Einstein in Time and Space
DROPOUT. PACIFIST. PHYSICIST. CASANOVA. REFUGEE. REBEL. GENIUS.
THINK YOU KNOW EINSTEIN? THINK AGAIN
His face is instantly recognisable. His name is shorthand for genius. Today, he's a figurehead as much as a man, symbolic of things larger than himself: of scientific progress, of the human mind, even of the age. But who was Einstein really?
The Nobel Prize-winning physicist who discovered relativity, black holes and E = mc2, dined with Charlie Chaplin in Hollywood and was the inspiration for (highly radioactive) element 99, Albert Einstein was also a high school dropout with an FBI file 1,400 pages long.
In this book, Samuel Graydon brings history's most famous scientist back to life. From his lost daughter to escaping the Nazis, from his love letters to unlikely inventions, from telling jokes to cheer up his sad parrot Bibo to refusing the Presidency of Israel, through the discoveries and thought experiments that changed science, Einstein in Time and Space tells 99 unforgettable stories of the man who redefined how we view our universe and our place within it.

Circe
Woman. Witch. Myth. Mortal. Outcast. Lover. Destroyer. Survivor. CIRCE.
In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. Circe is a strange child - not powerful and terrible, like her father, nor gorgeous and mercenary like her mother. Scorned and rejected, Circe grows up in the shadows, at home in neither the world of gods or mortals. But Circe has a dark power of her own: witchcraft. When her gift threatens the gods, she is banished to the island of Aiaia where she hones her occult craft, casting spells, gathering strange herbs and taming wild beasts. Yet a woman who stands alone will never be left in peace for long - and among her island's guests is an unexpected visitor: the mortal Odysseus, for whom Circe will risk everything.
So Circe sets forth her tale, a vivid, mesmerizing epic of family rivalry, love and loss - the defiant, inextinguishable song of woman burning hot and bright through the darkness of a man's world.

We Are Bellingcat
'John le Carre demystified the intelligence services; Higgins has demystified intelligence gathering itself' Financial Times
'Uplifting . . . Riveting . . . What will fire people through these pages, gripped, is the focused, and extraordinary investigations that Bellingcat runs . . . Each runs as if the concluding chapter of a Holmesian whodunit' Telegraph
'We Are Bellingcat is Higgins's gripping account of how he reinvented reporting for the internet age . . . A manifesto for optimism in a dark age' Luke Harding, Observer
How did a collective of self-taught internet sleuths end up solving some of the biggest crimes of our time?
Bellingcat, the home-grown investigative unit, is redefining the way we think about news, politics and the digital future. Here, their founder - a high-school dropout on a kitchen laptop - tells the story of how they created a whole new category of information-gathering, galvanising citizen journalists across the globe to expose war crimes and pick apart disinformation, using just their computers.
From the downing of Malaysia Flight 17 over the Ukraine to the sourcing of weapons in the Syrian Civil War and the identification of the Salisbury poisoners, We Are Bellingcat digs deep into some of Bellingcat's most successful investigations. It explores the most cutting-edge tools for analysing data, from virtual-reality software that can build photorealistic 3D models of a crime scene, to apps that can identify exactly what time of day a photograph was taken.
Jane utíká, 5. vydání
Jane Whittakerová najednou neví, kdo je. Nevzpomíná si na své jméno, netuší, kolik jí je let. Bloudí ulicemi Bostonu v zakrvácených šatech a s deseti tisíci dolary v kapse. Nezbývá jí než důvěřovat hezkému mladíkovi, o němž říkají, že je to její muž. Pomáhají jí vůbec léky, které musí brát? Neprohlubují spíše jen její zmatenost? Jane se odhodlaně pouští do nerovného boje. Musí se dopátrat pravdy a získat zpátky svou paměť i život. Krok za krokem rozmotává pavučinu rafinovaného zla a uvolňuje smyčku, která ji rdousí. Je v tom však úplně sama, nikdo „bláznivé“ Jane nechce věřit…

We, Hominids
The Dutch bestseller
Nominated for Le Prix Nicolas Bouvier
WHO ARE WE? WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT FROM ANIMALS? WHAT MAKES US HUMAN?
In this charming, thought-provoking book, one of Holland's greatest non-fiction writers hunts down answers to humanity's most fundamental questions: Who are we? What makes us different from animals? With an ancient skull as his starting point, he travels the globe, tracing the search for the first human being: the missing link between humans and apes.
Westerman introduces us to the world of skull hunters – leading experts in our fossil ancestry – whose lives are just as fascinating as those of their primeval discoveries. He astutely reconsiders the work of illustrious paleoanthropologists in the light of new DNA technology, postcolonialism, and the rise of women in this male-dominated field. Westerman discovers a plethora of origin hypotheses and shows how any theory of who we are and where we come from is coloured by the zeitgeist.
We, Hominids is a compelling mixture of reportage, travelogue and essay – reminiscent of Bruce Chatwin or Ryszard Kapuscinski – written by a brilliant storyteller and thinker.

Rebeka
Dokáže láska uzdraviť dve zlomené srdcia?
Keď Rebeke zomrie otec, začne sa o ňu starať jej brat Laban. Rebeka si je istá, že sa jej život navždy zmení. Hoci mala byť už dávno vydatá, Laban čaká na to, ktorý muž ponúkne čo najvyššiu cenu, aby si naplnil vlastné vrecká. Ale potom Rebeka využije svoju šancu. Odíde z domova, aby sa vydala za svojho bratranca Izáka, ktorého nikdy predtým nevidela. Vtedy dostáva nádej na sľubnú budúcnosť. Keď sa rozhodne odísť z domu, netuší, akú úžasnú, ale zároveň náročnú cestu má pred sebou.
Rebekino rozhodnutie je ťažko skúšané. Prežíva radosť z novej lásky, ale aj horkosť z nedorozumenia a zrady. Medzi ňou a Izákom sa vytvorí príliš široká priepasť na to, aby sa dala prekročiť. Dokáže dôverovať Bohu Abraháma a Izáka, že urobí most cez túto priepasť?
Pripojte sa k autorke bestsellerov Jill Eileen Smith, ktorá vypĺňa prázdne miesta okolo tajomného života Rebeky.

And this does not mean conducting superficial conversations, but rather specifically addressing the needs of the people you are talking to. This book shows you what you can do to find the right and exactly fitting people and to build up long-lasting, fruitful contacts.
