Of Curses and Kisses
For Princess Jaya Rao, nothing is more important than family. That's why when she finds out she'll be attending the same elite boarding school as Grey Emerson, a member of the rival royal family behind a humiliating scandal involving her little sister, she schemes to get revenge on the young nobleman in order to even the score between their families. The plan? Make him fall in love with her and then break his heart the way his family has broken hers.
Grey Emerson doesn't connect with people easily. Due to a curse placed on his family by the Raos that his superstitious father unquestioningly, annoyingly believes in, Grey grew up internalising that he was doomed from the day he was born. Sequestered away at St. Rosetta's Academy, he's lived a quiet existence in relative solitude. That is, until Jaya Rao bursts into his life. Jaya is exuberant and elegant and unlike anyone Grey has ever met before, but he can't help feeling that she's hiding something behind her beautiful smile and charmingly awkward attempts at flirting. Despite his better instincts, though, he starts to fall for her.
Jaya's plan isn't totally going according to plan. For one, Grey is aggravatingly handsome. And for two, she's realising there's maybe more to him than his name and his family imply.
The stars are crossed for Jaya and Grey. But can they still find their fairy-tale ending?

Confessions of a Bookseller
A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
'Irreverently funny ... kept me giggling all week.' Scotland on Sunday
"Do you have a list of your books, or do I just have to stare at them?"
Shaun Bythell is the owner of The Bookshop in Wigtown, Scotland. With more than a mile of shelving, real log fires in the shop and the sea lapping nearby, the shop should be an idyll for bookworms.
Unfortunately, Shaun also has to contend with bizarre requests from people who don't understand what a shop is, home invasions during the Wigtown Book Festival and Granny, his neurotic Italian assistant who likes digging for river mud to make poultices.
The Diary of a Bookseller (soon to be a major TV series) introduced us to the joys and frustrations of life lived in books. Sardonic and sympathetic in equal measure, Confessions of a Bookseller will reunite readers with the characters they've come to know and love.

The No. 1 Most Influential Business Book of the Twentieth Century
"[Thirty] years after it first appeared, the wisdom of The 7 Habits is more relevant than ever. On an individual level people are burning out, and on a collective level we are burning up the planet.

The Science of Storytelling
SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
‘If you want to write a novel or a script, read this book’ Sunday Times
‘The best book on the craft of storytelling I’ve ever read’ Matt Haig
‘Rarely has a book engrossed me more, and forced me to question everything I’ve ever read, seen or written. A masterpiece’ Adam Rutherford
Who would we be without stories?
Stories mould who we are, from our character to our cultural identity. They drive us to act out our dreams and ambitions, and shape our politics and beliefs. We use them to construct our relationships, to keep order in our law courts, to interpret events in our newspapers and social media. Storytelling is an essential part of what makes us human.
There have been many attempts to understand what makes a good story – from Joseph Campbell’s well-worn theories about myth and archetype to recent attempts to crack the ‘Bestseller Code’. But few have used a scientific approach. This is curious, for if we are to truly understand storytelling in its grandest sense, we must first come to understand the ultimate storyteller – the human brain.
In this scalpel-sharp, thought-provoking book, Will Storr demonstrates how master storytellers manipulate and compel us, leading us on a journey from the Hebrew scriptures to Mr Men, from Booker Prize-winning literature to box set TV. Applying dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to the foundations of our myths and archetypes, he shows how we can use these tools to tell better stories – and make sense of our chaotic modern world.

Discourses on Livy (Oxford World´s Classics)
Discourses on Livy, written in 1531, is as essential to an understanding of Machiavelli as his famous treatise, The Prince. Equally controversial, it reveals his fundamental preference for a republican state. Comparing the practice of the ancient Romans with that of his contemporaries provided Machiavelli with a consistent point of view in all his works. Machiavelli's close analysis of Livy's history of Rome led him to advance his most original and outspoken view of politics--the belief that a healthy political body was characterized by social friction and conflict rather than by rigid stability. His discussion of conspiracies in Discourses on Livy is one of the most sophisticated treatments of archetypal political upheaval ever written. In an age of increasing political absolutism, Machiavelli's theories became a dangerous ideology. This new translation is richly annotated, providing the contemporary reader with sufficient historical, linguistic, and political information to understand and interpret the revolutionary affirmations Machiavelli made, based on the historical evidence he found in Livy.

Jožo Ráž Můj příběh
Silné motorky, rychlá auta, pilotování ruského migu, akrobacie s mistrem světa, irská whisky, kubánské doutníky, image drsného a arogantního rockera v černé kůži provokujícího svými kontroverzními názory, charisma s nezaměnitelným, ostře řezaným hlasem a zjizvenou tváří šelmy.
To je JOŽO RÁŽ, lídr Elánu, nejúspěšnější a nejslavnější československé rockové kapely v historii naší pop-music, která je dnes legendou existující už neskutečných 45 let. Legendou, která stále vyprodává tisícové haly a stadiony. V patnácti letech stál u jejího zrodu a jako její frontman ji dovedl k závratným výškám – na svém kontě má na 500 písniček včetně stovky hitů, přes čtyři miliony prodaných nosičů, 26 platinových alb, megakoncert na Letenské pláni v Praze, kam přišlo víc lidí než na Rolling Stones, vyprodanou Carnegie Hall, což se nepodařilo ani Karlu Gottovi…
Takových úspěchů dosahují jen nesmírně silné osobnosti. A tou Jožo Ráž nepochybně je. Vždyť jen málokdo může říct, že přežil svou vlastní smrt – po velmi vážné dopravní nehodě v červnu 1999 mu lékaři dávali jen desetiprocentní naději na přežití…
Jožo Ráž, to je také Láska jako ideologie Elánu a Maximum svobody a pravdy jako filozofie Elánu. Vymysleli je společně s jeho životním přítelem, textařem Borisem Filanem, a drží se jich ve svých písních dodnes. Stačí jen poslechnout si největší hity jako ‚Vymyslená‘, ‚Čakám ťa, láska‘, ‚Amnestia na neveru‘, ‚Kráľovná bielych tenisiek‘, ‚Človečina‘, ‚Bosorka‘, ‚Kočka‘, ‚Len kým tu si‘, ‚Ôsmy svetadiel‘, ‚Kde si‘, ‚Jedenáste prikázanie‘, ‚Tanečnice z Lúčnice‘, ‚Zaľúbil sa chlapec‘ nebo ‚Voda, čo ma drží nad vodou‘...
Jožo Ráž, to je také jedna žena na celý život – jeho „tanečnice z Lúčnice“ Barbora, s níž se seznámil už v šesté třídě, a které věnoval všechny své písničky. V tomto případě je raritou ve slovenském i českém šoubyznysu – krásnou a obdivuhodnou…
Jožo, to jsou rovněž dvě vnučky, tři feny a motorka Yamaha V-Max, kterou má zakázanou, ale na které jezdí, protože Jožo je už taký…
Zkušená autorka v životopisné knize přibližuje všechny odstíny života i kariéry Joža Ráže, zcela mimořádné osobnosti novodobých dějin československé a slovenské populární hudby.

Airline Maps - A Century of Art and Design
A nostalgic and celebratory look back at one hundred years of passenger flight, featuring full-color reproductions of route maps and posters from the world's most iconic airlines, from the author of bestselling cult classic Transit Maps of the World. In this gorgeously illustrated collection of airline route maps, Mark Ovenden and Maxwell Roberts look to the skies and transport readers to another time. Hundreds of images span a century of passenger flight, from the rudimentary trajectory of routes to the most intricately detailed birds-eye views of the land to be flown over. Advertisements for the first scheduled commercial passenger flights featured only a few destinations, with stunning views of the countryside and graphics of biplanes. As aviation took off, speed and mileage were trumpeted on bold posters featuring busy routes. Major airlines produced highly stylized illustrations of their global presence, establishing now-classic brands. With trendy and forward-looking designs, cartographers celebrated the coming together of different cultures and made the earth look ever smaller. Eventually, fleets got bigger and routes multiplied, and graphic designers have found creative new ways to display huge amounts of information. Airline hubs bring their own cultural mark and advertise their plentiful destination options. Innovative maps depict our busy world with webs of overlapping routes and networks of low-cost city-to-city hopping. But though flying has become more commonplace, Ovenden and Roberts remind us that early air travel was a glamorous affair for good reason. Airline Maps is a celebration of graphic design, cartographic skills and clever marketing, and a visual feast that reminds us to enjoy the journey as much as the destination.
