The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook features 115 of Mickey's most delicious recipes as well as lots of clear information for anyone who wants to explore this version of the paleo diet. Guidelines for the diet are clearly outlined and there are four-week meal plans as well as tips for shopping, batch cooking and preparing ahead.

Válka s mloky, 3. vydání
Válka s Mloky se dlouho rozvíjí jako koláž novinových výstřižků a jiných skvěle parodovaných záznamů o podivuhodných Mlocích, kteří se naučí mluvit, pracovat, chovat se jako lidé, chybí jim jen schopnost tvořivě myslet. Za zdánlivě pouze zábavnou a vtipnou satirou na novinové senzace se postupně odkrývá to, co Čapek považoval za největší nebezpečí pro lidskou civilizaci. Totiž snahu vydělat na všem, co slibuje zisk, i kdyby to vzápětí mělo přinést zkázu. Také potřebu většiny lidí usnadnit si život, pokud možno nepracovat a jen si užívat, jen se bavit a nedomýšlet nic z toho, co se jeví jako hrozba vší kultuře a nakonec i existenci lidstva samého.
------------------
Světovou slávu KARLA ČAPKA (1890–1938) založilo jeho utopické drama R.U.R., které během několika let oběhlo světové scény. Čapek se pak k utopickým námětům několikrát vrátil: v románu Továrna na Absolutno, svým způsobem i ve svých dalších dramatech, naposledy a nejpůsobivěji v románu Válka s Mloky. Čapkovy vize budoucnosti jsou spíše pesimistické, jeho analýzy příčin katastrof jsou však tak hluboké a přesné, že za desetiletí, která uplynula od jejich vzniku, neztratila nic ze své působivosti a aktuálnosti.

Psychológia a reklama + CD
Pocity, ktoré v čitateľovi zanechá táto knižka, možno vari najlepšie vyjadriť parafrázovaním posudku jedného z recenzentov: rukopis knihy som si prečítal s radosťou – autorka dokázala nájsť aktuálnu tému, problém, ktorý sa stáva témou dňa pre ľudí v reklamnom biznise; so záujmom – naliehavou potrebou v reklame je dnes hľadanie hlbšieho zmyslu vlastnej činnosti, profesionalizácia a špecializácia; s hrdosťou – vyplývajúcou z faktu, že ide o pôvodnú prácu, ktorá môže konkurovať prekladovej literatúre. Kniha je zdrojom užitočnej inšpirácie najmä pre pracovníkov reklamných a mediálnych agentúr, kreatívnych štúdií, médií, výskumných inštitúcií, ale aj pre marketingových pracovníkov firiem a podnikov. Umožní im lepšie si vzájomne porozumieť pri zadávaní kampaní, realizácii, kontrole a hodnotení efektívnosti reklamného pôsobenia na človeka. No a pre študentov reklamy a marketingu je to jedna zo základných učebníc.

From the No 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of the Crossfire saga comes the beginning of a twisty tale of obsession and fury, as a trinity of women protect what they covet at any cost.
You can't believe all of them . . . But can you trust any of them?
Widower Kane Black has never got over the death of his wife, Lily. Until he sees a woman with her inimitable beauty on Manhattan's streets, and whisks her up to his towering penthouse.
But not everyone is ready to accept Lily's return.
Aliyah, Kane's mother, thinks that "Lily" exerts dangerous control, and there is only room in this family for one queen.
While Kane's sister-in-law, Amy, has been hurt in the past, and now is out for revenge.
Three women, linked by buried secrets, circle the man who so willingly accepts the return of his dead wife.
But Kane is happier than he has ever been, and will do anything to keep it that way.
Dark Persuasion
This gripping book traces the evolution of brainwashing from its beginnings in torture and religious conversion into the age of neuroscience and social media. When Pavlov introduced scientific approaches, his research was enthusiastically supported by Lenin and Stalin, setting the stage for major breakthroughs in tools for social, political, and religious control.
Tracing these developments through many of the past century’s major conflagrations, Dimsdale narrates how when World War II erupted, governments secretly raced to develop drugs for interrogation. Brainwashing returned to the spotlight during the Cold War in the hands of the North Koreans and Chinese. In response, a huge Manhattan Project of the Mind was established to study memory obliteration, indoctrination during sleep, and hallucinogens. Cults used the techniques as well. Nobel laureates, university academics, intelligence operatives, criminals, and clerics all populate this shattering and dark story?one that hasn’t yet ended.

OVERTHINKING
Since his adventure in Grunsby-on-Sea, Steven Percival has been thriving. He's kept his powers under control, come out of the closet, and been with his handsome American boyfriend, Troy, almost every day this summer. He can't wait to start uni in London with his best friend, Freya, especially as Troy is going to a different university just a quick train ride away.
But Grunsby won't let him go. Around every corner, he's convinced that he's seeing Zachary, the evil emomancer who tried to leech his powers away. Steven also suspects Alice, a girl on his course, of being an emomancer, but the truth is even more surprising when it comes out: she can read and implant thoughts in people's minds, and has been causing a rift between Steven and his friends.
Steven, Freya, and Troy turn to DEMA for help, but even the secret organisation may not be safe anymore. Steven was right: Zachary has been keeping a close eye on the three friends, and from deep inside the organisation too...
That Self-Same Metal
Swashbuckling, romantic, and full of the sights and sounds of Shakespeare’s London, this sweeping YA fantasy trilogy debut is perfect for fans of Holly Black, Leigh Bardugo and J. Elle.
Joan touched her fingers to the blade, felt the metal sing to her. It whispered its secrets . . .
Sixteen-year-old Joan Sands is a gifted craftswoman and an exceptional swordsmith.
So skilled is her technique that she is one of very few women employed at the Globe Theatre, directing William Shakespeare and his troupe of actors in fierce scenes of combat. Of course, it helps that Joan is blessed with the power to control metal, thanks to Ogun, head deity of all Orishas.
But when a pact between the ancient Yoruba spirits and Fae is broken, only she can save the streets of London from peril. Joan must find a way to defeat them in battle by herself . . .
Okay, perhaps her twin brother James, blessed with gifts from Oya, can be of some help! And, despite the simmering tensions of a love triangle between herself, Rose, and Nick, Joan has a community of people to protect and who will protect her in return.

Coming Wave
We are approaching a critical threshold in the history of our species. Everything is about to change.
Soon you will live surrounded by AIs. They will organise your life, operate your business, and run core government services. You will live in a world of DNA printers and quantum computers, engineered pathogens and autonomous weapons, robot assistants and abundant energy.
None of us are prepared.
As co-founder of the pioneering AI company DeepMind, part of Google, Mustafa Suleyman has been at the centre of this revolution. The coming decade, he argues, will be defined by this wave of powerful, fast-proliferating new technologies.
In The Coming Wave, Suleyman shows how these forces will create immense prosperity but also threaten the nation-state, the foundation of global order. As our fragile governments sleepwalk into disaster, we face an existential dilemma: unprecedented harms on one side, the threat of overbearing surveillance on the other.
Can we forge a narrow path between catastrophe and dystopia?
This groundbreaking book from the ultimate AI insider establishes “the containment problem”—the task of maintaining control over powerful technologies—as the essential challenge of our age.

System Error
A forward-thinking manifesto from three Stanford professors which reveals how big tech's obsession with optimization and efficiency has sacrificed fundamental human values and outlines steps we can take to change course, renew our democracy, and save ourselves.
In no more than the blink of an eye, a naive optimism about technology's liberating potential has given way to a dystopian obsession with biased algorithms, surveillance capitalism, and job-displacing robots. Yet too few of us see any alternative to accepting the onward march of technology. We have simply accepted a technological future designed for us by technologists, the venture capitalists who fund them, and the politicians who give them free rein.
It doesn't need to be this way.
System Error exposes the root of our current predicament: how big tech's relentless focus on optimization is driving a future that reinforces discrimination, erodes privacy, displaces workers, and pollutes the information we get.
Armed with an understanding of how technologists think and exercise their power, three Stanford professors - a philosopher working at the intersection of tech and ethics, a political scientist who served under Obama, and the director of the undergraduate Computer Science program at Stanford (also an early Google engineer) - reveal how we can hold that power to account.
As the dominance of big tech becomes an explosive societal conundrum, they share their provocative insights and concrete solutions to help everyone understand what is happening, what is at stake, and what we can do to control technology instead of letting it control us.
