Saxophone Syncopators - Good Morning Ragtime CD
CD slovenského saxofónového kvarteta Saxophone Syncopators obsahuje rozkošné veselé a hravé skladby štýlu RAGTIME, ktorý sa hrával na začiatku 20-teho storočia. Saxofón sa vtedy dostal do veľkej obľuby mnohých skladateľov prvých jazzových skladieb a v USA vzniklo množstvo menších čisto saxofónových ansámblov ako napr.: Six Brown Brothers, Columbia Saxophone Sextette, The Missouri Entertainers, Joe Thomas Saxotette, Hollis Saxophone Quintet a.i. Práve nahrávky týchto zoskupení z rokov 1910 až 1925 sú znovu oživené na tomto albume v podaní Saxophone Syncopators v aranžmánoch zakladateľa kvarteta, Ladislava Fančoviča.
A dosiahnutie čo najvernejšieho zvuku používajú Saxophone Syncopators originálne hudobné nástroje zn. Buescher z 30-tych rokov minulého storočia.

Good night, Džerzy
Polský spisovatel Janusz Głowacki vytváří barvitý psychologický a sociální obraz, v němž se scény ze života Jerzyho Kosińského střídají s příběhem vypravěče, který o něm píše fi lmový scénář. Hlavní postavou neobyčejného románu Janusze Głowackého je Jerzy Kosiński, slavný americký spisovatel s polskými kořeny, jehož mezinárodní věhlas korunoval obrovský skandál, pád z výsluní americké kulturní elity a nakonec sebevražda. Životní příběh muže hledajícího za každou cenu důvod žít je zasazen do New Yorku 80. let. Nečekaně se však proměňuje i v příběhy lidí, kteří se stali součástí života tohoto polsko-amerického spisovatele. Včetně samotného autora. Janusz Głowacki zavede čtenáře do bizarních erotických klubů, vypráví smutné životní osudy ruských a polských emigrantů, neustále se pohybuje na nejasné hranici mezi pravdou a mystifikací.
Economics of Good and Evil
Tomas Sedlacek has shaken the study of economics as few ever have. Named one of the "Young Guns" and one of the "five hot minds in economics" by the Yale Economic Review, he serves on the National Economic Council in Prague, where his provocative writing has achieved bestseller status. How has he done it? By arguing a simple, almost heretical proposition: economics is ultimately about good and evil. In The Economics of Good and Evil, Sedlacek radically rethinks his field, challenging our assumptions about the world. Economics is touted as a science, a value-free mathematical inquiry, he writes, but it's actually a cultural phenomenon, a product of our civilization. It began within philosophy-Adam Smith himself not only wrote The Wealth of Nations, but also The Theory of Moral Sentiments-and economics, as Sedlacek shows, is woven out of history, myth, religion, and ethics. "Even the most sophisticated mathematical model," Sedlacek writes, "is, de facto, a story, a parable, our effort to (rationally) grasp the world around us." Economics not only describes the world, but establishes normative standards, identifying ideal conditions. Science, he claims, is a system of beliefs to which we are committed. To grasp the beliefs underlying economics, he breaks out of the field's confines with a tour de force exploration of economic thinking, broadly defined, over the millennia. He ranges from the epic of Gilgamesh and the Old Testament to the emergence of Christianity, from Descartes and Adam Smith to the consumerism in Fight Club. Throughout, he asks searching meta-economic questions: What is the meaning and the point of economics? Can we do ethically all that we can do technically? Does it pay to be good? Placing the wisdom of philosophers and poets over strict mathematical models of human behavior, Sedlacek's groundbreaking work promises to change the way we calculate economic value.

Good Arguments
By a two-time debating world champion, a dazzling look at how arguing better can transform your life – and the world – for the better
**Previously published as The Art of Disagreeing Well**
Everyone debates, in some form, most days. Sometimes we do it to persuade; other times to learn, discover a truth, or simply to express something about ourselves. We argue to defend ourselves, our work, and our loved ones from external threat. We do it to get our way, or just to get ahead.
As a two-time debating world champion, Bo has made a career out of arguing. Over the past few years, however, he’s noticed how we’re not only arguing more and more, but getting worse at it – a fact proven by our polarised politics. By tracing his own journey from immigrant kid to world champion, as well as those of illustrious participants in the sport such as Malcolm X, Edmund Burke and Sally Rooney, Seo shows how the skills of debating – information gathering, truth finding, lucidity, organization, and persuasion – are often the cornerstone of successful careers and happy lives. Along the way, he provides the reader with an unforgettable toolkit to use debate as a means to improve their own.
This book is an everyperson’s guide to disagreeing well, so that the outcome of having had an argument is better than not having it at all. Taking readers on a thrilling intellectual adventure into the eccentric and brilliant subculture of competitive debate, Good Arguments proves that good-faith debate can enrich and improve our lives, friendships, democracies and in the process, our world.

Really Good, Actually
A hilarious and painfully relatable debut novel about one woman’s messy search for joy and meaning in the wake of an unexpected breakup, from comedian, essayist, and award-winning screenwriter Monica Heisey...
Maggie is fine. She’s doing really good, actually. Sure, she’s broke, her graduate thesis on something obscure is going nowhere, and her marriage only lasted 608 days, but at the ripe old age of twenty-nine, Maggie is determined to embrace her new life as a Surprisingly Young Divorcée™.
Now she has time to take up nine hobbies, eat hamburgers at 4 am, and “get back out there” sex-wise. With the support of her tough-loving academic advisor, Merris; her newly divorced friend, Amy; and her group chat (naturally), Maggie barrels through her first year of single life, intermittently dating, occasionally waking up on the floor and asking herself tough questions along the way.
Laugh-out-loud funny and filled with sharp observations, Really Good, Actually is a tender and bittersweet comedy that lays bare the uncertainties of modern love, friendship, and our search for that thing we like to call “happiness”. This is a remarkable debut from an unforgettable new voice in fiction.

Jake Geismar cut his teeth as a foreign correspondent in pre-war Berlin. When he returns in 1945 to cover the Potsdam conference he finds the city unrecognisable - streets have vanished beneath the rubble, familiar landmarks truncated by high explosive. But amongst the ruins Berliners survive, including some he knew and, miraculously, his lost love, Lena. But in the way she would not leave with him before the war, Lena won't join him now without finding her husband and Emil has disappeared from the safe care of the Americans who, turning a blind eye to his links with Hitler, want his expertise as a rocket designer for themselves. Trawling through the shambles of the city, through the illegal night clubs and the thriving black market, Jake discovers that the twilight war of intrigue between west and east has already begun and that he could quite easily be one of its first casualties. This is a novel of war, an action thriller, a tale of raw emotion and survival. Above all it is a tour de force of the triumph of humanity over man's depravity.
