The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of a Lost World
"THE ULTIMATE DINOSAUR BIOGRAPHY," hails Scientific American: A sweeping and revelatory new history of the age of dinosaurs, from one of our finest young scientists.
"This is scientific storytelling at its most visceral, striding with the beasts through their Triassic dawn, Jurassic dominance, and abrupt demise in the Cretaceous." - Nature
The dinosaurs. Sixty-six million years ago, the Earth's most fearsome creatures vanished. Today they remain one of our planet's great mysteries. Now The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs reveals their extraordinary, 200-million-year-long story as never before.
In this captivating narrative (enlivened with more than seventy original illustrations and photographs), Steve Brusatte, a young American paleontologist who has emerged as one of the foremost stars of the field-naming fifteen new species and leading groundbreaking scientific studies and fieldwork-masterfully tells the complete, surprising, and new history of the dinosaurs, drawing on cutting-edge science to dramatically bring to life their lost world and illuminate their enigmatic origins, spectacular flourishing, astonishing diversity, cataclysmic extinction, and startling living legacy. Captivating and revelatory, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs is a book for the ages.
Brusatte traces the evolution of dinosaurs from their inauspicious start as small shadow dwellers-themselves the beneficiaries of a mass extinction caused by volcanic eruptions at the beginning of the Triassic period-into the dominant array of species every wide-eyed child memorizes today, T. rex, Triceratops, Brontosaurus, and more. This gifted scientist and writer re-creates the dinosaurs' peak during the Jurassic and Cretaceous, when thousands of species thrived, and winged and feathered dinosaurs, the prehistoric ancestors of modern birds, emerged. The story continues to the end of the Cretaceous period, when a giant asteroid or comet struck the planet and nearly every dinosaur species (but not all) died out, in the most extraordinary extinction event in earth's history, one full of lessons for today as we confront a "sixth extinction."
Brusatte also recalls compelling stories from his globe-trotting expeditions during one of the most exciting eras in dinosaur research-which he calls "a new golden age of discovery"-and offers thrilling accounts of some of the remarkable findings he and his colleagues have made, including primitive human-sized tyrannosaurs; monstrous carnivores even larger than T. rex; and paradigm-shifting feathered raptors from China.
An electrifying scientific history that unearths the dinosaurs' epic saga, The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs will be a definitive and treasured account for decades to come.

When he summons a bright, beautiful swallow down to his hand to stop her from crying, Anna is entranced.

To Pixar and Beyond My Unlikely Journey with Steve Jobs to Make Entertainment History
One day in November 1994, Lawrence Levy received a phone call out of the blue from Steve Jobs, whom he'd never met, offering him a job running Pixar, a little-known company that had already lost Jobs $50 million. With Pixar's prospects looking bleak, it was with some trepidation that Levy accepted the position. After a few weeks he discovered that the situation was even worse than he'd imagined. Pixar's advertising division just about broke even, its graphics software had few customers, its short films didn't make any money and, on top of all that, Jobs was pushing to take the company public. Everything was riding on the studio's first feature film, codenamed Toy Story, and even then it would have to be one of the most successful animated features of all time... Full of wisdom on bringing business and creativity together, and recounting the touching story of Levy's enduring friendship with Jobs, To Pixar and Beyond is a fascinating insider's account of one of Hollywood's greatest success stories.

Last Days Of Night
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A thrilling novel based on actual events, about the nature of genius, the cost of ambition, and the battle to electrify America—from the Oscar-winning screenwriter of The Imitation Game and author of The Sherlockian NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER • SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING EDDIE REDMAYNE New York, 1888. Gas lamps still flicker in the city streets, but the miracle of electric light is in its infancy. The person who controls the means to turn night into day will make history—and a vast fortune. A young untested lawyer named Paul Cravath, fresh out of Columbia Law School, takes a case that seems impossible to win. Paul’s client, George Westinghouse, has been sued by Thomas Edison over a billion-dollar question: Who invented the light bulb and holds the right to power the country? The case affords Paul entry to the heady world of high society—the glittering parties in Gramercy Park mansions, and the more insidious dealings done behind closed doors. The task facing him is beyond daunting. Edison is a wily, dangerous opponent with vast resources at his disposal—private spies, newspapers in his pocket, and the backing of J. P. Morgan himself. Yet this unknown lawyer shares with his famous adversary a compulsion to win at all costs. How will he do it? In obsessive pursuit of victory, Paul crosses paths with Nikola Tesla, an eccentric, brilliant inventor who may hold the key to defeating Edison, and with Agnes Huntington, a beautiful opera singer who proves to be a flawless performer on stage and off. As Paul takes greater and greater risks, he’ll find that everyone in his path is playing their own game, and no one is quite who they seem. Praise for The Last Days of Night “A satisfying romp . . . Takes place against a backdrop rich with period detail . . . Works wonderfully as an entertainment . . . As it charges forward, the novel leaves no dot unconnected.”—Noah Hawley, The New York Times Book Review “This captivating historical novel illuminates a fascinating American moment.”—People “A fascinating portrait of American inventors . . . Moore crafts a compelling narrative out of [Paul] Cravath’s cunning legal maneuvers and [Nikola] Tesla’s world-changing tinkering, while a story line on opera singer Agnes Huntington has the mysterious glamour of The Great Gatsby. . . . Moore weaves a complex web. . . . He conjures Gilded Age New York City so vividly, it feels like only yesterday.”—Entertainment Weekly “A model of superior historical fiction . . . Graham Moore digs deep into long-forgotten facts to give us an exciting, sometimes astonishing story of two geniuses locked in a brutal battle to change the world. . . . [A] brilliant journey into the past.”—The Washington Post “Mesmerizing, clever, and absolutely crackling, The Last Days of Night is a triumph of imagination. Graham Moore has chosen Gilded Age New York as his playground, with outsized characters—Edison, Tesla, Westinghouse—as his players. The result is a beautifully researched, endlessly entertaining novel that will leave you buzzing.”—Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl “It’s part legal thriller, part tour of a magical time—the age of wonder—and once you’ve finished it, you’ll find it hard to return to the world of now.”—Erik Larson, author of The Devil in the White City

One Child
Tang Shuxiu and her husband are on an 800-mile train journey from Beijing to Shifang, where they believe their only child has perished in a recent earthquake. Three days after the event, Tang is too dehydrated to cry. Liu Ting becomes a national hero when he brings his mother to college, a celebration of filial piety in a nation that now legally compels adult children to visit their elderly parents. Tian Qingeng and his parents are deeply in debt. They have bought an apartment they hope will improve his eligibility in a nation that has 30 million bachelors, or 'bare branches'. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Mei Fong has spent eight years documenting the effects of the one-child policy across all of Chinese society. In this critically acclaimed account, she weaves together personal stories, history and politics to produce an extraordinary, evocative investigation into how the policy has changed China and why the repercussions will be felt across the world for decades to come.

Já s.r.o.
Spoluzakladatel KISS GENE SIMMONS je všestranný podnikatel a jedna z nejvíce uznávaných světových osobností.
V Já s.r.o. Simmons přináší nezbytné rady pro dosažení úspěchu. Mluví o tom jak vytvořit solidní obchodní plán, přináší mnoho „rad“ a tipů dostupných v naší digitální době, mluví o sebevzdělávání a o tom, že jste to vy, kdo vybuduje svůj podnik. Inspirováno klasickým spisem Umění války, přináší Já s.r.o. třináct principů úspěchu, které jsou vytvořeny na základě Simmonsových úspěchů a selhání. Od nalezení potřebné sebedůvěry k vykročení a obklopení se těmi správnými lidmi, přes uvědomění si, kdy přestat a kdy zdvojnásobit úsilí, vám tyto zásady mohou pomoci dosáhnout svobody a naplnit vaše sny.
KISS se nestali jednou z nejúspěšnějších kapel v historii náhodou. Dávno předtím, než vstoupil na pódium, měl už Gene Simmons jasný obchodní plán. Za posledních 40 let prodali KISS celosvětově více než milion CD, DVD a přes 5 000 druhů reklamních předmětů, komiksy počínaje, přes akční figurky a videohry, a rakvemi konče. Kapela má hvězdu na hollywoodském chodníku slávy a v roce 2014 byla uvedena do rokenrolové síně slávy. Aby toho nebylo málo, ke značce KISS přidal Simmons ještě dvě úspěšné televizní reality show, profesionální sportovní tým, řetězec restaurací a nahrávací společnost. Držitel ceny Forbes za životní zásluhy vybudoval všechno sám, bez osobního asistenta a s málem pomocníků.
Bez vodítka
Když začal před více než rokem Rupert Fawcett kreslit své "psí vtipy" na Facebook, netušil, že bude mít brzy miliony fanoušků po celém světě. Kniha s podtitulem Tajný život psů s nadsázkou zobrazuje nejrůznější zlomyslné kousky, kterými čtyřnozí miláčci všech ras, velikostí i charakterů zkoušejí naši trpělivost. Zároveň Fawcett líčí naschvály, kterým nás čtyřnozí přátelé vystavují a které jsou součástí promyšlené strategie a rafinovaného povyražení příslušníků psí říše. Výsledek tohoto mistrovského pozorování autor nakonec zpracoval do této "dojemně pravdivé" knihy.

The Unfair Advantage
Turn your barriers into a routemap for success.
This ground-breaking book exposes the myths behind startup success, illuminates the real forces at work and shows how they can be harnessed in your favour.
The world isn't a level playing field. Meritocracy is a myth. And if you look at those at the top, you realise that behind every success story is an Unfair Advantage. But that doesn't just mean your parents' wealth or who you know. An Unfair Advantage is any element that gives you an edge over your competition. And we all have one.
Drawing on over two decades of hands-on experience, including as the first Marketing Director of Just Eat (a startup now worth over GBP5 billion), the authors show how to identify your own unfair advantages and apply them to any project. Hard work and grit aren't enough, so they explore the importance of money, intelligence, insight, location, education, expertise, status and luck in the journey to success. From Snapchat to Spanx, Oprah to Elon Musk, unfair advantages have shaped the journeys of some of the most successful brands in the world. This book helps you too find the external circumstances and internal strengths to succeed in the world of business and beyond.

Putin and the Return of History
Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine has reshaped history. In the decades after the collapse of Soviet communism, the West convinced itself that liberal democracy would henceforth be the dominant, ultimately unique, system of governance. An outburst of Western triumphalism proclaimed a US-led unipolar world entitled to 'impose democracy' on countries that failed to recognise the new order. Politicians foretold the universalisation of Western values as the final, enduring form of human society, a hubris that shaped how the West would treat Russia for the next two decades. But history wasn't over. Subsequent events proved it is unwise to make predictions, especially about the future. In February 2022, Vladimir Putin took great delight in proving it.
Putin is a paradox. In the early years of his presidency, he appeared to commit himself to friendship with the West, suggesting that Russia could join the European Union or even NATO. He said he supported free-market democracy and civil rights. But the Putin of those years is unrecognisable today. The Putin of the 2020s is an autocratic nationalist, dedicated to repression at home and anti-Western militarism abroad. So, what happened? Was he lying when he proclaimed his support for freedom, democracy and friendship with the West? Or, was he sincere? Did he change his views at some stage between then and now? And if that is the case, what happened to change him?
Putin and the Return of History examines these questions in the context of Russia's thousand-year past, tracing the forces and the myths that have shaped Putin's politics of aggression: the enduring terror of encirclement by outsiders, the subjugation of the individual to the cause of the state, the collectivist values that allow the sacrifice of human lives in battle, the willingness to lie and deceive, the co-opting of religion and the belief in Great Russia's mission to change the world.
Gentleman v Moskvě
Vytáhněte paty z Metropolu a budete na místě zastřelen, zní doživotní rozsudek bolševického tribunálu nad hrabětem Alexandrem Iljičem Rostovem za autorství nebezpečné básně. Tak začíná strhující příběh klenoucí se od vzniku Sovětského svazu přes Velkou vlasteneckou válku až po nástup Chruščova k moci.
Nenapravitelný aristokrat Rostov, uhlazený vzdělanec s důvtipem na rozdávání, jenž v životě neodpracoval jediný den, je nucen opustit své apartmá moskevského hotelu Metropol a žít v podkrovním kamrlíku pro personál, zatímco venku se odehrávají nejbouřlivější události ruské historie. Avšak hrabě je rozeným optimistou; v souladu s filozofií svého kmotra velkovévody pokud se člověk nevypořádá s okolnostmi, okolnosti se vypořádají s ním nezahořkne a postaví se osudu čelem. Jeho prostřednictvím sledujeme nejen specifický život v luxusním hotelu, ležícím nedaleko Kremlu, ale také vliv historických zvratů na jeho obyvatele. Výsledkem je úžasné dobrodružství dalece přesahující zdi Metropolu.
Postava hraběte Rostova, který s moudrostí, humorem a elegancí vzdoruje každodenní absurditě, uchvátila čtenáře po celém světě. Román byl přeložen do více než dvaceti jazyků a jeho prodeje již překročily milion výtisků.

Faktura
Práce na částečný úvazek ve videopůjčovně, občasná setkání s hrstkou přátel a nenápadná každodenní rutina zakončená ve většině případů pojídáním pizzy a sledováním filmů v jednopokojovém bytě na stockholmském Södermalmu – tak vypadá život hlavního představitele a vypravěče až do okamžiku, kdy mu v poštovní schránce přistane záhadná faktura na astronomickou částku 5,7 milionů švédských korun. Právě taková je cena za veškeré jeho zážitky a štěstí, které ho kdy potkalo. Jak mohli tomuto nenáročnému filmovému fanouškovi, jenž se spokojí s málem a nemá žádné velké sny či plány, naúčtovat tolik? Nebo je to celé jen mystifikace?
Minimalistická, bizarní a nanejvýš originální Faktura z Karlssonovy sbírky Pravidla hry představuje klenot absurdní literatury zpochybňující to, co štěstím nazýváme a jak ho měříme. Tato novela, napsaná s okouzlujícím humorem a pozorně zachycující slabosti dnešní doby, je zároveň dojemným milostným příběhem, který změní způsob, jakým nahlížíme na svou existenci.
