Cities that Shaped the Ancient World
John Julius Norwich presents a sweeping tour of forty great cities that shaped the ancient world and its civilizations - and which in turn have shaped our own.
The cities of the ancient world built the foundations for modern urban life, their innovations in architecture and politics essential to cities as we know them today. But what was it like to live in Babylon, Carthage or Teotihuacan?
From the first cities in Mesopotamia to the spectacular urban monuments of the Maya in Central America, the cities explored here represent almost three millennia of human history. Not only do they illustrate the highest achievement of the cultures that built them, but they also help us understand the rise and fall of these ancient peoples. Eminent historians and archaeologists with first-hand knowledge of each site give voices to these silent ruins, bringing them to life as the teeming, state-of-the-art metropolises they once were.
The Art of Making Memories
The third book from the CEO of the Happiness Research Institute and internationally bestselling author of The Little Book of Hygge, Meik Wiking.
Why is it that a piece of music, a smell, a taste can take us back to something we had forgotten? How is it that we remember our first kiss in detail, but barely remember anything of a fortnight's holiday from five years ago? Memories are the cornerstones of our identity, shaping who we are, how we act, and how we feel. But how do we make and keep the memories that bring us lasting joy?
Happiness expert Meik Wiking has the answers. In The Art of Making Memories he brings together his extensive research drawn from the world's biggest study on happy memories (which involved 1000 people from 75 countries), conducted at the Happiness Research Institute, along with data and diaries, interviews, global surveys and studies, and real-life behavioural science and happiness experiments, to explain the nuances of nostalgia, the different ways we form memories around our experiences, and how we can become better at recalling them.
Written in Meik's warm and funny trademark style, filled with infographics, illustrations, and photographs, and featuring "Happy Memory Tips", The Art of Making Memoriesis a life-affirming read which show you it's easier than you think to make your life unforgettable.

A History of Western Architecture, Seventh Edition

In this highly acclaimed, classic reference work David Watkin traces the history of western architecture from the earliest times in Mesopotamia and Egypt to the late twentieth century. For this seventh edition, revising author Owen Hopkins provides a new introduction contextualizing Watkin's approach. The final chapter on the twenty-first century has been completely rewritten by Hopkins, who brings the story right up to date with the inclusion of such topics as re-use, digital cities and virtual architecture.

The Ancient World
From the outside, Ehrien Gordon is just a normal girl. If you took a closer look you’d know about Ehrien’s hallucinations, about the things only she sees, hears, and feels. If you were brave enough to get close, you would wish you hadn’t. Through a chance encounter and a misstep, Ehrien learns her hallucinations are real. And with that knowledge she is forced to accept that her past and all she has ever believed to be true are lies. Ehrien finds herself thrust into a war between two worlds, the world she calls her home and the world that is her home. Struggling to understand just how powerful she really is, Ehrien finds herself falling deeper and deeper into a world of shadows. One that will eat her alive if she fails to control the power teeming inside her. How far is she willing to go to save the worlds? To save everyone? Even if, in the end, she cannot save herself?

Art in Detail
Great paintings cannot be fully understood in a single encounter; there is always more to be derived from them. Art lovers may revisit and reconsider the masterpieces throughout their lives, but a deeper understanding can only be gained by analysing the painting in detail, be it the placement of the subject, the lighting, the style of brushstrokes or the themes.
Art in Detail examines 100 iconic paintings from the Western canon and spotlights the finer points a quick glance will almost certainly fail to reveal. These include subtle internal details, such as hidden symbols and artistic tricks employed by the painter to achieve particular effects. In addition, Susie Hodge writes intelligently about external influences on the artist - everything from the socioeconomic context in which he or she flourished, to smaller local difficulties, such as the level of air pollution at the time the painting was created. And she treats each of her subjects not only, to quote Matthew Arnold, 'as in itself it really is', but also as part of a tradition that links the oldest painting to the most recent, as artists pass a metaphorical baton down through the ages.

Raumplan a současná architektura / Raumplan and Contemporary Architecture
Kniha se tematicky zaměřuje na tvorbu Adolfa Loose v širších souvislostech, jež vedou až k současnému architektonickému dění. Jednotliví autoři a autorky mezinárodního kolektivu se soustředili jak na jeho ideje a tvorbu, tak na příklady přímých i méně zřejmých návazností na jeho dílo. Hlavním scelujícím prvkem je vazba k prostoru v architektuře, jenž se stal klíčovým bodem architektonického myšlení na konci 19. a na začátku 20. století. Kniha zahrnuje ukázky Loosovy tvorby, dále texty historiků architektury a architektů věnujících se Loosovu dílu dlouhodobě také teoreticky (Hermann Czech, Petr Domanický, Jana Laubová, Christopher Long, Dan Merta, Martina Mertová, Maria Szadkowska, Yoshio Sakurai, Filip Šenk, William Tozer) a praktikujících architektů, kteří s koncepty a idejemi architektonického prostoru pracují a dále je rozvíjejí (Alberto Campo Baeza, Sou Fujimoto, Momoyo Kaijima, Mauricio Pezo and Sofía von Ellrichshausen). Nová publikace, jejíž vznik inicioval spolek Architectura a vydal ji ve spolupráci se společností Akontext a Technickou univerzitou v Liberci, přímo navazuje na online výstavu konanou v omezené podobě v době lockdownu v Galerii Jaroslava Fragnera u příležitosti 150 let od narození Adolfa Loose (10. 12. 1870 v Brně – 23. 8. 1933 Kalksburg u Vídně). Grafiky se opět ujal sochař a grafik Jiří Příhoda.
The Art of War
The Art of War is a Chinese military treatise that was written during the 6th century BC by Sun Tzu. Composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare, it has long been praised as the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time.The Art of War is one of the oldest books on military strategy in the world. It is the first and one of the most successful works on strategy and has had a huge influence on Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, and beyond. Sun Tzu was the first to recognize the importance of positioning in strategy and that position is affected both by objective conditions in the physical environment and the subjective opinions of competitive actors in that environment. He taught that strategy was not planning in the sense of working through a to-do list, but rather that it requires quick and appropriate responses to changing conditions. Planning works in a controlled environment, but in a competitive environment,
