Pour ralentir la fuite du temps, Sylvain Tesson parcourt le monde à pied, à cheval, à vélo ou en canot. Dans les steppes d'Asie centrale, au Tibet, dans les forêts françaises ou à Paris, il marche, chevauche, mais escalade aussi les monuments à mains nues. Pour mieux embrasser la terre, il passe une nuit au sommet de Notre-Dame de Paris, bivouaque dans un arbre ou sous un pont, recourt aux cabanes. Cet amoureux des reliefs poursuit le merveilleux et l'enchantement.

Что, если ваш скоростной поезд вдруг сбавит ход, свернет с магистральной ветки в лесную глушь и начнет громко стучать колесами? За окном будут проплывать заколоченные вокзалы, а вместо кофеен на Литейном в конце вас встретит заросший тупик. Противопоставляя современные путешествия и экспедиции уникальным реликтам железнодорожной истории, создатель туристического проекта Михаил Кончиц через личный опыт раскрывает феномен романтики поездов в российской глубинке.

England is a maritime nation. Our folklore and history is peppered with tall tales of the high seas: mysteries of the great ocean, the unknown world beneath the surface of the salt sea, and the liminal coast where the sea-gods meet our lives on the land. Here is a collection of traditional folk tales from the coasts and seas of England. Lisa Schneidau retells the old stories with a contemporary twist: dragons and monsters, sailor heroes and ghost ships, mermaids and shapeshifters.

Compulsive Body Spaces presents a spatial understanding of compulsion. Providing a compelling account of the lives of 15 people with Tourette syndrome, it demystifies the seemingly irrational, purposeless and meaningless character of this behaviour.

Charles Hapgood's classic 1966 book on ancient maps is back. Hapgood produces concrete evidence of an advanced worldwide civilization existing many thousands of years before ancient Egypt. He has found the evidence in many beautiful maps long known to scholars, the Piri Reis Map that shows Antarctica, the Hadji Ahmed map, the Oronteus Finaeus and other amazing maps. Hapgood concluded that these maps were made from more ancient maps from the various ancient archives around the world, now lost.
