A remény könyve
Egy legendás környezetvédő. Egy életen át tartó küzdelem a természetért. Egy létfontosságú üzenet a reményről.
Jane Goodall világhírű természettudós majdnem egy egész évszázadon keresztül emelte fel szavát bolygónkért. A fiatal korában Gombe erdeiben csimpánzokkal együtt élve tett úttörő felfedezéseivel és fáradhatatlan környezetvédő munkájával Jane egy szebb, reménytelibb világ mellett elkötelezett nemzedék felnevelésében vállalt tevékeny szerepet egész életében.
A remény könyvében a természetnek szentelt életútján szerzett tapasztalatait osztja meg velünk, és beavat minket abba is, hogy miért maradt mindig rendületlen a természet világába és az emberiségbe vetett hite. A könyv társszerzőjével, Douglas Abramsszel folytatott beszélgetései felelevenítik utazásai és aktivista tevékenysége megannyi epizódját, új megvilágításba helyezve korunk nagy krízisét, az éghajlatváltozást.
Sosem volt még ekkora szükségünk a reményre. A világ egyik legszeretettebb emberének a könyve megmutatja, hogy hatalmas problémáink ellenére is reményt meríthetünk az emberi természetből és magából a természetből.

Život v Kristovi
BLAHOSLAVENÁ MÁRIA OD SV. CECÍLIE RÍMSKEJ,
STIGMATIZOVANÁ MYSTIČKA
Tri dôležité praktiky formovali jej duchovný život:
-Pravá úcta k Panne Márii podľa sv. Ľudovíta z Montfortu,
-Malá cesta duchovného detstva sv. Terézie,
-úcta k Ježišovi v najsvätejšej Eucharistii.
Jej ideál: Najdokonalejšie zjednotenie s Bohom. Spoliehala sa na Pannu Máriu, aby ju zjednotila s Ježišom, v nej videla najrýchlejšiu cestu k ponoreniu sa do Ježiša.
Transgas
Osud tzv. Transgasu, brutalistního areálu na rozhraní pražského Nového Města a Vinohrad, patří k nejdiskutovanějším památkovým kauzám posledních let. V reakci na plánovanou demolici areálu připravil kolektiv renomovaných specialistů ucelenou monografii, která se zabývá významem stavby a historickými souvislostmi jejího vzniku. Na přípravě knihy se vedle historiků architektury podíleli i sami její tvůrci – architekti a technici, jejichž zkušenosti z projektování, vzpomínky na kolegy i nestandardní týmovou spolupráci dávají vědeckému zhodnocení další rozměr živé osobní výpovědi. V souvislosti s přípravou publikace se autorskému kolektivu naskytla jedinečná příležitost zdokumentovat areál před jeho zánikem. Významnou měrou se proto věnuje stavebně historickému rozboru stavby, text doprovází bohatý fotografický materiál, který zachycuje stav budov Transgasu před demolicí. Rozsáhle je v publikaci uplatněna také plánová dokumentace. Vedle toho je součástí knihy i památkové zhodnocení souboru staveb a připomenutí událostí, jež areál provázely od prvního zveřejnění myšlenky demolice v roce 2017 až do jejího uskutečnění na podzim 2019.
Kniha vznikla jako neplánovaný výstup výzkumného projektu NAKI II, který se zaměřuje na dokumentaci a průzkum památkového potenciálu architektury 60. a 70. let 20. století. V rámci projektu dále vyšly publikace věnované nádraží Ostrava-Vítkovice, obchodnímu domu Prior / Kotva a hotelu Intercontinental.
Hounds of the King
‘One day a golden-haired warrior came riding to a Saxon village in Mercia, and tossed a penny to a boy… The warrior was called Harold, and the boy was Beornoth: the one Earl Godwin’s heir, the other a lowly thegn’s son.’For Beornoth became a Housecarl — one of that proud band of warriors who swore oaths to guard their King to the death, and who were known as ‘The King’s hounds’. A magnificent picture of Saxon England, follows the fortunes of the finest flower of English warriors, destined to serve their King until the savage hilltop fight known to future generations as the Battle of Hastings.
Pop Scars
*THE HEARTBREAKING, FUNNY AND SHOCKINGLY HONEST MEMOIR FROM ANTHONY KAVANAGH, AKA 90S POP STAR AND HEARTTHROB, KAVANA*
'My name is Anthony, but some people know me as Kavana or Kav. I've been called a pop star, a has-been, a heartthrob and a mess. I've been all of them. I once thought fame would give me everything I wanted. Wrong wish. This is my story about life as a 90s pop star, a lost decade in Hollywood, addiction, homelessness, and what it's like being an outsider, desperately trying to get back into a world that's moved on without you. But when things fall apart, it doesn't always mean it's the end. Sometimes it can be the making of you, just not the version you expected.'
Pop Scars is a story told with fearless honesty that's as funny as it is heartbreaking, chronicling the highs, the lows and the chaos of hitting rock bottom and then finding out that rock bottom has a basement.
Blow by Blow
A contender for the G.O.A.T. - the greatest of all time - Jeff Beck left an indelible mark on rock history. His sudden loss in 2023 prompted an outpouring of grief and respect from his peers that only underlined his place in the pantheon of legendary guitar slingers.
Not many could have filled the shoes of Eric Clapton in the Yardbirds, but for Beck it only marked the beginning of a trailblazing career that defied expectation and labels. From the wedding pop of Hi Ho Silver Lining through the ground-breaking proto-metal of the Jeff Beck Group, and from the landmark jazz rock recorded of the mid-seventies to the cutting-edge electronica of the 21st century Beck never stood still. Across it all, as he seemed to deliberately swerve the straitjacket of megastardom, his genius as an instrumentalist remained constant.
In Blow by Blow, Brad Tolinski and Chris Gill provide fresh insight and understanding into life of one of rock's most enigmatic heroes. Drawing on nearly thirty hours of interviews with Beck himself, numerous conversations with those closest to him, and extensive new research, they shed light on the man and musician Jimmy Page once said had "shifted the whole sound and face of electric guitar music."
Heathermoor
Still reeling from the betrayal that shattered her at Neverthorn, Harlow Daygon is in hiding.
Again.
Magically disguised and barely holding it together, she and the rest of House Phoenix are masquerading as students at Heathermoor, Neverthorn's mysterious Scottish sister school.
The castle looks like a fairytale on acid, the Fae here wield wild magic like it's a contact sport, and the headmaster might be one cryptic riddle away from full-blown villain.
But for the first time in a long time Harlow feels almost at home.
Too bad peace never lasts in the Dwimmer world.
The Grym Dunaras is still lost. The kraken gold has vanished. And Typhon has found them.
And this time, he's not the only danger. Close on his heels is a member of the Senate who'd love nothing more than to burn Heathermoor to the ground.
If Harlow can't hold her team-or herself-together, she'll lead her found family straight into a war they can't win.
Or survive.
