Ked' dávanie obohacuje
Ako fungujú firmy, ktoré si dávanie zvolili za základný princíp svojej činnosti? Anouk Grevinová sa s nadšením pustila do výskumu tohto zatiaľ okrajového fenoménu, ktorý spochybňuje naše doterajšie predstavy a ponúka konkrétnu podobu „zľudšteného kapitalizmu“.
„Táto publikácia vás môže inšpirovať a zrazu budete vidieť možnosti, ktoré sa vám nemuseli predtým zdať dosiahnuteľné. Pootvorí vám dvere do sveta ľudí, ktorí chceli urobiť niečo viac pre spoločnosť a nemali potrebu za to chcieť aj niečo naspäť.“

Všade žijú ľudia
Štyridsať dní, desať zastávok, pätnásť letov, desiatky príbehov. To všetko vás čaká, ak sa vydáte na cestu s Jakubom a Katkou, manželským párom, ktorý sa rozhodol spoznávať svet a ľudí. Táto kniha nie je dovolenkovým denníkom ani zoznamom navštívených miest. Sú to poviedky, ktoré sa vinú krajinami, kultúrami a situáciami, v ktorých sa odráža radosť z objavovania, humor, nečakané problémy až po momenty, ktoré človeka prinútia zastaviť sa a pozrieť sa na svet inými očami, tak ako samotná cesta, aj príbehy z nej ponúkajú zmes emócií, od vzrušenia a smiechu, cez napätie, ale aj sklamanie z drobných nezdarov. Nechajte sa inšpirovať ich cestou a možno sa aj vy rozhodnete vystúpiť zo svojej komfortnej zóny.
Nourishing Networks
For much of the Crescent City''s history, days began with the cries of roaming street vendors and the percussive thwack of butchers'' meat cleavers echoing out from the municipal markets. Generations of New Orleanians--Black and white, enslaved and free, men and women, wealthy and working class--gathered in public to feed the city. In Nourishing Networks, historian Ashley Rose Young illuminates the central role of food in shaping the vibrant culture of New Orleans. While the city''s dynamic culinary scene fostered bonds between some communities, under the surface, groups viciously vied for control over who bought and sold food and where they could do it. Young traces the intricate systems of food vendors and their customers, and how those relationships were affected by race, gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. She shows how vendors and customers alike exercised considerable influence over the city''s food economy and the laws that regulated it by negotiating prices, shaping taste preferences, liaising with government officials, and even openly defying ordinances they felt were unfair. The power each group gained and lost determined the success of their businesses, the well-being of their families, and their ability to shape food retail and local laws to meet their needs.Nourishing Networks vividly depicts a city that throughout its history has struggled to feed its population safely and affordably, and in documenting those challenges, it offers lessons for building a better food future.

The Nonprofit Crisis
A bracing look at what''s gone wrong in American nonprofits--and how it might be fixed.We rely on nonprofits every day to feed the hungry, care for the sick, and perform a host of other essential work, but American nonprofits have been under siege in recent years. Attacked by the left (for being part of the "nonprofit industrial complex") and the right (for advancing a "woke" agenda), nonprofits have also faced a serious threat from within: a rising generation of staffers who expect their employers to share their social justice convictions.In The Nonprofit Crisis, Greg Berman takes an in-depth look at the challenges faced by American nonprofits in the years since Donald Trump''s first election. It highlights the very real problems that have plagued the nonprofit sector and shows how some organizations have lost their way during the culture wars. Berman, an award-winning nonprofit executive, argues that if nonprofit leaders cannot figure out a way to handle the challenges of racial justice, the generational divide, and political polarization effectively, we are doomed to a future of declining public trust in some of our most important American institutions. The Nonprofit Crisis offers nonprofits, and those that care about them, a way forward in trying times.
Maisie Dobbsová
Seznamte se s Maisie Dobbsovou. Odvážná a bystrá vyšetřovatelka řeší svůj první případ, který otevírá uznávanou sérii klasických detektivních románů v duchu Agathy Christie.
Londýn 1929. Maisie si otevírá vlastní vyšetřovatelskou kancelář. Během první světové války pracovala v polní nemocnici. Naučila se tam však víc než jen ošetřovat rány.
Je inteligentní, vnímavá a dokáže vycítit to, co druzí skrývají…někdy i sami před sebou.
První případ vypadá jednoduše. Vážený londýnský gentleman je přesvědčen, že jeho žena něco tají. Pátrání však Maisie zavede z přepychových salonů hluboko do minulosti: k příběhu, který začal ve stínu války a zanechal rány, jež se nikdy zcela nezahojily.Maisie ví, že pravda není jen otázkou důkazů. Někdy je otázkou odvahy. A srdce.

No Ghosts
Kieran and Harlow's best friend Annie disappeared a year ago. And now, so have the ghosts. After being reunited at Annie's memorial, Kieran and Harlow begin separate searches for their lost friend, all while trying to repair their friendship. Harlow, recently retired from the CGI company she helped found, discovers fragments of the dead - faces, gestures, glances - in AI generated videos; meanwhile Kieran, aimless and isolated, stumbles into an occult community of those dedicated to finding the missing ghosts. The friends' journeys will lead them through a world at once recognisable and strangely removed. A subterranean world of endless tunnels filled with ominous arrangements of consumer goods; a world of seances where attendees are haunted by the empty spaces where ghosts used to be. As Harlow and Kieran are drawn deeper into the circumstances behind Annie's - and the ghosts' - disappearance, a terrifying, singular pattern breaks the surface. No Ghosts is a startling debut which plumbs the undercurrents of feeling that pool beneath our use of emergent technologies, to ask what new forms haunting might take. Told with a sinister precision, it dramatizes the abstraction and unreality that increasingly define our everyday lives, and marks the arrival of a major new literary novelist.
Arisaig and Morar
Arisiag and Morar, Norse and Gaelic, the 'river-mouth bay' and the 'great water', part of na garbh Chriochan (The Rough Bounds), an area so rugged and desolate it was itself known as the Highlands of the Highlands. From Borrodale (fort-dale) to Kilmory (Maelrubha's chapel), from Druimindarroch (oak-tree ridge) to Eireagoraidh (shieling-corrie), the place-names echo the story of the landscape. This harsh environment was at the heart of the old Macruari and Clanranald estate; this was where Bonnie Prince Charlie first landed and last departed, where fugitive Jacobites skulked and languished, where the great poet Alexander Macdonald breathed his last lines, and whence the sail-ships Jane, Lucy and British Queen carried so many hopes to the New World. Where, despite clearance and emigration, potato blight and deer forest, poverty and hardship, a new road and railway were eventually driven, a fishing industry flourished, and where communities survived.
Lucky Devils
In the late 1970s, three men declared war on the casino. They arrived in Las Vegas just as the personal computer was beginning its boom. If the power of computers could be applied to gambling, they reasoned, a player could make a mint.There was only one problem: How do you smuggle a computer, typically, the size of a suitcase, onto a casino floor without getting noticed?Using cutting-edge strategies and gloriously DIY tech that was decades ahead of its time, they solved this and many other problems. They became pioneers of what''s known as advantage playing, applying their intellects and creativity to everything from poker and blackjack to horseracing and roulette. For more than thirty years they faced down angry pit bosses, violent Mafiosos, bankruptcies, nights in foreign jails, lawsuits, and personal betrayals. They learned that the only thing harder than reaching the pinnacle of gambling achievement was staying there.Drawing from exclusive interviews with all three players and their associates, award-winning Bloomberg journalist Kit Chellel delivers a cinematic and often uproarious account of fortunes gained, lost, and gained again. Scrupulously reported and irresistibly told, Lucky Devils reveals how these players did more than simply amass wealth; they revolutionized the game itself.They gave the lie to the old adage. The house doesn''t always win.
