Lacná kniha O zmysle života (-70%)
Múdrosť, toto slovo sa najčastejšie spája s vekom a veľmi často sa zamieňa so slovom inteligencia. Ak by sme chceli dôjsť k určitému zovšeobecneniu, potom môžeme povedať, že inteligencia veľmi úzko súvisí s vekom a poznaním, či už individuálnym alebo celospoločenským a to vyúsťuje do múdrosti človeka, či ľudskej múdrosti. I. Ruisel 1999 zdôrazňuje, že ľudská inteligencia je pozoruhodný fenomén a umožňuje rutinné vykonávanie veľkého počtu zmysluplných aktivít, a práve ten veľký počet a zmysluplnosť sa nedajú dosiahnúť za krátky čas a bez využívania rozumu. Vo svojich úvahách parafrázujúc Ananieva pridáva aj iný fenomén a to, že inteligencia je zároveň aj večným problémom ľudstva, či už s dôsledkami našich nesprávnych hodnotení a rozhodnutí (napr. Černobyl) alebo pokusmi o zjednodušenú interpretáciu inteligencie. Inteligencia vždy bude pôsobiť nezávisle, bez šablón, schém a vopred stanovených kritérii a to platí aj pre jej výsledok, ktorým je múdrosť. Je to dané kognitívnou podstatou človeka, o ktorom už starí Gréci vedeli, že sa riadi svojim rozumom. Nezabúdajúc že pre sokratikov bola múdrosť - sofia hlavnou cnosťou ... Avšak je pochopiteľné, že inteligencia pôsobí v celostnom kontexte ľudskej existencie, individuálnej i ľudskej skúsenosti. Je to schopnosť podmieňujúca efektívnosť človeka v každodenných životných situáciách, zvlášť v tých náročných. O to významnejšie sa nám problematika múdrosti, inteligencie spája so seniorom, ktorý je dennodenne postavený do náročných životných situácii, ktoré od neho vyžadujú stupeň inteligentných rozhodnutí. Ak ich nenachádza, častokrát je sklamaný, nešťastný a stráca zmysel života. Reflexia zmyslu života seniora je predmetom úvah autorov v spektre odborného pohľadu, ale je tu cítiť aj vlastnú zaineresovanosť, pretože seniori sú neomysliteľnou súčasťou nášho života, sú to naši rodičia, starí rodičia, susedia, učitelia, ale aj študenti... Senior, zmysel života, jeho každodenné napĺňanie a hľadanie toho autentického života k zmyslu rezonuje v nás už niekoľko rokov aj s výskumami, ktoré boli doteraz realizované. Toto vydanie monografie kolektívu autorov je rozšíreným vydaním publikácie Múdrosť veku - vek múdrosti 2OO9 a pokusom odpovedať na otázkyhľadania zmyslu života adresnejšie a komplexnejšie aj v kontexte multidisciplinárnosti. Ponúkajúc otvorený dialóg odborníkov, ktorí hľadajú, analyzujú, odpovedajú na túto základnú otázku z pohľadu filozofie, etiky, teológie, sociálnej práce, sociálnej pedagogiky, literárnej vedy, andragogiky a psychológie. Domievajúc sa, že každý si v nej nájde svoje vlastné odpovede na tak závažné otázky povedané slovami V.E. Frankla, že "zmysluplným sa život stane, keď v ňom ide o niečo, čo má zmysel, čo človeka prekračuje, ani nie ta, čo do dĺžky, ale skôr čo do výšky a hĺbky".

Pleasures of Summer
The Pleasures of Summer is a steamy erotic story of romantic obsession and explosive sexual chemistry for fans of Fifty Shades of Grey, The Pleasures of Winter and Sylvia Day's stories. Summer O'Sullivan is rich, beautiful and in mortal danger. Her father has made powerful enemies who are targeting his precious daughter. Until the threat passes, Summer needs a bodyguard - someone to protect her and, she expects, to treat her with the reverence she's used to. Into Summer's gilded cage comes former ranger, Flynn Grant. As far as Flynn is concerned, this is the assignment from hell, minding the spoilt daughter of a multi-millionaire. Summer and Flynn are poised to hate each other on sight. Even his devastating looks do not make up for how Flynn's rules cramp Summer's style. Unsurprisingly, the sparks fly between them. But when Summer breaks the rules one time too often, Flynn teaches her a lesson that leaves them shattered - and bound together in a way that astonishes them both. In their remote hideout, the two start a battle over who is the tamer, and who is the tamed. It's a duel that stretches their minds and bodies beyond every limit. And in time their hearts begin to surrender too. But when the dark forces that have been stalking Summer finally track them down, the battle is no longer a game, but a matter of life and death ...

The Golden Age of Travel
Global travel can be a wearying business: mass tourism, overcrowded planes, chaotic airports, heightened security, cookie-cutter hotel chains, well-worn tourist trails. Finding even a sliver of adventure can sometimes feel impossible. But take heart: for all of us with an unfulfilled spirit of wanderlust, The Golden Age of Travel evokes an era when traveling the world was a thrilling new possibility for those with the resources, time, imagination, and daring.
This richly illustrated volume charts the travel heyday of 1869 to 1939. Bedecked with ephemera and precious turn-of-the-century photochroms, it follows six classic tours favored by Western adventurers in the prewar era, including such famous traveler-writers as Charles Dickens, Jules Verne, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Mark Twain, and Goethe. From the Grand Tour of Europe, a traditional rite-of-passage for young English aristocrats, to the Far East, barely touched by Western influence, to the famous Trans-Siberian Railway, we follow each journey through its itinerant stops and various modes of transport: trains, boats, cars, planes, horses, donkeys, and camels.
With pages brimming with archival travel posters, guides, tickets, leaflets, brochures, menus, and luggage stickers, the book evokes all the romance, elegance, not to mention the sheer sense of novelty, that enthralled these golden-age passengers. Through decadent new cities, or wild, rugged terrains, this is your passport to a long-lost epoch of adventure and wide-eyed wonder at the world.

Carousel of Desire
Celebrated short-story writer, Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt's (The Most Beautiful Book in the World) first full-length novel to appear in English is a literary tour de force, a magnificent cathedral of contemporary eroticism. The Carousel of Desire is a sexual and romantic saga told with a master storyteller's feel for character and plot and a philosopher's abiding preoccupation with what makes life truly worthwhile. With tenderness and infectious delight, Schmitt tells an exuberant tale about class and community and about the vastness of human experience. Schmitt's love of coincidence and serendipity is surpassed only by his affection for his flawed, all-too-human characters: Zachary Bidermann, the powerful European Union commissioner; Faustina, the fashionable book publicist; François-Maxime de Couvigne, the happily married banker with more than a few secrets; Marcelle, enamored with a handsome illegal immigrant; Miss Beauvert, who makes love with her parrot, Copernicus. These and many more unforgettable characters animate this story of simmering desire and the antics of the mischievous and playful god, Eros. Schmitt's inclusive, affirming vision of human sexuality is refreshingly free of moral judgement, yet enriched by an understanding of the complex ethics of human relationships and the redemptive power of love.

Shaping the Future of the Fourth Industrial Revolution
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is changing everything - from the way we relate to each other, to the work we do, the way our economies work, and what it means to be human. We cannot let the brave new world that technology is currently creating simply emerge. All of us need to help shape the future we want to live in.
But what do we need to know and do to achieve this? In Shaping the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Klaus Schwab explores how people from all backgrounds and sectors can influence the way that technology transforms our world. Drawing on contributions by more than 200 of the world's leading technology, economic and sociological experts to present a practical guide for citizens, business leaders, social influencers and policy-makers this book outlines the most important dynamics of the technology revolution, highlights important stakeholders that are often overlooked in our discussion of the latest scientific breakthroughs, and explores 12 different technology areas central to the future of humanity. Emerging technologies are not predetermined forces out of our control, nor are they simple tools with known impacts and consequences.
The exciting capabilities provided by artificial intelligence, distributed ledger systems and cryptocurrencies, advanced materials and biotechnologies are already transforming society. The actions we take today - and those we don't - will quickly become embedded in ever-more powerful technologies that surround us and will, very soon, become an integral part of us. By connecting the dots across a range of often-misunderstood technologies, and by exploring the practical steps that individuals, businesses and governments can take, Shaping the Fourth Industrial Revolution helps equip readers to shape a truly desirable future at a time of great uncertainty and change.
Tyrant: Destroyer of Cities
The death of Alexander the Great was the signal to begin the greatest war in human history - a war that swept like a firestorm from one end of the known world to the other, as his former generals fought like jackals to make his vast empire their own. By 305 BC, the most powerful players in this deadly game faced each other across the Mediterranean: Ptolemy, the master of Egypt, and Antigonus One-Eye, master of Asia. And between them, the island of Rhodes, a strategic fortress city that neither could afford to cede to the enemy. But trapped in the city was one man with the courage and determination to save it from destruction. A man who, surrounded by his closest friends and the woman he loved, simply could not afford to fail. A man called Satyrus.

Poison of Love
"Az ember hajlamos mindent megtenni azért, hogy megvédje, akit szeret. Hadd meséljek el egy történetet arról, hogyan tettem tönkre imádott énekesem és egy komplett rockbanda karrierjét. Az univerzum rendjének felborításáról már nem is beszélve." Natalie Bat, azízig-vérig rocker kamaszlány bármit megtenne azért, hogy találkozhasson kedvenc rockbandája, a Poison of Love imádott énekesével, Adrian Arronnal. A bármit pedig igen tág fogalom, kiváltképp, ha az ember édesapja egy időgépen dolgozik egy kétes hátterű cégnél. Így történhet, hogy Nat egy osztályba kerül rajongása tárgyával, a leendő rocksztárral. Adrian azonban tinédzserként közel sem olyan, amilyennek egy szerelmes rajongó a hírhedt frontembert képzeli. 1999-ben még nyoma sincs letölthető mobilalkalmazásoknak, a slágerlistákat popbandák uralják, a képregényhősökért rajongók egytől egyig csodabogárnak számítanak. Valaki pedig mindvégig a fiatalokon tartja a szemét, mert pontosan tudja, mihez vezethetnek a meggondolatlan, tizenéves Natalietettei...
