Charles III - New King. New Court. The Inside Story.
Acclaimed royal biographer Robert Hardman draws on unrivalled access to the Royal Family, friends of the King and Queen, key officials and courtiers plus unpublished royal papers to produce this brilliant account of a tumultuous period in British history. This is a book full of intriguing insider detail and the real stories behind the sadness, the dazzling pomp, the challenges and the triumphs as Charles III sets out to make his mark.
How would – or could – he fill the shoes of the record-breaking Elizabeth II? With fresh debates about the monarchy, political upheavals and a steady flow of damning headlines unleashed by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Charles could not afford to put a foot wrong. Hardman charts the transition from those emotionally-charged days following the death of the late Queen all through that make or break first year on the throne, including the Coronation – the joy, the nerves, the hidden meanings and the near-misses on the day.
This book also reveals how Charles III is determined to move ahead at speed, the vital role played by Queen Camilla, the King’s relationships with his sons and the rest of his family, his plans for reforming the monarchy and how he is taking his place on the world stage.
Charles III is a fascinating portrait of a hard-working, modern monarch, determined to remain true to himself and to his Queen, to make a difference, to weather the storms – and, what’s more, to enjoy it.

Daisy Jones and The Six
THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERA Daily Mirror best fiction pick of 2019A Daily Express best book of 2019'I LOVE it . . .
I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON
They were the new icons of rock and roll, fated to burn bright and not fade away. But on 12 July 1979, it all came crashing down. There was Daisy, rock and roll force of nature, brilliant songwriter and unapologetic drug addict, the half-feral child who rose to superstardom.
There was Camila, the frontman's wife, too strong-willed to let the band implode - and all too aware of the electric connection between her husband and Daisy. There was Karen, ice-cool keyboardist, a ferociously independent woman in a world that wasn't ready for her. And there were the men surrounding them: the feuding, egotistical Dunne brothers, the angry guitarist chafing on the sidelines, the drummer binge-drinking on his boat, the bassist trying to start a family amid a hedonistic world tour.
They were creative minds striking sparks from each other, ready to go up in flames. It's never just about the music...

KDO: Ačkoli kapela Hellhammer existovala pouhé dva roky (05/1982 – 05/1984) a natočila pouhé tři demo snímky a jedno EP, její postavení v historii tvrdého rocku má až kultovní status. Vzkříšení Hellhammer mají na svědomí Tom Gabriel Warrior a Martin Eric Ain ze skupiny Celtic Frost, která na troská Hellhammer tehdy vznikla. Svůj projekt nazvali podle nejznámější skladby Triumph Of Death.

Physical and personality traits of Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor and King of Bohemia
On the occasion of the 600th anniversary of the death of Charles IV in 1978, Professor Emanuel Vlček, MD, DSc conducted research of the skeletal remains of the Pater patriae, which brought a number of surprising findings, important to a whole range of scientific disciplines at Charles University, and cast light on significant events in Charles’ life as well as on the cause of his death. The research has presented this prominent ruler as a human being, an ordinary mortal, suffering from many injuries and chronic diseases with which he was coping with indefatigable will, keeping in mind his commitments to God and Kingdom of Bohemia. It may be that all the pain and suffering also influenced his spirituality and his efforts to find salvation by attempting to realize his concept of the supreme being (Imitatio Christi).
The results of the research by Professor Vlček have been repeatedly published, but until now we have had no representative publication in English. The forthcoming celebrations of the 700th anniversary of Charles’ birth offer an opportunity to fill this gap.

Póly planety - staré a nové (trilogie) / The Poles of the Planet - old and new (3x kniha)
Trilogii Póly planety: staré a nové začínáme s uvědoměním si, že na Zemi existuje mnoho pólů.
Vybavíme si nejdříve ty tři prominentní severní, jižní a himálajský dané nejen jejich historickýmvýznamem jako nejzazší hranice, ale také jejich polohou v oblastech jedinečných svojí vysokou zeměpisnou šířkou nebo nadmořskou výškou. Ať už se jednalo o honby za geografickými póly, závodyo dosažení nejvyššího vrcholu světa, nebo mapování a průzkum, tato místa vybízela ke spolupráci a tím sloužila jako důležité prostředky pro sbližování lidstva. A zatímco byly tyto cíle dosaženy a pomohlyv pokroku při vytváření mezinárodních fór, smluvních systémů a různých politik, mnoho problémů zůstává i další vycházejí najevo. A tak se vynořují nové póly na první pohled stejně nepřekonatelnéjako tyminulé, ale možná pro naši dlouhodobou budoucnost mnohem důležitější. Jde o cíle, předsevzetí a poslánípři řešení našich kolektivních problémů nyní v první řadě ekologické a sociální povahy. Věříme tedy,že kombinací přemýšlivého textu, vtahujícího čtenáře do příběhu záměrně vybraných obrázků, je možno přispět k našemu kolektivnímu probuzení a tím pomoci k dobývání našich nových pólů.
Antarktida - objevování souvislostí
Kniha nahlíží do Antarktidy, oblasti světa, která je pro většinu z nás jak mimo náš dohled, tak mimo našimysl. Antarktida je přesto místem plným nejen divů, ale i důkazů nedílných pro vědu, především pro studium globálního počasí. Naznačíme, proč musíme tento region brát v úvahu, abychom plně pochopilidůsledky měnícího se klimatu. Naším cílem je současně zdůraznit, že povinností mála těch, kteří dostá- vají možnost se do Antarktidy dostat, je nejen popsat, studovat a chránit, ale také se svými zjištěními dělit s veřejností. Autor se svojí kolekcí fotografií vykonává tuto odpovědnost.
Arktida - navrácení dluhu
Kniha se zabývá změnou v Arktidě, oblastí, jejíž ekosystém a i obyvatelé nesou na svých bedrech hlavní dopady našich zásahů z blízka i dále. Cílem tohoto svazku je vyzvat k návratu ekologického a sociálního dluhu, vytvořeného nejen prvními návštěvníky, ale také naší současnou, na uhlovodíku závislou společností. Vzhledem k významným dopadům globálního oteplování na arktické ekosystémy, stejně jako k významu tohoto regionu pro globální počasí, apelujeme na všeobecné uznání této odpovědnosti. Navrácení dluhu, které je možné více způsoby, se pak stává vědomou, kolektivní volbou prospěšnou pro naši kolektivní budoucnost. Fotografický příběh v této knize byl navržen tak, aby čtenáři tuto volbu usnadnil.
Himálaj - tušení mýtu
Kniha podává odlišný pohled na Himálaj. I když Himálaj, pro mnohé třetím pólem planety, je častozmiňován v debatách o životním prostředí, zde klademe důraz i na další faktory. Uznáváme, že cestovní ruch, politika, životní prostredí i ekonomika mají společně hluboký dopad na ekologii regionu. Vyzýváme čtenářky i čtenáře, aby zapřemýšleli o změně jako o nevyrovnané a vícerozměrné, pozitivní i negativní. Diskuze o těchto změnách vyžaduje zhodnocení historie i širší pohled na regionální vývoj a vždy musízačínat vhodnými dotazy. Fotografická mozaika regionu byla proto shromážděna a uspořádána tak, aby usnadnila kritickou reflexi a podnítila otázky.

Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt
Spanning a lifetime of love and loss, crossing borders and oceans, Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt, co-authored by her son Harry Whittaker, draws Lucinda Riley's Seven Sisters series to its stunning, unforgettable conclusion.
1928, Paris
A boy is found, moments from death, and taken in by a kindly family. Gentle, precocious, talented, he flourishes in his new home, and the family show him a life he hadn't dreamed possible. But he refuses to speak a word about who he really is.
As he grows into a young man, falling in love and taking classes at the prestigious Conservatoire de Paris, he can almost forget the terrors of his past, or the promise he has vowed to keep. But across Europe an evil is rising, and no-one's safety is certain. In his heart, he knows the time will come where he must flee once more.
2008, the Aegean
The seven sisters are gathered together for the first time, on board the Titan to say a final goodbye to the enigmatic father they loved so dearly.
To the surprise of everyone, it is the missing sister who Pa Salt has chosen to entrust with the clue to their pasts. But for every truth revealed, another question emerges. The sisters must confront the idea that their adored father was someone they barely knew. And even more shockingly: that these long-buried secrets may still have consequences for them today.

The Psychology of Money
Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people.
Money-investing, personal finance, and business decisions-is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.
In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.
