Strategy is the craft of a warrior - Miyamoto Musashi Written
around 1645, Miyamoto Musashi's Five Rings is a classic Japanese
work on mastery in swordsmanship, leadership and conflict. Musashi
was a swordsman, philosopher and strategist, and today his work
remains of influence not only in the realm of martial arts but in
the business world, too. Musashi's no-nonsense approach to the
martial arts and combat includes eliminating technical flourishes,
understanding that technique should simply be understood as
defeating your opponent, and appreciating that the same qualities
apply in both small- scale and large-scale conflicts. Repeatedly,
he stresses the importance of learning through practice, rather
than merely reading about them. Produced using beautiful
traditional Chinese bookbinding techniques, Five Rings Illustrated
is presented in an exquisite illustrated edition with a brand new
modern translation.
Keep the page in your book with this gorgeous pack of 10 foiled
bookmarks, printed on both sides, with a silky ribbon and featuring
artwork by Wilhelm List. Austrian painter Wilhelm List was born in
Vienna in 1864. He studied there as well as in Munich and Paris,
learning from artists such as Christian Griepenkerl (1839-1912)and
William Bouguereau (1825-1903). List co-founded the Vienna
Secession with renowned artist Gustav Klimt (1862-1918), exhibiting
at the very first Viennese Secession in March 1897. The
Secessionists strove to break free of the constraints of the late
nineteenth century academic art establishment. List's artwork was a
mixture of portraits, landscapes and genre paintings, often with
mythological subjects. Magnolia is among List's most well-known
works. Its intricate depiction of a beautiful tree in bloom, with a
background of still waters has a spiritual quality that evokes a
sense of peace.

Khaled Anatolios, a noted expert on the development of Nicene
theology, offers a historically informed theological study of the
development of the doctrine of the Trinity, showing its relevance
to Christian life and thought today. According to Anatolios, the
development of trinitarian doctrine involved a global
interpretation of Christian faith as a whole. Consequently, the
meaning of trinitarian doctrine is to be found in a reappropriation
of the process of this development, such that the entirety of
Christian existence is interpreted in a trinitarian manner. The
book provides essential resources for this reappropriation by
identifying the network of theological issues that comprise the
"systematic scope" of Nicene theology, focusing especially on the
trinitarian perspectives of three major theologians: Athanasius,
Gregory of Nyssa, and Augustine. It includes a foreword by Brian E.
Daley.

The creative genius who gave us the Little Black Dress and Chanel No. 5.
Almost 50 years after her death, Coco Chanel remains one of the world's most influential fashion designers. Her story is one of creative brilliance and innovation – she was a driving force in freeing women from the restrictive clothing they had been obliged to wear for generations. 'In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different,' Chanel would say, and throughout her life she demonstrated extraordinary passion and determination to change the world around her.
There is much wisdom to glean from Chanel's self-reflections, while her sharp wit and joie de vivre will amuse, surprise and inspire in equal measure.
