Learn With The LearnBots in 1 Day - 101 French Verbs
The colour coded verb table allows the reader to focus all of their attention on one colour tense at a time enabling them to make immediate connections between the subject and the verb! The French LearnBots are a great resource for dyslexic learners, children and adult learners. Children can start to identify what a verb is and the way it changes with the subject of the sentence. Advanced learners can go on to learn the different tenses and improve their accuracy. This book also works along-side its very own kick-starter app on Googles Android and Apples App Store allowing the user the ability to hear some of the conjugations being read out loud by a native speaker. The app also allows the user to test their ability in remembering verbs and conjugations.
I was not Born for Quiet
Thanks to Janko Kráľ, as John Minahane has written, the Váh is Slovakia’s most mystical river. Again and again the poet returns to his community via that flagship poem of Slovak romanticism, The Enchanted Maiden in the Váh and Odd Johnny. Characteristic in Kráľ’s poetry is his focus on the inward side of events and stories, turned inside out, since one has to turn one’s clothing inside out/ and leap in the middle of the Váh. By this means, metaphysical space is opened. There the spirit is so blended together with reality that it becomes possible to break the spell on the maiden (motherland) in the river Lethe, which is life’s inverted clepsydra. Time always freshly poses the question, which young man wants to give body to his thought. And what unwinds from that is not only a defiant faith in the mission of poetry, but also Janko Kráľ’s courage to stand up for the language and national rights of Slovaks in 1848. To give the time a face where our identity is mirrored.
To this day we do not know exactly how Janko Kráľ looked in reality. Using the surviving descriptions of Kráľ’s appearance, he therefore created a metaphysical portrait with the digital tool Metahuman Creator, which is designed for creating figures for video games. Subsequently he placed this virtual figure in a contemporary context, in the form of manipulated photographs from the mass media.

Lacná kniha New Female Tribes (-70%)
How do you see women? And how do they see themselves? In her role as Head Strategist at the world famous advertising agency J. Walter Thompson, author Rachel Pashley decided to find out. In a global survey orchestrated over five years, over 8,000 women responded, aged seventeen to seventy across 19 countries.
The results make fascinating reading. Working with the results, Pashley defines four key 'female tribes: Alphas (focusing on achievement and career); Hedonists (focused on pleasure and self-development); Traditionalists (women whose chief focus is home and children); Altruists (women who focus on community and environment). She also asked about women's values and measures of success.
Interestingly, those with more assertive values came from India and Saudi Arabia, while measures of success the world over did not necessarily include marriage or children. As women become more and more empowered, politically and economically, it is clear that their lot is changing across the globe. This book will prove essential reading to all those who seek to better understand women's dreams, ambitions and goals.

Lacná kniha Pocta Morfeovi (-70%)
Studium psychoanalýzy přivedlo autora publikace k zaznamenáváním svých snů, které analyzoval.
Soubor snů pokrývá období třiceti let a navazuje na úctyhodnou tradici, kterou má „oneirická“ literatura ve světovém i českém písemnictví. Jsou to např. Jindřich Štyrský, Jakub Deml, Jan Weiss, ale třeba i Karel Jaromír Erben.
Mnohé uvedené sny mají silný hermetický podtext a jak sám autor píše „...nečinil jsem rozdílu mezi tím, jestli ke mně ten či onen sen přišel branou z rohoviny nebo branou ze slonoviny. Vyloučil jsem pouze sny, které nesly neklamnou pečeť toho, že přišly branou z voloviny.
I to se člověku někdy stává...“. I když několik snů již bylo zveřejněno (např. v časopisech Svět magie, Horus či v knize Magie) nalezne čtenář v dalších více než šedesáti snech hermetické poučení i poetickou inspiraci.

Women Who Run with Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype
Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of wildish nature come to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., Jungian analyst and cantadora storyteller, shows how woman's vitality can be restored through what she calls "psychic archeological digs" into the bins of the female unconscious. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes uses multicultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories chosen from over twenty years of research that help women reconnect with the healthy, instinctual, visionary attributes of the Wild Woman archetype. Dr. Estes collects the bones of many stories, looking for the archetypal motifs that set a woman's inner life into motion. "La Loba" teaches about the transformative function of the psyche. In "Bluebeard," we learn what to do with wounds that will not heal; in "Skeleton Woman," we glimpse the mystical power of relationship and how dead feelings can be revived; "Vasalisa the Wise" brings our lost womanly instincts to the surface again; "The Handless Maiden" recovers the Wild Woman initiation rites; and "The Little Match Girl" warns against the insidious dangers of a life spent in fantasy. In these and other stories, we focus on the many qualities of Wild Woman. We retrieve, examine, love, and understand her, and hold her against our deep psyches as one whois both magic and medicine. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and lifegiving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.

Heres To Us
In the follow-up to their charming NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, What If It's Us, best friends Adam Silvera (They Both Die At The End) and Becky Albertalli (Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda) reunite to give Arthur and Ben another shot at true love.
From the creator of 13 Reasons Why, What If It's Us is soon to be a feature film!
Ben has spent his first year of college working on his fantasy manuscript with his writing partner Mario, who is a great Spanish tutor, and an even better kisser. So why can't he stop thinking about the fact that Arthur's back in town two years after they called it quits?
Arthur is in New York for a dream internship on Broadway, with a boyfriend back at home that he couldn't be happier with. But when he comes upon Ben cuddled up with a mystery boy, he starts to wonder if his feelings for Ben ever truly went away.
Even as the boys try to focus on their futures, they can't seem to help running into each other in the present. Is the universe forcing them to question if they're actually meant to be?
Possibly not. After all, things didn't work the first time around.
Possibly yes. After all, the sparks are still flying.
Sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith and raise a glass.
Here's to celebrating old friends!
Here's to embracing new beginnings!
Here's to believing in second chances!
A papírsereglet és más történetek
A kínai származású Ken Liu a generációjának az egyik legeredetibb, legkülönlegesebb és legelgondolkodtatóbb novellistája. Az írásai rendre rámutatnak a varázslatosra a hétköznapi dolgokban. A papírsereglet és más történetek e kivételes tehetségű szerző legjobb műveit gyűjti össze az évtizedből.
Egy fiatal férfi a távoli jövőben a kultúrája és múltja végső megsemmisülése ellen küzd a Mono no aware című történetben, amiért 2013-ban odaítélték Liunak a Hugo-díjat. A papírseregletben egy varázslatos origami tigris döbbenti rá a főszereplőt, hogy a szeretet nem ismer határokat. Ez a novella volt az első az irodalmi díjak történetében, ami egyszerre kapta meg a Hugo-, Nebula- és World Fantasy-díjakat, és mindmáig sokan hivatkoznak rá, hogy szívszaggató végkifejlete a fantasztikumot egészen új módon ábrázolja. A Jó vadászatot! című ázsiai steampunk történetben az olvasó végigkísérheti a mágia különböző korokhoz való csodálatos alkalmazkodását. A kötet további részeiben is igazi műfajkavalkáddal találkozunk: egyaránt olvashatunk űroperát (Hullámok), Black Mirror-szerű disztópikus rémálmot (A visszatérő vendég) és szépirodalmi alkotást (A betűmágus), illetve a mágikus realizmus és az időutazás segítségével Kína történelmébe is betekintést nyerhetünk (Aki lezárta a történelmet).
A kötetet a megjelenése után 2017-ben Locus-díjjal tüntették ki.
