Good Friends
FRIENDSHIP IS THE GREAT LOVE STORY WE’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR. Friendship is good for your health. Studies show that loneliness is as deadly as smoking fifteen cigarettes a day. Still, we are not taught how to be good friends to one another. We cancel plans, lose touch, blame technology, and neglect our non-romantic loved ones. In Good Friends, author Priya Vulchi explores friendships across history, continents, and identities to show how friendship can open up new levels of joy and community in your life. What is the meaning of friendship, these miraculous bonds with once-strangers? How do you begin friendships? End them? Keep them vibrant? For answers, Vulchi weaves through Western classical thinkers like Plato, Aristotle, and Cicero, and uncovers the private moments between good friends like James Baldwin, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Yuri Kochiyama, Toni Morrison, and June Jordan. Friendship, she shows, has ripple effects beyond just any two friends; it awakens solidarity and changes in the world. Through her inspiring and impassioned prose, Vulchi entirely reimagines our platonic ties, revealing that friendship, in the right hands, is a brilliant act of love and resistance. Intimate and engaging, Good Friends offers a resounding cry that friendship is not only vital for our own individual well-being, but for humanity itself. It invites you to be inspired not just by what people do but how people love. It invites you to look at your friends differently and enter a dazzlingly fresh philosophy of human connection.
Cesta pútnika
Úplne nová nádherná edícia tejto svetoznámej alegórie, ktorú v popularite na svete predbieha len Biblia. Toto dielo opisuje cestu manželov - Kresťana a Kresťanky - z Mesta skazy do Nebeského mesta. Ide o nádherný obraz cesty spasenia - od vnútorného boja a usvedčenia z hriechu v duši hľadajúcich vyvolaných posolstvom Biblie, cez ich obrátenie sa celým srdcom ku Kristovi a nájdenie pokoja a zmierenia s Bohom, až po ich následné putovanie životom rôznych skúšok, ktorým čelia všetci zachránení veriaci, a ich slávny vstup do Nebeského mesta k milovanému Spasiteľovi.
,,Hriech sa musí zmyť krvou Spasiteľa a nie prikryť pláštikom náboženstva.,,
C. H. Spurgeon

Ženy, které zůstaly
Migrace neznamená jen odchod člověka do zahraničí. Neoddělitelnou součástí tohoto fenoménu jsou rodiny, které zůstaly doma – nejčastěji ženy a děti. Co se s nimi děje? Jaký je jejich každodenní život například v Mexiku, Senegalu, Etiopii, ale také v Rumunsku nebo na Slovensku? Jak čelí globálním výzvám, nutícím jejich muže, syny nebo otce k odchodu? O tom píše reportérka Magdaléna Rojo v knize Ženy, které zůstaly.
Je to kniha o migraci. Nebo spíše o mateřství? Dětství bez otců? Životě bez manželů? Stárnutí bez dětí? Všichni ti anonymní lidé, kteří hledají práci jinde než doma, mají své lidské tváře a příběhy. Jen se odehrávají mimo zájem velkého světa. Reportérka Magdaléna Rojo se na toto globální téma dívá z jiného úhlu – pohledem obyvatel míst, kde se rodí důvody k migraci, optikou žen, které zůstaly. Společně s ní se vydáváme nejen do Mexika, Senegalu, Etiopie nebo Indie, ale i do Evropy. Všude tam, kde žijí rodiny, které své členy vyprovázejí na delší kratší cesty, aby jim na oplátku zabezpečili důstojné živobytí. Ženy a jejich děti zůstávají a musejí si poradit samy, čekat na návrat svých blízkých nebo na peníze, které posílají. Magdalénu Rojo jejich osudy zajímaly a rozhodla se je zblízka poznat a pochopit. Výsledkem je sbírka citlivých, osobních reportáží. Díky své trpělivosti a zájmu nám odhaluje každodenní život rodin, který naplňuje čekání, nejistota a obavy. Zjišťujeme, že důvody migrace jsou vlastně v celém světě velmi podobné. A podobné jsou i starosti žen, které zůstaly. Nedostavěné domy. Stále cizejší tváře mužů na displejích telefonů. A každodenní, neměnné povinnosti. Autorem fotografií v knize Ženy, které zůstaly je dokumentární fotograf Noel Rojo. Vychází v edici Prokletí reportéři v překladu Miroslava Zelinského.

Jak na dopamin
Tento praktický průvodce vznikl jako doplněk k obsáhlejší úspěšné knize Dopamin (Triton 2022). Autorka vychází ze základní myšlenky, že hojnost sama o sobě je stresorem, který celosvětově přispívá k rostoucímu počtu závislostí, depresí, úzkostí a sebevražd. Zavádí pojem paradox hojnosti: čím bohatší je země a čím dostupnější je léčba duševních poruch, tím nešťastnější, depresivnější a úzkostnější jsou její obyvatelé. Neustálé vystavování se rychlým požitkům mění mozek. Trpíme stresem z nadbytku.
Průvodce je určen každému, kdo se rozhodne změnit způsoby, jimiž se odměňuje. Pomůže vám lépe se zorientovat v problematice patologického potěšení a bolesti. Díky množství interaktivních cvičení a inspirativních příkladů budete schopni přesněji určit návykové látky a způsoby chování, o jejichž omezení či změně uvažujete. Získáte návod, jak si naplánovat, zahájit a úspěšně dokončit dopaminový půst, dopracovat se k přenastavení drah odměny v mozku a v konečném důsledku vést zdravější, spokojenější a plnohodnotnější život.

Polární ekologie Svalbardu
V polárních oblastech se nacházejí jedinečné, ale zranitelné a často i ohrožené ekosystémy, které si zasluhují podrobnější studium. Pro Evropany je ideálním místem pro první seznámení se s polárními oblastmi arktické souostroví Svalbard, neboť je to místo logisticky dobře přístupné a současně nabízející člověkem dosud velmi málo ovlivněné biotopy, které mají díky přísné ochraně norské správy velkou naději na to, že zůstanou zachovány i pro příští generace. Svalbard je zároveň jakousi živoucí učebnicí, pomocí níž lze ilustrovat obecné ekologické zákonitosti sahající od neživé přírody přes mikroorganismy až k cévnatým rostlinám a živočichům včetně člověka. Autoři této knihy – odborníci z různých přírodovědných oborů – vybrali nejnázornější příklady těchto zákonitostí ze svalbardské přírody, aby s nimi seznámili širokou veřejnost. Kniha s bohatým obrazovým materiálem může sloužit jako příručka pro studenty vysokých i středních škol, ale také jako zdroj základních informací o polární ekologii pro zájemce o tuto pozoruhodnou disciplínu.
The Second World War in Cartoons
Humour is a vital ingredient for the morale of a nation at war. From Britain’s John Bull mocking a diminutive Napoleon carving up the world, the caricatures of a bombastic Kaiser in the First World War, to an often demented looking Hitler, cartoons have not only portrayed the enemy in a satirical light but have raised a smile in the darkest of times.Self-depreciating humour is also a facet of cartoons during wartime – making fun of incumbent politicians and incompetent generals – while at the same time challenging the decisions of those in powerful positions in a manner meant to embarrass. Indeed, cartoons often carry a serious message which exemplifies the subject far more impactfully than the written word.It is also the case that cartoons can broach subjects too sensitive to be touched upon in editorials or by columnists. Such is the case with this absorbing, if light-hearted view of the Second World War portraying the seismic events of the conflict in a fashion which everyone at the time could understand and nod their appreciation to with a smile on their lips.The Second World War in Cartoons begins in the aftermath of the First World War. It then covers the events that lead to a resurgent Germany and the slow march to war. This is followed by the inevitable references to the Phoney War and to Hitler’s ‘Sink-on-Sight Navy’ after the Graf Spee had been scuttled by her captain.A more serious tone is undertaken during Britain’s darkest hour, the cartoons reflecting both Churchill’s stubborn determination to resist as well as encouraging the fighter boys to stop Goering’s Luftwaffe. Gradually, the mood changes as Britain’s strategic position improves. When the war ended with victory in Europe, a cartoon of Germany depicts a notice ‘Under New Management’.Churchill’s defeat in the 1945 general election resulted in one cartoonist declaring that Britain had ‘dropped its pilot’ and, ever a cartoonist’s favourite character, among the final images is that of Churchill declaring an Iron Curtain had descended across the Continent, as the Cold War took its grip.This is the biggest book ever published on political cartoons and each of these wonderful cartoons is provided with a full explanation of the historical background, and its relevance to the events of the day.
The Great Hum
Dive into an ocean of Buddhist wisdom with this masterful immersion in Shantideva’s well-known guide to the boundless spirit of the bodhisattva.Shantideva’s Way of the Bodhisattva (Bodhicaryavatara) is without a doubt one of the greatest masterpieces of Indian Buddhism and the single most influential text on Mahayana ethical theory. Since it was composed in the eighth century, it has continuously animated the living tradition—especially in Tibet, but now in the West as well—as more translations have become available. Its poetic evocations of the spirit of awakening allow readers to enter the mind of the bodhisattva. Nineteenth-century master Minyak Kunzang Sonam composed what came to be the most extensive commentary in any language on Shantideva''s masterpiece. This commentary came to be known as the Great Hum because it fills the entirety of the third or hum volume of the author’s collected works. Citing hundreds of sutras, he shows how Shantideva’s verses are beautifully integrated within, and express, the Buddhist textual universe. In particular he ties Shantideva’s verses with the Anthology of Training, the thematic collection of scriptural citations also compiled by Shantideva, creating a detailed tapestry of Mahayana thought and practice. Kunzang Sonam’s commentary on the philosophically rich ninth “Wisdom” chapter was published previously as The Profound Reality of Interdependence, and this volume presents his commentary on the first eight chapters, detailing the generation of the spirit of awakening, the cultivation of positive qualities, and the practice of meditation. Embedded in the commentary is a fresh translation of Shantideva’s verses, making this an unparalleled guide to appreciating their layers of meaning and applying them in one’s practice and life.
Hitler’s Atrocities against Allied PoWs
Seventy years ago, the Nuremberg Trials were in full swing in Germany. In the dock were the leaders of the Nazi regime and most eventually received their just desserts. But what happened to the other war criminal? n June 1946, Lord Russell of Liverpool became Deputy Judge Advocate and legal adviser to the Commander in Chief for the British Army of the Rhine in respect of all trials held by British Military Courts of German war criminals. He later wrote;''At the outbreak of the Second World War, the treatment of prisoners was governed by the Geneva Prisoner of War Convention of 1929, the Preamble of which stated that the aim of the signatories was to alleviate the conditions of prisoners of war.''During the war, however, the provisions of the Convention were repeatedly disregarded by Germany. Prisoners were subjected to brutality and ill-treatment, employed on prohibited and dangerous work, handed over to the SD for "special treatment" in pursuance of Hitler''s Commando Order, lynched in the streets by German civilians, sent to concentration camps, shot on recapture after escaping, and even massacred after they had laid down their arms and surrendered.''Tens of thousands of Allied prisoners of war died at the hands of the Nazis and their Italian allies. This book is for them – lest we forget.
Japanese Submarines in World War Two
The Imperial Japanese Navy developed the submarine faster than any other country in the world. But because of rivalries between the two military hierarchies, the Army and the Navy, they never utilized the submarine to its full extent. Nevertheless, during World War II, Japan deployed a number of unique submarines. These included the Type B1 which carried a Yokosuka E14Y1 reconnaissance seaplane in a watertight capsule attached to the deck of the submarine. One of these aircraft carried out two bomb attacks on a forest in Oregon by dropping six incendiary bombs, taking the war to the American mainland. The use of aircraft from submarines as scout planes proved not to be as successful as hoped, mainly because of the difficulty after launching the aircraft of it finding the submarine again in the vast Pacific and Indian Oceans. The Japanese also developed the giant I-400 class of aircraft carrier submarines, that could launch three Seiran attack floatplanes. There were other notable actions involving IJN submarines. This included I-17 that attempted to shell, unsuccessfully, an oil refinery off the coast of Santa Barbara, causing a major panic along the West Coast of America. Also memorable are the midget submarines that attempted to attack Pearl Harbor, and the one-man human torpedo submarines (Kaiten). The submarine losses suffered by the Japanese Navy as the war progressed, when Allied, and in particular U.S. destroyers and aircraft hunted them down are all recorded in this comprehensive account of a fascinating element of the war at sea.
The Curiohaus Trials
Mention war crimes trials to almost anyone and they will respond with one word, ‘Nuremberg.’ Most think there was only one trial following the Second World War, the International Military Tribunal, but this trial indicted only 24 defendants. They represented the most senior Nazis accused of conspiracy, crimes against peace, war crimes and crimes against humanity. But few were involved directly in any of the millions of individual atrocities. The victorious allies, the Soviet Union, the USA, Britain and France, tried hundreds of other cases in many different cities. The British trials took place in several locations in Germany, but most war criminals in British custody faced prosecution in one city. The Curiohaus Trials immerses readers in the untold story of war crimes trials that took place in a miraculously intact concert hall in war-torn Hamburg. Using freshly examined archive material, cross-referenced sources and information from the scenes of the crimes, this gripping account unveils the complex legal proceedings in courtrooms where orchestras previously played. Step by step, readers become immersed in the gathering of evidence, moving testimony and the intricate pursuit of truth. Amidst the search for justice, however, moral and ethical dilemmas arose. The book explores the challenges faced by prosecutors, defence lawyers and judges who had to navigate the fine line between seeking retribution and ensuring a fair trial in a shattered post-war society. It reveals an almost exclusive reliance on eye-witness testimony (even when physical evidence was available), a shocking decline in appetite to try those responsible for grievous atrocities and an astonishing absence of justice at the end of the process. The Curiohaus Trials is an essential read for those interested in modern history, international law and the search for justice.
Bayonet to Barrage
How did technical advances in weaponry alter the battlefield during the reign of Queen Victoria? In 1845, in the first Anglo-Sikh War, the outcome was decided by the bayonet; just over fifty years later, in the second Boer War, the combatants were many miles apart. How did this transformation come about, and what impact did it have on the experience of the soldiers of the period? Stephen Manning, in this meticulously researched and vividly written study, describes the developments in firepower and, using the first-hand accounts of the soldiers, shows how their perception of battle changed.Innovations like the percussion and breech-loading rifle influenced the fighting in the Crimean War of the 1850s and the colonial campaigns of the 1870s and 1880s, in particular in the Anglo-Zulu War and the wars in Egypt and Sudan. The machine gun was used to deadly effect at the Battle of Omdurman in 1898, and equally dramatic advances in artillery took warfare into a new era of tactics and organisation.Stephen Manning’s work provides the reader with an accurate and fascinating insight into a key aspect of nineteenth-century military history.
Iwo Jima: The Marine Corps’ Epic Victory
The campaign for Iwo Jima (Operation Detachment) from 19 February–26 March 1945 pitted the USMC Fifth Amphibious Corps (VAC) and the USN’s Fifth Fleet against the IJA 109th Division and assorted IJN ground troops under the command of Lieutenant General Tadamichi Kuribayashi. After neutralizing Japanese air assets on Iwo Jima, the objective was to seize Iwo Jima’s two completed airfields in the southern and central sectors and make them operational after the heavy pre- and post-invasion aerial, naval and Marine artillery bombardment. USAAF 7th Fighter Command would then have this Volcano Island as a base from which to escort the four-engine B-29 heavy bombers on their Japanese Home Islands’ raids from their Mariana Islands bases and to provide emergency airfields for battle-damaged or low-on-fuel Superfortresses on their return flight that otherwise would have crashed in the sea. The combined American force numbered over 100,000 troops against 20,933 Japanese soldiers and sailors. Kuribayashi’s defences were so well fortified with caves, tunnels and daunting terrain that the VAC lost 6,821 KIA and 19,217 wounded compared to approximately 18,000 Japanese troops KIA or MIA with only 216 prisoners taken. In a ‘mopping up’ phase to clear the remaining Japanese hidden in the island’s caves, the Army’s 147th IR, 37th Division captured an additional 867 prisoners. This epic USMC campaign resulted in an unprecedented ratio of three American casualties for every two Japanese soldiers. In all, 2,251 emergency B-29 landings were made saving the lives of almost 25,000 aircrew members. The flagraisings atop Mount Suribachi on 23 February 1945 galvanized American morale at home.

Vichy's Last Castle
Comic-operetta stage set, or ghost town haunted by the walking dead – Sigmaringen still fascinates long after its collapse at the end of the Second World War. This enclave of French Vichy officials and fascists on German soil – refugees and hostages maintained at the Nazis’ pleasure – played out the last residue of French collaborationism in the closing months of the war, presided over by the inert figurehead of Marshal Pétain, against the fairytale backdrop of Sigmaringen Castle. No single English-language history of the Sigmaringen enclave exists, yet it brought together some of the most colourful and controversial collaborationists, from the militant French SS officer Joseph Darnand to the delirious writer Louis-Ferdinand Céline, in a petri dish for the last samples of the collaborationism that had infected France and laid her low.Vichy’s Last Castle brings together contemporary documents, eye-witness reports, diplomatic communiques and protests, and personal chronicles, alongside post-war analyses, war crimes trials, apologetics and memoirs, to provide a complete picture of the Sigmaringen enclave, from daily life to political chicanery. From the vain, formal protests of Marshal Pétain to the hallucinatory stream-of-consciousness of Céline, the book draws on contemporary photographs as well as texts to encapsulate this bizarre milieu, where the rank-and-file starved and suffered, while the elite played and plotted their tragicomic endgame, in a sublimely appropriate Wagnerian setting.
The 28th Infantry Division and the Battle of the Bulge
This book is not another battle chronicle. It is an examination of how the motivations of individual soldiers to fight and win can make the difference in battle, especially in the face of overwhelming odds. In December 1944, the American 28th Infantry Division occupied an 85-mile front extending along Germany''s borders with Belgium and Luxembourg. There they repelled a desperate attempt by Hitler to drive a wedge through the Allied lines to the port of Antwerp, which he believed would buy his scientists the time they needed to complete development of the super weapons forecast to turn the tide of the war. This book explores the first-hand accounts of men of the 28th Infantry Division, who, with extraordinary tenacity, held the line through December 1944 and January 1945, and the chaplains who attended their religious needs. It assesses the efforts of the U.S. government to inspire its soldiers to fight for the American way of life, and how these efforts filtered onto the battlefield, shaping the resolve of the men asked, if necessary, to make the ultimate sacrifice.
