Adéla Elbel: Doba temna
Skončíš v nenáviděné práci v ofisu, začneš chápat, že podobnou přítrž by si zasloužilo i tvé manželství, konečně se odvážíš vnímat sama sebe a své potřeby a bum! Zjistíš, že jsi zase těhotná. Tak by se dal shrnout začátek takzvaného období temna mého života. Zatemnění mysli, temnoty duše i občasné řízené zatemňování mozku. Cesta ven byla složitá, ale přinesla spoustu zkušeností. Především jednu: Get up, stand up, stand up for your life!
This is Planet Earth
The ancient Greeks called it Gaia; the Romans Terra. We know it simply as Earth, the planet we call home. And what a planet it is.
Formed around 4.6 billion years ago from the debris of the big bang and long-dead stars, at first it was nothing special, but somehow it evolved to become the most amazing place in the known Universe. The only living planet we know of, it also has a very unusual moon, a remarkably dynamic surface, a complex atmosphere and a deeply mysterious interior.
This is Planet Earth is dedicated to the wonders of Planet Earth. Its past is long and dramatic and its future shrouded in mystery. Yet despite centuries of research, only now are we starting to understand Earth's complexity.

Kdo vraždí neškodné starce? Kdo se pokouší otrávit Patricije? V době, kdy podzimní mlhy sevřou město Ankh-Morpork do svých spárů, připadne Městské stráži nelehký úkol vystopovat neviditelného vraha. Možná, že něco vědí golemové, ale tihle vážní tvorové z hlíny, kteří pracují celé dny a noci a nikdy nikomu nezpůsobili ani ty nejmenší potíže, najednou začnou páchat sebevraždy. Ne že by Hlídka neměla dost svých vlastních problémů. Tak jsou tady například potíže s vlkodlačicí,. která trpí pre-úplňkovou tenzí, desátníkem Nóblhóchem, jehož posedne noblesa a kamarádíčkuje se s hóch společností, a pak ten trpasličí nováček. Něco s ním není v pořádku. Je na něm každopádně něco divného. Když niv jiného, tak jeho náušnice a oční stíny. Komu se dá důvěřovat, když jsou ulice plné lidí, stíny plné spiklenců a všechny stopy ukazují špatným směrem? Vrchní velitel Hlídky sir Samuel Elánius zjistí, že pravda se vůbec nemusí ukrývat v pochmurných a temných ulicích nočního města.

Herbář přírodní čarodějky
„Volání bylin slýchám už od mala. Vždycky jsem cítila, že magie je něčím přirozeným, že je to proud, který mě celé roky naváděl, abych studovala a používala byliny, abych věnovala pozornost řeči zvířat a nechala se každoročně okouzlit střídáním ročních období, jejich barvami a dary.“
V knize vás autorka seznámí s praktikami a životem přírodní čarodějky, která bydlí poblíž lesa. Ukáže vám, jak se podobně jako ona vydat na stezku bylin, jak pozorovat a objevovat přírodu kolem sebe, jak s bylinami komunikovat, jak je hledat, sbírat, sušit a zpracovávat. Odhalíte hlavní byliny jednotlivých ročních období, dozvíte se o jejich léčivých účincích, seznámíte se s posvátnými zvířaty, získáte několik tajných receptů a tipy na praktiky a aktivity pro různé momenty v životě – a završíte tak celý cyklus jednoho roku. Všechno, co potřebujete vědět, než začnete číst, je, že magie je všude kolem nás. Jen se ji musíte naučit rozpoznávat.
Kniha vychází s nádhernými ilustracemi od Alice Gaudi.
Nick and Charlie
With special bonus content – a brand new Q&A with Alice Oseman
A short novella based on the beloved characters from Alice Oseman’s acclaimed debut novel Solitaire and graphic novel series Heartstopper – now a major Netflix series. From the author of the 2021 YA Book Prize winning Loveless.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?
CHARLIE: “I have been going out with Nick Nelson for two years. He likes rugby, Formula 1, dogs, the Marvel universe, the sound felt-tips make on paper, rain and drawing on shoes. He also likes me.”
NICK: “Things me and Charlie Spring do together include: Watch films. Sit in the same room on different laptops. Text each other from different rooms. Make out. Make food. Make drinks. Get drunk. Talk. Argue. Laugh. Maybe we're kind of boring. But that’s fine with us.”
Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie are the perfect couple – that they’re inseparable. But now Nick is leaving for university, and Charlie will be left behind at Sixth Form. Everyone’s asking if they’re staying together, which is a stupid question – they’re ‘Nick and Charlie’ for God’s sake!
But as the time to say goodbye gets inevitably closer, both Nick and Charlie question whether their love is strong enough to survive being apart. Or are they delaying the inevitable? Because everyone knows that first loves rarely last forever…

Lacná kniha Rem Koolhaas Elements of Architecture (-70%)
"A resource that can be revisited over and over again, one that will arm the current and future designers of our built world with the knowledge they'll need to address the issues they have yet to even confront."-ArchDailyArchitecture is a compelling mixture of stability and flux. In its solid forms, time and space collide, amalgamating distant influences, elements that have been around for over 5,000 years and others that were (re-)invented yesterday.Elements of Architecture focuses on the fragments of the rich and complex architectural collage. Window, facade, balcony, corridor, fireplace, stair, escalator, elevator: The book seeks to excavate the micro-narratives of building detail. The result is no single history, but rather the web of origins, contaminations, similarities, and differences in architectural evolution, including the influence of technological advances, climactic adaptation, political calculation, economic contexts, regulatory requirements, and new digital opportunities.Derived, updated, and expanded from Koolhaas' exhaustive and much-lauded exhibition at the 2014 Venice Architecture Biennale, this is an essential toolkit to understanding the pieces, parts, and fundamentals that comprise structure around the globe. Designed by Irma Boom and based on research from the Harvard Graduate School of Design, the 2,600-page monograph contains essays from Rem Koolhaas, Stephan Trueby, Manfredo di Robilant, and Jeffrey Inaba; interviews with Werner Sobek and Tony Fadell (of Nest); and an exclusive photo essay by Wolfgang Tillmans.

Pasca
Nová kniha poviedok Petra JAROŠA „PASCA“ prináša burleskné majstrovské rozprávačstvo autora. Magické obrazy, vybuchujúci ohňostroj fantázie, filozofické a morálne otázky, neočakávané briskné pointy poviedok. A opäť skúma, čo všetko prekáža človeku, aby bol naozaj šťastný ... dobro aj zlo, lásku aj nenávisť.
Spisovateľ, čerstvý osemdesiatnik, autor ikonických diel Tisícročná včela, Pacho, hybský zbojník a mnohých ďalších próz, filmových, televíznych a rozhlasových scenárov dal knihe veľavravný podtitul: “Neskorý zber“. Prináša zvláštnu zmes dojatia, sentimentálností, nostalgie a živelného magmatického rozprávačstva. Ale aj napätia ,miestami až detektívneho, pri odklínaní ľudských osudov formou poviedky . Jaroš sa pozerá na ľudské príbehy a osudy nielen s veľkorysou empatiou a žičlivosťou, ale najmä so zdravou skepsou. Lebo skepsa je poznaním, že ľudský svet je v neustálej často až provokujúcej zmene hodnôt. Takéto poznanie je často parodické ale zároveň aj poetické a ozdravujúce...

The Gun, the Ship and the Pen
Starting not with the United States, but with the Corsican constitution of 1755, The Gun, the Ship, and the Pen moves through every continent, disrupting accepted narratives. Both monarchs and radicals play a role, from Catherine the Great of Russia, with her remarkable Nakaz, to Sierra Leone's James Africanus Horton, to Tunisia's Khayr-al-Din, a creator of the first modern Islamic constitution. Throughout, Colley demonstrates how constitutions evolved in tandem with warfare, and how they have functioned to advance empire as well as promote nations, and worked to exclude as well as liberate.
Whether reinterpreting Japan's momentous 1889 constitution, or exploring the significance of the first constitution to enfranchise all adult women on Pitcairn Island in the Pacific in 1838, this is one of the most original global histories in decades.
