Brygg Öl
Steget från att dricka lokalt producerad öl till att brygga egen öl hemma behöver inte vara särskilt långt. Hemmabryggt öl, gjort med enkel utrustning, har potential att bli minst lika gott som proffsbryggt – i många fall till och med bättre. Henok Fentie och Karl Grandin, grundarna till fantombryggeriet Omnipollo, tar fram alla recept hemma i köket för att därefter samarbeta med ett bryggeri någonstans i världen som producerar ölet i större volymer. IBrygg ölfinns förutom ett tiotal recept på Omnipollos bästa öl också recept från Evil Twin Brewing, Sea-Goat Brewing, Helsingborgs Hembryggargille och Brooklyn Brewery. Dessutom gesgrundläggande information om hur man brygger öl, steg-för-steg-bilder och fakta för den som vill fördjupa sig i anatomin bakom. Henok Fentie och Karl Grandin driver sedan 2010 ölmärket Omnipollo. Deras öl Russian Roulette sålde slut på tre dagar och är den högst rankade svenska IPA:n genom tiderna. Nebuchadnezzar, en Imperial IPA, utsågs till Mässans bästa öl på Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival 2012 (världens tredje största ölmässa). Karl Grandin är även en av grundarna till Cheap Monday och restaurangen som kallas Pizzahatt. Det låter fantastiskt om vem som helst kan göra ett proffsöl hemma i köket. Det går definitivt inte att göra ett proffsvin under samma omständigheter. Mikael Mölstad, SvD Boken, som är den enda svenska boken om ölbryggning, bjuder på tips, råd och spännande recept. Petra Aschberg, Lantliv Mat & Vin Med en rad handgripliga och initierade recept så att man verkligen kommer i gång. Per Styregård, Dagens Industri Det bästa i Brygg öl är alla recept som du får ta del av, flera av Omnipollos öl där vi får höra om tankarna med just de ölen, men också Brooklyn Lager och en kopia av Guinness. Andreas Ivarsson, In the kitchen Det är en bok av ren kärlek till öl och hembryggning. Ofiltrerat Boken Brygg öl! av Henok Fentie och Karl Grandin – får nog räknas som en smärre succé!

America, América: A New History of the New World
A New York Times bestseller - A finalist for the 2025 Kirkus Prize, 2025 Cundill History Prize, and 2026 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction 'An extraordinarily ambitious book . . . America, Am rica reads at times as the historical equivalent of the great epic novels of Gabriel Garc a M rquez.' --Irish Times From the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian, the first comprehensive history of the Western Hemisphere, a sweeping five-century narrative of North and South America that redefines our understanding of both The story of how the United States' identity was formed is almost invariably told by looking east to Europe. But as Greg Grandin vividly demonstrates, the nation's unique sense of itself was in fact forged facing south toward Latin America. In turn, Latin America developed its own identity in struggle with the looming colossus to the north. In this stunningly original reinterpretation of the New World, Grandin reveals how North and South emerged from a constant,
Fordlandia
From Pulitzer Prize-winning author Greg Grandin comes the stunning, never before told story of the quixotic attempt to recreate small-town America in the heart of the Amazon In 1927, Henry Ford, the richest man in the world, bought a tract of land twice the size of Delaware in the Brazilian Amazon. His intention was to grow rubber, but the project rapidly evolved into a more ambitious bid to export America itself, along with its golf courses, ice-cream shops, bandstands, indoor plumbing, and Model Ts rolling down broad streets. Fordlandia, as the settlement was called, quickly became the site of an epic clash. On one side was the car magnate, lean, austere, the man who reduced industrial production to its simplest motions; on the other, the Amazon, lush, extravagant, the most complex ecological system on the planet. Ford's early success in imposing time clocks and square dances on the jungle soon collapsed, as indigenous workers, rejecting his midwestern Puritanism, turned the place

Visual Thinking
A powerful and provocative testament to the diverse coalition of minds we'll need to face the mounting challenges of the twenty-first century. -Steve Silberman "An absolute eye-opener." -Frans de Waal A landmark book that reveals, celebrates, and advocates for the special minds and contributions of visual thinkersA quarter of a century after her memoir, Thinking in Pictures, forever changed how the world understood autism, Temple Grandin- "an anthropologist on Mars," as Oliver Sacks dubbed her-transforms our awareness of the different ways our brains are wired. Do you have a keen sense of direction, a love of puzzles, the ability to assemble furniture without crying? You are likely a visual thinker.With her genius for demystifying science, Grandin draws on cutting-edge research to take us inside visual thinking. Visual thinkers constitute a far greater proportion of the population than previously believed, she reveals, and a more varied one, from the photo-realistic "object visualizers" like Grandin herself, with their intuitive knack for design and problem solving, to the abstract, mathematically inclined "visual spatial" thinkers who excel in pattern recognition and systemic thinking. She also makes us understand how a world increasingly geared to the verbal tends to sideline visual thinkers, screening them out at school and passing over them in the workplace. Rather than continuing to waste their singular gifts, driving a collective loss in productivity and innovation, Grandin proposes new approaches to educating, parenting, employing, and collaborating with visual thinkers. In a highly competitive world, this important book helps us see, we need every mind on board.

The End of the Myth: From the Frontier to the Border Wall in the Mind of America
Ever since this nation’s inception, the idea of an open and ever-expanding frontier has been central to American identity. Symbolising a future of endless promise, it was the foundation of the United States’ belief in itself as an exceptional nation - democratic, individualistic, forward-looking. Today, though, America hasa new symbol: the border wall. In The End of the Myth, acclaimed historian Greg Grandin explores the meaning of the frontier throughout the full sweep of U.S. history - from the American Revolution to the War of 1898, the New Deal to the election of 2016. For centuries, he shows, America’s constant expansion - fighting wars and opening markets - served as a “gate of escape,” helping to deflect domestic political and economic conflicts outward. But this deflection meant that the country’s problems, from racism to inequality, were never confronted directly. And now, the combined catastrophe of the 2008 financial meltdown and our unwinnable wars in the Middle East have
