Brief Answers to the Big Questions (Illustrated Edition)
The million-copy bestseller now illustrated with over 200 full-colour images, illuminating the fascinating science of our universe like never before.
'A beautiful book by a brilliant mind' DAILY TELEGRAPH
'The best, most mind-bending sort of physics' THE TIMES
The world-famous cosmologist and #1 bestselling author of A Brief History of Time leaves us with his final thoughts on the universe's biggest questions in this brilliant posthumous work.
Is there a God?
How did it all begin?
Can we predict the future?
What is inside a black hole?
Is there other intelligent life in the universe?
Will artificial intelligence outsmart us?
How do we shape the future?
Will we survive on Earth?
Should we colonise space?
Is time travel possible?
Throughout his extraordinary career, Stephen Hawking expanded our understanding of the universe and unravelled some of its greatest mysteries. But even as his theoretical work on black holes, imaginary time and multiple histories took his mind to the furthest reaches of space, Hawking always believed that science could also be used to fix the problems on our planet.
And now, as we face potentially catastrophic changes here on Earth - from climate change to dwindling natural resources to the threat of artificial super-intelligence - Stephen Hawking turns his attention to the most urgent issues for humankind.
Wide-ranging, intellectually stimulating, passionately argued, and infused with his characteristic humour, Brief Answers to the Big Questions, the final book from one of the greatest minds in history, is a personal view on the challenges we face as a human race, and where we, as a planet, are heading next.
Speed
Prepare to view the world through a new lens - SPEED - a groundbreaking exploration that challenges your perceptions of life's driving force, from the internationally bestselling author
'There is no author whose books I look forward to more' Bill Gates
'There is perhaps no other academic who paints pictures with numbers like Smil' Guardian
In a world that feels like it's moving faster than ever, Smil examines how our relentless pursuit of speed - in areas such as production, travel and communication - shapes not only our technological landscape but also our social and environmental realities. And through engaging anecdotes and striking statistics, Smil challenges the assumption that faster is always better.
He invites readers to reconsider the implications of our collective obsession with speed, and its intricate relationship with nature and innovation. For example, he highlights the surprising fact that erosion can actually accelerate mountain growth, and he points out that the rapid adoption of mobile phones - achieving 90 per cent penetration in just nineteen years - reflects historical patterns of technological adoption, suggesting that our world may not be moving significantly faster than in the past.
Whether exploring the tiny mites that can traverse 300 times their body length in a second or the societal impacts of high-frequency trading, Speed invites readers to engage in a more balanced conversation about the role of speed in our lives, in an age defined by haste.
The Chauvinist Threat
Many attempts have been made to explain Russia’s fateful decision to invade Ukraine, but the distinguished political scientist Sabine Fischer argues that we can only fully understand Russia’s foreign policy and its aggressive war of annihilation against Ukraine by putting Russian chauvinism at the heart of our analysis. Fischer argues that Putin’s regime has long been driven by a mixture of aggressive nationalism, sexism and autocracy: taken together, these three elements constitute the chauvinist threat that stems from Moscow and that led to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. An internationally renowned expert on Russia and Eastern Europe with decades of experience in EU–Russia relations, Fischer enriches her analysis with observations drawn from her own experiences in Russia and Eastern Europe over the past thirty years, including conversations with senior Russian politicians and colleagues shortly before and after the invasion. She also shows that the chauvinist threat stemming from Moscow is a threat not just to Ukraine but also to liberal democracy and the rules-based world order, and she outlines steps that liberal democracies should take to counter this danger. Using a feminist lens and bringing into sharp focus the sexism of Putin’s regime and its explosive interaction with nationalism and autocracy, this book makes an important contribution to understanding both the brutal war in Ukraine and the serious threats faced by all liberal democracies today.
Freedom from Fear
Between 1929 and 1945, two great travails were visited upon the American people: the Great Depression and World War II. Freedom from Fear tells the story of how Americans endured, and eventually prevailed, in the face of those unprecedented calamities.The Depression was both a disaster and an opportunity. As David Kennedy vividly demonstrates, the economic crisis of the 1930s was far more than a simple reaction to the alleged excesses of the 1920s. For more than a century before 1929, America''s unbridled industrial revolution had gyrated through repeated boom and bust cycles, wastefullly consuming capital and inflicting untold misery on city and countryside alike. Nor was the fabled prosperity of the 1920s as uniformly shared ag legend portrays. Countless Americans, especially if they were farmers, African Americans, or recent immigrants, eked out thread bare lives on the margins of national life. For them the Depression was but another of the ordeals of fear and insecurity with which they were sadly familiar.Franklin Roosevelt''s New Deal wrung from the trauma of the 1930s a lasting legacy of economic and social reform, in cluding the Social Security Act, new banking and financial laws, regulatory legistlation, and new opportunities for organized labour. Taken together, those reforms gave a measure of security to millons of Americans who had never had much of it, and with a fresh sense of having a stake in their country.Freedom from Fear tells the story of the New Deal''s achievments, without slighting its shortcomings, contraditions and failures. It is a story rinch in drama and peopled with unforgettable personalities, including the incandescent but enigmatic figure of Roosevelt himself.Even as the New Deal was coping with the Depression, a still more fearsome menace was developing abroad--Hitler''s thirst for war in Europe, coupled with the imperial ambitions of Japan in Asia. The same generation of Americans who battled the Depression evenutally had to shoulder the arms in another conflict that wreaked world wide destruction, ushered in the nuclear age and forever changed their own way of life and their country''s relationship to the rest of the world. Freedom from Fear explains how the nation agonized over its role in World War II, how it fought the war, why the United States won, and why the consequences of victory were sometimes sweet, sometimes ironic. In a compelling narrative, Kenney analyses the determinants of American strategy, the painful choices faced by commanders and statesmen, and the agonies inflicted on the millions of ordinary Americans who were compelled to swallow their fears and face battle as best they could.Freedom from Fear is a comprehensive and colourful account of the most convulsive period in American history, excepting only the Civil War - a period that formed the crucible in which modern America was formed.
Život faráře z Arsu
Objevit pod nánosem legendy živého člověka – to bylo záměrem otce Marca Joulina, který se zjevně zdařil. Autor vychází z dobových pramenů obsahujících svědectví lidí, kteří byli J. M. Vianneyovi nejblíž. Nabízí nejen obraz neutěšeného stavu církve v porevoluční Francii, ale i plastické vykreslení povahy a duchovního zrání faráře z Arsu, jeho spirituality a díla, byť jeho největší dílo – ovoce v lidských duších – zůstává očím skryté. Životopis je prokládán sériemi inspirativních výroků světce, což nám dovoluje ještě lépe nahlédnout do vzácné duše kněze, z jehož zapadlého působiště, respektive zpovědnice, se stalo jedno z nejvyhlášenějších poutních míst Francie.
Kaiserovi orli 3
Třetí díl obrazově bohatě vypravených Kaiserových orlů přibližuje mimo jiné osudy největšího stíhacího esa 1. světové války Manfreda von Richthofen, dále nejúspěšnějších es německého námořního letectva a v neposlední řadě i německého útočníka na pozorovací balóny.
How to Be Selfish
IT'S TIME TO START LIVING LIKE YOU MATTER TOO
In How to Be Selfish, chartered psychologist Suzy Reading challenges everything we've learnt about selflessness, and dispels the widely accepted myths about what it is to be 'selfish'.
Drawing on somatic therapy, neuroscience and psychology, alongside highly effective coaching tools and techniques, Suzy presents seven steps to guide you towards reclaiming your peace and your power. We can only become calmer, stronger, well-rested people by prioritising ourselves and also allowing others to fill up our cup. It is time to receive!
By reclaiming the right to self and honing the skills of self-advocacy, we deepen the authenticity of our bonds, we protect the energy to take care of others and also tend to our own needs and ambitions without depletion.
Understanding the true glory of being able to embrace 'selfishness' is our opportunity to break the cycle of stress and toxic productivity, disrupt patriarchal pressure and transform the way we live, love, work and parent.
How to Live and Die
In this authoritative account of one of the most important practices in Tibetan Buddhism, Lama Zopa shows us how facing the reality of death and impermanence can transform and enrich our life.What death is, how we die, what minds we need at death and what happens after death—only by knowing about death and rebirth can we actually fully understand what life is and so learn how to live fully. —Lama Zopa Rinpoche There is arguably no truth more foundational to Buddhism than this: everything is impermanent. We can see this in the world all around us; old systems break down, relationships change. Death comes for those we love and, inevitably, for us. In this book, the late, beloved teacher Lama Zopa Rinpoche walks us through the traditional, revelatory practices of meditating on the fact of impermanence and even—especially—on death itself. Rather than shy away from this reality, we look straight at it, and thus we learn not only how to not fear death, but how to live.

O podstatných veciach
Potrebujeme vo svojej osobnej modlitbe nájsť spôsob, ktorý je len náš, v ktorom nachádzame život, útechu, povzbudenie. Toto treba zušľachťovať, nie splašiť sa a v modlitbe chcieť iba niečo vyriešiť. Treba najprv hľadať zakorenenie v Bohu. Potom môžeme byť Božími služobníkmi, modliť sa za druhých. Potom si môžeme uvedomiť, aká autorita viery je v tom, kým sme v Kristovi,"píše v knižke, ktorú držíte v rukách, kňaz Dušan Lukáč. Pútavým spôsobom rozpráva o podstatných veciach v živote kresťana a o tom, ako si vytvoriť priestor, aby naša viera rástla.

Kežmarok v zápase storočí - II. diel
Zápas o slobodu, česť i holý život pokračuje. Na tróne sa postupne striedajú panovníci, ktorí ovládajú hrad i mesto. Hrdosť a práva jeho obyvateľov však ovládnuť nedokážu. Ľudia horko-ťažko vzdorujú vladárskym manierom, porušené sľuby ich oberajú o vízie na lepšiu budúcnosť. Postupne sa dostávajú do rúk muža s pochybnou minulosťou, ktorý sa nemieni Kežmarku len-tak vzdať. Akoby nebolo dosť tých vojen, mesto zasiahne ďalšia s neďalekou Levočou. Vo víre nenávisti a rinčiacich zbraní sa zrodí zakázaná láska mladých ľudí zo znepriatelených táborov. Prinesú títo zaľúbenci zmierenie medzi rozvášnené davy? Podarí sa mešťanom ubrániť ich milované mesto?
Druhý diel beletrizovaných dejín Kežmarku od spisovateľky a historičky Nory Baráthovej opisuje neľahké osudy ľudí v 16. storočí. Autorka neprináša vymyslené príbehy alebo literatúru faktu, ale nový typ literatúry – beletrizované dejiny na základe skutočných príbehov, niekedy až neuveriteľných, ale pravdivých.
