In Surrender, it’s Bono who picks up the pen, writing for the first time about his remarkable life and those he has shared it with. In his unique voice, Bono takes us from his early days growing up in Dublin, including the sudden loss of his mother when he was 14, to U2’s unlikely journey to become one of the world’s most influential rock bands, to his more than 20 years of activism dedicated to the fight against AIDS and extreme poverty. 

An intimate conversation with Bono and Larry Mullen Jr. as they reflect on U2's remarkable journey from a school band in Dublin to international success. Sharing stories of the band's beginnings, their creative process, songwriting, Live Aid, Phil Lynott, and the Irish music scene, they offer honest insights into the ambition, friendships and ideas that shaped one of the world's most influential rock bands.

U2 discuss the making of The Joshua Tree, an album that refined their experimental sound into a more focused and powerful style. The band explain the meaning behind the album’s title, inspired by the Joshua Tree in California, and reflect on songs such as “With or Without You,” “Where the Streets Have No Name,” and “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For.” The interview explores the album’s themes of love, faith, identity, and social change, with U2 describing their aim to create music that was both personal and meaningful while reaching a wide audience.

Your success depends on how you think. The main difficulty of thinking is confusion, writes Edward de Bono, long recognized as an international authority on conceptual thinking and on the teaching of thinking as a skill.

De Bono unscrambles the thinking process with his six thinking hats.

"J'ai toujours eu un cœur excentrique." Bono a grandi dans le nord de Dublin entre un père catholique et une mère protestante, alors que les violences sectaires se multipliaient en Irlande. Il n'avait que quatorze ans lors du décès de sa mère, perte qui va façonner sa recherche d'une famille. Il a commencé sa vie avec le sentiment d'être quelconque, pourtant toute son existence sera consacrée à combattre l'idée que quiconque puisse l'être. En quatre décennies, U2 passe d'une bande d'adolescents ambitieux au plus grand groupe au monde.

The world is full of problems and conflicts. So why can we not solve them? According to Edward de Bono, world thinking cannot solve world problems because world thinking is itself the problem. And this is getting worse: we are so accustomed to readily available information online that we search immediately for the answers rather than thinking about them. Our minds function like trying to drive a car using only one wheel.

"Du hast doch 'ne spirituelle Vollmeise" - Diese spaßig gemeinte Bezeichnung verpasste mir vor vielen Jahren ein alter Bekannter, der so fest auf dem Boden der Realität stand, dass kein Platz nach oben war. Nicht jeder teilt eben meine Ansichten, muss man auch nicht. Ich kann mich weder als Esoterikerin einordnen, noch bin ich eine Vollblut-Yogini. Und doch bin ich ziemlich spirituell - Ein Mix aus allem Möglichen, von Natur aus eine neugierige Person, die durch Wissenschaft, Science Fiction, Spiritualität und Verschwörungstheorien wandert.

When a group of researchers asked young adults around the globe what their number one priority was in life, the top answer was happiness. Not success, fame, money, looks or love...but happiness. For a rising generation of young people raised as digital natives in a fast-paced, ultra-connected world, authentic happiness still seems just out of reach.

«Un viaje hacia la diversidad, una reflexión sobre el éxito, el fracaso y las expectativas que condicionan a niños, niñas y adolescentes y sobre cómo podemos darles la posibilidad de construir su propio futuro.» ¿Qué es el éxito para ti? ¿Y el fracaso?

¿Por qué ya no son tan importantes los libros de texto? ¿Por qué hay que relativizar la importancia de los deberes? ¿Por qué se debe educar en empatía? ¿Por qué la educación debe estar por encima de todos los gobiernos? La nueva educación es el testimonio sincero y valioso de un maestro de hoy. César Bona, uno de los cincuenta mejores maestros del mundo según el Global Teacher Prize, el llamado Premio Nobel de los profesores, nos aclara en este libro que ser maestro no es acomodar a los alumnos a unos planes de estudio: todo educador debe adaptarse al motor imparable y entusiasmado de un niño.
