Lacná kniha Sum Of Our Days (-70%)
A brilliant memoir from the celebrated Chilean novelist on friends, family and life in California, her adopted home. Isabel Allende has sold more than 50 million copies of her books worldwide. The most beloved and successful of her books, 'The House of the Spirits', was based on her Chilean childhood, and her autobiographical works include the deeply moving 'Paula' -- a family history written at the bedside of her daughter while she lay in a coma -- and the fascinating 'My Invented Country', which explored the events of her native Chile where she lived until Pinochet's military coup. Now, in 'The Sum of the Days', we have Isabel describe in an exceptionally vivid, human and deeply personal way her life in California where she has lived for more than 25 years. The first page picks up from where Paula ends -- her daughter never did wake up from her coma and died in 1992 -- when Allende recounts spreading Paula's ashes in her favourite part of the woods by their home. It is fair to say that Isabel has never recovered from losing her daughter but has managed to survive by keeping her husband, son, grandchildren as well as close friends -- kindred spirits -- central to her life.' The Sum of the Days', based on Allende's own journals and daily correspondence with her mother in Chile, reveals the author to be a dazzling, generous, warm and hysterically funny matriarch within her swirl of family and friends.

Dva svety
Svet neďalekej budúcnosti, vyspelá technika, umelá inteligencia, ľudské odcudzenie a uprostred toho mladá policajtka Líza. Jej milovaný manžel náhle z nepochopiteľných príčin upadol do kómy spolu s miliónom ďalších ľudí - v jedno ráno, v jednu minútu a sekundu ju bez varovania opustil.
Dva roky samoty a beznádeje preruší stretnutie s Alexom, ktorého postretol v to nešťastné ráno rovnaký osud. Kto iný môže lepšie pochopiť hĺbku Lízinho smútku a prázdnoty ako on?
Neúnavným pátraním Líza zisťuje, že podivný spánok ich najbližších nezavinila náhoda. Lenže to ani zďaleka netušila, že jej predchádzajúci život bol iba dobre nasimulovaným divadlom.
Na vlastnú päsť rozohráva riskantnú hru, ktorej nitky vedú do najvyšších kruhov, a sama sa tak ocitá v nebezpečenstve.
A čo ak sa v jedno ráno, v jednu minútu a sekundu možno opäť všetko zmení? Čo to spraví s Lízou a Alexom? Koho vlastne milujú, ako sa rozhodnú a zachránia si vôbec holé životy?
Dva svety prinášajú napätie, lásku aj nenávisť a sú mrazivou výpoveďou o tom, že svet budúcnosti postavený na umelej inteligencii a moderných technológiách nám pripravuje pasce plné samoty a blúdenia.

Ivanko je budúci prvák a jeho mamička čaká bábätko. A hoci je mu s mamou doma dobre, Ivanko sa občas nudí. Pani suseda Malíková privedie z Bratislavy na návštevu dievčatko Zuzanku a predstaví ju Ivankovi ako novú kamarátku. On ale nevie, čo so Zuzankou robiť - ani s autíčkami sa nevie hrať, ani po stromoch loziť, ani povedať „r“ nevie, no čo s ňou? A tak sa zdá, že kamaráti nebudú... Postupne sa skamarátia a dokonca sa mu to dievčatko so žltou mašľou začína páčiť. Je ochotný rozdeliť sa s ňou o koláč a požičať jej svoju najobľúbenejšiu hračku, ba aj oženiť sa.

How Emotions Are Made
'Fascinating . . . a thought-provoking journey into emotion science' The Wall Street Journal
When you feel anxious, angry, happy, or surprised, what's really going on inside of you?
Many scientists believe that emotions come from a specific part of the brain, triggered by the world around us. The thrill of seeing an old friend, the fear of losing someone we love - each of these sensations seems to arise automatically and uncontrollably from within us, finding expression on our faces and in our behaviour, carrying us away with the experience.
This understanding of emotion has been around since Plato. But what if it is wrong? In How Emotions Are Made, pioneering psychologist and neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett draws on the latest scientific evidence to reveal that our common-sense ideas about emotions are dramatically, even dangerously, out of date - and that we have been paying the price. Emotions aren't universally pre-programmed in our brains and bodies; rather they are psychological experiences that each of us constructs based on our unique personal history, physiology and environment.
This new view of emotions has serious implications: when judges issue lesser sentences for crimes of passion, when police officers fire at threatening suspects, or when doctors choose between one diagnosis and another, they're all, in some way, relying on the ancient assumption that emotions are hardwired into our brains and bodies. Revising that conception of emotion isn't just good science, Barrett shows; it's vital to our well-being and the health of society itself.

Šach & mat
Autorka bestsellera Hypotéza lásky prináša YA debut o šachistoch, ktorí sa stretnú v zápase o vlastné srdce.
Mallory Greenleafová so šachom skončila. Potom čo tento šport pred štyrmi rokmi viedol k rozvratu jej rodiny, venuje sa svojej mame, sestrám a práci. Teda až do chvíle, keď neochotne súhlasí, že si zahrá na poslednom charitatívnom turnaji. Nechtiac sa stretne s Nolanom Sawyerom, súčasným majstrom sveta a úradujúcim šachovým bad boyom.
Nolanova prehra s neznámou šachistkou všetkých šokuje. On však túži zahrať si s ňou znova. Čo má Nolan za lubom? Bolo by múdre odísť. Vzdať sa. Hra sa skončila. Víťazstvo jej však otvára dvere k peňažným výhram, ktoré fakt potrebuje. A navyše sa nemôže ubrániť pocitu, že ju to k záhadnému stratégovi ťahá...
Mallory sa snaží svoju rodinu oddeliť od sveta hry, ktorá ju zničila. Jej láska k šachu, ktorý chcela zúfalo nenávidieť, sa začne znovu prebúdzať. Uvedomuje si, že hra neprebieha len na šachovnici, žiara reflektorov je spaľujúcejšia, než očakávala, a konkurencia vie byť krutá (príťažlivá, inteligentná a neznesiteľná).

Lacná kniha Excavating Kafka (-90%)
Kafka's features, and that dreaded word, Kafkaesque, are known to millions who have never read serious literature. Generations of academics and critics have maintained the image of Franz Kafka as a tortured seer whose works defy interpretation. In Excavating Kafka James Hawes reveals the truth that lies beneath the image of a middle-European Nostradamus with a typographically irresistible name. The real Franz Kafka was no angst-ridden paranoid but a well-groomed young man-about-town who frequented brothels, had regular sex with a penniless-but-pretty girl and subscribed to upmarket pornography (published by the very man who published Kafka's first stories). Excavating Kafka debunks a number of key facets of the Kafka-Myth, including the idea that Kafka was the archetypal genius neglected in his lifetime; that he was stuck in a dead-end job and struggling to find time to write; that he was tormented by fear of sex; that he had a uniquely terrible, domineering father who had no understanding of his son's needs; that his literature is mysterious and opaque; that he constructs fantasy-worlds in which innocent everymen live in fear of mysterious and totalitarian powers-that-be. Written with the panache of a supremely gifted comic writer, Excavating Kafka is an engaging and involving reassessment of a major figure of literary modernism that will be welcomed and enjoyed by students of Kafka and by general readers alike.

Patologie, 3., doplněné a přepracované vydání
Třetí vydání této učebnice patologie vychází z předcházejícího 2., doplněného vydání. Vzhledem k tomu, že od vydání uběhlo 10 let, objevily se nové klasifikace patologických změn, které by studenti měli znát. Autoři také přihlížejí k cizím textům, převážně k nejnovější americké učebnici Robbins & Cotran: Pathologic basis of disease.
Od doby vydání vyšly velké učebnice Patologie prof. MUDr. C. Povýšila, prof. MUDr. I. Šteinera a spoluautorů; trojdílná učebnice Patologie prof. MUDr. J. Zámečníka, Ph.D., a spoluautorů. Obě díla jsou vynikající příručky pro studenty lékařských fakult, oboru všeobecné lékařství, a pro postgraduální vzdělávání. Pro bakalářské obory a také pro studenty zubního lékařství jsou však texty příliš rozsáhlé, studenti se v nich ztrácejí a nejsou schopni text absorbovat a proniknout do něj. Stejně tak by se předkládaná učebnice mohla použít pro rychlé opakování, vzhledem k lepší orientaci v ní.
Tato publikace se snaží medicínské termíny nejen uvádět, ale také vysvětlovat, takže studenti nemusejí výrazy hledat ve slovnících a v dalších odborných textech. Autoři používají jednoduché a srozumitelné věty.V učebnici jsou na četných místech tučně zvýrazněna klíčová slova, na která u zkoušky bude zkoušející čekat. Výhodou je také to, že jednosvazkové dílo se může lépe přenášet, a studenti se tak mohou knihou probírat i mimo domov.
Publikace může sloužit jako základní učebnice pro studenty zubního lékařství, jako doplňková učebnice pro studenty oboru všeobecné lékařství, ale hlavně pro studenty nelékařských zdravotnických oborů (v určitém omezeném rozsahu) a vyšších odborných zdravotnických škol.

Things We Left Behind
THE ALL NEW NOVEL FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO TIKTOK SENSATION THINGS WE NEVER GOT OVER AND 2023'S THINGS WE HIDE FROM THE LIGHT.
There was only one woman who could set me free. But I would rather set myself on fire than ask Sloane Walton for anything. Lucian Rollins is a lean, mean vengeance-seeking mogul.
On a quest to erase his father's mark on the family name, he spends every waking minute pulling strings and building an indestructible empire. The more money and power he amasses, the safer he is from threats. Except when it comes to the feisty small-town librarian that keeps him up at night .
. . Sloane Walton is a spitfire determined to carry on her father's quest for justice.
She'll do that just as soon as she figures out exactly what the man she hates did to - or for - her family. Bonded by an old, dark secret from the past and the dislike they now share for each other, Sloane trusts Lucian about as far as she can throw his designer-suited body. When bickering accidentally turns to foreplay, these two find themselves not quite regretting their steamy one-night stand.
Once those flames are fanned, it seems impossible to put them out again. But with Sloane ready to start a family and Lucian refusing to even consider the idea of marriage and kids, these enemies-to-lovers are stuck at an impasse. Broken men break women.
It's what Lucian believes, what he's witnessed, and he's not going to take that chance with Sloane. He'd rather live a life of solitude than put her in danger. But he learns the hard way that leaving her means leaving her unprotected from other threats.
It's the second time he's ruthlessly cut her out of his life. There's no way she's going to give him a third chance. He's just going to have to make one for himself.
Aféry zámku Ashmore
Anglicko, 1903.
Giles, nový gróf zo Staintonu, sa po otcovej smrti snaží zveľadiť rodinné panstvo a na svoju tehotnú manželku Kitty nemá veľa času. Tá žije v strachu pred svokrou, ktorá sa nechce vzdať vedenia domácnosti. Stane sa Kitty jedného dňa skutočnou paňou zámku Ashmore? Možno by pomohlo, ak by porodila chlapca.
Aj grófove mladšie sestry prvýkrát okúsia romantiku, hoci nie vždy s tými správnymi ľuďmi. Richard nadväzuje zakázaný vzťah s Molly, zatiaľ čo Nina si nájde nového priateľa, ktorý jej prinesie viac problémov než radosti.
Na chodbách zámku Ashmore striehnu ambície, žiarlivosť a pomsta, ale skutočné výzvy na jeho obyvateľov ešte len čakajú. Niekto si siahne na život, iný okúsi nežný románik a ktosi sa bez stopy stratí...

Check & Mate
In this clever and swoonworthy new novel from the New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis, life's moving pieces bring rival chess players together in a match for the heart. Mallory Greenleaf is done with chess. Every move counts nowadays; after the sport led to the destruction of her family four years earlier, Mallory's focus is on her mom, her sisters, and the dead-end job that keeps the lights on.
That is, until she begrudgingly agrees to play in one last charity tournament and inadvertently wipes the board with notorious 'Kingkiller' Nolan Sawyer: current world champion and reigning Bad Boy of chess. Nolan's loss to an unknown rookie shocks everyone. What's even more confusing? His desire to cross pawns again.
What kind of gambit is Nolan playing? The smart move would be to walk away. Resign. Game over.
But Mallory's victory opens the door to sorely needed cash-prizes and despite everything, she can't help feeling drawn to the enigmatic strategist... As she rockets up the ranks, Mallory struggles to keep her family safely separated from the game that wrecked it in the first place. And as her love for the sport she so desperately wanted to hate begins to rekindle, Mallory quickly realizes that the games aren't only on the board, the spotlight is brighter than she imagined, and the competition can be fierce (-ly attractive.
And intelligent... and infuriating...)This novel is suitable for both young adult and adult audiences.
