A City on Mars
From the bestselling authors of Soonish, a brilliant and hilarious off-world investigation into space settlement
Earth is not well. The promise of starting life anew somewhere far, far away - no climate change, no war, no Twitter - beckons, and settling the stars finally seems within our grasp. Or is it? Bestselling authors Kelly and Zach Weinersmith set out to write the essential guide to a glorious future of space settlements, but after years of original research, and interviews with leading space scientists, engineers and legal experts, they aren't so sure it's a good idea. Space tech and space business are progressing fast, but we lack the deep knowledge needed to have space-kids, build space-farms and create space nations in a way that doesn't spark conflict back home. In a world hurtling toward human expansion into space, A City on Mars investigates whether the dream of new worlds won't create a nightmare, both for settlers and the people they leave behind.
With deep expertise, a winning sense of humour and art from the beloved creator of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, the Weinersmiths investigate perhaps the biggest questions humanity will ever ask itself - whether and how to become multiplanetary.

Jane Campion on Jane Campion
A chronological overview of one of modern cinema’s most celebrated directors, featuring interviews with Jane Campion herself.
Awarded Best Cinema Album by the French Syndicate of Film Critics.
Jane Campion on Jane Campion offers a unique perspective on the creative process of one of cinema’s greatest contemporary film directors. Through a series of interviews beginning in the early days of Campion’s career and conducted by award-winning cinema historian Michel Ciment, each chapter contains the study of a film, starting with the short films that Campion made during her studies at the Australian Film Television and Radio School, then moving through the Academy Award–winning The Piano, The Portrait of a Lady, Holy Smoke, In the Cut, Bright Star, the TV series Top of the Lake, and ending with the Academy Award–winning The Power of the Dog.
Organized chronologically, film by film, the interviews are illustrated with film stills and photographs taken on set, as well as with annotated scripts, storyboards, and personal documents lent by Campion. The book also reproduces three short stories and a text about the poet John Keats written by the director, along with actress Holly Hunter’s “Scattered Memories” of their collaborations on The Piano and Top of the Lake. A detailed bibliography and filmography of the filmmaker complete this volume, which contains more than 300 color and black-and-white illustrations.
War on Peace
US foreign policy is undergoing a dire transformation, forever changing America's place in the world. Institutions of diplomacy and development are bleeding out after deep budget cuts; the diplomats who make America's deals and protect its citizens around the world are walking out in droves. Offices across the State Department sit empty, while abroad the military-industrial complex has assumed the work once undertaken by peacemakers. We're becoming a nation that shoots first and asks questions later.
In an astonishing journey from the corridors of power in Washington, DC, to some of the most remote and dangerous places on earth-Afghanistan, Somalia, and North Korea among them-acclaimed investigative journalist Ronan Farrow illuminates one of the most consequential and poorly understood changes in American history. His firsthand experience as a former State Department official affords a personal look at some of the last standard bearers of traditional statecraft, including Richard Holbrooke, who made peace in Bosnia and died while trying to do so in Afghanistan.
Drawing on recently unearthed documents, and richly informed by rare interviews with whistle-blowers, a warlord, and policymakers-including every living former secretary of state from Henry Kissinger to Hillary Clinton to Rex Tillerson-and now updated with revealing firsthand accounts from inside Donald Trump's confrontations with diplomats during his impeachment and candid testimonials from officials in Joe Biden's inner circle, War on Peace makes a powerful case for an endangered profession. Diplomacy, Farrow argues, has declined after decades of political cowardice, shortsightedness, and outright malice-but it may just offer America a way out of a world at war.

Otto Šimánek - Pan Tau… a nejen on
Pan Tau. První, co se vám vybaví při vyslovení jména Otto Šimánek. Jako kdyby tento nadmíru nadaný a pracovitý herec neztvárnil nikoho jiného!
Tato postava se stala jeho osudem i prokletím. Díky ní se stal populárním, ale také kvůli ní zapadly všechny jeho další role. A že jich bylo! Třeba továrník Keletti v nestárnoucím snímku „Pane, vy jste vdova!“, pan White ve sci-fi komedii Zítra vstanu a opařím se čajem, pohádkový Dlouhý v seriálu Arabela nebo nepřekonatelný mim Deburau v Největším z Pierotů, kterého František Kožík podle své knihy zdramatizoval právě pro Šimánka. A to nezmiňujeme jeho skvělé a dlouholeté účinkování na divadle, v dabingu a v rozhlase…
Herec, který ve většině svých rolí rozdával radost a smích, byl však ve skutečnosti mužem melancholickým, nesmělým a neustále pochybujícím o svém herectví. Nikdy se nikam netlačil, vždy stál raději skromně stranou. I proto se leckdy dočkal ústrků… a ran osudu, které bychom mohli označit za podpásové.
O tom všem – stejně jako o spoustě málo známých skutečností, které jsou spjaty s tímto nezapomenutelným, usměvavým, ale stále trochu posmutnělým hercem – se dočtete v této až dosud první biografii, která je mu věnována.

Placebo On
Prvý diel knižnej trilógie vám rozpovie príbeh mladej Emy inšpirovaný skutočným životom.
Po tom, čo prežila v pestúnskej rodine, ju prenasledovali strašidelné nočné mory. Emina túžba vymaniť sa dávnym démonom však bola silnejšia. S vidinou nového začiatku sa presťahovala do iného mesta, kde si našla prácu, získala priateľov a otvorila dvere do vysneného života bez paranojí a večného otáčania sa cez rameno. Vyhliadky na lepšiu budúcnosť boli na dosah. Do života jej však vstúpil ON. Podmanivý, cieľavedomý, ale i trochu záhadný Christopher, ktorý sám ukrýva nejedno bolestivé tajomstvo. Dokážu sa s Emou navzájom vyliečiť a preniesť sa z tmavých hlbín minulosti? Alebo to bude len klamlivý a krátkodobý placebo efekt?
V príbehu Placebo nie je nič tak, ako to na prvý pohľad vyzerá. Sledujte životné situácie, kde strach pomáha rásť, bolesť dodáva odvahu, slzy očisťujú, nenávisť mení, predsudky spájajú a láska lieči.

As If on Cue
A pair of fierce foes are forced to work together to save the arts at their school in this "enemies-to-lovers romcom of my dreams" (Rachel Lynn Solomon, author of Today Tonight Tomorrow) that fans of Jenny Han and Morgan Matson are sure to adore.
Lifelong rivals Natalie and Reid have never been on the same team. So when their school's art budget faces cutbacks, of course Natalie finds herself up against her nemesis once more. She's fighting to direct the school's first ever student-written play, but for her small production to get funding, the school's award-winning band will have to lose it. Reid's band. And he's got no intention of letting the show go on.
But when their rivalry turns into an all-out prank war that goes too far, Natalie and Reid have to face the music, resulting in the worst compromise: writing and directing a musical. Together. At least if they deliver a sold-out show, the school board will reconsider next year's band and theater budget. Everyone could win.
Except Natalie and Reid.
Because after spending their entire lives in competition, they have absolutely no idea how to be co-anything. And they certainly don't know how to deal with the feelings that are inexplicably, weirdly, definitely developing between them...
