Walking Europe's Last Wilderness
An evocative voyage through the Carpathian mountain range and its threatened landscape, peoples, and history
The Carpathian Mountains of Poland, Slovakia, Romania, and Ukraine are Europe's last true wilderness. A landscape of great spruce and beech forests, grass meadows, and ancient villages, its people contend daily with the elements-as well as Europe's last large carnivores. But this fragile ecosystem is now under threat, from climate change and illegal logging.
Journeying from the banks of the Danube to Transylvania, Nick Thorpe guides us through the history and ecology of the watershed of Europe, between the Black Sea and the Baltic. For a thousand years the Carpathians have been a place of refuge, of identity and belonging, where powerful rulers and dynasties fought to gain control over rich gold seams and the unruly inhabitants of strategic valleys. Today, its inhabitants struggle to protect its vast forest habitat from urban sprawl as well as logging.
Drawing on interviews with shepherds, foresters and loggers, and his four decades of experience in the region, Thorpe sheds light on a neglected part of Europe-where bears, wolves, chamois, and lynxes still roam.
Stezkami přírodovědného poznání
Výpravná kniha Stezkami přírodovědného poznání nabízí jedinečný pohled na dějiny přírodních a exaktních věd v českých zemích – prostřednictvím míst, která nesou stopy vědeckého objevování, lidské zvídavosti i kulturní paměti. Kniha vznikla jako výstup projektu Živá mapa a volně navazuje na interaktivní mapu i putovní výstavu; v tištěné podobě však nabízí podstatně rozšířený a literárně živý „experiment“ na pomezí kulturní historie, naučné literatury a terénního průvodce.
Dvanáct tematických kapitol zve čtenáře na cestu napříč krajinou a staletími: od rozhleden, z nichž se měnila tvář kartografie, přes astronomická a kosmologická tajemství Starého Města pražského či geologické příběhy pozorované „oknem vlaku“, až po krkonošskou botaniku, aristokratická sídla nebo proměny lednicko-valtického areálu, kde se setkává svět ptáků a lidí. Nechybí ani zastavení u osobností, jako byli Barrande, Mendel či vizionáři baťovského Zlína. Každé z více než stovky zastavení propojuje konkrétní místo se širšími vědeckými, kulturními i civilizačními souvislostmi.
Bohaté ilustrace a mapy spolu s důrazem na různorodé vědecké perspektivy činí z knihy inspirativního společníka pro čtení v křesle i pro vlastní výpravy do terénu. Stezkami přírodovědného poznání je pozvánkou k objevování světa, v němž se česká příroda a krajina ukazují jako fascinující mozaika vědy, kultury a lidské zvědavosti.

Alone in Japan
No sex. No kids. No future?
When Tom Feiling moved to Tokyo as a student in the early nineties, Japan was a beacon of the future: a rising superpower, a technology giant, and a global symbol of prosperity, civility and success.
When he returned twenty-four years later, the country was still a sign of things to come – but, he began to realize, it was no longer a beacon. It was a warning. This book offers a unique portrait of life in contemporary Japan, from the quiet of its furthest flung villages to the dynamism of its megacities.
It tells the story of how, from the mid-seventies onwards, Japanese society unknowingly embarked on a vast, silent process of transformation that is still unfolding today. The country is still peaceful; it is still prosperous. But the population is shrinking.
As things stand, it will fall by a third with each new generation. Travelling through shrines and bars, rice fields and mango farms, coffee shops and old peoples’ homes, Feiling meets those affected by, and driving, this transformation. Through countless interviews and extensive research, he weaves together a powerful account of how and why men and women are ceasing to pair off and have kids.
He reveals how sexual appetites and behaviours are both shaped by, and reshaping the evolving economy, and considers the risks – and the opportunities – of the rise in solo living in Japan, and beyond. Clear-sighted and surprising, Alone in Japan is a portrait of love, sex and death in contemporary Japan that should provoke and engage us all. It is an electrifying portrait of a nation on the brink by one of the most original reporters working today.
