Game Changers: Heated Rivalry
The start of an epic enemies-to-lovers hockey romance from USA TODAY bestselling author Rachel Reid—book two in her fan-favorite Game Changers series.
Nothing interferes with pro hockey star Shane Hollander's game.
Now that he's captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, he won't let anything jeopardize that—definitely not the sexy rival he loves to hate.
Boston Bears captain Ilya Rozanov is everything Shane's not. The self-proclaimed king of the ice, he's as cocky as he is talented. No one can beat him—except Shane. Publicly, they're enemies. Privately, they can't stop touching each other.
The smart thing to do? Walk away, once a few secret hookups turns into a struggle to keep their relationship out of the press. The truth could ruin them both. But for Shane and Ilya, secrecy is soon no longer an option...

Game Changer: A Gay Sports Romance
"Reid's hockey-themed Game Changers series continues on its red-hot winning streak." --Publishers Weekly, starred review for Common Goal
New York Admirals captain Scott Hunter takes his pregame rituals very seriously. In this case, it's not just a lucky smoothie he's craving--it's the man who made it.
Pro hockey star Scott Hunter knows a good thing when he sees it. So, when a smoothie made by juice bar barista Kip Grady precedes Scott breaking his on-ice slump, he's desperate to recreate the magic...and to get to know the sexy, funny guy behind the counter.
Kip knew there was more to Scott's frequent visits than blended fruit, but he never let himself imagine being invited back to Scott's penthouse. Or kissed with reckless abandon, never mind touched everywhere all at once. When it happens it's red-hot, incredible and frequent, but also only on Scott's terms and always behind his closed apartment doors.
Scott needs Kip in his life, but with playoff season approaching, the spotlight on him is suddenly brighter than ever. He can't afford to do anything that might derail his career...like introducing the world to his boyfriend. Kip is ready to go all-in with Scott--but how much longer will he have to remain a secret?

Mengeleho lebka: Zrod forenzní estetiky
V roce 1985 bylo v Brazílii nalezeno tělo Josefa Mengeleho, jednoho z posledních nacistických zločinců, kteří byli stále na svobodě. Studie autorů Thomase Keenana a Eyala Weizmana popisuje, jak identifikace Mengeleho ostatků otevřela cestu k vyšetřování válečných zločinů, které není založeno na svědectví a paměti, ale na forenzním přístupu. Vědci začínají vystupovat v lidskoprávních trestních případech jako expertní svědci, jejichž úlohou je interpretovat většinou kosti a lidské pozůstatky a mluvit za ně. Publikaci doplňuje český doslov Tomáše Dvořáka a Martina Charváta.
Provazochodkyně
Zatímco spojenecké jednotky na jaře roku 1945 utahují smyčku kolem Berlína, vynořuje se z trosek a rozvalin Německa na scénu tohoto románu osamělá postava. Je to Marian Sutrová, se kterou její britští velitelé ztratili kontakt na podzim 1943, kdy v Paříži padla do rukou gestapa. Nyní je jednou z mála přeživších agentů Velitelství zvláštních operací. Statečně čelila zatčení, brutálním výslechům i hrůzám pobytu v koncentračním táboře Ravensbrück, ale jakou cenu za to musela zaplatit? Vrací se do Anglie, kterou sotva poznává, učí se žít v poválečném světě, kterému nerozumí, a hledá nějaký záchytný bod, s jehož pomocí by mohla začít budovat svůj nový život. Rodina a přátelé jsou jí nablízku a mladý důstojník RAF se snaží probudit v ní chuť k normálnímu životu, k lásce a citům, ale vzpomínky a prožitky nepřestávají Marian pronásledovat. Za války se naučila, jak splynout s davem v ulicích Paříže, jak zabíjet a přežít mučení a věznění – nyní se musí přizpůsobit znovu, musí se naučit, jak žít v podivné realitě poválečné Anglie.
Jakkoli se Marian snaží znovu vybudovat svůj život a setřást ze sebe minulost agentky a hrdinky odboje, vzpomínky na mučení, nešťastnou lásku a zradu nedokáže zapudit – podobně jakou touhu po dobrodružství. Když ji její bývalý řídící důstojník láká zpět do temného světa špionáže, těžko odolává vnitřní potřebě sloužit vyšším cílům. Marian se dostává do tíživého soukolí politiky studené války a nakonec je nucena riskovat všechno - aby ochránila ty, které miluje, aby pomohla věci, které věří, a, ze všeho nejvíc, aby dala průchod svým touhám. Provazochodkyně přináší napínavou a velmi propracovanou sondu do složitých motivů idealismu a odvahy těch, kteří nepřestali bojovat ani poté, co druhá světová válka dávno skončila. Je to ale také příběh neobyčejné ženy: ženy, která neváhá vraždit, která dokáže přežít, hrdinky i zrádkyně.
Who can afford to be critical?
On the conditions and limits of critical thinking for design culture under capitalism
Design schools increasingly urge students to address social, political and environmental issues in their work. But who can afford to work in this way after graduation?
In a dynamic style that draws from multiple contributors, Who Can Afford to Be Critical? discusses the limits that affordability, class and labor impose upon the educational promise of holding a "critical" practice. Why do we tend to ignore the material and socioeconomic constraints that bind us as designers, claiming instead that we can be powerful agents of change? Instead of focusing on the dream of ethical work under capitalism, could we instead focus first on designers' own working conditions, as one immediate site for collective action? Over the course of four chapters, this publication delves into the modes of precarity in critical graphic work and possible paths toward emancipation from that position.

Mennyei bűnök - Mennyei sorozat 1.
Kegyetlen titkok és szenvedélyes szerelem a 19. századi Rómában
1858-ban Rómában egy német hercegnő, Katharina, mocskos titkokról próbálja lerántani a
leplet, de számtalan akadályba ütközik.
Marco Fiore, a megkeseredett, hitehagyott, ópiumfüggő egyházi nyomozó kapja a
lehetőséget, hogy felgöngyölítse a Sant'Ambrogio zárdában folyó kegyetlen, parázna
játékokat. A bűnösök mind magas rangú egyházi személyek, akik saját és egymás érdekeit
akár gyilkosságok árán is képesek megvédeni. A szálak a kolostor rendfőnöke, Maria Luisa
nővér kezében futnak össze, akit senki nem mer megvádolni.
Marco igyekszik rájönni a titok nyitjára, de tudja, egyedül kevés ehhez a feladathoz. Egy
véletlen folytán találkozik a gyönyörű, de szorult helyzetben lévő Blancával, és ráveszi, hogy
segítsen neki a nyomozásban. A lány jelentkezik a zárdába, hogy bizonyítékot szerezzen
Maria Luisa nővér pokoli tevékenységére.
A történetet valós események ihlették.
R. Kelényi Angelika Terézanyu-díjas, többszörösen Aranykönyv-díjra jelölt írónő ezúttal a
19. századi Rómába kalauzolja el az olvasókat. A regény gyilkosságról, összeesküvésről, gyalázatról,
hazugságról és titkokról mesél. A sötét és mocskos tetteket csupán a szenvedélyes és
tiszta szerelem története ellensúlyozza.

The Visual Detox
The average person sees about 10,000 commercial visuals a day. Yet, research shows we can only process about 1% of the visual information we encounter. If a picture is worth a thousand words, where does this excess leave us?
In The Visual Detox, art expert and businesswoman Marine Tanguy explains how the imagery we see shapes our wellbeing. She gives us new tools to think critically about images, combat information overload and participate more in the visual world around us by engaging with the art and content that improves our day-to-day experiences online, at work, in our homes and in public spaces.
Drawing on science and insightful case studies, she shows us how to:
· learn the type of thinker you are (spatial, visual, verbal?);
· understand our brains’ interpretation of visual language;
· decode the subtle negative messages in popular culture;
· devise tiny hacks to block out the online noise
· curate your surroundings to create soothing spaces.
This handy guide to visual decluttering will empower you to reclaim your focus, peace of mind and sense of wonder.
Platonic
In Platonic, psychologist and friendship expert Dr Marisa G. Franco unpacks why undervaluing friendship in our culture has led to an epidemic of isolation, and what we can do about it.
When was the last time you put yourself out there to make a new friend?
How do we keep friends in an era of distraction, burnout, and chaos, especially in a society that often prizes romantic love at the expense of other relationships?
This book offers a clear and actionable blueprint for forging strong and lasting connections with others – and becoming our happiest selves in the process.
Using the groundbreaking framework behind attachment theory, this book teaches us to identify and understand our individual style – secure, anxious or avoidant – and recognize that how we behave in relationships is the key to unlocking what we’re doing right (and what we could do better) in our friendships.
Weaving together cutting-edge research in psychology with interviews, personal stories and practical advice, this book gives us the tools we need to be better friends, and better humans.
Deep Blue
Take a deep breath
Steve Backshall was nine years old the first time he saw a shark, while on holiday with his family in Malaysia. It was the beginning of a life-long fascination with these 'lords of the sea', and the oceanic life around them. His career as one of the world's most popular naturalists and explorers has taken him to countless underwater places, many never before seen by others. And he's also been witness to the startling decline in fortune of our oceans' wild inhabitants over the past fifty years.
Deep Blue is a book a lifetime in the making: a remarkable blend of memoir, travel, and marine and environmental science that takes us on an unforgettable tour of the many worlds of aquatic life: from underwater deserts and rainforests to the evolution of ocean heroes like the sea turtle and the Great White, from the genesis of ocean life to the rapidly declining state of white polar seas and coral reefs. It's both a love letter to our precious oceans and rallying cry for what we must to do save them.
The Great Divide
A breathtaking historical novel following the incredible construction of the Panama Canal and casting light on the unsung people who lived and laboured in its shadow - by acclaimed author Cristina Henriquez.
It is said that the Canal will be the greatest feat of engineering in history. But first, it must be built.
Ada Bunting, a bold sixteen-year-old from Barbados, arrives alone in Panama as a stowaway alongside thousands of other West Indians seeking work in the grand building project of the Canal. Francisco, a local fisherman, resents the foreign nations clamouring for a slice of his country, but nothing is more upsetting for him than his son Omar's decision to work as a digger. For Omar, whose upbringing was quiet and lonely, this job offers a chance to finally find connection and independence. Scientist John Oswald has come from further afield. He has journeyed to Panama in pursuit of one goal: eliminating malaria. But everything hangs in the balance as his wife Marian falls ill herself.
When John witnesses an act of bravery and compassion from Ada one day, he hires her on the spot as a caregiver for his wife. This fateful decision sets in motion a sweeping tale of ambition, loyalty, and sacrifice.
Breathtaking and impossible to put down, The Great Divide explores the lives of the labourers, fishmongers, journalists, protesters, doctors and soothsayers who lived alongside the construction of the Canal - those rarely acknowledged by history even as they carved out its course.

The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States
America lost 1.4 million citizens in the North Korean attacks of March 2020. This is the final, authorized report of the government commission charged with investigating the calamity.
"The skies over the Korean Peninsula on March 21, 2020, were clear and blue." So begins this sobering report on the findings of the Commission on the Nuclear Attacks against the United States, established by law by Congress and President Donald J. Trump to investigate the horrific events of the next three days. An independent, bipartisan panel led by nuclear expert Jeffrey Lewis, the commission was charged with finding and reporting the relevant facts, investigating how the nuclear war began, and determining whether our government was adequately prepared for combating a nuclear adversary and safeguarding U.S. citizens. Did President Trump and his advisers understand North Korean views about nuclear weapons? Did they appreciate the dangers of provoking the country's ruler with social media posts and military exercises? Did the tragic milestones of that fateful month--North Korea's accidental shoot-down of Air Busan flight 411, the retaliatory strike by South Korea, and the tweet that triggered vastly more carnage--inevitably lead to war? Or did America's leaders have the opportunity to avert the greatest calamity in the history of our nation?
Answering these questions will not bring back the lives lost in March 2020. It will not rebuild New York, Washington, or the other cities reduced to rubble. But at the very least, it might prevent a tragedy of this magnitude from occurring again. It is this hope, more than any other, that inspired The 2020 Commission Report
