    Yehudi Menuhin je všeobecne považovaný za jedného z najväčších huslistov 20. storočia. Svojím umením očaril publikum po celom svete. Okrem hudby sa tiež zaslúžil o popularizáciu jogy na Západe, keď v 50. rokoch 20. storočia sprostredkoval učenie B.K.S. Iyengara v Európe. Jeho celoživotné dedičstvo obohacuje svet hudby aj oblasť osobného rozvoja.

      Generally agreed to be one of the most important contributors to Art Nouveau, the Czech artist Alphonse Mucha was trained, celebrated and lived most of his life in Paris. His unforgettably iconic images of Sarah Bernhardt and others embody the spirit of the fin de siècle. But underneath his successful career as an artist and poster designer lay a passionate Slav nationalist whose most important and long neglected works are still being painstakingly restored and exhibited in the Czech republic. This book is the first comprehensive overview of his life and work and is published in association with the Mucha Museum in Prague.

      The inspiring autobiography of one of the greatest musicians of the twentieth century.

In the following years his career was to take him all over the world, playing with leading conductors and orchestras. Menuhin was equally recognized for his committed humanitarianism, exemplified by the championship of young musicians and his work for international understanding. Unfinished Journey reflects the many and varied interests of one of the most gifted musicians and original intellects of the 20th century.
