e connects deeply with her subjects. This collection includes candid studies of such noted personalities as Jane Fonda, Robert Kennedy, Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns and Kiki Smith.
Dubliners
Joyce's first major work, written when he was only twenty-five, brought his city to the world for the first time. His stories are rooted in the rich detail of Dublin life, portraying ordinary, often defeated lives with unflinching realism. He writes
of social decline, sexual desire and exploitation, corruption and personal failure, yet creates a brilliantly compelling, unique vision of the world and of human experience.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus

OWC Complete Stalky & Co.
Kipling portrays school as the first stage of a much larger game, a pattern-maker for the experiences of life. Implied throughout the stories is the question 'What happened to these fifteen-year-old boys, and how did the lessons they learned at schoo
l apply to the world of warfare and imperial government?' The stories are based on Kipling's own school, the United Services College at Westward Ho! in Devon, which prepared boys destined for the army or for colonial service; Kipling himself appears
as the subordinate character, Beetle. This edition includes five Stalky stories which did not appear in the original volume, and thus constitutes a Complete Stalky & Co.

Básník
I Munjolův „Básník“ naplňuje očekávání téměř každého nadprůměrného čtenáře. Má děj, postavy, pohyb, je vtipný, kousavý, kultivovaný, nervní, intelektuální, je to text, který sice jen z určitého úhlu, zároveň však sugestivně a ve velké míře zasvěceně překládá životní peripetie jedné mýty přehlcené osoby, toulavého básníka Kim Sakkata. I Munjol nemívá jednoznačné postavy ve smyslu banálních opozic. Objektivní hrdinové ho nezajímají, zaostřuje spíš na lidi komplikované. Jeho opakujícím typem je člověk vybočující mimo průměr, který ho ničí a nakonec zlikviduje. Jeho Kim Sakkat není vyloženě sympatická, kladná postava, je živý se všemi vrozenými i získanými vášněmi, nectnostmi a jednotlivými skutky. Ani děj není to, co chce I Munjol vystavit do popředí. Děj je jen podpůrný a v jistém smyslu osvěžuje školní paměť korejského čtenáře. Autor primárně sleduje vývoj jednoho mimořádného básníka, který se jako mimořádný nenarodil, ale sám dospěl do stadia, kdy mu jinakost jeho poezie zajistila to, čemu nelogicky říkáme nesmrtelnost. A tuto poslední fázi, kdy se poezie nepíše pro další generace, ale stává se osobním prožitkem mimo běžné struktury zápisu, už nechává zcela volně ubíhat k nekonečnu plynoucímu, mystickému zážitku.

David Hockney

Little David loved to draw and looked at the world in his own unique way. He always knew what his path in life would be… he would be an artist!
He went to art school and worked day and night to hone his drawing skills. He sold his first painting as a student, and in just five years he had a sell-out solo show of his work. When he moved from the UK to sunny California, he became known for creating bright, bold paintings.
From the Grand Canyon to the Yorkshire hills of home, David painted fantastic landscapes, including one made of 50 canvases all stitched together. An artist who delights in constantly reinventing himself, to this day David is eager to share his colourful work, and himself, with the whole world.
This inspiring book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the incredible young poet and activist’s life so far.
Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling biography series for kids that explores the lives of outstanding people, from designers and artists to scientists and activists. All of them achieved incredible things, yet each began life as a child with a dream.
This empowering series of books offers inspiring messages to children of all ages, in a range of formats. The board books are told in simple sentences, perfect for reading aloud to babies and toddlers. The hardback and paperback versions present expanded stories for beginning readers. With rewritten text for older children, the treasuries each bring together a multitude of dreamers in a single volume. You can also collect a selection of the books by theme in boxed gift sets. Activity books and a journal provide even more ways to make the lives of these role models accessible to children.
Inspire the next generation of outstanding people who will change the world with Little People, BIG DREAMS!

Průvodce odpadovým hospodářstvím
Legislativní úprava odpadů je velice rozsáhlá, autoři se proto rozhodli zaměřit na praktické problémy, s nimiž se původci potýkají nejčastěji. Vytvořili přehlednou a srozumitelnou publikaci obsahující řadu praktických příkladů. Jsou v ní rozebrány situace, které nastávají nejčastěji, a to v hojně provozovaných oborech (např. ve stavebnictví). Příručka pomůže podnikatelským subjektům k nekonfliktnímu průběhu případných kontrol České inspekce životního prostředí, týkajících se odpadového hospodářství. Nepřináší univerzální řešení všech problémů, ale měla by pomoci firmám k nastavení podnikového systému nakládání s odpady Autoři jsou zkušenými praktiky, kteří se již 20 let pohybují v problematice zpracování dokumentace pro odpadové hospodářství, zastupování firem ve správních řízeních včetně řešení správních deliktů a řádných a mimořádných opravných prostředků proti rozhodnutím veřejné správy, poradenství v oblasti aplikace práva životního prostředí, případně komplexního externího výkonu služeb podnikového ekologa. Pokud čtenář narazí ve své praxi na situaci, která není řešitelná pomocí informací v této příručce uvedených, není nic jednoduššího, než autory kontaktovat a svůj konkrétní problém s nimi konzultovat. Publikace vychází z právního stavu po novele zákona o odpadech č. 169/2013 Sb., (novela nabyla účinnosti dne 1. 10. 2013).
