London Falling
The dark is rising ...Detective Inspector James Quill is about to complete the drugs bust of his career. Then his prize suspect Rob Toshack is murdered in custody. Furious, Quill pursues the investigation, co-opting intelligence analyst Lisa Ross and undercover cops Costain and Sefton. But nothing about Toshack's murder is normal. Toshack had struck a bargain with a vindictive entity, whose occult powers kept Toshack one step ahead of the law -- until his luck ran out. Now, the team must find a 'suspect' who can bend space and time and alter memory itself. And they will kill again. As the group starts to see London's sinister magic for themselves, they have two choices: panic or use their new abilities. Then they must hunt a terrifying supernatural force the only way they know how: using police methods, equipment and tactics. But they must all learn the rules of this new game - and quickly. More than their lives will depend on it. 'He's gone and written a novel too! I suspect it will be just as good as everything else he's written, and that's not fair at all' George R R Martin.

South African Art Now
Described by international curator Okwui Enwezor as "one of the most dynamic and vigorous spaces of artistic practice," contemporary South African art is an exciting, emerging scene that is attracting the attention of international museums, curators, and collectors today. South African Art Now documents, through in-depth essays and stunning full-color photographs, the remarkable work of nearly one hundred South African artists working in every medium from painting, sculpture, and video to cutting-edge performance art. This lush volume includes the impressive work of art world stars such as William Kentridge and Marlene Dumas, newly prominent artists such as Berni Searle, Robin Rhode, and Mustafa Maluka, and exciting newcomers still unknown outside their own country, but clearly marked for success. This book covers forty years of art history, from the dark years of apartheid, which saw the rise of resistance art, to the long-awaited achievement of freedom in 1994, to the present-day struggles for reconciliation and transformation. Through it all, the engaged, powerful work of these artists provided a mirror for society. Including a compelling foreword by Nobel Prize-winning writer Nadine Gordimer, South African Art Now is a must-have resource for collectors, curators, and anyone interested in the pulse of international contemporary art.

Great Astronomers: Isaac Newton
Sir Isaac Newton (1642–1726) was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist and theologian who has been considered by many to be the greatest and most influential scientist who ever lived. His monograph Philosophia Naturalis Principia Mathematica, published in 1687, laid the foundations for most of classical mechanics. In this work, Newton described universal gravitation and the three laws of motion, which dominated the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. Newton showed that the motion of objects on Earth and that of celestial bodies is governed by the same set of natural laws: by demonstrating the consistency between Kepler's laws of planetary motion and his theory of gravitation he removed the last doubts about heliocentrism and advanced the scientific revolution. The Principia is generally considered to be one of the most important scientific books ever written, both due to the specific physical laws the work successfully described, and for its style, which assisted in setting standards for scientific publication down to the present time. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_newton)This eBook is taken from a chapter in Sir Robert Stawell Ball's Great Astronomers (2nd edition, 1907).

The Lees of Happiness
This short story was first published in the "Chicago Tribune," and first published in book form in Tales of the Jazz Age in 1922."Of this story I can say that it came to me in an irresistible form, crying to be written. It will be accused perhaps of being a mere piece of sentimentality, but, as I saw it, it was a great deal more. If, therefore, it lacks the ring of sincerity, or even, of tragedy, the fault rests not with the theme but with my handling of it.It appeared in the "Chicago Tribune," and later obtained, I believe, the quadruple gold laurel leaf or some such encomium from one of the anthologists who at present swarm among us. The gentleman I refer to runs as a rule to stark melodramas with a volcano or the ghost of John Paul Jones in the role of Nemesis, melodramas carefully disguised by early paragraphs in Jamesian manner which hint dark and subtle complexities to follow. On this order:"The case of Shaw McPhee, curiously enough, had no hearing on the almost incredible attitude of Martin Sulo. This is parenthetical and, to at least three observers, whose names for the present I must conceal, it seems improbable, etc., etc., etc.," until the poor rat of fiction is at last forced out into the open and the melodrama begins."

Delirious New York
Since its original publication in 1978, Delirious New York has attained mythic status. Back in print in a newly designed edition, this influential cultural, architectural, and social history of New York is even more popular, selling out its first printing on publication. Rem Koolhaas's celebration and analysis of New York depicts the city as a metaphor for the incredible variety of human behavior. At the end of the nineteenth century, population, information, and technology explosions made Manhattan a laboratory for the invention and testing of a metropolitan lifestyle — "the culture of congestion" — and its architecture.
"Manhattan," he writes, "is the 20th century's Rosetta Stone . . . occupied by architectural mutations (Central Park, the Skyscraper), utopian fragments (Rockefeller Center, the U.N. Building), and irrational phenomena (Radio City Music Hall)." Koolhaas interprets and reinterprets the dynamic relationship between architecture and culture in a number of telling episodes of New York's history, including the imposition of the Manhattan grid, the creation of Coney Island, and the development of the skyscraper. Delirious New York is also packed with intriguing and fun facts and illustrated with witty watercolors and quirky archival drawings, photographs, postcards, and maps. The spirit of this visionary investigation of Manhattan equals the energy of the city itself.

Čo mám na jazyku
Najnovšia kniha režiséra Petra Brooka vychádza v slovenskom jazyku krátko po originálnom vydaní.
„Už roky sa zamýšľam nad tým záhadným vzťahom medzi slovom a jeho skutočným významom. Slová sú často nevyhnutné. Slová, ako stoličky a stoly, nám umožňujú pohybovať sa v každodennom svete. Príliš ľahko sa však slovo dostáva do popredia. Podstatný je význam. Už ticho má význam, význam, ktorý sa domáha uznania vo svete premenlivých foriem a zvukov.
Lenivo sme si zvykli zovšeobecňovať. Teraz uvidíme, že presne tak, ako v atóme, keď ho roztvoríme a nájdeme celé univerzum, tak aj keď sa pristavíme pri nejakej vete, zistíme, že každé jej slovo a každá jej slabika zakaždým rezonujú inak.“
Peter Brook
Hĺbavá a veľmi osobná kniha divadelného majstra Petra Brooka, ktorého noviny Independent označili za „nášho najväčšieho žijúceho divadelného režiséra“.
V Čo mám na jazyku sa Brook podmanivo, hravo a múdro zaoberá témami, ako sú jemné, no významné rozdiely medzi francúzštinou a angličtinou a početné roviny, z ktorých možno vnímať Shakespearovu tvorbu.
Brook sa tu vracia aj k svojej zásadnej idei „prázdneho priestoru“ a uvažuje o tom, ako sa zmenilo divadlo – a svet – v priebehu jeho dlhej a význačnej kariéry.
Pretkaná intímnymi a výstižnými historkami z Brookovho života, kniha Čo mám na jazyku je neveľkým, zato osviežujúcim darom od jedného z najväčších umelcov našej doby.
Chvála na Brookovu Kvalitu milosti: úvahy o Shakespearovi:
„Skvostná... pútavá... Táto krátka, skromná a skvelá kniha oživuje lepšie ako mnohé veľkolepé zväzky čitateľovo nadšenie pre tieto hry a divákov úžas nad pozoruhodnými a rozmanitými dojmami ukrytými v prvom fóliu. Patrí do povinného čítania...“
Guardian
„Vo svojich duchaplných úvahách obsahuje esenciu všetkého, čo sa Peter Brook za svoj život naučil.“
Wall Street Journal
Peter Brook sa radí k najznámejším svetovým divadelným režisérom. Medzi najvýznamnejšie inscenácie v jeho kariére plnej pozoruhodných počinov patrí Titus Andronicus (1955) s Laurenceom Olivierom, Kráľ Lear (1962) s Paulom Scofieldom či Marat/Sade (1964) a Sen noci svätojánskej (1970), obe pre Royal Shakespeare Company. Potom ako sa Brook presťahoval do Paríža, kde v roku 1970 založil International Centre for Theatre Research (Medzinárodné centrum divadelného výskumu) a po otvorení divadla Bouffes du Nord v roku 1974 International Centre for Theatre Creation (Medzinárodné centrum divadelnej tvorby), stál pri vzniku niekoľkých prelomových diel, ktoré posunuli hranice divadla, z mnohých napríklad Conference of the Birds (Vtáčí snem, 1976), The Ik (Ikovia, 1975), The Mahabharata (1985) a The Tragedy of Carmen (Tragédia Carmen, 1981). Natočil filmy ako Lord of the Flies (Pán múch, 1963), King Lear (Kráľ Lear, 1970), The Mahabharata (1989), Tell Me Lies (Zavádzaj ma, reštaurovaný v 2013) a Meetings with Remarkable Men (Stretnutia s pozoruhodnými ľuďmi, reštaurovaný v 2017). Jeho nesmierne vplyvné knihy, od The Empty Space (Prázdny priestor, 1968) po The Quality of Mercy (Kvalita milosti, 2013), vyšli v mnohých jazykoch po celom svete.
Divadelný ústav vydal publikáciu Kvalita milosti. Úvahy o Shakespearovi v roku 2014 v preklade Veroniky Kolejákovej.
