Rebel women between the wars
An inspiring group biography of thirteen intrepid women who challenged the status quo in interwar Britain. What did it mean to be a ‘rebel woman’ in the interwar years? Historian Sarah Lonsdale traces the struggles, passions and achievements of a set of fearlessly determined women who stopped at nothing to make their mark in the traditionally masculine environments of mountaineering, politics, engineering and journalism. From the motorist Claudia Parsons to the ‘star’ reporter Margaret Lane, the mountaineer Dorothy Pilley and the journalist Shiela Grant Duff, the women charted in this book challenged the status quo in all walks of life, alongside writing vivid, eye-witness accounts of their adventures. Recovering their voices across a range of texts, including novels, poems, journalism and diaries, Rebel women between the wars reveals the inch-by-inch gains these women won through courageous and sometimes controversial acts. -- .
Where the Earth Meets the Sky
Antarctica is a land of extremes: the coldest, windiest and most remote place on Earth – and now one of the most vulnerable to climate change. On isolated Ross Island – from where legendary explorers Scott and Shackleton once set out for the South Pole – conservation scientist Louise K. Blight travels south to live and work at the edge of the world. There, alongside one of the world’s great Antarctic scientists, she documents how the planet’s largest iceberg is transforming the lives of Antarctica’s penguins. Amid blizzards, endless daylight and the stark, hypnotic beauty of the ice, Louise observes the rhythms of penguin life and the small and eccentric human community that shares this inhospitable place. As days are shaped by weather, waiting and survival, Antarctica becomes both a physical and emotional testing ground, its vast silences offering space for reflection. Interwoven with stories of early explorers and modern-day Antarcticans, and enlivened by humorous and touching portraits of the penguins she studies, Where the Earth Meets the Sky is a powerful meditation on solitude, resilience and renewal – and a vivid testament to how the harshest landscape on Earth profoundly alters those who enter it.

Survival at Treblinka
On August 2, 1943, prisoners at the Nazi extermination camp Treblinka, located in occupied Poland, launched an uprising against their captors, during which hundreds successfully escaped while guards killed as many in the process. In this groundbreaking work, Chad S.A. Gibbs draws upon recently discovered sources and novel research methods to fundamentally reassess Jewish resistance at Treblinka—both before and during the revolt. Using the testimonies of revolt survivors, prior escapees, those who passed through the camp, and a handful of bystander witnesses and former SS guards, Gibbs sheds new light on the events of August 2 as well as many prior acts of resistance. Critical to these new interpretations of the revolt are the actions of women prisoners, who here assume a central place in this story for the first time.

Alibi
Alibi is a gritty chronicle of crime detection in the 1980s that centres on a real-life unsolved double murder. Following these tragic events in the lives of would-be international drug dealers, this masterful blend of fact and fiction captures the everyday mayhem of a free-wheeling ‘punishment’ outpost of London’s Metropolitan Police. When Alan Jackaman was posted to Clapham — a dumping ground for wayward members of the CID — crimes were solved not by DNA and CCTV but by a rag-tag collection of detectives, many of whom preferred banter and a lunchtime pint to doing things by the book. Within this chaotic, old-school environment, the Murder Squad was tasked with untangling the web of subterfuge and deception spun by the chief suspect. This book challenges the reader to look beneath the murky surface, consider the evidence, and say what really happened on that horrific summer night in South London four decades ago. Foreword by Rae Price Whose life was forever altered by the tragedy.

Strangers Within
A comprehensive study of the New Christian elite of Jewish origin—prominent traders, merchants, bankers and men of letters—between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuriesIn Strangers Within, Francisco Bethencourt provides the first comprehensive history of New Christians, the descendants of Jews forced to convert to Catholicism in late medieval Spain and Portugal. Bethencourt estimates that there were around 260,000 New Christians by 1500—more than half of Iberia’s urban population. The majority stayed in Iberia but a significant number moved throughout Europe, Africa, the Middle East, coastal Asia and the New World. They established Sephardic communities in North Africa, the Ottoman Empire, Italy, Amsterdam, Hamburg and London. Bethencourt focuses on the elite of bankers, financiers and merchants from the fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries and the crucial role of this group in global trade and financial services. He analyses their impact on religion (for example, Teresa de Ávila), legal and political thought (Las Casas), science (Amatus Lusitanus), philosophy (Spinoza) and literature (Enríquez Gomez). Drawing on groundbreaking research in eighteen archives and library manuscript departments in six different countries, Bethencourt argues that the liminal position in which the New Christians found themselves explains their rise, economic prowess and cultural innovation. The New Christians created the first coherent legal case against the discrimination of a minority singled out for systematic judicial inquiry. Cumulative inquisitorial prosecution, coupled with structural changes in international trade, led to their decline and disappearance as a recognizable ethnicity by the mid-eighteenth century. Strangers Within tells an epic story of persecution, resistance and the making of Iberia through the oppression of one of the most powerful minorities in world history. Packed with genealogical information about families, their intercontinental networks, their power and their suffering, it is a landmark study.

Stratené dcéry 2: Kubánska dcéra
Dve ženy, dve generácie a tajomstvo ukryté na slnkom zaliatej Kube
Kuba, 1950. Keď Esmeralda prechádzala okolo Christophera, zadržala dych, lebo sa k nemu priblížila až tak, že sa látka jej šiat musela dotknúť jeho kolena, a on svojím prstom zachytil ten jej. Trvalo to len zlomok sekundy, ich malíčky sa preplietli na tak kratučko, že si to nikto nemohol všimnúť, ale povedalo jej to všetko, čo potrebovala vedieť. Neprišiel si len pozrieť Kubu. Precestoval celú tú diaľku preto, aby videl mňa.
Londýn, súčasnosť. Keď Claudia zistí, že jej stará mama sa narodila v Hope’s House – domove pre slobodné matky –, všetko, čo si doteraz myslela o svojej rodine, sa v okamihu rozpadne. Jedinou indíciou ku koreňom jej starej mamy je rozpadnutý rodinný erb Diazovcov, kedysi jednej z najbohatších dynastií na Kube.
Claudia, hnaná túžbou po pravde, odlieta do horúcej Havany, kde stretáva charizmatického šéfkuchára menom Mateo. Toho s Diazovcami spája nečakané puto – jeho starý otec pre nich kedysi pracoval a Mateo, rovnako ako Claudia, zúfalo túži po odpovediach.
Nájde Claudia v príbehu prastarej mamy odvahu nasledovať vlastné srdce? Alebo ju tragický príbeh lásky donúti vrátiť sa domov?

Dočkají se jen přívalů sněhu, který všechno a všechny pohřbí. A taky hladu, neznámé epidemie, hrůzy a šílenství. Někteří si vyberou smrt, jiní se v boji o přežití zřeknou vlastního lidství.

Mondegreen
Mondegreen je slovo pre situáciu, keď niečo zle začujeme – a potom sa tejto mylnej verzie tvrdošijne držíme. V románe autor skúma, ako pamäť a jazyk formujú našu identitu, a že sa ich nemožno vzdať. Krásny a experimentálny príbeh Habu Habinského, utečenca z donbaského regiónu, ukazuje schopnosť ľudí podstúpiť radikálnu zmenu a to, ako táto zmena ovplyvňuje ich životy.
Sebepřijetí
Jedním z hlavních zdrojů chronického stresu je nespokojenost s našimi tělesnými nebo psychickými vlastnostmi, neschopnost odpustit si minulé chyby a obavy z budoucích selhání. Sebepřijetí je na všímavosti a laskavosti založený proces postupné integrace jednotlivých částí naší osobnosti do vyváženého a zdravého celku. Stresující motivace založené na touze po odměně a strachu z trestu či neúspěchu můžeme postupně nahrazovat zdravější, udržitelnější a také příjemnější motivací, pro niž je podstatný laskavý zájem o to, co je pro nás opravdu důležité. Nejprve se naučíme všímat si více toho, co nás stabilizuje, poskytuje nám zdroje a posiluje u nás radost ze života. Na této bezpečné základně pak můžeme začít zkoumat a postupně uzdravovat myšlenkové a emoční vzorce, které nám již neslouží nebo nejsou v rovnováze. Těžištěm knihy jsou konkrétní a detailní popisy práce s myšlenkami a emocemi zakotvené v tělesném prožívání.
