Once There Was a Town
By the close of World War II, six million Jews had been erased from the face of the earth. Those who eluded death had lost their homes, families, and entire way of life. Their response was quintessentially Jewish. From a people with a long-history of self-narration, survivors gathered in groups and wrote books, yizkor books, remembering all that had been destroyed. Jane Ziegelman’s Once There Was a Town takes readers on a journey through this largely uncharted body of writing and the vanished world it depicts. Once There Was a Town resounds with the voices of rich and poor, shopkeepers and tradespeople, scholars and peddlers, Zionists and Communists, men and women telling stories of the towns that were their homes. Stops are made in the bustling market squares where Jewish merchants catered to local farmers; study houses where men recited Torah; kitchens where homemakers baked 20-pound loaves of bread; cemeteries where mourners conversed with departed loved ones and wooded groves where young couples met for the occasional moonlit tryst. Of the many towns on Ziegelman’s itinerary, she always circles back to Luboml, her family’s ancestral shtetl and the point of departure for her own journey of discovery. In conversation with classics by IB Singer and Roman Vishniac, Once There Was a Town is a landmark of rediscovery, and a love song to a vanished world.
Two Years in the Pontifical Zouaves
Following the formation of the kingdom of Italy in 1860, the new Italian government, led by its King, Victor Emmanuel II, turned its attention to the city it intended to make its capital, the Eternal City, Caput Mundi, Rome. One major obstacle stood in their path, the Papal States, under the leadership of Pius IX and under the protection of French soldiers sent by Emperor Napoleon III. For the Italian nationalist leader Giuseppe Garibaldi, a ferocious anticlerical who had an uneasy alliance with the monarchial Italian government, the Papacy would no longer be allowed to hold back Italy's progress into the modern world. As French commitments to preserve the independence of the Vatican waned, it increasingly fell to one of the most remarkable military units in the history of modern Europe to protect the center of Western Christendom. This unit was the Papal Zouaves, soldiers and officers from all over the world drawn by their Catholic faith to fight on behalf of the Pope against an Italian government which was ruthless in enforcing its authority. They came from as near as Switzerland and Belgium and as far away as Canada and China. This is the memoir of one of the, and Englishmen named Joseph Powell. His story is a chronicle of one of the most tragic clashes of church and state, and how ancient institutions fought to protect their existence against the ruthless waves of modernity.
Pečujeme v závěru života
Víme, že pečovat doma není snadné. Víme ale, že to může být dobré nejen pro nemocného, ale i pro nás ostatní: umožnit blízkému být mezi svými, přinést pocit naplnění, urovnat vztahy v rodině.
Publikace vychází z praktických zkušeností pečujících pracovníků Cesty domů, autorka Martina Tesařová několik let vedla tým terénních i pobytových odlehčovacích služeb. Najdete v ní srozumitelné obrázky, praktické rady a jednoduché postupy z praxe.
Tato publikace mapuje oblasti, ve kterých se můžeme na péči připravit, a to třeba uzpůsobením domácnosti a využitím dostupných zdrojů pomoci, ale i svým vnitřním nastavením. Je zaměřená na jednotlivé praktické oblasti péče o člověka v závěru života, např. jak zajistit hygienu u imobilního člověka, najdete zde tipy a triky při vyprazdňování na lůžku, rady pro přesuny nemocného z lůžka na vozík či toaletu. Ale také rady, jak můžete u nemocného podpořit pohyb nebo co může pomoct, či naopak uškodit při podávání potravy a tekutin.
Uvědomujeme si, že péče nekončí úmrtím, a proto přinášíme praktické rady, co můžete dělat bezprostředně poté. Zároveň prostředí, které jsme postupně přizpůsobovali péči, po ukončení péče opět adaptujeme na novou situaci. Zastavíme se krátce i u rituálů rozloučení a návratu do života, kdy už nebudeme muset být v neustálé pohotovosti.
Díky praktické kroužkové vazbě zůstává kniha otevřená přesně tam, kde ji potřebujete - na stole, na lince, vedle postele, a najdete jednoduše názorné obrázky, ověřené tipy a jasné postupy krok za krokem.
Nestačí jen „slyšet“
Umíte skutečně naslouchat, nebo jen čekáte, až budete moci mluvit? Naslouchání není jen pasivní příjem informací: je to biologicky i psychologicky náročný proces, který vyžaduje vnímání, pozornost, empatii a v neposlední řadě i konkrétní komunikační dovednosti.
Monografie Marie Herynkové a Jany Marie Havigerové propojuje teorii aktivního naslouchání v tradici Carla Rogerse se současnými modely procesu naslouchání, s neurovědními vysvětleními náročnosti tohoto procesu a zejména s vlastním kvaziexperimentálním výzkumem 74 studentů učitelství. Sedmitýdenní trénink byl sledován pomocí dotazníku AEL-S i objektivní analýzy audiozáznamů rozhovorů. Výsledky odhalily zajímavý rozpor mezi subjektivním vnímáním a měřitelnou realitou: zatímco studenti sami změnu nepociťovali, jejich komunikace se proměnila – od defenzivních reakcí k většímu využívání objasňování, k validaci emocí a k projevům empatie, jiný byl celkový styl vedení rozhovoru.
Kniha nepředkládá jednoduché návody ani univerzální recepty. Nabízí odborný, střízlivý, daty podložený pohled na aktivní naslouchání jako dovednost, kterou lze rozvíjet, a kterou stojí za to rozvíjet.
Publikace je určena studentům i odborníkům v oblasti pedagogiky, psychologie a pomáhajících profesí i čtenářům, kteří hledají odborný text propojující teorii a praxi s oporou v empirických zjištěních.
Oathbreakers
“Fascinating.” — The Wall Street Journal“An enlightening portrait of the medieval mindset.” — Publishers WeeklyThe authors of The Bright Ages return with a “real-life Game of Thrones” (New York Times Book Review)—the story of the Carolingian Civil War, a bloody, protracted battle pitting brother against brother, father against son, that would end an empire, upend a continent, and redefine the future of Europe By the early ninth century, the Carolingian empire was at the height of its power. The Franks, led by Charlemagne, had built the largest European domain since Rome in its heyday. Though they jockeyed for power, prestige, and profit, the Frankish elites enjoyed political and cultural consensus. But just two generations later, their world was in shambles. Civil war, once an unthinkable threat, had erupted after Louis the Pious’s sons tried to overthrow him—and then placed their knives at the other’s neck. Families who had once charged into battle together now drew each other’s blood.The Carolingian Civil War would rage for years as kings fought kings, brother faced off against brother, and sons challenged fathers. Oathbreakers is the dramatic history of this brutal, turbulent time. Medieval historians David M. Perry and Matthew Gabriele illuminate what happens when a once unshakeable political and cultural order breaks down and long suppressed tensions flare into deadly violence. Drawn from rich primary sources, featuring a wide cast of characters, packed with dramatic twists and turns, this is history that rivals the greatest fictional epics—with consequences that continue to shape our own world.Oathbreakers offers lessons of what deep cracks in a once-stable social and political fabric might reveal, and the bloody consequences of disagreeing on facts and reality. The Civil War at the heart of this tale asks: who is “in” and who is “out”? And what happens when things fall apart?
The Irish Tricolour
This nationally important book reveals the untold story of the Irish tricolour: its true origins, a forgotten heroine, and the emblems it replaced. For the first time, a fully referenced history corrects long-standing myths and slurs surrounding Ireland’s national flag. It also reinterprets iconic Irish symbols — from the harp and shamrock to the tri-spiral — placing them within the broader journey toward Irish nationhood and national identity. Along Ireland’s road to a republic, key figures are restored to their rightful place — from Owen Roe O’Neill and Wolfe Tone to Thomas Meagher and Padraig Pearse. The book explores crucial turning points — the rise of green as Ireland’s colour, the rebellions of 1642, 1798, 1848, and 1916, Catholic Emancipation, and the flag’s later use — and misuse. A bold, insightful retelling of Ireland’s story through its symbols.
The Noble Quest
The late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries witnessed the dawn of a golden age of science, during which time there was a dedicated drive to accurately categorise nature and explain the natural world. Enthusiastic naturalists, amateur and professional, set off to collect and classify plants and animals across the New World, and many of these finds still bear the names of those who discovered them today. In this new and updated edition, The Noble Quest profiles nine notable naturalists of the pre-Darwinian age: early naturalists William Bartram and Alexander von Humboldt; inquisitive aristocrats Charles Waterton and Prince Maximilian of Wied; professional collectors David Douglas, John Kirk Townsend and John Richardson; and the last of the field naturalists Henry Walter Bates and John Wesley Powell. All faced great adventures and hardship as they undertook their groundbreaking work and strived to quantify, categorise and rationally explain the planet’s flourishing ecosystems.

Mining Men
The story of the last generation of British miners: fathers and sons, brothers and comrades, big hitters and broken men, strikers and scabs. ''A compelling, unflinching account…full of tales of tragedy, gallows humour and camaraderie’ The TimesMining Men explores how these men felt when the pits were closed and what happened next, including former miners who became factory workers, detectives, driving instructors, counsellors, the local mayor and one who even ended up working on Fleet Street. Featuring accounts from Ayrshire to the South Wales Valleys, from the ‘People’s Republic of South Yorkshire’, to the ‘Sunshine Corner Coalfields’ of Kent, each chapter offers a different perspective of the industry.Britain’s last deep coalmine closed in 2015, yet just fifty years ago the mining industry was a juggernaut, employing over 250,000 workers. Combining new personal interviews with extensive archival research, Emily P. Webber illuminates the extraordinary history of the industry once considered the backbone of Britain.By situating the miners’ strike of 1984–85 in a longer history of the coalfields, we can understand why miners and their families fought so hard against pit closures, and what happened after the pit wheels stopped turning. Vivid, evocative and richly alive with minute detail, Mining Men uncovers what the mining industry once meant to its workers and their communities, and what Britain lost when it was gone.
The Only Cure
'A scholarly masterpiece, written by the world's greatest living authority on Freud . . . There is so much to be learned in these pages'KARL J. FRISTON, the world's most cited neuroscientistOnce dismissed as unscientific, psychoanalytic therapy is proving to be among our most effective medical treatments of any kind - outperforming psychiatric drugs and rivalling vaccines in its power to prevent and heal. Why does it work so wel? erhaps because one of the most controversial figures in psychology was right all along. Neuroscience now confirms much of what Sigmund Freud conjectured over a century ago: our deepest struggles stem, not from chemical imbalances, but from buried memories and unconscious conflicts that no pill can touch. Using enthralling case studies and cutting-edge brain science, pioneering neuroscientist Mark Solms makes the case that psychoanalysis should resume its position as our master theory of the mind. Yet modern research also reveals where Freud got important things wrong. Could correcting these errors make therapy even more effectiv? s psychiatric diagnoses soar and standard treatments continue to fail many patients, The Only Cure offers a revolutionary hope: a real science of healing, rooted in the radical idea that our suffering arises from truths we haven't yet faced.

The Blood in Winter
A nation on the cusp of war. A king ousted from his capital by the people. A society on the brink of collapse. From Jonathan Healey comes a gripping history about the months that sent England into civil war‘An old-fashioned Westminster thriller . . . You could hardly find a more engrossing or exciting story’ DOMINIC SANDBROOK, SUNDAY TIMES‘A rollicking history, packed with fire and excitement *****’ DANIEL BROOKS, TELEGRAPH‘The House of Cards-ish drama remains gripping to the last’ LITERARY REVIEWAfter years of tension between a king and his people, in 1641 England reaches a semblance of peace. Armies have disbanded, legislation has passed to ensure Parliament will continue to sit, and the people are tentatively optimistic. Radical politicians congratulate themselves on a stunning political victory. Royal servants are coming to accept an altered future. Then comes winter. With it, chaos, protests, political deadlock, and eventually a remarkable attempt by King Charles I to destroy his opponents. On 4 January 1642 Charles marches on the small riverside city of Westminster at the head of an army, seeking to arrest five Members of Parliament. In doing so, he sets in motion a series of events that will lead to bloodshed and war, changing a nation forever. Why did the English Civil War break out? The Blood in Winter tells the story of an English people's great political awakening, and of a nation that splintered into bloodshed at a terrifying speed. Jonathan Healey recreates the claustrophobic atmosphere of the day, with rowdy protestors in the streets and London blanketed in coal smoke. It is a story of remarkable but flawed characters, all faced with unpalatable choices, and a frightening picture of a society in profound distress.
Red Dawn Over China
A FINANCIAL TIMES HIGHLIGHT FOR 2026 'The most important reappraisal of modern China to appear in years' PETER FRANKOPAN, author of The Silk Roads and The Earth TransformedFrom renowned, prize-winning historian Frank Dikötter – ‘the historian of China’ (Spectator) – a commanding new history of China’s path to Communism, brought to the people at the barrel of a gun. The history of modern China has long been portrayed as a tale of Communists fighting in the hills for freedom, gradually gaining popular support by taking land from the rich and giving it to the poor. Drawing on a wealth of archival evidence, Red Dawn Over China reveals how unlikely the Party's victory actually was, had it not been for financial and military support from the Soviet Union. Established in 1921 under the direct guidance of Moscow, for the best part of a decade the Communist Party left a trail of destruction, besieging towns and plundering the countryside. When the Communists managed to hold territory, they reduced the villagers to a state of servitude, undermining belief in their cause as well as the local economy. By 1936 they had the same popular appeal as an obscure religious sect. A brutal war of occupation by Japan allowed them to survive far behind enemy lines. After Soviet troops invaded Manchuria in 1945 and provided more money and munitions, the Communists at long last prevailed through a pitiless war of attrition, driven by an unflinching will to conquer at all costs. In this riveting tale told with great narrative verve, Frank Dikötter reveals how thirteen delegates gathered in a dusty room in 1921 ended up raising the red flag over the Forbidden City in 1949, forever altering the course of history for a quarter of humanity and shaping the world as we know it today. Praise for Frank Dikötter and the People's Trilogy:'Harrowing and brilliant' Ben Macintyre'Gripping and masterful' Simon Sebag Montefiore'One of the few books that anyone who wants to understand the twentieth century simply must read' New Statesman

Ha Oroszország győz - Szcenárió
Megszoktuk, hogy végül minden jól alakul. De mi van, ha most nem így lesz? Carlo Masala különösen drámai módon mutatja be, mi forog kockán.
Egy lehetséges forgatókönyv szerint 2028 márciusában az orosz csapatok elfoglalják az észt kisvárost, Narvát és a Balti-tengeren fekvő Hiiumaa-szigetet. Megkezdődik a balti államok elleni támadás. Az a tény, hogy Európa az ukrajnai háború befejezése után nem fegyverkezett fel újra, most visszaüt. Alkalmazható-e a NATO 5-ös cikkelye? Hogyan dönt a szövetség? Kockáztatják-e a nukleáris háborút?
A katonai szakértő Carlo Masala a fikció határmezsgyéjén egyensúlyozva mutatja be, hogy Oroszország Ukrajna elleni agresszív háborúja messze több, mint egy európai konfliktus – ez a jövőbeli világrendért folyó globális hatalmi harc egyik legfontosabb csatatere, kimenetelétől függ, hogy milyen normák uralják ezentúl a nemzetközi politikát. Ez a könyv sürgető felhívás, hogy Ukrajna sorsán túl lássuk azt is, nemcsak Európa jövője a tét, hanem a nemzetközi rend stabilitása is.
„Hozzászoktunk, hogy végül valahogyan minden jóra fordul. Minden hollywoodi filmben ez történik. Ez történt 1945-ben és 1989-ben is. Persze nem azonnal, az unalmas is lenne. De a végére mégiscsak. A mostani helyzet egyértelmű: demokráciánkra, Ukrajnára, az egész Nyugatra irtózatos nyomás nehezedik. A populisták egyre sikeresebbek a választásokon, az orosz csapatok előrenyomulnak, Donald Trumpot megint elnökké választották. De a végére majd csak jóra fordulnak a dolgok, ugye? Minket azért mégsem támad meg Oroszország, a demokrácia nem roppan bele, a Nyugat megőrzi az erejét, ugye?
És mi van, ha mégsem? Mi van, ha Oroszország győz?”

The Shape of Things Unseen
A compelling insight into how our imagination works, based on the latest scientific research.
People often think of imagination as something used only in creative endeavours. In fact, we use imagination constantly as we reminisce, anticipate, plan, daydream, read, create imagined worlds. The truth is we live in the here and now much less than we tend to think.
Imagination isn’t the exception in our daily lives; it’s our default setting. Yet only now are we beginning to understand exactly how it works. From hallucination to sleepwalking, from REM sleep to delusions, neurologist Adam Zeman brilliantly guides us through the latest scientific studies in the world of the imagination.
He draws on research in neuroscience, the study of human origins and child development to show how the human brain is above all else a creative, imaginative organ – and that we have evolved to share what we imagine. Our brains behave in strikingly similar ways when we observe, remember, imagine or act. Imagine looking at a cube and your eye will trace the contours of the cube as if you were actually seeing it.
Yet it turns out that people differ hugely in their imaginative experience. Some people lack sensory imagery altogether – they would be unable to picture their family if asked to – but still lead fulfilling, even highly creative, lives. From how we visualise to how we understand the minds of others, from the benefits of play to mental disorders, The Shape of Things Unseen dazzles and delights.
It is an essential guide to the latest discoveries about the workings of the human mind.
