If Walls Could Speak
Over more than five decades, legendary architect Moshe Safdie has built some of the world's most influential and memorable structures - from the 1967 modular housing scheme in Montreal known as Habitat to the Marina Bay Sands development in Singapore. For Safdie, the way a space functions is fundamental; he is deeply committed to architecture as a social force for good, believing that any challenge, including extreme population density and environmental distress, can be addressed with solutions that enhance community and uplift the human spirit.
If Walls Could Speak takes readers behind the veil of an essential yet mysterious profession to explain through Safdie's own experiences how an architect thinks and works - from the spark of imagination through the design process, the model-making, the politics, the engineering, the materials. Relating memorable stories about what has inspired him - from childhoods in Israel and Montreal to the projects and personalities worldwide that have captured his imagination - Safdie reveals the complex interplay that underpins every project and his vision for the role architecture can and should play in society at large.
Illustrated throughout with drawings, sketches, photographs, and documents from his firm's voluminous archives, If Walls Could Speak is a book like no other, and will forever change the way you look at and appreciate any built structure.

Čo dokáže váš pes?
Naozaj psy cítia blížiace sa zemetrasenie? Rozoznajú nástup rakoviny ešte predtým, ako ju diagnostikujú lekári?
Psie zmysly v mnohých ohľadoch tie ľudské prevyšujú. Psy počujú zvuky z väčšej vzdialenosti a vo vyšších frekvenciách, majú citlivejšie nosy, lepšie periférne videnie a fúzmi zachytia aj tie najmenšie zmeny tlaku vzduchu. Neprekvapuje preto, že pes sa ponáhľa k dverám ešte predtým, než si všimnete, že niekto prichádza.
Kniha Čo dokáže váš pes? skúma fascinujúci svet poznávacích schopností psov. Opisuje päť základných zmyslov, predstavuje pohľad na svet tak, ako ho vníma pes, a venuje sa aj otázke, či pes má šiesty zmysel. Obsahuje praktické testy a aktivity, ktorými nielen zmeriate inteligenciu psa, ale dokonca ju budete môcť zvýšiť. Vďaka tejto knihe lepšie porozumiete svojmu psiemu miláčikovi a vaša komunikácia bude hodnotnejšia.

Last and First Men
Last and First Men: A Story of the Near and Far Future is a science fiction novel written in 1930 by the British author Olaf Stapledon. A work of unprecedented scale in the genre, it describes the history of humanity from the present onwards across two billion years and eighteen distinct human species, of which our own is the first and most primitive. Stapledon's conception of history is based on the Hegelian Dialectic, following a repetitive cycle with many varied civilizations rising from and descending back into savagery over millions of years, but it is also one of progress, as the later civilizations rise to far greater heights than the first. The book anticipates genetic engineering, and the idea of superminds composed of many telepathically-linked individuals.A controversial part of the book depicts humans, in the far-off future, escaping the dying Earth and settling on Venus—in the process totally exterminating its native inhabitants, a marine intelligent species. Stapledon's book has been interpreted by some as condoning such interplanetary genocide as a justified act if necessary for racial survival, though a number of Stapledon's partisans denied that such was his intention, arguing instead that Stapledon was merely showing that although mankind had advanced in a number of ways in the future, at bottom it still possessed the same capacity for savagery as it has always had.

Taking on Gravity
For fans of Adrian Newey, Guy Martin and Chris Hadfield, in Taking on Gravity inventor Richard Browning tells the inspiring story behind his iconic jet suit, and shares his creative principles for generating true innovation.
From Icarus to Iron Man, the dream of human flight has always inspired and challenged us. Now, with his pioneering jet suit, Richard Browning has redefined what is possible.
Richard Browning's story is one of groundbreaking innovation. Building an aviation business from his garage, he has invented a whole new form of personal flight - a fantasy previously reserved for the pages of science fiction. His iconic jet suit has captured the imaginations of millions around the world, triggered ongoing developments in technology and engineering, and inspired a new generation of creative minds to pursue their dreams.
In Taking on Gravity, Browning reveals the creative principles of his multimillion-pound company, Gravity Industries, and shows us how grass-roots innovation can disrupt established industries in exciting and unexpected ways. On this journey into the sky we'll experience what it's like to take flight, to test the limits of the human body, and to convert moonshot ideas into tangible results.
The Gravity story is an inspiring example of human creativity and our ceaseless desire to push the boundaries of what is possible. Where we go next is up to you.
Walt Disney's Disneyland
Walt Disney dreamed for decades about opening the ultimate entertainment venue, but it wasn't until the early 1950s that his handpicked team began to bring his vision to life. Together, artists, architects, and engineers transformed a dusty tract of orange groves about an hour south of Los Angeles into one of the world's most beloved destinations.
Today, there are Disney resorts from Paris to Shanghai, but the original Disneyland in Anaheim, California, which has been visited by more than 800 million people to-date, remains one of America's most popular attractions. From the day it opened on July 17, 1955, Disneyland brought history and fairy tales to life, the future into the present, and exciting cultures and galaxies unknown to our imaginations.
This intruiging visual history draws on Disney's vast historical collections, private archives, and the golden age of photojournalism to provide unique access to the concept, development, launch, and enjoyment of this sun-drenched oasis of fun and fantasy. Disneyland documents Walt's earliest inspirations and ideas, the park's extraordinary feats of design and engineering, and each of its immersive "lands" from Main Street, U.S.A., to Tomorrowland. It is a treasure trove of original Disney documentation and expertise, with award-winning writer Chris Nichols drawing on his extensive knowledge of both Disneyland and Southern California history to reveal the fascinating tale of "the happiest place on Earth."Copyright © 2024 Disney Enterprises, Inc.

Didn't See That Coming
A hilariously fresh and romantic send-up to You’ve Got Mail about a gamer girl with a secret identity and the online bestie she’s never met IRL – until she unwittingly transfers to his school...
Seventeen-year-old Kiki Siregar is a fabulous gamer girl with confidence to boot. She can’t help but be totally herself… except when she’s online.
Her secret? She plays anonymously as a guy to avoid harassment from other male players. Even her online best friend—a cinnamon roll of a teen boy who plays under the username Sourdawg—doesn’t know her true identity. Which is fine, because Kiki doesn’t know his real name either, and it’s not like they’re ever going to cross paths IRL.
Until she transfers to an elite private school for her senior year and discovers that Sourdawg goes there, too.
But who is he? How will he react when he finds out Kiki’s secret? And what happens when Kiki realizes she’s falling for her online BFF?

Bowie David - Toy 6LP
KDO: Jedna z největších osobnostní světové hudby, proslulý hudební chameleon a průkopník hned několika hudebních směrů. Za svůj život vydal tento britský umělec rovných dvacet pět alb, z nichž velká část se zařadila do zlatého fondu populární hudby a ovlivnila hned několik generací hudebníků z několika hudebních žánrů. Své poslední album Black Star David Bowie vydal 8. ledna 2016 v den svých šedesátých devátých narozenin a pouhé dva dny před svou smrtí.
CO: O desce Toy se hovoří jako o Bowieho ztraceném albu. Slavný muzikant ho natočil krátce po legendárním vystoupení v Glastonbury v roce 2000 a mínil ho vydal v následujících letech. Album natočil živě, aby zachoval energii a určitou míru spontánnosti. Znovu zaznamenal skladby z šedesátých let, například vůbec první singl Liza Jane původně vydaný pod hlavičkou David Jones with the King Bees. K oficiálnímu vydání však nedošlo, Bowie se kvůli desce dostal do sporu s tehdejší vydavatelskou firmou. Poprvé se tedy nahrávky dočkaly zveřejnění až nyní. K dispozici je 6xLP a 3xCD verze.

Porter Gregory - Nat King Cole & Me CD
Jeden z nejúspěšnějších jazzových umělců své generace, zpívající senzace a výherce Grammy Gregory Porter vydává 27. října nové album Nat King Cole & Me. Jedná se o hluboce osobní poctu legendárnímu jazzovému zpěvákovi Natu King Coleovi, který zažehnul Gregoryho lásku k hudbě, a jehož neobvyklým stylem tak nádherným k poslechu se prý nedá neinspirovat.
„Potěšení z Porterova zpěvu je nemožné odolat.” - Daily Telegraph
Vlajkový singl Smile a písně L-O-V-E a Nature Boy obsahují úryvky přímo z Coleových melodií a skladba When Love Was King je Colem inspirovaná aranže Gregoryho vlastní písně, která byla v originálním znění původně vydána na platinovém albu plném hitů Liquid Spirit. Deska je Gregoryho prvním počinem, který nahrával za doprovodu kompletního orchestru.
Vliv Nata King Colea na život a hudbu Gregoryho Portera je značný. Některé vzpomínky na něho sahají až do nejranějšího dětství a vrcholí vydáním aktuálního alba Nat King Cole & Me. „V pěti nebo šesti letech ve mně Natova hudba vyplnila prázdnotu. Můj otec v mém životě nebyl přítomný a nedával najevo jakýkoliv zájem o mou osobu či výchovu. Natova slova pro mě byla životními lekcemi, studnicí moudrosti a otcovských rad, které jsem tolik potřeboval,” přibližuje význam desky Gregory.
Gregory Porter publikum okouzlil bohatým soulovým hlasem. Za album Liquid Spirit a Take Me to The Alley získal Grammy, titul jednoho z největších a nejvýraznějších jmen jazzové scény a začal patřit mezi nejvyhledávanější zpěváky. Porter pravidelně vyprodává koncerty a je zván do prestižních televizních show, jako je například The Graham Norton Show nebo BBC Music Awards. Stal se adopotovaným pokladem Británie, několikrát zpíval pro samotnou královnu a vystupoval na největších hudebních festivalech, jako je Glastonbury a díky své schopnosti překračovat a spojovat žánry stvořil jeden z nejpopulárnějších tanečních songů Ibizy Liquid Spirit - Claptone Remix.

Great Astronomers: William Parsons (3rd Earl of Rosse)
William Parsons, the 3rd Earl of Rosse, (1800–1867) was an Anglo-Irish astronomer who made several large telescopes. His 72-inch telescope, the "Leviathan", built in 1845, was the world's largest telescope until the early 20th century.The 72-inch (1.8 m) telescope replaced a 36-inch (910 mm) telescope that he had built previously. He had to invent many of the techniques he used for constructing the Leviathan, both because its size was without precedent and because earlier telescope builders had guarded their secrets or had simply failed to publish their methods. Rosse's telescope was considered a marvelous astronomical and engineering achievement. Lord Rosse performed astronomical studies and discovered the spiral nature of some nebulas. He named the Crab Nebula. A main component of Rosse's nebular research was attempting to resolve the nebular hypothesis, which posited that planets and stars were formed by gravity acting on gaseous nebulae.
