The Quantum Connection
What if the world isn’t quite what we’ve been taught to believe? In The Quantum Connection, you’re invited on a compelling journey through science, philosophy, mysticism and mind. Drawing on insights from quantum mechanics, psychology, metaphysics and the thought traditions of the East, the author invites the reader to consider the richness of the human experience from a new, more expansive perspective. A primer for anyone searching for a deeper understanding of the human condition, The Quantum Connection challenges the conventional scientific worldview and considers alternative ways in which we might better understand both ourselves and our place in the cosmos. Whether you’re a curious idealist, a middle-aged misanthrope, a spiritual seeker or simply someone who senses that something doesn’t quite add up in the dominant narrative, The Quantum Connection offers a thoughtful examination of the deeper forces at play in our experience of reality. It’s a bridge between East and West, science and spirit, and an invitation to reflect on what it truly means to be alive, to fully exist in the here and now…
Starting Strong
Starting Strong: Your First Steps into Animal-Assisted Interventions is a practical, inspiring guide for anyone curious about working alongside animals to support people’s wellbeing. Whether you are a teacher, therapist, youth worker or simply someone drawn to the power of human–animal connection, this book will help you take your first confident steps into the world of Animal-Assisted Interventions (AAI). Written in a warm, down-to-earth voice by Charlotte Williams, a frontline practitioner and founder of a respected UK-based therapeutic organisation, Starting Strong shares hard-earned insights, case examples and powerful moments of growth, failure and learning. It offers clear guidance on the why, how and what of AAI, from ethical foundations to practical session ideas, without overwhelming jargon or unrealistic promises. This is not a clinical textbook or a feel-good memoir. It is a toolkit for action. Readers will come away with a deeper understanding of what AAI really involves, how to get started safely and ethically, and how to reflect, grow and stay grounded as they develop their own approach. If you believe animals have something important to offer in support of human healing and connection, this book will help you turn that belief into practice.

Od deníků k výzkumu
Kdo se bojí metodologických kurzů? Všichni! Bojí se jich studující, protože je vnímají jako náročné a nevidí v nich smysl. Bojí se jich i vyučující, protože koho by bavilo učit něco, co ti, které to mají naučit, považují za hrozné a neužitečné.
Autorky této knihy se rozhodly současnou situaci změnit a představují inovativní přístup k výuce metodologie, který staví na deníkových metodách a dalších interaktivních technikách. Kniha nabízí praktický návod na aktivity, díky nimž lze lépe porozumět principům výzkumu v sociálních vědách. Cvičení s jednoduchým a přístupným zadáním lze využít nejen při malých výzkumných sondách zaměřených na profesní problémy, ale také jako nástroj pro hlubší reflexi vlastního života a témat, která vás zajímají. Publikace se osvědčí i při psaní diplomových prací nebo přípravě jiných výzkumných projektů.
Kniha obsahuje:
14 interaktivních cvičení do výuky,
4 cvičení pro diplomové semináře,
5 tipů pro psaní závěrečných prací,
11 deníkových cvičení,
6 rozhovorů o tom, jak může vedení deníku vypadat.
Páni z Hradce a Slavatové z Chlumu a Košumberka
Páni z Hradce nebo-li také „páni zlaté růže“ patří k nejstarším a nejvýznamnějším českým a moravským panským rodům. Jejich historie se začala psát již na konci 12. století. Z jeho řad vzešla řada úspěšných politiků a diplomatů (Jindřich I. z Hradce, Adam I., Zachariáš nebo Adam II.) a jejich odkazem jsou např. zámky Jindřichův Hradec a Telč nebo hrad Roštejn.
Managing Decline
Thirty-one men held the position of Foreign Secretary during the twentieth century, usually – though not invariably – being one of the two or three most significant figures in Cabinet. This book provides profiles for each of them, both as standalone essays and as part of the wider story of how the holders of the office have developed from being landed grandees to run-of-the-mill politicians; from largely independent practitioners of foreign policy to playing a supporting role behind their Prime Ministers; and how they oversaw Britain’s decline from the preeminent global superpower to a second-tier state with sharply circumscribed freedom of action. The book will examine the journey from Henry Charles Keith Petty-Fitzmaurice, 5th Marquess of Lansdowne, scion of an ancient family, through to Robin Cook, grandson of a miner.
Ať vám visí na rtech
Jeden z nejlepších ostorytellerů současnosti vás přesvědčí, že schopnost vyprávět není vrozený dar, ale dovednost, kterou může rozvíjet každý. Matthew Dicks vás provede osvědčenou metodou, díky níž dokážete z obyčejných situací vytěžit silné i vtipné příběhy a poutavě je odvyprávět tak, že je posluchači prožijí společně s vámi. Když si jeho postup osvojíte, zlepší to nejen vaši komunikaci, ale taky vztahy a sebevědomí.
V knize se mimo jiné dozvíte
- Dobrý příběh nemusí být výjimečný – i běžné situace se dají podat tak, že zaujmou, dojmou nebo rozesmějí.
- O pozornosti nerozhoduje délka ani téma: jde o tempo, napětí a přesně mířenou pointu.
- Napětí se nebuduje vysvětlováním, ale přesně dávkovaným mlčením.
- Nejsilnější moment často trvá jen pár vteřin – a všechno před ním mu musíte podřídit.
- Když víte, co vynechat, začne vaše vyprávění působit lehčeji, jistěji a přirozeněji.

Global Governance Under Fire
How international organizations can combat populist opposition—and the implications for institutional resilience, legitimacy, and accountabilityPopulist leaders around the world increasingly reject international organizations, decrying them as constraints on state power and rallying followers against the “global elite” who run them. These institutions—painstakingly built through decades of negotiation and multilateral cooperation—are often seen as passive bystanders, unable or unwilling to push back. In Global Governance Under Fire, Allison Carnegie and Richard Clark challenge this view, arguing that international organizations are, in fact, strategic agents with the tools to resist populist pressures. Offering fresh theoretical insights and original empirical analysis, they investigate how these institutions fight back and how their defensive strategies are reshaping global governance. Using a multimethod approach that draws on novel data and qualitative evidence, Carnegie and Clark identify four key strategies that international organizations employ both to appease and to sideline populists and their constituents. They find that while these strategies help fortify global governance against populist opposition, they may also produce unintended consequences, potentially eroding institutional legitimacy and fueling further resistance. A timely and compelling account, the book provides a crucial roadmap for understanding—and safeguarding—the global order.
Jews and the Italian Left
Alessandra Tarquini, an expert in Italian Fascism, untangles the complicated relationship between the Italian Left and Jews since the late nineteenth century. Due largely to indifference, and sometimes to antisemitism, Italian leftists consistently overlooked Jews in their visions for a collectivist future. Yet, from the birth of the Socialist Party in 1892 until 1992, when the heirs of the Marxist tradition dispersed or set out on a new path, questions continually arose in revolutionary efforts to remake the Italian state: Should Jews be seen as oppressed, and therefore welcome to participate in the struggle that would lead to the advent of a new civilization? Or might they hinder the realization of socialism because of their attachment to a religious identity? Tarquini’s research fills an important lacuna by analyzing the antisemitism of twentieth-century socialist movements. Crucially, however, Tarquini makes important distinctions between antisemitism on the Italian Left and Right, and identifies the relationship between leftism and antisemitism as a distinct formation.
How to AI
AI is nothing to be afraid of.
After all, AI is merely software.
It's great at some things and (at least right now) terrible at others. But for workers who take time to experiment with AI and develop expertise, AI will make them more productive and more creative, saving them time, giving them job security, and boosting their income.
In How to AI, Wall Street Journal columnist Christopher Mims introduces readers to people just like them who are at the forefront of using AI in the world of work. Imagine a freelance lawyer who suddenly has a whip-smart assistant to help her nail every deposition. Or a family-run construction company whose new software tool is automating construction bids that used to eat up hundreds of hours.
But even as half a billion people around the world have leapt at the chance to use ChatGPT and other tools, millions of us have stayed on the sidelines. Are you one of them? Maybe you feel you should be using AI tools, but you don't know where to begin. Or maybe you love AI but find yourself struggling to get your co-workers or employees on board. In How to AI, Mims teaches readers twenty-four simple but eye-opening "laws" of AI and how we should approach it, including:
• AI is an assistant, not a replacement.
• AI isn't creative, but it can help you be.
• Give AI your least favorite things to do.
• AI can't create finished products, but it's great at prototypes.
Animated by the wit and brilliant explanatory power that have earned Mims's Wall Street Journal columns a devoted following, How to AI will prepare readers to become a part of the AI revolution-and, most importantly, arm them with the tools to make it work for them.
The Islands and the Stars
The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is among the six largest national space agencies in the world, along with China's CNSA, US's NASA, and Russia's Roscosmos. JAXA's budget is more than $1 billion USD—bigger than France or Germany individually, and more than that of Italy, India, Canada, and the UK combined. And yet, Japan's significant contributions have largely been absent in the history of space exploration, and space exploration largely absent in the history of technology in Japan. The Islands and the Stars corrects this conspicuous oversight. Through meticulous archival research in Japanese and anglophone archives, Subodhana Wijeyeratne examines the history of Japan's space exploration efforts over nearly a century. Wijeyeratne traces the evolution of Japan's space program from its early origins in the 1920s, through the postwar period of rapid technological innovation, to the consolidation of its various institutional elements into JAXA in 2003. He situates Japan's space programs within the broader history of the country's postwar recovery, economic growth, and cultural identity, while also considering their place within global trends in space exploration. Through this narrative, Wijeyeratne not only illuminates Japan's centrality to the global history of science and technology, but also offers insights into the future of global space exploration, emphasizing the importance of diverse voices and perspectives in the quest to understand our place in the cosmos.
World Politics
World Politics: A Critical Introduction to International Relations offers an engaging and accessible exploration of critical theories in international relations. Drawing on a rich array of narratives and perspectives, it provides a systematic introduction to feminist, queer, decolonial, and other critical approaches. The book examines how politics in the 20th and 21st centuries have been instrumental in creating, shaping, and perpetuating global hierarchies of power and status. It critically analyses how the Eurocentrism embedded in the international system is the result of deliberate, often violent, political actions aimed at establishing world order. These actions continue to influence daily lives and shape societies in profound ways. Complete with practical examples, case studies, and vignettes, this textbook is an essential resource for students seeking to decolonise, feminise, and integrate a broader range of critical perspectives into their study of international relations, history and politics.
The Global Casino
The global market in money - housed in the offshore 'shadow' banking system - holds $217 trillion in financial assets and operates beyond the reach of any nation's taxman. Asset managers, private equity firms, and pension and sovereign wealth funds scoop up the world's savings for investment and manage them as they choose, unaccountable to politicians or the citizens who elect them. In this brilliant, accessible and incisive introduction to the murky world of globalized finance, Ann Pettifor links the activities of remote mobile financial markets to both the cost-of-living and climate crises. In an insane global casino, bankers are gambling with our future. When we foot the bill, no one but a few economists understands what has happened. The result is volatile, unpredictable and uncontrollable speculation in global commodities, pension, energy, and housing. Pettifor argues that societies and governments can take back control of the global financial system. We have done it before and can do it again. Indeed, it is imperative that we do so if we are to manage the twin threats of climate breakdown and biosphere collapse.
George Templeton Strong: Civil War Diaries (LOA #396)
Based on the original manuscripts, this new annotated edition vividly captures the impact of the nation''s worst conflict on the Northern home front. George Templeton Strong (1820-1875) was perhaps the most trenchant civilian observer of the experience of the Civil War in the North. His diary, alternating between despair and exultation and punctuated by crises and explosive episodes, unfolds like a brilliant historical novel. Strong was particularly attuned to the shifting moods in the North, to what he called ''the great mass of selfishness, frivolity, invincible prejudice and indifference to national life'' that hampered the Union war effort. His eyewitness accounts - whether of the 1863 Draft Riots, field hospitals teeming with wounded men, or his meetings with leaders such as Grant and Lincoln - are remarkably vivid and suffused with novelistic detail. And while Strong''s reflections on the war and the political situation are valuable because they often reflect ''the pulse of public opinion'' in the North, as the historian James M. McPherson writes, they also reveal the singular intelligence of an extraordinary writer whose views - above all toward President Lincoln - evolved over the course of the war. Carefully selected and rigorously faithful to Strong''s handwritten diaries, this Library of America edition presents an entirely new transcription of Strong''s text, superseding the only previous version, published in 1952 and now long out of print.

Texty k dekonstrukci. Práce z let 1967–1972
Je-li Derridova diferance zároveň odstupem, spacializací, a odkladem, temporalizací, pak nám sama nabízí způsob, jak po letech číst jeho rané texty, jejichž výbor se českým čtenářům dostal do rukou poprvé v roce 1993. Znovu a znovu nás vtahují do hry, která není o nic méně podivná a podivuhodná než dřív, neboť význam se při ní rodí z diferencí, trhlin v prostoru i čase, které rozrušují zdánlivě pevnou a kompaktní tkáň našeho světa a jazyka. Dekonstrukce je nevyhnutelným krokem k tomu, abychom se dokázali znovu stvořit. Podobni plavcům ve studené vodě se noříme do živlu, jenž je nám cizí, abychom se stali jinými, aniž bychom se rozpadli nebo rozpustili.
