The Illustrator
For all those who thought digital heralded the end of an era: illustration is alive and kicking, and new tools have given the art renewed vigor and the illustrator greater stamina. Steven Hellerand Julius Wiedemannpresent a snapshot of “the new golden age of illustration,” rounding up 100 of the most talented artists around the world. We dare you to pick your favorites.
For the last ten years, Steven Heller and Julius Wiedemannhave traced the latest developments in illustration across the globe—and for all those who thought digital heralded the end of an era, they’re here to set the record straight.
There were extraordinary eras before mass media changed our viewing habits, back in the day when illustration was the most primary means of illuminating the word on paper, to today when we get our words and images on screens as small as a watch face. And in this environment, today’s designers and artists are holding their own brilliantly. Illustration is more free and varied than ever, and it is ubiquitous in all kinds of media from paper to screen, books, packages, clothing, cars, and restaurants.
This book celebrates the sheer quality, diversity, intensity, comedy, vivacity, and exceptionality of the work being created by illustrators right now. From veteran artists like Brad Holland, whose oblique and metaphorical paintings for the New York Times’ op-ed section revolutionized illustrative content in the 1970s, to up-and-coming stars like Robin Eisenberg, her pastel-skinned alien belles cruising in spaceships on indie-rock album covers, the 100 artists in this collection are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, but they represent a compelling snapshot of the styles, techniques, and use of color by artists across the world. We dare you to pick your favorites.
Includes:
an introduction and foreword by editors Julius Wiedemann and Steven Heller
600 pagesof brilliantly reproduced works
a biography for each artistdetailing their background, philosophy, motivations, and contact details
an index of illustration agencies

Invisible Women
Imagine a world where your phone is too big for your hand, where your doctor prescribes a drug that is wrong for your body, where in a car accident you are 47% more likely to be seriously injured, where every week the countless hours of work you do are not recognised or valued.
If any of this sounds familiar, chances are that you're a woman.
Invisible Women shows us how, in a world largely built for and by men, we are systematically ignoring half the population. It exposes the gender data gap – a gap in our knowledge that is at the root of perpetual, systemic discrimination against women, and that has created a pervasive but invisible bias with a profound effect on women’s lives.
From government policy and medical research, to technology, workplaces, urban planning and the media, Invisible Women reveals the biased data that excludes women.
Award-winning campaigner and writer Caroline Criado Perez brings together for the first time an impressive range of case studies, stories and new research from across the world that illustrate the hidden ways in which women are forgotten, and the impact this has on their health and well-being. In making the case for change, this powerful and provocative book will make you see the world anew.
Úvod do kresťanstva
Keď mladý profesor Ratzinger predstupoval pred študentov na univerzite v Tübingene s prednáškami o kresťanstve, mal jeden základný úmysel. Chcel, aby mu rozumeli aj ľudia, ktorí nie sú zvyknutí na jazyk Cirkvi, ktorým tento jazyk prekáža a ktorým je takto zabalené kresťanstvo neprístupné. Za schému, ktorej sa mal pridržiavať, si zvolil Apoštolské vyznanie viery známe aj ako modlitba Verím v Boha.
Knižné vydanie týchto prednášok sa v origináli aj preložené do mnohých jazykov stalo bestsellerom. Neuveriteľná dôkladnosť a hĺbka, s akou sa tento múdry muž dotýka základných otázok kresťanstva, priam vyráža dych. Obdivuhodným spôsobom ukazuje, ako sú kresťanské pravdy veľmi úzko prepojené s ľudským životom. S ľudským životom v jeho hĺbke, ktorou sa, žiaľ, tak málo zaoberáme.
Či sa človek vďaka čítaniu tejto knihy stane kresťanom, alebo či sa stane lepším kresťanom, to ťažko povedať. No určite sa vďaka vynikajúcemu sprievodcovi, ktorým je jej autor, dostane vo svojom uvažovaní na veľmi zaujímavé miesta, na ktorých málokto z nás už bol.
The Desolations of Devil's Acre
The fate of peculiardom hangs in the balance in this epic conclusion to the #1 bestselling Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series.
The last thing Jacob Portman saw before the world went dark was a terrible, familiar face.
Suddenly, he and Noor are back in the place where everything began - his grandfather's house. Jacob doesn't know how they escaped from V's loop to find themselves in Florida. But he does know one thing for certain: Caul has returned.
After a narrow getaway from a blood-thirsty hollow, Jacob and Noor reunite with Miss Peregrine and the peculiar children in Devil's Acre. The Acre is being plagued by desolations - weather fronts of ash and blood and bone - a terrible portent of Caul's amassing army.
Risen from the Library of Souls and more powerful than ever, Caul and his apocalyptic agenda seem unstoppable. Only one hope remains - deliver Noor to the meeting place of the seven prophesied ones. If they can decipher its secret location.
Jacob and his friends will face deadly enemies and race through history's most dangerous loops in this thrilling page-turner, the final adventure in the beloved Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series.

The revolutionary movement behind the explosive growth of Intel, Google, Amazon and Uber.
With a foreword by Larry Page, and contributions from Bono and Bill Gates.
Measure What Matters is about using Objectives and Key Results (OKRs), a revolutionary approach to goal-setting, to make tough choices in business.
In 1999, legendary venture capitalist John Doerr invested nearly $12 million in a startup that had amazing technology, entrepreneurial energy and sky-high ambitions, but no real business plan. Doerr introduced the founders to OKRs and with them at the foundation of their management, the startup grew from forty employees to more than 70,000 with a market cap exceeding $600 billion. The startup was Google.
Since then Doerr has introduced OKRs to more than fifty companies, helping tech giants and charities exceed all expectations. In the OKR model objectives define what we seek to achieve and key results are how those top- priority goals will be attained. OKRs focus effort, foster coordination and enhance workplace satisfaction. They surface an organization's most important work as everyone's goals from entry-level to CEO are transparent to the entire institution.
In Measure What Matters, Doerr shares a broad range of first-person, behind-the-scenes case studies, with narrators including Bono and Bill Gates, to demonstrate the focus, agility, and explosive growth that OKRs have spurred at so many great organizations.
This book will show you how to collect timely, relevant data to track progress - to measure what matters. It will help any organization or team aim high, move fast, and excel.

John Doerr joined Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers in 1980 and has since backed some of the world's most successful entrepreneurs and companies, such as Google, Zynga and Amazon.

Náčelník
Pro skauty, trampy a toulavý lid s batohem na zádech všeobecně je Miloslav Nevrlý (1933) určující osobností. Jeho osamělé toulky po Jizerských horách a Karpatech, které podnikal od padesátých let, inspirovaly zástupy následovníků – někteří z nich jsou populární cestovatelé, jiní skromní tuláci, kteří o svých prožitcích mlčí, ale svůj život jimi naplňují neméně intenzivně.
Miloslav Nevrlý, skautskou přezdívkou Náčelník, jim byl příkladem, že se neznámými končinami dá chodit bez map, nenosit s sebou v batohu v podstatě nic, vydat se nejistotám a nalézt tak radost a smysl. Byl to právě on, kdo po odsunu německého obyvatelstva v podstatě znovu objevil zapadlá místa nejsevernějších českých hor a napsal o tom ceněnou Knihu o Jizerských horách. Byl to on, kdo naučil čtenáře Karpatských her hrát hry na poutníka s lehkým srdcem či na jitřní radost; mnoho lidí tvrdí, že tato útlá kniha jim doslova změnila život.
Miloslav Nevrlý završuje devadesát let svého života v obdivuhodné fyzické i mentální kondici. V knižním rozhovoru rekapituluje své cesty a prožitky nad rámec toho, co o nich dosud napsal. Hovoří také o víře, o práci (lépe řečeno o zaměstnání) v libereckém muzeu, o své rodině a přátelích. Zejména pak vzpomíná na výpravy do osamělých hor, jakých je dnes už tak málo.
V knižním rozhovoru nazvaném Náčelník dokládá, že užitek z cest je možné čerpat v každém věku, pokud duše zůstane dychtivá. To vše koření vrchovatou dávkou humoru. Knihu doplňují dosud nepublikované fotografie z rodinných alb.
Pro tuláky všeho druhu je Miloslav Nevrlý beze sporu legendou. Pro ty, kteří o cestách jen sní, může být tento rozhovor skutečným objevem. I dnes je totiž možné být přírodě blízko, zažívat ji a chápat. I dnes je možné prožít naplněný život.
