Unter der Sonne der Toskana. Italiens verborgene Reize erforschen

Praise for His Majesty&rsquo;s Dragon and the Temeraire series&ldquo;These are beautifully written novels&mdash;not only fresh, original, and fast paced, but full of wonderful characters with real heart. [The Temeraire series] is a terrific meld of two genres that I particularly love&mdash;fantasy and historical epic.&rdquo;&mdash;Peter Jackson&#160;&ldquo;A terrifically entertaining fantasy novel&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. Is it hard to imagine a cross between Susanna Clarke, of Norrell and Strange fame, and the late Patrick O&rsquo;Brian? Not if you&rsquo;ve read this wonderful, arresting novel.&rdquo;&mdash;Stephen King&#160;&ldquo;A splendid series&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. Not only is it a new way to utilize dragons, it&rsquo;s a very clever one and fits neatly into the historical niche this author has used.&rdquo;&mdash;Anne McCaffrey&#160;&ldquo;Just when you think you&rsquo;ve seen every variation possible on the dragon story, along comes Naomi Novik. Her wonderful Temeraire is a dragon for the ages.&rdquo;&mdash;Terry Brooks&#160;&ldquo;Enthralling reading&mdash;it&rsquo;s like Jane Austen playing Dungeons & Dragons with Eragon&rsquo;s Christopher Paolini.&rdquo;&mdash;Time&#160;&ldquo;A completely authentic tale, brimming with all the detail and richness one looks for&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. as well as the impossible wonder of gilded fantasy.&rdquo;&mdash;Entertainment Weekly (Editor&rsquo;s Choice, Grade: A)&#160;&ldquo;Novik has accomplished something singular with her Temeraire series.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. At its heart, it&rsquo;s a story about friendship that transcends not only time and class, but species.&rdquo;&mdash;NPR&ldquo;[Naomi Novik] is soaring on the wings of a dragon.&rdquo;&mdash;The New York Times&#160;&ldquo;A thrilling fantasy&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. All hail Naomi Novik.&rdquo;&mdash;The Washington Post Book World&#160;&ldquo;An amazing performance&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. [I] was immediately hooked by the writing, the research and the sheer courage of the whole enterprise.&rdquo;&mdash;Chicago Tribune&#160;&ldquo;Novik&rsquo;s influences run the gamut from Jane Austen to Patrick O&rsquo;Brian, with a side trip through Anne McCaffrey. Her books are completely involving and probably addictive, their central conceit explored in clever detail with a great deal of wit and historical insight.&rdquo;&mdash;San Francisco Chronicle&#160;&ldquo;Something new and quite wonderful&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. The Temeraire trilogy could well be this year&rsquo;s Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.&rdquo;&mdash;BookPage&ldquo;A superbly written, character-driven series&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. What keeps one turning the pages is the urge to find out what happens next to Captain Laurence and Temeraire, characters who win one&rsquo;s heart from the beginning. Bravo!&rdquo;&mdash;Booklist (starred review)

“Lesley Paterson is one of the most mentally tough professional athletes I know, and Simon Marshall knows why. Their special sauce has finally been bottled and the strategies described in The Brave Athlete promise to help athletes of all abilities become dirty fast.” —Tim Don, World Champion triathlete“Forget marginal gains, Dr. Simon Marshall understands the most important part of performance: the athlete’s mind. His expertise is an invaluable resource to help athletes master theirs.” —David Bailey, PhD, Head of Performance at BMC Racing Team“My training background and philosophy evolved under the coaching of Lesley and the mental slapping of Simon.” —Jessica Cerra, professional cyclist“I have admired Dr. Simon Marshall’s talent as a scientist and a communicator for more than two decades. In The Brave Athlete, he brings this talent to the fore as he translates psychological science into meaningful strategies to help athletes become more confident, motivated, and calm.” —Dr. Kirsten Davison, Professor of Public Health, Harvard University“At the Leeds Triathlon Centre, we pay as much attention to psychology as we do to physiology. Few things are simple in sport but in The Brave Athlete, Simon and Lesley tackle the complexities of getting the best from yourself in a clear and engaging way.” —Jack Maitland, Head Triathlon Coach, Leeds Beckett University“The Brave Athlete will take you deep inside yourself so that you can identify what you thought were your limits and, with Simon and Lesley’s help, smash them to smithereens.” —Bob Babbitt, host of Babbittville Radio, USA Triathlon Hall of Fame inductee“Simon and Lesley get to the heart of what it takes to be a brave athlete. It’s about creating a mindset that goes to bat for you rather than against you. The Brave Athlete is an invaluable guide to help you sort your head out. Plus it’s funny. Really bloody funny.” —Flora Duffy, World Champion triathlete“Marshall and Paterson, in some kind of post-Western duo, limn their own version of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday. Only the guns and whiskey are replaced with doctoral degrees and world titles. In The Brave Athlete they challenge the reader to draw swords on the psychic battlefields of sport but do so with the gift of Continental mirth and compassion.” —Scott Tinley, two-time Ironman World Champion, author, and teacher“Working with Lesley and Simon has been one of the biggest life-changing experiences.” —Mauricio Méndez, XTERRA World Champion and Ironman 70.3 champion“Simon and Lesley bring years of training at the world-class level, in multiple sports, together with years of working in academia—all in the real world.” —Janel Holcomb, professional cyclists and coach“Lesley's passion for helping others grow and enjoy a deeper sense of satisfaction with their lives is evident in everything she does. In her book, she expertly addresses the concerns and setbacks so many people face in their pursuits, and outlines a simple and elegant strategy for helping anyone become their very best.” —Ben Hoffman, Professional Triathlete and Ironman Champion“I always struggled with my inner self and demons during races. Simon taught me not only how to deal with those demons, but how to manipulate them in such a way to take my racing to an entirely different level.” —Kyle Hummel, Ironman 70.3 Age Group World Champion“The formula for this book is a winner and can be applied to any challenging situation.” —Dr. Jacqueline Kerr, Professor of Family Medicine and Public Health, University of California at San Diego“Dr. Simon Marshall and World Champion Lesley Paterson remind us that that the best kind of sport psychology is when evidence-based science meets the minds of real athletes. The Brave Athlete bridges this gap with humor and compassion, whilst revealing tenacity for moving forward. This book shows us how to cope with common demons that threaten to disrupt our performances and enjoyment of sport.” —Dr. Alison Pope-Rhodius, Professor & Chair, Sport Psychology, JFK University“Combining their experience in triathlon, psychology, and writing, Lesley and Simon are a force to be reckoned with. They’re brilliant and hilarious.” —Mitch Thrower, Founder and Chairman of Events.com, Author, and 22x Ironman Triathlete“The tools I've learned from Simon are simply priceless, and to have it all encapsulated into a book for everyone to read is critical reading for any athlete looking to perform at their very best.” —Amy Dixon, Paralympic Hopeful, ITU World Ranking: #5“Lesley has also shown me the ability to suffer like no other with the strategies outlined in The Brave Athlete. With these skills, neither family or sport is jeopardized, bringing a much-needed balance to my life.” —Brandon Mills, age-group mountain biker“Dr. Marshall has such way of explaining the human mind, in the simplest terms and why we think the way we do. Both of them were there day one when I fought the biggest battle of my life: breast cancer, and I’m still winning. Simon and Lesley are coaches who ‘walk the talk’!” —Marison Beniek, age group triathlete and breast cancer survivor
