'From the legendary music producer, a savant at helping people connect with the wellsprings of their creativity, comes a beautifully crafted book, many years in the making, that offers that same deep wisdom to all of us. 'I set out to write a book about what to do to make a great work of art. Instead, it revealed itself to be a book on how to be.' -Rick Rubin Many famed music producers, however brilliant, become known for a particular sound which has its day and then ages out. Rick Rubin, on the other hand, is most famous for something else: for creating a strong safe space where artists of wildly different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. To surprise themselves, and thus the world. Rubin's true art is for helping people get out of their own way and commune with the powerful creative signal that is their birthright. Over the years, Rubin has thought deeply about where creativity comes from and where it doesn't, about what it takes to strike a deep nerve within ourselves. Perhaps above all, he has learned that being an artist isn't about your specific output, it's a relationship to the world. Creativity has a space in everyone's life, and everyone has the opportunity to make that space stronger. Indeed, it may be our most important responsibility. More than five years in the making, The Creative Act is a series of meditations that illuminate the path of the artist as a road we all can follow. It is a beautifully generous offering of the wisdom gleaned from a lifetime's work spent in the service of exhilaration and transcendence, distilled into a timeless classic that puts those feelings within closer reach for all of us'--.

Das Kreativ-Geheimnis des Star-Produzenten hinter Johnny Cash, Adele, Run-DMC, Jay-Z und U2. Der NY-Times-Bestseller Kreativ. Die Kunst zu sein ist eine weise und überaus klare Quintessenz seines Lebenswerks. Es beleuchtet den Weg des Künstlers in einer Weise, dass wir ihm alle folgen können. Es führt uns zu den magischen Momenten von Hochstimmung und Transzendenz, in denen alles möglich ist. Viele berühmte Musikproduzenten sind für einen bestimmten Sound bekannt, der seine Zeit hat. Rick Rubin ist für etwas anderes bekannt: einen Raum zu schaffen, in dem Künstler*innen aller unterschiedlichen Genres und Traditionen zeigen können, wer sie wirklich sind und was sie wirklich zu bieten haben. Er hilft Menschen dabei, ihre selbst auferlegten Erwartungen zu überwinden, um sich wieder mit einem Zustand ursprünglichen Offenseins zu verbinden, aus dem Überraschendes entstehen kann. Im Laufe der Jahre, in denen Rick Rubin intensiv darüber nachgedacht hat, woher Kreativität kommt und woher nicht, hat er gelernt, dass es bei Künstler*innen nicht um ihre spezifische Leistung geht, sondern um ihre Beziehung zur Welt. Kreativität hat einen Platz im Leben eines jeden, und jede*r kann diesen Platz erweitern. 'Eigentlich wollte ich ein Buch darüber schreiben, was es für ein großes Kunstwerk braucht, stattdessen offenbarte es sich als ein Buch darüber, wie man kreativ ist.'

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES, GRAMMY-NOMINATED BESTSELLERA SUNDAY TIMES, GUARDIAN, OBSERVER, ROLLING STONE, AND ROUGH TRADE BOOK OF THE YEARA panoramic experience that tells the story of Beastie Boys, a book as unique as the band itself-by band members AD-ROCK and Mike D, with contributions from Amy Poehler, Colson Whitehead, Spike Jonze, Wes Anderson, Luc Sante, and more.THE INSPIRATION FOR THE 5-TIME EMMY NOMINATED, SPIKE JONZE-DIRECTED BEASTIE BOYS STORY'One of the greatest music books ever published.'MAX PORTERFormed as a New York City hardcore band in 1981, Beastie Boys struck an unlikely path to global hip hop superstardom. Here is their story, told for the first time in the words of the band. Adam "AD-ROCK" Horovitz and Michael "Mike D" Diamond offer revealing and very funny accounts of their transition from teenage punks to budding rappers; their early collaboration with Russell Simmons and Rick Rubin; the almost impossible-to-fathom overnight success of their debut studio album Licensed to Ill; that album's messy fallout; their break with Def Jam, move to Los Angeles, and rebirth as musicians and social activists, with the genre-defying masterpiece Paul's Boutique. For more than twenty years, this band has had a wide-ranging and lasting influence on popular culture.With a style as distinctive and eclectic as a Beastie Boys album, Beastie Boys Book upends the typical music memoir. Alongside the band narrative you will find rare photos, original illustrations, a cookbook by chef Roy Choi, a graphic novel, a map of Beastie Boys' New York, mixtape playlists, pieces by guest contributors, and many more surprises.'Memoir, graphic novel, cookbook, photo-journal, love letter, elegy: this vast, unwieldy, marvellous book, narrated, like the band's songs, scatter-gun style by the two surviving Beastie Boys, is as original, uncategorisable and attention-grabbing as their music.'SUNDAY TIMES (BOOK OF THE YEAR)'Wide-ranging and unorthodox . . .

One of the world's most enduring works on radical simplicity - showing how less effort, less control and less noise can lead to better decisions and a stronger life. The Tao Te Ching has inspired thinkers and leaders for over two thousand years with a radically simple idea: the less you force, the more effective you become. Through brief, meditative passages, it shows how to lead without control, act without burnout and find strength in stillness. Read slowly and return often - the Tao te Ching is a book that rewards reflection and reveals deeper insight over time. TRANSLATED BY JANE ENGLISH AND GIA-FU FENG 'The wisdom in it is timeless: how to be a good leader, a good person, a good parent, a good artist-how to be good at anything. It's a beautiful read that awakens aspects of the brain in a really nice way' Rick Rubin 'The most lovable of all the great religious texts. Funny, keen, kind, modest, indestructibly outrageous, and inexhaustibly refreshing' Ursula K. Le Guin

Del legendario productor musical, un maestro en el arte de ayudar a los demás a conectar con las fuentes de su propia creatividad, llega un libro maravillosamente fraguado a lo largo de muchos años con una visión profunda de la creatividad y de la vida dirigida todo el mundo. 'Me propuse a mí mismo escribir un libro acerca de cómo crear una gran obra de arte. En lugar de eso, se reveló como un libro acerca de cómo Ser.' Los grandes productores musicales suelen ser reconocidos por un sonido único que solo ellos son capaces de lograr. Rick Rubin es conocido por eso y por algo más: por saber crear un espacio en el que artistas de diferentes géneros y tradiciones se reencuentran con su identidad profunda y con aquello que realmente tienen que ofrecer al mundo. Rubin ha convertido en una práctica su impulso de ayudar a las personas para que trasciendan expectativas autoimpuestas y reconecten con un estado de inocencia en el que lo sorprendente se convierte en inevitable. A lo largo de los años, Rubin ha pensado mucho en el origen de la creatividad: de dónde viene y de dónde no, y ha aprendido que ser artista no depende tanto de un resultado en concreto, sino de cómo nos relacionamos con el mundo. La creatividad tiene un lugar en la vida de todas las personas y todos podemos hacer ese espacio más grande. De hecho, hay pocas responsabilidades humanas que sean más importantes que esa. El acto de crear es un curso bello y generoso que ilumina el camino del artista como una ruta que todos podemos seguir. Este libro destila la sabiduría recogida durante el trabajo de toda una vida y la convierte en una luminosa experiencia de lectura que tiene el poder de crear momentos --y vidas-- de gozo y trascendencia al alcance de todo el mundo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the legendary music producer, a master in the art of helping others connect with the sources of their own creativity, comes a book wonderfully forged over many years with a profound insight into creativity and life aimed at everyone. "I set out to write a book about how to create a great work of art. Instead, it revealed itself as a book about how to Be." Great music producers are often recognized for a unique sound that only they are capable of achieving. Rick Rubin is known for that and for something more: for knowing how to create a space in which artists of different genres and traditions reconnect with their deep identity and with what they really have to offer the world. Rubin has made practice of his drive to help people transcend self-imposed expectations and reconnect with a state of innocence in which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, Rubin has thought a lot about where creativity comes from: where it comes from and where it doesn't, and has learned that being an artist depends not so much on a particular outcome, but on how we relate to the world. Creativity has a place in everyone's life and we can all make that space bigger. In fact, there are few human responsibilities that are more important than that. The act of creating is a beautiful and generous course that illuminates the artist's path as a route we can all follow. This book distills the wisdom gathered from a lifetime's work and turns it into a luminous reading experience that has the power to create moments--and lives--of joy and transcendence within everyone's reach.

'An entertaining and expletive-filled read' NEW YORK TIMES 'Shoe Dogmeets Goodfellaswith a dash of The Little Prince' ARIANNA HUFFINGTON 'Here in Technicolor is another of Hollywood's greatest characters' RICK RUBIN 'A rare peek at how Hollywood reallyworks' WALTER ISAACSON 'A juddering combination of score-settling and advice-giving, delivering memorable epigrams' THE TIMES One of Hollywood's most accomplished, feared - and funny - dealmakers has some stuff he wants to get off his chest. A lifetime worth of stuff. And secrets. And stories. And it all makes for one hell of a ride, and one of the must-read books of the year. Ari Emanuel has long been one of the most influential people in the world, but he's also something of a mystery. Part of the reason is Emanuel's job description. As Hollywood's best-known super-agent - the inspiration for Ari Gold in the classic TV drama Entourage - he's paid to speak for his A-list clients, not himself. Now, for the first time, the agent, the mogul, the fero­cious power broker, speaks for himself, about himself, and about the game of life - often at the top of his lungs. In Roll the Calls,his take-no-prisoners memoir, Eman­uel tells the incredible stories behind the signings and fir­ings, the triumphant mergers and nasty breakups, the hard-won victories and crushing mistakes. With great comic zest, and in precise cinematic detail, he traces the arc of a classic rags-to-riches career, from suffering through severe dyslexia, to clerking in the mail­room of CAA, to striking out on his own with three fellow agents, launching a new talent agency that would go on to represent some of the most glittering names in show busi­ness, including Larry David, Quentin Tarantino, Denzel Washington, Billie Eilish, Martin Scorsese and Oprah Win­frey. Along the way Emanuel was also raising four kids, fighting and reconciling with friends and colleagues, coping with a failing marriage and struggling to find love again. Shattering the mould of stodgy CEO memoirs, Roll the Callsis told in a punchy, telegraphic style, with disarming humility and ribald candour. It's a fable about success and failure, about creativity and persistence, and a masterclass in how to ignore the haters, how to overcome withering self-doubt, and, at moments of profound crisis and despair, how to be a fearless advocate for your most vulnerable client: yourself.
