Lacná kniha The struggle for Slovakia and the Treaty of Trianon 1918-1920 (-90%)
Monografia je upraveným a doplneným vydaním slovenskej publikácie Boj o Slovensko a Trianon 1918 – 1920. V porovnaní so slovenskou verziou má koncepčnú úpravu s väčším dôrazom na vedecký charakter práce súvisiaci so širšou pramennou bázou a celkovým heuristickým charakterom. Cieľom práce je osvetliť postavenie Slovenska v období od rozpadnutia Rakúsko-Uhorska do podpísania mierovej zmluvy s Maďarskom v Trianone, ako výsledok gradácie boja za nezávislosť Česko-slovenského štátu. A to na pozadí širšej domácej a medzinárodnej situácie.
Problematika je spracovaná vo viacerých rovinách. V prvej zachytil autor celkový vývojový trend Slovenska, v druhej rovinu slovensko-maďarských vzťahov, osobitne v zápase proti pokusom Maďarska udržať nadvládu nad Slovenskom. V tretej sledoval česko-slovenský kontext pri formovaní spoločného štátu a postavenie Slovenska v novom štáte. Názvy kapitol sú identické s kapitolami v pôvodnej slovenskej publikácii, anglická verzia je však obsahovo od tretej kapitoly (celkovo šesť kapitol) rozšírená.

The Bear in the Stars
A stunning, lyrical picture book - a timely fable about climate change and the transformative power of kindness.
There was once a bear, a great, white bear - Queen of Beasts. Her kingdom was a beautiful, cold, glistening place. But over the years the ice disappeared, slipping away like sand through an hourglass. Slowly, slowly, one by one, the other animals moved on.
The Great Bear has no choice but to leave her snowy realm to search for food, friends and a new home. She soon discovers a world that is growing hotter whilst hearts grow colder - until one small act of kindness changes everything.
The Bear in the Stars is a story about loss, kindness and new beginnings.
A beautiful and inspirational book for readers of all ages.

The Fund
The unauthorized, unvarnished story of famed Wall Street hedge-fund manager Ray Dalio.
When Ray Dalio, billionaire founder of Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund, announced in October 2022 that he was stepping down from the company he founded 47 years ago, the news made headlines around the world. Dalio achieved worldwide fame thanks to a mystique of success cultivated in frequent media appearances, celebrity hobnobbing, and his bestselling book, Principles. In The Fund, Rob Copeland draws on hundreds of interviews with those inside and around the firm to reveal what really goes on with Dalio and his cohorts behind closed doors.
Tracing more than fifty years of Dalio's leadership, The Fund peels back the curtain to reveal a rarefied world of wealth and power, where former FBI director Jim Comey kisses Dalio's ring, recent Pennsylvania Senate candidate David McCormick sells out, and countless Bridgewater acolytes describe what it's like to work at this fascinating firm.
Dalio has stepped down from Bridgewater before; will the legacy of his Principles continue to chart the course of the firm? The Fund provides unique insight into the story of Dalio and Bridgewater, past, present and future.

The Making of the Modern Middle East
Jeremy Bowen, the International Editor of the BBC, has been covering the Middle East since 1989 and is uniquely placed to explain its complex past and its troubled present.
In The Making of the Modern Middle East - in part based on his acclaimed podcast, 'Our Man in the Middle East' - Bowen takes us on a journey across the Middle East and through its history. He meets ordinary men and women on the front line, their leaders, whether brutal or benign, and he explores the power games that have so often wreaked devastation on civilian populations as those leaders, whatever their motives, jostle for political, religious and economic control.
With his deep understanding of the political, cultural and religious differences between countries as diverse as Erdogan's Turkey, Assad's Syria and Netanyahu's Israel and his long experience of covering events in the region, Bowen offers readers a gripping and invaluable guide to the modern Middle East, how it came to be and what its future might hold.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
A special new edition in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the publication of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, with a stunning new cover illustration by Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick.
The Dursleys were so mean and hideous that summer that all Harry Potter wanted was to get back to the Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. But just as he's packing his bags, Harry receives a warning from a strange, impish creature named Dobby who says that if Harry Potter returns to Hogwarts, disaster will strike.
And strike it does. For in Harry's second year at Hogwarts, fresh torments and horrors arise, including an outrageously stuck-up new professor, Gilderoy Lockhart, a spirit named Moaning Myrtle who haunts the girls' bathroom, and the unwanted attentions of Ron Weasley's younger sister, Ginny.
But each of these seem minor annoyances when the real trouble begins, and someone - or something - starts turning Hogwarts students to stone. Could it be Draco Malfoy, a more poisonous rival than ever? Could it possibly be Hagrid, whose mysterious past is finally told? Or could it be the one everyone at Hogwarts most suspects... Harry Potter himself!
This gorgeous new edition in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the publication of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone features a newly designed cover illustrated by Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick, as well as the beloved original interior decorations by Mary GrandPré.
