Lacná kniha Archeologický atlas ČR (-90%)
Archeologický atlas je pokusem o publikaci, jaká zájemci o českou archeologii stále schází. I v České republice sice existuje řada archeologických encyklopedií a průvodců; tato kniha se ale od nich liší. Jejím cílem není pouze sdělit čtenáři určitý soubor informací o archeologických nalezištích, nálezech a výzkumech, ale především naučit jej archeologické lokality vnímat, nalézt a pochopit logiku jejich výpovědi. K tomu směřují především nové podrobné mapy, údaje o poloze v zeměpisných souřadnicích a většinou nové, profesionálně zpracované terénní fotografie. Pro publikaci bylo vybráno 105 archeologických lokalit z území Čech. S výjimkou několika málo míst s významnými archeologickými výzkumy a muzei jde vždy o lokality, na kterých jsou archeologické památky vidět na povrchu, ať už v reliéfu terénu, nebo ruinách staveb. Předložený výběr zahrnuje většinu známých a opravdu významných v terénu viditelných archeologických lokalit na území Čech, nicméně celý soubor byl sestaven především tak, aby zachycoval lokality typické v širokém spektru jejich podob, funkcí a stáří. Archeologické památky jsou v tomto svazku chápány v dosud neobvyklé šíři, a to od jeskyň osídlených v paleolitu po vesnice vysídlené po 2. světové válce.

Atlas duše těla a ducha
Kniha Atlas duše, těla a ducha se snaží čtenáře seznámit s rozličným pojetím lidského těla, duše a ducha podle toho, jak je vidí několik odlišných kultur. Začínáme západním, ortodoxním pohledem na anatomii a fyziologii. Zde se věnujeme tělu, od kostry až po imunitní systém a s pomocí skvělých ilustrací jsou srozumitelně vysvětleny všechny jeho funkce.
Poté se podíváme na metody sledování a zlepšování tělesného a duševního zdraví, jako jsou osteopatie, akupunktura, iridologie, reflexologie a nakonec se seznámíme s holistickými teoriemi o spojení člověka s vesmírem...
Z těchto teoretických základů pak autor vychází při popisu nejrůznějších pohledů na tělo pocházejících z různých starobylých nauk včetně indického systému čaker, čínského systému meridiánů, stromu života kabaly nebo víry západoafrických šamanů.

The Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Order
The most sweeping account of how neoliberalism came to dominate American politics for nearly a half century before crashing against the forces of Trumpism on the right and a new progressivism on the left.
The epochal shift toward neoliberalism-a web of related policies that, broadly speaking, reduced the footprint of government in society and reassigned economic power to private market forces-that began in the United States and Great Britain in the late 1970s fundamentally changed the world. Today, the word "neoliberal" is often used to condemn a broad swath of policies, from prizing free market principles over people to advancing privatization programs in developing nations around the world.
To be sure, neoliberalism has contributed to a number of alarming trends, not least of which has been a massive growth in income inequality. Yet as the eminent historian Gary Gerstle argues in The Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Order, these indictments fail to reckon with the full contours of what neoliberalism was and why its worldview had such persuasive hold on both the right and the left for three decades. As he shows, the neoliberal order that emerged in America in the 1970s
fused ideas of deregulation with personal freedoms, open borders with cosmopolitanism, and globalization with the promise of increased prosperity for all. Along with tracing how this worldview emerged in America and grew to dominate the world, Gerstle explores the previously unrecognized extent to which its
triumph was facilitated by the collapse of the Soviet Union and its communist allies. He is also the first to chart the story of the neoliberal order's fall, originating in the failed reconstruction of Iraq and Great Recession of the Bush years and culminating in the rise of Trump and a reinvigorated Bernie Sanders-led American left in the 2010s.
An indispensable and sweeping re-interpretation of the last fifty years, this book illuminates how the ideology of neoliberalism became so infused in the daily life of an era, while probing what remains of that ideology and its political programs as America enters an uncertain future.

End Of The Game Taschen
Researched, photographed, and compiled over 20 years, Peter Beard's End of the Game tells the tale of the enterprisers, explorers, missionaries, and big-game hunters whose quests for adventure and "progress" were to change the face of Africa in the 2
0th century. This landmark volume is assembled from hundreds of historical photographs and writings, starting with the building of the Mombasa Railroad ("The Lunatic Line") and the opening-up of darkest Africa. The stories behind the heroic figures i
n Beard's workTheodore Roosevelt, Frederick Courtney Selous, Karen Blixen (Isak Dinesen), Denys Finch-Hatton (the romantic hero of Out of Africa), Philip Percival, J. A. Hunter, Ernest Hemingway, and J. H. Patterson (who became famous as the relentl
ess hunter of the "Man-Eating Lions of Tsavo")are all contextualized by Beard's own photographs of the enormous region. Shot in the 1960s and '70s in the Tsavo lowlands during the elephant-habitat crisis and then in Uganda parks, Beard's studies of
elephant and hippo population dynamics document the inevitable overpopulation and starvation of tens of thousands of elephants and rhinos.

The Marble Faun
The Marble Faun is Hawthorne's most unusual romance, and possibly one of the strangest major works of American fiction. Writing on the eve of the American Civil War, Hawthorne set his story in a fantastical Italy. The romance mixes elements of a fable, pastoral, gothic novel, and travel guide. The climax comes less than halfway through the story, and Hawthorne intentionally fails to answer many of the reader's questions about the characters and the plot.

The Circular Study
Excerpt:"Mr. Gryce was melancholy. He had attained that period in life when the spirits flag and enthusiasm needs a constant spur, and of late there had been a lack of special excitement, and he felt dull and superannuated. He was even contemplating resigning his position on the force and retiring to the little farm he had bought for himself in Westchester; and this in itself did not tend to cheerfulness, for he was one to whom action was a necessity and the exercise of his mental faculties more inspiring than any possible advantage which might accrue to him from their use."
