Light Panzers
This highly illustrated new study tells the full story of the German light Panzers in World War II.The light Panzers that equipped the first Panzer divisions were originally intended as training or stopgap machines, suitable only until the arrival of the better-armed and -armoured PzKpfw III and PzKpfw IV. However, despite their limitations, they ended up playing key roles in the victorious campaigns waged by the German Army from 1939 to 1942.This highly illustrated title describes the development and organizational history of the PzKpfw I, introduced in 1934, and the PzKpfw II, introduced in 1936. It explains how the annexation of German-speaking Sudetenland in 1938 and, subsequently, of Czechoslovakia itself delivered an unexpected bonus for the Panzerwaffe in the form of two Czech Army light tanks, introduced into German service as the PzKpfw 35(t) and PzKpfw 38(t). It goes on to cover the considerable operational service of these tanks in Poland, France and the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. From late 1941 onwards, they were withdrawn from front-line service but the chassis were used until the end of the war for self-propelled artillery and tank destroyers.German armour expert Thomas Anderson draws on archival material, after-action reports and rare photographs in this comprehensive study of the German light Panzers that played a key role in the early years of World War II.
On Air
An epic, decade-long reported history of National Public Radio that reveals the unlikely story of one of America’s most celebrated but least understood media empires.Founded in 1970, NPR is America’s most powerful broadcast news network. Despite being overshadowed by the larger and more glamorous PBS, public radio has long been home to shows such as All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and This American Life that captivate millions of listeners in homes, cars, and workplaces across the nation. NPR and its hosts are a cultural force and a trusted voice, and they have created a mode of journalism and storytelling that helps Americans understand the world in which we live. In On Air, a book fourteen years in the making, journalist Steve Oney tells the dramatic history of this institution, tracing the comings and goings of legendary on-air talents (Bob Edwards, Susan Stamberg, Ira Glass, Cokie Roberts, and many others) and the rise and fall and occasional rise again of brilliant and sometimes venal executives. It depicts how NPR created a medium for extraordinary journalism—in which reporters and producers use microphones as paintbrushes and the voices of people around the world as the soundtrack of stories both global and local. Featuring details on the controversial firing of Juan Williams, the sloppy dismissal of Bob Edwards, and a $230 million bequest by Joan B. Kroc, widow of the founder of McDonalds, On Air also chronicles NPR’s daring shift into the digital world and its early embrace of podcasting formats, establishing the network as a formidable media empire. Fascinating, revelatory, and irresistibly dishy, this is a riveting account of NPR’s unlikely launch, chaotic ascent, and ultimate triumph—a must-read for anyone interested in the history of public radio and its impact on American culture.
Losing a Kingdom, Gaining the World
Despite its many crises, especially in Western Europe, there are 1.3 billion Catholics in the world today. The Church remains a powerful but controversial institution.In Losing a Kingdom, Gaining the World, Ambrogio A. Caiani explores the epic history of the Roman Catholic Church. Throughout the early modern period, the Pope was a secular prince in central Italy. Catholicism was not merely a religion but also a political force to be reckoned with.After the French Revolution, the Church retreated into a fortress of unreason and denounced almost every aspect of modern life. The Pope proclaimed his infallibility; the cult of the Virgin Mary and her apparitions became articles of faith; the Vatican refused all accommodation with the modern state, until a disastrous series of concordats with fascist states in the 1930s.These dark days threatened the very existence of the Church. But as Catholicism lost its temporal power, it made significant spiritual strides and expanded across continents. Between 1700 and 1903, it lost a kingdom but gained the world.Ambitious and authoritative, this is an account of the Church’s fraught encounter with modernity in all its forms: from liberalism, socialism and democracy, to science, literature and the rise of secular culture.

Blitz Kids
Published to commemorate the 80th anniversary of VE Day''[The] stories are every bit as dramatic as those from the front lines and Barrett and Calvi have done an incredible job. Their poignant, page-turning book, filled with tears and joy, reminds us innocents always suffer'' Daily Express''The 80th anniversary of VE Day takes place on Thursday 8 May and inspirational new book Blitz Kids captures the stories of some of the people who lived through, and still remember, that period'' Sunday Express''Betty heard the scream of bombs falling and the terrifying thud of explosions. Suddenly, there was a deafening bang, and her mother was thrown across the shelter. For a moment everything was lit up by a blood-red light. Then they were plunged into darkness...''When the Second World War began, there were 10 million children living in Britain. Many were evacuated to the countryside, but others stayed behind and witnessed the Blitz close-up in cities around the UK.Blitz Kids tells the remarkable true stories of children who spent their nights in cold, cramped air-raid shelters, hearing the rumble of planes and the crash of bombs overhead. Many woke up in the morning to find their homes and schools destroyed, their favourite toys buried beneath rubble, their pets lost and, in some cases, their families shattered. Yet amid the turmoil and tears, they found a way to enjoy their childhoods, collecting steaming-hot shrapnel, turning bombed-out houses into adventure playgrounds, and chasing American GIs for chocolate and chewing gum.From headstrong East-Ender Kitty to quick-witted Liverpudlian Christopher - and little Doreen, who survived the devastation of Coventry - Blitz Kids brings together the moving true stories of a remarkable generation now passing into history.
Rise Above
Does life feel smaller than it used to? Does it seem that the people around you have taken a step back from doing hard things, preferring to stay in their comfort zone? In the era of TikTok as therapy, it’s tempting to see ourselves as damaged and powerless – defined by our past traumas, our emotions and the struggles we face. But it’s more important than ever to rise above the limiting beliefs and widespread anxiety that puts us in boxes, lowers our expectations and holds us back.In Rise Above, renowned psychologist Dr Scott Barry Kaufman unpacks the dangerous myths and misleading buzzwords swirling around the popular imagination. He reveals the truth about managing our emotions, the double-edged sword of self-esteem, the surprising gifts of sensitivity, and ultimately, the power each of us has to overcome challenges and to shape the course of our own lives.Packed with empathy, insight, humour and actionable solutions, this book will empower you to take control of your own your life and reach your full potential.

Velká malá Terezie, 2.vydání
40 krátkých úvah nad autentickými slovy Terezie z Lisieux – nad „už ano a ještě ne“ plnosti křesťanského života.
Terezie nabízí nemocnému světu, zmítanému strachem a úzkostí, terapii lásky a důvěry v Boha. Boří obraz Boha, kvůli němuž se lidé často odvracejí od víry. Terezie nás naopak zve, abychom navrátili evangelium do centra svého života a spojili svůj život s Bohem.

Jak dál po křtu dítěte
Jak můžou rodiče a kmotři pomoci dětem a dospívajícím s tím, aby důvěřovali Bohu a navázali vztah s Ježíšem Kristem?
Odpověď není jednoduchá. Celé dobrodružství ovšem začíná křtem a pokračuje. Křesťanství není kouzelný proutek, který by chránil člověka před omylem. Je to spíš velká opora, jež stojí na Boží lásce a věrnosti a na zkušenosti církve ze dvou tisíciletí dějin. Díky němu zakoušíme nezištnou lásku, kterou miluje Bůh, milosrdenství, které jinde takovou měrou nenajdeme, i lásku těch, kdo žijí z Boží lásky. Inspiruje nás, abychom neopláceli zlým za zlé, ale odpouštěli, abychom příliš nekalkulovali, ale nezištně rozdávali lásku, abychom žili bohatý život i v nesnázích.
Autor nedává univerzální recept, „jak na to“. Ukazuje na zásadní věci, na které je dobré dbát, aby dar křtu nebyl zbytečně zmařen. Součástí knížky je i užitečná příloha se základními texty.

Školské hodnotenie, skúšky a testy
Prvý slovenský výkladový slovník najdôležitejších pojmov z oblasti školského hodnotenia, skúšok a testov. Obsahuje 423 hesiel s výkladom, komentármi a praktickými odporúčaniami pre učiteľov základných a stredných škôl.
Nejde o vedecký text. Kniha je určená pedagógom, ktorých nezaujímajú terminologické nuansy a presné citácie, ale praktické odporúčania, ako postupovať pri hodnotení výkonov žiakov. Nájdu ich v komentároch k jednotlivým heslám.
Hodnotenie výkonov žiakov sa týka všetkých škôl, všetkých učiteľov, všetkých predmetov – patrí medzi kľúčové kompetencie učiteľa. Je preto prekvapujúce, že príslušná legislatíva je v zlom stave, že v rámci prípravy učiteľov je hodnoteniu venovaná nedostatočná pozornosť a že na školách vládne v tejto oblasti priveľká ľubovôľa. Aj preto prichádza kniha, ktorej ambíciou je v tejto téme „poupratovať“.
V obdobných slovníkoch sú heslá zvyčajne radené podľa abecedy. Je to praktické, keď chceme vyhľadať konkrétne heslo, ale má to aj nevýhody: takéto slovníky nemožno čítať ako bežnú knihu či učebnicu, pretože poradie hesiel je nelogické. Autor preto zvolil iný prístup: heslá sú rozdelené do 18 tematických kapitol a v rámci nich sú zoradené do zmysluplného poradia. Knihu tak možno čítať aj ako súvislý študijný text.
Az elengedés művészete
Az elengedés művészete az elmédben való rendrakásról szól. Arról, hogy többé ne a múlton rágódj, vagy egy olyan jövőn, amely lehet, hogy sosem következik be, hanem légy jelen a pillanatban, amelyre valódi befolyással bírsz.
Sokunk elméje egy zajos hely, pedig a legbiztonságosabb térnek kellene lennie. Állítsd helyre a belső békéd! Ha folyton idegeskedsz, agyalsz és képtelen vagy ellazulni, neked szól ez a könyv!
Nick Trenton felfedi, hogyan kezeld a belső kritikusodat és miként alakítsd át a belső világképedet. A könyv olyan témákat ölel fel, mint az önismeret, az elfogadás, a megbocsátás, a hála, a tudatos jelenlét, az együttérzés és az alkalmazkodókészség, illetve megmutatja, hogy mindezek miként segíthetik elő a belső béke és a céltudatosság érzésének kialakulását. A könyv ezenfelül az elengedéssel kapcsolatos gyakori mítoszokra és tévhitekre is kitér, például arra az elképzelésre, hogy az elengedés feladást vagy felejtést jelentene, és egy olyan árnyaltabb és támogatóbb nézőpontot kínál, amely egyaránt tiszteletben tartja a múltbeli, jelenbeli és jövőbeli énünket.
A kötet pszichológiailag bizonyított javaslatokat kínál arra vonatkozóan, miként lépj át az állandó rágódásból és agyalásból a cselekvésbe, bemutatva:
• az ítélkezésmentesség gyakorlását és az érzelmeid megfigyelését;
• hogyan kezeld a belső kritikusodat és alakítsd át a belső világképedet;
• az agyadban megbúvó, sürgetéssel és veszéllyel kapcsolatos mérgező hiedelmek feloldását;
• a szabadulást a mérgező emberektől, a határhúzás és a kötődésmentesség gyakorlását;
• az elengedés pszichológiai stratégiáit hatékony gyakorlatokkal;
• a tökéletesség iránti vágyad legyőzését és a kiválóság iránti vágyad felébresztését.
A kötet az érzelmi terhek elengedésével kapcsolatban újszerű nézőpontot kínál olvasói számára. Függetlenül attól, hogy egy korábbi kapcsolatod elengedésével küszködsz, vagy a negatív gondolati mintáidtól igyekszel megszabadulni, ez a könyv számodra kötelező olvasmány.
Vidět a být viděn
Vidět a být viděn: Vystupování z psychického útočiště je druhou u nás přeloženou knihou Johna Steinera (první monografií byla úspěšná Psychická útočiště: Patologické organizace u psychotických, neurotických a hraničních pacientů, Triton, 2018). Steiner v ní zkoumá ty situace v klinické práci, v nichž se pacient cítí ve slepé uličce a kdy hrozí selhání analytického procesu. Dochází k tomu v podmínkách opouštění ochrany psychického útočiště, v nichž musí čelit novým úzkostem a komplikacím.
Kniha je rozdělena do tří částí, které zahrnují například témata zahanbení, stud a ponížení, bezmoc, moc a dominance, truchlení, melancholie a nutkání k opakování. Jasné formulace a styl psaní, vycházející především z klinické práce, zprostředkují čtenáři hloubku autorova vhledu, jeho citlivost a skutečný zájem o pacienty. Steinerovo kreativní a integrační úsilí umožňuje nové pohledy, založené na předchozích příspěvcích psychoanalytiků včetně Freuda, Kleinové, Rosenfelda a Biona. Kniha jistě zaujme psychoanalytiky, klinické psychoterapeuty a všechny, kteří se zajímají o psychoanalýzu.
Čestný člen České psychoanalytické společnosti John Steiner je jednou z velkých osobností světové psychoanalýzy. Dlouhou dobu působil jako tréninkový a supervizní analytik Britské analytické společnosti, v současnosti stále superviduje, přednáší a píše. Steinerův přínos k psychoanalýze se odráží nejen v jeho publikacích, ale i v tom, že jeho koncepty, například „patologická organizace osobnosti“, „psychická útočiště“, „vystupování z psychického útočiště“, „vidět a být viděn“ a „interpretace zaměřené na pacienta a na analytika“, se staly běžnou součástí analytické terminologie. Kromě autorství do češtiny přeložených knih je editorem několika odborných publikací a autorem řady klinických prací publikovaných v odborném časopise IJPA. Jeho poslední kniha nese název Illusion, Disillusion, and Irony in Psychoanalysis (Routledge, 2020).

Undaunted Joy
Does joy just seem too difficult to come by these days? Does it seem irresponsible or naïve? Maybe you don''t feel like you can be joyful, don''t know how to, or don''t deserve to? In this collection of short essays on defiant joy, Shemaiah Gonzalez reflects on how she gradually learned to see joy not as an indulgence but as a necessity—a way of life and the fruit of faith. But her journey to joy was long. It had been so absent throughout much of her life that it felt foreign at first.Through her own stories, Gonzalez discovers along with you how joy is the fruit of knowing God. Like God, once you start looking for joy, you might start finding it everywhere. Like God, sometimes it initially feels unsafe."Perhaps these stories, of finding joy in laundry and Van Gogh''s paintings of sunflowers, in daydreaming, and even in the darkest of places, will allow you to see life anew. Perhaps you will, like me, no longer wait for the big things to happen but will find there is abundance today. Each day holds joy in the mundane and the magnificent—we just need to learn to see."Over the course of these 37 essays, Gonzalez, vulnerable and lively, will draw you into a new way of seeing that will revolutionize your everyday. It''s time to claim God''s goodness and share it with abandon, not in spite of the brokenness of the world, but because of it.It''s time to live joyously.

In Praise of Good Bookstores
From a devoted reader and lifelong bookseller, an eloquent and charming reflection on the singular importance of bookstoresDo we need bookstores in the twenty-first century? If so, what makes a good one? In this beautifully written book, Jeff Deutsch—the former director of Chicago’s Seminary Co-op Bookstores, one of the finest bookstores in the world—pays loving tribute to one of our most important and endangered civic institutions. He considers how qualities like space, time, abundance, and community find expression in a good bookstore. Along the way, he also predicts—perhaps audaciously—a future in which the bookstore not only endures, but realizes its highest aspirations.In exploring why good bookstores matter, Deutsch draws on his lifelong experience as a bookseller, but also his upbringing as an Orthodox Jew. This spiritual and cultural heritage instilled in him a reverence for reading, not as a means to a living, but as an essential part of a meaningful life. Central among Deutsch’s arguments for the necessity of bookstores is the incalculable value of browsing—since, when we are deep in the act of looking at the shelves, we move through space as though we are inside the mind itself, immersed in self-reflection.In the age of one-click shopping, this is no ordinary defense of bookstores, but rather an urgent account of why they are essential places of discovery, refuge, and fulfillment that enrich the communities that are lucky enough to have them.
How Russians Understand the New Russia
The issues that are the most and the least divisive in RussiaThe collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 created a new Russia, with new territorial boundaries and new political and economic systems. The hybrid political economy that emerged incorporated commitments to markets and democracy that were undermined by the state’s economic interventions and authoritarian restrictions. In this book, Paul Chaisty and Stephen Whitefield argue that the hybridity of the post-Soviet system provided a strong basis for the consolidation of Russian public opinion—and for the management of contestation so that it did not threaten the system itself. Drawing on almost thirty years of original public opinion research in Russia, Chaisty and Whitefield also find, however, that the territorial dimension of Russia’s postcommunist transformation has disrupted public support for the hybrid political economy. In particular, they trace the reopening of system-level disagreement between system supporters and system opponents to the nationalist turn in Russian politics that culminated in the 2014 annexation of Crimea and the reactivation of Soviet identities. How Russians Understand the New Russia provides the first longitudinal study of Russian public opinion on the system of political and economic power that replaced communism. It offers unique insights into how Russian citizens have adapted their views of the new Russia, identifying the issues that are the most—and the least—divisive. Chaisty and Whitefield track Russian public opinion on a broad range of policy questions, discuss the political importance of both voting and not voting and consider problems of nation-building and national identity. Finally, they weigh the impact of the Ukraine war on Russia’s hybrid system, and whether consolidation or further contestation is more likely.
Surviving Our Catastrophes
From the National Book Award winner, a powerful and timely rumination that ”cuts through the existential fog to reveal something like hope” (The Washington Post)
In this moving and ultimately hopeful meditation on the psychological aftermath of catastrophe, award-winning psychiatrist Robert Jay Lifton shows us how to cope with the lasting effects and legacy of the COVID-19 pandemic.
When the people of Hiroshima experienced the unspeakable horror of the atomic bombing, they responded by creating an activist “city of peace.” Survivors of the Nazi death camps took the lead in combating mass killing of any kind and converted their experience into art and literature that demonstrated the resilience of the human spirit. Drawing on the remarkably life-affirming responses of survivors of such atrocities, Lifton, “one of the world’s foremost thinkers on why we humans do such awful things to each other” (Bill Moyers), shows readers how we can carry on and live meaningful lives even in the face of the tragic and the absurd.
Now in paperback with a new epilogue by the author, Surviving Our Catastrophes offers compelling examples of “survivor power” and makes clear that we will not move forward by forcing the pandemic into the rearview mirror. Instead, we must truly reckon with COVID-19’s effects on ourselves and society—and find individual and collective forms of renewal.
The Fiery Spirits
<i>The Fiery Spirits</i> tells the story of the MPs in parliament and the protestors in the streets who played a pivotal role in the English Civil Wars. Through their stories, John Rees reveals the hidden history of the republicans who brought a desperate nation to the brink of revolution.<br><br>At the start of the English Civil Wars, very few could have imagined that the country would soon become a republic. Practically alone in his republicanism was Henry Marten, MP and future regicide. But he soon gathered around him a group of radical Parliamentarians that included William Strode, the parliamentary firebrand, Alexander Rigby, the formidable soldier, and Sir Peter Wentworth, descendant of a long line of opponents of monarchy. They formed the nucleus of a group that allied itself to a popular movement outside parliament to defeat the king politically and militarily.<br><br>In <i>The Fiery Spirits</i>, Rees tells how Marten and his radical allies overcame both moderate Parliamentarians and Royalists to change the face of England forever, establishing a kingdom without a crown.
