5.000 Kilometer durch Amerika - Tim Voors nimmt uns mit auf die einzigartige Wanderung entlang des Continental Divide Trail.Als längster Fernwanderweg, der durch ein einziges Land führt, steht der CDT auf der Wunschliste jedes ambitionierten Wanderers. Bekannt für seine Schönheit und gleichzeitige Unberechenbarkeit ist der CDT ein Ausdauertest, der Vielseitigkeit und Anpassungsfähigkeit an die Launen der Natur abverlangt. Jedes Jahr machen sich nur wenige auf, um dieses Ziel tatsächlich zu erreichen. Tim Voors war 2022 einer von ihnen. Im Alter von 50 Jahren hat er die Strecke in unter fünf Monaten zurückgelegt und damit nach dem Pacific Crest Trail, auf dem wir ihn in dem mit gestalten veröffentlichten Allein begleiten konnten, den zweiten der drei Triple-Crown-Wege begangen. Sieben Millionen Schritte und die 15-fache Anzahl der Höhenmeter, die es braucht, um den Mount Everest zu besteigen, sind nur zwei Zahlen, die versuchen, diese Herausforderung fassbar zu machen.The Great Divide ist mehr als nur eine Geschichte - es ist eine Einladung, eigene Grenzen zu erkunden und das Unbekannte zu umarmen.

'Viktor Frankl gives us the gift of looking at everything in life as an opportunity' - Edith Eger, bestselling author of The ChoiceAn inspirational new collection on turning tragedy into triumph by Holocaust survivor and multi-million copy bestselling author of Man's Search for Meaning.During his lifetime, world renowned psychiatrist and Auschwitz survivor Viktor Frankl had an unshakably optimistic outlook on life. He believed that regardless of circumstance, we can all find meaning and fulfilment in our lives, even in the face of great adversity.But how much influence do we have on shaping our own lives? How do we seize opportunities and create a meaningful life? And in doing so, can we still respect the dignity of others and tolerate all views?Published in English for the first time, Embracing Hope shows that by exercising our freedoms, we have a duty and responsibility to ourselves, to others and to the world around us. This collection of timeless lessons offers hope and consolation, admonition and warning, and reveals how to turn tragedy into triumph and lead a fulfilled, purposeful life.
In the early 1960s scientists at the University of California, Berkeley set out to establish the key factors effecting health and longevity. Their results, known as the ?Alameda 7', you already know: don't smoke, drink in moderation, sleep seven to eight hours a night, exercise, eat regular meals, maintain a moderate weight, eat breakfast. Years later, however, the same team discovered an eighth factor, one that proved more important than all the others: social connection.When we form meaningful bonds with others, our wounds heal faster, we shake off infections more quickly and our blood pressure drops. We are less likely to have Alzheimer's, heart attacks or strokes. When people feel that they have strong social support, they perform better on tests of mental focus, memory and problem solving. Greater connection can fuel creativity, increase our financial stability and enhance our work productivity. But making friends can also be daunting.In The Laws of Connection, David Robson does two important things: he takes us through the fascinating science behind the effects of social connection and he unpacks the research that shows that we are all better at being social than we might think. We will meet ideas such as ?the liking gap' and ?the gratitude gap', learn to recognise ?frenemies' and discover a powerful conversational strategy known as the ?fast-friends procedure' that promotes instant rapport. Being social doesn't have to mean having dozens of friends, it can also mean having one true, deep connection with another person. As Robson shows, we can all benefit from the laws of connection.

'Thoughtful, moving and well-written' - Yuval Noah Harari'An urgent examination of the human attraction to misinformation' - Daniel H. PinkMisinformation affects us daily, from social media to politics and even personal relationships. Policing social media alone cannot solve the complex problem shaped by partisan politics and subjective interpretations of truth.In Misbelief social scientist Dan Ariely explores the behaviour of 'misbelief' that leads people to distrust accepted truths and embrace conspiracy theories. Misinformation taps into something innate in all of us, regardless of political affiliation. By understanding this psychology, we can mitigate its effects. Grounded in research and Ariely's personal experience as a target of disinformation, the book analyses the psychological drivers behind adopting irrational beliefs. Ariely reveals the emotional, cognitive, personality, and social elements that drive people towards false information and mistrust.Despite advanced AI generating convincing fake news, Ariely offers hope. Awareness of the forces fuelling misbelief makes individuals and society more resilient. Combating misbelief requires empathy, not conflict. Recognising misbelief as a human problem allows us to be part of the solution.
