Pijavice lékařská
V rukách držíte stáročiami skúseností opradený recept nielen na nohy bez kŕčových žíl. Pri ťažkostiach, na ktoré tradičnej medicíne došli odpovede, a Vám dochádza trpezlivosť pre tabletky a infúzie. Vám táto kniha obráti zreteľ na dávno otvorené dvere do sveta pijavíc. Sveta mimo farmaceutického biznisu zapáchajúceho laboratóriami a chémiou. Sveta, kde jediný vedľajší účinok terapie je úsmev na tvári, a kde sa lieči príčina miesto večného potláčania symptómov. Konvenčná medicína už roky bojuje proti vírusom a baktériám, a či sa nám už tá myšlienka pozdáva alebo nie, choroboplodné patogény, tak ako my, tiež hľadajú len nové spôsoby na prežitie v tejto nikdy nekončiacej vojne, budujúc si rezistenciu na zaužívané liečebné postupy, vrátane antibiotík. Prekvapme ich teda spoločne metódami, ktoré dávno upadli do zabudnutia. Bioaktívne látky pijavice neboli chemicky namiešané v laboratóriu, sú prírodnou súčasťou žijúceho organizmu, a na ich mechanizmy neexistuje rezistencia. Preto niet divu, že sa pijavice na celom svete opäť dostávajú do povedomia liečiteľov a terapeutov. Tieto fascinujúce tvory pridlho driemali v tmavých hlbinách sladkých vôd, a je nám cťou ich touto cestou konečne bližšie predstaviť aj na Slovensku.
Figure of Christ in Contemporary Photography
In the first book devoted to representations of Jesus Christ in contemporary photography, Nathalie Dietschy presents a rich range of images from the 1980s to the present day.
Acclaimed photographers such as Catherine Opie, Wang Qingsong, Joan Fontcuberta, Greg Semu, Andres Serrano, David LaChapelle, Renee Cox and Bettina Rheims offer fresh - and often provocative - depictions of Christ that address issues from race to sexuality to gender. The Figure of Christ in Contemporary Photography guides the reader through these alternative representations, analysing the complex social, political and cultural issues that the photographs bring to light.

Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World
Since the end of the Cold War, the world has been shaken to its core three times. 11 September 2001, the financial collapse of 2008 and - most of all - Covid-19. Each was an asymmetric threat, set in motion by something seemingly small, and different from anything the world had experienced before. Lenin is supposed to have said, 'There are decades when nothing happens and weeks when decades happen.' This is one of those times when history has sped up.
In this urgent and timely book, Fareed Zakaria, one of the 'top ten global thinkers of the last decade' (Foreign Policy), foresees the nature of a post-pandemic world: the political, social, technological and economic consequences that may take years to unfold. In ten surprising, hopeful 'lessons', he writes about the acceleration of natural and biological risks, the obsolescence of the old political categories of right and left, the rise of 'digital life', the future of globalization and an emerging world order split between the United States and China. He invites us to think about how we are truly social animals with community embedded in our nature, and, above all, the degree to which nothing is written - the future is truly in our own hands.
Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World speaks to past, present and future, and will become an enduring reflection on life in the early twenty-first century.

Ring smrti
Dej románu, ktorý autor situoval na západné Slovensko v rokoch 1942 až 1947, poskytuje čitateľovi množstvo strhujúco vyrozprávaných príbehov a pestrú škálu ľudských charakterov a osudov. Hlavné postavy, Maťo a Ondro, sú dvojičky na nerozoznanie, no povahy majú odlišné, preto sa ich životné cesty často vzďaľujú, a zas prepájajú, najmä, keď sa ich podobnosť má stať dramatickou zápletkou.
Popri tragických udalostiach, ako napríklad prenasledovanie Židov, boxerské zápasy o život v nemeckom lágri, či postupné presadzovanie sa komunistov po vojne, s ktorými sa spájajú prejavy ľudskej ľahostajnosti, bezohľadnej túžby po moci a bohatstve, v knihe možno nájsť tiež množstvo pozitívnych prvkov, ako zmysel pre obetavosť, láskyplnosť, ochotu nezištne pomôcť, ba i riskovať. Konanie postáv naznačuje, že v človeku sa rôznorodé, i protichodné črty často stretávajú a navzájom zápasia neraz v nádeji na druhú šancu. Niektorí však novú šancu už nedostanú, pretože sa stávajú obeťami záhadného vraha...
Osobitý rozmer knihe dávajú bohato zastúpené historické reálie a snaha o zachytenie atmosféry doby. Obzvlášť detailne je podaný obraz Nitry s vtedajšími názvami ulíc, budov, častí mesta i okolitých obcí, pričom do literárnej línie príbehov sú zakomponované aj skutočné postavy.

Impressionist and Post-Impressionist Drawings
Manet, Pissarro, Morisot, Cezanne, Seurat, Gauguin, Van Gogh and their colleagues made some of the most beautiful drawings in the history of art. This book sets drawings by the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists in the context of late nineteenth-century France and explains why these particular works are as important as their paintings in the representation of modernity.
A new approach to materials and a wholly inclusive attitude to exhibitions gave drawings a more elevated status in this period than ever before, which avant-garde artists welcomed in their preference for scenes from contemporary life. For the first time also, painting and drawing shared the same stylistic principles of spontaneity, freer handling and lack of finish. Pastels by Degas, watercolors by Cezanne, pen-and-ink drawings by Van Gogh and mixed media works by Toulouse-Lautrec have an autonomy of their own, which proved instrumental in the development of modern art.
The distinguished art historian Christopher Lloyd examines the drawings of twenty of the leading Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists, highlighting an aspect of French avant-garde art that remains relatively unexplored and was of immense importance for the art movements that followed

Post-Truth
How we arrived in a post-truth era, when "alternative facts" replace actual facts, and feelings have more weight than evidence.
Are we living in a post-truth world, where "alternative facts" replace actual facts and feelings have more weight than evidence? How did we get here? In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, Lee McIntyre traces the development of the post-truth phenomenon from science denial through the rise of "fake news," from our psychological blind spots to the public's retreat into "information silos."
What, exactly, is post-truth? Is it wishful thinking, political spin, mass delusion, bold-faced lying? McIntyre analyzes recent examples-claims about inauguration crowd size, crime statistics, and the popular vote-and finds that post-truth is an assertion of ideological supremacy by which its practitioners try to compel someone to believe something regardless of the evidence. Yet post-truth didn't begin with the 2016 election; the denial of scientific facts about smoking, evolution, vaccines, and climate change offers a road map for more widespread fact denial. Add to this the wired-in cognitive biases that make us feel that our conclusions are based on good reasoning even when they are not, the decline of traditional media and the rise of social media, and the emergence of fake news as a political tool, and we have the ideal conditions for post-truth. McIntyre also argues provocatively that the right wing borrowed from postmodernism-specifically, the idea that there is no such thing as objective truth-in its attacks on science and facts.
McIntyre argues that we can fight post-truth, and that the first step in fighting post-truth is to understand it.

Jony Ive: The Genius Behind Apples Greatest Produc
Leander Kahney, author of Inside Steve's Brain, gives us an intimate look at how the legendary designer made Apple iconic in his new book, Jony Ive. "Different and new is relatively easy. Doing something that's genuinely better is very hard." (Jony Ive). In 1997, Steve Jobs returned to Apple with the unenviable task of turning around the company he had founded. One night Jobs discovered a scruffy British designer toiling away in a studio at Apple, surrounded by hundreds of sketches and prototypes. Jobs instantly realized he had found a talent who could reverse the company's long decline. That young designer was Jony Ive. Ive's collaboration with Jobs would produce some of the world's most iconic products, including the iMac, iPod, iPad and iPhone. These designs have overturned entire industries and created the world's most powerful brand. Along the way, Ive has become the world's leading technology innovator, won countless awards, earned a place on the 2013 Time 100 list, and has been knighted for his services to design and enterprise. Yet little is known about the shy, softly-spoken designer that Jobs referred to as his 'spiritual partner' at Apple. This book offers a detailed portrait of a creative genius, based on interviews with Ive's former colleagues and extensive research. From his early interest in industrial design through his education at Newcastle Polytechnic and meteoric rise at Apple, we discover the principles and practices that led Ive to become the designer of his generation. Leander Kahney has covered Apple for more than a dozen years and has written three popular books about Apple and the culture of its followers, including Inside Steve's Brain and Cult of Mac. The former news editor for Wired.com, he is currently the editor and publisher of CultofMac.com. He lives in San Francisco.
