The History of Astronomy: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)
Astronomy, perhaps the first of the sciences, was already well developed by the time of Christ. Seventeen centuries later, after Newton showed that the movements of the planets could be explained in terms of gravitation, it became the paradigm for the mathematical sciences. In the nineteenth century the analysis of star-light allowed astrophysicists to determine both the chemical composition and the radial velocities of celestial bodies, while the development of photography enabled distant objects invisible to the human eye, to be studied and measured in comfort. Technical developments during and since the Second World War have greatly enlarged the scope of the science by permitting the study of radiation. This is a fascinating introduction to the history of Western astronomy, from prehistoric times to the origins of astrophysics in the mid-nineteenth century. Historical records are first found in Babylon and Egypt, and after two millennia the arithmetical astronomy of the Babylonians merged with the Greek geometrical approach to culminate in the Almagest of Ptolemy. This legacy was transmitted to the Latin West via Islam, and led to Copernicus's claim that the Earth is in motion. In justifying this Kepler converted astronomy into a branch of dynamics, leading to Newton's universal law of gravity. The book concludes with eighteenth- and nineteenth-century applications of Newton's law, and the first explorations of the universe of stars.
Rakovina prsu
Rakovina prsu patří k nejčastějším nádorovým onemocněním žen. Navzdory tomu, že bylo dosaženo značného pokroku v diagnóze i v léčbě, je procento úmrtí na tuto chorobu v naší zemi jedno z nejvyšších na světě. Jedním z důvodů tohoto stavu je skutečnost, že značná část onemocnění je diagnostikována pozdě, v pokročilém stádiu. Základním předpokladem úspěchu léčby je včasná diagnóza. Proto autorka ženy seznamuje s možností samovyšetřování, příčinami, příznaky a diagnostikou onemocnění. Dále se v publikaci věnuje problematice léčby (chirurgické, radiační, chemické a hormonální) a následné péče.

The Great Wave
An urgent examination of the great wave of change breaking over today’s world – from the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic and New York Times bestselling author of The Death of Truth
In the twenty-first century, a wave of political, cultural and technological change has capsized our old certainties and assumptions, creating both opportunity and danger.
As people lose their faith in old institutions and elites, radical voices at the margins and the grassroots are disrupting the status quo. This is the time of the outsider – the protester, the populist, the hacker. Some of these outsiders have sown chaos, like Donald Trump, and others have provided inspirational leadership, like Volodymyr Zelensky. But all have grasped this precarious moment to make something new.
Writing with a critic’s incisive understanding of cultural trends, Michiko Kakutani outlines the consequences of these new asymmetries of power, and looks back to similar hinge moments in history, from the waning of the Middle Ages to the aftermath of the Second World War, to find a way forward.
For there is, Kakutani argues, always the promise of transformation in times of turmoil. We can surrender to the waters, give in to the gathering chaos, or we can use the wave’s momentum to propel us into a more stable and sustainable future.

Rozprávky zo Sezamu
Rozprávky zo Sezamu sú prerozprávaním známych príbehov z tisíc a jednej noci. Pre detského čitateľa ich upravil významný poľský básnik Bolesław Leśmian. Prvý raz vyšli v roku 1912, kedy vyšla aj Leśmianova prvá básnická zbierka. Aj v nej sa javí očarenie zázračnosťou, ktorou sú preniknuté Rozprávky zo Sezamu.
Čary sú všade na každom mieste a v každom čase, hovorí básnik rozprávač v jednej rozprávke. S tým sa nedá nesúhlasiť, v rozprávke je to iste tak. Ale hoci sú tieto príbehy plné zázrakov a čarov, divu a obdivu, básnik ich rozpráva s jemným humorom. Uťahuje si aj z postáv, ktoré nám predstavuje ako sympatické. Aj ony majú svoje ľudské chybičky. Ich príhody sú niekedy strašidelné, ale čo je dôležité, vždy majú dobrý koniec.
Kniha v Poľsku vyšla v mnohých a mnohých vydaniach naposledy v roku 2021. Do slovenčiny ju preložil Jozef Fabuš a o to, aby sa kniha zapáčila aj slovenskému čitateľovi sa výraznou mierou postarala pôvabnými ilustráciami maliarka Katarína Smetanová.
Okrem bežného nákladu vychádza aj limitovaná edícia 100 kusov v zmenenej úprave a s krásnym obrázkom Katky Smetanovej navyše. Vychádza v edícii PROLES.
The Mongol Storm
How the Mongol invasions of the Near East reshaped the balance of world power in the Middle Ages.
For centuries, the Crusades have been central to the story of the medieval Near East, but these religious wars are only part of the region's complex history. As The Mongol Storm reveals, during the same era the Near East was utterly remade by another series of wars: the Mongol invasions.
In a single generation, the Mongols conquered vast swaths of the Near East and upended the region's geopolitics. Amid the chaos of the Mongol onslaught, long-standing powers such as the Byzantines, the Seljuk Turks, and the crusaders struggled to survive, while new players such as the Ottomans arose to fight back. The Mongol conquests forever transformed the region, while forging closer ties among societies spread across Eurasia.
This is the definitive history of the Mongol assault on the Near East and its enduring global consequences.

Exile. Mercenary. Lover. Monster. Pennyblade.
Kyra Cal'Adra has spent the last four years on the Main, living in exile from her home, her people, her lover and her past. A highblood commrach - the ancient race of the Isle, dedicated to tradition and the perfection of the blood - she's welcome among the humans of the Main only for the skill of her rapier, her preternatural bladework. They don't care which of the gleaming towers she came from, nor that her grandmother is matriarch of one of Corso's most powerful families.
But on the main, women loving women is a sin punishable by death. Kyra is haunted by the ghost of Shen, the love of her life, a lowblood servant woman whom Kyra left behind as she fled the Isle.
When a simple contract goes awry, and her fellow pennyblades betray her, Kyra is set onto a collision course with her old life, and the age-old conflict between the Main and the Isle threatens to erupt once more.
In a Flight of Starlings
From the 2021 Nobel Prize winner in Physics, a remarkable journey into the practice of groundbreaking science
The world is shaped by complexity. In this enlightening book, Nobel Prize winner Giorgio Parisi guides us through his unorthodox yet exhilarating work to show us how. It all starts with investigating the principles of physics by observing the sophisticated flight patterns of starlings. Studying the movements of these birds, he has realized, proves an illuminating way into understanding complex systems of all kinds - collections of everything from atoms to planets to other animals like ourselves.
Along the way, Parisi reflects on the lessons he's taken from a life in pursuit of scientific truth: the importance of serendipity to the discovery of new ideas, the surprising kinship between physics and other fields of study and the value of science to a thriving society. In so doing, he removes the practice of science from the confines of the laboratory and into the real world. Complexity is all around us - from climate to finance to biology, it offers a unique way of finding order in chaos.
Part elegant scientific treatise, part thrilling intellectual journey, In a Flight of Starlings is an invitation to find wonder in the world around us.

The Future Is Greater
Success life coach Maxine Nwaneri shows women, no matter what age, how to escape the motherhood penalty, arrest ten time thieves, reduce family chaos and thrive in life.
A job? An obligation? A career? A choice? A penalty?
Well-intended workplace policies and initiatives have failed to successfully help mothers and mothers to be cope with work life balance. Countless women get “lost” in the juggling act of working motherhood that often leaves them guilty, unfulfilled and failing on all fronts.
Women do three times more unpaid work at home than their male partners. The pandemic amplified this and saw 1.5 billion children around the world homeschooled with mothers shouldering most of the weight around education and home care.
These pressures have led to one in three working mothers scaling back their careers or leaving the workforce entirely.
An issue governments and employers are failing to solve, The Future is Greater helps readers tap into the powerful, but less mentioned source of answers for this conundrum – mothers and women themselves. In Mother Maxine discusses the issue of motherhood penalty verses fatherhood premium, and how this affects so many women’s lives and decisions women make long before they ever have children.
Every woman faces different challenges, motivations, and dreams. Leading readers through a tried and tested ten step process involving amongst others the following tips:
• decide to make a change
• create a powerful and exciting vision for your life
• adopt the powerful C.R.I.S.I.S success plan created by Maxine
• build resilience and avoid comparison traps
• identify time wasters and identify thieves
Using client testimonials and a journey that took Maxine from homelessness, addiction, academic failure in her teens, to becoming an award-winning student and Cambridge graduate, Maxine illustrates that time for what may seem like the most important commitments is gained by taking time to care first for oneself.
