We Need to Talk About Kevin
Eva never really wanted to be a mother; certainly not the mother of the unlovable boy who murdered seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker and a teacher who tried to befriend him. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with marriage, career, family, parenthood and Kevin's horrific rampage in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her absent husband, Franklyn. Uneasy with the sacrifices and social demotion of motherhood from the start, Eva fears that her alarming dislike for her own son may be responsible for driving him so nihilistically off the rails.

Lacná kniha David Bowie - The Man Who Fell to Earth (-90%)
Loving the Alien Behind the scenes of Nic Roeg's 1976 sci-fi masterpiece starring David Bowie First advertised as a "mind-stretching experience," Nicolas Roeg's 1976 The Man Who Fell to Earth stunned the cinema world. A tour-de-force of science fiction as art form, the movie brought not only hallucinatory visuals and a haunting exploration of contemporary alienation, but also glam-rock legend David Bowie in his lead role debut as paranoid alien Newton. Based on Walter Tevis's 1963 sci-fi fable of the same title, The Man Who Fell to Earth follows alien Newton from his arrival on earth in search of water; his transition to wealthy entrepreneur, leveraging the advanced technologies of his native planet; his sexual awakening with the young Mary-Lou; and then the discovery of his alien identity, his imprisonment, abandonment, and descent into alcoholism. Throughout, Roeg coaxed a beguiling performance from his cast, presenting not only Bowie in ethereal space-traveler glory, but also pitch-perfect supporting performances from Candy Clark, Rip Torn, and Buck Henry. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of this cult movie, TASCHEN's The Man Who Fell to Earth presents a plenitude of stills and behind-the-scenes images by unit photographer David James, including numerous shots of Bowie at his playful and ambiguous best. A new introductory essay explores the shooting of the film and it's lasting impact, drawing upon an exclusive interview with David James, who brings firsthand insights into the making of this sci-fi masterwork. About the series: Bibliotheca Universalis-- Compact cultural companions celebrating the eclectic TASCHEN universe at an unbeatable, democratic price! Since we started our work as cultural archaeologists in 1980, the name TASCHEN has become synonymous with accessible, open-minded publishing. Bibliotheca Universalis brings together nearly 100 of our all-time favorite titles in a neat new format so you can curate your own affordable library of art, anthropology, and aphrodisia. Bookworm's delight -- never bore, always excite! Text in English, French, and German

Ako rozvíjať porozumenie textu u žiaka
Táto knižka je určená učiteľom, ďalším odborníkom i ostatnej verejnosti, ktorá sa zaujíma o problematiku porozumenia textu u žiaka.
Porozumenie textu, hlavne učebného textu, je dôležitou podmienkou "vstupu" žiaka do učiva. Učenie sa nie je zmyslu
plné a nie je ani efektívne, keď v ňom chýba porozumenie. Žiaľ, pohľad do učební základných škôl nám ukazuje, že žiaci sa často naučia učivo naspamäť bez hlbšieho porozumenia a potom ho viacmenej mechanicky reprodukujú. Má to všetky znaky neefektívn
eho učenia sa, pretože takto naučené učivo sa zle spája s iným učivom, žiak nechápe súvislosti ani aplikačné možnosti učiva a rýchlo ho zabúda. Nielen to. Vzniká uňho predstava, že učenie sa je akási formálna činnosť, založená na princípe rýchlo sa
naučiť, získať známku a potom rýchlo zabudnúť.
Čítanie s porozumením však nie je len nástrojom osvojovania si učiva, ale aj základom chápania sveta. Bez porozumenia žije človek v nevedomosti, je nesamostatný, možno ním ľahšie manipulovať. Porozumen
ie textov (školských i mimoškolských) hrá mimoriadnu úlohu vo vývine dieťaťa. Keďže text prináša nové informácie, núti ho myslieť, uvažovať, formuje jeho hodnoty a ovplyvňuje postoje k svetu.
Čítanie a porozumenie textu nie je však len otázkou učeni
a sa žiaka a jeho interakcie s učiteľom. Žiakovu kompetenciu porozumieť text ovplyvňujú rodiča a iní dospelí, azda i priatelia a rovesníci. V tej či onej miere obsahom textu dieťa vstupuje do interakcie s inými ľuďmi, hovorí o prečítanom, hodnotí ho.
Čítanie teda nie je len individuálny akt, ale aj sociálna činnosť.
Knižku, ktorú máte pred sebou, napísali pracovníci Katedry pedagogiky Pedagogickej fakulty Univerzity Komenského v Bratislave, ktorí majú skúsenosti ako učitelia i ako výskumníci čí
tania a učenia sa z textu. V tejto knižke odovzdávajú čitateľom svoje poznanie. Impulzom, ktorý ich viedol k napísaniu tejto knihy, boli okrem iného slabé výkony žiakov v medzinárodných štúdiách čitateľskej gramotnosti PIRLS a PISA. Azda táto knižka
osvetlí záujemcom, čo je podstata čítania, porozumenia textu a gramotnosti a ako možno tieto zručnosti a schopnosti rozvíjať u žiaka v škole i v rodine.
Kniha má pomerne priamočiaru štruktúru výkladu. Začína sa charakterizovaním predmetu čítania t
extu. Potom nasledujú kapitoly, ktoré sa venujú základom čítania, porozumeniu textu a jeho rozvíjaniu, ako aj rozvoju kritického myslenia na základe čítania textu. Osobitná kapitola je venovaná vysvetleniu konštruktivistickej koncepcie vyučovania. Ke
ďže dôležitou podmienkou rozvoja gramotnosti je motivácia čítať, venujeme jej samostatnú kapitolu. Posledná kapitola posledná pozíciou, nie významom sa zaoberá podporou čítania v rodine.

How to Read Oceanic Art
An engaging explanation of Oceanic art and an important gateway to wider appreciation of Oceanic heritage and visual culture
Art from Oceania, the region encompassing the islands of the central and south Pacific, spans hundreds of distinct artistic processes, formats, and mediums. Many people's exposure to Oceanic art comes through its influence on the work of European artists, and therefore Oceanic works themselves often remain difficult for Western viewers to interpret and comprehend. How to Read Oceanic Art, the third book in a series of guides to understanding different artistic genres, helps elucidate this subject through explanation of specific objects.
The book analyzes the most illustrative Oceanic pieces from the Metropolitan Museum's collection-including lively painted masks, powerful figurines, and intricately carved wooden poles-which together represent the extraordinary diversity of artistic traditions in the region. Attractive photography and clear, engaging texts explain how and why various works were made as well as how they were used. This publication is an invaluable resource for art historical study, and also an important gateway to wider appreciation of Oceanic heritage and visual culture.

Hory shora 4. vydání
Úspěšný horolezec Radek Jaroš dosáhl jako první Čech a patnáctý člověk v historii vůbec „koruny Himálaje“, tedy zdolal všech 14 osmitisícovek bez použití kyslíku. V knize Hory shora se shrnují jeho úspěchy do roku 2006, kdy pokořil prvních šest osmitisícových hor, čímž se přiblížil polovině. Od roku 1998, kdy jako druhý Čech bez použití kyslíku zdolal vrchol Mount Everestu, se této metě cílevědomě přibližoval. A právě autentické líčení dramatických okolností úspěšných, ale i neúspěšných výstupů (čtyřikrát se marně pokoušel o K2, než se mu to v roce 2014 na pátý pokus podařilo) je obsahem této působivé knihy.
