Books do Furnish a Life
At a time when science can seem complex and remote, it has a greater impact on our lives, and to the future of our planet, than ever before. It really matters that its discoveries and truths should be clearly and widely communicated. That its enemies, from the malicious to the muddled, the self-deluding to the self-interested, be challenged and exposed. That science should be brought out of the laboratory, taken into the corridors of power and defended in the maelstrom of popular culture. No one does this better than Richard Dawkins.
In bringing together his forewords, afterwords and introductions to works by some of the leading thinkers of our age - Carl Sagan, Lawrence Krauss, Jacob Bronowski, Lewis Wolpert - and a selection of his reviews, both admiring and critical, of a wide range of scientific and other works, Books do Furnish a Life celebrates the writers who communicate the ideas of science and the natural world in both fiction and non-fiction. It celebrates the courage of those who write about their experiences of escaping religion and embracing rationality, of protecting the truths of science and analytical rigour against charlatanry and obfuscation.

Together
There is so much to be afraid of in our current moment: climate catastrophe, the rise of a new fascism, a virus that has reshaped the way we live. But something better is possible.
We can choose to turn away from an uncaring world and instead build a world where we stand compassionately as one.

The Night Watchman
It is 1953. Thomas Wazhushk is the night watchman at the first factory to open near the Turtle Mountain Reservation in rural North Dakota. He is also a prominent Chippewa Council member, trying to understand a new bill that is soon to be put before Congress. The US Government calls it an 'emancipation' bill; but it isn't about freedom - it threatens the rights of Native Americans to their land, their very identity. How can he fight this betrayal? Unlike most of the girls on the reservation, Pixie - 'Patrice' - Paranteau has no desire to wear herself down on a husband and kids. She works at the factory, earning barely enough to support her mother and brother, let alone her alcoholic father who sometimes returns home to bully her for money. But Patrice needs every penny to get if she's ever going to get to Minnesota to find her missing sister Vera. In The Night Watchman multi-award winning author Louise Erdrich weaves together a story of past and future generations, of preservation and progress. She grapples with the worst and best impulses of human nature, illuminating the loves and lives, desires and ambitions of her characters with compassion, wit and intelligence.

Lacná kniha Winsor McCay (-50%)
Adventures in Pajamas Little Nemo up, up, and away Meet Little Nemo, a diminutive hero of comic narrative, but one of the greatest dream voyagers of the 20th century. The master creation of Winsor McCay (1869-1934), restless sleeper Nemo inspired generations of artists with his weekly adventures from bed to Slumberland, a realm of colorful companions, psychedelic scenery, and thrilling escapades. This book gathers all of Little Nemo's colorful airship adventures in Slumberland, totaling 69 installments, first published between January 1910 and April 1911. Brimming with sky-high imagination, these airship adventures represent some of the most ambitious artwork and exciting tales of McCay's revolutionary comic and of his much-loved dream voyager. The installments see Nemo flying to the moon, to Mars, and on a triumphant tour of major sights and metropolises across the East Coast of America and Canada and beyond, including Yellowstone National Park, Niagara Falls, and New York City. An introductory essay from art historian Alexander Braun contextualizes these airship episodes within the broader Little Nemo series as well as McCay'' ambitious and exceptionally influential career. Braun reveals how the airship journey was not only a pioneering narrative arc in the early days of comic but also a "creative bombshell" which propelled McCay towards further endeavors, namely the first animated film in history.

Hard Lessons
Sara likes to tease her students. Dressing inappropriately, strutting around the classroom flaunting her body. When they look at her, it feeds Sara's dark fantasy of being taken by a group of students who punish her for being a tease. When Sara catches two problem students who she'd lectured in front of the class texting about what they'd do to her, it’s like a fantasy come true.
Caught up in the excitement, Sara decides to embarrass them by letting the class know they think she's hot, then threatening to expel them to teach them a lesson and fuel her own fantasy of making students want to make her pay for her behavior. But when one of the students catches Sara in a place she shouldn't be, it’s the teacher who's going to be taught a lesson, a hard lesson: the lesson of ‘be careful what you wish for.’
~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~
Sara spotted a DVD featuring a woman standing on a desk, exposing her breasts. “Stripped for the Class.”
She snatched it up, wondering how many women who liked them were actual teachers?
Did a lot of men buy them remembering that one hot teacher it seemed every guy had at some point? Why did she care? Because she was obsessed at this point.
Obsessed enough the movies were going to set her back over $150, and she was fine with it. What she wasn’t fine with was hearing Tonya say good night and seeing her heading for the door.
Sara made her way out of the aisle, but stopped. What was she going to do, ask her to go back just to ring her out? Tonya waved. “Night, T will be out in a minute.”
Sara returned the wave and headed up to the counter hoping T was a woman.
No, that was ridiculous, she was a grown woman and shouldn’t care what a guy thought about her for buying porn. She put the movies on the counter and noticed a basket of DVDs marked 3for $10 on the floor. Seeing “T” hadn’t come out yet, she bent down and fished through the movies.
She didn’t see anything she liked and straightened up.
“Oh my god!” She blurted when she found herself staring at Troy behind the counter.
“Holy crap!” Troy’s expression mirrored hers, except he wasn’t turning red and she doubted he felt the sharp stab of fear in her stomach she was experiencing.
“I…” Sara had no idea what to say.
“Miss Jenks!” Troy’s surprised look shifted into a nasty smirk. “What brings you here?”
Come on, say something. “Just what everyone else is doing here.”
“Just buying some porn?” The smirk grew wider.
“I changed my mind.”
“Let’s see,” Troy scooped up them up.
“Put those down!”
“Nope, I want to see what floats your boat,” he lifted the first one. “Stripped for the Class. Interesting choice.” He held it up and turned it to the side pointing at the women on the cover. “I do see a resemblance in the chest department.”
He held the next one up turning it to the side. “Field Trip Blowbang?” He whistled. “Wow, that’s hardcore.”
He put it on the counter. “I’m impressed, I thought a stuck up snot like you would be a dud.”
Troy looked back at movies in his hand. “Bound Gang Bangs 5.”
He held it up before scanning it, why did he keep doing that?
“Hey, look there’s a school gang bang scene in this one too.”
He dropped it on top of the others as she stood there, her face flushed with a mixture of anger and humiliation.
“Hard Lessons 2.” He tapped the case. “I think you said hard lessons to me today, didn’t you?”
“It’s a common expression.”
“And this was held aside for you, meaning you ordered it.” He repeated the process of lifting it to eye level before scanning it.
“Thinking about it while you slutted around class?” He slipped the movies into a black plastic bag.
“Watch how you speak t

Kurátor
Ak si myslíte, že ste to rozlúskli, ste presne tam, kde vás chce mať
Sú Vianoce a sériový vrah zanechá v rôznych častiach Cumbrie vystavené časti tiel. Na každom mieste činu sa nájde zvláštny odkaz: #BSC6. Washington Poe z Národnej kriminálnej agentúry a Tilly Bradshawová čelia prípadu, ktorý nedáva zmysel. Prečo dostali niektoré obete anestéziu, zatiaľ čo iné zomierali v mučivých bolestiach? Prečo ich jediný podozrivý popiera to, čo mu môžu nezvratne dokázať, ale priznáva sa k veciam, o ktorých ani nevedeli? A prečo si všetky obete vzali pred tromi rokmi v tom istom čase v práci dvojtýždňové voľno? Keď sa s Poom spojí agentka FBI, ktorá sa dostala do nepriazne svojich šéfov, prípad naberie ešte temnejší spád. Agentka si totiž nemyslí, že Poe hľadá sériového vraha. Vraždy má podľa nej na svedomí niekto oveľa, oveľa horší. Muž, ktorý si hovorí Kurátor.
