Plant Robert & Krauss Alison - Raise The Roof CD
KDO: Výjimečná dvojice. Robert Plant je podle mnoha expertů nejlepší zpěvák hudební historie! Hlas a nenahraditelný člen rockové legendy Led Zeppelin, jejíž obnovení tvrdošíjně odmítá, už několik let hledá s kytaristou Justinem Adamsem nové podněty v africké hudbě. V roce 2007 Plant natočil právě s Alison Krauss album, za které získali šest cen Grammy. Americká country-bluegrassová zpěvačka a houslistka Alison Krauss patří k nejoceňovanějším ženským interpretkám. Za svou kariéru získala nesčetně cen včetně mnoha Grammy. Je rovněž uznávanou autorkou filmové hudby.
CO: Robert Plant a Alison Krauss navazují na svou spolupráci z roku 2007, kdy vydali ceněné album Raising Sand. Novinku znovu produkoval Američan T-Bone Burnett a podobně jako u předchozího projektu jde hlavně o předělávky méně známých skladeb od významných jmen rocku, blues i country (Merle Haggard, Allen Toussaint, The Everly Brothers či Calexico). Nahrávka je k dispozici na CD nebo 2LP. V limitovaných verzích je deska o dvě skladby bohatší.

Invisible Child
Based on nearly a decade of reporting, Invisible Child follows eight dramatic years in the life of Dasani Coates, a child with an imagination as soaring as the skyscrapers near her Brooklyn homeless shelter. Born at the turn of a new century, Dasani is named for the bottled water that comes to symbolise Brooklyn's gentrification and the shared aspirations of a divided city. As Dasani moves with her family from shelter to shelter, this story traces the passage of Dasani's ancestors from slavery to the Great Migration north.
Dasani comes of age as New York City's homeless crisis is exploding. In the shadows of this new Gilded Age, Dasani leads her seven siblings through a thicket of problems: hunger, parental drug addiction, violence, housing instability, segregated schools and the constant monitoring of the child-protection system.
When, at age thirteen, Dasani enrolls at a boarding school in Pennsylvania, her loyalties are tested like never before. Ultimately, she faces an impossible question: What if leaving poverty means abandoning the family you love?
By turns heartbreaking and revelatory, provocative and inspiring, Invisible Child tells an astonishing story about the power of resilience, the importance of family and the cost of inequality.

Love among Haystacks + CD
It is hay-making time on the Wookey farm. Two brothers are building the haystack, but thinking about other things - about young women, and love. There are angry words, and then a fight between the brothers. But the work goes on, visitors come and go, and the long hot summer day slowly turns to evening. Then the sun goes down, covering the world with a carpet of darkness. From the hedges around the hayfield comes the rich, sweet smell of wild flowers, and the hay will make a fine, soft bed ...
Active Measures
We live in an age of subterfuge. Spy agencies pour vast resources into hacking, leaking, and forging data, often with the goal of weakening the very foundation of liberal democracy: trust in facts. Thomas Rid, a renowned expert on technology and national security, was one of the first to sound the alarm. Even before the 2016 election, he warned that Russian military intelligence was 'carefully planning and timing a high-stakes political campaign' to disrupt the democratic process. But as crafty as such so-called active measures have become, they are not new.
In this astonishing journey through a century of secret psychological war, Rid reveals for the first time some of history's most significant operations - many of them nearly beyond belief. A White Russian ploy backfires and brings down a New York police commissioner; a KGB-engineered, anti-Semitic hate campaign creeps back across the Berlin Wall; the CIA backs a fake publishing empire, run by a former Wehrmacht U-boat commander that produces Germany's best jazz magazine.

The Contrarian
A biography of venture capitalist and entrepreneur Peter Thiel, the enigmatic, controversial and hugely influential power broker who sits at the dynamic intersection of tech, business and politics
Since the days of the dot-com bubble in the late 1990s, no industry has made a greater global impact than Silicon Valley. And few individuals have done more to shape Silicon Valley than billionaire venture capitalist and entrepreneur Peter Thiel. From the technologies we use every day to the delicate power balance between Silicon Valley, Wall Street and Washington, Thiel has been a behind-the-scenes operator influencing countless aspects of contemporary life. But despite his power and the ubiquity of his projects, no public figure is quite so mysterious.
In the first major biography of Thiel, Max Chafkin traces the trajectory of the innovator's singular life and worldview, from his upbringing as the child of immigrant parents and years at Stanford as a burgeoning conservative thought leader to his founding of PayPal and Palantir, early investment in Facebook and SpaceX, and relationships with fellow tech titans Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk and Eric Schmidt. The Contrarian illuminates the extent to which Thiel has sought to export his values to the corridors of power beyond Silicon Valley, such as funding the lawsuit that bankrupted the blog Gawker to strenuously backing far-right political candidates, including Donald Trump for president.
Eye-opening and deeply reported, The Contrarian is a revelatory biography of a one-of-a-kind leader and an incisive portrait of a tech industry whose explosive growth and power is both thrilling and fraught with controversy.
Cur homo?
This monograph has set itself the goal to examine, outline, elucidate, and supplement the existing body of knowledge concerning a theme from patristic and medieval theology recalled in 1953 by Marie-Dominique Chenu, and that is the assertion that man was created as a replacement for fallen angels (Yves Congar: créature de remplacement; Louis Bouyer: ange de remplacement). The study first shows that the idea of man having being created to take the place of fallen angels was introduced by St. Augustine and developed by other church fathers. It then identifies the typical contexts in which the subject was raised by authors of the early Middle Ages, but goes on to focus on the discussion that developed during the twelfth century (Anselm of Canterbury, the school of Laon, Rupert of Deutz, Honorius of Autun), which represents the high point of the theme under investigation, culminating in the assertion that man is an "original" being, created for its own sake, for whom God created the world – a world which together with, and through, man is destined for the heavenly Jerusalem. The question as to whether man would have been created if the angels had not sinned (cur homo) bears a clear similarity to a further controversy, the origins of which also go back to the twelfth century, and that is whether the Son of God would have become incarnate if man had not sinned (cur Deus homo). Next, the book sheds light on how the subject begins to gradually fade away through the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, both within monastic tradition, which nonetheless held onto Augustine's motif, and within scholastic theology, which asserted that man was created for his own sake. The conclusion summarizes the findings and points to the surprisingly contemporary relevance of the foregoing reflections, particularly in relation to the critique that the Swiss philosopher and theologian Romano Amerio († 1997) offers concerning a statement in the pastoral constitution of the Second Vatican Council (Gaudium et spes 24), according to which man is "the only creature on earth that God willed for itself".

Prvá kniha zo zákulisia Smeru je príbehom Roberta Fica a jeho strany z pohľadu investigatívneho novinára, ktorý odhalil viaceré dôležité kauzy. Usilovný študent a aktívny zväzák Fico na sebe tvrdo pracoval, aby sa raz dostal medzi elitu. Dnes už trojnásobný premiér však spravil hneď na začiatku osudovú chybu. Spojil sa s vplyvnými oligarchami, ktorí zbohatli za Mečiara. Podnikatelia, čo založili svoj biznismodel na obchodovaní so štátom, zainvestovali a vyplatilo sa. Vďaka túžbe byť na vrchole za každú cenu sa stal Fico ich vazalom a dlžníkom.
Mecenáši jeho strany pretlačili svojich ľudí do vlády, parlamentu aj strategických podnikov. Ich firmy ovládli zdravotníctvo, energetiku, dopravu, obranu či IT sektor. Biznis dokonca začali robiť samotní politici Smeru. Robili to bez škrupúľ, pretože sa mohli spoľahnúť na kľúčových ľudí vo vedení polície a prokuratúry. Správali sa, akoby boli navždy nedotknuteľní. Predstavitelia zlatej mládeže s veksláckymi spôsobmi, ktorí sa prezentovali ako ctihodní občania. V skutočnosti poznali len tri slová: peniaze, známosti a beztrestnosť.
Vo vzduchu však cítiť, že sa niečo zlomilo. Politická garnitúra, ktorá v koalícii s obchodníkmi v pozadí uniesla štát, si uvedomuje, že zašla priďaleko. Aj preto sa množia pokusy o diskreditáciu politických protivníkov a kritických novinárov. A eliminujú sa policajti a prokurátori, ktorí chceli poctivo vyšetriť podozrenia z konšpiračných bytov a luxusných rezidencií. Studená vojna za zmenila na otvorený spôsob boja. Bez zábran a pravidiel. Zdá sa, že niekomu ide o všetko.
