The Emperor’s Grace is the story of the men of “C” Force—the first contingent of Australian, British, and Dutch POWs shipped from Singapore to Japan in November 1942—who worked in the Kawasaki Shipyard in Kobe before the American firebombing campaign razed the city, and then the infamous Fukuoka coal mine before the atomic bombings brought World War II to an end. When the Japanese seized most of South-East Asia in early 1942, they captured 22,000 Australian military personnel. More than a third would die over the next three years from malnutrition, disease, and violent abuse. The horrors of the Thai–Burma Railway and Sandakan are well documented. Less well known is the fate of the 3,800 Australians sent to work as slave labourers in the factories and mines of mainland Japan. The Emperor’s Grace is a compelling story of hardship, heroism, and endurance—and the ultimate triumph of the human spirit—told for the first time from the unpublished diaries, memoirs, and personal accounts of the men who survived.
Czy najnowsze odkrycia psychologiczne kłócą się z przesłaniem Jezusa, czy może pomagają je lepiej zrozumieć? Dr Mark Baker analizuje nauki Jezusa z perspektywy psychologicznej. W ciągu ostatnich stu lat współczesna psychologia dążyła do poprawy stanu człowieka, ignorując jednocześnie mądrość Jezusa, jednego z pierwszych terapeutów duszy. W swojej przystępnej książce, Baker udowadnia, że psychoterapeutyczne nauki Jezusa mogą wspierać zdrowie psychiczne. Autor pokazuje, jak te nauki można zastosować w codziennym życiu, podkreślając, że współczesne teorie psychoanalityczne wzbogacają zrozumienie przesłania Jezusa. Odkrywa, że najnowsze osiągnięcia psychologiczne nie tylko nie są sprzeczne z naukami Jezusa, ale wręcz je wzmacniają, oferując psychologiczną głębię, której wcześniej nie dostrzegał. Książka ta dostarcza świeżego spojrzenia na znane przypowieści, pozwalając czerpać nową mądrość z nauk Jezusa w kontekście współczesnej psychologii. Dr Mark W. Baker, psycholog kliniczny i terapeuta, jest także wykładowcą na temat duchowości i zdrowia emocjonalnego, a jego prace zostały przetłumaczone na wiele języków.
Vzpomínky Američana na jedinečný „čas proměn“ v Praze a střední Evropě zachycují poslední roky komunistického režimu, listopadovou revoluci a počátky nového systému. Mark Baker, jeden z mála západních novinářů, kteří pravidelně navštěvovali Československo před rokem 1989, se po revoluci usadil v Praze, aby pokračoval v novinářské práci a založil populární knihkupectví s kavárnou. Během svého pobytu projel zemi, aby sepsal prvního anglickojazyčného turistického průvodce po postkomunistickém Československu. Jeho zážitky byly jedinečné – od setkání s agentem StB, který ho sledoval, po fascinující svět komunistických hotelů s odposlouchávacími zařízeními. Navštívil socialistické „zázraky“ jako JZD Slušovice a vedl rozhovor s Viktorem Koženým. S nostalgií reportoval o rozpadu Československa a později vítal v knihkupectví významné osobnosti, které přitáhla Praha coby „Paříž“ 90. let. Tato doba, kdy „bylo cokoliv možné“, přinesla jedinečné zážitky, které skvěle vypráví Mark Baker.
