A History of Modern Britain
A History of Modern Britain by Andrew Marr confronts head-on the victory of shopping over politics. It tells the story of how the great political visions of New Jerusalem or a second Elizabethan Age, rival idealisms, came to be defeated by a culture of consumerism, celebrity and self-gratification. In each decade, political leaders think they know what they are doing, but find themselves confounded. Every time, the British people turn out to be stroppier and harder to herd than predicted.
Throughout, Britain is a country on the edge - first of invasion, then of bankruptcy, then on the vulnerable front line of the Cold War and later in the forefront of the great opening up of capital and migration now reshaping the world. This history follows all the political and economic stories, but deals too with comedy, cars, the war against homosexuals, Sixties anarchists, oil-men and punks, Margaret Thatcher's wonderful good luck, political lies and the true heroes of British theatre.
This edition also includes an extra chapter charting the course from Blair to Brexit.

'Quirky, clever, and original, this will break your heart, but put it back together again' Katie Fforde'This is a very special book indeed: funny, powerful, heart-wrenching and so poignant' Jo Thomas'One of my favourites of 2018' Amazon reviewerFans of Jojo Moyes, Cecilia Ahern and Marian Keyes will love The Songs of Us by Emma Cooper, a laugh-out-loud, funny and heartbreaking novel of love, loss and what it means to be a family. If Melody hadn't run out of de-icer that day, she would never have slipped and banged her head. She wouldn't be left with a condition that makes her sing when she's nervous.
And she definitely wouldn't have belted out the Arctic Monkeys' 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor' in assembly at her son's school. If Dev hadn't taken the kids to the zoo that day, then the accident wouldn't have happened. He wouldn't have left Flynn and Rose without a dad.
Or shattered the love of his life's heart. But if they hadn't seen the missing person report that day, they might never have taken the trip to Cornwall. And, in the last place they expected, discovered what it really means to be 'Us'.
Readers love The Songs of Us:'Rarely does a book come along that is as unique and mesmerising as The Songs Of Us' 'Reminiscent of (and in my humble opinion right up there with) Me Before You by Jojo Moyes and Cecilia Ahern's PS I Love You''It had me laughing and crying in equal measures''The Songs of Us will soften your heart and make you smile''Get your hands on a copy now. TRUST ME.''This book is something really special, I might even venture to say, perfect''I laughed, cried, felt sad and felt heart-warmed in equal measures''I could not put it down ... I really do highly recommend this book'

Material Matters Metal: Creative Applications of Common Materials
Materials have the power to affect human experiences and emotions by helping us build intimate connections with inanimate objects through touch and feel. Whether they are used as a point of reference or the medium of creation itself, they are integral to artists and designers who seek to explore fresh outcomes, experiment with new techniques, and elicit distinct responses from their audiences.
Material Matters 02: Metal showcases stunning creative interpretations of the common material across a variety of mediums. From oxidising and rusting metal sheets to create intriguing effects on artwork to applying and embossing pieces of foil on printed matter for visual impact, this edition explores the compelling ways with which the unique characteristics of metal can be cleverly drawn upon or manipulated to shape the outcome of a particular project, with insights into the key techniques featured.

Sincerely Yours, Anna Sherwood
One summer internship. Two complete opposites. A connection neither expected...
Annalise Sherwood has worked herself to the bone to win a place on a prestigious internship, and nothing is going to stop her now.
Work hard, play later - that's her motto. She figures one night out before she starts the programme can't hurt, though - especially when it ends with the best kiss of her life. But to Anna's horror, the mystery guy she kissed that night is none other than Lloyd, the boss's son.
Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he's everyone's favourite guy and a total charmer, swanning around like he owns the place. And from the moment they meet again, he rubs Anna up the wrong way. As the summer - and the internship - progresses, Lloyd seems to be finding any excuse to annoy Anna, and she's not afraid to dish it right back.
But when a lot of late night working brings them unexpectedly closer, she begins to wonder if romance might be on the agenda after all . . .
Brimming with wit and chemistry, this brand-new, page-turning romance from Beth Reekles is perfect for fans of Beth O'Leary's The Flatshare and Emily Henry's Beach Read.
Captain America - Evolutions Of A Living Legend
The star-spangled costume of Captain America has been a timeless symbol of hope and freedom since his days fighting Nazism overseas and McCarthyism at home. This historical retrospective of Steve Rogers' various uniforms and super-hero mantles is a showcase of America's ever-evolving sociopolitical landscape. From his early days fighting in overt patriotic garb as Captain America during World War II through his adoption of the predominately black uniform and title of the Captain at a time when he became a symbol of resisting absolute government control, Rogers has always worn his allegiance openly. Time and again, Steve has returned to Captain America's red-white-and-blue iconography, proving that the symbolic clothing of the Sentinel of Liberty stands for a higher ideal than any one person or government can achieve.

Two individuals with two world-changing secrets. But where will they lead? And what role will Drem and Riv play in the Banished Land's fate? Difficult choices need to be made. Because in the shadows, demons are gathering, waiting for their time to rise. . .

What really happened that day at the river?
Where is Maggie's husband?

Věcná argumentace
Jakmile člověk pochopí skutečnou podstatu islámu, dost možná o ní bude chtít přesvědčit ostatní. Přitom zjistí, že lidé o islámu z médií získali falešnou představu, pro kterou hledají argumenty a omluvy.
Tato kniha je určena těm, kdo chtějí efektivně informovat druhé o skutečné povaze islámu. Naučíte se účinnou metodu argumentace založenou na faktech. Od 11. září se tyto metody využívají při debatách s omlouvači islámu ze všech politických prostředí. Ať už debatujete s liberálem nebo konzervativcem, pravičákem nebo levičákem, ve světle faktů jim můžete otevřít oči a ukázat pravdu o islámu.
Jelikož jsou metody v této knize založené na posvátných zdrojových textech islámu, budou z nich mít největší užitek ti, kdo četli islámskou trilogii (korán, síru a hadísy). Z uvedených příkladů se mohou učit i ostatní, ale čím více faktů budete znát, tím líp se vám v debatách bude dařit.
Always Look on the Bright Side of Life
From the ingenious comic performer, founding member of Monty Python, and creator of Spamalot, comes an absurdly funny memoir of unparalleled wit and heartfelt candour.
Best known for his unforgettable roles in Monty Python, from the Flying Circus to The Meaning of Life, Eric Idle reflects on the meaning of his own life in this brilliantly entertaining memoir that takes us on an unforgettable journey from his childhood in an austere boarding school through his successful career in comedy, television, theatre and film.
2019 marks the 50th anniversary of The Pythons, and this laugh-out-loud memoir is the perfect celebration, chock-full of behind-the-scenes stories from a high-flying life that features everyone from Princess Leia to the Queen. With anecdotes sprinkled throughout that involve close friends and luminaries such as Mick Jagger, George Harrison, Steve Martin, Paul Simon and David Bowie - let alone the Pythons themselves - Eric captures a time of tremendous creative output with equal hilarity and heart.
Named after the song he wrote for Life of Brian that has since become the number-one song played at funerals in the UK, Always Look on the Bright Side of Life reflects on the highlights of his life and career with the off-beat humour that has delighted audiences for decades.
