Greatest man in cedar hole
Cedar Hole is a foggy little town where only the grass seems able to thrive. Enter Robert J. Cutler, enigmatic, confident and relentlessly cheerful. Robert seems to be heading for great things - more than this town of hopeless washouts can offer him, certainly. However, he is devoted to Cedar Hole and determines to become its school's best student. Now meet Francis 'Spud' Pinkham, who is trying to stay as invisible as Robert is brilliant. Spud's nine terrifying elder sisters make his life a daily battle and he slips easily and willingly into the role of the school bully. It seems that these boys' lives have been mapped out already. But destiny has other plans: the colourful residents of Cedar Hole will be forced to acknowledge that a great man can come in many guises.
The Best Medicine – A legjobb orvosság (Bell Harbor 2.)
A tett halála az okoskodás?
Bell Harbor összes lakója férjet akar szerezni a karrierista plasztikai sebésznek, Evelyn Rhoadesnak. Mindenki, kivéve Evelynt… talán.
Még ha férjhez is akarna menni (amit, ugye, nem akar… legtöbbször), a leendő férje személyét soha nem bízná olyan bizonytalan tényezőre, mint a sors. Nem, ha már arra adja a fejét, hogy talál valakit, akivel összeköti az életét, azt bizony tudományosan fogja tenni: alaposan átgondolt követelménylistával és egy internetes randi oldalon.
Ám amikor az ittas, törvényszegő Tyler Connelly egy lopott jet-ski jóvoltából berobban az életébe, rakoncátlan érzelmek csendesítik el a józan ész hangját. Nem kétséges, hogy a férfi szexi, sármos, és eltökélte, hogy felhívja magára Evelyn figyelmét; de minden bizonyíték azt erősíti, hogy a lehető legrosszabb jelölt. Túl fiatal a nőhöz. Túlságosan is ellenállhatatlan. Iskolázottságban viszont alulmarad. És ó, igen, ráadásul Evelyn páciense.
De Tyler első kézből tudja, hogy a legjobban kidolgozott tervek is összeomolhatnak a végzet súlya alatt. Most már csak annyi a dolga, hogy megtanítsa Evelynnek, szívügyekben a szerelem győz a logika felett.

Karl Lagerfeld: A Life in Fashion
Karl Lagerfeld lived a very public life. He shaped the Chanel and Fendi brands for decades, and his wit and wisdom amused and informed the world. Yet despite a massively public persona, his hinterland remained unknown. What is the truth behind this larger-than-life but enigmatic figure?
The journalist and fashion specialist Alfons Kaiser met Lagerfeld on numerous occasions. He has now written the first authoritative biography on this fascinating character, whose life has always been marked by elements of secrecy. From his parents’ links with the Nazi regime to Lagerfeld’s last days in the company of only his closest friends, this book – the result of unprecedented archival and field work – divulges all the facets of a passionate artist and workaholic: the precocious boy who preferred to draw in the attic rather than play with his peers; the son who quarrelled with his parents but never got away from them; the competitor of Yves Saint Laurent, whom he outshone in the end; the brother, uncle, friend; and finally, the partner of Jacques de Bascher, the great love of his life.

The Nightmare Charade – A Rémálom-rejtvény
Porkának ?túl sok feladata van, és túl sokan ellenőrzik mit csinál, ám egy Rémálom ritkán engedelmeskedik a szabályoknak.
Porka Evergím harmadikos az Akkordél Akadémián, és nincs más vágya, mint együtt lenni a barátjával, Eli Bookerrel. De a sors szó szerint távol tartja őket egymástól. Porka ugyanis Rémálom, aki be tud lépni Eli álmaiba. Ám egy ősi átok szerint, ha igaz szerelem bontakozik ki közöttük, az tragédiához vezet. Porka és Eli vállalná a kockázatot, de a hatalom másképp gondolja: kísérőt jelölnek ki melléjük, aki vigyáz, hogy a kapcsolatuk szigorúan plátói maradjon.
Ha ez nem lenne elég, elég komoly megbízást kapnak, hogy álomlátó kötelékükre támaszkodva segítsenek megtalálni a fekete mágia valaha ismert legnagyobb hatalmú eszközét. Az Animus Mortem feltámasztja a holtakat, de az élők lelkének kiszívása útján… így hollétének kinyomozása valóban élet-halál kérdése.
Hogy még rosszabb legyen a helyzet, Porka egyik barátját gyilkossággal vádolják, és az illető számít rá, hogy Porka tisztázza. Mélyre kell hatolnia Eli álmaiban, ha ki akarja deríteni az igazságot, és meg akarja találni a módját, hogyan legyenek végre igazán együtt!

Social Democracy in the Making Political and Religious Roots of European Socialism
An expansive and ambitious intellectual history of democratic socialism from one of the world's leading intellectual historians and social ethicists
The fallout from twenty years of neoliberal economic globalism has sparked a surge of interest in the old idea of democratic socialism-a democracy in which the people control the economy and government, no group dominates any other, and every citizen is free, equal, and included. With a focus on the intertwined legacies of Christian socialism and Social Democratic politics in Britain and Germany, this book traces the story of democratic socialism from its birth in the nineteenth century through the mid-1960s.
Examining the tenets on which the movement was founded and how it adapted to different cultural, religious, and economic contexts from its beginnings through the social and political traumas of the twentieth century, Gary Dorrien reminds us that Christian socialism paved the way for all liberation theologies that make the struggles of oppressed peoples the subject of redemption. He argues for a decentralized economic democracy and anti-imperial internationalism.

Greece in the Ancient World
Spanning the Minoan and Mycenaean origins of Greece to its eventual conquest by Rome, this new single-author survey combines an authoritative and engaging retelling of the history of ancient Greece with an assessment of the relevance of the Greeks today. Beautifully illustrated with examples of art, archaeology and architecture – from the frescoes of Akrotiri to the spectacular discovery of the Tomb of the Griffin Warrior in 2015 – this account foregrounds the variety and diversity of what it meant to be Greek. Dedicated chapters on Athens and Sparta highlight the differences of culture and civic structure within the Greek world, as well as the political tensions that would precipitate the Peloponnesian War and the subsequent Macedonian Hellenistic Age. Numerous maps and timelines support the clear chronological narrative, while ‘Spotlight’ features at the end of each chapter offer a visual commentary on specific concepts, places and institutions, such as the oracle of Delphi and the image of Alexander the Great.
Greece in the Ancient World is the story of a culture that transformed the Western world. The Greeks’ achievements and failures, their ideals and their faults, established a legacy that remains at the heart of our modern life.

Sex and Repression in Savage Society
During the First World War the pioneer anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski found himself stranded on the Trobriand Islands, off the eastern coast of New Guinea. By living among the people he studied there, speaking their language and participating in their activities, he invented what became known as 'participant-observation'. This new type of ethnographic study was to have a huge impact on the emerging discipline of anthropology. In Sex and Repression in Savage Society Malinowski applied his experiences on the Trobriand Islands to the study of sexuality, and the attendant issues of eroticism, obscenity, incest, oppression, power and parenthood. In so doing, he both utilized and challenged the psychoanalytical methods being popularized at the time in Europe by Freud and others. The result is a unique and brilliant book that, though revolutionary when first published, has since become a standard work on the psychology of sex.
