Pipacs, a fenegyerek
Pipacs alacsony, de igen vastag ember volt. Vastag, de nem kövér. Nagy csípője, széles nyaka, oszlopos combjai, előreugró gorillaállkapcsa csupa erőt, stabilitást és nyugalmat sugárzott. Kevésbé tette előkelővé a megjelenését, hogy két lábfejét egymástól legyezőszerűen távol tartotta. Ő volt ugyanis a világ legcsámpásabb embere. Felső teste inga módjára lengett járás közben a derekán, és szokott mozdulata volt, hogy zsebre dugott két kezével időnként felfelé rántotta nadrágját.
- Az élet olyan mint a füst. Ma itt vágnak fejbe, holnap ott. - szokta mondani.
Barátjával elindul megkeresni Miss Lilian édesapját Borneo ősrengetegébe. És amikor szembetalálkoznak a banditákkal, sziklák röpködnek, pofonok csattannak, szamarak ordítanak, elszabadulnak az indulatok és a pisztolyok.
Még az is elképzelhető, hogy a gonosz nyeri el jutalmát, a jó pedig kellőképpen megbűnhődik.

Emotional
You make hundreds of decisions every day, from what to eat for breakfast to how to influence people, and not one of them could be made without the essential component of emotion. It has long been held that thinking and feeling are separate and opposing forces in our behaviour. But as best-selling author Leonard Mlodinow tells us, extraordinary advances in psychology and neuroscience have proven that emotions are as critical to our well-being as thinking.
How can you connect better with others? How can you improve your relationship to frustration, fear, and anxiety? What can you do to live a happier life? The answers lie in understanding emotions. Taking us on a journey from the labs of pioneering scientists to real-world scenarios that have flirted with disaster, Mlodinow shows us how our emotions help, why they sometimes hurt, and what we can make of the difference.
Cutting-edge research and deep insights into our evolution, biology, and neuroscience promise to help us understand our emotions better and maximize their benefits. Told with characteristic clarity and fascinating stories, Mlodinow's exploration of the new science of feelings is an essential guide to making the most of one of nature's greatest gifts to us.

The Mathematics of the Gods and the Algorithms of Men
Is mathematics a discovery or an invention? Do numbers truly exist? What sort of reality do formulas describe?
The complexity of mathematics - its abstract rules and obscure symbols - can seem very distant from the everyday. There are those things that are real and present, it is supposed, and then there are mathematical concepts: creations of our mind, mysterious tools for those unengaged with the world. Yet, from its most remote history and deepest purpose, mathematics has served not just as a way to understand and order, but also as a foundation for the reality it describes.
In this elegant book, mathematician and philosopher Paolo Zellini offers a brief cultural and intellectual history of mathematics, ranging widely from the paradoxes of ancient Greece to the sacred altars of India, from Mesopotamian calculus to our own contemporary obsession with algorithms.
Masterful and illuminating, The Mathematics of the Gods and the Algorithms of Men transforms our understanding of mathematical thinking, showing that it is inextricably linked with the philosophical and the religious as well as the mundane - and, indeed, with our own very human experience of the universe.

Times Witness
From the Wolfson Prize-winning author of God's Architect: Pugin and the Building of Romantic Britain
Between the fall of the Bastille in 1789 and the opening of the Great Exhibition in 1851, history changed. The grand narratives of the Enlightenment, concerned with kings and statesmen, gave way to a new interest in the lives of ordinary people. Oral history, costume history, the history of food and furniture, of Gothic architecture, theatre and much else were explored as never before. Antiquarianism, the study of the material remains of the past, was not new, but now hundreds of men - and some women - became antiquaries and set about rediscovering their national history, in Britain, France and Germany.
The Romantic age valued facts, but it also valued imagination and it brought both to the study of history. Among its achievements were the preservation of the Bayeux Tapestry, the analysis and dating of Gothic architecture, and the first publication of Beowulf. It dispelled old myths, and gave us new ones: Shakespeare's birthplace, clan tartans and the arrow in Harold's eye are among their legacies. From scholars to imposters the dozen or so antiquaries at the heart of this book show us history in the making.

Bowie David - Glastonbury 2000 2CD
KDO: Hudební chameleon patří k nejinovativnějším a nejinspirativnějším umělcům hudební historie. Ovlivnil mnoho následovníků včetně řady českých muzikantů. Když v roce 2002 BBC vyhlásila anketu o největšího Brita, umístil se Bowie na 29. místě. Prestižní časopis Rolling Stone ho zařadil na 39. příčku mezi největšími umělci všech dob.
CO: V roce 2000 vystoupil David Bowie na slavném festivalu v Glastonbury. Záznam jeho koncertu nyní vychází poprvé na nosičích. Obsahuje většinu jeho hitů a také exkluzivní záběry ze zákulisí koncertu. Součástí vydání jsou i Bowieho poznámky, které původně napsal pro časopis Time Out, v nichž osobitým stylem popisuje přípravu na show. Spoluorganizátorka festivalu Glastonbury Emily Eavis vydání setu komentovala takto: "Často se mě ptají na nejlepší vystoupení, které jsem kdy na Glastonbury viděla. Koncert Davida Bowieho z roku 2000 je právě tím, co mě vždy napadne jako první. Bylo to kouzelné, obrovské množství lidí ho pozorovalo se zatajeným dechem. Bowie tenkrát vyprávěl krásné historky o tom, jak na festivalu hrál poprvé v roce 1971, přespával na farmě a vystupoval za východu slunce. A zahrál úžasnou, emocionální show".
