Gros draws attention to otherthinkers who also saw walking assomething central to their practice.On his travels he ponders Thoreau's eagerseclusion in Walden Woods; the reasonRimbaud walked in a fury, while Nervalrambled to cure his melancholy. Heshows us how Rousseau walked in orderto think, while Nietzsche wanderedthe mountainside to write. In contrast,Kant marched through his hometownevery day, exactly at the same hour, toescape the compulsion of thought.Brilliant and erudite, A Philosophyof Walking is an entertaining andinsightful manifesto for putting onefoot in front of the other.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Stephen Hawking’s closest collaborator offers the intellectual superstar’s final thoughts on the cosmos—a dramatic revision of the theory he put forward in A Brief History of Time.“This superbly written book offers insight into an extraordinary individual, the creative process, and the scope and limits of our current understanding of the cosmos.”—Lord Martin ReesPerhaps the biggest question Stephen Hawking tried to answer in his extraordinary life was how the universe could have created conditions so perfectly hospitable to life. In order to solve this mystery, Hawking studied the big bang origin of the universe, but his early work ran into a crisis when the math predicted many big bangs producing a multiverse—countless different universes, most of which would be far too bizarre to ​harbor life. Holed up in the theoretical physics department at Cambridge, Stephen Hawking and his friend and collaborator Thomas Hertog worked on this problem for twenty years, developing a new theory of the cosmos that could account for the emergence of life. Peering into the extreme quantum physics of cosmic holograms and venturing far back in time to our deepest roots, they were startled to find a deeper level of evolution in which the physical laws themselves transform and simplify until particles, forces, and even time itself fades away. This discovery led them to a revolutionary idea: The laws of physics are not set in stone but are born and co-evolve as the universe they govern takes shape. As Hawking’s final days drew near, the two collaborators published their theory, which proposed a radical new Darwinian perspective on the origins of our universe. On the Origin of Time offers a striking new vision of the universe’s birth that will profoundly transform the way we think about our place in the order of the cosmos and may ultimately prove to be Hawking’s greatest legacy.

WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY BILL GATESIn this warm, insightful portrait of the Winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1965, we see the wisdom, humour and curiosity of Richard Feynman through a series of conversations with his friend Ralph Leighton.

Den 30. juni 1908 indtraf en af de største naturkatastrofer i Jordens historie, en eksplosion i atmosfæren over tundraen nær floden Stenede Tunguska i Sibirien. Eksplosionen udløste en energi svarende til 1000 Hiroshima-bomber og lagde et område på ca. 2.000 km2 øde. Eksplosionen er den dag i dag et mysterium.Danmark 2012: Den kræftsyge atomfysiker Irina tilbringer sin sidste tid på et hospice i Nordsjælland. Irina, der er af russisk afstamning, har arvet et stort materiale om sin slægt, som hun længe har villet skrive en bog om, ikke mindst om sin forfader Sergej. En mandlig sygeplejerske med forfatterambitioner tilbyder hende sin hjælp med at skrive, og hun fortæller historien til ham.Tunguska 1908: Vi møder attenårige Sergej, som oplever eksplosionen på nærmeste hold og mærker en forandring på både sjæl og krop. Han bryder op fra sin hjemstavn, rejser mod Moskva, kommer i forbindelse med den magtfulde Vasiljev-familie, hvor han forelsker sig i husets smukke datter Nadja. Han får en militæruddannelse, slutter sig til de revolutionære kræfter i 1917 og kommer senere på nært hold af tsarfamilien, skifter side og bliver involveret i de to mindste tsarbørns flugt fra revolutionen. Ad kringlede veje og under falsk identitet havner han igen i Tunguska … og så er der ved at være lagt op til en forrygende slutning, hvor også nutiden spiller en iøjnefaldende og højst overraskende rolle.Himlen brændte er en vild og eventyrlig roman, en familiekrønike, en bog om at finde den store kærlighed, en stærkt underholdende blanding af fakta og fiktion, der giver fanden i tid og rum og sund fornuft, som alligevel aldrig kan rumme hele sandheden.

For the press tour following the record-breaking release of Greta Gerwig's award-winning, acclaimed Barbie movie, producer and star Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal immersed themselves in some of Barbie's most iconic outfits and curated vintage pieces, then approached designers, from Giorgio Armani to Donatella Versace, to create looks inspired by the doll-size originals. Many of these looks were not seen as the official Barbie press tour was cut short--so Margot and Andrew worked with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot her in the looks exactly as they were curated: Schiaparelli in Los Angeles, Vivienne Westwood in London, vintage Chanel with matching Steamline luggge at the airport, and beyond..

Ward 81, photographed in 1976, was Mary Ellen Mark's first independent long-term project. Mark and writer Karen Folger Jacobs set out to document the lives of the women in this locked ward at the Oregon State Hospital in Salem-the only one in the state. Every day for five weeks, Mark photographed and Jacobs interviewed the women on Ward 81. At night they slept in an empty adjacent ward.Ward 81: Voices, an expanded edition of the original 1979 book, includes previously unpublished photographs, excerpts from interviews with patients and recorded conversations between Mark and Jacobs, as well as new essays examining the influence of their project. Ward 81 has always been considered one of the best examples of Mark's ability to portray subjects living on the edges of society with compassion. The inclusion of the women's voices gives invaluable insight, not only into the lives of the patients, but also into Mark and Jacobs' experiences and the challenges they faced during their collaboration.

Part memoir, part document of the DIY, punk-infused subculture of skateboarding as it came of age in the 1990s and early 2000s, Ed Templeton’s Wires Crossed pulses with the raw, combustive energy of Templeton’s image-making from the last twenty-plus years.Illustrated by photographs, collages, texts, maps, and other ephemera from Templeton’s journals, Wires Crossed offers an insider’s look at a subculture in the making and reflects the unique aesthetic stamp that sprang from the skate world he helped create. Templeton occupies the rare position of having been a professional skateboarder, a two-time World Skateboarding champion, as well as a photographer and artist working within the skateboard community as it gained increasing cultural currency in the 1990s and beyond. His work first gained recognition as part of the Beautiful Losers collective loosely gathered around Aaron Rose’s Alleged Gallery on Manhattan’s Lower East Side.This work, much of it previously unpublished and unseen, explores Templeton’s own journey as an image maker, as well as the lives of professional skateboarders as they spent long hours crisscrossing the world on tour, reveling in their newfound status as rock star–like figures and the eternal search for new terrain to skate. Interviews between Templeton and fellow pro-skaters and friends add compelling detail about the pressures and pleasures of life on the road, and what it’s like to obsessively pursue an art form—whether on their decks or behind the camera.

Marcus Aurelius' private notes are a significant source of the modern understanding of ancient Stoic philosophy, and have been praised by fellow writers, philosophers, monarchs, and politicians centuries after his death.

Translation of: Pour une morale de l'ambiguèitâe.

"One of the most stunning achievements of moral philosophy is something we take for granted: moral universalism, or the idea that every human has equal moral worth. In What We Owe the Future, Oxford philosopher William MacAskill demands that we go a step further, arguing that people not only have equal moral worth no matter where or how they live, but also no matter when they live. This idea has implications beyond the obvious (climate change) - including literally making sure that there are people in the future: It's not unusual to hear someone way, "Oh, I could never bring a child into this world." MacAskill argues that the sentiment itself may well be immoral: we have a responsibility not just to consider whether the world of the future will be suitable for supporting humans, but to act to make sure there are humans in it. And while it may seem that the destructive capacity of modern industrial technology means that we ought to eschew it as much as possible, MacAskill argues for optimism in our ability to (eventually) get technology right, for the future's benefit, and ours. Where Hans Rosling's Factfulness and Rutger Bregman's Utopia for Realists gave us reasons for hope and action in the present, What We Owe the Future is a compelling and accessible argument for why solving our problems demands that we worry about the future. And ultimately it provides an answer to the most important question we humans face: can we not just endure, but thrive?"--

Historisk spændingsroman om kapløbet om at skabe verdens første atombombe. LOS ALAMOS, JULI 1945. I et ørkenlandskab i New Mexico kæmper en række af verdens førende atomforskere med at konstruere det våben, som vil ændre verden for altid. Deriblandt Niels Bohr og en ung dansk ingeniør, David Adler. For David Adler bliver kapløbet om at udvikle atombomben et personligt drama om magt, hemmeligheder og kærlighed. Ligesom Niels Bohr må Adler træffe et valg i et moralsk dilemma med uoverskuelige konsekvenser. Steffen Jacobsen fik i 2013 sit store gennembrud med Trofæ, den første af en række spændingsromaner med makkerparret Michael Sander og Lene Jensen. "Er man til krimi, spænding og storstilede forbryderjagter, er man i godt selskab hos Steffen Jacobsen. Hans seje politifolk og detektiver sætter alle sejl til med risiko for liv og lemmer for at opklare de blodige, voldsomme og tilsyneladende usammenhængende hændelser, der udgør Jacobsens komplekse plot. Hans krimier er page-turners i bogstavelig forstand - og det kan være problematisk, for de er ikke korte!" - Fra portrættet på forfatterweb.dk
