Fifty Thinkers Who Shaped the Modern World
Stephen Trombley's Fifty Thinkers Who Shaped the Modern World traces the development of modern thought through a sequence of accessible profiles of the most influential thinkers in every domain of intellectual endeavour since 1789. No major represent
ative of post-Enlightenment thought escapes Trombley's attention: the German idealists Kant, Fichte, Schelling and Hegel; the utilitarians Bentham and Mill; the transcendentalists Emerson and Thoreau; Kierkegaard and the existentialists; founders of
new fields of inquiry such as Weber, Durkheim and C.S. Peirce; the analytic philosophers Russell, Moore, Whitehead and Wittgenstein; political leaders from Mohandas K. Gandhi to Adolf Hitler; and - last but not least - the four shapers-in-chief of ou
r modern world: the philosopher, historian and political theorist Karl Marx; the naturalist Charles Darwin, proposer of the theory of evolution; Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis; and the theoretical physicist Albert Einstein, begetter of t
he special and general theories of relativity and founder of post-Newtonian physics. Fifty Thinkers Who Shaped the Modern World offers a crisp analysis of their key ideas, and in some cases a re-evaluation of their importance as we proceed into the 21st century.

Unwomanly Face of War
THE TIMES, TELEGRAPH, GUARDIAN, OBSERVER and ECONOMIST BOOKS OF THE YEAR 2017'A must read' - Margaret Atwood'Extraordinary. . . it would be hard to find a book that feels more important or original' - Viv Groskop, ObserverThe long-awaited translation of the classic oral history of Soviet women's experiences in the Second World War - from the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature"Why, having stood up for and held their own place in a once absolutely male world, have women not stood up for their history? Their words and feelings? A whole world is hidden from us. Their war remains unknown... I want to write the history of that war. A women's history."In the late 1970s, Svetlana Alexievich set out to write her first book, The Unwomanly Face of War, when she realized that she grew up surrounded by women who had fought in the Second World War but whose stories were absent from official narratives. Travelling thousands of miles, she spent years interviewing hundreds of Soviet women - captains, tank drivers, snipers, pilots, nurses and doctors - who had experienced the war on the front lines, on the home front and in occupied territories. As it brings to light their most harrowing memories, this symphony of voices reveals a different side of war, a new range of feelings, smells and colours.After completing the manuscript in 1983, Alexievich was not allowed to publish it because it went against the state-sanctioned history of the war. With the dawn of Perestroika, a heavily censored edition came out in 1985 and it became a huge bestseller in the Soviet Union - the first in five books that have established her as the conscience of the twentieth century.

Atyavilág
Kezdetben vala a Város.
Aztán jöttek a papok, és rátaláltak az Igaz Vallásra.
És így lőn Papváros.
A kételkedők, a gúnyolódók, a kérdezők és tagadók száműzése után új világ születik: az ájtatosok menedéke, a kikényszerített egység, a helyes úton járó polgárok birodalma. Az egyházhierarchikusan demokratikus városállam, ahol mindenki számára világos a különbség jogos és jogtalan éhezés között, ahol imával oltják a tüzet, ahol a gyerekeknek már az iskolában megtanítják kordában tartani zabolátlan gondolataikat, és ahol a kecskebőrbe kötött alkotmánykötet mindenkit pontosan eligazít, mit szabad és mit nem. Végre megkezdődhet a felkészülés a Megváltó érkezésére.
De mi van, ha a Megváltó csak nem akar megérkezni? És mi lesz, ha egy nap mégis megérkezik?
Kal Pintér Mihály első regénye sodró utazás a Hit Városába, egy feje tetején pörgő, szédítő világba. Arcátlanul őszinte szatíra, amelyen sírva nevethetünk és nevetve sírhatunk.
Semmiképp ne keresgéljünk hasonlóságokat a valósággal. Azok előbb-utóbb úgyis megtalálnak.

Stallo
What if something is out there? This is a haunting supernatural thriller for fans of Let the Right One In, The Passage and Salem's Lot. "I was enthralled form the very first page...the words seems to sparkle on the page." (Karl Ove Knausgaard). In the summer of 1978 a young boy disappears without trace from a summer cabin in the woods. His mother claims that he was abducted by a giant. The boy is never found. The previous year, over in a Swedish National Park, a wildlife photographer takes a strange picture from his small airplane, of a bear running over the marshes. On its back sits a creature, which the photographer claims is something extraordinary. Twenty-five years later, and back in Laponia, Susso runs a much-maligned web page, one dedicated to searching for creatures whose existence have not yet been proven: the Yeti, the Loch Ness Monster, Big Foot. But Susso has her own obsession, one inherited from her grandfather, the well-known wildlife photographer. When an old woman claims that a small creature has been standing outside her house, observing her and her five year old grandson for hours, Susso picks up her camera and leaves for what will become a terrifying adventure into the unknown...

Alexander Veľký 2
Ázia, krajina vychádzajúceho slnka, kolíska legendárnych civilizácií, neobmedzené panstvo Veľkého Kráľa Peržanov: nikto z Grékov by sa neodvážil ani len pomyslieť na dobytie takej nekonečnej ríše. No Alexander so svojimi mužmi sa vrhá do nepredstaviteľného dobrodružstva. Porazí nepriateľské vojsko na bojovom poli, jeden po druhom dobýva pevnosti a prístavy, z ktorých Peržania ovládajú more: mocný Milét, mýtické Sardy, hlavné mesto kráľov Midasa a Kroisa, nedobytný Halikarnassos. Postupuje smerom k anatólskej náhornej plošine pokrytej snehom a prebojuje si cestu k starobylej svätyni , kde jediným úderom meča presekne uzol na oji voza kráľa Gordionu: starobylé proroctvo hovorí, že ten, kto ho rozviaže, získa vládu nad Áziou...

Ghost of Karl Marx
At its most basic, philosophy is about learning how to think about the world around us. It should come as no surprise, then, that children make excellent philosophers! Naturally inquisitive, pint-size scholars need little prompting before being willing to consider life s big questions, however strange or impractical. Plato & Co. introduces children and curious grown-ups to the lives and work of famous philosophers, from Descartes to Socrates, Einstein, Marx, and Wittgenstein. Each book in the series features an engaging and often funny story that presents basic tenets of philosophical thought alongside vibrant color illustrations. In The Ghost of Karl Marx, the philosopher is saddened when the town weavers must sell their cloth cheaply to compete with machines. The farmers too cannot sell their crops and have no money to buy new seeds. Forced to leave their work, the townspeople form an angry crowd in front of the factories, but what is to be done when there are so many hungry people and so few jobs to pay for food to eat? Concealed in one of the weavers sheets, the philosopher makes a solemn vow to give this story a happy ending by finding the Market, that infernal magician, and ridding the town of him once and for all. Plato & Co.'s clear approach and charming illustrations make this series the perfect addition to any little library."

Schinkel
A duty to beauty: Building landmarks for Berlin and beyondWith an eye for detail as much as expanse, Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781 1841) made his name as an architect and urban planner, a painter, and as a designer of both furniture and stage sets. His work was so admired by King Frederick William III that Schinkel acted as state architect of Prussia for nearly his entire career, creating major landmarks in Berlin, including the National Theatre and the Altes Museum.Much of Schinkel s most famous work adopted Neo-Classical aesthetics, drawing upon Ancient Greek paradigms rather than those of Imperial Rome. He would subsequently turn to a Neo-Gothic style, as seen in the elegant windows and soaring nave of Berlin s Friedrichswerder Church. Later, Schinkel would adopt an unusually streamlined, red brick facade in the Academy of Architecture, now considered a forerunner of modern architecture.Considered a genius by contemporaries, Schinkel now gets the TASCHEN treatment with this richly illustrated introduction to his expansive uvre and commitment to beautiful form and function.About the series: Each book in TASCHEN s Basic Architecture series features: an introduction to the life and work of the architect the major works in chronological order information about the clients, architectural preconditions as well as construction problems and resolutions a list of all the selected works and a map indicating the locations of the best and most famous buildings approximately 120 illustrations (photographs, sketches, drafts and plans)"
