Úžasné nápady prírody
Živý a nesmierne fascinujúci ponor do prírody a mnohých prevratných ľudských vynálezov inšpirovaných divokou prírodou. Keď astronómovia hľadali teleskop, ktorý by dokázal zachytiť röntgenové žiarenie z nebeských telies, obrátili sa na homára. Keď lekári hľadali liek, ktorý by stabilizoval pacientov s cukrovkou 2. typu, našli svoju múzu v jašterici. Keď vedci chceli drasticky znížiť emisie pri výrobe cementu, pozorovali, ako si morské koraly stavajú svoje skelety. Toto je biomimetika v praxi: inšpirovať sa prírodou pri riešení ľudských výziev. V knihe Úžasné nápady prírody sa Kristy Hamiltonová venuje pozadiu niektorých z našich najneočakávanejších inovácií. Prechádza cez zamrznuté vodopády, putuje pralesmi plnými mrakov, objavuje hniezda v Mohavskej púšti, skúma prílivové oblasti, berie nás do najhlbších oceánov a do blízkosti sopiek, aby nám predstavila živočíchy a rastliny, ktoré inšpirovali všetko od systémov riadenia prepravy nákladu až po netoxické lepidlá. Autorka predstavuje mužov a ženy, ktorí počúvali svoje „Zaujímalo by ma...“ až do konca, niekedy aj proti všetkým okolnostiam. Hoci radosť z vedeckých objavov je v popredí, kniha Úžasné nápady prírody je aj ľúbostným listom prírode, doplneným o hlboké posolstvo o ochrane prírody: Ak sa chceme naďalej učiť od tvorov okolo nás, musíme chrániť ich neskrotné biotopy.
ÚŽASNÉ NÁPADY PRÍRODY „Táto výnimočná kniha rozpráva o desiatkach spôsobov, akými sa vedci snažia poučiť z prírody, aby vyriešili veľké výzvy ľudstva. Človek po jej prečítaní zostane dychtivý hľadať ďalšie, nové riešenia.“ Rob Dunn, autor Never Home Alone
„Keď sa začítate do jedinej kapitoly, objavíte znamenitú zmes vy- nálezov, ekológie, histórie, zázrakov mnohých druhov a inšpirácie, ktorá je taká pestrá a uspokojujúca, že budete čítať ďalej, dlho po tom, čo ste si mysleli, že už vám stačilo.“ Elin Kelsey, PhD., autorka Hope Matters
„Skutočne pozoruhodný debut. Hamiltonovej majstrovsky spracovaná antológia je tým najvzácnejším literárnym skvostom: knihou, ktorá je rovnako vzrušujúca ako pokorná.“ Dr. Robin George Andrews, držiteľ ocenenia za vedeckú žurnalistiku a autor knihy Super Volcanoes
„Je vzácne nájsť knihu, o ktorú by ste sa chceli podeliť so svojím sedemročným dieťaťom, ako aj s kolegami a priateľmi v práci! Hamiltonovej dielo je pútavé od prvého slova.“ Shirley-Ann Augustin-Behravesh, vedúca vedecká pracovníčka Global Futures na Arizonskej štátnej univerzite
„Úžasné nápady prírody sú prístupným pohľadom na biológiu, ktorá inšpirovala niektoré z našich najgeniálnejších vynálezov, a súčasne sú výzvou k činom na obnovu lepšieho sveta.“ Gina Rae La Cerva, autorka Feasting Wild
Kristy Hamiltonová je novinárka, ktorá sa špecializuje na vedu a životné prostredie. Jej práce sa objavili v časopisoch Wired, Hakai Magazine, Business Insider a ďalších. Bola spolumoderátorkou podcastov pre časopis Science a držiteľkou novinárskeho štipendia Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

Romanovci 1613-1918, 2. vydání
Druhé vydání historie dynastie Romanovců s jejími cary a carevnami, leckdy výraznými osobnostmi a autokraty, z nichž někteří se narodili se zábleskem geniality a jiní šílenství. Tato strhující epopej, oplývající mnoha historickými anekdotami, vypráví, jak Romanovci neúprosně budovali své impérium, nevyhýbajíce se konspiracím, rodinným rivalitám, ani sexuálním extravagancím. Od Petra Velikého, despoty a milovníka bujarých večírků, budovatele ruské autokracie, vyžadujícího neustálou opilost dvora, přes Mikuláše II., posledního ruského cara s tragickým osudem, který urychlil pád říše, po Kateřinu II., největší carevnu se spoustou milenců, tato kniha odhaluje jejich tajuplný svět a neobyčejné osudy. Živé a nenapodobitelné pero Simona Sebaga Montefioreho nabízí mix drobné i velké historie a s nebývalou intenzitou pro nás oživuje velké momenty, milníky historie Romanovců, pro něž vláda nad Ruskem byla posvátným posláním i danajským darem zároveň. Nové, doplněné vydání.

Be Still
Stillness is an alien concept in today''s busy world. Communication, entertainment, work and relationships seem accessible to us 24–7, and it can feel impossible to change the pace. In Be Still, Lucy Rycroft takes us on a journey of 30 Bible devotions, reflecting on the concept of being still. From Moses leading the Israelites through the Red Sea, to the raw emotions of the Psalms, to Jesus calming the storm, the focus of this book is how we, as Christians living in the crazed busyness of the 21st century, can absorb biblical truths to help us discover what being still looks like for us today.

Extinctions
A journey through the great mass-extinction events that have shaped our Earth: 'Deeply informed and readable' Nature
In this vast sweep of our Earth’s history, Michael Benton brings the deep past to life as never before. Deploying the cutting-edge tools in biology, chemistry, physics and geology that are transforming our understanding of previous environmental cataclysms – including the incredible new discovery of a hitherto unknown extinction event – he uncovers not only their lethal effects but also the processes that brought about such large-scale destruction.
Beginning with the oldest extinction, Benton investigates the Late Ordovician, which set the evolution of the first animals on an entirely new course; the late Devonian, brought on by global warming; the cataclysmic End-Permian, which wiped out over 90 per cent of all life on Earth; and, book-ending the age of the dinosaurs, the newly discovered Carnian Pluvial Event and the End-Cretaceous asteroid. He examines how global warming, acid rain, ocean acidification, erupting volcanoes and meteorite impact have affected conditions on Earth, the drastic consequences for global ecology, and how life in turn survived, adapted and evolved.
This expert retelling of scientific breakthroughs allows us to link long-ago upheavals to our modern crises. As today’s climate scientists and political leaders grapple to understand these processes and our planet enters the sixth great extinction, these insights from the past may hold the key to survival.

Diaspora
Diaspora is an important concept in history, sociology, religious studies, ethnic studies, political science, and literary criticism, among other disciplines. Meanwhile, journalists, politicians, and cultural authorities use the term with increasing frequency when describing contemporary global migration. But what does diaspora mean? Until recently, the term referred principally to the dispersal and exile of the Jews. However, over the course of the twentieth century, involuntary migrants from Armenia, Africa, and Ireland came to be seen as diasporic. Since the 1980s, diaspora has proliferated to a remarkable extent-to the point where it risks losing its coherence. If diaspora is merely a synonym for "migration" or "ethnic group," why use the word at all? Kevin Kenny''s Very Short Introduction to diaspora examines the origins of diaspora as a concept, its changing meanings over time, its current popularity, and its strengths and limitations as an explanatory device. Mediating between the multiple definitions currently in use, the book proposes a flexible approach to diaspora that can provide insights into the motives for migration; the networks through which migrants travel; the political, economic, and cultural connections they form among themselves, with their homelands, and with fellow diasporans in other locations around the world; the idea of return to a homeland, sometimes literally but more often metaphorically; and recent developments concerning refugees and globalization. The argument ranges broadly across time and space, using examples drawn mainly from Jewish, African, Irish, and Asian history. Diaspora emerges not as a thing that can be measured but as a concept that helps people-migrants, scholars, and social commentators alike-to make sense of the experience of migration. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
Ghost Nation
'Compelling and important' - Rana Mitter, The Observer'Few books qualify as essential reading but Ghost Nation is one of them' - Clive Hamilton, bestselling co-author of The Hidden Hand'A thoughtful, illuminating exploration of Taiwan’s past and present as well as its possible future' - BooklistThe gripping story of Taiwan's rich past and precarious present from one of the country's top foreign correspondents. With all eyes on Ukraine and the Middle East, Taiwan is emerging as the next geopolitical tinderbox. Despite sitting at the heart of the tense relationship between China and the US, Taiwan’s history and its people have long been overlooked and misunderstood. In Ghost Nation, Taiwan-based journalist Chris Horton tells their stories and explores why this diplomatically isolated country has become such an important player on the world stage. As China’s military preparations continue apace, the stakes have never been higher. Perched precariously on the fault-lines of global power, the fate of this vibrant democracy and tech colossus will shape Asia’s future – either containing or facilitating China’s expansionist goals. Drawing from over a decade of living and reporting in Taiwan, and informed by interviews with everyday citizens, presidents and other key figures, Horton provides a panoramic view of this fascinating country. Ghost Nation will leave readers with a profound appreciation for Taiwan’s struggle for self-determination – and its pivotal role in our shared future. 'Indispensable and timely' - Melissa Chan, Emmy-nominated international affairs correspondent'An unmissable account . . . Accessible, entertaining and immaculately researched' - Dr Jonathan Sullivan, co-author of Taiwan: A Contested Democracy Under Threat and former Director of the China Policy Institute
Counting
SHORTLISTED FOR THE BRITISH SOCIETY FOR THE HISTORY OF SCIENCE PRIZE 2025 SHORTLISTED FOR THE NEUMANN PRIZE 2025 WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO COUNT? WHY ARE HUMANS THE ONLY SPECIES ON EARTH THAT CAN DO IT? WHERE DID COUNTING COME FROM? HOW HAS IT SHAPED SOCIETIES ALONG THE WAY? AND WHY DOES IT MATTER? Counting is an innovative, erudite, world-wrapping journey through humanity’s marvellous ability to impose numbers on things. Acclaimed historian and mathematician Benjamin Wardhaugh draws on stories from the Stone Age to cyberspace in pursuit of the elusive, fascinating, endlessly diverse history of human counting. Starting with the roots of counting in human brains, bodies and environments, Wardhaugh tours us around the world and through time while exploring the different flavours of counting that have developed over millennia. We meet the makers of bead necklaces in ancient South Africa, the inventors of writing in the world ’ s first metropolis, and the ‘counter culture’ of classical Athens. We see counting used – and changed – by Indian scholars, Chinese peasants and Papuan shopkeepers; we meet the distinctive numerate agendas of Mayan kings, US governments and Korean vloggers. Weaving these stories together, Wardhaugh shows how cultures have shaped counting, and how counting has shaped culture, in a rich tapestry spanning thousands of years. This is the vast story of human attempts to find some order in an unruly world; or, perhaps, to impose on a reluctant world the order that humans find within themselves. It is a history as wide, deep and tangled as that of humanity itself

Of the 470 agents sent to France only 26 female agents returned and none have ever told their story before. Phyllis "Pippa" Latour was parachuted into France aged 23; she bravely travelled around the rural French countryside, concealing her codes in a hair tie and her Morse key underneath her bicycle seat, and sending crucial information back to Britain in the lead-up to D-Day.More than once, she came frighteningly close to being discovered.For decades, Pippa told no one - not even her family - of her incredible feats. Now for the first time, her astonishing story can be told in full.*Number one overall in its first week on the New Zealand Nielsen Bookscan charts April 2025.

Caesarian Legionary vs Pompeian Legionary
A fully illustrated study of the troops fighting for Caesar and Pompey in three major battles of the Roman Civil War.Triggered by the tensions surrounding Julius Caesar’s return to Rome from Gaul, the civil war that broke out in 49 BC convulsed the Roman world. Commanders and troops loyal to Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, known as Pompey, confronted those following Caesar in a series of brutal battles across the Mediterranean, from Hispania to Greece.William Horsted assesses the similarities and differences between the evolving Caesarian and Pompeian armies, which included not only Roman legions but also auxiliaries from Gaul, Numidia and elsewhere. Even after Pompey’s defeat at Pharsalus (48 BC) and his subsequent death in Egypt, the conflict continued, with Pompey’s relatives and followers continuing the fight until 45 BC. The two armies are examined in the context of three major clashes of the conflict: Dyrrachium (48 BC) in present-day Albania; Thapsus (46 BC) in modern Tunisia; and Munda (45 BC) in Spain. The text is complemented by specially commissioned colour artwork and mapping as well as archive photographs.
Write Through It
Discover what every new and aspiring author needs to know about the publishing industry and how to navigate all the complicated feelings that come with writing a book in this no-nonsense guide from literary agent, author, and creator of the popular newsletter Agents & Books Kate McKean.
Writers all want the secret to getting published: the magic formula for a query letter, the list of agents who will instantly say yes, and the perfect marketing campaign to hit "The List." But writing is about so much more than the intellectual act of putting pen to paper-writers also deserve reassurance that the emotional highs and lows of writing is a normal, valid part of the process. And it might seem easier to focus on the nuts and bolts of writing books-word counts, query letters, and author platforms-than the messy feelings that accompany writing like doubt, fear, and hope, but the two things are inextricably linked.
Write Through It is a candid, actionable guide to navigating the rollercoaster ride of writing and publishing, both on and off the page. Literary agent and author Kate McKean has been educating authors and demystifying publishing for years in her popular newsletter Agents & Books, and now, in these pages, she walks writers of all genres through every stage of the writing and publishing process and its accompanying emotional moments. From the uncertainty of knowing when you should stop fiddling with your book and start pitching to agents to how to deal with the sting of rejection and the elation (and fear) of getting a book deal, Write Through It covers it all.
Drawing from her own extensive experience, McKean goes beyond the practicalities of writing and publishing to address the less-talked-about emotional side of the journey. This book is a must-read for any writer looking to understand the full spectrum of the writing life.

Barholm Castle
In 1999, Barholm Castle in Galloway had lain ruinous and derelict for over two hundred years when Janet Brennan-Inglis and her husband John bought it as a restoration project. Together with a team of architects, surveyors and builders, overseen by Historic Scotland, they turned this sixteenth-century tower house into a domestic residence once again – this time with central heating, bathrooms and a twenty-first-century kitchen. Since the restoration, they have researched the history of Barholm Castle and the McCulloch family who owned it; the stories they uncovered and the account of the painstaking restoration of Barholm Castle are told in this book.Having restored the tower, Janet and John turned their attention to the ground around it and set about developing a very special garden landscape. The third part of the book describes the process of transforming the wild area surrounding the castle into a series of mature gardens, providing a colourful and dramatic setting for the castle.
No Lost Causes Club
Part confessional memoir, part vital guide, No Lost Causes Club is a compassionate exploration of what navigating sobriety looks like in our modern world, from the author behind the popular Instagram account @brutalrecovery. When she was told that her life expectancy could be as low as twenty-five if she did not stop drinking, Lauren felt absolutely nothing – then the sparks of despair. How was she here? Surely, sobriety was for middle-aged divorcées who’d lost everything, not young, struggling singers who didn’t have anything to lose in the first place? Besides, when alcohol is the only medicine that makes the world feel bearable, how can you possibly stop taking it? Six years later, Lauren has found her way to an intricate answer. Entwining practical, empathetic suggestions with intimate memoir, No Lost Causes Club is an intrinsically vulnerable and brutally honest exploration of what living a full life after you get clean looks like. From delving into the social complexities that often leave people hopelessly dependent on alcohol, to centring the struggles of those newly navigating sobriety, this book is a soothing balm for anyone wondering how to carve a beautiful life from a world that never made sense before.
