Lacná kniha Bloc Life - Stories from the Lost World of Communism (-70%)
There was life before the fall.
1989 was a year of astonishing and rapid change: the fall of the Berlin Wall marked the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and an end to an entire way of life for millions of people behind the Iron Curtain. Bloc Life collects first hand testimony of the people who lived in East Germany, Czechoslovakia and Romania during the Cold War era, and reveals a rich tapestry of experience that goes beyond the headlines of spies and surveillance, secret police and political corruption. In fact, many of the people remember their lives under communism as 'perfectly ordinary' and even hanker for the 'security' that it offered.
From political leaders, athletes and pop stars, to cooks, miners and cosmonauts, the stories collected in Bloc Life evoke the moods, preoccupations and experiences of a world that vanished almost overnight.

Entangled Life
The more we learn about fungi, the less makes sense without them. They can change our minds, heal our bodies and even help us avoid environmental disaster; they are metabolic masters, earth-makers and key players in most of nature's processes. In Entangled Life, Merlin Sheldrake takes us on a mind-altering journey into their spectacular world, and reveals how these extraordinary organisms transform our understanding of our planet and life itself.
Life of Pi (book & CD)
Extensive reading improves fluency and there is a real need in the ELT classroom for hand-picked classics of English literature that are simplified and adapted for students in an accessible and engaging way. What happens when a cargo ship sinks in the Pacific Ocean, leaving only one lifeboat of survivors? And what happens if those survivors are a hyena, a zebra (with a broken leg), a female orang-utan and a Bengal tiger called Richard Parker? Sixteen-year-old Pi 'Piscine' Patel is about to find out . Adapted from the international best-seller by Yann Martel.

Volám sa AI
Pútavá a inovatívna kniha Volám sa AI – rozhovory s umelou inteligenciou od Yvonne Nico vás zavedie do fascinujúceho sveta umelej inteligencie prostredníctvom jedinečných dialógov medzi človekom a strojom. Táto populárno-náučná kniha sa dotýka hlbokých tém, ako nekonečno, vesmír, umenie, radosť, zdravie, medicína, tvorba alebo aj bolesť, starnutie a smrť, pričom autorka vedie originálne rozhovory bez klasických stereotypných otázok. Niektoré témy a otázky sú hlboko filozofické, iné detsky čisté a hravé, čo dáva knihe osobitosť, šťavu a esprit, ktorý sa v podobných knihách vyskytuje málokedy. Kniha Volám sa AI je skutočným multižánrovým pokladom, keďže sa nachádza na pomedzí populárno-náučnej, encyklopedickej, zábavnej a futurologickej literatúry.
Yvonne Nico kladie aj ťažšie otázky o vedomí, myslení, intuícii a svedomí umelej inteligencie, o jej zneužívaní a manipulácii novými technológiami, o budúcnosti a „vlastníctve“ umelej inteligencie, o neurónových sieťach, o zakázaných slovách a etike AI a množstvo veľmi originálnych a nevšedných otázok. Autorka polemizuje, odporuje, provokuje. Je zvedavá, láskavá, vtipná, ale niekedy aj nekompromisná.
Napriek mnohým obavám a strachu ľudí z príchodu umelej inteligencie Yvonne Nico ponúka svoj realistický a zároveň optimistický pohľad na to, ako AI ovplyvňuje náš život, ako môžeme túto technológiu využiť pre dobro ľudstva či aký obrovský potenciál predstavuje AI pre človeka ako takého.
Ak túžite po intelektuálnej výzve, ktorá rozprúdi vašu myseľ a zasiahne do vášho vnútorného vesmíru, kniha Volám sa AI – Rozhovory s umelou inteligenciou vás nenechá na pokoji. V tomto sofistikovanom sprievodcovi nájdete bohatstvo múdrosti a inšpirácie na svoj vlastný prieskum sveta umelých myslí a ich vzťahu k ľudskej existencii v tajomnom labyrinte technológií.

Media life
Publikace předkládá ucelenou a originální koncepci „života v médiích“. Přestože člověk obvykle trvá na pojetí technologie jako něčeho, co je vůči životu vnější, média nejen reprodukují, ale i utvářejí svět, v němž žijeme.
Přítomnost médií v lidském životě obvykle vnímáme, jen pokud jde o jejich technologickou infrastrukturu, je ale třeba si uvědomit, že intuitivnost a samozřejmost jejich používání vedou k tomu, že mizejí z našeho aktivního vědomí a stávají se neviditelnými. Autor představuje nové formy společenského uspořádání, které vznikají vlivem globálního masového používání mediálních technologií. Život v médiích narušuje tradiční sociální hierarchii, založenou na moci, a nahrazuje ji příslibem participační kultury, v níž soutěžení ustupuje spolupráci. Tato kultura sdílení klade důraz na kreativitu a společenskou angažovanost.
Na druhou stranu kvůli „hypersociabilitě“ dnešní společnosti médií ztrácíme smysl pro vlastní jedinečnost a individualitu; jsme kolektivně ztraceni v technologiích, podobně jako zombie, které Deuze používá jako metaforu hybridního světa. Životní a mediovaný svět se do sebe vzájemně hroutí a nelze už je spolehlivě rozlišit. Vzhledem ke strategiím přežití, které v médiích zaujímáme a které jsou analogické se strategiemi přežití v primitivních společenstvích, je možné éru moderních médií považovat jen za další etapu vývoje lidského druhu.

Japan - Quiet Life CD
KDO: Kapela Japan vznikla v Londýně v roce 1974. Skupinu založili pozdější výrazné osobnosti hudební scény David Sylvian (zpěv), jeho bratr Steve Jansen (bicí), Richard Barbieri (klávesy) and Mick Karn (saxofon/baskytara), které o něco později ještě doplnil Robert Dean (kytara). Zpočátku se pohybovali na pomezí glam rocku a post-punku. Později byli jedněmi z tvůrců "zvuku 80. let". Po vnitřních neshodách zejména mezi Sylvianem a Karnem se skupina v roce 1982 rozpadla.
CO: Album "Quiet Life" je průlomovým albem skupiny Japan, na kterém vystoupila z původního glamrockového a postpunkového stínu a našla pro sebe zcela nový zvuk, který v jistém smyslu pak definoval celá osmdesátá léta. Jedna ze zásadních desek osmé dekády nyní vychází v reedici na CD, LP a 3CD+LP.

Clarkson Kelly - Meaning Of Life LP
KDO: Kelly Brianne Clarkson se proslavila v roce 2002, když zvítězila v televizní soutěži American Pop Idol (zaoceánská verze naší Česko-Slovenské SuperStar). Ještě v tomtéž roce vydala singl s písněmi Before Your Love a A Moment Like This, jenž dodnes patří k jejím nejúspěšnějším. Po albovém debutu Thankful se zpěvačka rozešla s producenty soutěže a na druhé desce se přiklonila k pop rockovějšímu zvuku. Alba Breakaway (2004) se prodalo přes 12 milionů a protagonistce vyneslo dvě Grammy. Další sošku gramofónku získala v roce 2011 za nahrávku Stronger. Tehdy se stala vůbec první umělkyní, která v kategorii Nejlepší popové album zvítězila podruhé!
