Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt
Spanning a lifetime of love and loss, crossing borders and oceans, Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt, co-authored by her son Harry Whittaker, draws Lucinda Riley's Seven Sisters series to its stunning, unforgettable conclusion.
1928, Paris
A boy is found, moments from death, and taken in by a kindly family. Gentle, precocious, talented, he flourishes in his new home, and the family show him a life he hadn't dreamed possible. But he refuses to speak a word about who he really is.
As he grows into a young man, falling in love and taking classes at the prestigious Conservatoire de Paris, he can almost forget the terrors of his past, or the promise he has vowed to keep. But across Europe an evil is rising, and no-one's safety is certain. In his heart, he knows the time will come where he must flee once more.
2008, the Aegean
The seven sisters are gathered together for the first time, on board the Titan to say a final goodbye to the enigmatic father they loved so dearly.
To the surprise of everyone, it is the missing sister who Pa Salt has chosen to entrust with the clue to their pasts. But for every truth revealed, another question emerges. The sisters must confront the idea that their adored father was someone they barely knew. And even more shockingly: that these long-buried secrets may still have consequences for them today.
Drevená dedina - Rivers of Babylon (2)
Rivers of Babylon 2 alebo Drevená dedina je voľné pokračovanie debutového románu Petra Pišťanka. Autor v ňom predviedol to, čo sa už v náznakoch dalo zistiť v jeho predchádzajúcej tvorbe – motivické, no najmä personálne prepájanie jednotlivých príbehov samostatných textov. Rivers of Babylon 2 nie je len pokračovaním a rozvíjaním osudov hrdinov prvého autorovho románu, ale zároveň nadväzuje aj na novelu Muzika z knižky Mladý Dônč. Do popredia sa dostáva jej hlavný hrdina Martin Junec, no i postavy, ktoré mali v prvej časti len epizódny charakter. Ústredný protagonista z prvého románu Rácz sa tu už iba mihne....

Chaol Westfall and Nesryn Faliq have arrived in the shining city of Antica to forge an alliance with the Khagan of the Southern Continent, whose vast armies are Erilea's last hope. But they have also come to Antica for another purpose: to seek healing at the famed Torre Cesme for the wounds Chaol received in Rifthold.
After enduring unspeakable horrors as a child at the hands of Adarlanian soldiers, Yrene Towers has no desire to help the young lord from Adarlan, let alone heal him. Yet she has sworn an oath to assist those in need, and she will honour it. But Lord Westfall carries his own dark past, and Yrene soon realises that those shadows could engulf them both.
Chaol, Nesryn, and Yrene will have to draw on every scrap of their resilience to overcome the danger that surrounds them. But while they become entangled in the political webs of the khaganate, long-awaited answers slumber deep in the mountains, where warriors soar on legendary ruks. Answers that might offer their world a chance at survival ... or doom them all.

Elements of Time Series Econometrics: an Applied Approach
Kniha přináší soubor základních i pokročilých technik a postupů používaných v ekonometrické analýze časových řad. Kniha klade důraz na umožnění efektivního použití popsaných technik v aplikovaném ekonomickém výzkumu. Toho je dosaženo tím, že teoretické základy popsané ekonometrie jsou prezentovány spolu s intuitivním vysvětlením problematiky a jednotlivé techniky jsou ilustrovány na výsledcích současného výzkumu a to především v kontextu procesu nedávné ekonomické transformace a současné evropské integrace. Toto pojetí z knihy činí nejen učebnici v klasickém smyslu, ale také užitečný referenční zdroj neboť odkazy v knize spojují klasickou i moderní ekonometrickou literaturu se soudobými aplikacemi, na nichž je použití jednotlivých technik jasně pochopitelné. Mnohá použití vycházejí z bohaté předchozí práce autorů v oboru.
Text knihy je rozdělen do pěti hlavních částí. První část, “The Nature of Time Series”, přináší úvod do analýzy časových řad a popis jejich nejdůležitějších charakteristik, vlastností a procesů. Druhá část, “Difference Equations”, stručně popisuje teorii diferenciálních rovnic s důrazem na aspekty, které jsou klíčové v ekonometrii časových řad. Třetí část, “Univariate Time Series”, poměrně rozsáhle popisuje techniky, které se používají při analýze jednotlivých časových řad bez jejich vzájemené interakce a zahrnuje jak lineární tak nelineární modelované struktury. Čtvrtá část, “Multiple Time Series”, popisuje modely které umožňují analýzu několika časových řad a jejich vzájemných interakcí. Pátá část “Panel Data and Unit Root Tests”, zahrnuje některé techniky postavené na panelových datech, jež k průřezovým datům přidávají časovou dimenzi a vztahují se k analýze konvergence. Závěr knihy je doplněn o úvod do simulační techniky a statistické tabulky.

An exciting Early History of Hungary
This book covers probably the most interesting part of the history of the Hungarian nation from the very beginnings to the era of Saint Stephen, the founder of the Hungarian state. The style of it is deliberately easy because the author wanted to provide the readers with real pleasure while reading it. Beside the historical facts there are enclosed enjoyable legends in connection with both significant people and events of Hungarian history. It is sure that after reading (and probably rereading) this book everybody can get closer to this nation because there is a mass of information in it about everyday life of the nomadic Magyars, their warfare, reigning principles, marriage alliances, wanderings from the far side of Siberia to the other side of the Karpathian Basin and even to the Ocean. An interesting mixture of people live in the Karpathian Basin nowadays because the ancestors of the Magyars, the new settlers at those times came here together with some other tribes and found here some other nations not mentioning those who were captured during wanderings and taken here into the Karpathian Basin to serve the Magyars and to live with them in peace. This diversity makes the people living in Hungary today really exciting, friendly and adventurous and their history is worth reading.
