Súčasťou edície Kultúrne Krásy Slovenska bude aj nová publikácia Ľudová kultúra, ktorá je ďalším knižným počinom z hľadiska kultúrno-historickej prezentácie Slovenska. Slovensko je krajina mimoriadne bohatá na materiálne i duchovné pamiatky ľudovej k
ultúry. Ide o jeden z najdôležitejších fenoménov charakterizujúci slovenský národ i krajinu. Súčasne predstavuje významný prínos do klenotnice európskej kultúry. Prírodné podmienky a členenie slovenskej krajiny spolu s etnicitou, konfesiou, migračným
i prúdmi a historickými udalosťami spôsobili neobyčajnú pestrosť a variabilitu obyvateľstva, ktorá našla odraz v jeho materiálnej i duchovnej kultúre. Slovensko bolo od nepamäti križovatkou západoeurópskych a východoeurópskych kultúr, čo dodnes vytvá
ra badateľné rozdiely medzi jeho západnou a východnou časťou. Zároveň sa nachádzalo na rozhraní nížinnej a horskej geografickej oblasti, čo takisto zanechalo stopy v spôsobe života nielen vo sfére materiálnej a duchovnej kultúry, ale aj v spoločenský
ch vzťahoch. Cieľom publikácie je sústrediť do jedného celku osobitosti ľudovej kultúry jednotlivých regiónov Slovenska a prehľadnou formou predostrieť mozaiku jeho kultúrnej pestrosti. Určená je všetkým, ktorí chcú bližšie spoznať Slovensko, jeho kr
ajinu, históriu, kultúru a najmä ľudí, ktorí tu žijú. Publikácia Ľudová kultúra je tak trochu i sprievodcom po regiónoch Slovenska a snaží sa poskytnúť komplexnú predstavu o ich kultúrnej histórii ešte skôr, ako ich čitateľ navštívi. Dúfame, že vás z
aujme a že pri ich návšteve objavíte veľa často zabudnutej krásy. A možno si zreteľnejšie uvedomíte obrovské kultúrne posolstvo, ktoré nám zanechali naši predkovia, a možno pocítite aj trochu hrdosti na všetko, čo nás obklopuje.

Stop Reading the News
STOP READING THE NEWS is a vital toolkit for managing the upsetting coronavirus news cycle and finding equilibrium and calm at a time of chaos and uncertainty
In 2013 Rolf Dobelli stood in front of a roomful of journalists and proclaimed that he did not read the news. It caused a riot. Now he finally sets down his philosophy in detail. And he practises what he preaches: he hasn't read the news for a decade.
Stop Reading the News is Dobelli's manifesto about the dangers of the most toxic form of information - news. He shows the damage it does to our concentration and well-being, and how a misplaced sense of duty can misdirect our behaviour.
From the author of the bestselling The Art of Thinking Clearly, Rolf Dobelli's book offers the reader guidance about how to live without news, and the many potential gains to be had: less disruption, more time, less anxiety, more insights. In a world of increasing disruption and division, Stop Reading the News is a welcome voice of calm and wisdom.

The Power of Not Thinking
Have you ever relied on your hand to remember your pin rather than your memory?
Or acted out a golf stroke before going for it?
Or listened to your gut on a big decision?
In this insightful new book, leading business anthropologist Simon Roberts breaks down the revolutionary idea of embodied knowledge: the information that is unconsciously picked up by our body for use in every area of our lives.
Drawing on his own experience working with some of the world's leading industry experts and looking at a range of real-life examples and cutting-edge science, Roberts explains the various ways in which our body acquires, retains and employs information and why we should learn to trust the instincts that inform the most crucial decisions and actions in our lives.
The Power of Not Thinking shows why humans are capable of far more than we are currently led to believe.
We just have to stop thinking and start trusting our bodies.

Foolproof
One of the world's top experts on fighting misinformation reveals the psychology behind its power - and how we can protect ourselves.
From fake news to conspiracy theories, from pandemics to politics, misinformation may be the defining problem of our era. Like a virus, misinformation infects our minds - altering our beliefs and replicating at astonishing rates. Once the virus takes hold, our primary strategies of fact-checking and debunking are an insufficient cure.
In Foolproof Sander van der Linden describes how to inoculate yourself and others against the spread of misinformation, discern fact from fiction and push back against methods of mass persuasion.
Everyone is susceptible to fake news. There are polarising narratives in society, conspiracy theories are rife, fake experts dole out misleading advice and accuracy is often lost in favour of sensationalist headlines. So how and why does misinformation spread if we're all aware of its existence? And, more importantly, what can we do about it?
Sander van der Linden takes us through the psychology of conspiratorial thinking and equips us with the eleven antigens needed to help stop the spread of misinformation once and for all.

Presence
How can we be our strongest selves in life's most challenging situations? We often approach these situations - job interviews, difficult conversations, speaking up for ourselves - with anxiety and leave them with regret. Moments that require us to be genuine and powerful instead cause us to feel phoney and powerless, preventing us from being our best selves.
Harvard professor Amy Cuddy shows us we need to stop worrying about the impression we're making on others, and instead change the impression we're making on ourselves. Cutting-edge science reveals that if we adopt behaviours reflecting power and strength, we liberate ourselves from the fears and doubts that obstruct us. By redirecting our thoughts, actions, and even physiology, we free ourselves to be our best.
Amy Cuddy galvanised viewers around the world with her TED talk on 'power poses'. Now she explains the science underlying these and many other fascinating body-mind effects, and teaches us how to use this science to become self-assured in high-pressure moments.
Impassioned, beautifully researched, and accessible, PRESENCE is filled with stories of individuals facing real obstacles, and succeeding against the odds. Every reader will learn how to approach stress-filled challenges without fear and leave them without regret.
Fyneshade
Many would find much to fear in Fyneshade's dark and crumbling corridors, its unseen master and silent servants. But not I. For they have far more to fear from me... On the day of her beloved grandmother's funeral, Marta discovers that she is to become governess to the young daughter of Sir William Pritchard. Separated from her lover and discarded by her family, Marta has no choice but to journey to Pritchard's ancient and crumbling house, Fyneshade, in the wilds of Derbyshire. All is not well at Fyneshade. Marta's pupil, little Grace, can be taught nothing, and Marta takes no comfort from the silent servants who will not meet her eye. More intriguing is that Sir William is mysteriously absent, and his son and heir Vaughan is forbidden to enter the house. Marta finds herself drawn to Vaughan, despite the warnings of the housekeeper that he is a danger to all around him. But Marta is no innocent to be preyed upon. Guided by the dark gift taught to her by her grandmother, she has made her own plans. And it will take more than a family riven by murderous secrets to stop her... Perfect for readers of Laura Purcell, Jessie Burton and Stacey Halls, Fyneshade is a dark and twisted gothic novel unlike any you've read before...
Beasts of War

Koffi, once a servant to the god of death, is now free, but her former captor will stop at nothing to hunt her down and use her power to destroy the mortal world.

Ekon, a warrior-turned-runaway, is still haunted by the shadows of his past. Now his task is to get Koffi to the Kusonga Plains before the Bonding - and if he fails, Koffi will not survive. Ekon devotes himself to protecting Koffi, but the lingering threats from his own past are more urgent than he knows.
As Koffi and Ekon race to the Kusonga Plains - and try to garner the help of Eshoza's ancient gods along the way - they must face dangerous beasts old and new. In the end, destiny may unite Koffi and Ekon for the last time-or tear them apart for good.
An extraordinary adventure inspired by Pan-African mythology, and the eagerly anticipated sequel to BEASTS OF PREY and BEASTS OF RUIN.
Growing Up Human
Growing Up Human reveals how our evolutionary history has shaped a phenomenon experienced by all readers – childhood.
Tracking our evolutionary history, anthropological science has begun to unravel one feature that sets us apart from the many animals that came before us – our uniquely long childhoods. Growing Up Human looks at how we have diverged from our roots to stay 'forever young' and how the evolution of childhood is a critical part of the human story.
Beginning with the ways animals invest in their offspring, anthropologist Brenna Hassett moves through the steps of making a baby, from pair-bonding to hidden ovulation, points where our species has repeatedly stepped off the standard primate path. From the mystery of monogamy to the minefield of modern parenting advice, Hassett explains how differences between humans and our closest cousins have led to our messy mating systems, dangerous pregnancies, and difficult births, and what these tell us about our babies we are trying to build.
Using observations of our closest primate relatives, archaeological relics, and the bones and teeth of our ancestors, Growing Up Human explores the evolution of our childhood right down the fossil record. In our species, investment doesn't stop at birth, and examining every aspect of our care and feeding, from the chemical composition of our milk to formal education, reveals what we have evolved our weird and wonderful childhoods for.
A=-A
A=-A is a beautiful, dark and surreal story, about a man called Alpha whose world is quite literally turned upside down for a day. As he wanders the streets of his hometown, reality flips on its axis, sending him and the reader on a wild and extraordinary journey.
This wholly immersive, escapist, psychedelic mystery centres around two profound philosophical questions: in a strange and unreliable world, can we be certain of anything? And if we stop craving certainty - and entertain doubt - what new possibilities become available to us?
