Transform your home and happiness with five guiding principles from The Modern House • In 2005, childhood friends Matt Gibberd and Albert Hill set out to convince people of the power of good design and its ability to influence our wellbeing. They founded The Modern House - in equal parts an estate agency, a publisher and a lifestyle brand - and went on to inspire a generation to live more thoughtfully and beautifully at home • As The Modern House grew, Matt and Albert came to realise that the most successful homes they encountered - from cleverly conceived studio flats to listed architectural masterpieces - had been designed with attention to the same timeless principles: Space, Light, Materials, Nature and Decoration • In this lavishly illustrated book, Matt tells the stories of these remarkable living spaces and their equally remarkable owners, and demonstrates how the five principles can be applied to your own space in ways both large and small

Gerd Gigerenzer's Reckoning with Risk: Learning to Live with Uncertainty illustrates how we can learn to make sense of statistics and turn ignorance into insight • However much we want certainty in our lives, it feels as if we live in an uncertain and dangerous world. But are we guilty of wildly exaggerating the chances of some unwanted event happening to us? Are we misled by our ignorance of the reality of risk? • Far too many of us, argues Gerd Gigerenzer, are hampered by our own innumeracy, while statistics are often presented to us in highly confusing ways. With real world examples, such as the incidence of errors in tests for breast cancer or HIV, or in DNA fingerprinting, and the manipulation of statistics for evidence in court, he shows that our difficulty in thinking about numbers can easily be overcome

Датское слово hygge — одно из тех красивых слов, которые нельзя дословно перевести на русский. По смыслу оно близко к понятиям «комфорт», «уют», «тепло» или «единение» • Это то чувство, которое вы испытываете, лежа в теплых вязаных носках на диване перед камином в обнимку с любимым человеком, когда на улице темно и холодно. Это то чувство, когда ты делишься вкусной, теплой едой со своими самыми близкими друзьями при свете свечей и ведёшь непринужденную беседу. Это те холодные утра с ясным голубым небом, когда из окна падает идеальный солнечный свет • Дания — самая счастливая страна в мире, и Майк объясняет это в основном тем, что они живут по принципу hygge. Они уделяют внимание важным мелочам, проводят больше времени с друзьями и семьёй, наслаждаются жизнью
