Zlatý vek Pálffyovcov v 18. storočí
Monografia v troch kapitolách predstavuje historické a umelecko-historické okruhy záujmov autoriek o dejiny a výtvarné pamiatky pálffyovského rodu „osvietenského“ storočia. Hlavný prínos predloženej vedeckej monografie je v novom, hutnejšom, komplexnejšom a plastickejšom pohľade na Pálffyovcov 18. storočia: niekde dominuje prístup skrze hĺbkové mikrosondy, inde analyticky - s cieľom vytvoriť kontextovaný a do istej miery syntetizujúci obraz mocensko-politického, sociálneho a ekonomického kapitálu, ktorým Pálffyovci disponovali v 18. storočí. Pálffyovskú lojalitu voči Habsburgovcom náležite vizuálne demonštrovali portréty habsburských panovníkov a príslušníkov vládnuceho rakúskeho domu Habsburgovcov, ktoré podľa dobových prameňov v pálffyovských zbierkach jestvovali, no len v malom počte sa dodnes na Slovensku zachovali. Prepojením medzi týmito dvomi témami je napokon aj výnimočne introspektívna mikrosonda do mentálneho sveta, privátnych i verejných postojov Jána V. Pálffyho k celospoločenským relevantným politickým udalostiam počas vlády cisárov Jozefa I. a Karola VI.
Psychosomatika pro lékaře, psychoterapeuty i laiky, 3. vydání
Proč a jak reaguje tělo na psychickou zátěž?
Proč své tělo zneužíváme?
Kdo nese vinu za psychosomatické onemocnění?
Proč máme strach z psychoterapie?
Rozhodují o vzniku psychosomatických onemocnění individuální problémy pacienta a genetické dispozice, nebo také civilizační vlivy a společenské podmínky?
Na všechny tyto otázky odpovídá MUDr. PhDr. Jan Poněšický, Ph.D. – lékař, psycholog, psychoterapeut a psychoanalytik. Nastiňuje souvislosti mezi biologickým fungováním našeho těla a psychikou v reakci na zátěžové situace. Pacienti i lékaři se často omezují na hledání tělesných příčin onemocnění. K harmonizaci pak používají léky působící pouze na výsledné symptomy. Skutečná duševní podstata nemoci však zůstává skryta a neléčena. Budeme tedy hledat příčiny úporných bolestí hlavy v kostech a svalech, nebo spíše v nevyřešených osobních problémech? Jan Poněšický přináší psychoterapeuticky odborné, přesto však všeobecně srozumitelné vysvětlení. Kniha shrnuje dosavadní názory lékařů a psychologů, zabývajících se psychosomatickými souvislostmi nemocí, a zároveň předává autorovy dlouholeté zkušenosti v tomto nejstarším (a zároveň nejmodernějším) oboru medicíny, jehož krédem je: Nemocí netrpí jenom postižený orgán, ale celý člověk.

The Black Death in England
We have all heard of the Black Death and how it scythed its way through England and the rest of Europe in the late 1340s, and we hear that a third or perhaps even half of the entire English population died in this terrible pandemic. However the numbers are so vast that the victims become little more than statistics. They blur into a kind of unreality, a mute testimony to a catastrophe beyond imagination or comprehension. The Black Death in England aims to rectify this by giving names to some of the people who died in the fourteenth-century epidemics of the Plague Years and recognises those who lived through it, recreating something of their lives and what they went through.

Židovský cintorín v Banskej Štiavnici
Kniha ponúka jedinečný pohľad na životy štiavnických Židov prostredníctvom básnických epitafov na náhrobných kameňoch. Každý nápis na náhrobku je originálnou poctou zosnulému, odhaľuje jeho osobnosť, osud a miesto v komunite. Tieto poetické verše sú doplnené o autentické životné príbehy, ktoré autorka zrekonštruovala na základe historických prameňov, rodinných spomienok a archívnych záznamov. Sú to príbehy ľudí, ktorý tu žili svoj každodenný život a ich telá spočívajú na malebnom cintoríne nad Banskou Štiavnicou. Čitateľ sa ponorí aj do stručnej histórie pochovávania v židovských komunitách, čo sa vždy spája aj s akousi mystikou pretkanou mnohými poverami a predsudkami.
Wollstonecraft
Famous as the author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, Mary Wollstonecraft was a wide-ranging and controversial moral and political philosopher. She engaged with many of the most polarising issues of her day: criticising social hierarchies, advocating for educational reform, analysing the French Revolution, and challenging men’s political dominance. In this illuminating introduction, Alan Coffee argues that the originality of Wollstonecraft’s feminist arguments is best understood within the context of a systematic and comprehensive philosophical system built up from a set of ‘simple’ theological and moral principles. An effective way to approach this is through the concept of freedom as independence. Drawing on all of Wollstonecraft’s works, including her novels, reviews and letters, Coffee shows how the ideal of independence illuminates and unites many of her intellectual preoccupations and her contribution to contemporary debates, such as on the structural nature of social injustice and the republican notion of freedom as non-domination. This gripping account of Wollstonecraft’s work sheds new light on one of the most important eighteenth-century thinkers.
The Collapse of Global Liberalism
In the 1990s, a vision emerged of a frictionless world of globalization in which the West would become ever richer on the basis of a tech-based service economy, all underpinned by a rules-based liberal international order. It became the basis for the mainstream politics of centre-left and right. Philip Pilkington argues that this vision was always delusional and is now dying. It is based on a doctrinaire and unrealistic form of liberalism and has given rise to hollowed-out financialised economies and disintegrating societies that can barely even reproduce their population or meet their energy needs. The US and UK find themselves ill-equipped to compete with China and other non-liberal states within an emerging post-liberal order in which what really matters is industrial capacity, realpolitik and military strength. Only by abandoning our liberal delusions and advancing our own brand of hard-headed post-liberalism can the West survive. No clear-sighted observer of contemporary geopolitics can afford to miss this bracing diagnosis of the West’s malaise and bold agenda for renewal. Also available as an audiobook.
WW2 Codebreaking Events and Organisations
The second volume of a series on a glossary of codebreaking, WW2 Codebreaking Events and Organisations, brings to the reader an easily understandable account and listing, of those organisations involved in collecting and analysing military intelligence principally during the second world war. A listing of key events or occurrences is provided which moulded the direction of codebreaking and gathering of enemy intelligence. Whilst Bletchley Park was the HQ of codebreaking activities in wartime, numerous organisations became involved in a support role, and this became critical when more advanced enemy encoding machines were introduced by the Nazis. The evolution of certain organisations over time, can be tracked to a degree, by reading the glossary in depth.The entries are cross-referenced to enable the reader to research as much or as little as they want, to dip-in to the glossary, to use it as a basis for further study, or just to learn a little more about the people and organisations that helped us win the war with our allied friends.
Komu sa nelení, tomu sa zelení
Pro-environmentálne správanie a pro-environmentálna nečinnosť sú vo vedeckej monografii objasnené vo svetle aktuálnych - domácich i zahraničných – empirických poznatkov. Odpoveď na otázku : prečo a za akých okolností môžu byť ľudia pro-environmentálne činní a/alebo nečinní, hľadá autorka v kontexte kognitívnych a emocionálnych procesov, ako aj návyku. Syntéza vedeckých poznatkov je obohatená o súbor troch výskumných štúdií, ktoré boli autorkou realizované na vzorke slovenských participantov. Pozornosť sa v nich venuje jednak psychometrickej analýze škál ekologickej úzkosti, ako aj korelátom a prediktorom pro-environmentálneho správania a jeho bariér.
Zázračné léky - Neobyčejné výhody a znepokojivá rizika nových léků na hubnutí
Autor bestsellerů Ztráta spojení a Ukradená pozornost nabízí objevný pohled na nový lék, který mění naše představy o hubnutí. V lednu 2023 si Johann Hari začal jednou týdně aplikovat injekce přípravku Ozempic, který způsobuje výrazný úbytek hmotnosti. Zatímco přibližně 80 % diet selhává, ten, kdo užívá tento lék, zhubne až čtvrtinu své tělesné hmotnosti za šest měsíců.
Mohou být tento a podobné léky skutečně tak dobré, jak se zdá?
Jsou zázračným řešením, nebo jen lákavým trikem?
Hledání odpovědí na tyto otázky vedlo autora na cestu z Islandu do Minneapolisu a Tokia a k rozhovorům s předními světovými odborníky na danou problematiku.
Zjistil však, že s obrovskými výhodami je spojeno dvanáct významných potenciálních rizik a také, že tyto drogy radikálně zpochybňují to, co si myslíme, že víme o studu, síle vůle a uzdravování.
Co odhalují o podstatě obezity jako takové?
Jaké psychické problémy se začnou objevovat, když jsou naše stravovací návyky náhle narušeny?
Jsou tyto léky vysvobozením, nebo dalším příznakem našeho hluboce dysfunkčního vztahu k jídlu?
Ozempic a podobné léky se chystají změnit náš svět, k lepšímu i horšímu. Každý musí pochopit, jak fungují - vědecky, emocionálně i kulturně. Kniha Zázračný lék je nezbytným průvodcem revolucí, která již začala a která bude podle jednoho z předních odborníků stejně transformační jako vynález chytrého telefonu.
Carthage's Other Wars
Carthage was the western Mediterranean’s first superpower, long before Rome, and her military history was powerful, eventful, and chequered even before her ‘Punic Wars’ against Rome. Although characterized in the surviving sources and modern studies as a predominantly mercantile state, Carthage fought many wars, both aggressive and defensive, before and in between the contests with the Roman parvenus. The Greek states of Sicily, above all Syracuse under its tyrants Dionysius the Great and then Agathocles, were her most resolute opponents, but in North Africa itself, in Sardinia, and later on in Spain she won—and sometimes lost—major wars. This is the first full-length study dedicated to these other wars which furthered Carthage’s interests for over half a millennium. The book is based firmly and analytically on the ancient sources, and among many insights is that Carthage, though usually considered a naval power, did more fighting on land than at sea and with more success.
Rebel Russia
Navalny. Lenin. Pugachev. The Russian rebel – in his epic battle against the Leviathan of the Russian state – has enthralled readers and writers for decades. The rebel's story is almost always a sad one that ends in exile, imprisonment, or martyrdom, leaving but a seed for the future reform of the Leviathan which he or she had taken on. Why do revolts – from the Decembrist uprising to the Snow Revolution that brought Alexei Navalny to the forefront of contemporary Russian politics – seem to end up failing or producing an even worse form of despotism? In reality, the brave words and deeds of dissidents have shaped the course of Russian history more often than we might think. Through the stories of prominent rebels from the time of Ivan the Terrible to the present day, as well as her own experiences reporting on her country’s decent into authoritarianism, Russian-American journalist Anna Arutunyan explores how the rebel and the Tsar defined each other through a centuries-long dance of dissent and repression. These characters and their lives not only reveal the true nature of the Russian state, they also offer hope for a future Russian democracy. Also available as an audiobook.
Transgender Rights vs Women's Rights
“Trans rights are human rights!” “Women’s rights are human rights!” Yes, but the human rights of two groups often conflict. The only way to resolve these conflicts is through calm, rational, public debate. Freedom of expression protects the right of women to question certain demands by trans rights activists, even if this might offend. Raising conflicts between transgender rights and women’s rights is not “transphobic”, because disagreement is not hatred. The concept of “transphobia” should be defined narrowly as statements or acts indicating hostility or prejudice towards transgender persons. If the right to speak about conflicts is protected, and we start by acknowledging the broad areas of agreement about the human rights of transgender people, we can turn to the substance of these conflicts. Should it be possible for an individual to change their legal sex? If so, how easy should it be? Should it be changeable only after a diagnosis of gender dysphoria and a waiting period? Or should it be sufficient to “self-identify” as a person of the opposite sex? Or should sex be removed from birth certificates, so that there is nothing to change? Robert Wintemute carefully examines these conflicts, considers the differences between transgender rights and lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) rights, and proposes ways to achieve co-existence between transgender rights and women’s and children’s rights. Also available as an audiobook.
Titanic
This is the only book ever published which concentrates on Titanic people from one particular region – Greater Manchester. The RMS Titanic disaster, which occurred on the night of 14/15 April 1912, is one of history’s most catastrophic human tragedies, which resulted in a terrible sacrifice of life. The people on board were proud to be part of the ship’s maiden voyage, but what they didn’t know was that it was destined to be its only voyage. The county of Greater Manchester in the north-west of England is made up of the Metropolitan boroughs of Bolton, Bury, Manchester, Oldham, Rochdale, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford and Wigan. More than 30 people from the region had connections with RMS Titanic - they being a mixture of passengers and crew, and the majority of them lost their lives. This is the story of who they were, what happened to them during the disaster, and what the future held for those who survived. Some of them left detailed accounts of the horrific incident.
The Writer's Lot
A pioneering social history of French writers during the Age of Revolution, from a world-renowned scholar and National Book Critics Circle Award winner. In eighteenth-century France, writers emerged as a new kind of power. They stirred passions, shaped public opinion, and helped topple the Bourbon monarchy. Whether scribbling in dreary garrets or philosophizing in salons, they exerted so much influence that the state kept them under constant surveillance. A few became celebrities, but most were hacks, and none could survive without patrons or second jobs. The Writer’s Lot is the first book to move beyond individual biography to take the measure of “literary France” as a whole. Historian Robert Darnton parses forgotten letters, manuscripts, police reports, private diaries, and newspapers to show how writers made careers and how they fit into the social order—or didn’t. Reassessing long-standing narratives of the French Revolution, Darnton shows that to be a reject was not necessarily to be a Jacobin: the toilers of the Parisian Grub Street sold their words to revolutionary publishers and government ministers alike. And while literary France contributed to the downfall of the ancien régime, it did so through its example more than its ideals: the contradiction inherent in the Republic of Letters—in theory, open to all; in practice, dominated by a well-connected clique—dramatized the oppressiveness of the French social system. Darnton brings his trademark rigor and investigative eye to the character of literary France, from the culture war that pitted the “decadent” Voltaire against the “radical” Rousseau to struggling scribblers, booksellers, censors, printers, and royal spies. Their lives, little understood until now, afford rare insight into the ferment of French society during the Age of Revolution.
Fighting for Hitler
Fighting for Hitler intricately weaves together the personal stories of German historical witnesses across thematic chapters, covering diverse facets of the wartime experience. From the frontlines of battle to the harrowing conditions in POW camps, these narratives are enriched with personal documents and photographs, vividly providing the human face of history.This book is more than just a chronicle of events; it is a profound exploration of human suffering and memory. Each testimony contributes to a larger mosaic, unveiling the emotional and psychological landscapes of those who endured one of history''s darkest periods.Included are stories from the Eastern Front, from the invasion of Poland to Operation Barbarossa and the fierce fighting at Stalingrad. The book also contains accounts from those who served in the Kriegsmarine, depicting life on a battleship and gripping U-Boat battles. The book goes on to cover D-Day, the fall of the Reich, and stories of survival in POW camps across the globe. The author''s dedication to impartial presentation allows these stories to resonate on their own, providing a rare and invaluable perspective on the past. Years of painstaking research, translation, and editing have transformed this book into a treasure trove for scholars and general readers alike. It serves as a vital preservation of a generation’s voices, fostering a deeper understanding of how the Third Reich''s profoundly impacted ordinary lives.By presenting these accounts in their unaltered and honest form, the author ensures that the true essence of these experiences is captured and conveyed.
Prehistoric London
Despite the vast amount of work written and published about London, there has never before been a full-length book covering the history of that part of the Thames Valley before the arrival of the Romans. Beginning in the Cretaceous Era, which ended 66 million years ago, Prehistoric London examines the geology of this part of Britain and explains why this particular section of the Thames proved to be the ideal location for a city. It describes, too, the animals and people who were attracted to the area by the conditions there.From the time of the dinosaurs, through to the Iron Age and the Roman invasion in 43 AD, this is a comprehensive account of London before London. It is the story of the land, and those who dwelt there, before anybody had thought of founding a city on the banks of the Thames. In addition to being a history book, though, Prehistoric London is also a lively guidebook which explains how to explore modern London and find such things as Iron Age hillforts and a site where anybody can dig sharks’ teeth from the sand of a 55-million-year-old seabed.This book will reveal the backstory of London and show readers what was happening in the capital long before a single stone was laid of the city we know today.
