Life on the Octopus Farm
In 2021, the London School of Economics found that octopuses are sentient beings, capable of experiencing pain, distress, and happiness, and that high-welfare farming of them would therefore be impossible. But the enormous international demand for octopus meat continues to grow even as wild octopus populations decline, prompting a race to bring the first farm-raised product to market. At the same time, firestorms of protest in Europe and the United States over the ethics of farming such an intelligent creature are pressuring lawmakers to ban the practice altogether. After working at one of the world’s first octopus farms, on the Yucatán Peninsula, award-winning journalist Richard Schweid embarked on a global adventure to explore the ethics and future of octopus aquaculture. He traveled to octopus-farming sites in Mexico, Spain, and Japan where he met people on both sides of the ethical debate: marine biologists, businesspeople, restaurateurs, animal rights advocates, octopus farmers, and everyday fishermen whose livelihoods depend on wild octopus. In this vibrant account of his experiences, Schweid also engages pressing related issues: environmental impact; the need for sustainable farming opportunities in underresourced communities; and how global desires for specific foods place pressure on local populations. Ultimately, the appetite for octopus demonstrates the conundrums of our interconnected world—across countries, through oceans, and via the food we consume.

Zlatostříbrná fotbalová alej
Knížka vydavatelství BLINKR má jednoznačnou přednost v autentičnosti líčení všech událostí. Není kompilativní, ačkoliv časové odstupy jsou značné. Má jednak retrospektivní vztah k nejslavnějším úspěchům českého fotbalu, jimiž jsou mistrovství světa 1962 v Chile (stříbrné medaile), mistrovství Evropy ve fotbale 1976 (50. výročí) v Záhřebu a Bělehradě (bývalá Jugoslávie) a mistrovství Evropy ve fotbale 1996 (EURO 1996 – 30. výročí) v Anglii (stříbrné medaile). Jednoznačným motivem k vydání této publikace je aktuální mistrovství světa 2026 v USA, Kanadě a Mexiku (11. 6. – 17. 7. 2026), jehož se zúčastní i československý reprezentační tým.
Text je velmi atraktivní vzhledem k tomu, že vypravěčem kapitol o MS 1962 v Chile je Josef Jelínek, levé křídlo reprezentačního celku, a že v kapitolách o ME 1976 a EURO 1996 vypráví sám autor Felix Boom/Pavel Skramlík a reprezentant Karol Dobiaš, jemuž Pavel Skramlík napsal memoáry. Skramlík byl autorizovaným a akreditovaným novinářským zpravodajem českých deníků. Ze zpravodajů médií o těchto událostích už patrně není nikdo mezi živými. Jedná se o zcela autentická svědectví s řadou dosud nepublikovaných originálních výroků, často překvapivých, nikoliv o neautorizované, opisované a kompilační texty pozdních autorů, kteří mnohdy v době těchto událostí nebyli ani na světě. Jedná se tedy o čistě autentické autorské dílo.
