Great Expectations (Oxford World´s Classics)
Great Expectations charts the progress of Pip from childhood through often painful experiences to adulthood, as he moves from the Kent marshes to busy, commercial London, encountering a variety of extraordinary characters ranging from Magwitch, the e
scaped convict, to Miss Havisham, locked up with her unhappy past and living with her ward, the arrogant, beautiful Estella. In this compelling story, Dickens shows the dangers of being driven by a desire for wealth and social status. Pip must establ
ish his own sense of self against the plans which others seem to have for him, and thus discover a firm set of values and priorities. Whether such values will allow one to prosper in the complex world of early Victorian England is, however, the major
question posed by Great Expectations, one of Dickens's most fascinating and disturbing novels. This edition uses the text of the Clarendon edition, with a new Introduction and explanatory notes. The appendices give the original, discarded ending, Di
ckens's brief working notes, and the serial instalments and chapter divisions in different editions.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú obálku ako je zobrazená tu. Zobra
zená obálka môže byť iba ilustračná. Obsah knihy aj cena budú však identické, bez ohľadu na obálku.

Chaos: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)
Chaos exists in systems all around us. Even the simplest system of cause and effect can be subject to chaos, denying us accurate predictions of its behaviour, and sometimes giving rise to astonishing structures of large-scale order. Our growing understanding of Chaos Theory is having fascinating applications in the real world - from technology to global warming, politics, human behaviour, and even gambling on the stock market. Leonard Smith shows that we all have an intuitive understanding of chaotic systems. He uses accessible maths and physics (replacing complex equations with simple examples like pendulums, railway lines, and tossing coins) to explain the theory, and points to numerous examples in philosophy and literature (Edgar Allen Poe, Chang-Tzu, Arthur Conan Doyle) that illuminate the problems. The beauty of fractal patterns and their relation to chaos, as well as the history of chaos, and its uses in the real world and implications for the philosophy of science are all discussed in this Very Short Introduction.

Warcraft- Duše démona
Děj je účinně jednoduchý. Vést válku a snažit se vyhrát. Takže Lord Ravencrest pod své velení seskupuje všechny elfské bojovníky a vyráží na hlavní město Zin-Azshari „zachránit“ svou královnu. To vše podniká sice velmi chytře, avšak jeho arogance mu zabraňuje spojit se s jinými rasami na Krasovu radu. Což je docela pochopitelné, když vezmeme v potaz, že i za mnoho a mnoho desítek let (dle známé historie) to bude stát hodně sil a přemlouvání. Hrdinům z budoucnosti mnoho možností tedy nezbývá. Zjistí, že stejně už proběhlo několik situací a zabití, která se stát neměla a jenž znamenají velkou nejistotu pro všechny zúčastněné. Proto musejí bojovat ze všech sil a snažit se neprohrát. Aby vůbec nějaká budoucnost zůstala.

Tajná kronika rychlých šípů
Kniha přináší povídky sympaticky krátké, ale taky sympaticky přemýšlivé. Kučeru provokuje otázka, která v naší epoše informací a dezinformací napadá myslícího člověka přinejmenším několikrát denně: Nebylo náhodou všechno úplně jinak, než jak to známe z dějin, z literatury, z médií? S mytickými a historickými postavami rozehrává ironicko-poetickou partii, aby nám se vší možnou přesvědčivostí předvedl, co všecko se může stát. Kučerovy apokryfy jsou nejen stručně a chytře vymyšlené, ale také suverénně napsané.

Láska
Hnacou silou románu Láska je manželský zväzok založený na ľudskej amorálnosti medzi päťdesiatdvaročným Billom Coseym a jeho manželkou, ešte dieťaťom, ktoré si kúpil za dvesto dolárov. V časoch, keď v Spojených štátoch zúrila rasová segregácia bol Cosey majiteľom vyhľadávaného luxusného hotela v jednom z najlepších prímorských letovísk. Coseyovci patrili k vyššej čiernej vrstve a tak aj po Coseyho smrti sú spomienky naňho pre miestnych neustále témou rozhovorov. Hotel už nefunguje a chátra, letovisko zíva prázdnotou, medzi dedičkami panuje nenávisť a vzájomne si znepríjemňujú život. V útlom románe Láska nájdeme vraždu, podpaľačstvo, zohavenie mladého dievčaťa, fetišizmus, pedofíliu, znásilnenie tlupou tínedžerov a zneužitie mladistvých, prostitúciu, vydieranie, sadomasochizmus, defenestráciu i rozzúrený dav zaháňajúci sa vedrom ľudských výkalov. Ohavnosti však Morrisonová vyvažuje v každom svojom diele i láskavosťou. Tentoraz je to pekný vzťah medzi starými rodičmi a vnukom.

Black Cat - Naufragios + CD
Resulta fascinante comprobar el estado en el que se encontraba América a los treinta aos de ser descubierta. En ese instante histórico es cuando llegan los navíos de Pánfilo de Narváez al golfo de Méjico. Tenían nociones geográficas de la zona pero muy confusas y equivocadas, lo que unido a las desfavorables condiciones climatológicas, hizo que solamente cuatro entre los seiscientos expedicionarios lograron sobrevivir a tan desafortunada expedición. Para poder sobrevivir a situaciones tan terribles era necesario tener una voluntad y una fe de hierro. Durante sus nueve aos de convivencia con los indios, el autor aprendió a amarlos. Tras ser encontrado casualmente por otros espaoles, que formaban parte de otra expedición, es conducido frente a Hernán Cortés. Finalmente, los cuatro supervivientes, tras diez aos de aventuras increíbles por el Nuevo Mundo, desembarcaron en Lisboa. Habría que imaginar la expresión de los rostros de sus familiares y amigos al verles de nuevo. La realidad histórica que vivieron, supera a las más emocionantes fantasías de las novelas de aventuras.

Clarissa, or the History of A Young Lady
Pressured by her unscrupulous family to marry a wealthy man she detests, the young Clarissa Harlowe is tricked into fleeing with the witty and debonair Robert Lovelace and places herself under his protection. Lovelace, however, proves himself to be an untrustworthy rake whose vague promises of marriage are accompanied by unwelcome and increasingly brutal sexual advances. And yet, Clarissa finds his charm alluring, her scrupulous sense of virtue tinged with unconfessed desire. Told through a complex series of interweaving letters, Clarissa is a richly ambiguous study of a fatally attracted couple and a work of astonishing power and immediacy. A huge success when it first appeared in 1747, and translated into French and German, it remains one of the greatest of all European novels.

Kleopatra
V portrétu historika Michaela Granta se nabízí živý obraz mimořádné ženy. Obraz, který nevychází jen z mýtů a legend, ale především z dokumentů, historických záznamů a vědeckého bádání. Představuje se tu milenka velkých mužů, ale také žena, která rozhodovala o budoucnosti své země a která se tuto zemi snažila zachránit. Vzdělaná panovnice a chytrá politička, toužící navrátit Egyptu jeho zašlou slávu. Marně. Kleopatra bývá vnímána zejména jako rozmařilá královna, která chtěla ovládnout velké muže. Ale historik Grant ji ukazuje jako bytost živou, jako královnu z řecké dynastie, která se jako první ze všech vládců naučila řeč lidu, jemuž panovala. Jako političku, které šlo vždy především o budoucnost Egypta, o jeho záchranu před římskou nadvládou. A jako nekompromisní vládkyni, která uměla krutě potlačit své nepřátele.
