Ice Planet Barbarians
Nem evilági, csodálatos szerelmi történet egy földi asszony, Georgie Carruthers és Vektal, egy másik bolygó földönkívüli lakója között.
Azt hihetnénk, hogy nem történhet velünk rosszabb, mint ha elrabolnak minket a földönkívüliek. Mekkora tévedés! A földönkívülieknek ugyanis meghibásodik az űrhajója, és kiteszik a földi nőkből álló szállítmányukat - köztük engem is - egy jégbolygón.
Mivel semmi sem készít fel minket, hogy egy jeges pusztaságban életben maradjunk, és mivel nem hivatalosan engem tekintenek a többiek a vezetőjüknek, elindulok a hóban, hogy segítséget keressek.
És találok is! Egy nagydarab, kék szarvú földönkívüli mutatkozik be, méghozzá...elég elképesztő módon. Vektal kijelenti, hogy a párja, a választott nősténye vagyok, és miattam dorombol a mellkasa. Segít majd, hogy én és a népem életben maradjunk, de ez újabb problémát szül.
Ha segít, hogy ezt túléljük, nem biztos, hogy utána elenged innen...
A nemzetközi könyvszenzáció, mely a TikTok-on vált világőrületté, egyszerre kedves és szexi románc, és közben egy letehetetlenül izgalmas túlélő sztori.
Lidsko-psí konverzace
My lidé a naši psi jsme dva zcela rozdílné živočišné druhy. Jakkoli žijeme tisíce let pohromadě, oddělují nás miliony let evoluce našich předků. Vnímáme odlišně citlivými smysly, chápeme svět jiným způsobem, komunikujeme rozdílně. Pod společnou střechou ale musíme najít společnou řeč, které obě strany porozumějí stejně.
Nová kniha Františka Šusty vám ukáže, jak z hrstky slov (ale i jiných zvuků), tónů hlasu, vašich gest a nejrůznějších signálů ze strany psa můžete dát dohromady slovník. Jeho osvojení v rámci tréninku vám pak umožní předávat si se psem komplexnější sdělení, což oceníte zejména v každodenním životě, který s sebou přináší mnohem víc mnohem složitějších situací, než k jakým dochází na cvičišti. Život se psem není totiž jen o jeho výuce v tréninku, ale i o výchově v běžném životě – a tento slovník řeší obojí.

Az 5 szeretetnyelv-Egymásra hangolva
Gary Chapman amerikai pszichológus nevét az általa alkotott "szeretetnyelvek" fogalma tette világhírűvé. Legismertebb könyve, melynek témája a szeretet kommunikációja a házasságban, több mint tízmillió példányban kelt el világszerte.
Chapman család- és párterapeutaként szerzett több évtizedes tapasztalata alapján arra a felismerésre jutott, hogy a szeretetet ugyanúgy tanuljuk, mint az anyanyelvünket, és a szeretetközlés alapvetően ötféle kommunikációs csatornán keresztül történik.
A szeretet kifejezésének ez az öt módja:
- elismerő szavak,
- minőségi idő,
- ajándékozás,
- szívességek,
- testi érintés.
Mindannyian azon a nyelven fogadjuk be és fejezzük ki a szeretetet, amelyre neveltetésünk és személyes hajlamaink nyomán a legfogé
konyabbá váltunk. Ezrét fordul gyakran elő, hogy az üzenet küldője és befogadója nem érti meg egymást. Ilyenkor panaszolja a férj, hogy hiába visz virágot a feleségének, csak egy erőltetett mosoly a válasz. "Talán már nem szeret?" - teszi fel magának a kérdést, holott csak arról van szó, hogy szeretetközlése nem ért célba, mert a felesége nem az ajándékok, hanem a minőségi idő nyelvén ért.
Mi tehát a megoldás? Aki nem riad vissza egy kis nyelvtanulástól, könnyen ráhangolódhat társa, családtagjai, barátai szeretetnyelvére.
Fedezze fel szeretetnyelvét a könyvben található teszt kitöltésével.

Success by Recommendation
What this book can do for you: You support certified climate protection projects, get fast compact information and checklists from experts (overview and press reviews in the book preview) as well as in practice tested advice, which leads step by step to success - also thanks to add-on.
Because the standard way to a new job, the job advertisement, has long since become obsolete: Especially with odd CVs, applicants often don't even make it to the job interview because their applications are sorted out immediately by the great mass of competitors. What remains are the right application methods, which often work through informal channels: Namely, job search by recommendation through contacts, also known as personal branding. To do this, applicants fall back on an existing network or look for helpful contacts - e.g. through social media, videos and blog. Many companies also offer bonuses to their employees if they recommend suitable applicants who fit exactly into the team. So how do you manage to address these door openers? How does it work to control your own image with reputation management? And how can you stand out positively with recommendations, present yourself excellently and thus convince both personnel and employers? This provides answers to the most important questions.
We give you the best possible help on the topics of career, finance, management, personnel work and life assistance. For this purpose, we gather in each book the best experts in their field as authors - detailed biographies in the book - , who give a comprehensive overview of the topic and additionally offer you success planner workbooks in printed form.
Our guidebooks are aimed primarily at beginners. Readers who are looking for more in-depth information can get it for free as an add-on with individual content as desired. This concept is made possible by a particularly efficient, innovative digital process.

Sparring Partners
Three thrilling stories of the law from the master of the legal thriller.
Homecoming takes us back to Ford County, the fictional setting of many of John Grisham's unforgettable stories. Jake Brigance is back, but he's not in the courtroom. He's called upon to help an old friend, Mack Stafford, a former lawyer in Clanton who three years earlier became a local legend when he stole some money from his clients, divorced his wife, filed for bankruptcy, and left his family in the middle of the night, never to be heard from again. Until now. Now Mack is back and he's leaning on his old pals, Jake and Harry Rex, to help him return. His homecoming does not go as planned.
In Strawberry Moon, we meet Cody Wallace, a young death row inmate only three hours away from execution. His lawyers can't save him, the courts slam the door, and the Governor says no to a last minute request for clemency. As the clock ticks down, Cody has only one final request.
The Sparring Partners are the Malloy brothers, Kirk and Rusty, two successful young lawyers who inherited a once prosperous firm when its founder, their father, was sent to prison. Kirk and Rusty loathe one another, and speak to each other only when necessary. As the firm disintegrates, the fiasco falls into the lap of Diantha Bradshaw, the only person the partners trust. Can she save the Malloys, or does she take a stand for the first time and try to save herself?

NO ONE WRITES DRAMA LIKE JOHN GRISHAM
Italy 1900. A Portrait in Color
"You may have the universe," composer Giuseppe Verdi once said, "if I can have Italy." Back in the mid-19th century, Verdi's emotive language appealed to the patriotic sentiments of an emergent nation state. After decades of struggle and bloodshed, the movement known as Risorgimento triumphed with the 1861 proclamation of Italian Unity, assembling disparate kingdoms, territories, and borders that had hitherto been ruled by Austria, the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the Papal States.
Today, Verdi's call to Italy resounds not only for its native patriots, but for the millions around the world who look upon this peninsula shaped like a boot and delight in a land of light, art, and sensuality. This collection is a fascinating visual document of Italy at the turn of the century, gathering photochromes and vintage colored prints.
From coast to coast, through classical sites and Renaissance wonders, down beguiling Venetian waterways and along the dappled shores of the Amalfi coast, each evocative image impresses as much for its color clarity as for the vivid evocation of times gone by. As if in an enchanted dream, we walk an empty and dusklit St. Mark's Square, stroll the shady Uffizi courtyard alone, and find just a few horse carts pulled up in front of the Pantheon in Rome. In place of cameras, guides, and tour groups, we find ordinary traders and laborers, quiet street scenes, and humble settlements. As sunlit charms and historic reality combine, the result is an unrivaled record of this young nation that fought hard to exist, and went on to win the world's hearts.

No Bullsh*t Change
Nothing stays the same. The only constant we now face is change, and the demand for those who can grasp its opportunities has never been greater. Organisations today must learn to continuously adapt - and adapt faster than their competition. It is this that will drive them forward and it is this that is the modern leader's greatest challenge.
Despite what we're told, leading change is not a secret knowledge available only to a chosen few. This book cuts through the bullsh*t to enable everybody to do it and do it well. Drawing on over a decade of experience leading successful change programmes around the world, Chris Hirst cuts through the unworkable guff to reveal his uncomplicated, proven strategies for team, organisational and cultural transformation.
For everybody, from leaders of small teams to global enterprises, this book will transform how you lead, your results and the careers of those who work with you.
This is Europe
What does it now mean to call yourself European? Who makes up this population of 750 million, sprawled from Ireland to Ukraine, from Sweden to Turkey? Who has always called it home, and who has newly arrived from elsewhere? Who are the people who drive our long-distance lorries, steward our criss-crossing planes, lovingly craft our legacy wines, fish our depleted waters, and risk life itself in search of safety and a new start?
In a series of vivid, ambitious, darkly visceral but always empathetic portraits of other people's lives, Ben Judah invites us to meet them. Drawn from hours of painstaking interviews, these vital stories reveal a frenetic and vibrant continent which has been transformed by diversity, migration, the internet, climate change, Covid, war and the quest for freedom.
Laid dramatically bare, it may not always be a Europe we recognize - but this is Europe.
Tükör és füst

Ebben az első, 1998-ban megjelent és mára klasszikussá vált novelláskötetében képzelete és ügyessége a hétköznapi világot baljós csodákkal teli hellyé változtatja: ahol egy filléres boltban megvásárolható a Szent Grál, ahol a bérgyilkos hirdetésben árulja szolgáltatásait, és ahol egy fiú az életéért alkudozik egy trollal.
Lépj be ebbe az új valóságba, amelyet tükrök sokszorosítanak és füst homályosít el, mégis mágikus és megragadható.

The Anatomy of Grief
Grief happens to everyone. Universal and enveloping, grief cannot be ignored or denied.
This original new book by psychologist Dorothy P. Holinger uses humanistic and physiological approaches to describe grief's impact on the bereaved. Taking examples from literature, music, poetry, paleoarchaeology, personal experience, memoirs, and patient narratives, Holinger describes what happens in the brain, the heart, and the body of the bereaved.
Readers will learn what grief is like after a loved one dies: how language and clarity of thought become elusive, why life feels empty, why grief surges and ebbs so persistently, and why the bereaved cry. Resting on a scientific foundation, this literary book shows the bereaved how to move through the grieving process and how understanding grief in deeper, more multidimensional ways can help quell this sorrow and allow life to be lived again with joy.

Beatriz Milhazes
In her vibrant works, the Brazilian painter Beatriz Milhazes fuses two very different worldviews. Her abstract compositions, which can be seen in a line with modernist masters from Henri Matisse to Bridget Riley, are saturated with the colors and light of her native country. Her paintings are strewn with symbols of everyday life in Brazil, invoking carnival, traditional craftsmanship, and motifs from baroque to pop, all choreographed in an exuberant visual rhythm. The colorful atmosphere has an irresistible exotic allure, but as in the works of Paul Gauguin, we find a broken paradise in which darker, more melancholic tones resonate, both in the promises of tropical life and those of modernist abstraction.
In seeking this balance, Milhazes developed a special transfer technique in the late eighties, painting her motifs onto plastic sheets, gluing these to the canvas and letting them dry, and then peeling away the plastic once dry so that the paint remains on the canvas. This method allows the artist to layer surface upon surface and to achieve an iridescence somewhere between radiant aura and shimmering melancholy. Since her breakthrough in the early 1990s, Milhazes has extended the scope of her work to other media, producing screen prints, collages made of chocolate and candy wrappers, sculptures such as giant mobiles made of carnival decorations, site-specific projects that transform building facades into stained glass windows, and experiments with body and rhythm in collaboration with her sister Marcia's ballet ensemble.
This updated edition, which has been expanded to include works made as recently as 2020, explores all of the artist's creative phases, from her beginnings to the present, with over 300 of her works. The book was created in close collaboration with the artist, in both the selection of images and specially designed pages between chapters. It includes a conversation with editor Hans Werner Holzwarth in which the artist unravels her working methods and talks about the ideas and cultural background behind her work. An art historical essay by David Ebony, a poetic dictionary of Milhazes's key motifs by Adriano Pedrosa, and a detailed, updated artist biography by Luiza Interlenghi round off this comprehensive work.Also available in an Art Edition with a silkscreen print signed by Beatriz Milhazes
