Lacná kniha Život medzi nebom a zemou
Kniha rozhovorov s najrozmanitejšími osobnosťami, ktorí boli hostia kňaza, publicistu a cestovateľa Mariána Gavendu v televíznej relácii LUX. Sú to osobnosti, ktorých ľudskou či tvorivou dominantou nebol duchovný život. Rozhovor s nimi mal divákom ukázať, že aj všetci títo muži a ženy, mladí i starí, laici i klerici sa pohybujú niekde „medzi nebom a zemou“ a ich bežnú životnú skúsenosť pretkáva aj duchovná dimenzia, ktorá má rozmanité podoby. Tie môžu byť motiváciou, obohatením a osviežením pre všetkých. Kniha obsahuje devätnásť rozhovorov s osobnosťami, ako sú: Ľubomír Feldek, Karol Kállay, Darina Laščiaková, Miroslav Saniga, Mária Jasenková, Lívia Rovná a iní. Ambíciou knižky je ukázať, že duchovno sa snúbi so svetskými záujmami, že náboženská dimenzia, jej témy, životné otázniky i odpovede patria k ľudskej prirodzenosti. Každý človek sa konfrontuje s touto témou. Kniha Život medzi nebom a zemou toto všetko prirodzene zahŕňa.

Lacná kniha Šmíca - autorizovaná zpověď fotbalové legendy
Rozsáhlý rozhovor s Vladimírem Šmicerem se soustřeďuje na klíčové okamžiky jeho kariéry. V interview mluví Šmicer otevřeně o obdobích krizí, ale vzpomíná také na chvíle, kdy dosáhl největších triumfů. Profesionální fotbal se prolíná s osobním životem.
Kniha Šmíca ale není vzpomínkovou knihou. Oba její aktéři, Vladimír Šmicer a David Hrbek, jdou po tématech, mluví spolu o vztazích mezi hráči v týmu, o mentální síle i slabostech, o umění postavit dobrý fotbalový tým, o fanoušcích, médiích a mnohém jiném. Výsledkem je plastický portrét Vladimíra Šmicera, který doplňují rozhovory s trenérem Karlem Brücknerem, hercem Ivanem Trojanem a sportovním psychologem Michalem Šafářem.

Lacná kniha Beszélgetések az elmúlásról
"Az én jelszavam, hogy "Halottnak kuss!". Ami alatt azt értem, hogy aki meghal, az ne szóljon bele, hogy mi lesz utána." (Csányi Vilmos)
"Az eutanázia egyértelműen pártolandó. Természetesen arra vigyázni kell, hogy ne öldössék az embereket ezzel az ürüggyel." (Vekerdy Tamás)
Két elismert magyar gondolkodó és közéleti személyiség Révai Gábor írónak vallott az egyik legszemélyesebb és leginkább tabunak számító, de mindenkit foglalkoztató témáról: a halálról. Csányi és Vekerdy személyesen nem ismerik egymást, így megfontolandó, ugyanakkor gyakran provokatív nézeteik a kérdező közvetítésével, látatlanban csapnak össze. Bár a beszélgetések apropója az elmúlás, a két vitapartner az élet legnagyobb kérdéseit ugyanúgy érinti, mint azok hétköznapi vonatkozásait. És mi más is adhatna mindennek keretet, mint egy tartalmas beszélgetés?

Nothing To Envy
In this landmark addition to the literature of totalitarianism, award-winning journalist Barbara Demick follows the lives of six North Korean citizens over fifteen years—a chaotic period that saw the death of Kim Il-sung, the rise to power of his son Kim Jong-il (the father of Kim Jong-un), and a devastating famine that killed one-fifth of the population.
Demick brings to life what it means to be living under the most repressive regime today—an Orwellian world that is by choice not connected to the Internet, where displays of affection are punished, informants are rewarded, and an offhand remark can send a person to the gulag for life. She takes us deep inside the country, beyond the reach of government censors, and through meticulous and sensitive reporting we see her subjects fall in love, raise families, nurture ambitions, and struggle for survival. One by one, we witness their profound, life-altering disillusionment with the government and their realization that, rather than providing them with lives of abundance, their country has betrayed them.
Sky Above Kharkiv
When Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Serhiy Zhadan took to social media to coordinate a network of resistance workers and send messages of courage to his fellow Ukrainians. What began as a local organizing effort exploded onto the international stage as readers around the globe looked to Zhadan as a key eyewitness documenting Russian atrocities.
In this powerful record of the war’s harrowing first four months, Zhadan works day and night in Kharkiv to evacuate children and the elderly from suburbs that have come under fire. He sends lists of life-saving medications to the West in the hopes of procuring them for civilians, coordinates food deliveries, collects money for military equipment, and organizes concerts. He shares photographs of the open sky?grateful for every pause in the shelling?and captures images of beloved institutions reduced to rubble. We’ll restore everything. We’ll rebuild everything, he writes.
As the days pass, the city empties. Friends are killed. And when images of the Bucha massacre are released, Zhadan’s own voice falters: I’m speechless. Hang in there, my friends. Tomorrow, we’ll wake up one day closer to our victory. An intimate work of witness literature, this book is at once the testimony of one man entering a new reality and the story of a society fighting for the right to exist.
The Other Pandemic
Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist James Ball takes us into the depths of the internet to trace the origins and rapid ascent of QAnon, the movement that mutated from a niche online conspiracy theory into the world s first digital pandemic.
*A Financial Times Book to Read in 2023*
Imagine a deadly pathogen that, once created, could infect any person in any part of the globe within seconds. No need to wait for travellers, trains, or air traffic to spread it, all you need is an internet connection. In this gripping investigation, Pulitzer Prize winner James Ball decodes the cryptic language of the online right and with a surgeon s precision tracks the spread of QAnon, the world s first digital pandemic.
QAnon began as an internet community dedicated to supporting President Trump and intent on outing a global cabal of human traffickers. A short, cryptic message posted by an anonymous user to a niche internet forum in 2017 was the spark that ignited a global movement. What started as a macabre game of virtual make-believe quickly spiralled into the spread of virulently hateful, dangerous messaging which turned into tragic, violent actions.
Incoherent, chaotic, free from agendas: QAnon is a one-size-fits all cult conspiracy. From a standoff at the Hoover Dam, to the storming of the U.S. Capitol on 6 January 2021, to protesting COVID-19 lockdowns, this digital pandemic has spread globally and shows no signs of stopping.
In The Other Pandemic Ball takes us into the niche pathways through which these digital pathogens spread, mutate and infect people all across the globe but he also argues that the prognosis doesn t have to be dire. He shows us that it is possible to treat and cure this virus in order to build up our digital immune systems, and be better prepared to survive the next wave.
Talking with Psychopaths and Savages: Guilty but Insane
The plea of insanity in criminal cases can be traced back at least to the Babylonian Code of Hammurabi, which dates from 1755-1759 BC. It is a complicated defence, and its origins in modern law lie with the 'M'Naghten Rules' of 1843, formulated by British judges as a jury instruction in cases where a plea of insanity had been entered. Daniel M'Naghten shot and killed one Edward Drummond, believing him to be the British Prime Minister, Sir Robert Peel, and was acquitted on the grounds of insanity, and the M'Naghten Rules still exert considerable influence over defences today.
Clearly a plea of insanity in murder cases is of critical importance when the death penalty is still applied, and even today it may still be the difference between a life sentence in a high-security prison, or an indeterminate one in a secure psychiatric hospital. Meanwhile, 27 of the USA's 50 states have retained or readopted the death penalty, and at least 54 other countries, including China, Russia, India, Iran and Saudi Arabia, also retain it.
Naturally, a criminal who was liable to swing for murder could, and sometimes did, make every attempt to appear insane, and this book examines some of these cases, as well as trials in which the accused was indeed judged to be insane. The failure rate is high; of seven American serial killers who deployed the defence in their trials, only two were successful, ending their days in secure psychiatric facilities; two were executed, and the other three either died or were killed while serving full-life sentences, or are still in gaol.
Broken Code
Facebook had a problem. Along with its sister platforms Instagram and WhatsApp, it was a daily destination for billions of users around the world, extolling its products for connecting people. But as a succession of scandals rocked Facebook from 2016, some began to question whether the company could control, or even understood, its own platforms.
As Facebook employees searched for answers, what they uncovered was worse than they could've imagined. The problems ran far deeper than politics. Facebook was peddling and amplifying anger, looking the other way at human trafficking, enabling drug cartels and authoritarians and allowing VIP users to break the platform's supposedly inviolable rules.
It turned out to be eminently possible to isolate many of Facebook's worst problems, but whenever employees offered solutions their work was consistently delayed, watered down or stifled by a company that valued user engagement above all else. The only option left was to blow the whistle.
In Broken Code, award-winning Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz tells the riveting inside story of these employees and their explosive discoveries, uncovering the shocking cost of Facebook's blind ambition in the process.
Shakespeare
Taking a curtain call with a live snake in her wig...
Cavorting naked through the Warwickshire countryside painted green...
Acting opposite a child with a pumpkin on his head...
These are just a few of the things Dame Judi Dench has done in the name of Shakespeare.
For the very first time, Judi opens up about every Shakespearean role she has played throughout her seven-decade career, from Lady Macbeth and Titania to Ophelia and Cleopatra.
In a series of intimate conversations with actor & director Brendan O'Hea, she guides us through Shakespeare's plays with incisive clarity. While revealing the secrets of her rehearsal process, sharing her personal interpretations of Shakespeare’s most famous scenes and inviting us to share in her triumphs, disasters, and backstage shenanigans. All brightened by her mischievous sense of humour, striking level of honesty and a peppering of hilarious anecdotes, many of which have remained under lock and key until now.
Instructive and witty, provocative and inspiring, this is ultimately Judi's love letter to Shakespeare, or rather, The Man Who Pays The Rent.
War and Punishment
From heroic dissident journalist Mikhail Zygar, a journey into the myths and fantasies that led Russia to violence in Ukraine
'History is made up of myths,' writes the renowned Russian dissident journalist Mikhail Zygar. 'Alas, our myths led us to the fascism of 2022. It is time to expose them.' Drawing from his perilous career investigating the frontiers of the Russian empire, Zygar reveals how 350 years of propaganda, bad historical scholarship, folk tales and fantasy spurred his nation into war with Ukraine.
How did a German monk's fear of the Ottoman Empire drive him to invent the fiction of a united Russian world? How did corny spy novels about a 'Soviet James Bond' inspire Vladimir Putin to join the KGB? How did Alexander Pushkin's admiration for a poem by Lord Byron end with him slandering the legendary chief of the Cossacks? And how did Putin underestimate a rising TV comic named Volodymyr Zelensky, failing to see that his satire had become deadly serious, and that his country would be a joke no longer?
A noted expert on the Kremlin with unparalleled access to hundreds of players in the current conflict - from politicians to oligarchs, gangsters to comedians (not least Zelensky himself) - Zygar chronicles the power struggles from which today's politics grew, and digs out the essential truths from behind layers of seductive legend. By surveying the strange, complex record of Russo-Ukrainian relations, War and Punishment reveals exactly how the largest nation on Earth lost its senses. A work of history can't undo the past or transform the present, but sometimes it can shape the future.
In fact, that's how the story begins.
The War Came To Us
The inside story of Ukraine's bravery and defiance in the face of Russian aggression, from the conflict's leading journalist. When President Putin ordered Russian troops to invade Ukraine, he unleashed a terror which struck at the very heart of Europe and broke the world order that had been in place since the fall of the Soviet Union. Financial Times reporter Christopher Miller has been embedded in Ukraine for 13 years and is one of the few journalists who knows Ukraine inside out, who was at the frontline in Crimea and who reported from bombed out Mariupol.
This book takes the reader from the coal-dusted, sunflower-covered steppe of the Donbas to the heart of the Euromaidan revolution camp in Kyiv; from the Black Sea shores of Crimea where Russian troops stealthily annexed Ukraine's peninsula to the bloody battlefields where warlords ruled with iron fists; to the destruction and terror wrought by Russian bombs in Bucha, Kharkiv, Mariupol, and beyond. This is the story of modern Ukraine and its transformation, as told through the lives of Ukrainians, their fears and struggles. It is Ukraine in all its glory: vast, weird, exhilarating, defiant, resilient, trying to escape the long shadow of its former imperial ruler while fighting to build a new future.
What's Eating Us
Blending personal narrative and investigative reporting, Emmy Award-winning journalist Cole Kazdin reveals that disordered eating is an epidemic crisis killing millions of women.
Women of all ages struggle with disordered eating, preoccupation with food, and body anxiety. Journalist Cole Kazdin was one such woman, and she set out to discover why her own full recovery from an eating disorder felt so impossible. Interviewing women across the country as well as the world’s most renowned researchers, she discovered that most people with eating disorders never receive treatment––the fact that she did made her one of the lucky ones.
Kazdin takes us to the doorstep of the diet industry and research community, exposing the flawed systems that claim to be helping us, and revealing disordered eating for the crisis that it is: a mental illness with the second highest mortality rate (after opioid-related deaths) that no one wants to talk about. Along the way, she identifies new treatments not yet available to the general public, grass roots movements to correct racial disparities in care, and strategies for navigating true health while still living in a dysfunctional world.
What would it feel like to be free? To feel gorgeous in your body, not ruminate about food, feel ease at meals, exercise with no regard for calories-burned? To never making a disparaging comment about your body again, even silently to yourself. Who can help us with this? We can.
What's Eating Us is an urgent battle cry coupled with stories and strategies about what works and how to finally heal?for real.
Nepřestat se dívat kolem sebe
Křehkost, rozhodnost, solidarita, brutalita. Neznalému pozorovateli může připadat hardcore-punková subkultura plná protikladů a nesrozumitelná, příliš divoká, nespoutaná a nebezpečná. Jenže za stěnou hluku, agresivních kytarových riffů a extatického křiku lze především slyšet tlukot lidského srdce.
Banán se na scéně aktivně pohybuje už více než 25 let a ve svém knižním rozhovoru mluví o ideálech, kvůli nimž se kdysi odcizil své rodině, o koncertech a legendárních klubech, o pendlování mezi šumavskými samotami a pražskými prodejnami desek, o empatii, politickém aktivismu, festivalu May Day a mnohaleté spolupráci s Antifašistickou akcí. Prozrazuje, co se stalo, když jeho kapela vyhrála Anděla, co jej spojovalo s Miss České republiky a jak tohle vše souvisí s punkovou etikou a jeho vnitřním nastavením. A nebojí se mluvit velmi otevřeně, o ostatních i o sobě. Pokud jste straight edge a nepijete alkohol jako Banán, pamatujete si toho opravdu hodně.
