Bouldering (eBook, ePUB)

sehr gut

Worth the money! Well written and practical

This is practical guide that covers all you need to know about bouldering, techniques and even its history and ethics. To my surprise this is a very well written book, it covers important aspects of how bouldering came about and helps you understand what "good" bouldering looks like. Furthermore, this is of course a great guide to use if you want to improve your technique, strength or tactics.
There is only one minor aspect that put me off: to my mind, it focuses way too much on the developments in the USA and not other continents (however, this is of course understandable considering that it is an American author).

Worte des "ärmsten Präsidenten der Welt" José "Pepe" Mujica (eBook, ePUB)

schlecht

Ganz klar rausgeschmissenes Geld und keine Kaufempfehlung.

Das Buch besteht aus nur knapp 40 (!) Seiten, der Rest ist Werbung. Die 50 Seiten sind nur (nicht einmal akribisch) zusammengeworfene Zitate des ehemaligen uruguayischen Präsidenten Mujica.
Wer wirklich etwas über die Ansichtsweisen, Geschichte und Ideale von Mujica lernen will sollte lieber "Una oveja negra al poder" von Danza oder "Mujica - Una biografia inspiradora" von Percy lesen.

Diese fast wahllose Zusammenstellung von Zitaten ist jedoch keinen Cent wert.

Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race (eBook, ePUB)

ausgezeichnet

Definitely worth a read.

In the book Reni Eddie Lodge, neatly displays why structural racism matters not only on a societal but also personal level. It's important to understand what kind of shapes racism can take and why it should not only be reduced to racial slurs in the streets. Furthermore, you get to understand why colour-blindness doesn't work, why we have to see race as an issue and address it on all levels.
All in all a very good read and definitely a recommendation
