This is his story.In 1938, 29-year-old 'Nicky' cancelled a ski holiday and instead spent 9 months masterminding a seemingly impossible plan to rescue hundreds of children and find them homes in the UK. There are around 6000 people who are alive today because of him.What motivated an ordinary man to do something so extraordinary? This book, written by his daughter, Barbara, explores the 106-year life of an incredible humanitarian, a man whose astounding feats only came to public light decades later.

Kaum eine Künstlerin stieg so kometenhaft in der Kunstgeschichte auf wie die mexikanische Malerin Frida Kahlo (1907-1954). Ihr unverwechselbares Antlitz hielt sie in über fünfzig außergewöhnlichen Selbstporträts fest, die seit Generationen bewundert werden. Diese Werke und zahlreiche Aufnahmen namhafter Fotokünstler wie Manuel und Lola Álvarez Bravo, Nickolas Muray und Martin Munkácsi machten Frida Kahlo zu einer Ikone der Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts. Nach einem Unfall in ihrer frühen Jugend entschied sich Frida, Malerin zu werden. Ihre Heirat mit Diego Rivera im Jahr 1929 katapultierte sie an die Spitze der Kunstszene, nicht nur in Mexiko, sondern auch in den Vereinigten Staaten und in Europa. Kein geringerer als André Breton lobte ihr Werk und nahm die Malerin in den internationalen Kreis der Surrealisten auf . 1939 stellte er ihre Arbeiten in Paris aus, wo Picasso, Kandinsky und Duchamp sie bewunderten. Dieser Band bietet Gelegenheit, Frida Kahlos Gemälden nahe wie nie zuvor zu kommen - in brillanten Reproduktionen und im Zusammenspiel mit berühmten Fotografien. Das Buch präsentiert Werke aus Privatsammlungen, die für die breite Öffentlichkeit schwer zugänglich sind, und zeigt Arbeiten, die bislang als verschollen galten oder seit mehr als 80 Jahren nicht mehr ausgestellt waren . Zeichnungen, Tagebuchseiten sowie eine umfangreich illustrierte Biografie mit Fotos von Frida, Diego und der Casa Azul - ihrem Zuhause - erlauben einen intimen Einblick in Frida Kahlos Leben und ihr künstlerisches Universum .
"An excellent body of practice for those wishing to explore the vast depths of the magic of the Solomonic pentacles." --David Rankine, author of The Grimoire Encyclopaedia The Key of Solomon is a family of closely related historic grimoires legendarily attributed to Solomon, the biblical Magician King. Most famously, Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers's 1889 English edition presented forty-four Hebrew seals, commonly called the "planetary pentacles." However, it offered very little guidance for how to work with them. Sara L. Mastros, a leading teacher and practitioner of magic, translates and interprets each of these pentacles and presents practical methods for working with their magical powers, creating a clear, accessible user's guide. "Sara Mastros has provided a deep dive into the forty-four pentacles as codified by Mathers. Drawing on a wide variety of sources and her own experiences, she includes many easy-to-follow exercises for exploring them." --Joseph Peterson, author of The Secrets of Solomon In The Sorcery of Solomon, Mastros places The Key of Solomon in a historical and folkloric context, presenting a complete, fresh translation of the forty-four pentacles, all of which have been newly illustrated. She guides the reader through the process of working with Solomonic pentacles and more. Primarily intended for intermediate-level magicians who already have a basic knowledge of spellcraft, The Sorcery of Solomon is also appropriate for beginners who are willing to do a bit of extra "homework." "Sara Mastros manages to illuminate the past history of the pentacles while shining a light forward into the future with clear and thoughtful instruction. Not only does she fully explain the design of each pentacle, correcting many errors along the way, but she shares advice and insight gained from her own work. The Sorcery of Solomon delivers what it promises: a fully workable system of magic." --Jason Miller, author of Protection and Reversal Magic

"On January 6, 2021, America watched in horror as a violent mob led by right-wing extremist groups stormed the U.S. Capitol in support of then-President Donald Trump. It was one of the darkest days in recent history, yet to former Illinois Congressman Adam Kinzinger it was also the culmination of a cultural and political rupture he'd known had long been building. Despite vitriol from the media, fellow colleagues, even members of his own family, Kinzinger became one of only two Republican members to join the House select committee to investigate the January 6 Capitol riots. [Here he] draws from his own personal story of faith, military service, and politics to unpack his most crucial decisions that eventually led him to break from his own party. Part memoir, part searing examination, Renegade offers [an] account of one of the most tumultuous events in recent American history"--
How Do You Minister to People Who Are Spiritual but Not Religious?In a secular age that offers a buffet of spiritualities focused on the self and on personal transformation, Andrew Root demonstrates the difference between these reigning mysticisms and an authentic Christian view of transformation."Root playfully illustrates how we have become trapped in the present by way of the past, and neither heroics nor introspection nor ourselves will save us. Instead, he posits an enticing, ancient transformation in confession and surrender to something beyond ourselves. A balm for those guilted by Instagram and self-help, Root's book is both illuminating intellectual history and an essential guide for spiritual leaders navigating secular mysticisms."--Erin Raffety, Princeton University and Princeton Seminary"A theological gem. This book is a primer on spiritual theology and philosophical theology that inspires readers to recover and reconsider traditions of confession and surrender. Root balances wit and humor with intellectual depth. This thought-provoking book is an important read that challenges mainline pastors and congregations striving for relevance in the secular age."--Kermit Moss, Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary"A gifted practical theologian, Root invites us to wrestle with the nature of historical and contemporary mysticism in the Western world so that we might resist a spirituality that essentially ends in the self and respond to the transformative invitation to Christ-centered relationships. Ministry leaders will benefit greatly from Root's practical wisdom."--Angela Reed, Truett Seminary, Baylor University"Root's final book of the Ministry in a Secular Age series passes on a legacy: the mystery of how a theology of the cross paradoxically offers a path for transformation of the self. At the end of his secular pilgrimage, Root becomes a mystical guide, pointing passionately at how transcendence may be found in the receptive life--a life of passive surrender and confession."--Bård Norheim, NLA University College, Norway; coauthor of The Four Speeches Every Leader Has to Know
