The Struggle with the Daemon" is a brilliant analysis of the European psyche by the great novelist & biographer Stefan Zweig. Zweig studies three giants of German literature & thought: Friedrich Holderlin Heinrich von Kleist & Friedrich Nietzsche--powerful minds whose ideas were at odds with the scientific positivism of their age; troubled spirits whose intoxicating passions drove them mad but inspired them to great works. Born in Vienna in 1881 Stefan Zweig travelled widely living in Salzburg Austria between the wars. He enjoyed worldwide literary fame first as a poet & translator then as a biographer." ...

This new edition of the epic Strumpet City marks the centenary of the 1913 Lockout. It has been chosen as Dublin City Libraries' One City One Book for 2013. First published in 1969 it has repeatedly been described as one of the greatest Irish novels of all time. Centring on the seminal lockout of 20 000 workers in Dublin in 1913 Strumpet City encompasses a wide sweep of city life. From the destitution of Rashers Tierney to the solid aspirant respectability of Fitz & Mary the priestly life of Father O' Connor & the upper-class world of Yearling & the Bradshaws it paints a portrait of a city of stark contrasts with an urban working class mired in vicious poverty. Strumpet City is much more than a book about the Lockout. Through the power of vivid fiction we encounter all the complexities of humanity. The brilliant & much-loved TV series originally screened by RTE in 1980 is fondly remembered by many but to read the book is to immerse yourself in social & historical writing akin to Chekhov & Tolstoy. Strumpet City is the great sweeping Irish historical novel of the 20th century. ...

Stuart does not like the manuscript. Hes after a bestseller like what Tom Clancy writes". " But you are not an assassin trying to frazzle the president with anthrax bombs " I point out. You are an ex-homeless ex-junkie psychopath I do not add. This is the story of a remarkable friendship between a reclusive writer (a middle-class scum ponce if you want to be honest about it Alexander) & Stuart Shorter a homeless knife-wielding thief. Told backwards -- Stuarts idea -- it starts with a deeply troubled thirty-two-year-old & ends with a happy-go-lucky little boy of twelve. This brilliant biography winner of the Guardian First Book Award presents a humbling portrait of homeless life & is as extraordinary & unexpected as the man it describes." ...

It was a million-to-one-shot Doc". " My hands were full". "I fell".

Stuart McRoberts New BRAWN Series

The guidance in this book teaches Course 1. Before anabolic steroids started to infest the body-building world variations of Course 1 were famous popular and responsible for building tons of muscle. But in the 1960s when the use of steroids became popular among competitive body-builders the popularity of Course 1 began to wane. Since then the routines most commonly promoted in the body-building world have been those used by physique stars who were genetically gifted for body-building and on steroids. But those routines do not work well if at all for most other body-builders. The guidance in this book is founded on the amazing progress that Peary Rader made -- around 50 pounds of natural muscle growth following 12 years of failure on other routines. Here are the three primary
characteristics of Course 1: 1) It is very effective. Its track record for producing lots of muscle growth is illustrious (even for hard gainers); 2) It is up to date. The routine that Peary used has been modernised in this book. The version you can apply is even better than the original one. (There are better training tools today and knowledge of nutrition and the other components of recuperation is much greater nowadays.); 3) It is personalised. You will be taught how to modify the routine so that it suits you perfectly. When applied properly this may be the 1 muscle-building routine for drug-free genetically typical body-builders. And because this legendary routine does not require long or overly frequent workouts it is suitable even for busy people. But be ready for training concepts
that are radically different to what you are used to. And set aside any doubts you may have. Simply apply Course 1 as it is explained in this book and experience the muscle-building magic yourself. Then you will really be a believer. This book provides the most complete up-to-date and useful guidance ever published on this fabulous body-building routine. It includes the background and history of the routine the modernisation of it the essential foundation phase the special training schedules how to train (including exercise technique in great detail) the components of recuperation (including nutrition) and two inspiring illustrations of how to put Course 1 into practice (from Peary Rader and Stuart McRobert). If other instruction has not produced the muscle mass you want why stick with it?
Instead apply the routine that is explained in this book -- it is proven to build lots of muscle mass fast. Why a New BRAWN Series? The new series complements the best-selling books BRAWN and BEYOND BRAWN. Building on the philosophy principles and methods promoted in those two classic works the new series presents premier body-building routines that are immaculately detailed rich in new material thoroughly up-to-date and proven to be super-effective. This first book of the new series teaches Course 1 which was mentioned only very briefly in BRAWN and BEYOND BRAWN although not by that particular name.
