Nagy Póniszív-olvasókönyv
Póniszív felriadt álmából.
- Huhuhu! - Egy gyöngybagolypár repült el a ménes felett.
- Sárkányok a nyírfaerdőben! Huhuhu! Mindjárt ideérnek, meneküljünk!
Sárkányok? Itt nálunk? Lehetetlen, gondolta Póniszív.
- Utánanézek, mi történt! - kiáltotta a ménesnek, és sietve elrohant.
A kis vadpóni, Póniszív és a barátai fantasztikus kalandokat élnek át az erdőben. Egy vörösbegy veszélybe kerül, az aranyos kisrókák, Snikk, Snakk és Snukk kalandra vágynak, a méhek különleges versenyt rendeznek. És amikor feljön a hold, a ménes nyugovóra tér...
33 mese elalváshoz, vasárnap reggelekre vagy esős délutánokra.

The Collector
#1 New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva delivers another stunning thriller in his action-packed tale of high stakes international intrigue.
On the morning after the Venice Preservation Society’s annual black-tie gala, art restorer and legendary spy Gabriel Allon enters his favorite coffee bar on the island of Murano to find General Cesare Ferrari, the commander of the Art Squad, eagerly awaiting his arrival. The Carabinieri have made a startling discovery in the Amalfi villa of a murdered South African shipping tycoon?a secret vault containing an empty frame and stretcher matching the dimensions of the world’s most valuable missing painting. General Ferrari asks Gabriel to quietly track down the artwork before the trail goes cold.
“Isn’t that your job?”
“Finding stolen paintings? Technically speaking, yes. But you’re much better at it than we are.”
The painting in question is The Concert by Johannes Vermeer, one of thirteen works of art stolen from Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in 1990. With the help of a most unlikely ally, a beautiful Danish computer hacker and professional thief, Gabriel soon discovers that the painting has changed hands as part of an illicit billion-dollar business deal involving a man code-named the Collector, an energy executive with close ties to the highest levels of Russian power.
The missing masterpiece is the lynchpin of a conspiracy that if successful, could plunge the world into a conflict of apocalyptic proportions. To foil the plot, Gabriel must carry out a daring heist of his own, with millions of lives hanging in the balance.
EDI a EDIFACT v hospodárskom živote
Elektronický prenos údajov (Electronic Data Interchange – EDI) a jeho uplatnenie v hospodárskej praxi je oblasť informatiky, ktorá je na Slovensku, žiaľ, takmer neznáma. Smerovanie svetového vývoja však ani v našom prostredí nedovoľuje ignorovať vplyv informatickej revolúcie na celkový spoločenský a hospodársky život. Cieľom tejto publikácie je poskytnúť základné informácie o princípoch, použítí a implementácii systémov EDI v ekonomike. Je to jeden z racionálnych spôsobov využívania metód a prostriedkov modernej informatiky v obchode, finančníctve, v riadení výrobných procesov, v doprave, zdravotníctve i v štátnej správe. Zavedenie EDI do používania v praxi optimalizuje obchodné transakcie, zlepšuje riadenie toku tovarov a zrýchľuje obeh kapitálu, čo sa napokon prejaví celkovým zvýšením výkonnosti národného hospodárstva. Vybudovanie unifikovanej bázy pre komunikáciu v hospodárskej i sociálnej sfére, založenej na EDIFACTe, ktorý predstavuje nadodvetvový a nadnárodný štandard, prináša novú dimenziu – dimenziu informatickej spoločnosti. Originálnosť témy a jej prehľadné spracovanie iste zaujme topmanažmenty v oblasti bankovníctva, finančníctva i výrobnej sféry, zamestnancov štátnej správy, odborníkov v informatike i učiteľov a študentov vysokých skôl ekonomického a technického smeru.

The definitive history of Braun – the pioneering German electronics brand that changed the face of modern design
Since 1921, Braun has been shaping the way we live through timeless designs that are simple, useful, beautiful, and designed to keep.

Across 3 sections and more than 500 images, the book charts the company’s defining moments, core identities, and key characters, together presenting the most comprehensive history of Braun ever published. Featuring brand-new photography of Braun’s most iconic products alongside never-before-published archival images, drawings, advertisements, internal documents, and correspondence, in-depth narrative texts interweave the Braun story with the cultural and political history of Germany, providing new context and insight into one of the most famous product design brands in the world. With profiles on key members of the creative and leadership teams that reinforce Braun’s design legacy and the importance of the people behind the process, Braun: Designed to Keep unpacks the brand’s core values – such as simplicity, usefulness, and longevity – that changed the way household products are perceived, designed, and used.

Irresistible
Why are some things cute, and others not? What happens to our brains when we see something cute? And how did cuteness go global, from Hello Kitty to Disney characters?
Cuteness is an area where culture and biology get tangled up. Seeing a cute animal triggers some of the most powerful psychological instincts we have - the ones that elicit our care and protection - but there is a deeper story behind the broad appeal of Japanese cats and saccharine greetings cards.
Joshua Paul Dale, a pioneer in the burgeoning field of cuteness studies, explains how the cute aesthetic spread around the globe, from pop brands to Lolita fashion, kids' cartoons and the unstoppable rise of Hello Kitty. Irresistible delves into the surprisingly ancient origins of Japan's kawaii culture, and uncovers the cross-cultural pollination of the globalised world. If adorable things really do rewire our brains, it can help answer some of the biggest questions we have about our evolutionary history and the mysterious origins of animal domestication.
This is the fascinating cultural history of cuteness, and a revealing look at how our most powerful psychological impulses have remade global style and culture.
