Bulgaria and Hungary in the First World War: A view from the 21st Century
This volume contains essays on the diplomatic and military relations between Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria in the First World War including their alliance politics towards other states and their aspirations on the Balkan Peninsula. The volume grew out of the presentations at the 2015 conference of the Bulgarian-Hungarian History Commission held in Sofia; a large portion of these studies represent attempts to transcend the politics of national grievance and self-victimization, and to avoid the canonization of national myths or the deflection of responsibility. At the same time, authors of the studies try to emphasize the alternatives the politicians of the period could have chosen, and how and why certain figures might bear responsibility for particular outcomes.

The History of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Pictures
Based on period documents and photography, the book maps in detail the development of Czech non-university sciences from the 18th century when the Society of Unknown Scholars in the Austrian Lands was founded in Olomouc. The main attention is focused on the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and its most important precursors, whether the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, active in 1953–1992, or earlier institutions, such as the Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts (originally the Emperor Franz Joseph Czech Academy for Sciences, Literature and Arts), founded in 1890, or the Royal Bohemian Society of Learning, which existed already from the 18th century. Individual chapters are devoted also to Masaryk Academy of Labour and the main scientific institutions of the Germans living in the Czech lands – Gesellschaft zur Förderung Deutscher Wissenschaft, Kunst und Literatur in Böhmen (Society for the Support of German Sciences, Arts and Literature in Bohemia). Attention is, however, also devoted to our most important scientists with whose research results as well as the milieu in which they worked and work the reader is acquainted with through archival and contemporary sources. The patrons and sponsors who made it possible for Czech science to reach a global level are also not forgotten. The entire process of the development of Czech non-university science is places in the wider social context, which influenced the development of the scientific institutions and the position of scientists in them.

Agent Running in the Field
Nat, a 47 year-old veteran of Britain's Secret Intelligence Service, believes his years as an agent runner are over. He is back in London with his wife, the long-suffering Prue. But with the growing threat from Moscow Centre, the office has one more job for him.
Nat is to take over The Haven, a defunct substation of London General with a rag-tag band of spies. The only bright light on the team is young Florence, who has her eye on Russia Department and a Ukrainian oligarch with a finger in the Russia pie.
Nat is not only a spy, he is a passionate badminton player.
His regular Monday evening opponent is half his age: the introspective and solitary Ed. Ed hates Brexit, hates Trump and hates his job at some soulless media agency. And it is Ed, of all unlikely people, who will take Prue, Florence and Nat himself down the path of political anger that will ensnare them all.
Agent Running in the Field is a chilling portrait of our time, now heartbreaking, now darkly humorous, told to us with unflagging tension by the greatest chronicler of our age.

In sinu Jesu
V roku 2007 sa začali uprostred ticha adorácie srdcu jedného kňaza prihovárať Pán Ježiš a Panna Mária. Z týchto slov sa zrodila kniha In sinu Jesu, ktorej stránky sa priamo dotýkajú potrieb človeka našej doby a pomáhajú mu prehĺbiť vzťah s Bohom.
Na pozadí základného motívu, ktorým je klaňanie sa eucharistickému Ježišovi a prinášanie náhrady za tých, čo sa neklaňajú, sa tu otvárajú i ďalšie témy duchovného života: modlitba, odovzdanie sa Božej prozreteľnosti, nutnosť ticha, potreba sviatostí a posvätnej liturgie, tajomstvá svätej omše, podstata kňazstva a kľúč k jeho apoštolskej plodnosti, úloha Panny Márie a svätých v našich životoch, skúsenosť hriechu a vlastnej slabosti na ceste za Kristom, túžba po nebi a obnova cirkvi na zemi.
Táto kniha, ktorej učenie sa pevne opiera o Písmo a apoštolskú Tradíciu, vyšla s cirkevným schválením pôvodne v angličtine, bola preložená do mnohých jazykov a stala sa zdrojom obnovy vnútorného života mnohých kňazov, rehoľníkov i laikov po celom svete.

When in Rome
Rome is where the heart is.
Amelia Rose is burned-out from years of maintaining her public image as pop princess Rae Rose. Inspired by her favourite Audrey Hepburn film, Roman Holiday, she drives off in the middle of the night for a break in Rome . . . Rome, Kentucky, that is.
Running the pie shop his grandmother left him, Noah Walker is busy enough as it is. But after finding Amelia on his front lawn in her broken-down car, he decides to let her stay in his guest room - on a very temporary basis, of course.
As the two of them grow closer, Noah starts to see a new side to Amelia - kind-hearted and goofy, yet lonely from years in the public eye. Amelia may have to go back to her other life someday, but for now she's perfectly happy falling in love with the cozy small town she's found herself in . . . and her grumpy tour guide isn't half-bad either.

Szerdán haltam meg. Az ember lánya nem gondolná, hogy szerdán fog meghalni, én legalábbis nem gondoltam. A baleset gyorsan kiröpített a testemből, nem fájt semmi, nem volt dráma. Néztem a kicsavarodott végtagjaim a kocsi roncsai között, és csak figyeltem. Aztán pár pillanat múlva rám tört a pánik. A kutya! Édes Istenem a kutya! A csomagtartóba szorult szegény, de élt. Közelebb próbáltam menni hozzá, leginkább úsztam a levegőben, és ő észre is vett. Rémült volt, de csóválni kezdett. Ha lett volna mivel, biztos elsírom magam, úgy örültem, hogy nem esett baja. Nem bírtam elszakadni tőle, amíg meg nem érkeztek a mentősök, és sokkal később a rokonok. Mikor láttam, hogy biztonságban van, hirtelen minden eltűnt. Se kocsi, se mentő, se kutya, se emberek.Ott kezdődik ez a könyv, ahol a földi élet végződik. Fordulatokban gazdag, inspiráló történeteiben két dolog közös: mindegyik a másvilágon játszódik, és mindet ajándékba kaptam. Jó lenne azzal büszkélkedni, hogy az összes szereplőt, fordulatot és minden megrendítő részletet én találtam ki, de ez nem így van. Éjjeleken át jártak hozzám a múzsák hosszú éveken keresztül, hogy láthassam, amit most Ti is olvashattok a könyvem lapjain. Hálás vagyok a sorsnak, hogy hozzám jöttek, és remélem, elégedettek a végeredménnyel.
