Hold On, But Don't Hold Still
Delivering inspiration and "parenting comedy at its finest,"* here is one woman's story of ditching her fairytale dreams and falling in love with her unpredictable, chaotic, imperfect life Kristina Kuzmic has made herself a household name, speaking directly to mothers from the trenches of parenthood via her viral videos and social media presence. She is now bringing her message of self-acceptance, resilience, and joy to book readers. With a refreshingly unpretentious, funny, and galvanizing voice, Kuzmic goes behind the scenes to reveal how she went from broke and defeated to unshakably grounded and brimming with thankfulness. Illuminating the hard-won wisdom from a life always spent one step behind--whether it was as a high school student new to America, a suddenly single mother to two kids, remarried and juggling two teens and a toddler, or the unexpected recipient of Oprah's attention and investment--Hold On, But Don't Hold Still is the book every mother needs to reassure her that she's not only fine just as she is, but that she already has more tools and support than she can possibly imagine. Sparkling with wit, this heartfelt memoir is like a long coffee date with a best friend, or the eleventh-hour text message that gives you just the boost you need to get through the night. *The Huffington Post A VIKING LIFE TITLE

The Metamorphosis / Proměna
Anglicko-česká verze klasického Kafkova díla Kafkova povídka Proměna (Die Verwandlung), publikovaná r. 1915, je považována za klíčové dílo krátké prózy 20. století. Obsahuje typické kafkovské prvky jako absurditu, pocit bezvýchodnosti, tragicko-komické momenty. Je těžké rozhodnout, co vlastně proměna ve hmyz znamená. Zda jde o sen, symbolické zobrazení osamělosti a bezradnosti či obraz měšťanské strnulosti a povrchní morálky. Profesor německé literatury Stanley Corngold z univerzity v Princetonu uvádí ve své knize Komentátorova beznaděj (The Commentator’s Dispair) až sto třicet různých vysvětlení. Díky německé větné stavbě Kafka v originálu často používá momentu překvapení a zvratu na samém konci věty. To je pak samozřejmě oříšek pro překladatele. I samotný překlad slova ungeziefer není zcela přesný, protože kromě hmyzu ve středověké němčině toto slovo znamená nečisté zvíře nevhodné k uctívání, jakousi havěť. V naší publikaci naleznete anglický a český překlad povídky. Nejsou zcela identické a bude jistě zajímavé porovnat, jak si který z překladatelů s původním německým textem pohrál. Nicméně čeština Vám jistě pomůže tam, kde Vám bude angličtina připadat nesrozumitelná. Věříme, že si z obou překladů mnohé odnesete a kromě čtení samotného se přiučíte i něčemu novému v anglickém jazyce. Anglický text si můžete poslechnout na nahrávce ke stažení. V publikaci také naleznete jazykové komentáře.

Everything You Know About Art is Wrong
A highly entertaining read for anyone with even a passing interest in art and art history. This myth-busting book takes you on a great ride through the lives of starving (and not so starving) artists, unusual exhibitions and painting blunders throughout history. In the intriguing, outrageous and often provoking world of the visual arts, nothing is quite as it seems. From the world's first intance of photobombing in 1843 to the Damien Hirst spot painting that landed on Mars, the destruction of Vincent van Gogh's Sunflowers during World War II and the GBP3,500 sheet of paper crumpled into a ball, Everything You Know About Art is Wrong will confound your assumptions about the world of art - and perhaps even the place of art in the world.

3 éves lettem!
Amikor az ember hároméves, rengeteg minden változik körülötte: egyedül alszik,
elkezdi használni a vécét, óvodába megy, bátran beveszi a gyógyszert,
kistestvére születik. Mindeközben persze rengeteg idő marad rajzolásra,
maszatolásra, labdázásra, barátkozásra.
Egy kötetbe gyűjtöttük a Pagony legkedvesebb mesehőseinek történeteit:
Boribon, Maszat, Babaróka, Pitypang,
Lea és barátai mind itt sorakoznak
a lapokon. De nemcsak a kedvenceikkel találkozhatnak a kötetben a legkisebbek,
hanem életük minden fontos eseményével is.

The Road to Conscious Machines
'A terrific book - essential reading for everyone seeking to make sense of Artificial Intelligence.' Professor Sir Adrian Smith, Director and Chief Executive of the Alan Turing Institute
'Calm, informative and refreshingly free of hype, Wooldridge's effortlessly readable book is the perfect guide to the history and future of AI.' - Tom Chivers, author of The AI Does Not Hate You
In this myth-busting guide to AI past and present, one of the world's leading researchers shows why our fears for the future are misplaced.
The ultimate dream of AI is to build machines that are like us: conscious and self-aware. While this remains a remote possibility, its rapid progress is already profoundly changing our world. Yet the public debate and media hype is still largely centred on unlikely prospects from sentient machines to dystopian robot takeovers.
In this lively and clear-headed guide, Michael Wooldridge challenges the prevailing narrative, revealing how these anxieties distract us from both the more immediate risks that this transformative technology poses - from algorithmic bias to fake news- and the true life-changing potential of the field. The Road to Conscious Machines elucidates the discoveries of its greatest pioneers from Alan Turing to Demis Hassabis, and shows us what today's AI researchers actually think and do. AI appeals to fundamental questions about what it means to be human; so too do the failures and limitations of its past.
'Nobody understands the past, the present, the promise and the peril of this new technology better than Michael Wooldridge. The definitive account of the new AI' Matt Ridley, author of The Rational Optimist

The Chase
In April 1950, the rusting hulk of a steam locomotive rises from the waters of a Montana lake, revealing the remains of three men who died forty-four years before - astonishing all those who look on. Back to 1906 - the American West has been suffering a two-year crime spree: a string of bank robberies by one man who murders all witnesses, and then vanishes without a trace. The US government brings in the best man they can find - a no-nonsense detective named Isaac Bell who has caught thieves and killers from coast to coast. But he has never had a challenge like this one. From Arizona to Colorado to the streets of San Francisco, he pursues the best criminal mind he has ever encountered. Soon, it will take all of Bell's skills not to prevail . . . but merely to survive.
