Volá ma po mene
Boh ťa pozná. Volá ťa po mene. Zamysli sa nad tým – Boh, ktorý drží v rukách všetko, čo existuje, pozná práve teba. Má pre teba jedinečné povolanie a dal ti všetko, čo potrebuješ, aby si ho naplnil/-a. Ale ruku na srdce – ako často na to zabúdaš? Ako často žiješ v pochybnostiach, strachu a pocite, že na to nemáš? Táto kniha je pozvaním ku zmene. Sto zamyslení, ktoré ti otvoria oči pre autoritu a moc, ktorú ti Boh dal. Nie preto, aby si sa cítil/-a lepšie na chvíľu – ale aby si mohol/mohla žiť odvážne, prekonávať prekážky a stať sa tým, kým ťa Boh stvoril. Ježiš nám ukázal, ako na to. V každom slove, ktoré povedal. V každom zázraku, ktorý vykonal. V celom svojom živote nám odhalil Božie srdce, myseľ aj dušu. Je naším vzorom – nie vzdialeným ideálom, ale živou cestou, po ktorej môžeme kráčať. Tieto zamyslenia ti pomôžu: hlbšie pochopiť, aký je Boh a aký/aká si ty v jeho očiach, získať duchovnú múdrosť, ktorá ťa premieňa zvnútra, pripraviť sa na mocné vyznania, zakorenené v Božích prísľuboch. Každé vyznanie v tejto knihe je pravdivé. Je založené na Kristovom diele vykúpenia a potvrdené jeho krvou. Keď ich vyslovuješ s vierou, niečo sa deje – v tebe aj okolo teba. Zastav sa. Čítaj. Rozjímaj. A potom nahlas vyhlasuj, kým si. Pretože slová, ktoré vyslovujeme, majú moc. Slová, ktoré vyslovujeme, oslavujú Boha, a jeho slovo sa k nemu nikdy nevráti bez výsledkov, ktoré ho vyvyšujú (Iz 55, 10–11). Si pripravenýú-á objaviť, kým naozaj si?

Members Behaving Badly
*A DAILY MAIL BOOK OF THE WEEK An alternative history of Britain through the scandalous stories of 52 MPs who behaved very badly indeed…‘Funny, eye-opening and jaw-dropping.’ CHARLIE HIGSON‘[A] lively … thoroughly entertaining and novel history of the House of Commons.’ COUNTRY LIFE Over the centuries, the House of Commons has been full of MPs standing up against tyranny; remarkable people doing remarkable things for the good of all. Yet there have been just as many cheats and liars who have played games, played the markets and played the people who put their trust in them. Members Behaving Badly tells the story of our nation from 1603 to 1945 through 52 of these parliamentary villains: abusers, kidnappers and murderers, violent men doing violent deeds, often using parliament as a front and excuse. These are the MPs who made history – for all the wrong reasons. There’s rake and poet Sir Charles Sedley, whose illicit partying while sozzled and stark naked on a tavern balcony caused a sensation even in Restoration London; the stock-jobbing, flip-flopping chancellor of the Exchequer, Charles Townshend, who proposed taxes that sparked a revolution; David Lloyd George, Britain’s saviour during the First World War, but whose avarice, corruption and abuse of honours ruined his political party forever; and many more. ___‘Thoroughly entertaining… Full of the woeful and riotous tales of the many men who have disgraced the benches of Westminster.’ Jonathan Healey, author of The Blazing World‘Kilroy’s storytelling is brimming with detail, sprinkled throughout with wit and humour.’ Kate Vigurs, author of Mission France‘A riot of malfeasance and misbehaviour’ Roger Moorhouse, author of Wolfpack
Eyes and Ears
This essential primary-source reader brings together documents collected over decades of research into security agency tradecraft and Chinese Cold War-era human intelligence. Michael Schoenhals' expert translation of the texts teases out meanings from memoranda, decodes marginal notes from senior officers, and unpacks the hastily scribbled communications of covert human assets. Together, these sources trace the resilience of covert human intelligence as an institution, even when faced with revelations of major misconduct and calls for its reform. With editorial introductions providing valuable context, this collection offers an informed interpretation of the domestic recruitment and running of agents that sheds critical new light on Chinese security agencies' intelligence gathering operations and capacity building during the Cold War.
Kapitoly z dejín habsburskej monarchie v ranom novoveku (viacjazyčný zborník)
Habsburgovci a ich monarchia na dlhé stáročia spojili osudy obyvateľov Uhorska, českých krajín, rakúskych krajín, Chorvátska i veľkej časti Poľska. Na teritóriu monarchie vznikla jedinečná viacjazyčná a viackonfesionálna kultúra, ktorá žije dodnes v potomkoch ich vtedajších obyvateľov, v ich mentalite, každodennom správaní i kultúrnom vkuse bez toho, aby sa dokázali dohovoriť spoločným jazykom. Cieľom autorov jednotlivých príspevkov tohto zborníka bolo priblíženie kľúčových udalosti prvých storočí existencie habsburskej monarchie, geopolitického celku, ktorý sa takto v priebehu dejín nikdy nevolal. Spolu s ním sa na javisko dejín dostala aj dynastia Habsburgovcov. Habsburgovci a ich „súštátie“ zohrali v priebehu štyroch storočí významnú úlohu vo všetkých dôležitých udalostiach i procesoch vo vývine európskeho kontinentu. Ich účinkovanie je dodnes hodnotené pozitívne, negatívne i kontroverzne (napr. zastavenie osmanskej expanzie na jedneja násilnú rekapituláciu na druhom konci spektra).
Zborník obsahuje príspevky v slovenčine, češtine, maďarčine aj v nemčine.
Enemy of the State
For much of the twentieth century, relations between Britain and the Soviet Union were defined by mutual hostility and distrust. From the aftermath of the Bolshevik Revolution until the last days of the Cold War, the British establishment was greatly concerned about the threat of Soviet-inspired subversion and secretly monitored thousands of citizens because of their real or perceived links to communism, the Soviet Union, or both. Enemy of the State reveals the story of how Britain''s intelligence services watched individuals on the grounds of protecting democracy. Using phone taps, hidden microphones, mail interception and covert break-ins, this covert surveillance led them to investigate, amongst others, trade unionists, scientists, politicians, anti-nuclear protesters, and those campaigning against apartheid. The culture of secrecy permeating British institutions has meant that the extent of the activities of British security and intelligence establishments has often been unknown. Drawing on files of the British government and intelligence agencies, Oliver Price argues that whilst communism had little impact on British politics, the fear of it led to the widespread monitoring of political and protest groups in Britain. Britain was long considered a country in which so-called ''political policing'' and the surveillance of civilians was resisted. As Enemy of the State shows, the events of the twentieth century reshaped official attitudes and normalised widespread surveillance.

Cabo Verde and the Creole South Atlantic
The first general history of the archipelago available in English, set within a broader regional, oceanic and global tapestry.The Cabo Verde Islands are now a popular tourist destination but, guide books apart, there is little in print in English that covers their history and culture. This book offers a readable account not only of the islands’ past, but also of their place in the wider story of the South Atlantic’s Portuguese-speaking communities.First settled in the fifteenth century, the inhabitants of Cabo Verde were of diverse origins. Some came from Portugal, others arrived as slaves from mainland Africa, and a third element comprised Jewish exiles from the Iberian Peninsula. From the earliest days, the islanders developed a mixed Creole culture with its own Creole Portuguese language. They had close relations with people of the upper Guinea coast, where many of them settled, and with the Guinea islands. Meanwhile the archipelago became a hub of the Atlantic slave trade.Cabo Verde has also had a strategic importance— its history has to be seen in a global context, broader than simply that of the Portuguese imperial story. Malyn Newitt also fills a major gap in the bibliography of Atlantic history, slavery and the history of the African diaspora in the Atlantic.
Konfesionálny vývin Uhorska v ranom novoveku
Pre Uhorské kráľovstvo bol raný novovek, no najmä jeho prvé dve desaťročia, osobitne ťažkou epochou. Po tragickej bitke pri Moháči si Osmani vybudovali v krajine vlastnú dŕžavu a z iba nedávno prekvitajúcej stredoeurópskej mocnosti sa stalo bojisko, nárazníkový priestor, stojaci v ceste vojnovej mašinérii islamu. Práve v tomto období sa v Uhorsku udomácnila reformácia, ktorá priniesla mohutný rozvoj školstva, vzdelanosti, myslenia a kultúry. Nasledujúce 17. storočie sa potom nieslo v znamení najprv nesmelej, potom však stále silnejúcej rekatolizácie. Tá po násilných excesoch, krvavých súdoch a galejníkoch pokračovala v poslednej tretine 17. storočia menej násilnými, no účinnými metódami, až sa na sklonku storočia zakonzervovala náboženská tolerancia ako nový fenomén habsburskej, ešte stále absolutistickej politiky.
Publikácia je výsledkom snahy autorov o lepšie poznanie spomínaných udalostí a procesov náboženského vývinu na území historického Uhorska v ranom novoveku.

Imperfect Equilibrium
Why has Russia’s military struggled to adapt to the challenges of contemporary warfare? Despite years of attempts to improve its military capabilities, Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 revealed a crippling lack of skill, discipline and equipment. Non-material factors, in particular the power struggle between military and civilian leaderships, have hindered reform of its armed forces: with officers dominating defence policy, the Kremlin has struggled to implement the necessary changes. Kirill Shamiev explores the political reasons behind Russia’s poor military preparedness for the war in Ukraine. He demonstrates how a seemingly obedient military has frequently blocked civilian reforms, taking advantage of weak oversight mechanisms. The Kremlin’s efforts to centralise control and make the armed forces personally accountable to President Vladimir Putin harmed institutional learning, cementing a conservative civil–military status quo. While this protected the military from civil society interference and ensured Putin’s autocratic rule, it ultimately limited the pace and scope of change. Analysing three cases of reform between 2000 and 2021, Imperfect Equilibrium offers critical insights into the relationship between civilian control and military effectiveness in Russia. Drawing on extensive qualitative and quantitative evidence—including interviews, parliamentary speeches, media reports and surveys—it shows how unchecked autonomy can undermine military development, even in authoritarian contexts.
How to Feel Loved
A globally renowned happiness scientist and a top relationship researcher draw on the science of happiness, love and human connection to offer a powerful framework for feeling truly appreciated and fulfilled. ‘There aren't two scientists in the world I trust more to deliver research-backed, actionable recommendations on how to improve your relationships.’ ANGELA DUCKWORTH, bestselling author of Grit'This book might change your life. ' ARTHUR C. BROOKS, bestselling author of The Happiness Files-----------Many people believe that if they behave the right way, say the right things, or make themselves more lovable, they will feel more loved. But this kind of reflexive thinking is fundamentally misguided, causing a disconnect that can lead to loneliness, depression and self-doubt. Sonja Lyubomirsky, the world’s preeminent expert on happiness, and Harry Reis, one of the world’s leading experts on relationships and connection, have studied the complexities of well-being and love in depth. In How to Feel Loved they present a radical, hopeful, and science-backed shift in how to think about love. They reveal that feeling loved isn’t about making ourselves more appealing — it’s about showing our full and vulnerable selves to others and encouraging our loved ones to do the same. They introduce five powerful mindsets to help us feel the love we crave:A Sharing mindset — showing our vulnerabilities and inner world, not just the polished partsA Listening-to-Learn mindset — making space to truly tune in to another, not just to take turns speakingA Radical Curiosity mindset — being genuinely interested in another and asking better questionsAn Open-Heart mindset — being kind and affirming to another for who they truly areA Multiplicity mindset — embracing the messy complexity in all of usThese mindset shifts give shape to a dynamic back-and-forth process the authors call the Relationship See-Saw, which will help readers remake their conversations in ways that enable them to deeply know those they love and become deeply known by them. It isn’t enough to be loved. To be truly fulfilled, we must feel loved. This book shows us how. -----------More praise for How to Feel Loved'A gift to anyone who wants to live with more joy and connection.' DAN BUETTNER, bestselling author of The Blue Zones'This is the book we’ve been waiting for! Lyubomirsky and Reis marry the best happiness science with the best relationship science to identify the five mindsets for building a life filled with love.' ELI J. FINKEL, bestselling author of The All-Or-Nothing Marriage
A Concise History of New Zealand Aotearoa
New Zealand was the last major landmass, other than Antarctica, to be settled by humans. In A Concise History of New Zealand Aotearoa, Philippa Mein Smith beautifully narrates the story of this rugged and dynamic land, from its origins in Gondwana, between 60 and 100 million years ago, its late settlement by Polynesian voyagers, and its colonisation by Europeans (and the exchanges that made these peoples Maori and Pakeha) to the dramatic struggles over land and efforts to manage global forces into the twenty-first century. The third edition continues to unravel key moments in distant and recent history – the signing and continuation of the Treaty of Waitangi (Te Tiriti o Waitangi), the Gallipoli landings, the sinking of the Rainbow Warrior, and earthquakes – showing their roles in nation-building myths and connecting them with the less dramatic forces, economic and social, that have shaped contemporary New Zealand.
Be a Good Man, Not a Nice Guy
Being “nice” is not the same as being good—and it’s costing men their confidence, relationships, and purpose. In Be a Good Man, Not a Nice Guy, author, speaker, and modern masculinity advocate Kelvin Davis challenges the outdated idea that men have to be passive, agreeable, and approval-seeking to be accepted—especially in love and life. This book is a wake-up call for men who are tired of being overlooked, misunderstood, or emotionally disconnected because they’ve been told to play it safe. Through honest storytelling, cultural insight, and actionable tools, Davis guides readers through the transformation from a “nice guy” who performs to be liked…into a good man who leads with truth, character, and emotional strength. This is not a book about being macho or dominant—it’s about being real, grounded, and responsible. Whether you’re navigating relationships, fatherhood, or personal growth, this book helps you reconnect with your core values and redefine what it means to be a man in today’s world. ?Who It’s For:Men who feel stuck in relationships where they can’t be fully themselvesReaders seeking emotional maturity and purpose-driven masculinityWomen wanting to understand the inner world of the “nice guy”Coaches, therapists, and educators guiding men through personal growt? ou’ll Learn:Why being “nice” is often a mask for fear and insecurityHow to set boundaries without guiltWhat healthy masculinity actually looks likeHow to stop people-pleasing and start self-leadingThe habits of emotionally intelligent, grounded men
