Your Brain on Art : How the Arts Transform Us
We're on the verge of a cultural shift in which the arts can deliver potent, accessible and proven solutions for the well-being of everyone. Magsamen and Ross offer compelling research that shows how engaging in an art project - from painting and dancing to expressive writing, architecture and more - for as little as forty-five minutes reduces the stress hormone cortisol, no matter your skill level, and just one art experience per month can extend your life by ten years.
Your Brain on Art is an authoritative guide to how neuroaesthetics can help us transform traditional medicine, build healthier communities and mend an aching planet. The book weaves a tapestry of breakthrough research, insights from multidisciplinary pioneers and compelling stories from people who are using the arts to enhance their lives.

Living Planet
A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough's seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet.
Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet.
In The Living Planet, David Attenborough's searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies, from the lonely heights of the Himalayas to the wild creatures that have established themselves in the most recent of environments, the city. By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing - the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet.
In this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section. He also addresses the urgent issues facing our living planet: climate change, pollution and mass extinction of species.
Taste: My Life Through Food
From award-winning actor and food obsessive Stanley Tucci comes an intimate and charming memoir of life in and out of the kitchen.
Before Stanley Tucci became a household name with The Devil Wears Prada, The Hunger Games, and the perfect Negroni, he grew up in an Italian American family that spent every night around the table. He shared the magic of those meals with us in The Tucci Cookbook and The Tucci Table, and now he takes us beyond the recipes and into the stories behind them.
Taste is a reflection on the intersection of food and life, filled with anecdotes about growing up in Westchester, New York, preparing for and filming the foodie films Big Night and Julie & Julia, falling in love over dinner, and teaming up with his wife to create conversation-starting meals for their children. Each morsel of this gastronomic journey through good times and bad, five-star meals and burnt dishes, is as heartfelt and delicious as the last.
Written with Stanley's signature wry humour and nostalgia, Taste is a heartwarming read that will be irresistible for anyone who knows the power of a home-cooked meal.
Linie krve Krevní pouta díl třetí
Začalo to oslepující vidinou slunce, která pro Henryho Fitzroye byla tou nejstrašlivější z nočních můr…Upír s halucinacemi – dokonce i když s ním spíte – ještě pro soukromého detektiva není důvod nechat všechno být a spěchat na pomoc. Alespoň si to Vicki Nelsonová tehdy myslela. Toronto. Vicki pracuje na případu zločinu v oddělení egyptologie místního muzea. Záhadu dvojnásobné vraždy nikdo – jak se zdá – neumí a ani nechce objasnit. Vicki začínám mít podezření, že si tady někdo pohrává s lidskými myšlenkami. A teprve tehdy zjistí, že Henryho halucinace vůbec nejsou malicherné
Zapomenutý nepřítel Josef Josten
Obsáhlá historická studie analyzuje činnost exilové informační agentury Free Czechoslovakia Information Service (FCI), kterou založil a vedl v Londýně v letech 1948–1985 český promasarykovský emigrant Josef Josten. Postoje britského Foreign Office a parlamentu a opatření československého ministerstva zahraničí, ministerstva vnitra a ÚV KSČ tvoří pozadí aktivit FCI, zaměřených na boj proti komunismu, a to nejen v Československu a sovětském bloku, ale po celém světě. Jostenovo působení kulminovalo založením British Committee for Defence of the Unjustly Prosecuted, které se zasazovalo za Chartu 77 a VONS, ale i za svobodu dalších zemí, mj. také Tibetu.
The Three Golden Keys
In THE THREE GOLDEN KEYS Peter Sís recaptures the wonder of his own lost childhood in Prague and celebrates the city's wonderful cultural heritage, reborn after forty years of Communist rule. He wrote it for his young daughter, Madeleine, who is growing up in the New World, so that when she is old enough to understand it she will have a record of the strange and wonderful heritage that is her birthright. Utterly magical on every level, THE THREE GOLDEN KEYS, is destined to become a classic of children's literature.

Malé dějiny lingvistiky

Wuthering Heights (Wordsworth Classics)
Introduction and Notes by John S. Whitley, University of Sussex. Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.
King Lear, a Summary of the Play (EN)
King Lear is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare, depicting the gradual descent into madness of the title character, after he disposes of his kingdom giving bequests to two of his three daughters based on their flattery of him, bringing tragic consequences for all. The play is derived from the legend of Leir of Britain, a mythological pre-Roman Celtic king; after the English Restoration, it was often revised with a happy ending for audiences who disliked its dark and depressing tone, but since the 19th century Shakespeare's original version has been regarded as one of his supreme achievements.

Világvége és a keményre főtt csodaország
A talányos című regény cselekménye két szálon fut. Páratlan és páros fejezetei talán egymásról mit sem tudva és egymás elébe vágva fonódnak össze, hogy minden fordulat a meglepetés erejével hasson. A krimiszerű stílusban megírt, szenvtelen, ironikus hangvételű "keményre főtt csodaország" indul előnnyel.
