Animal Farm: The Illustrated Edition
2015 is the 70th anniversary of Animal Farm. To commemorate this important anniversary, Penguin Classics is republishing the classic illustrated Animal Farm by Joy Batchelor and John Halas. When the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master Mr Jones and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. But gradually a cunning, ruthless elite among them, masterminded by the pigs Napoleon and Snowball, starts to take control. Soon the other animals discover that they are not all as equal as they thought, and find themselves hopelessly ensnared as one form of tyranny is replaced with another. Orwell's chilling 'fairy story' is a timeless and devastating satire of idealism betrayed by power and corruption.

Dear Madam President
DEAR MADAM PRESIDENT is an empowering letter from former White House Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri to the first woman president, and by extension, to all women working to succeed in any field.
By using lessons learned during her experiences with Hillary Clinton, President Obama, and Elizabeth Edwards - to name a few - Palmieri through each chapter creates a forward-thinking framework of inspirational and practical advice for all women everywhere - from boardrooms to living rooms - who are determined to seize control of their lives, their workplaces, and their country. DEAR MADAM PRESIDENT will turn the results of the 2016 election into something incredibly empowering for future female leaders and independent thinkers everywhere.
We haven't wrapped our heads around what it should look like for a woman to be in the job of President. Our only models are men. This of course was seen during the Hillary Clinton campaign, and no one knows this better than Jennifer Palmieri. While wildly disappointed by the outcome of the election, Palmieri optimistically argues in the book that the Clinton candidacy and all she experienced on the campaign trail - confusion, admiration, hate, love, acceptance, rejection - can now open the country up to reimagining women in leadership roles. And that is what Palmieri takes on in this book - redefining expectations for women looking to lead and creating a blueprint for women candidates and leaders to follow.

Kis magyar történelem
Fél évezreddel a Római Birodalom bukása után, a már javarészt keresztény, ám civakodó részekre szakadt Európát három, harcias és mohó, pogány népség tépi-nyúzza. Észak-Afrikából a mohamedán mórok csapnak rá a déli partvidékeire. Skandinávia felől a vikingek csónakos hadai kerülgetik. A Kárpát-medencéből a kelet felől fölbukkant magyarok támadnak szinte körkörösen, ám fő célpontjuk a Nyugat. A mórok utóbb visszakényszerülnek Afrikába. A vikingek haza nem térő hányada beleolvad azokba a népekbe, amelyeket leigázott. A magyarok, lecsitulván, Közép-Európa keleti peremén megalapítják most ezeréves államukat. Ez a kis könyv az ő históriájuk vázlata, képben-szóban.

How to Argue With a Racist
*THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*
'Nobody deals with challenging subjects more interestingly and compellingly than Adam Rutherford, and this may be his best book yet. This is a seriously important work' BILL BRYSON
Race is real because we perceive it. Racism is real because we enact it. But the appeal to science to strengthen racist ideologies is on the rise - and increasingly part of the public discourse on politics, migration, education, sport and intelligence. Stereotypes and myths about race are expressed not just by overt racists, but also by well-intentioned people whose experience and cultural baggage steer them towards views that are not supported by the modern study of human genetics. Even some scientists are uncomfortable expressing opinions deriving from their research where it relates to race. Yet, if understood correctly, science and history can be powerful allies against racism, granting the clearest view of how people actually are, rather than how we judge them to be.
HOW TO ARGUE WITH A RACIST is a vital manifesto for a twenty-first century understanding of human evolution and variation, and a timely weapon against the misuse of science to justify bigotry.

Midnight in Chernobyl
Journalist Adam Higginbotham's definitive, years-in-the-making account of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster-and a powerful investigation into how propaganda, secrecy, and myth have obscured the true story of one of the twentieth century's greatest disasters.
Early in the morning of April 26, 1986, Reactor Number Four of the Chernobyl Atomic Energy Station exploded, triggering history's worst nuclear disaster. In the thirty years since then, Chernobyl has become lodged in the collective nightmares of the world: shorthand for the spectral horrors of radiation poisoning, for a dangerous technology slipping its leash, for ecological fragility, and for what can happen when a dishonest and careless state endangers its citizens and the entire world. But the real story of the accident, clouded from the beginning by secrecy, propaganda, and misinformation, has long remained in dispute.
Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews conducted over the course of more than ten years, as well as letters, unpublished memoirs, and documents from recently-declassified archives, Adam Higginbotham has written a harrowing and compelling narrative which brings the disaster to life through the eyes of the men and women who witnessed it firsthand. The result is a masterful nonfiction thriller, and the definitive account of an event that changed history: a story that is more complex, more human, and more terrifying than the Soviet myth.
Midnight in Chernobyl is an indelible portrait of one of the great disasters of the twentieth century, of human resilience and ingenuity, and the lessons learned when mankind seeks to bend the natural world to his will-lessons which, in the face of climate change and other threats, remain not just vital but necessary.

A közép-kelet európai faluközösség genezise
A falu- és a földközösség történetével a történetíráson túl a néprajz és a szociológia is foglalkozott. A kötet is e tudományágak integrált nézőpontjából vizsgálja ennek genezisét. A téma iránti érdeklődés a 19. és 20. század elején volt befolyással a szocialista tanokra. Ekkor az orosz területeken megfigyelhető "obscsinákat" ősi képződménynek tartották, amelyek a nyugati tudomány fókuszába is bekerültek, úgy kezelve ezeket, mint a letűnt "agrárkommunizmus" maradványai. Ezen a nyomon haladva a kor Európájában a történetírás művelői mindenütt ősközösségi faluképződményeket kerestek (pl. a germán Mark) a letűnt történeti időkben. A szélesebb körű kutatások azonban pont a várakozások ellenkezőjét bizonyították. Az új eredmények szerint a faluközösség kezdetei a kései római császárkor Gallia provinciájának villái környékén lelhetők fel, és ezt követően ennek kiteljesedése a Meroving és Karoling korszakok feudalizmusának idejére tehető. E falurendszer elterjedt a Rajna és Mosel folyamvidéken, továbbiakban Németalföldön, majd e területek demográfiai feltöltődése következtében a 12. századtól Közép-Kelet Európa területe felé nyomult a feudális "rendszerváltoztatással" karöltve. Ezt a kelet felé haladó migrációt - a települési folyamatok e fejezetét, epizódját - németül "Ostkolonizationnak" nevezi a történettudomány.
Ennek kibontakozását vizsgálja e kötet Magyarország, Lengyelország, majd ennek egykori keleti perifériáin, a mai orosz területeket is figyelembe véve. Fő tanulsága: a föld- és faluközösség a feudalizmus katonai, monetáris és adóztatási rendszerének egyértelmű következménye, szemben az ősközösségi, őskommunisztikus elméletek hipotéziseivel, melyek még nemrég is kísértettek.
Tagányi Zoltán 1940-ben született. Anyja dr. Tholt Judit, aki a Domanovszky Sándor által kezdeményezett és szerkesztett nagybirtokmonográfiák egyikének szerzője, amelyet Szekfű Gyula is véleményezett. A szerző egyetemi tanulmányait az ELTE-BTK néprajz-történelem-régészet szakán kezdte 1960-62 között, majd 1962-től 1968-ig népköztársasági ösztöndíjjal folytatta Lódz, Varsó és Poznan egyetemein, majd a poznani Adam Mickiewicz Egyetem történelem-filozófiai karán 1968-ban a néprajz magisztere címet nyerte el. 1968-1970 között a prof. Tálasi István ELTE-BTK Tárgyi Néprajzi Tanszékén tanított, majd 1970-től 2004-ig, nyugdíjazásig az MTA kötelékében dolgozott, előtt Wellmann Imre, majd Kulcsár Kálmán irányítása alatt. Kényszerszociologizálva 1983-1986 között város és településszociológiából kandidált, és így mint tudományos főmunkatárs az MTA Köztestületének tagja. A jelen kötetben a szerző azon kutatásait foglalja össze, melyek tematikája már az egyetem padjaiban is foglalkoztatta, és az iránta való érdeklődés egy életen át tartott.

She thinks it is Adam Baye standing just outside the camera's range, but when Adam goes missing, it soon becomes clear that something deep and sinister has infected their community...
