Lacná kniha Domus 1950s (-70%)
Founded in 1928 as a "living diary" by the great Milanese architect and designer Gio Ponti, domus has been hailed as the world's most influential architecture and design journal. With both style and rigor, it has offered consistent coverage of major themes and stylistic movements in product, structure, interior, and industrial design. In this fresh reprint of all 1950s issues, the magazine brings its visual and intellectual clarity to an era of post-war optimism. As memories of conflict receded, architecture and design sought new forms, materials, and applications, as well as international dialogue. domus captured the mood with features on Le Corbusier's design of the United Nations Building in New York; the Case Study Houses of Charles and Ray Eames; Richard Neutra in California and Oscar Nierneyer in Brazil. Other highlights include office machines by Olivetti, furniture by Ray and Charles Eames, ceramics and lights by Ettore Sottsass, and the Herman Miller Showroom by Alexander Girard in San Francisco.

The Status Game
What drives our political and moral beliefs? What shapes our bitterest conflicts and wildest dreams?
What makes you, you?
Across the world, from Papua New Guinea to Tokyo and Manhattan, humans compete for status.

But what makes status an all-consuming prize? And how can we wield our desire for it to improve our relationships, win social media battles and be the best in the workplace?
A breathtaking rethink of human psychology, The Status Game will change how you see others - and how you see yourself.

Prečo spíme
Spánok patrí k najdôležitejším, ale najmenej pochopeným aspektom nášho života, zdravia a dlhovekosti. Donedávna vedci nedokázali odpovedať na otázky prečo spíme, ako spánok pomáha nášmu telu a mozgu, prečo nás postihnú ničivé zdravotné následky, keď nespíme. Najmä v porovnaní s našimi ostatnými základnými životnými potrebami jesť, piť a rozmnožovať sa sme účel spánku dlhé roky nedokázali pochopiť. Prudký príval vedeckých objavov za ostatné dve desaťročia však do tejto oblasti vniesol nové svetlo. Teraz nám vynikajúci neurovedec a odborník na spánok Matthew Walker umožňuje porozumieť životnej dôležitosti spánku a snívania. Okrem mnohých iných funkcií, spánok posilňuje našu schopnosť učiť sa, zapamätávať si a robiť logické rozhodnutia. Usmerňuje naše emócie, dopĺňa imunitný systém, dolaďuje metabolizmus a reguluje náš apetít. Snívanie upokojuje bolestné spomienky a vytvára priestor virtuálnej reality, v ktorom mozog spája minulé poznanie so súčasným a podnecuje kreativitu. Walker odpovedá na dôležité otázky o spánku: Ako vplýva na spánok kofeín a alkohol? Čo sa skutočne deje počas REM spánku? Prečo sa náš spánok v priebehu života mení? Ako na nás vplývajú bežné lieky na spanie, môžu spôsobiť dlhodobé poškodenie? Vďaka zmapovaniu najnovších prelomových vedeckých objavov a zhrnutiu dekád výskumov a klinickej praxe Walker vysvetľuje, ako nám môže spánok pomôcť s učením, ako nám môže zlepšiť náladu a úroveň energie, regulovať hormóny, preventívne pôsobiť proti rakovine, Alzheimerovej chorobe a cukrovke, ako môže spomaliť prejavy starnutia, zvýšiť dlhovekosť, zlepšiť vzdelávanie a predĺžiť dĺžku života našich detí a podporiť našu efektivitu, úspešnosť a produktivitu. Prenikavá, fascinujúca, vyčerpávajúca a zrozumiteľná kniha Prečo spíme čitateľom úplne zmení chápanie a oceňovanie spánku a snov.
MATTHEW WALKER, PhD. je profesorom neurovied a psychológie na Kalifornskej univerzite v Berkeley, riaditeľom univerzitného Laboratória spánku a neurozobrazovania a bývalým profesorom psychiatrie na Harvardovej univerzite. Publikoval viac než sto vedeckých štúdií a vystúpil v televíznych reláciách 60 minutes, Nova, BBC News a v rozhlasovej relácii Science Friday stanice National Public Radio. Dielo Prečo spíme je jeho prvou knihou. Objasňuje, ako si môžeme podmaniť pretvárajúcu silu spánku a zmeniť tak svoj život k lepšiemu.
Väčšina z nás ani netuší, ako trávi tretinu svojho života. V tejto ľahko zrozumiteľnej a pútavej knihe Matt Walker približuje novú vednú disciplínu, ktorá odhaľuje túto odvekú záhadu. Kniha Prečo spíme je šibalským pôžitkom a nebudete sa od nej vedieť odtrhnúť, ani keď by ste už mali ísť spať. Daniel Gilbert, profesor psychológie na Harvardovej univerzite a autor diela Zakopnúť o šťastie (Stumling on Happiness)
V diele Prečo spíme Dr. Matt Walker úchvatne rozžiaril noc vysvetlením, ako môžeme byť vďaka spánku zdravší, múdrejší, produktívnejší a v bezpečí. Jasne a zreteľne poskytuje poznatky a postupy, ako prekonať život ohrozujúce riziká spojené s našou spoločnosťou, sužovanou spánkovou depriváciou. Potreba spánku je univerzálnou potrebou, preto dômyselné rady Dr. Walkera ocení každý čitateľ. Mark R. Rosekind, PhD., bývalý riaditeľ Amerického národného úradu pre bezpečnosť cestnej premávky, člen Národnej rady pre bezpečnosť dopravy USA a vedec NASA
Walker čerpá z dvadsiatich rokov výskumu spánku, ktoré dokazujú, že spánok rozdáva priaznivé účinky celému telu, psychické i fyzické, plným priehrštím... Je vedec, ale píše pre laikov, do zložitých pojmov vnáša svetlo vďaka ľahko pochopiteľným analógiám. Library Journal (recenzia s vysokým hodnotením)

Homo Sapiens Rediscovered
A world renowned expert reveals how our understanding of the evolution of our species has been transformed by momentous discoveries and technological advancements.
Who are we? How do scientists define Homo sapiens, and how does our species differ from the extinct hominins that came before us? In this accessible, lushly illustrated account palaeoarchaeologist Paul Pettitt shows how the latest scientific advances, especially in genetics, are revolutionizing our understanding of human evolution. Pettitt reveals the extraordinary story of how our ancestors adapted to unforgiving and relentlessly changing climates, leading to remarkable innovations in art, technology, and society that we are only now beginning to comprehend.
Drawing on twenty-five years of experience in the field, Pettitt takes readers from the caves and rock-shelters that provide evidence of our African origins to the far reaches of Eurasia, Australasia, and ultimately the Americas. Popular accounts of the evolution of Homo sapiens emphasize biomolecular research, notably genetics, but this volume also draws from the wealth of information from specific excavations and artifacts, including the author’s own investigations into the origins of art and how it evolved over its first 25,000 years.
Drawn from cutting edge research in this field, with a unique perspective from Pettitt’s own studies focusing on human behavior, this immersive and surprising book paints the clearest picture we have ever had of our own evolution.

The fourth swoon-worthy rom com from New York and Sunday Times bestselling TikTok sensation Emily Henry
Harriet and Wyn are the perfect couple - they go together like bread and butter, gin and tonic, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. Every year for the past decade, they have left behind their lives to drink far too much wine and soak up the sea air with their favourite people in the world. Except this year, they are lying through their teeth. Harriet and Wyn broke up six months ago. And they still haven't told anyone.
This is the last time they'll all be together here. The cottage is for sale, and since they can't bear to break their best friends' hearts, they'll fake it for one more week. But how can you pretend to be in love - and get away with it - in front of the people who know you best?
Lacná kniha Sacred Book Of The Werewolf (-70%)
A. Huli, the heroine of Victor Pelevin's latest book, is beautiful, slender and curiously foxlike. She lives in Moscow and works as a classy prostitute in the city's premier hotels. But when a client goes inexplicably and fatally berserk at the sight of her in his luxury suite, A. Huli has to leave in a hurry. She decides to explore new avenues and place an ad on the internet - and that's when the trouble really starts. Victor Pelevin's new work of fiction is both a supernatural love story and an outrageously funny satirical portrait of modern Russia. With all his characteristic humour and metaphysical ambition, Pelevin introduces us to an unforgettable cast of perverts, former KGB agents, oil tycoons and amorous werewolves.

Bittersweet
In this inspiring masterpiece, bestselling author Susan Cain shows the power of the "bittersweet" -- the outlook that values the experiences of loss and pain, which can lead to growth and beauty. Understanding bittersweetness can change the way we work, the way we create and the way we love.
Each chapter helps us navigate an issue that define our lives, from love to death and from authenticity to creativity. Using examples ranging from music and cinema to parenting and business, as well as her own life and the latest academic research, she shows how understanding bittersweetness will allow us, in a flawed world, to accept the loss of past identities; to fully embrace the loves we have; and to weather life's transitions.
Bittersweet reveals that vulnerability and even melancholy can be strengths, and that embracing our inevitable losses makes us more human and more whole. This is a book for those who have felt a piercing joy at the beauty of the world; who react intensely to art and nature; and in a culture that celebrates toughness, who yearn for a wiser and more meaningful world. For bittersweetness is the hidden source of our love stories, moonshots and masterpieces.
Malá kniha stoicizmu
Nadčasové poznanie, ako získať odolnosť. sebadôveru a pokoj
„Ako dlho budete čakať, než zo seba dostanete to najlepšie?“ (Epiktétos, filozof stoicizmu)
Kde nájsť radosť? Získať silu? Ako čeliť svojmu strachu a ťažkostiam? Ako sa vyrovnať so smrťou milovaného? A čo tie stále sa opakujúce depresívne myšlienky?
Nech už prechádzate akoukoľvek namáhavou životnou etapou, stoici vám poradia, ako sa efektívnejšie vyrovnať so všetkým, čo vám život prinesie a ako žiť podľa svojich najlepších predstáv. I napriek starobylosti tejto filozofie pôsobí jej múdrosť prekvapivo moderne a sviežo a jej hodnota pri hľadaní šťastného a zmysluplného života je nepopierateľná.
V knihe nájdete osvedčené spôsoby, ako vystúpiť z emocionálnej horskej dráhy, znížiť negatívne emócie a zostať pokojný. Ako žiť podľa súboru overených hodnôt a rozvíjať pozitívne vlastnosti, akými sú odvaha, trpezlivosť, sebadisciplína, vytrvalosť a duševná sila. Ale nájdete v nej aj praktické stratégie, ako zlepšiť svoje momentálne vedomie a lepšie zvládať seba a svoje konanie v tomto chaotickom svete. Pretože jadrom tejto praktickej filozofie je viesť šťastný život aj (a najmä) tvárou v tvár nepriazni osudu.

Agents Marketers
AGENTS MARKETERS: Listing agents are everywhere now buying for your business and time. Once you settle on a listing agent, it's a good thing to know how they are going to market your home for sale. You probably are thinking of it way different than it is. Yes, the listing agent's primary goal is to bring a buyer to the sale, but they also have many other ulterior motives in mind when listing a house. First of all, the listing agent will place your home or property for sale on the local MLS, even before the sign goes up in the yard. This information on the internet will include all the significant features and information about the house including square footage, lot size, number of bedroom and bathrooms, and the price. The report will also tell buyers agents how to contact you to show the home. Your listing agent should include all the unique features of your home and why your house is different from all the others. A good agent will post a comment to get other agents and buyers interested in your home.
