The Room Where It Happened - A White House Memoir
As President Trump's National Security Advisor, John Bolton spent many of his 453 days in the room where it happened, and the facts speak for themselves.
The result is a White House memoir that is the most comprehensive and substantial account of the Trump Administration, and one of the few to date by a top-level official. With almost daily access to the President, John Bolton has produced a precise rendering of his days in and around the Oval Office. What Bolton saw astonished him: a President for whom getting reelected was the only thing that mattered, even if it meant endangering or weakening the nation. "I am hard-pressed to identify any significant Trump decision during my tenure that wasn't driven by reelection calculations," he writes. In fact, he argues that the House committed impeachment malpractice by keeping their prosecution focused narrowly on Ukraine when Trump's Ukraine-like transgressions existed across the full range of his foreign policy-and Bolton documents exactly what those were, and attempts by him and others in the Administration to raise alarms about them.
He shows a President addicted to chaos, who embraced our enemies and spurned our friends, and was deeply suspicious of his own government. In Bolton's telling, all this helped put Trump on the bizarre road to impeachment. "The differences between this presidency and previous ones I had served were stunning," writes Bolton, who worked for Reagan, Bush 41, and Bush 43. He discovered a President who thought foreign policy is like closing a real estate deal-about personal relationships, made-for-TV showmanship, and advancing his own interests. As a result, the US lost an opportunity to confront its deepening threats, and in cases like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea ended up in a more vulnerable place.
Bolton's account starts with his long march to the West Wing as Trump and others woo him for the National Security job. The minute he lands, he has to deal with Syria's chemical attack on the city of Douma, and the crises after that never stop. As he writes in the opening pages, "If you don't like turmoil, uncertainty, and risk-all the while being constantly overwhelmed with information, decisions to be made, and sheer amount of work-and enlivened by international and domestic personality and ego conflicts beyond description, try something else."
The turmoil, conflicts, and egos are all there-from the upheaval in Venezuela, to the erratic and manipulative moves of North Korea's Kim Jong Un, to the showdowns at the G7 summits, the calculated warmongering by Iran, the crazy plan to bring the Taliban to Camp David, and the placating of an authoritarian China that ultimately exposed the world to its lethal lies. But this seasoned public servant also has a great eye for the Washington inside game, and his story is full of wit and wry humor about how he saw it played.
Lacná kniha Acid House (nem.) (-70%)
Als der 23jährige Boab an ein und demselben Tag aus seiner Fussballmannschaft und aus dem Elternhaus geschmissen wird, dann auch noch Freundin und Job verliert, trifft er Gott auf der Straße. Von Boab zur Rede gestellt, antwortet der "alte Knacker", er sei nicht tot, wie Nietzsche meinte, aber eben ein genauso fauler Hund wie Boab, er habe einfach keinen Bock, sich um die bekloppten Menschen zu kümmern. Boab muss sich selber helfen... Surreal, spacig und ganz schön abgedreht - wie die Stories in Robert Altmans "Shortcuts" oder in Tom Twykers "Lola rennt" entwerfen die Geschichten in "The Acid House" ein Kaleidoskop des menschlichen Lebens ganz eigener Art.

Druhá část je věnována diferenciální diagnostice šokových stavů. Samostatné kapitoly se věnují vyšetření hrudníku a plic se zaměřením na diagnostiku pneumotoraxu a respiračního selhání, diagnostice krvácení a příčin oběhové nestability u pacientů s traumatem. Pozornost je věnována i kardiopulmonální resuscitaci a echokardiografickému vyšetření pacienta z pohledu intenzivisty.
Text je doprovázen obrázky, schématy, algoritmy i reálnými sonogramy.
Publikace je určena intenzivistům, lékařům první linie a urgentních příjmů, lékařům oddělení zobrazovacích metod, záchranářům, ale také studentům medicíny.
Zpracování v češtině a angličtině využijí zejména studenti medicíny a postgraduální studenti ze zahraničí. Dále je ocení i lékaři vyjíždějící do zahraničí a lékaři připravující své prezentace v angličtině.

Vražda v Mena House
Vitajte v luxusnom hoteli Mena House – žiarivom klenote v rozpálenom centre Káhiry! Schádzajú sa tu bohatí cestovatelia z celého sveta, aby vďaka noblesným večierkom a dobrodružným výletom za miestnymi pamätihodnosťami zabudli na dozvuky prvej svetovej vojny. V tieni paliem a múrov hotela však na prominentných hostí číha nebezpečenstvo...
Píše sa rok 1926 a mladá vdova Jane Wunderlyová sa vyberie s tetou Millie na dovolenku do Egypta. Hoci by jej teta rada našla nápadníka, nezávislá Jane javí väčší záujem o pyramídy v Gize než o dvorenie šarmantných cudzincov. Napriek tomu sa nevyhne spoločnosti príťažlivého pána Redversa, na ktorom jej však čosi nesedí. A nielen na ňom. Zdá sa, že viacerí hostia v hoteli Mena House čosi skrývajú.
Patrí k nim aj očarujúca Anna Staintonová, ktorá dáva jasne najavo, že sa s nikým nemieni deliť o obdiv a miesto na výslní – a najmä nie s Jane. Tá na seba nechtiac strhne všetku pozornosť v okamihu, keď sa ocitne nad mŕtvym telom svojej samozvanej rivalky.
Odrazu je v stávke nielen Janina povesť, ale aj život. Zákony cudzej krajiny sú neúprosné a mladá Američanka musí dokázať, že je nevinná. Miestna polícia sa s vyšetrovaním neponáhľa, a tak sa Jane rozhodne na vlastnú päsť vypátrať, kto by mohol mať motív na spáchanie takej brutálnej vraždy. Môže sa spoľahnúť na záhadného pána Redversa, ktorý má akosi priveľa tajomstiev? Jane si tým vôbec nie je istá, no nesmie váhať pridlho, pretože počet obetí v hoteli stúpa ako púštna horúčava...

The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida
A searing satire set amid the murderous mayhem of Sri Lanka beset by civil war
Colombo, 1990. Maali Almeida, war photographer, gambler and closet gay, has woken up dead in what seems like a celestial visa office. His dismembered body is sinking in the serene Beira lake and he has no idea who killed him. At a time where scores are settled by death squads, suicide bombers and hired goons, the list of suspects is depressingly long, as the ghouls and ghosts with grudges who cluster round can attest.
But even in the afterlife, time is running out for Maali. He has seven moons to try and contact the man and woman he loves most and lead them to a hidden cache of photos that will rock Sri Lanka.
Ten years after his prizewinning novel Chinaman established him as one of Sri Lanka's foremost authors, Karunatilaka is back with a rip-roaring epic, full of mordant wit and disturbing truths.
