Droga wojownika. Opowieści o twórcy GROM-u generale Sławomirze Petelickim zebrał Andrzej Wojtas
"Jego uścisk dłoni był niczym imadło, a spojrzenie niebieskich oczu przeszywało na wylot. Twierdził, że Pan Bóg nie lubi tchórzy. Stworzył GROM – jednostkę wojskową, która należy do najlepszych sił specjalnych na świecie. Generał SŁAWOMIR PETELICKI – wojownik, dowódca, legenda. Dżentelmen ceniący sobie honor i łobuz z szelmowskim uśmiechem. Uwielbiany dowódca, który bezgranicznie ufał swoim żołnierzom, i rogata dusza, której bezkompromisowość robiła mu wrogów. Droga wojownika to zbiór opowieści o człowieku, który dał Polakom powód do dumy w postaci GROM-u. Generała Petelickiego wspominają ludzie, którzy zetknęli się z nim na różnych etapach jego życia: szkolni koledzy, oficerowie wywiadu, twórcy służb specjalnych, dziennikarze i przede wszystkim towarzysze broni. Komandosi, którzy razem z nim budowali GROM i ci, którzy potem mieli szczęście służyć pod jego rozkazami. "
Between Past and Future
From the author of Eichmann in Jerusalem and The Origins of Totalitarianism, “a book to think with through the political impasses and cultural confusions of our day” (Harper’s Magazine) Hannah Arendt’s insightful observations of the modern world, based on a profound knowledge of the past, constitute an impassioned contribution to political philosophy. In Between Past and Future Arendt describes the perplexing crises modern society faces as a result of the loss of meaning of the traditional key words of politics: justice, reason, responsibility, virtue, and glory. Through a series of eight exercises, she shows how we can redistill the vital essence of these concepts and use them to regain a frame of reference for the future. To participate in these exercises is to associate, in action, with one of the most original and fruitful minds of the twentieth century.
