Container Architecture
Design reduced to the absolute essential - the shipping container. Invented in the 1950s by Malcom McLean, these plain steel boxes with corrugated profiles revolutionized the worldwide trade sector. These huge receptacles for storing and transporting cargo have found their way into architecture to become an essential part of global building culture.
Ever more astonishing architectural applications and design experiments are based on these standardized, strictly geometrically conceived units. Their imaginatively designed shells are just as versatile as their use: sometimes with original, rough surfaces with traces of use that tell a story, sometimes with a curtain facade made of wood and largescale glazing, or even as a purist composition with a sophisticated light installation. In an everchanging world with its hybrid forms of living and working, this book presents a collection of remarkable container buildings.
Good Half Gone
An explosive new thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Never Never!
Iris Walsh saw her twin sister, Piper, get kidnapped – so why does no one believe her?
Iris narrowly escaped her pretty, popular twin sister’s fate as a teen – vanished long before the cops agreed to investigate. With no evidence to go on but a few fractured memories, the case quickly went cold.
Now an adult, Iris wants one thing – proof. And if the police still won’t help, she’ll just have to find it her own way; by interning at the isolated Shoal Island Hospital for the criminally insane, where secrets lurk in the shadows and are kept under lock and key.
But Iris soon realizes that something even more sinister is simmering beneath the surface of the Shoal, and that the patients aren’t the only ones being observed…

Učebnice ájurvédy III.
Ájurvéda je lékařská věda, jejímž cílem je uzdravování, udržování kvality života a dosažení dlouhověkosti. Toužíte proniknout do tajemství nejstaršího dochovaného systému léčení na naší planetě? Tato kniha představuje postupy ájurvédy ze starobylých textů v systematickém uspořádání, jež je přístupné západní veřejnosti.
Jedna z oblíbených súter dr. Lada od Čaraky říká, že skutečný lékař zná tělo, mysl, myšlenky, pocity a vědomí pacienta. Pokud nevstoupíte do srdce svého pacienta se světlem vědomí, znalosti, soucitu a vhledu, nebudete schopni diagnostikovat jeho problém a patřičným způsobem člověka vyléčit. Žáci dr. Lada z celého světa studují ájurvédu trpělivě krok za krokem a zakotvují své vědomosti v principech systému, jenž je starší o tisíce let než západní medicínské koncepty. Poté se učí sofistikované metody hodnocení, které ájurvéda zahrnuje. Dokonalé zvládnutí těchto technik vyžaduje praxi a oddanost. Předchozí kroky, důkladně procvičené, připravují studenty na vstup do následujícího stadia, kde mohou přistoupit ke klientovi a vést ho na jeho cestě uzdravování.
Ve třetím dílu učebnice najdete komplexní informace o:
terapeutických prostředcích včetně stravy a doporučení pro životní styl,
zklidňujících a očistných terapiích,
jemných léčebných metodách zahrnujících individuální omlazující a regenerační postupy,
cvičení jógy a pránájámy,
bylinných substancích,
postupech při řešení problémů podle dóš.
Každá část jasně vysvětluje principy léčebných technik, často s nastíněnými postupy pro čtenáře, a rovněž popisuje bylinné substance a jejich praktické použití. Jedná se o zásadní zdroj informací pro každého ájurvédského praktika.
Absolutně brilantní. Tato učebnice je plná praktického poznání, jež může takto výstižně předat pouze člověk s těmi nejhlubšími znalostmi ájurvédy. Tímto textem dr. Lad sdílí se čtenáři nevyčíslitelné dary své moudrosti, jež pomáhají naplnit cíl ájurvédy: odstranit utrpení a navrátit zdraví. Jsme nekonečně vděčni. -
SEBASTIAN POLE, Autor Ayurvedic Medicine; The Principles of Traditional Practice
Předání ájurvédy od pravého mistra! Absoutně úplné a všezahrnující, přesto snadno pochopitelné a vstřebatelné. Nová kniha dr. Lada představuje hojnost praktické ájurvédské moudrosti pro naši dobu.
REBECCA a SASCHA KRIESEOVI, praktici ájurvédy, zakladatelé Ayuseva Clinic
Dr. Vasant Lad dál osvětluje hlubokou moudrost ájurvédy způsobem, jenž ji probouzí k životu a činí ji přístupnou pro mnoho studentů. Nemohu než vyjádřit vděčnost za tento díl, který moudře objasňuje velké množství léčebných postupů, které jsou k dispozici ájurvédskému praktikovi.

Hotelové legendy Švýcarska
Proč právě Švýcaři vypilovali hotelový byznys na absolutní špičku? Které hotely musíte ve Švýcarsku rozhodně zažít a proč to zdaleka nejsou jen přepychové pětihvězdičkové paláce? Jaké stopy zanechal v rodné zemi legendární král hoteliérů a hoteliér králů César Ritz, jehož jméno nesou nejslavnější světové podniky? Tato knížka se jako úplně první na českém trhu věnuje světově obdivovanému fenoménu švýcarskému hoteliérství. Síly při psaní spojili dva nadšení švýcarologové: Petr Čermák, dlouholetý turistický průvodce a autor série švýcarských bedekrů, s Alenou Koukalovou, dlouholetou ředitelkou pražské kanceláře Schweiz Tourismu a též průvodkyní českých turistů ve Švýcarsku.
Holé a trapné dýchání - audiokniha
Populární herec a komik, proslulý svým absurdním humorem, je známý i jako autor zábavných textů. Píše celý život kratší literární útvary, které vyšly knižně a nyní je pod stejným názvem autor načetl (v tomto kompletu jich najdete celkem 43). V chronologii vzpomínek, iniciovaných setkáním s holotropním dýcháním, se věnuje zážitkům od dětství, školních let a studií přes divadelní i filmové události až k zápiskům ze současnosti. Jeho příhody a komentář k nim vyvolají úsměv na tváři i dlouhotrvající smích, ale občas ten smích zhořkne, neboť Sobota je zde absolutně upřímný a nekompromisně odhaluje vše, co jej v životě potkalo. V bonusu pak Luděk Sobota poděkuje, předvede scénku se svou milovanou ženou Adrienou a nakonec zazpívá. Nezkrácená verze

Conspiracy
From the Satanic Panic to the anti-vaxx movement, the moon landing to Pizzagate, it's always been human nature to believe we're being lied to by the powers that be (and sometimes, to be fair, we absolutely are).
But while it can be fun to indulge in a bit of Deep State banter on the group chat, recent times have shown us that some of these theories have taken on a life of their own - and in our dogged quest for the truth, it appears we might actually be doing it some damage.
In Conspiracy, Tom Phillips and Jonn Elledge take us on a fascinating, insightful and often hilarious journey through conspiracy theories old and new, to try and answer a vital question for our times: how can we learn to log off the QAnon message boards, and start trusting hard evidence again?

The Story Smuggler
'Some smuggle cigarettes, others alcohol - or weapons.
Our contraband, being invisible, is more dangerous.
Our contraband is undetectable by scanners.
What we carry as concealed excess baggage is stories.'
In this exquisite literary gem, Georgi Gospodinov, winner of the International Booker Prize, invites the reader on a winding journey through his own memories.
He shows us a childhood under Communism, a particularly Bulgarian variety of melancholy, the freedom and thrills found in reading and writing, and the coming of age of one extraordinary writer.
Ultimately, this profound, playful and deeply moving autobiographical text offers resounding proof of the power and importance of storytelling.

PAWS: Gabby Gets It Together
Are you a fan of Raina Telgemeier or Shannon Hale? Then don’t miss PAWS, a new graphic novel series about best friends, cute dogs, and all the fun (and trouble) that comes with them. Perfect for fans of Real Friends, Roller Girl, and Allergic, this funny and heartwarming series is the Baby-Sitters Club for pets!
Meet best friends Gabby Jordan, Priya Gupta, and Mindy Park. They’re different in just about every way—personalities, hobbies, family, and more—but they have a few important things in common: they’re all in the same class, they absolutely love animals, and for reasons that are as varied as the trio themselves none of them can actually have any pets.
Unable to resist the adorable temptation any longer, the girls decide to come up with a way to finally get their hands on some furry friends. And, as luck would have it, it seems like their neighborhood is in need of some afterschool dog-walkers. So, just like that, PAWS is born!
But it turns out that running a business is harder than it looks, especially with three co-owners who are such different people. The girls soon argue about everything, from how to prioritize their commitments to the best way to keep their doggy clients happy. And when their fighting ultimately leads to a doggo crisis, will it tear their business and friendship apart or will they be able to get it together to save the day?
Machine Learning
The profession is changing. A new era is rapidly approaching when computers will not merely be instruments for data creation, manipulation and management, but, empowered by artificial intelligence, they will become agents of design themselves. Architects need a strategy for facing the opportunities and threats of these emergent capabilities or risk being left behind. Architecture’s best-known technologist, Phil Bernstein, provides that strategy. Divided into three key sections – Process, Relationships and Results – Machine Learning lays out an approach for anticipating, understanding and managing a world in which computers often augment, but may well also supplant, knowledge workers like architects. Armed with this insight, practices can take full advantage of the new technologies to future-proof their business. Features chapters on:
Professionalism
Tools and technologies
Laws, policy and risk
Delivery, means and methods
Creating, consuming and curating data
Value propositions and business models.
