The Enneads of Plotinus
The second volume in a landmark commentary on an important and influential work of ancient philosophyThis is the second volume of a groundbreaking commentary on one of the most important works of ancient philosophy, the Enneads of Plotinus—a text that formed the basis of Neoplatonism and had a deep influence on early Christian thought and medieval and Renaissance philosophy. This volume covers Enneads IV and V, which focus on two of the principal “hypostases” of Plotinus’s ontological system, namely the soul and the Intellect. Paul Kalligas provides an analytical exegesis of the arguments, along with an account of Plotinus’s principal sources, references to other parts of his work, and a systematic evaluation of his overarching theoretical aspirations. A landmark contribution to Plotinus scholarship, this is the most detailed and extensive commentary ever written for the whole of the Enneads.

Luckily, ZPD’s finest — in the form of Officers Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde — are on the scene, ready to keep the peace (or at least contain the chaos). But what they’re about to discover in the aftermath of this seemingly isolated incident will lead them into a much larger and more complicated case! Acclaimed author JEFF PARKER (Negaduck, Batman ’66) partners up with renowned artist ALESSANDRO RANALDI (Disney Villains: Hades) to bring the captivating world of Disney’s Zootopia to comic-book life with this all-new mystery adventure.

A szellemtudomány körvonalai
A szellemtudomány körvonalai a német filozófus és spiritualista, Rudolf Steiner legismertebb munkáinak egyike, amely az antropozófia alapjait fekteti le, az érzékelhető világon túli valóságot vizsgálja, és bemutatja az emberi szellem fejlődését a kozmoszban, az "igazi tudományon" keresztül, amely az elfogulatlan gondolkodással elérhető szellemi világ megismeréséről szól. Olyan tanításrendszer, amely szerint azon túl, amit a mai tudomány létezőként elismer (amelynek a lényegét azonban nem ismeri), sok egyéb, fizikai érzékszervekkel és eszközökkel nem érzékelhető dolog, folyamat is valóságosan létezik, sőt érzékfeletti módon megfigyelhető.
A könyv célja, hogy megismertesse az olvasót azzal a szellemi világgal, amely nem az érzékekkel, hanem a gondolkodás magasabb formáival érhető el. A mű elmagyarázza az ember és a világ teremtését, a reinkarnációt, a karmát, a földi élet célját és a szellemi lények hierarchiáját.
Ez az alapvető munka az antropozófia elméleti hátterét adja, és arra ösztönöz, hogy a tudomány és a szellemiség ne legyen ellentétes egymással.
Long Problems
Political strategies for tackling climate change and other “long problems” that span generationsClimate change and its consequences unfold over many generations. Past emissions affect our climate today, just as our actions shape the climate of tomorrow, while the effects of global warming will last thousands of years. Yet the priorities of the present dominate our climate policy and the politics surrounding it. Even the social science that attempts to frame the problem does not theorize time effectively. In this pathbreaking book, Thomas Hale examines the politics of climate change and other “long problems.” He shows why we find it hard to act before a problem’s effects are felt, why our future interests carry little weight in current debates, and why our institutions struggle to balance durability and adaptability. With long-term goals in mind, he outlines strategies for tilting the politics and policies of climate change toward better outcomes. Globalization “widened” political problems across national boundaries and changed our understanding of politics and governance. Hale argues that we must make a similar shift to understand the “lengthening” of problems across time. He describes tools and strategies that can, under certain conditions, allow policymakers to anticipate future needs and risks, make interventions that get ahead of problems, shift time horizons, adapt to changing circumstances, and set forward-looking goals that endure. As the climate changes, politics must, too. Efforts to solve long-term problems—not only climate change but other issues as well, including technology governance and demographic shifts—can also be a catalyst for a broader institutional transformation oriented toward the long term. With Long Problems, Hale offers an essential guide to governing across time.
The Sacramental Magic of Easter
A complete system of magical initiation into the Christian mystical traditionThe power of the seasonal cycle is recognised by magical and religious traditions throughout the world. Beyond religion and magic, the cycles of the year have been sources of inspiration for many people since time immemorial, inspiring much of our great art, poetry, and music. Sadly, the cycle of the year has largely been lost in contemporary culture, and above all in modern Christianity. Guiding the reader through the Easter period, The Sacramental Magic of Easter re-situates the Easter and Lenten period as an important season of initiation into the Christian mystery tradition. The book provides a thorough overview of the purpose of Lent, exploring each of the seasons and offering practices for each. It moves on to explore specific feast days within the period, such as Ash Wednesday, Ascension, Pentecost, Passion Sunday, and more, outlining a number of meditations and rituals for each. The Sacramental Magic of Easter will make a worthy addition to the bookshelf of any student or seasoned magical practitioner looking to enhance or refine their practice, and will indeed appeal to more orthodox believers as well.

Jak porozumět člověku
Každému z nás byly od dětství vštěpovány různé rady a pravidla chování – ale ohledně sounáležitosti a opravdového pochopení druhého člověka jsme se toho dozvěděli překvapivě málo.
David Brooks spojil poznatky z psychologie, neurologie, divadla, filozofie a vzdělávání, aby vytvořil praktického a optimistického průvodce mezilidskými interakcemi. Poutavě vysvětluje, jak druhému věnovat plnou, laskavou pozornost, správně naslouchat a vést dobré rozhovory (i ty náročné), abychom mohli být dobrým přítelem a oporou v těžkých časech.
Všude kolem nás jsou lidé, kteří se cítí neviditelní, nevidění, nepochopení. Kniha Jak porozumět člověku vás naučí, jak s pomocí těch správných otázek můžeme dosáhnout hlubšího poznání nitra druhého člověka a pomáhat si navzájem k budování empatie, moudrosti a sounáležitosti.
Zjistíte:
jak se naučit dobře číst ostatní,
jestli jste osvětlovatel, nebo zmenšovatel,
jak dát druhým pocítit, že je vidíme, slyšíme a chápeme,
jaké vrozené sklony nám brání přesně vnímat druhé a jak je překonat,
jak se stát chápavějšími a ohleduplnějšími k druhým
a jak najít radost, která pramení z toho být opravdu viděn.
