GOTT: Československý příběh - audiokniha
Říkal to písní. Písní, která dojímala i rozdělovala…
První nezávislé shrnutí umělecké kariéry Karla Gotta (1939–2019) vykročilo na nelehkou cestu, protože zpěvák si legendu o své osobě úzkostlivě aranžoval a dirigoval. Přední hudební publicista Pavel Klusák byl proto někdy nucen až investigativně stopovat pěvcovy první krůčky z dílen ČKD na pódia pražských tanečních lokálů, jeho výstřelky, nedokončená studia na konzervatoři a angažmá v divadle Semafor, jež bylo epicentrem kulturního vzdoru let šedesátých. Rozbor proměny nadějné hvězdy v kantilénového interpreta ideologicky nezávadného šlágru se detailně zabývá i Gottovým údajně veleúspěšným turné v Las Vegas a okolnostmi jeho „cvičné emigrace“ do SRN (1971), která tuto proměnu – za pragmatického dohledu strůjců jeho úspěchu – zásadně ovlivnila. V celoživotním úsilí o nekonfliktní, zdánlivě apolitický kult osobnosti si však dvaačtyřicetinásobný vítěz lidové ankety o Zlatého slavíka nepřipouštěl, že jeho postoje společnost také výrazně polarizují.

Knopfler Mark - Down The Road Wherever (Deluxe) CD
Album obsahuje 14 nových písní, které čerpají mimo jiné z dávných dní, kdy Mark trávil čas s bývalou kapelou Dire Straits v Deptfordu. Mark i nadále patří k umělcům, kteří mají oko básníka, jenž umožňuje vidět detaily, které se následně projikují do hlubokých melodických skladeb, které vypadají jako z oboru osobní psychogeografie.
Nahrávání desky se již tradičně účastnili špičkoví muzikanti, které Mark přesvědčil, ať do písně vloží vlastní otisk, který však nesmí narušit původní záměr a atmosféru skladby. Produkce se ujal sám Knopfler spolu s Guyem Fletcherem.
Mark Knopfler za svou kariéru vydal osm studiových sólových alb, spolupracoval s Chetem Atkinsem nebo Emmylou Harris, složil soundtrack pro Princeznu Nevěstu, Místního hrdinu a Altamiru a produkoval desky mimo jiné pro Boba Dylana a Randyho Newmana. Je držitelem Řádu britského impéria a prestižní ceny Ivor Novellos za celoživotní přínos hudbě.

The Meaning of Life
A thought-provoking and practical guide to one of the greatest questions we will ever face - what is the meaning of life?
To wonder too openly or intensely about the meaning of life can seem a peculiar, illfated and faintly ridiculous pastime. It can seem like a topic on which ordinary mortals cannot make much progress. In truth, it is for all of us to wonder about, define and work towards a more meaningful existence.
This book considers a range of options for where the meaning of life is to be found, including love, family, friendship, work, self-knowledge and nature. We learn why certain things feel meaningful while others don't, and consider how we might introduce more meaning into our activities

The Science of the Earth
Astonishing, studio-quality photographs of beautiful objects and specimens bring every corner of the planet, from core to atmosphere, to the printed page
Elegant design combined with beautiful images to explore and explain Earth's natural riches.
This is an informative, visually arresting introduction to planet Earth. The core of the book features large, detailed photographs of single objects, many of them small enough to be held in the hand, that each speak volumes about an aspect of Earth's environments and how they work. For example, bubbles of ancient air trapped inside an Antarctic ice core reveal how Earth's climate has changed over time. A piece of pumice thrown several miles into the air by a volcano helps to explain what happens when tectonic plates collide.
The book is structured around an imaginary journey that takes the reader from the inner core to Earth's surface (including both land and oceans) and up to the top of the atmosphere. Taking in environments such as grasslands, forests, and reefs, the coverage includes both living and inanimate realms. Feature spreads each throw a spotlight on an iconic place, such as the Amazon Rainforest or the Dead Sea, or a particular process, such as glacial erosion.
Many of the most fascinating parts of the natural world are beyond reach. This beautiful, informative book brings them up-close and within our grasp.

A laugh-out-loud young fiction series from bestselling author Joanna Nadin, perfect for fans of Horrid Henry.
Best friends Stanley and Manjit are part of Class 4B, which head teacher Mrs Bottomley-Blunt says is the WORST CLASS IN THE WORLD. She says school is not about footling or fiddle-faddling or FUN. It is about LEARNING and it is high time 4B tried harder to EXCEL at it.
But they didn't LITERALLY mean to let the class stick insects loose in the wilds of the playground. And they really didn't LITERALLY mean to make a massive mess trying to do modern art (which may or may not have involved a mummified cat being stolen). These things just happened, even though they had FOOLPROOF plans to get away with it all.
Highly illustrated and featuring two hilarious madcap adventures in one book, these stories are just right for children ready for their first chapter books.
Lacná kniha The Harley-Davidson Book. Refueled (-50%)
First thing that comes to mind when you hear the name Harley-Davidson? Freedom, speed, roaring engines and passion on two wheels. And no other motorcycle brand in the world has the nearly mystical reputation of a Harley-Davidson. For more than a hundred years, this American classic from Milwaukee has shaped the motorcycle world.
The fascination centers on the typical 45-degree, V2 engine. Over time, single-cylinder engines have come and gone from the Harley lineup, but the two-cylinder engine has been the defining style. Like a sculpture, it sits deep in the intricate tubular steel frame-an aesthetic revelation...and an auditory one as well. Once you've heard the gruff babbling of an Early Shovel, you're addicted for life! This is a book about the power and beauty of the engines and the elegance and strength of these machines from Lake Michigan. It is an homage to the flatheads, knuckleheads, panheads, ironheads, the shovels and Evolutions, and the modern-day fuel injectors. And at the same time it is a presentation of the water-cooled V2, the Street models, the electrified Live-Wire as well as the new Harley motorcycle genres: the naked bike "Bronx", the large enduro "Pan America" and medium-heavy e-bikes. The Harley-Davidson Book - Refueled is a visual journey through a tradition deeply rooted in the spirit of freedom of the USA. What would Easy Rider be without its iconic heroes, "Billy Bike" and "Captain America," the most famous motorcycles in the world? This free-wheeling attitude is conveyed in opulent, photo-rich stories and articles about the unique Harley-Davidson lifestyle. It's a road movie you can experience yourself, vibrating like an old knucklehead in its rigid frame.
This refueled edition of our bestselling Harley-Davidson book features 32 new pages and several updated chapters, honouring the Harley in all its facets. Ride through the history of the Milwaukee legend, get up close to its pristine design, and explore the Harley-Davidson lifestyle that sees riders on the beach, the ice, or in the mountains. A must-have book for all who agree with the grandson of company founder, Willie G. Davidson: "On the eighth day, God created Harley-Davidson.

Klavírní myšlení Ivana Klánského / The Piano Thinking of Ivan Klánský
Kniha Klavírní myšlení Ivana Klánského představuje čtenářům významnou osobnost současného pianistického umění, prof. Ivana Klánského. Pojednává o jeho tvůrčím a pedagogickém zrání, životní cestě od jeho prvních klavírních krůčků přes studia na konzervatoři a AMU v Praze až po jeho rozsáhlou pedagogickou praxi. Zachycuje jeho začátky v roli klavírního pedagoga a postupné utváření svébytné, osobité metodiky, kterou mimořádně úspěšně uplatňuje ve své pedagogické praxi. Tato metodika je čtenáři přiblížena prostřednictvím myšlenkového vnímání hudby Ivanem Klánským a je vyjádřením jeho estetických a etických postojů v oblasti interpretačního umění. První kapitoly jsou věnovány životní dráze a stěžejním pilířům jeho klavírní metodiky, jakými se jeví diagnostika výkonu interpreta, práce klavíristy s časem a zvukem, fyzicko-technické zákonitosti klavírní hry. Přibližují i nejoriginálnější součásti jeho pedagogicko-metodického systému, kterými se stala impulzová metoda a metodický princip rozčleňování interpretace na horizontálně nebo vertikálně hudebně zpracované plochy. Další kapitoly rozebírají názory a pohledy Ivana Klánského na interpretaci hudby jednotlivých hudebněhistorických období od 17. do 20. století.
The book The Piano Thinking of Ivan Klánský introduces readers to the life and work of an eminent proponent of contemporary piano-playing interpretation and pedagogy prof. Ivan Klánský. It deals with his creative and pedagogical development from his first musical accomplishments through studies at the Conservatoire and Academy of Performing Arts in Prague up to his extensive pedagogical practice. It also covers his early pedagogical experiences and the gradual formation of his specific piano-teaching method which he has been applying successfully throughout his entire career. This method is being explored through the prism of Klánskýs intellectual perception of music and represents an expression of his aesthetic and ethical attitudes in the area of interpretative art. The first chapters are devoted to his career and to the key points of the methodology of his piano lessons, including the diagnosis of the players potential for appropriate achievement, his or her implementation of sound and timing issues, and the physiological and practical rules of piano technique and practice. We also present the most innovative parts of his teaching method, i.e. the impulse method focused on the range of touch and tone production, also progression in horizontal and vertical playing. The closing parts explore Klánskýs views on the interpretation of music in performance throughout particular historical periods, from the 17th to the 20th centuries.
