A Number One New York Times bestseller, Humans of New York began in the summer of 2010, when photographer Brandon Stanton set out on an ambitious project: to single-handedly create a photographic census of New York City. Armed with his camera, he began crisscrossing the city, covering thousands of miles on foot, all in his attempt to capture ordinary New Yorkers in the most extraordinary of moments. The result of these efforts was Humans of New York, a vibrant blog in which he featured his photos alongside quotes and anecdotes. The blog has steadily grown, gathering millions of devoted followers. Humans of New York is the book inspired by the blog. With four hundred colour photos, including exclusive portraits and all-new stories, and a distinctive vellum jacket it is a stunning collection of images that will appeal not just to those who have been drawn in by the outsized personalities of New York, but to anyone interested in the breathtaking scope of humanity it displays. Heartfelt and moving, Humans of New York is a celebration of individuality and a tribute to the spirit of a city.

From the creator of the bestseller Humans of New York, based on the wildly popular blog, comes a picture book featuring the littlest humans.

Fascinerende korte portretter i tekst og bilde av ulike mennesker i ulike situasjoner fra hele verden.

<strong>Tim Ferriss, the #1 New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek, shares the ultimate choose-your-own-adventure book--a compilation of tools, tactics, and habits from 130+ of the world's top performers. From iconic entrepreneurs to elite athletes, from artists to billionaire investors, their short profiles can help you answer life's most challenging questions, achieve extraordinary results, and transform your life.</strong> <p><strong>From the author: </strong> <p> In 2017, several of my close friends died in rapid succession. It was a very hard year, as it was for many people. <p> It was also a stark reminder that time is our scarcest, non-renewable resource. <p> With a renewed sense of urgency, I began asking myself many questions: <p> Were my goals my own, or simply what I thought I should want? <br> How much of life had I missed from underplanning or overplanning? <br> How could I be kinder to myself? <br> How could I better say "no" to the trivial many to better say "yes" to the critical few? <br> How could I best reassess my priorities and my purpose in this world? <p> To find answers, I reached out to the most impressive world-class performers in the world, ranging from wunderkinds in their 20s to icons in their 70s and 80s. No stone was left unturned. <p> This book contains their answers--practical and tactical advice from mentors who have found solutions. Whether you want to 10x your results, get unstuck, or reinvent yourself, someone else has traveled a similar path and taken notes. <p> This book, Tribe of Mentors, includes many of the people I grew up viewing as idols or demi-gods. Less than 10% have been on my podcast (The Tim Ferriss Show, more than 200 million downloads), making this a brand-new playbook of playbooks. <p> No matter your challenge or opportunity, something in these pages can help. <p> Among other things, you will learn: <p> - More than 50 morning routines--both for the early riser and those who struggle to get out of bed. <br> - How TED curator Chris Anderson realized that the best way to get things done is to let go. <br> - The best purchases of $100 or less (you'll never have to think about the right gift again). <br> - How to overcome failure and bounce back towards success. <br> - Why Humans of New York creator Brandon Stanton believes that the best art will always be the riskiest. <br> - How to meditate and be more mindful (and not just for those that find it easy). <br> - Why tennis champion Maria Sharapova believe that "losing makes you think in ways victories can't." <br> - How to truly achieve work-life balance (and why most people tell you it isn't realistic). <br> - How billionaire Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz transformed the way he engages with difficult situations to reduce suffering. <br> - Ways to thrive (and survive) the overwhelming amount of information you process every day. <br> - How to achieve clarity on your purpose and assess your priorities. <br> - And much more. <p> This reference book, which I wrote for myself, has already changed my life. I certainly hope the same for you. <p> I wish you luck as you forge your own path. <p> All the best, <p> Tim Ferriss

A brilliant thief and natural leader, Kelsier will turn his talents to the ultimate caper: one with the Lord Ruler himself as the mark. Only he's not just planning the greatest heist in history, he's plotting the overthrow of a divine despot.Kelsier recruited the underworld's elite, the smartest and most trustworthy allomancers, each of whom shares one of his many powers, and all of whom relish a high-stakes challenge. But even with the best criminal crew ever assembled, Kel's plan looks like a long shot, until luck brings a ragged girl named Vin into his life. Like him, she's a half-Skaa orphan, but she's lived a much harsher life. Vin has learned to expect betrayal from everyone she meets, and gotten it. She will have to learn to trust, if Kel is to help her master powers of which she never dreamed.

To fester, stort dilemma ? hva skal en stakkars jente gjøre?

The impossible has happened. The Lord Ruler is dead has been vanquished. But so too is Kelsier the man who masterminded the triumph. The awesome task of rebuilding the world has been left to his protege Vin; a one-time street urchin, now the most powerful Mistborn in the land. Worryingly for her Vin has become the focus of a new religion, a development that leaves her intensely uneasy. More worryingly still the mists have become unpredictable since the Lord Ruler died and a strage vaprous entity is stalking Vin.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company. His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, Ryland realizes that an impossible task now confronts him.
