The best of Czech Press Photo 20 Years
The Best of Czech Press Photo – obrazy dvou desetiletí je název zcela výjimečné publikace, která vyšla k otevření výstavy jubilejního 20.ročníku Czech Press Photo 2014. Na 496 stranách předkládá citově působivou obrazovou historii posledních dvaceti let, ale i pohled na podobu fotografie uplynulé doby. Jako v napínavém filmu zde defilují všechny „Fotografie roku“, a tak divák-čtenář znovu prožívá hlavní události a jevy jednotlivých let - válečné konflikty a přírodní katastrofy v dopadu na konkrétní osudy lidí, boj o dítě v dnešních rodinách, snahu jednotlivce postavit se rozpínavosti průmyslových koncernů, korupční aféry, které se šíří společností jako epidemie, ale i úsilí člověka zvítězit sám nad sebou. Je tu i přehled často překvapivých fotografií, kterým daly svou cenu děti, a také ty, jež v anketách oslovily na rozdíl od mezinárodních odborných porotců největší počet návštěvníků a získaly tak „Ceny diváků“. To, co je však vůbec nejpůsobivější, jsou přehledně uspořádané kapitoly věnované jednotlivým soutěžním kategoriím. V nich je možné na výběru těch nejlepších snímků z nejlepších postupně, rok za rokem sledovat, jak jsme v posledních dvou desetiletích žili, jak jsme se menili, čím vším jsme procházeli a co se dělo ve světě i bezprostředně kolem nás – v každodenním životě, ve sportu, ve společnosti, v politice, v přírodě i v nás samých … Úvodní text Daniely Mrázkové se zabývá nejen pohledem na současnost obrazového novinářství, ale je i vhledem do jeho budoucnosti. A totéž lze říci o komentářích členů mezinárodních porot Czech Press Photo.

The Penguin History of Modern Russia
Robert Service's The Penguin History of Modern Russia: From Tsarism to the Twenty-first Century provides a superb panorama of Russia in the modern age.
Russia's recent past has encompassed revolution, civil war, mass terror and two world wars, and the country is still undergoing huge change.
In his acclaimed history, now revised and updated with a new introduction and final chapter, Robert Service explores the complex, changing interaction between rulers and ruled from Tsar Nicholas II, through the Russian Revolutions of 1905 and 1917; from Lenin and Stalin through to Gorbachev, Yeltsin, Putin and beyond.
This new edition also discusses Russia's unresolved economic and social difficulties and its determination to regain its leading role on the world stage and explains how, despite the recent years of de-communization, the seven decades of communist rule which penetrated every aspect of life still continue to influence Russia today.

Lacná kniha Hrej vabank - The Game 4 (-70%)
Ona ztratila po jeho smrti část své duše.
On ztratil svého nejlepšího přítele, který mu stál po boku v dobrém i zlém.
Ale právě tahle tragédie by je mohla svést dohromady.
Kyle Daniels by nejraději ze své mysli vymazal dva dny svého života: Noc, kdy nebyl doma a jeho přítel zemřel, a den jeho pohřbu, kterého se nezúčastnil.
Teď odjíždí z Univerzity v Berkeley na prázdniny do svého rodného města. Verity Point v Oregonu už bez Cama není to, co býval. Je to jako návrat do prázdnoty. Jedinou útěchou a zároveň jediným pojítkem s jeho přítelem je Camova mladší sestra Roxanne.
Roxy Hughesová už ale není tou stejnou dívkou, jakou si Kyle pamatoval, než odjel studovat do Kalifornie. Zničená smrtí svého staršího bratra se dostala až na okraj propasti. Únik hledá v alkoholu a sexu – hlubina zapomnění je pro ni jediný lék, který ji dokáže zbavit hrůzy té osudné noci. Je totiž jediná, kdo viděl Cama umírat.
Kyle svému příteli slíbil, že pokud se mu něco přihodí, Roxy ochrání. Ale stačil jediný polibek, který vše změnil. Stala se pro něj něco víc než jen sestra jeho nejlepšího kamaráda. Je pro něj vším, po čem touží. Ale pokud nenajde způsob, jak ji vytáhnout z temných hlubin, do kterých se propadla, může ji potkat stejný osud jako jejího bratra...

Plautus was the single greatest influence on Western comedy. Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors and Moliere's The Miser are two subsequent classics directly based on Plautine originals. Plautus himself borrowed from the Greeks, but his jokes, rapid dialogue, bawdy humour, and irreverent characterizations are the original work of an undisputed genius. The comedies printed here show him at his best, and professor Segal's translations keep their fast, rollicking pace intact, making these the most readable and actable versions available. His introduction considers Plautus' place in ancient comedy, examines his continuing influence, and celebrates his power to entertain.

Obrazy starej Oravy / Images of the Old Orava Region
V impozantnej fotografickej tvorbe Jaroslava Sýkoru akoby ožíval martinčekovský génius. Svojskú krásu chodobných oravských dreveníc, svet miznúci do nenávratna, drsný tragikomický, zemitý kus našej vidieckej histórie zachytávajú Sýkorove čiernobiele fotografie až naturalisticky verne, s originalitou, ktorú ťažko vyjadriť slovami.

How to Lie with Maps: Third Edition
An instant classic when first published in 1991, How to Lie with Maps revealed how the choices mapmakers make—consciously or unconsciously—mean that every map inevitably presents only one of many possible stories about the places it depicts. The principles Mark Monmonier outlined back then remain true today, despite significant technological changes in the making and use of maps. The introduction and spread of digital maps and mapping software, however, have added new wrinkles to the ever-evolving landscape of modern mapmaking.
?Fully updated for the digital age, this new edition of How to Lie with Maps examines the myriad ways that technology offers new opportunities for cartographic mischief, deception, and propaganda. While retaining the same brevity, range, and humor as its predecessors, this third edition includes significant updates throughout as well as new chapters on image maps, prohibitive cartography, and online maps. It also includes an expanded section of color images and an updated list of sources for further reading.
