Out of our Minds: Learning to be Creative
"It is often said that education and training are the keys to the future. They are, but a key can be turned in two directions. Turn it one way andyou lock resources away, even from those they belong to. Turn it the otherway and you release resources and give people back to themselves. To realizeour true creative potential in our organizations, in our schools and in our communities we need to think differently about ourselves and to actdifferently towards each other. We must learn to be creative." Ken Robinson PRAISE FOR OUT OF OUR MINDS "Ken Robinson writes brilliantly about the different ways in which creativity is undervalued and ignored ...especially in our educational systems." John Cleese "Out of Our Minds explains why being creative in today'sworld is a vital necessity. This book is not to be missed." Ken Blanchard, co-author of The One-minute Manager and The Secret "If ever there was a time when creativity was necessary for the survival andgrowth of any organization, it is now. This book, more than any other I know, providesimportant insights on how leaders can evoke and sustain those creative juices." Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business, University of Southern California; Thomas S. Murphy Distinguished Rresearch Fellow, Harvard Business School; Best-selling Author, Geeks and Geezers "All corporate leaders should read this book." Richard Scase, Author and Business Forecaster "This really is a remarkable book. It does for human resources what Rachel Carson's Silent Spring did for the environment." Wally Olins, Founder, Wolff-olins "Books about creativity are not always creative. Ken Robinson's is a welcome exception" Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, c.s. and d.j. Davidson Professor of Psychology, Claremont Graduate University; Director, Quality of Life Research Center; Best-selling Author, Flow "The best analysis I've seen of the disjunction between the kinds of intelligence that we have traditionally honored in schools and the kinds ofcreativity that we need today in our organizations and our society."

Hokej a sloboda
Jedným z vrcholov studenej vojny v druhej polovici 20. storočia boli súboje československých hokejistov proti hokejovej reprezentácii Sovietskeho zväzu. Ich zápasy nikdy neboli len športovým zápolením; pre hráčov z malej krajiny uprostred Európy boli aj bojom za dušu svojho národa, žijúceho v jarme neslobody. Boli to v pravom zmysle slova súboje Dávida s Goliášom.
Kniha Hokej a sloboda rozpráva príbeh o tom, ako sa v Československu hokej stal pre milióny Čechov a Slovákov symbolom odporu proti ideologickej a vojenskej mašinérii Sovietskeho zväzu. Daný príbeh sa začína písať tesne po druhej svetovej vojne, následne sa prepletá prakticky celými modernými dejinami Československa a po roku 1993 aj dejinami Česka a Slovenska ako dvoch nezávislých a samostatných krajín. Najprv sledujeme drámu československých hokejistov v 50. rokoch, keď eštebáci a ich ruskí poradcovia rozprášili národný hokejový tím a mnohých reprezentantov v zinscenovaných súdnych procesoch odsúdili na dlhoročné tresty väzenia v krutých podmienkach jáchymovských uránových baní. Ďalej sme svedkami toho, ako československý hokej pomaly vstáva z mŕtvych a začína sa formovať jedna z najsilnejších hokejových generácií okolo odchovancov havlíčkobrodského hokeja bratov Holíkovcov a Jana Suchého, ako aj okolo budúcich veľkých hokejových hviezd, akými boli Václav Nedomanský, Jozef Golonka, Jaroslav Jiřík či Vladimír Dzurilla.
Po vtrhnutí do Československa polmiliónovej armády krajín Varšavskej zmluvy na čele so ZSSR v auguste 1968 sa práve tejto hokejovej generácii podarilo konečne červenú hokejovú mašinériu poraziť. Slávne víťazstvá nad Sovietmi na olympiáde v Grenobli v roku 1968 a najmä dve víťazstvá na MS 1969 v Štokholme sa stanú pevnou súčasťou moderných dejín Československa a trvalým symbolom ľudového vzdoru proti okupácii a neslobode.
S tým súvisí aj ďalšia kapitola československého hokeja, totiž úteky hokejistov do zahraničia, počnúc Václavom Nedomanským a nekončiac legendárnym útekom vari najslávnejšej bratskej hokejovej trojice na svete bratov Šťastných.
Osud to napokon zariadil tak, že dve najslávnejšie víťazstvá teraz už dvoch národných mužstiev – Čechov na ZOH v Nagane 1998 a Slovákov na MS v Göteborgu 2002 – dosiahli národné reprezentácie vo finálových dueloch akoby symbolicky práve proti Rusku.
Hokej a sloboda je knihou, ktorá dokazuje, že šport vždy súvisel s politikou a hokej v Československu dvojnásobne.
Zlatá slova českého fotbalu
Kdo má rád fotbal, a takových je mnoho, bude se s touhle knížkou smát, protože hlášky ze světa kopané jsou především veselé a občas i mile vulgární. Ale někdy vás taky zamrazí, jelikož se ve fotbale točí hodně peněz a s nimi tu krouží i švindl a úplatky... Spisovatel a novinář Štěpán Filípek sbírá povedené výroky hráčů, trenérů i klubových bossů už dlouho a nyní vám tisíc takových hlášek nabízí v knize, která je vlastně i zábavnou kronikou posledních patnácti let našeho fotbalu. Z plejády proslulých i méně slavných pánů v dresech a bafuňářských oblecích se tady ve speciálních kapitolkách vyloupnou i fotbaloví baviči Horváth a Švancara, komentátorský šoumen Bosák, mediální rozumbrada Luhový a bohém Vízek. Své místo tu má i veliký čachrář Horník neboli "Ivánek, kamarád." Každý ze stovek výroků doprovází autorova stručná glosa s rozvedením vtipu či doplněním souvislostí, každou ze šestnácti kapitol otevírá někdy delší, jindy kratší, ale vždy hodně zasvěcený úvod. Fotbal je natolik velký sport, že od své špičky až po pralesní ligu prostupuje celou společností. Občas jí dává radost, občas zase ne, ale je vlastně tak trochu i jejím zrcadlem. Vždyť nezní snad někomu povědomě slova svazového místopředsedy Jaroslava Vacka, který o peníze ve fotbale pečoval natolik urputně, že mu začali říkat Jarda Miliarda? "Hráči vás zbožňují," pravil Vacek, "dokud jim dáváte prachy. Až jim dáte poslední korunu, překročí vaši mrtvolu, řeknou, že jste blbec, a odcházejí do dáli."

The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet - Wayfarers 1
SHORTLISTED FOR THE BAILEY'S WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION
'A quietly profound, humane tour de force' Guardian
The beloved debut novel that will restore your faith in humanity
#SmallAngryPlanet
When Rosemary Harper joins the crew of the Wayfarer, she isn't expecting much. The ship, which has seen better days, offers her everything she could possibly want: a small, quiet spot to call home for a while, adventure in far-off corners of the galaxy, and distance from her troubled past.
But Rosemary gets more than she bargained for with the Wayfarer. The crew is a mishmash of species and personalities, from Sissix, the friendly reptillian pilot, to Kizzy and Jenks, the constantly sparring engineers who keep the ship running. Life on board is chaotic, but more or less peaceful - exactly what Rosemary wants.
Until the crew are offered the job of a lifetime: the chance to build a hyperspace tunnel to a distant planet. They'll earn enough money to live comfortably for years... if they survive the long trip through war-torn interstellar space without endangering any of the fragile alliances that keep the galaxy peaceful.
But Rosemary isn't the only person on board with secrets to hide, and the crew will soon discover that space may be vast, but spaceships are very small indeed.

The Euro - And its Threat to the Future of Europe
Solidarity and prosperity fostered by economic integration: this principle has underpinned the European project from the start, and the establishment of a common currency was supposed to be its most audacious and tangible achievement. Since 2008, however, the European Union has ricocheted between stagnation and crisis. The inability of the eurozone to match the recovery in the USA and UK has exposed its governing structures, institutions and policies as dysfunctional and called into question the viability of a common currency shared by such different economies as Germany and Greece. Designed to bring the European Union closer together, the euro has actually done the opposite: after nearly a decade without growth, unity has been replaced with dissent and enlargements with prospective exits. Joseph Stiglitz argues that Europe's stagnation and bleak outlook are a direct result of the fundamental flaws inherent in the euro project - economic integration outpacing political integration with a structure that promotes divergence rather than convergence. Money relentlessly leaves the weaker member states and goes to the strong, with debt accumulating in a few ill-favoured countries. The question then is: Can the euro be saved? Laying bare the European Central Bank's misguided inflation-only mandate and explaining why austerity has condemned Europe to unending stagnation, Stiglitz outlines the fundamental reforms necessary to the structure of the eurozone and the policies imposed on the member countries suffering the most. But the same lack of sufficient political solidarity that led to the creation of a flawed euro twenty years ago suggests that these reforms are unlikely to be adopted. Hoping to avoid the huge costs associated with current policies, Stiglitz proposes two other alternatives: a well-managed end to the common currency; or a bold, new system dubbed 'the flexible euro.' This important book, by one of the world's leading economists, addresses the euro-crisis on a bigger intellectual scale than any predecessor.
