Great Books of China
Discover - or rediscover - the major achievements of Chinese culture and civilization. Great Books of China offers concise introductions - each of them accompanied by generous quotation (in English) from the book in question - to sixty-six works in the canon of Chinese literature. The books chosen reflect the chronological and thematic breadth of Chinese literary tradition, ranging from such classics as The Book of Songs and the Confucian Analects, through popular dramas and novels (The Romance of the Western Chamber; The Water Margin), twentieth-century political and biographical works (Quotations from Chairman Mao, the autobiography of the last emperor) and modern novels that are little known in the West (Memories of South Peking, Six Chapters from a Cadre School Life).Frances Wood presents a comprehensive, accessible and richly informative primer for the uninitiated; a box of delights that opens up an entire literary culture to the inquisitive reader.
Free Therapy
Two teenage girls fixated on each other's bodies enter into a destructive competition; a woman's encounter with her ex forces her to reflect on the women's group that saved her; a couple's future is called into question after the damp expert they hire for their bathroom offers them free counselling; an older man's buried grief emerges during an altercation with a mother driving a 4×4; and over the course of a bitter winter a waitress lacks the money to fix an impacted tooth as the cracks begin to show in her precariously balanced life.
Free Therapy takes us into the inner lives of women and men who are versed in the language of therapy, possessed with the self-knowledge needed to change their lives, but finding themselves unwilling to doing so. As her characters try and fail to connect - via sex, friendship, screens and work - Rebecca Ivory explores desire in all its forms, revealing the ways in which we posture and present, and the softness and insecurities that lie beneath.
Perfectly observed, wry and illuminated by moments of sympathy and wisdom, Free Therapy shows us ourselves as we truly are.

The Dictator's Handbook
Bruce Bueno de Mesquita and Alastair Smith's canonical book on political science turned conventional wisdom on its head. They started from a single assertion: leaders do whatever keeps them in power. They don't care about the "national interest"-or even their subjects-unless they must.
Newly updated to reflect the global rise of authoritarianism, this clever and accessible book illustrates how leaders amass and retain power. As Bueno de Mesquita and Smith show, democracy is essentially just a convenient fiction. Governments do not differ in kind, but only in the number of essential supporters or backs that need scratching. The size of this group determines almost everything about politics: what leaders can get away with, and the quality of life or misery under them. And it is also the key to returning power to the people.

Takashi Murakami
This fresh look at artist Takashi Murakami takes on the “monstrous” themes of rampant consumerism, human fallibility, and the perils of life in the digital fast lane, in works from the past decade.
One of Japan’s leading contemporary artists, Takashi Murakami (b. 1962) is known for a wide-ranging practice that encompasses not only fine art but fashion, consumer products, curation, and entertainment. Founder of the Superflat movement, Murakami makes art that is larger than life, boldly colored, and buoyant, with a Pop sensibility that draws inspiration from anime and manga.
But beyond the happy flowers and kawaii characters that have defined Murakami’s career lurk darker manifestations: the sharp-toothed, multi-eyed monsters that have increasingly become the artist’s vehicle for expressing the effects of rampant consumerism, human fallibility, and the perils of life in the digital fast lane. This book explores these themes in works from the last decade, presenting a disquieting vision of monsterized beings born in an era of unprecedented environmental, political, and social turmoil.
Conversations with Murakami and essays by Laura W. Allen, Hiroko Ikegami, and Masako Shiba deconstruct what monsters mean to the artist and reflect on new directions in Murakami’s sculpture and the genesis of his recent NFT projects. The book features lavish color illustrations, a plastic jacket, dyed edges, and four gatefolds.

Appliance
From the Costa Award winner, a highly inventive and and humane novel about our relationship with technology and our addiction to innovation.
'Are they paying you extra for this? You'd better be getting something. For the inconvenience, I mean. Here for the whole weekend is what they said. What if we'd had guests? They never asked. And in any case what are the dangers? Being tested like lab rats, we are. Did they even try to provide any assurance it was all perfectly-'
This is the prototype. The first step to a new future.
A future that will be easy and abundant. A future in which distance is no longer a barrier to human contact. And all it takes is a simple transport unit, in every home, every street, every town. Quick. Clean. Easy. A future driven by data, not emotion.
And so begins the journey of a new technology that will soon change the world and everyone in it - the sceptics and the converts, the innocents and the evangelists. A scientific wonder that quickly becomes an everyday aspect of life.
But what of our inherent messiness? In a world preoccupied with progress, what will happen to the things that make us human: the memories, the fears, the love, the blood, the contradictions, the mortality? As we push for a sense of perfection, what do we stand to lose?
Questioning, innovative and shot through with a rich humanity, Appliance is much more than a novel. It examines our faith in technology, our hunger for new things and the rapid changes affecting all our lives. It challenges us to stop and reflect on the future we want, the systems we trust, and what really matters to us.

Magické střípky
I když se Andrzej Sapkowski proslavil svým geraltovským cyklem, rozhodně se neomezuje pouze na tohoto hrdinu. Tato kniha jej představuje jako autora studie o nejznámější a nejslavnější středověké legendě o králi Artušovi a rytířích Kulatého stolu, v
níž se mu úspěšně daří bořit mnohé zažité stereotypy. Na tuto studii mnohé navazuje Sapkowského osobité zpracování části artušovského mýtu v povídce Maladie. Příznivci hororů se mohou začíst do jeho romantických textů Tandaradei!, Muzikanti či Příhod
a v Mischief Creeku. Výsledkem autorovy fascinace Carrolovou Alenkou v krajině divů (a kočkami) je povídka Zlaté odpoledne. A na závěr to asi nejlepší, povídka V kráteru po bombě, reflexe možného vývoje naší části Evropy po roce 1989. V této povídce,
jakož i prakticky ve všem, co Sapkowski kdy napsal, se zračí autorův bytostný odpor k fanatismu a nesnášenlivosti všeho druhu.

Čas rychlých kol a křídel
Předkládané kapitoly z kulturních dějin se tentokrát věnují fenoménu pro fin siecle zásadnímu: rychlosti a proměnám, které s ní - nebo alespoň s touhou po ní - souvisejí, ať již jde o technické inovace nebo o nový životní styl. Kniha představuje inovační procesy v železniční, silniční i letecké dopravě z hlediska jejich organizace i reflexe, všímá si rovněž některých detailů každodennosti, do níž nový životní rytmus postupně vcházel. Pendant k historickému úvodu přibližujícímu genezi podléhání uzurpující roli času tvoří závěrečné filozofické varování. Publikace je doplněna řadou unikátních fotografií a její samostatnou přílohu tvoří faksimile pohádky O vzteklém autu Jaromíra Hořejše.
