Mars Volta - Octahedron 2LP

Lacná kniha The Maths of Life and Death
Maths is the story of the world around us, and the wisdom it gives us can be the difference between success and disaster.
We are all doing maths all the time, from the way we communicate with each other to the way we travel, from how we work to how we relax. Many of us are aware of this. But few of us really appreciate the full power of maths - the extent to which its influence is not only in every office and every home, but also in every courtroom and hospital ward.
In this eye-opening and extraordinary book, Yates explores the true stories of life-changing events in which the application - or misapplication - of mathematics has played a critical role: patients crippled by faulty genes and entrepreneurs bankrupted by faulty algorithms; innocent victims of miscarriages of justice and the unwitting victims of software glitches. We follow stories of investors who have lost fortunes and parents who have lost children, all because of mathematical misunderstandings.
Along the way, Yates arms us with simple mathematical rules and tools that can help us make better decisions in our increasingly quantitative society. You will discover why it's always sensible to question a statistic, often vital to ask for a second opinion and sometimes surprisingly handy to stick to the 37% rule...

The Beatles
Tato kniha je zcela nové ilustrované vydání nejprodávanější autorizované biografie The Beatles doplněné o nejnovější informace. Více než třicet let po prvním vydání a přes miliony slov, která byla od té doby o The Beatles publikována, je tato podrobná kniha Huntera Daviese stále jedinou autorizovanou biografií nejlegendárnější a nejvlivnější popové skupiny. Hunter Davies jako první a poslední spisovatel, který měl neomezený přístup ke všem čtyřem členům legendárních Beatles a jemuž se od nich dostalo plné podpory a pomoci, s nimi v letech 1967–68 strávil osmnáct měsíců, když byli jako skupina hudebně na vrcholu, a sbíral materiál, který dle Marshalla McLuhana vytvoří "dokument našeho století".
Autor strávil čas jak s The Beatles, tak dělal rozhovory s mnoha jejich blízkými přáteli a kamarády, kolegy, bývalými členy kapely, manželkami a bývalými manželkami. Jeho fascinující kniha zachycuje skupinu na vrcholu úspěchu, a to, jak se dostala do popředí veřejného zájmu, vysvětluje autentickými slovy jednotlivých členů skupiny či slovy těch, kteří s nimi tenkrát tento fenomenální úspěch prožívali.
Hunter Davies zůstal přítelem The Beatles i poté, co původní kniha vyšla, což mu umožnilo, aby knihu doplnil o rozsáhlou závěrečnou kapitolu, popisující, jak a proč se skupina rozpadla, zároveň tak mohl popsat nejnovější osudy a vývoj jejích členů a smrt Johna Lennona. Také odhaluje, jak byla tato kniha sepsaná a uvádí příběhy, které v prvním vydání uvést nemohl.Toto nové vydání Daviesova nepopiratelně celosvětového bestselleru je poprvé v hojné míře ilustrované a obsahuje dodatečně přidané fotografie, které nemohly být publikovány v roce 1968.
V revidovaném úvodu autor pohlíží na skutečnost, jak The Beatles a jejich hudba nadále ovlivňují miliony lidí na celém světě, říká nám, co stále žijící členové kapely dělali v letech po posledním vydání této práce, a zachycuje i smrt George Harrisona. Toto je zcela nepostradatelné čtení pro všechny fanoušky The Beatles, pro ty starší – i pro ty nové.

Heroes of Olympus: The Son of Neptun
This is the second title in this number one, bestselling spin-off series from "Percy Jackson" creator, Rick Riordan. This crazy messed up world of gods and monsters is "Percy Jackson's" reality, which pretty much sucks for him.

Because Percy finds himself at a camp for half-bloods, which doesn't ring any bells for him. There's just one name he remembers from his past. Annabeth. Only one thing is certain - Percy's questing days aren't over. He and fellow demigods Frank and Hazel must face the most important quest of all: the Prophecy of Seven. If they fail, it's not just their camp at risk. Percy's old life, the gods, and the entire world might be destroyed...
The Complete Peanuts 1973-1974: Volume 12
The 12th volume of Peanuts features a number of tennis strips and several extended sequences involving Peppermint Patty's friend Marcie (including a riotous, rarely seen sequence in which Marcie's costume-making and hairstyling skills utterly spoil a skating competition for PP), so it seems only right that this volume's introduction should be served up by Schulz's longtime friend, tennis champion (and 2009 Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient) Billie Jean King.
This volume also picks up on a few loose threads from the previous year, as the mysterious "Poochie" shows up in the flesh; Linus and Lucy's new kid brother "Rerun" makes his first appearance, is almost immediately drafted onto the baseball team (where, thanks to his tiny strike zone, he wins a game), and embarks on his first terrifying journey on the back of his mom's bike; and, in one of Peanuts' oddest recurring storylines, the schoolhouse Sally used to talk to starts talking, or at least thinking, back at her!
The Complete Peanuts 1973-1974 also includes one of the all-time classic Peanuts sequences, in which Charlie Brown's baseball-oriented hallucinations finally manifest themselves in a baseball-shaped rash on his head. Forced to conceal the embarrassing discoloration with a bag worn over his head, Charlie Brown goes to camp as "Mister Sack" and discovers that, shorn of his identity, he's suddenly well liked and successful.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone
"This special edition of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has a gorgeous new cover illustration by Kazu Kibuishi. Inside is the full text of the original novel, with decorations by Mary GrandPre. "Harry Potter has never been the star of a Quidditch team, scoring points while riding a broom far above the ground. He knows no spells, has never helped to hatch a dragon, and has never worn a cloak of invisibility. All he knows is a miserable life with the Dursleys, his horrible aunt and uncle, and their abominable son, Dudley -- a great big swollen spoiled bully. Harry's room is a tiny closet at the foot of the stairs, and he hasn't had a birthday party in eleven years. But all that is about to change when a mysterious letter arrives by owl messenger: a letter with an invitation to an incredible place that Harry -- and anyone who reads about him -- will find unforgettable. For it's there that he finds not only friends, aerial sports, and magic in everything from classes to meals, but a great destiny that's been waiting for him... if Harry can survive the encounter.

The Powerful and the Damned
The real scoop isn't on the front page
'As FT editor, I was a privileged interlocutor to people in power around the world, each offering unique insights into high-level decision-making and political calculation, often in moments of crisis. These diaries offer snapshots of leadership in an age of upheaval...'
Lionel Barber was Editor of the Financial Times for the tech boom, the global financial crisis, the rise of China, Brexit, and mainstream media's fight for survival in the age of fake news.
In this unparalleled, no-holds-barred diary of life behind the headlines, he reveals the private meetings and exchanges with political leaders on the eve of referendums, the conversations with billionaire bankers facing economic meltdown, exchanges with Silicon Valley tech gurus and pleas from foreign emissaries desperate for inside knowledge, all against the backdrop of a wildly shifting media landscape.
The result is a fascinating - and at times scathing - portrait of power in our modern age; who has it, what it takes and what drives the men and women with the world at their feet. Featuring close encounters with Trump, Cameron, Blair, Putin, Merkel and Mohammed Bin Salman and many more, this is a rare portrait of the people who continue to shape our world and who quite literally, make the news.
