the story of a transformation from youthful despising through mid-life failure to affirming age. The poem draws on history, philosophy, science, quest sagas, the film Shane and much else, addressing the perennial issues of time, mortality, love and the search for meaning, while also refreshing everyday experiences such as making coffee and supermarket shopping and. the major adventures of sharpening a pencil and chopping carrots. By turns lyrical, aphoristic, erotic and witty, The Whole Thing drives forward with characteristic energy and exuberance.

From the remains of ancient castles through to Napoleonic Martello towers, nineteenth-century forts and Second World War defences, the perilous history of Essex can be seen in all corners of the county.

Many of the military structures of Essex are mentioned and illustrated in Essex at War.

183,95 kr. As a mother and teacher, I try to do what Audrey has done for countless others: lead by example, listen intently, and provide a lamp to light the way for others as they figure out what''s best for themselves and the world in which they live. When we look back, we realize how important role models can be in helping to shape our lives. Thank you Audrey Foley, for all you did for me and so many of my friends. You don''t know what kind of an influence you had on us. Thank you,Virginia Metaxas PHDProfessor of History and Women''s StudiesThe wisdom in these sermons is at once concrete and heartfelt. They are the fruit of experience of a remarkable woman who, whatever the pressures of the circumstances, never failed to keep true north, to found her life on a clear and deep relationship to God and to what is means to be a Christian. I had the incredible luck to grow up as the woman''s grand-daughter, to grow up revering her, and seek to make myself in the mold. Her presence in my life has given me guidance when I was lost, light in dark moments. Now, in this book, her words, her eloquence, her reminders of what is really important, are set down, and others may follow her and learn from her as I have done.Lily Robert Foley PHD

148,95 kr. 'The School of Life offers radical ways to help us raid the treasure trove of human knowledge' Independent on Sunday Henri Bergson was a French professor and philosopher. Born in Paris in 1859 to a Polish composer and Yorkshire woman of Irish descent, his revelatory ideas of life as ceaseless becoming and the importance of attention, learning, humour and joy brought him incredible fame and media celebrity. Here you will find insights from his greatest works. The Life Lessons series from The School of Life takes a great thinker and highlights those ideas most relevant to ordinary everyday dilemmas. These books emphasize ways in which wise voices from the past have urgently important and inspiring things to tell us. 'thoroughly welcoming and approachable ... Perhaps the finest, certainly the most exuberant, of the volumes is Michael Foley's Life Lessons from Bergson ... If the six books in the Life Lessons series can teach even a few readers to pay passionate heed to the world - to notice things - they will have been an unquestionable success' John Banville, Prospect 'there is a good deal to be learned from these little primers' Observer
