Duše světa
V Duši světa obhajuje Roger Scruton metafyzickou zkušenost v ateistickém světě. Tvrdí, že naše osobní vztahy, morální intuice a estetické soudy mají transcendentní rozměr, který nelze pochopit pouze optikou vědy. Plné uvědomování si subjektivního bytí – a jeho pochopení – v důsledku znamená uznání reality posvátna. Nejedná se však o důkazový materiál Boží existence, ale jde o nezbytnost transcendentna pro lidský život. Scruton na základě umění, architektury či hudby naznačuje, že nejvyšší formy lidské zkušenosti a uměleckého projevu vyprávějí příběh o našich metafyzických potřebách. Evoluce nedokáže vysvětlit naše pojetí posvátna; neurověda je irelevantní pro naše mezilidské vztahy a vědecké poznání obecně neumí nic říci o zkušenosti krásy. Hledání posvátného zkrátka propůjčuje světu duši, pohled na realitu z Boží perspektivy. Svět bez posvátna by byl nakonec úplně jiný svět – takový, v němž my lidé bychom byli pouzí osamocení cizinci.

The Secret Sacred
The Secret Sacred explores the hidden religious practices of the classical world. These cults, shrouded in secrecy, promised initiates a transformative afterlife. While many rituals remain mysterious, artworks and historical texts provide glimpses of their underlying beliefs. The book examines Greco-Roman religious traditions and their divergence into mystery cults, including Bacchic ceremonies depicted in frescoes, Orphic gold tablets guiding souls in the underworld and the Eleusinian Mysteries celebrating Demeter and Persephone’s cycle of rebirth. Eastern deities like Mithras, Isis and Cybele also feature in the cults discussed. The possible influence of mystery religions on early Christianity is also explored, drawing parallels with modern-day beliefs. Featuring the most recent archaeological discoveries and stunning museum artefacts, this is a lively account of the concealed faiths of the ancient world.
Bdělost
Probouzet lidi a odhalovat jim pravdu o jejich vlastní velikosti – to je cíl, který si Anthony de Mello kladl při své práci s lidmi, a tedy i cíl této knihy, jež jeho práci s lidmi zpětně zachycuje.

Věda, technika a zamyšlení
Překlad dvou významných přednášek z roku 1953 (Otázka techniky. Věda a zamyšlení), které reprezentují Heideggerovo definitivní stanovisko k novověké vědě a moderní technice.
Svou celoživotní otázku, jíž byla otázka po bytí, promýšlel Heidegger jednak v rozhovoru se svými antickými i novověkými předchůdci, jednak na pozadí především Hölderlinova „myslivého básnění“, a konečně v opakované konfrontaci s tím, co určuje naši dobu, což pro něho byla věda a technika.
The Anthropology Book
Explore and understand the key ideas and movements in anthropology - the study of human societies and cultures and how they work.
What does it mean to be human? Why do we have rituals? How do family structures differ around the world, and why? The Anthropology Book answers questions like these and many, many more. Applying the "Big Ideas" series' combination of authoritative, accessible text and bold graphics, The Anthropology Book introduces key concepts from different branches of the subject, such as cultural anthropology, ethnography, and biological anthropology, and explains how they have developed over the past century. The book explores the origins of human life and cultures, and how societies develop traditions, laws, and languages. Profiling renowned anthropologists, such as Claude Lévi-Strauss and Margaret Mead, and covering topics as diverse as biology, medicine, war, sexuality, family roles, and kinship, The Anthropology Book is a fascinating, accessible introduction to the core principles of anthropological thought.
How to Save the Internet
The global, open internet is fragmenting. How To Save the Internet outlines the global cooperation needed to reform Big Tech and preserve the internet as we know it.
As democracies aim to control Big Tech, Silicon Valley adopts an America-first agenda, and authoritarian regimes like China and Russia isolate their populations from the internet, the most powerful tool for bringing us together risks being dismantled.
Nick Clegg, Meta's former President of Global Affairs, reveals where Big Tech has faltered, how Silicon Valley's insularity has led to mistakes, and the necessary radical reforms for global platforms to ensure their future.
While new regulations are crucial, imposing national borders on the internet would undermine its capacity for sharing knowledge, collaboration, education, trade, research, and ultimately, for the empowerment and improvement of billions of lives.
Radical, reasonable, deeply felt and disarmingly honest, this is the book we need to save the internet.
Ocean
A colourful visual journey from the shoreline to the ocean's depths to celebrate the sheer diversity of life beneath the waves.
Three quarters of the ocean has never been seen by humans. Drawing on the recent success of Trees, this companion book explores our oceans, taking readers on a deep dive through the different depth zones - from the shoreline and surface, via the sunlight zone, the twilight and midnight zones and into the great abyss - to chart the richness and diversity of life found in our seas.
Each chapter, centred on a different depth zone, begins with a comprehensive introduction, before exploring 15-25 visual themes, from the smallest living things to the largest and the familiar to the little-known. A final chapter on the oceans and us reveals the visual history of human interaction with the deep blue, from discovery and mapping to current issues of the environment and preservation.
Stunning photographic content - from microscopic images of tiny individual critters to corals of every hue and the abstract patterns of fish scales - is shown along with a wide range of stunning archival illustrations and specially commissioned infographics that convey complex data in a simple and elegant way.
With frequent news stories about the threat to marine life posed by climate change and human behaviours, the oceans are an important subject, and the preservation of biodiversity is crucial for the future of our planet. This book draws attention to the importance of life in our oceans to provide a positive message about the need to preserve it.
Women Who Ruled the World
These are the stories of the female kings: women who risked everything, sometimes unwillingly, to find their place in a man's world.
Female kings have always been a rarity, an oddity, or an undesirable outcome. In almost all places throughout the world a male ruler was preferred to a woman, with female inheritance vanishingly rare and frequently disputed. In spite of this, women have secured crowns - or fought for them - over several millennia.
From the lush oases of Ancient Egypt to the cherry blossomed lands of Japan, the machinations of the Tudor court to the far reaches of Pacific Island kingdoms, Women Who Ruled the World is an expansive and comprehensive history of female royal power.
Covering five millennia of global history, renowned historian Elizabeth Norton weaves together the stories of women rulers throughout the ages. Establishing beloved and already celebrated figures amongst those who have been left in the margins of history, Norton peels away the layers of time, geography and culture to reveal what it was to be a woman who ruled.
Hitler's People
A biographical study of Hitler's inner circle offers a new way to understand the horrors of the Nazi regime
Why did so many Germans take part in the crimes of Nazi Germany? How did they come to support Hitler and follow him almost to the very end? For too long, the Nazis have been presented as little more than psychopaths or criminals. In his major new work, renowned historian Richard J. Evans makes use of a mass of recently unearthed new evidence to strip away the veneer of myth and legend from the faces of the Third Reich and present a more realistic view of Nazi perpetrators as human beings who were disturbingly like us.
Evans offers rounded, fresh and often startling new portraits of the men and women who created and served Nazi Germany, beginning with Hitler himself and going on to encompass leading figures like Göring, Goebbels and Himmler, enforcers of Hitler's orders such as Eichmann and Heydrich, propagandists like Leni Riefenstahl, low-level perpetrators such as the notorious Irma Grese and unknown sympathizers and fellow-travellers who helped the regime in myriad ways.
Hitler's People is a chilling, brilliantly written work which allows the reader to understand the texture and values of the Third Reich and just how far individuals will go when so many normal moral constraints have disappeared.
Witches
Witches – whether broomstick-riding spell-casters or Wiccan earth-worshippers – have been culturally relevant for centuries. For centuries, too, belief in the potency of witchcraft has been debated, accused witches have been hunted and punished, and film and TV productions have brought the witch and the witch-hunter to big and small screens.But where did our perception of witches – good and bad – come from? What motivated wide-scale panics about witchcraft during certain periods? How were alleged witches identified, accused, and variously tortured and punishe? teven Veerapen traces witches, witchcraft, and witch-hunters from the explosion of mass-trials under King James VI and I in the late sixteenth century to the death of the witch-hunting phenomenon in the early eighteenth century. Based on documents and the latest historical research, he explores what motivated widespread belief in demonic witchcraft throughout Britain as well as in continental Europe, what caused mass panics about alleged witches, and what led, ultimately, to the relegation of the witch – and the witch-hunter – to the realm of fantasy and the fringes of society.
Autokrácia Rt.
„Mindannyian látjuk magunk előtt az autokrata állam karikatúráját. A képen az állam élén egy gazember a markában tartja a katonaságot és a rendőrséget, amely erőszakkal fenyegeti a lakosságot. Mindenfelé ádáz kollaboránsok, esetleg feltűnik a kép szélén néhány bátor másként gondolkodó.
A huszonegyedik században azonban ennek a képnek már vajmi kevés köze van a valósághoz. Manapság az autokráciákat nem egy gonosz ember vezeti. A hatalmat bonyolult hálózatok gyakorolják, amelyek kleptokratikus rendszerekre, katonai, félkatonai, rendőri erőszakszervekre és propagandát, dezinformációt terjesztő, megfigyelést végző szakértői csoportokra épülnek.”
Anne Applebaum új könyve elmélyült alapossággal tekinti át, hogy a „régi vágású” diktatúrákból autokráciákká váló rendszerek milyen ijesztő hatékonysággal dolgoznak a demokratikus világ meggyöngítésén. Az utóbbi évek, évtizedek hozadéka, hogy ázsiai, afrikai és európai országok hagyományos diktatúrákból autokráciákká alakultak, amelyek egyrészt profitalapon – is – működnek (innen a könyv címe), másrészt az ideológiai kérdésektől függetlenül az egymással történő folyamatos kooperációt is a rendszer fennmaradása feltételének tartják.
The Imagination Pulse
This Element explores the transformative power of reading as a deeply imaginative, embodied process. It challenges conventional views of reading as mere decoding and argues that reading involves a dynamic interplay between perception, imagination, and the body. Drawing from ecological-embodied theories and cross-disciplinary insights, it introduces the concept of 'breaks' in reading – moments of pause, disruption, and reflection – as essential to fostering rich imaginative engagement. By focusing on multiscalar attention, pacemaking, and material engagement, the Element proposes a novel framework for understanding reading as an active, creative process that enhances cognitive and emotional depth. Through a cognitive ethnography of reading, the Element demonstrates how these imaginative breaks can cultivate more meaningful and sustained interactions with texts, offering insights for education and reading practices. Ultimately, the Element seeks to reimagine the role of reading in enhancing imaginative capacities and navigating today's complex social and global challenges.
Ve vyhnanství
Po vzniku Charty 77 hledal komunistický režim způsoby, jak potlačit domácí opozici. Akce Asanace umožnila režimu v 80. letech vystěhování nepohodlných signatářů Charty. Tato publikace je zaměřena na výpovědi generace proživších akci Asanace osobně, a dále druhé a třetí generace jejich potomků. Zachycujeme vyprávění účastníků a analyzujeme je v mezigeneračním srovnání. Popis výpovědí tří generací doplňují čtyři další texty – osobní zkušenosti s akcí Asanace Ivanky Lefeuvre z první generace, úvaha Věry Roubalové o zkušenostech těch, kteří v Československu zůstali, pohled účastníka druhé generace, Vavřince Hutky, a úvaha o domovu z hlediska zkušenosti migrantů. Ukazujeme psychologické důsledky vyhnání, vykořenění a přerušení kontinuity.
The Rage of Party
THE TIMES HISTORY BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025A CAPX AND ENGELSBERG IDEAS BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025 The late 17th century saw the rise of a new phenomenon that would transform Britain forever: party politics. Beginning with a furious dispute over whether to allow a Roman Catholic - James II - to become king, the division between Whig and Tory marked the chief political battlelines of a ferociously polarised country for several tumultuous generations. The Rage of Party traces the thrilling story of how these two parties - one representing the established social forces of squire, church and monarchy; the other the rising forces of financial power and Protestant Dissent - settled the defining debates of the age, culminating in a dramatic fight to the death over peace, piety and the Protestant Succession in the age of Queen Anne. Their bitter disputes over religion, economics and the constitution profoundly influenced many of the forces and institutions that shaped the modern world, ranging from the City of London and the Bank of England to the Union between England and Scotland and the British Empire. From vicious pamphlet wars and some of history's most corrupt and riotous elections through a revolution, multiple assassination attempts and enough scandals to make even the most louche modern politician blush, this brilliantly researched book shows how a motley crew of rakes, hypocrites, cunning tricksters and scheming clergymen engaged in not only a political confrontation that threatened a second civil war, but a culture war that still finds echoes in 21st-century Britain. 'This is a lucid and exciting account of high and low politics in the crucial years of Whig and Tory battles following the Glorious Revolution, when Great Britain was created, and a new world of money, war and empire dawned. George Owers grippingly recounts the culture wars, paranoia, self-seeking and skulduggery that are "both recognisable and strange". Recognizable because "we are all still, in our heart of hearts, either Whig or Tory", and we are still grappling with their legacy' - Robert Tombs, author of The English and their History'This book is a delight. Written with vivacity and veracity it sheds light on the miracle of English party politics' - Maurice Glasman'We tend to think of our current age as uniquely fractious but as George Owers shows in his engrossing new book, it is a kindergarten compared to the "Rage of Party'' this country experienced in the late seventeen and early eighteenth centuries. The story he tells so vividly has it all: political divisions, religious strife, immigration controversies, fake news, arguments over foreign policy, Anglo-Scottish tensions - polarisation all round!' - Brendan Simms, author of Europe: The Struggle for Supremacy, 1453 to the Present'A highly readable account of the beginnings of the party system in Britain, with insights that are relevant for understanding of politics in any era. George Owers's vivid recreation of the conflict of Whigs and Tories illuminates what was a crucial period in the rise of Britain as a major European and global power' - David Hayton, editor of The History of Parliament: The House of Commons 1690-1715'Today's party politics absorbs us. When did British party politics begin and how? George Owers's book provides a compelling analysis, brilliantly interweaving vivid vignettes into a masterly narrative' - Mark Goldie, Emeritus Professor of History, University of Cambridge

So You Want to Own Greenland
An indispensable guide to Greenland-why it matters, who covets it and why this wilderness of 56,000 inhabitants could become the next global flashpoint.
Greenland is no ordinary island. From its discovery by Norsemen to its contemporary strategic significance, it has been a frontier for human exploration and empire, today emerging as a facilitator of geoeconomic competition. This book delves into the rich history and complex politics of Greenland, revealing how this icy expanse has shaped-and been shaped by-the world.
This short history begins with the Vikings, whose mysterious disappearance from Greenland in the 1400s remains one of history's great puzzles. It then explores the island's gradual transformation from a Danish possession to an autonomous territory, charting its role during the World Wars and its strategic importance during the Cold War.
Greenland finds itself at the centre of a renewed 'great game', balancing transatlantic ties, rising Chinese influence, and mounting domestic pressures for independence. And that's before President Trump's agenda is factored in.
Starting from Trump's plan to purchase Greenland, Elizabeth Buchanan dissects the island's contemporary role and poses four provocative scenarios for its future-from full independence to an icy geopolitical standoff with Denmark. So You Want to Own Greenland? is an essential read for anyone curious about the future of this frozen frontier and its place on the global stage.
