      "George Takei ha capturado corazones y mentes en todo el mundo con su cautivadora presencia en el escena y su compromiso incondicional con la igualdad de derechos. Pero, mucho antes de alcanzar nuevas fronteras en Star Trek, se despertó de niño, a los cuatro años, para encontrar a su país natal en guerra con el de su padre ... y a su familia entera forzada a abandonar su hogar, rumbo a un futuro incierto. En 1942, bajo órdenes del presidente Franklin D. Roosevelt, cada persona de ascendencia japonesa en la costa oeste fue capturada y enviada a uno de diez 'centros de reubicación, ' a cientos o miles de millas de sus hogares, donde permanecerían durante años bajo vigilancia armada. Nos llamaron enemigo es la historia en primera persona de Takei sobre esos años detrás de una alambrada de púas, las alegrías y terrores de crecer bajo un racismo legalizado, las difíciles elecciones de su madre, la fe inquebrantable de su padre en la democracia y cómo estas experiencias sembraron las semillas de su asombroso futuro"--Publisher

      Experience the thrill of Steve Scott's epic finals match against Tiger Woods in the 1996 United States Amateur Championship, twenty-five years later! In August '96, Scott faced Woods at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club, with 5,345 players narrowing down to just two. Surprising everyone, Scott was 5-up after the first 18 holes. However, at hole 35, Woods squared the match with an incredible 40-foot birdie putt. The outcome hinged on the final hole, but a pivotal moment occurred earlier when Scott reminded Woods to move his mark back on hole 34. Had Scott not acted with integrity, Woods would have faced a penalty, potentially altering his path and denying him three consecutive U.S. Amateur Championships—a feat unmatched by legends like Jack Nicklaus or Bobby Jones. In this compelling narrative, Scott collaborates with storyteller Tripp Bowden to reflect on that life-changing moment and the exhilaration of the championship. They explore how this match not only transformed golf history but also shaped the lives of both competitors. This story offers golf fans an unlikely perspective on a legendary event in the sport.

As the protagonist grapples with these ideas, themes of self-acceptance and the quest for genuine connection emerge, challenging the simplistic valuation of individuals based on external measures.

    • Podtitul: Šalomounova tajemství úspěchu, bohatství a štěstí Autor se s námi ve své práci snaží podělit o moudrost krále Šalamouna, která nám může pomoci dosáhnout tolik očekávaného finančního úspěchu a osobního naplnění. Americký producent a podnikatel přečetl biblickou Knihu přísloví, jež je připisována králi Šalamounovi, a převedl její poselství do příručky, která má sloužit současnému člověku. Podle Scottova tvrzení můžeme v Knize přísloví nalézt rady pro řešení našich každodenních životní problémů: např. jak řešit konflikty, jak změnit nejhoršího nepřítele v nejlepšího přítele, jak překonat destruktivní síly v partnerském vztahu atd. Sám Scott se těmito radami řídil v oblastech svého osobního a pracovního života. Mezi významné osobnosti, které se řídily Šalamounovým učením, patří mj. Bill Gates nebo Steven Spielberg.
