The Education of an Idealist
'Her highly personal and reflective memoir ... is a must-read for anyone who cares about our role in a changing world' Barack Obama
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY:
The New York Times * Time * The Economist * The Washington Post * Vanity Fair * Times Literary Supplement
'What can one person do?' In this vibrant, galvanizing memoir, human rights advocate and Pulitzer-Prize winning writer Samantha Power offers an urgent response to this question.
As she traces her path from Irish immigrant to war correspondent and activist to eventually becoming the youngest-ever US Ambassador to the United Nations, Power writes with a unique blend of suspenseful storytelling, vivid character portraits and disarming honesty.
Her account illuminates the challenges of navigating the halls of power while trying to put one's ideals into practice (and raise two young children along the way), and it shows how - even in the face of daunting challenges - each of us can make a difference.

Lacná kniha Crossing the Chasm: 3rd Edition (-50%)
The bible for bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets--now revised and updated with new insights into the realities of high-tech marketingIn Crossing the Chasm, Geoffrey A. Moore shows that in the Technology Adoption Life Cycle--which begins with innovators and moves to early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards--there is a vast chasm between the early adopters and the early majority. While early adopters are willing to sacrifice for the advantage of being first, the early majority waits until they know that the technology actually offers improvements in productivity. The challenge for innovators and marketers is to narrow this chasm and ultimately accelerate adoption across every segment. This third edition brings Moore's classic work up to date with dozens of new examples of successes and failures, new strategies for marketing in the digital world, and Moore's most current insights and findings. He also includes two new appendices, the first connecting the ideas in Crossing the Chasm to work subsequently published in his Inside the Tornado, and the second presenting his recent groundbreaking work for technology adoption models for high-tech consumer markets.

Resistance
Since the release of her first, career-defining solo album Little Earthquakes, Tori Amos has been one of the music industry's most enduring and ingenious artists. From her unnerving depiction of sexual assault in "Me and a Gun" to her post-9/11 album Scarlet's Walk to her latest album Native Invader, her work has never shied away from intermingling the personal with the political. Amos began playing piano as a teenager for the politically powerful at hotel bars in Washington, D.C., during the formative years of the post-Goldwater and then Koch-led Libertarian and Reaganite movements.
The story continues to her time as a hungry artist in L.A. to the subsequent three decades of her formidable music career. Amos explains how she managed to create meaningful, politically resonant work against patriarchal power structures-and how her proud declarations of feminism and her fight for the marginalized always proved to be her guiding light.
She teaches readers to engage with intention in this tumultuous global climate and speaks directly to supporters of #MeToo and #TimesUp, as well as young people fighting for their rights and visibility in the world. Filled with compassionate guidance and actionable advice-and using some of the most powerful, political songs in Amos's canon-this book is for readers determined to steer the world back in the right direction.

I Wish Someone Were Waiting For Me Somewhere
Following the publication of Anna Gavalda's international bestseller, "Hunting and Gathering", this book introduces us to Anna Gavalda's witty and dazzling collection of stories, "I Wish Someone Were Waiting For Me Somewhere", together with her heart
breaking and poignant novella, "Someone I Loved" - both published in the UK for the first time. "I Wish Someone Were Waiting For Me Somewhere" explores how a life can be changed irrevocably in just one fateful moment. A pregnant mother's plans for th

individuals involved. A simple tale, yet long in substance, "Someone I Loved" ends like most great love affairs, forever leaving you wanting just one more moment.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vá

Three Men in a Boat and Three Men on the Bummel
Other works may excel this in depth of thought and knowledge of human nature: other books may rival it in originality and size; but, for hopeless and incurable vivacity, nothing yet discovered can surpass it.' (Jerome, Preface to Three Men in a Boat). Three Men in a Boat describes a comic expedition by middle-class Victorians up the Thames to Oxford. It provides brilliant snap-shots of London's playground in the late 1880s, where the fashionable steam-launches of river swells encounter the hired skiffs of city clerks. The medley of social vignettes, farcical incidents, descriptions of river fashions, and reflections on the Thames's history, is interspersed with humorous anecdotes told by a natural raconteur. Three Men on the Bummel records a similar escapade, a break from the claustrophobia of suburban life some ten years later; their cycling tour in the Black Forest, at the height of the new bicycling craze, affords Jerome the opportunity for a light-hearted scrutiny of German social customs at a time of increasing general interest in a country that he loved. This account of middle-aged Englishmen abroad is spiced with typical Jeromian humour.

Mongol Empire: Genghis Khan, His Heirs and the Founding of Modern China
Genghis Khan is one of history's immortals: a leader of genius, driven by an inspiring vision for peaceful world rule. Believing he was divinely protected, Genghis united warring clans to create a nation and then an empire that ran across much of Asia. Under his grandson, Kublai Khan, the vision evolved into a more complex religious ideology, justifying further expansion. Kublai doubled the empire's size until, in the late 13th century, he and the rest of Genghis' 'Golden Family' controlled one fifth of the inhabited world. Along the way, he conquered all China, gave the nation the borders it has today, and then, finally, discovered the limits to growth. Genghis' dream of world rule turned out to be a fantasy. And yet, in terms of the sheer scale of the conquests, never has a vision and the character of one man had such an effect on the world. Charting the evolution of this vision, John Man provides a unique account of the Mongol Empire, from young Genghis to old Kublai, from a rejected teenager to the world's most powerful emperor.

The Hundred Year Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared
Sitting quietly in his room in an old people's home, Allan Karlsson is waiting for a party he doesn't want to begin. His one-hundredth birthday party to be precise. The Mayor will be there. The press will be there. But, as it turns out, Allan will not ...Escaping (in his slippers) through his bedroom window, into the flowerbed, Allan makes his getaway. And so begins his picaresque and unlikely journey involving criminals, several murders, a suitcase full of cash, and incompetent police. As his escapades unfold, Allan's earlier life is revealed. A life in which - remarkably - he played a key role behind the scenes in some of the momentous events of the twentieth century. Translated by Roy Bradbury.
Lacná kniha Obětina (-70%)
Trojromán Obětina má už v české literatuře 20. století nezanedbatelné místo. První část nazvaná Fialový anachoréta je parodií na svatoplukočechovskou epickou báseň, psaná „kvůli úspoře papíru“ do řádků. Je to pohádka pro dospělé, se vším všudy(!). Autor Jindřich Henry se v hlavním, spojujícím románu Obětina jako taková snaží sehnat nakladatele. Hlavní děj je jakýsi pulp-fiction thriller, bere si na paškál exilové literární poměry, ale polemizuje s tzv pokrokovostí vůbec, například v psychiatrii. Třetí román Pangerach je v hlavním ději zakomponován jako cosi „novicovi ku přečtení“ od již zavedeného autora Ronalda Jakeše (jméno je anagram Jana Křesadla háček je brán jako stěhovavý prvek). Je to klímovsko-chagallovský surrealistický příběh o světě, jehož řád a hodnoty podivně tají: protagonista například zjišťuje, že je za člověka jen převlečen. V této knize je ještě idylická pohádková vsuvka, balada, psaná též blankversem. Kniha je řemeslně mistrná, strukturou postmoderní, moralistní, velmi čtivá, arci-křesadlovská. Vřele doporučujeme všem, kteří dílo Jana Křesadla znají jen z doslechu.

Lacná kniha Shledání (-70%)
Je málo knih na světě, které tak dokonale, téměř symetricky a s neúprosnou vyvážeností odměřují protichůdné emoce. Zázrak osudového přátelství na prahu jinošství mezi příslušníkem prastaré aristokratické rodiny von Hohenfels a Hansem Schwarzem, synem židovského lékaře. Lyrický svět mladistvého zanícení a vpád nacismu. A samozřejmě neúprosný osud. I dokonalé přátelství je bezmocné vůči kolektivnímu šílenství, jež se zmocnilo Německa. Jde o "klasický mistrovský kus", jak napsal spisovatel Arthur Koestler. Snad je to tím, že Uhlman byl malíř a psal téměř vizuálně, nebo možná tím, že ho Erinye mučivě pronásledovaly, aby svůj příběh zaznamenal. Je to knížka, která mrazí i nadchne.
