The Dragonfly Will Be the Messiah
In twenty short books, Penguin brings you the classics of the environmental movement.
In The Dragonfly Will Be the Messiah, the celebrated pioneer of the 'do-nothing' farming method reflects on global ecological trauma and argues that we must radically transform our understanding of both nature and ourselves in order to have any chance of healing.
Over the past 75 years, a new canon has emerged. As life on Earth has become irrevocably altered by humans, visionary thinkers around the world have raised their voices to defend the planet, and affirm our place at the heart of its restoration. Their words have endured through the decades, becoming the classics of a movement. Together, these books show the richness of environmental thought, and point the way to a fairer, saner, greener world.

Bolo to úplne inak
Tri roky po masakre na ich strednej škole. Tri roky klamstiev.
Má ešte zmysel povedať pravdu?
Lee, Eden, Miles, Ashley a Denny sú jediní, ktorí sa so strelcom stretli a prežili. Teda, ešte Kellie, ale tú radšej nik nespomína. Sarah také šťastie nemala a jej rodičia o nej dokončujú knihu, až na to, že... to celé bolo úplne inak. Má ešte zmysel vyjsť s pravdou von a rozbiť predstavu, ktorú si o Sarah a ostatných vybudoval celý svet?
Nie je na pravdu už neskoro? A komu tým vlastne pomôžu?
Maybe Meant to Be
If Charlie and Sage are meant to be, why can't Sage stop kissing Charlie's brother?
And why can't Charlie stop thinking about kissing the new boy at school?
Everyone at the Bexley School believes that Sage Morgan and Charlie Carmichael are meant to be. Even though Charlie seems to have a new girlfriend every month, and Sage has never had a real relationship, their friends and family all know it's just a matter of time until they realize that they are actually in love.
When Luke Morrissey shows up on campus his presence immediately shakes things up. Charlie and Luke are drawn to each other the moment they meet, giving Sage the opportunity to spend time with Charlie's twin brother, Nick.
But Charlie is afraid of what others will think if he accepts that he has much more than a friendship with Luke. And Sage fears that if she lets things with Nick get too serious too quickly, they won't be able to last as a couple outside of high school and miss their chance at forever. The duo will need to rely on each other and their lifelong friendship to figure things out with the boys they love.
Zvládnem to!
Katka je školáčka, v škole sa jej darí a má veľa kamarátov a kamarátok. Lenže, tak ako každé dieťa, aj ona sa občas ocitne v ťažkej situácii doma či v škole. NIekedy sa skrátka veci nevyvíjajú tak, ako by sa jej to páčilo.
V tomto príbehu deti uvidia, ako sa takéto situácie dajú riešiť. Katka sa nevie načas vychystať do školy, nerada číta pred spolužiakmi, bojí sa výsmechu a má strach z neúspechu.
Prostredníctvom Katkiných zážitkov deti pochopia, že je dôležité stanoviť si cieľ, veriť vo svoje schopnosti a poučiť sa z neúspechu. Nenápadne sa zoznámia s technikami ako povzbudivá vnútorná reč, vizualizácia problému, vnímanie prítomnej chvíľky (mindfulness) a riadené odvádzanie pozornosti.
Ocino naučí večer Katku jednoduché uvoľňovacie cvičenie, po ktorom sa jej myseľ upokojí a ona krásne zaspí.
Reason to Be Happy
Why do our friends have more friends than we do? How do you book the best available seats on a plane? And if jogging for ten minutes adds eight minutes to our life expectancy, should we still go jogging?
The ability to reason is one of our most undervalued skills. In everyday life, the key is to put yourself in the shoes of a clever competitor and think about how they might respond. Whether you are dealing with events on the scale of the Cuban missile crisis or letting go of anger, leading economist Professor Kaushik Basu shows how game theory - the logic of social situations - can help us achieve better outcomes and lasting happiness.
Full of fascinating thought experiments and puzzles, Reason to Be Happy is a paean to the power of rationality.
If you want to have a good life and even make the world a better place, you can start by thinking clearly.

How to be Perfect
How can we live a more ethical life?
This question has plagued people for thousands of years, but it's never been tougher to answer than it is now, thanks to challenges great and small that flood our day-to-day lives and threaten to overwhelm us with impossible decisions and complicated results with unintended consequences.
Plus, being anything close to an 'ethical person' requires daily thought and introspection and hard work; we have to think about how we can be good not, you know, once a month, but literally all the time.
To make it a little less overwhelming, this fascinating, accessible and funny book by one of our generation's best writers and adept minds in television comedy, Michael Schur, boils down the whole confusing morass with real life dilemmas (from 'should I punch my friend in the face for no reason?' to 'can I still enjoy great art if it was created by terrible people?'), so that we know how to deal with ethical dilemmas. Much as Chidi used humour and philosophy to make Eleanor a less selfish person, Schur takes us on a journey through the 2,500-year discussion of ethics, sketching a roadmap for how we ought to act along the way.
By the time the book is done, we'll know exactly how to act in every conceivable situation, so as to produce a verifiably maximal amount of moral good. We will be perfect, and all our friends will be jealous. OK, not quite. Instead, we'll gain fresh, funny, inspiring wisdom on the toughest issues we face every day
With contributions from Professor Todd May of Clemson University, who served as an advisor on The Good Place, this is a brilliant, clever and hugely entertaining book about one of the most important topics in the world.

Co to žere a kde to spí
Obrovské vesmírné překladiště Terango (neboli Terminál Sycango) je kromě přistávacích a odletových ramp kompletně vybudováno pod povrchem planety a personál tvoří jedenáct tisíc lidí a přes dva tisíce androidů. V podstatě jde o město s kompletním vybavením a servisem.
Všechno funguje tak, jak má, až do chvíle, než se začnou ztrácet lidi. Na Zemi se o tom nic neví, dokud se neztratí dcera náměstka baltimorské FBI. Náměstek na Terango pošle vyšetřovatelku Moiru Glaceovou. Jednak mu byla protivná a potřeboval se jí zbavit, jednak mu bylo jasné, že pokud má na Terangu někdo šanci něco vyšetřit, tak jedině drzá neřízená střela, což Moira je. Agentka hned po příletu pochopí, že je vetřelcem v dokonale funkčním, ale zároveň dokonale uzavřeném systému, který za všech okolností drží při sobě, a to včetně umělé inteligence, řídící veškerý provoz Teranga. Ostatně jinak by to ani nešlo, protože černý obchod (zbraně a drogy) tvoří třicet procent provozu překladiště. Systém si velmi rychle zanalyzuje, že Moira ten svůj vyšetřovací čumák strčila příliš hluboko do jeho struktury, a tudíž už se na Zemi vrátit nemůže. Moira má však na věc úplně jiný názor.

How to Be You
So said Simone de Beauvoir, one of the world's most influential philosophers, whose pioneering work asks how we can live our most fulfilling lives and be our most vibrant selves. But in the age of so-called authenticity, what does her philosophy offer us today? In this galvanising tour of her defiant strategies for living, we explore how de Beauvoir can teach us to free ourselves of fears and stereotypes and live in a way that is truly authentic to our desires and beliefs.
At home, at work, in love, families and friendship, Skye Cleary shows us how de Beauvoir's philosophy can help us become more attuned to living purposefully, thoughtfully, and with a little more rebellious spirit. An authentic life is the goal but, warning: happiness may be a side effect.
How to Be Confident
The third number one bestselling instalment in James’ no-nonsense guides to gaining the tools to empower your decision-making and change your life.
Now, more than ever, we are so often lost within a cycle of negativity – from comparing ourselves to others and doom scrolling on social media, to a paralysis of choice and chasing external gratification that does nothing to nurture authentic happiness. We need confidence to master our true ambitions, realise our genuine strengths, and achieve the life we need, but might not know we want. Luckily, with his candid, no-nonsense advice, experience, and passion, James is here to lead the way.
Môžu za to svrčky
„Koľko ľudí denne stretneme bez toho, aby sme ich spoznali? Bez toho, aby sme zistili, ako veľmi by sme si mohli rozumieť? Ja som sa to rozhodol zistiť...“
Dvadsaťdvaročný Ben sa v živote rozhodne nenudí. Od prepustenia z polepšovne už síce prešli štyri roky, no život akoby stále pripomínal sínusoidu vzletov a pádov. Najnovšie sa musí vysťahovať zo sociálneho bytu – štát totiž rozhodol, že už zarába dostatočne na to, aby mu prestal pomáhať s platením nájmu. Ešteže má Jakuba, najlepšieho kamaráta z detstva, ktorý má vždy poruke nejaký šialený nápad. Čo takto podniknúť cestu ich života? Bez plánov a takmer bez peňazí sa k nemu Ben pridáva. Počas cestovania po Amerike stretáva neobyčajných ľudí, prekonáva predsudky a zažíva jedno dobrodružstvo za druhým.
Ako dlho sa však dá unášať na krídlach náhody? Okolnosti Bena prinútia ostať na Ostrove a všetko sa konečne zdá byť v najlepšom poriadku. Ibaže to by sa mu do cesty nemohla pripliesť Vicky, ktorá sa rozhodne otvoriť si na Ostrove malú pizzeriu, aby si zarobila na nahrávacie štúdio...
Môžu za to svrčky je príbeh o hľadaní svojho miesta vo svete, o slobode, dobrodružstve, sile priateľstva, prekonávaní predsudkov a o láske. Príbeh o tom, čo všetko sme ochotní riskovať kvôli milovanému človeku, a o tom, čo všetko dokážeme trpieť tým, ktorí v našom živote zlyhali.

How to Be Somebody Else
Spring 2015, New York.
On the surface Dylan has achieved the impossible - a life in New York, eight years of making this stick. And yet it is not the thing she'd imagined (what had she imagined?). When she walks out of her career, then apartment, and into a housesit for an artist she's never met, she does not tell her friends, her parents back in England, or Matt, her boyfriend, living on the West Coast.
Job-free, rent-free, she'll make good on her book, herself, other things too, she's thinking, when her neighbour Kate shows up and invites her to a party. There she meets Gabe, who happens to be married to Kate but insists, 'it's not a thing'. The affair that follows consumes her and she begins to consider what is fixed and what is variable. Can a person be both? Is Gabe the thing he seems? Is she?
As spring turns to summer, her experiments in living test loyalties and boundaries until an unexpected encounter between the two couples forces her to confront her future.

How to Be Animal
Humans are the most inquisitive, emotional, imaginative, aggressive and baffling animals on the planet. But how well do we really know ourselves?
How to Be Animal offers a radical take on what it means to be human and argues that at the heart of our psychology is a profound struggle with being animal. Tracing the history of this thinking through to its far-reaching effects on our lives, and drawing on a range of disciplines, Challenger proposes that being an animal is a process, beautiful and unpredictable, and that we have a chance to tell ourselves a new story; to realise that if we matter, so does everything else.
