Electronic - Get The Message: The Best Of 2CD
KDO: V projektu Electronic se sešli dva významní britští hudebníci – zpěvák a kytarista Bernard Sumner z New Order a kytarista Johnny Marr z The Smiths. Na hudbě manchesterské skupiny se zčásti podíleli také Neil Tennant a Chris Lowe z Pet Shop Boys nebo Karl Bartos z Kraftwerk. Superskupina se zrodila v roce 1988, kdy frustrovaný Sumner hodlal natočit sólovou desku, ale během připrav pochopil, že ji nechce dělat sám. Oslovil Marra, se kterým už spolupracoval v minulosti. Debutový singl Getting Away With It proklouzl do americké Top 40 a Electronic následně předskakovali slavným Depeche Mode na jejich severoamerickém turné v roce 1990. Vydali tři studiová alba.
CO: Reedice. Sbírka nejdůležitějších momentů superskupiny, ve které v devadesátých letech působily ikony světové populární hudby, vyšla původně v roce 2006. Zájemci na desce najdou singly a jejich B strany i další nahrávky Electronic. K dispozici na 2CD a vůbec poprvé také na vinylu.

Queens Of The Stone Age - Queens Of The Stone Age CD
Queens of the Stone Age (QOTSA) je americká rocková skupina založená v roku 1996 v Seattli, Washington. Kapelu založil spevák a gitarista Josh Homme, ktorý bol jediným stálym členom počas viacerých zmien v zostave. Od roku 2013 zostavu tvoria Homme spolu s Troyom Van Leeuwenom (gitara, lap steel, klávesy, perkusie, sprievodný spev), Michael Shuman (basgitara, klávesy, sprievodné vokály), Dean Fertita (klávesy, gitara, perkusie, sprievodné vokály ) a Jon Theodore (bicie, perkusie). Kapela má tiež veľkú skupinu prispievateľov a spolupracovníkov. Queens of the Stone Age sú známi svojim bluesom, krautrockom a elektronikou ovplyvneným štýlom riffovo orientovanej a rytmickej tvrdej rockovej hudby, spojeným s Hommeho výrazným falzetovým vokálom a neortodoxnými gitarovými stupnicami.
Rozšírené vydanie rovnomenného albumu QOTSA je opäť dostupné na LP a CD. Táto „definitívna verzia“ albumu prichádza s originálnym obalom Loose-Groove a množstvom bonusových skladieb.

Banská Bystrica / Poézia svetla / The Poetry of Light
Za živa v Bystrici, po smrti v nebi.
Už po stáročia sa každé ráno prebúdza mesto do neopakovateľnej atmosféry. Prvé ranné slnečné lúče dopadajú na hrdo sa týčiace bystrické veže. Veže, ktoré dotvárajú kolorit Banskej Bystrice ako niekdajšieho starobylého baníckeho mesta. Mesta, ktoré žije svojou výnimočnosťou a dýcha históriou na každom rohu.
Zachovalé chrámy, veže, hradby a meštianske domy sú trvalým klenotom našich dejín. Príbehy z minulosti sú zaznamenané nielen v kamenných múroch budov. Cítiť ich pri prechádzkach tajomnými uličkami mesta, ktoré sa každý deň vynímajú v poézií svetla. Aj keď metropola stredného Slovenska prešla od svojho vzniku výraznými zmenami, svoje genius loci si zachovala dodnes.
Sugestívnym pohľadom na Banskú Bystricu, vyobrazenú na čiernobielych fotografiách, je snahou zachytiť memento dávnych čias cez hru svetla a tieňov až do dnešnej podoby. Aj keď stáročia poznačili vývoj a smerovanie osídlia pod Urpínom, dodnes je nasiaknuté svojou minulosťou.
Prevediem Vás nielen históriou, ale aj súčasnými náladami tohto jedinečného mesta v srdci Slovenska, ktoré si pre svoju krásu okamihu právom zaslúžilo označenie Perla Slovenska.

The Law of Innocence
Heading home after winning his latest case, defense attorney Mickey Haller - The Lincoln Lawyer - is pulled over by the police. They open the trunk of his car to find the body of a former client.
Haller knows the law inside out. He will be charged with murder. He will have to build his case from behind bars. And the trial will be the trial of his life.
Because Mickey Haller will defend himself in court.
With watertight evidence stacked against him, Haller will need every trick in the book to prove he was framed.
But a not-guilty verdict isn't enough. In order to truly walk free, Haller knows he must find the real killer - that is the law of innocence...
'Pick up this gripping book at your peril, especially if you have other things to do like working or sleeping.' Express
'The so-called Lincoln Lawyer . . . turns in another dazzling courtroom performance' New York Times Book Review"
The law of innocence is unwritten. It will not be found in a leather-bound code book. It will never be argued in a courtroom. In nature, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the law of innocence, for every man not guilty of a crime there is a man out there who is. And to prove true innocence the guilty man must be found and exposed to the world."

The Age of Innocence
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY LIONEL SHRIVER
Newland Archer and May Welland are the perfect couple. He is a wealthy young lawyer and she is a lovely and sweet-natured girl. All seems set for success until the arrival of May's unconventional cousin Ellen Olenska, who returns from Europe without her husband and proceeds to shake up polite New York society. To Newland, she is a breath of fresh air and a free spirit, but the bond that develops between them throws his values into confusion and threatens his relationship with May.
The Vintage Classics edition of The Age of Innocence is published to tie-in with the publication of the Vintage paperback of Hermione Lee's celebrated biography of Edith Wharton
The History of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Pictures
Based on period documents and photography, the book maps in detail the development of Czech non-university sciences from the 18th century when the Society of Unknown Scholars in the Austrian Lands was founded in Olomouc. The main attention is focused on the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and its most important precursors, whether the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, active in 1953–1992, or earlier institutions, such as the Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts (originally the Emperor Franz Joseph Czech Academy for Sciences, Literature and Arts), founded in 1890, or the Royal Bohemian Society of Learning, which existed already from the 18th century. Individual chapters are devoted also to Masaryk Academy of Labour and the main scientific institutions of the Germans living in the Czech lands – Gesellschaft zur Förderung Deutscher Wissenschaft, Kunst und Literatur in Böhmen (Society for the Support of German Sciences, Arts and Literature in Bohemia). Attention is, however, also devoted to our most important scientists with whose research results as well as the milieu in which they worked and work the reader is acquainted with through archival and contemporary sources. The patrons and sponsors who made it possible for Czech science to reach a global level are also not forgotten. The entire process of the development of Czech non-university science is places in the wider social context, which influenced the development of the scientific institutions and the position of scientists in them.

The History of Philosophy
'A cerebrally enjoyable survey, written with great clarity and touches of wit... The non-western section throws up some fascinating revelations'
Sunday Times
The story of philosophy is an epic tale: an exploration of the ideas, views and teachings of some of the most creative minds known to humanity. But there has been no comprehensive and entertaining, single-volume history of this great intellectual journey since 1945.
With his characteristic clarity and elegance A. C. Grayling takes the reader from the world-views and moralities before the age of the Buddha, Confucius and Socrates, through Christianity's dominance of the European mind to the Renaissance and Enlightenment, and on to Mill, Nietzsche, Sartre, and philosophy today. And, since the story of philosophy is incomplete without mention of the great philosophical traditions of India, China and the Persian-Arabic world, he gives a comparative survey of them too.
Intelligible for students and eye-opening for philosophy readers, he covers epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, aesthetics, logic, the philosophy of mind, the philosophy of language, political philosophy and the history of debates in these areas of enquiry, through the ideas of the celebrated philosophers as well as less well-known influential thinkers. He also asks what we have learnt from this body of thought, and what progress is still to be made.
The first authoritative and accessible single-volume history of philosophy for decades, remarkable for its range and clarity, this is a landmark work.
