A könyv története
Különlegesen igényes összeállítású, színes fotókkal illusztrált mű, amelyet tableten olvasásra különösen ajánlunk. A mű megjelenését a Nemzeti Kulturális Alap támogatta. Az emberek szeretik a listákat. A könyvek világában a listák külön műfajjá váltak: „az évszázad legjobb könyvei”, „100 könyv, amelyet el kell olvasnod, mielőtt meghalsz” és így tovább. Ez a kötet is egy ilyesféle lista: csodálatos tárgyak csodálatos felsorolása, amely korszakokon és kultúrákon átívelő összefüggéseket tár az olvasó elé. Kevés ember bír olyan széles és mély tudással, amely egy ilyen lista összeállításához szükséges. Rod Cave évtizedek óta dolgozik ezen a területen, több tucatnyi kötet és tanulmány áll mögötte. Páratlanul sokat tud a könyvről, arról, hogy milyen formákban jelent meg és milyen helyet töltött be a történelemben. Így hát nem meglepetés, hogy ebben a kötetben olyan kérdéseket tárgyal, amelyeket a könyv történetével foglalkozó szerzők ritkán tesznek fel maguknak. Ennek a lebilincselő könyvnek a másik szerzője Sara Ayad, az irodalom, a képzőművészet, valamint a könyvtörténet kutatója. Ayad és Cave a kiválasztott könyvek meséiből – mint kárpitot színes fonalakból – szövi meg a szépség és az intrika történetét. Az ilyesfajta könyvekben természetesen megtalálhatók bizonyos alapvető munkák: barlang falára és állatcsontokra írt szövegek, agyagtáblák és bambuszkönyvek, az Íliász és a Beowulf, illuminált középkori kéziratok, a Gutenberg-Biblia és a Nürnbergi krónika. De találunk itt az Andokból származó csomóírásos kiput az inkák korát megelőző időkből, papirusztekercseket, szerepel a Koreai Tripitaka és a kopt Biblia, hogy csak négyet említsünk. A puszta felsorolást kiegészítő rövid esszék a könyveket – a legkorábbiaktól az e-könyvekig – helyezik el történeti környezetükben. A válogatás különleges azért is, mert a fontos – bár gyakran nem eléggé méltányolt – könyveket a tudós és a laikus olvasó érdeklődésének széles területeiről gyűjtötte össze. A koncepció eredetisége, a témák és az egyes könyvek fontossága, a nagyszerű képanyag, a hozzájuk tartozó ismertetők és képaláírások együttesen teszik nagyszerűvé ezt a művet. Annyi más, könyvek listáit összeállító könyvtől eltérően ez a kötet elég merész és éleslátó ahhoz, hogy figyelembe vegye a táncról vagy a titkosírásról szóló szövegeket, a képregényeket, a mini- és nanokönyveket, a palimpszeszteket, a

Smrť Bunnyho Munroa
Bunny je v angličtine ušiačik, zajačik či králiček a v prenesenom zmysle slova aj krásavica alebo záletník. Hrdina románu Smrť Bunnyho Munroa je typickým dobyvateľom ženských sŕdc a najmä tiel. Podomovému obchodníkovi ponúkajúcemu kozmetické prípravky sa však záletníctvo vypomstí: keď ho manželka pristihne in flagranti a sklamaná spácha samovraždu, ostáva s deväťročným synom Bunnym mladším a smrteľne chorým otcom Bunnym starším sám. Nick Cave rozvíja sprvu úsmevný, ale čoraz väčšmi tragikomický príbeh o vine, treste a pokání. Autor v sebe nezapiera rockového hudobníka nielen bohatou inštrumentalizáciou rozprávania, ale najmä budovaním rozsiahlej metafory, v ktorej sa podobne ako v jeho prvom románe miešajú prvky reálneho rozprávania so snovými víziami a symbolikou. Nie náhodou sa počas príbehu rúti naprieč Anglickom Rohatý zabijak, nadržaný mladík s umelými rohami a trojzubcom, ktorý terorizuje húfy žien v obchodných centrách. Nie náhodou sa v Bunnyho malom aute ozýva rytmizujúci spev

Developmental Biology
From a single cell - a fertilized egg - comes an elephant, a fly, or a human. How does this astonishing feat happen? How does the egg 'know' what to become? How does it divide into the different cells, the separate tissues, the brain, the fingernail - every tiniest detail of the growing foetus? These are the questions that the field of developmental biology seeks to answer. It is an area that is closely linked to genetics, evolution, and molecular biology. The processes are deeply rooted in evolutionary history; the information is held in genes whose vital timings in switching on and off is orchestrated by a host of proteins expressed by other genes. Timing is of the essence. Here, the distinguished developmental biologist Lewis Wolpert gives a concise account of what we now know about development, discussing the first vital steps of growth, the patterning created by Hox genes and the development of form, embryonic stem cells, the timing of gene expression and its management, chemical signalling, and growth.

Mind Fixers: Psychiatrys Troubled Search for the Biology of Mental Illness
In Mind Fixers, Anne Harrington, author of The Cure Within, explores psychiatry's repeatedly frustrated struggle to understand mental disorder in biomedical terms. She shows how the stalling of early twentieth century efforts in this direction allowed Freudians and social scientists to insist, with some justification, that they had better ways of analysing and fixing minds.
But when the Freudians overreached, they drove psychiatry into a state of crisis that a new "biological revolution" was meant to alleviate. Harrington shows how little that biological revolution had to do with breakthroughs in science and why the field has fallen into a state of crisis in our own time.
Mind Fixers makes clear that psychiatry's waxing and waning biological enthusiasms have been shaped, not just by developments in the clinic and lab, but also by a surprising range of social factors including immigration, warfare, grassroots activism and assumptions about race and gender. Government programmes designed to empty the state mental hospitals, acrid rivalries between different factions in the field, industry profit mongering, consumerism and an uncritical media have all contributed to the story as well.
In focusing particularly on the search for the biological roots of schizophrenia, depression and bipolar disorder, Harrington underscores the high human stakes for the millions of people who have sought medical answers for their mental suffering. This is not just a story about doctors and scientists but about countless ordinary people and their loved ones.
A clear-eyed, evenhanded and yet passionate tour de force, Mind Fixers recounts the past and present struggle to make mental illness a biological problem in order to lay the groundwork for creating a better future, both for those who suffer and for those whose job it is to care for them.

A könyv története
"Az elektronikus könyv megjelenése fordulópontot hozott "a könyv" történetében. Ebben a sorsdöntő pillanatban, amikor a könyv jövőjéről van szó, tekintsünk vissza az előző ötezer évre: a barlangfestményektől az egyszerű papírkönyvig, sőt a digitális könyvig és ami azután következik.
Ebben segít bennünket a világ tudáskincsének legjavát őrző tárgyakról készült több mint háromszáz színes, ritkán látott felvétel. Egyes művek azért kerültek ide, mert klasszikus példái a könyvkészítés valamely korszakának, másoknak tartalma és hatása miatt adtunk helyet. Valamilyen módon mindegyik könyv fontos szerepet töltött be az eszmék és a tudás közvetítésének sok évezredes történetében." (a Kiadó)

Cave Art
Deep underground, hidden from view, some of humanity's earliest artistic endeavours have lain buried for thousands of years. The most ancient artworks were portable objects, left on cave floors. Shell beads signal that 100,000 years ago humans had developed a sense of self and a desire to beautify the body; ostrich eggshells incised with curious geometric patterns hint at how communities used art, through the power of symbols, to communicate ways of doing things and bind people together. In time, people came to adorn cave walls with symbols, some abstract, others vivid arrangements of animals and humans. Often undisturbed for tens of thousands of years, these were among the first visual symbols that humans shared with each other. However, as archaeologist Bruno David reveals, we have ways of unlocking their secrets. Sometimes these lie in the art itself, sometimes lying on the ground, or buried beneath where people have left traces of what they did, footprints of the ancestors. In pictures and words, David tells the story of this mysterious world of decorated caves, from the oldest known 'painting kits', found virtually intact after their use 100,000 years ago in South Africa, to the magnificent murals of the European Ice Age that are so famous today. Showcasing the most astounding discoveries made in the past 150 years of archaeological exploration, Cave Art explores these creative achievements, from our remotest ancestors to recent times, and what they tell us about the human past and ourselves today.

Bio kokosový prášok (65 %), Bio japonská matcha (25 %), Bio kokosový cukor (10 %). Nevhodné pre deti a tehotné ženy.
Použitie
Tradičná cesta: Ohrej mlieko a pridaj 2 lyžičky latte, premiešaj a máš hotovo!
Rýchla voľba: Použi latte mix, pridaj horúcu vodu a premiešaj.
Vegánska alternatíva: Kombinuj rastlinné mlieko s latte mixom pre dokonalú vegánsku verziu.
Vedel/a si, že:
matcha je typ zeleného čaju, ktorý je 137-krát silnejší ako bežný čaj;
100 % Bio zmes matchy a najčistejšieho kokosového prášku osladená štipkou kokosového cukru ti ráno vykúzli úsmev na tvári;
jedna šálka obsahuje 50 mg kofeínu, ktorý sa uvoľňuje postupne a tým ti dodá stabilnejšiu energiu.
Prečo si vybrať kvalitné zloženie?
Matcha má vysoký obsah látok, ktoré pôsobia ako antioxidanty, vrátane katechínov. Matcha obsahuje živiny z celého čajového listu, čo vedie k väčšiemu množstvu kofeínu a antioxidantov, než sa zvyčajne nachádza v zelenom čaji.
Ak chceš svojmu telu naozaj pomôcť, je dôležité použiť všetky ingrediencie v tej najvyššej organickej kvalite. Veľa ingrediencií sa totiž dováža z miest, na ktorých majú na pestovanie nízke štandardy a všetko sa postrekuje chemikáliami. Uprednostni kvalitu namiesto kvantity. Priemernej kvalite matcha čaju sa vyhni zďaleka – môže ti viac poškodiť ako pomôcť.

Cave Cybernetic V1
Cave Carson has a cybernetic eye. But you knew that already. The question is, why was this spelunking adventurer fitted with a bionic implant and what do the visions it's giving him mean? Before his cybernetic eye started showing Cave Carson a world outside his own, he had retired from his life of exploring the center of the Earth with his wife, Eileen, and they had settled into a comfortable, if not mundane, existence above the surface. That is, until Eileen got sick. Now, newly widowed, a knock on the door of Cave's underground lab has brought him back into the world he thought he left behind, beneath the surface of the Earth. Co-written by Gerard Way (DOOM PATROL) and Jon Rivera (HEARTBREAK), with stunning art by Michael Avon Oeming (POWERS), this absurdist take on one of DC's more obscure spelunkers explores love and loss, and the line between reality and perception. Collects issues #1-6. CAVE CARSON HAS A CYBERNETIC EYE is a part of DC's Young Animal--a four-book, grassroots, mature reader imprint, creatively spearheaded by Gerard Way, bridging the gap between the DC Universe and Vertigo, and focusing on the juxtaposition between visual and thematic storytelling.

Behave - The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst
Why do we do what we do? Behave is at once a dazzling tour and a majestic synthesis of the whole science of human behaviour. Brought to life through simple language, engaging stories and irreverent wit, it offers the fullest picture yet of the origins of tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, morality and free will, war and peace. Robert Sapolsky's ingenious method is to move backwards in time from the moment at which a behaviour occurs, layer by layer through the myriad influences that led to it: - We begin with the split-second reactions of the brain and nervous system...Then we consider our response to sight, sound and smell in the minutes and seconds beforehand...Next he explains the interactions of hormones, which prime our behaviour in the preceding hours and days...He proceeds through the experiences of adolescence, childhood and foetal development that shape us over our lifespans...And continues over centuries and millennia through the profound influences of genetic inheritance, cultural context and ultimately the evolutionary origins of our species. Throughout, Sapolsky considers the most important question: what causes acts of aggression or compassion?What inspires us to terrible deeds and what might help foster our best behaviour? Wise, humane, often very funny, Behave is a towering achievement, powerfully humanizing, that is unlikely to be surpassed for many years

The Longevity Book The Biology of Resilience
From Cameron Diaz, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Body Book, comes a fresh, personal, and authoritative examination of the art and science of growing older and a roadmap for abundant health and resilience as we age. When Cameron Diaz wrote The Body Book, she was on a mission to help educate young women about how their bodies function, empowering them to make better-informed choices about their health instead of heeding the advice of the latest headline or trend. So she interviewed doctors, scientists, nutritionists and a host of other experts, and then shared what she'd learned with young women everywhere in a comprehensive volume hailed as 'smart', 'brimming with science' and 'the real deal'. Once again Cameron Diaz is on a mission. But this time, she's starting a conversation with her peers on a topic that is virtually taboo in our society: the ageing female body. In The Longevity Book, she will share everything she's learned about the ageing process from top medical experts and researchers, as well as her own thoughts, opinions, and experiences on a topic that is as essential to our health as it is emotionally charged and culturally neglected. The Longevity Book will explore what history, biology, neuroscience and the women's health movement can teach us about maintaining optimal health as we transition from our thirties to midlife. From how growing older impacts various bodily systems to the biological differences in the way ageing effects men and women; the latest science on telomeres and slowing the rate of cognitive decline to how meditation heals us and why love, friendship and laughter matter for health. The Longevity Book will offer an all-encompassing, holistic look at how the female body ages - and what we can all do to age better. Cameron offers women a compassionate, informative and intimate tour through the next volume of life.
