Daisy Jones and The Six
THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Daily Mirror best fiction pick of 2019A Daily Express best book of 2019'I LOVE it . . .
I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON
They were the new icons of rock and roll, fated to burn bright and not fade away. But on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down. There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom.
There was Camila, the frontman's wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode - and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy. There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn't ready for her. And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour.
They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames. It's never just about the music...

The Song of Achilles
A beautiful new limited edition paperback of The Song of Achilles, published as part of the Bloomsbury Modern Classics list
The god touches his finger to the arrow's fletching. Then he breathes, a puff of air - as if to send dandelions flying, to push toy boats over water. And the arrow flies, straight and silent, in a curving, downward arc towards Achilles' back.
Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the court of King Peleus and his perfect son Achilles. Despite their differences, the boys develop a tender friendship, a bond which blossoms into something deeper as they grow into young men.
But when Helen of Sparta is kidnapped, Achilles is dispatched to distant Troy to fulfil his destiny. Torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus follows, little knowing that the years that follow will test everything they hold dear.

Physical and personality traits of Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor and King of Bohemia
On the occasion of the 600th anniversary of the death of Charles IV in 1978, Professor Emanuel Vlček, MD, DSc conducted research of the skeletal remains of the Pater patriae, which brought a number of surprising findings, important to a whole range of scientific disciplines at Charles University, and cast light on significant events in Charles’ life as well as on the cause of his death. The research has presented this prominent ruler as a human being, an ordinary mortal, suffering from many injuries and chronic diseases with which he was coping with indefatigable will, keeping in mind his commitments to God and Kingdom of Bohemia. It may be that all the pain and suffering also influenced his spirituality and his efforts to find salvation by attempting to realize his concept of the supreme being (Imitatio Christi).
The results of the research by Professor Vlček have been repeatedly published, but until now we have had no representative publication in English. The forthcoming celebrations of the 700th anniversary of Charles’ birth offer an opportunity to fill this gap.

Póly planety - staré a nové (trilogie) / The Poles of the Planet - old and new (3x kniha)
Trilogii Póly planety: staré a nové začínáme s uvědoměním si, že na Zemi existuje mnoho pólů.
Vybavíme si nejdříve ty tři prominentní severní, jižní a himálajský dané nejen jejich historickýmvýznamem jako nejzazší hranice, ale také jejich polohou v oblastech jedinečných svojí vysokou zeměpisnou šířkou nebo nadmořskou výškou. Ať už se jednalo o honby za geografickými póly, závodyo dosažení nejvyššího vrcholu světa, nebo mapování a průzkum, tato místa vybízela ke spolupráci a tím sloužila jako důležité prostředky pro sbližování lidstva. A zatímco byly tyto cíle dosaženy a pomohlyv pokroku při vytváření mezinárodních fór, smluvních systémů a různých politik, mnoho problémů zůstává i další vycházejí najevo. A tak se vynořují nové póly na první pohled stejně nepřekonatelnéjako tyminulé, ale možná pro naši dlouhodobou budoucnost mnohem důležitější. Jde o cíle, předsevzetí a poslánípři řešení našich kolektivních problémů nyní v první řadě ekologické a sociální povahy. Věříme tedy,že kombinací přemýšlivého textu, vtahujícího čtenáře do příběhu záměrně vybraných obrázků, je možno přispět k našemu kolektivnímu probuzení a tím pomoci k dobývání našich nových pólů.
Antarktida - objevování souvislostí
Kniha nahlíží do Antarktidy, oblasti světa, která je pro většinu z nás jak mimo náš dohled, tak mimo našimysl. Antarktida je přesto místem plným nejen divů, ale i důkazů nedílných pro vědu, především pro studium globálního počasí. Naznačíme, proč musíme tento region brát v úvahu, abychom plně pochopilidůsledky měnícího se klimatu. Naším cílem je současně zdůraznit, že povinností mála těch, kteří dostá- vají možnost se do Antarktidy dostat, je nejen popsat, studovat a chránit, ale také se svými zjištěními dělit s veřejností. Autor se svojí kolekcí fotografií vykonává tuto odpovědnost.
Arktida - navrácení dluhu
Kniha se zabývá změnou v Arktidě, oblastí, jejíž ekosystém a i obyvatelé nesou na svých bedrech hlavní dopady našich zásahů z blízka i dále. Cílem tohoto svazku je vyzvat k návratu ekologického a sociálního dluhu, vytvořeného nejen prvními návštěvníky, ale také naší současnou, na uhlovodíku závislou společností. Vzhledem k významným dopadům globálního oteplování na arktické ekosystémy, stejně jako k významu tohoto regionu pro globální počasí, apelujeme na všeobecné uznání této odpovědnosti. Navrácení dluhu, které je možné více způsoby, se pak stává vědomou, kolektivní volbou prospěšnou pro naši kolektivní budoucnost. Fotografický příběh v této knize byl navržen tak, aby čtenáři tuto volbu usnadnil.
Himálaj - tušení mýtu
Kniha podává odlišný pohled na Himálaj. I když Himálaj, pro mnohé třetím pólem planety, je častozmiňován v debatách o životním prostředí, zde klademe důraz i na další faktory. Uznáváme, že cestovní ruch, politika, životní prostredí i ekonomika mají společně hluboký dopad na ekologii regionu. Vyzýváme čtenářky i čtenáře, aby zapřemýšleli o změně jako o nevyrovnané a vícerozměrné, pozitivní i negativní. Diskuze o těchto změnách vyžaduje zhodnocení historie i širší pohled na regionální vývoj a vždy musízačínat vhodnými dotazy. Fotografická mozaika regionu byla proto shromážděna a uspořádána tak, aby usnadnila kritickou reflexi a podnítila otázky.
