Rozumne zmyselne
Ľudská sexualita a vzťahy sú nádherne rôznorodé a zaslúžia si pozornosť. Hovoriť o nich môžeme rozumne pomocou overených faktov a vedeckých štúdií, ale aj zmyselne – so zvedavosťou, s otvorenosťou a toleranciou. Táto kniha ťa prevedie vzrušujúcim obdobím života. Nájdeš v nej množstvo faktov a zaujímavostí o tele, sexe, vzťahoch, emóciách, LGBTIQ+, zdraví, bezpečnom randení či súhlase, ale aj o násilí či sexuálne prenosných chorobách. To, čo robíš so svojím telom, je tvoja slobodná voľba a prístup k informáciám tvoje právo.
Táto kniha je:
?bohato ilustrovaná a názorne ti ukáže nielen to, ako vyzerá ľudské telo a ako sa v maternici vyvíja plod, ale aj ako správne nasadiť kondóm, použiť tampón alebo si vyšetriť prsníky; venuje sa aj tvojej bezpečnosti – ochrane pred sexuálne prenosnými chorobami, nástrahami internetu alebo násilím;
?komplexná a nevenuje sa len telu, ale aj duši a vzťahom; ukáže ti rôzne typy partnerstiev, vysvetlí, čo je vzťahová väzba alebo ako ukončiť vzťah bez zbytočného ubližovania;
?inkluzívna, a ak cítiš, že nepatríš k väčšine, určite v nej nájdeš množstvo užitočných informácií – napríklad aký je rozdiel medzi rodom a pohlavím, ako prebieha tranzícia alebo coming out alebo čo spôsobujú rodové stereotypy.
MUDr. Richard Ančic napísal túto knihu aj na základe svojej osobnej skúsenosti s rakovinou semenníkov a s obmedzenou sexuálnou výchovou na Slovensku. Verí, že komplexné vzťahové a sexuálne vzdelávanie by malo byť dostupné pre každého bez ohľadu na sexuálnu orientáciu, rodovú identitu, sociálne podmienky alebo náboženstvo.
Je čerstvým absolventom Jesseniovej lekárskej fakulty v Martine UK. Bol zvolený za lokálneho koordinátora pre sexuálne a reprodukčné zdravie a práva vrátane HIV a AIDS, neskôr sa stal národným koordinátorom a v spolupráci s Ligou proti rakovine pripravoval podujatia pre verejnosť a školy. Absolvoval množstvo vzdelávacích aktivít a ako tréner viedol workshopy na tému sexuálneho a reprodukčného zdravia na viacerých medzinárodných podujatiach. V roku 2023 zaviedol v Slovenskej asociácii študentov medicíny projekt komplexnej vzťahovej a sexuálnej výchovy. Za svoje mimoškolské aktivity, najmä výučbu sexuálnej výchovy na školách a pre verejnosť, bol ocenený dekankou Jesseniovej lekárskej fakulty v Martine UK a rektorom Univerzity Komenského v Bratislave. Žije v Českej republike a pracuje na neurológii.

The Healing Power of Korean Letter Writing
Letters have been here all along, quietly influencing countless people in profound ways. They encourage, they bring happiness, while to some they even provide the will to keep on living.
Geulwoll is a Korean word for 'letter'. It is also the name of a small, unassuming letter shop, located on the third floor of a shabby building in the bustling heart of Seoul. People visit from all over to write and send letters to loved ones - and to strangers.
————-
Everyone likes letters. One of their charms is that we can't see what's inside right away: there's an anticipation in unsealing the mysteries held within.
In The Healing Power of Korean Letter Writing, Juhee Mun reveals the lost art of the handwritten letter: how it can ground and centre us, improve and repair our relationships with others and foster a culture of contemplation, reflection and togetherness.
This book is not about rules or right answers for writing letters. It is about embracing the power of what happens when you choose to carve out the time to write them.

Kitty Empire, ObserverOn December 31, 2020, the world was shocked to learn about the death of hip-hop legend MF DOOM. Born in London and raised in the suburban enclave of Long Beach, New York, Daniel Dumile Jr.''s love of cartoons and comic books would soon turn him into one of hip-hop''s most enigmatic, prolific, and influential figures.The Chronicles of DOOM: Unraveling Rap’s Masked Iconoclast recounts the rise, fall, redemption, and untimely demise of MF DOOM. Broken down into five sections: The Man, The Myth, The Mask, The Music, and The Legend, journalist S. H.

Jesusland
Using a blend of cultural criticism, humor, and personal memoir akin to Jia Tolentino’s Trick Mirror or Grace Perry’s The 2000s Made Me Gay, Joelle Kidd writes about her evangelical adolescence through the lens of Christian pop culture of the early 2000s, giving readers a peek into this odd subculture and insight into how evangelicalism’s growing popularity around the turn of the millennium has shaped culture and politics — including today’s far right.An empathetic, funny, and sharply critical collection of essays exploring the Christian pop culture of the 2000s and its influence on today’s politically powerful evangelicalism In 1999, after three years of secular living in Eastern Europe, Joelle Kidd moved back to Canada and was enrolled in the strange world of an evangelical Christian school. In Jesusland, Joelle writes about the Christian pop culture that she was suddenly immersed in, from perky girl bands to modest styling tips, and draws connections between this evangelical subculture and the mainstream, a tense yet reciprocal relationship that both disavows the secular while employing its media markers. But none of this was just about catchy songs: every abstinence quiz in a teen magazine was laying the foundation for what would become a conservative Christian movement that threatens women’s healthcare, attacks queer and trans rights, and drives present-day political division. Through nine incisive, honest, and emotional essays, Jesusland exposes the pop cultural machinations of evangelicalism, while giving voice to aughts-era Christian children and teens who are now adults looking back at their time, measuring the length of their skirts, and asking each other if their celebrity crush was Christian enough. With care and generosity, Jesusland shows us how the conservative evangelical movement became the global power it is today by exploring the pop culture that both reflected and shaped an entire generation of young people.
Ninety-Nine Words for Rain (and One for Sun)
Meet the néaladóirí (cloud-watchers) and réadóirí (stargazers) from our past who, without the luxury of Met Éireann at their disposal, observed birds, trees, animals, as well as markers on land and sea for signs of weather change. The sheer richness and variety of terms they amassed reveal the closeness with which they observed the world around them. Swallows flying low foretold rain. The heron’s behaviour offered many hints: Aimsir chrua thirim nuair a bhíonn an corr éisc suas in aghaidh srutha chun na sléibhte (when the heron flies upstream to the mountains the weather will be dry but rough). Fearthainn nuair a thagann sí an abhainn anuas (when she goes downstream, it will rain). Evoking countless sodden, shivery experiences on this Atlantic-swept island of ours, this beautifully illustrated gift book uses Irish words to grasp an almost-lost world through the wisdom stored in the Irish language.
The New Censorship
As we find ourselves in a time of democratic decay all over the world, with relentless attempts to undermine truth and facts and unprecedented technological tools to spread disinformation and incite violence, brave journalism is needed more than ever.
In The New Censorship esteemed academic, former journalist and activist Ayala Panievsky focuses on the unfortunate and unexpected mechanisms through which today's media has inadvertently amplified the anti-democratic movement that looms over our societies. From the birth of 'the strategic bias' to weaponising liberal norms against liberal democracy, the populist right has found a way to exercise a more effective and socially acceptable type of silencing and manipulation. Instead of banning stories, they spread flows of disinformation, which take hours and days to debunk. Instead of silencing, they shout louder. Instead of blue-pencilling, they employ fake users, bots, and outrageous smear campaigns to dominate the conversation. Heavy-handed censorship is unnecessary when one can manipulate people to censor themselves, or simply stop listening.
Based on cutting-edge empirical research, personal experience in newsrooms and parliament corridors and a decade of living under populism in power in Israel, Panievsky will not only explain how we got here but also lay out what we all could (and should) do to restart the conversation and protect our right to know.

Igazad van
Az esendő emberek mind azt képzelik, hogy náluk van az igazság. Pedig mi tudjuk: nekünk van igazunk...

Vajon mi mérgezi a kapcsolatainkat? A kultúrák különbségei, zsigeri reakcióink, a válságba jutott ideológiák, agyunk torzításai, netán az önzés, a hatalomvágy vagy a digitális kor technológiája? Kepes András nem kínál kész megoldásokat, inkább kérdez, vizsgálódik, töpreng. Önvizsgálatra ösztönöz minket, és arra, hogy fogalmazzuk meg saját válaszainkat, amelyek mentén megérthetjük egymást.

Fantasies of Hong Kong Disneyland
Fantasies of Hong Kong Disneyland: Attempted Indigenizations of Space, Labor, and Consumption examines the attempt to transplant Disney''s "happiest place on Earth" ethos to Hong Kong-with unhappy results. Focusing on the attempted localization/indigenization of this idea in a globalized transnational park, the book delves into the three-way dynamics of an American culture-corporation''s intentions, Hong Kong, China''s government investment and Hong Konger audience, and the Hong Kong Chinese locale. The triple actors introduce an especially complex case as two of the world''s most powerful entities, the nominally Communist state of China and corporate behemoth Disney, come together for a project in the third space of Hong Kong. The situation poses special challenges for Disney''s efforts to manage space, labor, and consumption to achieve local adaptation and business success.
Chasing the Dark
'A fascinating testimony to our nervous hunger to map the hazy, haunted territory at the edges of the rational... engrossing, entertaining and distinctly unsettling' Sarah Waters
'Shiversomely eerie... so impressive in its research and remarkable in all it uncovers' Tom Holland
Late one evening the telephone rings, and on the line is a stranger. They tell you that your nine-year-old son gave them your number. Your heart stops. You tell them that your son has been dead for almost 20 years. They know this, they say. He wants you to come and see him.
What do you do when reality begins to fray around you? Where do you go when science cannot explain your experiences? The Society for Psychical Research was founded in 1882 to tackle these very questions and to shine light on the shadowy world of the supernatural. Distinguished members have included prime ministers and Nobel Prize-winning scientists.
But the most prolific of all the SPR's paranormal investigators was a young British naval officer named Tony Cornell. A rationalist and a sceptic he became haunted by a wartime encounter in India that changed everything . Between 1950 and 2010 he became perhaps the world's most prolific investigator of psychic phenomena and paranormal events. Alongside his colleague, the psychologist Alan Gauld, they combined the roles of detectives, exorcists and psychiatrists, returning time and again to the unsettling spaces that exist on the very periphery of our tidy, rational lives: Ghosts. Poltergeists. Psychic powers.
Drawing on a previously untapped archive of Cornell's case files, which survive as a unique repository of encounters reported by ordinary people, Chasing the Dark is the compelling story of our relationship with the supernatural. What do these atmospheric and often chilling cases teach us about who we are, and the anxieties that consume us? And why do the dead still find ways to make themselves known?

Az összeomlás pedagógiája
„Nehéz idők jönnek. De ez nem jelenti azt, hogy nem tehetünk semmit. A még viszonylag normális időszakból hátralévő minden egyes nap alkalmat ad arra, hogy hálásak legyünk az életünkért, és lehetőséget nyújt a valódi cselekvésre. Ha őszinték vagyunk önmagunkkal, és a szívünk legmélyére tekintünk, akkor ráébredünk, hogy ez a küzdelem nem az emberiség megmentéséről, hanem a bátorságunkról szól, arról, hogy úgy szeressünk, ahogy eddig még soha.”
Carolyn Baker
Nem készítjük fel az ifjúságot arra, hogy megbirkózzanak a hosszú távú fenntarthatatlanság egyre súlyosbodó hatásaival. Nem osztjuk meg velük a teljes igazságot a világ állapotáról, arról, hogy a folyamat milyen irányba tart, ahogy nem tájékoztatjuk őket az ökológiai összeomlás valós következményeiről sem. A fiatalok már ma is tisztában vannak azzal, hogy milyen nehézségekkel teli jövő vár rájuk. A pedagógusoknak – ahelyett, hogy illúziókkal táplálnák a fiatalokat – érdemes lenne őszinteséggel, alázattal, együttérzéssel és segítőkészséggel fordulni feléjük, rávilágítva a helyzet valódi súlyosságára. Mindeközben türelmet tanúsítani a ránk váró küzdelemmel kapcsolatban, amellyel előbb-utóbb mindannyian szembesülünk, amikor megpróbálunk szembenézni a rideg valósággal.
A Holnapután könyvsorozat újabb köteteként megjelenő Az összeomlás pedagógiája segítséget nyújt abban, hogy megérthessük a körülöttünk kibontakozó változásokat, és megtaláljuk azokat a helyes módszereket, amelyekre támaszkodhatunk majd az előttünk álló kihívások kezelésében. Ha igaz, hogy a szeretet a legfontosabb érték, amely az oktatás különböző célkitűzései mögött rejlik, akkor a nevelés csupán annyiban lehet méltó tevékenység, amennyiben őszintén a fiatalok javát szolgálja. Másképpen fogalmazva, az oktatás valódi célja nem más, mint a fiatalabb nemzedék jólétének és boldogulásának támogatása.
