2. Can't Hurt Me

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare - poverty, prejudice and physical abuse haunted his dreams. But through self-discipline, mental toughness and hard work, he transformed himself from a depressed, overweight youth with no prospects into a U.S. Army icon and one of the top endurance athletes in the world. He is the only person to ever pass elite training to become a Navy SEAL as well as a U.S. Army Ranger and Air Force Tactical Air Controller, and he has also set numerous endurance records.
In "Can't Hurt Me" he tells his truly amazing life story and shows that most of us don't even realise half of our potential. Goggins calls this the 40 per cent rule. His outstanding example, on the other hand, illustrates how anyone can succeed in changing that and overcoming pain thresholds and fears.

6. The greatest revolution of all time

We are on the eve of the greatest revolution ever and you can still prepare for it now! This revolution will change everything. Our money, our whole monetary system is about to die! For years it has been partly responsible for the recurring crises.
We all pay with coins, notes, plastic cards or digitally, but hardly anyone knows how our monetary system works. In 2008, many became painfully aware of this when the system suffered a heart attack and has not recovered to this day. The question is not whether it will finally fail, but when. But out of this crisis a historic opportunity was born: Bitcoin. What looked like a nerdy IT geek experiment at the beginning is actually much more: a borderless, decentralised money system that everyone has access to and that cannot be controlled or corrupted by any central organisation like central banks or states.
We take you on a journey through the history of money, show you in an understandable way the advantages and disadvantages of the status quo and explain where the future of money might lie. The separation of state and monetary system could become the greatest revolution in human history. For the first time, the trendy topic of blockchain and bitcoin is explained by a multiple bestselling author in a clear, understandable and entertaining way for everyone. It will explain step-by-step how to buy Bitcoin, how best to secure and store it and what to look out for so that you can be part of the historic change!

7. Childhood

What do we really know about childhood today?
Childhood is the subject of controversial debate in our society: Children should be encouraged as early as possible
in order to be able to compete later on.
be able to compete later on. How different children are and how many of their abilities are innate is lost sight of. Children who do not fit in smoothly are quickly pathologised, and it seems as if childhood increasingly consists of danger, illness and disorder.

Parents feel under pressure to be perfect mothers and fathers of children who are as successful as possible. Yet they are challenged in many areas: in dealing with digital media, questions about optimal support or how much freedom and how much control a child needs. This book highlights current developments and their causes. It aims to contribute to a more relaxed approach to our children - and to calm a discourse that oscillates between romanticising and perfecting childhood.

10. Generation Fear

Three technological megatrends defined the noughties: the iPhone, hyperviralised social media platforms and selfie culture. The result: an entire generation of children and young people spent several hours a day scrolling through articles by influencers and teenagers instead of playing, talking or making eye contact with other people. The members of Generation Z thus became test subjects for growing up in an environment radically reshaped by social media. What are the consequences of this experiment and how can we counter them? Jonathan Haidt addresses these questions in
Screen Children
. His book is for anyone who wants to understand how the fastest and most all-encompassing rewiring of human relationships is making it harder for us all to think clearly, focus, care for others and form close bonds. It is also a book about how we can reclaim a human life for our children and for humanity.
