Lacná kniha Híres cukrászdák és kávéházak / Famous Confectioneries and Coffee Houses
"Ahol nem a helyszínen készül a sütemény az nem igazi cukrászda - a hivatalos nomenklatúra szerint. Szakmailag sem az. Az egy süteménybolt, de nem cukrászda. Ahogy nem lehet vendéglő, ahová ételhordóban viszik a máshol főzött fogásokat, úgy nem igazi cukrászda, ahol nem helyben készülnek a sütemények. Könyvünk ilyen igazi és méltán híres cukrászdák, csokoládéműhelyek és kávéházak pazar seregszemléje." (a Kiadó)

Folklore and Avantgarde: The Reception of Popular Traditions in the Age of Modernism
This publication examines in depth the in-fluence of folkloric traditions on the pioneers of Modernismin the development of their new artistic language. Craft objects and folk art are contrasted with masterpieces by artists of the avant-garde like Josef Albers, Sonia Delaunay, Johannes Itten, Wassily Kandinsky, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Pablo Picasso, Charles Sheeler and Sophie TaeuberArp.
A century after the emergence of Modernism in Europe and America, this standard work aims at a new assessment of the period. Towards the end of the nineteenth century many artists and architects found inspiration in local folk art. Private collectors, museums and artists began to collect and exhibit it. The enthusiasm for traditional craft techniques increased as a result of the threat posed by the rise of industrialisation. The focus in this volume lies on the reception of African, folk and peasant art and textile handicrafts. The phenomenon is discussed by international authors and is demonstrated by means of 350 illustrations.

A gyalog - The Pawn
Gabriel Miller tornádóként söpört végig az életemen. Váratlanul, mindent elpusztított. Kíméletlen megtorlással állt bosszút az apámon, aki egy kórházi ágyon végezte, nincstelenül. Miatta a főiskolát is abbahagytam, hogy gondoskodjak róla, hiszen már csak ő maradt nekem. A családi házat is csak egy módon menthettem meg. Csupán egyetlen értékem maradt, a szüzességem, amit egy titkos aukción megvásároltak. Gabriel Miller mindenhol ott van. Mélyebb játszmát űz, mint gondolnám. Minden lépéssel közelebb kerülök hozzá, az érzékisége rabul ejt, miközben minden újabb titokkal darabokra tépi a lelkem. A végső játszma után biztos, hogy csak egyikőnk marad talpon.

Planting The World: Joseph Banks And His Collectors
A bold new history of how botany and global plant collecting - centred at Kew Gardens and driven by Joseph Banks - transformed the earth.
Botany was the darling and the powerhouse of the eighteenth century. As European ships ventured across the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans, discovery bloomed. Bounties of new plants were brought back, and their arrival meant much more than improved flowerbeds - it offered a new scientific frontier that would transform Europe's industry, medicine, eating and drinking habits, and even fashion.
Joseph Banks was the dynamo for this momentous change. As botanist for James Cook's great voyage to the South Pacific on the Endeavour, Banks collected plants on a vast scale, armed with the vision - as a child of the Enlightenment - that to travel physically was to advance intellectually. His thinking was as intrepid as Cook's seafaring: he commissioned radically influential and physically daring expeditions such as those of Francis Masson to the Cape Colony, George Staunton to China, George Caley to Australia, William Bligh to Tahiti and Jamaica, among many others.
Jordan Goodman's epic history follows these high seas adventurers and their influence in Europe, as well as taking us back to the early years of Kew Gardens, which Banks developed devotedly across the course of his life, transforming it into one of the world's largest and most diverse botanical gardens.
In a rip-roaring global expedition, based on original sources in many languages, Goodman gives a momentous history of how the discoveries made by Banks and his collectors advanced scientific understanding around the world.
