The Rise of Islamic State
The essential "on the ground" report on the fastest growing new threat in the Middle East
Born of the Iraqi and Syrian civil wars, the Islamic State astonished the world in 2014 by creating a powerful new force in the Middle East. By combining religious fanaticism and military prowess, the new self-declared caliphate poses a threat to the political status quo of the whole region.
In The Rise of Islamic State, Patrick Cockburn describes the conflicts behind a dramatic unraveling of US foreign policy. He shows how the West created the conditions for ISIS's explosive success by stoking the war in Syria. The West-the US and NATO in particular-underestimated the militants' potential until it was too late and failed to act against jihadi sponsors in Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan.
Eight Strokes of the Clock
These adventures were told to me in the old days by Arsene Lupin, as though they had happened to a friend of his, named Prince Rénine. As for me, considering the way in which they were conducted, the actions, the behaviour and the very character of the hero, I find it very difficult not to identify the two friends as one and the same person. Arsene Lupin is gifted with a powerful imagination and is quite capable of attributing to himself adventures which are not his at all and of disowning those which are really his. The reader will judge for himself.

Lacná kniha Judgement of Paris: The Revolutionary Decade That Gave the World Impressionism (-90%)
In 1863, the French painter Ernest Meissonier was one of the most famous artists in the world. The darling of the 'Salon' - that all important public art exhibition held biannually in Paris - he painted historical subjects in meticulous detail and sold his works for astronomical sums to collectors who included Napoleon III himself. Manet, on the other hand, was struggling in obscurity. Famous today as the father of Impressionism, when this books opens he was known only as the sloppy painter of a few much-derided canvases depicting absinthe-drinking beggars and bourgeois gentlemen in top hats. With his usual narrative brilliance and eye for telling detail, Ross King has taken the parallel careers of Meissonier and Manet and used them as a lens for their times. Beginning with the year that Manet exhibited his ground-breaking Dejeuner sur l'herbe and ending in 1874 with the first 'Impressionist' exhibition, King plunges us into Parisian life - on the streets and in the corridors of power - during a ten-year period full of social and political ferment. These were the years in which Napoleon III's autocratic and pleasure-seeking Second Empire fell from its heights into the ignominy of the Franco-Prussian war and the ensuing Paris Commune of 1871. But it was also a period in which a group of artists, with Manet in the vanguard began to challenge the establishment by refusing to paint classical or historical subjects and, instead, turning to the landscapes and ordinary people they saw around them. Benign as such paintings might seem today, they helped change the course of history. The struggle between Meissonier and Manet to get their paintings exhibited in pride of place at the Salon was not just about art, it was about how to see the world.

Far from the Madding Crowd
Far from the Madding Crowd was the first of Hardy's novels to apply the name of Wessex to the landscape of south-west England, and the first to gain him widespread popularity as a novelist. When the beautiful and spirited Bathsheba Everdene inherits her own farm, she attracts three very different suitors; the seemingly commonplace man-of-the-soil Gabriel Oak, the dashing young soldier Francis Troy, and the respectable, middle-aged Farmer Boldwood. Her choice, and the tragedy it provokes, lie at the centre of Hardy's ambivalent story.

Ako odhaliť lož
Traja bývalí dôstojníci CIA, ktorí patria k najvýznamnejším svetovým odborníkom na rozoznávanie prejavov klamania, predstavujú svoje osvedčené postupy odhaľovania lži.
Predstavte si, ako by sa zmenil váš život, keby ste dokázali rozoznať, či vám niekto klame alebo hovorí pravdu. Či už prijímate nového zamestnanca, chystáte finančnú investíciu, hovoríte so svojím dieťaťom o drogách, predkladáte svojej lepšej polovičke podozrenie na neveru, alebo máte rande s niekým novým, schopnosť odhaliť lož môže mať ďalekosiahle dôsledky, ktoré môžu dokonca úplne zmeniť váš život.
Philip Houston, Michael Floyd a Susan Carnicerová ako bývalí dôstojníci CIA patria medzi najlepších odborníkov na svete v oblasti rozpoznávania prejavov klamania. Kniha Ako odhaliť lož zachytáva úchvatný príbeh metodiky, ktorú Philip Houston vypracoval na odhaľovanie klamstva v oblasti boja proti terorizmu a vyšetrovania zločinov, a ukazuje, ako sa táto technika dá použiť v našom každodennom živote.
Autori nás pomocou úžasných anekdot zo svojej práce v spravodajskej službe učia, ako rozpoznať verbálne aj neverbálne príznaky klamania, ktoré prirodzene prejavujeme keď odpovedáme na otázky nepravdivo. Po prvý raz predstavujú verejnosti svoju metódu a doposiaľ tajné stránky umenia klásť otázky vedúce k odhaleniu pravdy.
Ako odhaliť lož je kniha, ktorá môže zmeniť život človeka. Možno ste nikdy predtým nečítali nič, čo by malo dramatickejší vplyv na vašu kariéru, vaše vzťahy alebo vašu budúcnosť.
