Ubavit se k smrti
Postman ve své slavné knize tvrdí, že každá civilizace má své dominantní médium, které určuje, na co daná civilizace soustředí pozornost, což autor označuje výrazem „médium je metafora“. Autorova kniha vyšla v USA v osmdesátých letech minulého století, kdy dominovala televize, jeho kniha tedy pojednává především o vlivu tohoto média.
V televizi (ale platí to dodnes) je kladen výraz na vizuální stránku, zábavnost, senzačnost, emoce. Zprávy nemají v první řadě informovat, nýbrž být zajímavé. Divák nad nimi nestíhá přemýšlet, protože televize chrlí jednu zprávu za druhou. To ovlivňuje i způsob, jakým se prezentují politici nebo představitelé církví a jakým se učí na školách. Lidé nevolí politiky podle jejich politické vize, ale spíše podle vzhledu a zábavnosti. Žijeme ve „světě kukátka“, kde je informací mnoho, ale nedávají smysl. Být inteligentní znamená spíše vědět o ledasčem, a nikoli to skutečně znát. Z vážných věcí se stává show a z občanů pasivní konzumenti, kteří se smějí, aniž by vlastně věděli čemu. Autor vybízí, abychom kvůli vizuálním médiím neslevovali z intelektuálních potřeb a vážnosti, jež jsou podle něj typické pro kulturu tištěných médií.
Nádej, ktorú potrebuje tvoje srdce
NEMUSÍŠ SA ZMIERIŤ S POVRCHNÝM: „JE TO V POHODE“, KEĎ TI BOH PONÚKA VIAC. Život Holley Gerth sa krásne a hlboko zmenil po tom, čo lepšie spoznala Boží charakter a spôsob, akým nás Boh miluje. Uvedomila si, že nádej, radosť, pokoj a zmysel života, po ktorých všetci túžime, možno nájsť priamo v Božom srdci. Poznanie toho, kým je a ako sa o nás stará, nám dáva silu prekonať nepokoj a stres, ktoré v tomto uponáhľanom svete často zažívame.
Či už prechádzaš náročným obdobím, alebo len zápasíš s každodennými výzvami života, na týchto stránkach nájdeš povzbudenie, nádej a novú silu. Holley ti pomôže objaviť, že „Boh, ktorý rozhádzal hviezdy ako diamanty po zamatovej oblohe vesmíru, ktorý bdie aj nad každým vrabcom a stvoril nás všetkých, nás pozýva, aby sme k nemu prišli bližšie... On je tým, čo sme hľadali po celý čas.“
Proměňte svou nejistotu v sílu
Cítíte se v sociálních situacích nejistí — ať už při small talku v kuchyňce, na konferenci nebo při setkání s neznámými lidmi? Nejste sami. Sociální nejistota je mnohem běžnější, než si připouštíme. Nejde však o slabost, kterou je třeba překonat.
Tato kniha nabízí lidský, uklidňující pohled na strach z trapnosti či hodnocení druhými. Ukazuje nám, že nejistotu nemusíme potlačovat. Můžeme jí porozumět, přijmout ji — a dokonce ji proměnit ve svou výhodu. Díky skutečným příběhům a praktickým cvičením se naučíte vystoupit z bludného kruhu obav, přestanete se vyhýbat nekomfortním situacím a začnete k sobě být laskavější.
Když přestaneme vnímat nejistotu jako selhání, může se stát zdrojem empatie, citlivosti a hlubšího spojení s lidmi kolem nás.
Tato kniha je povzbudivým průvodcem pro každého, kdo chce přestat s nejistotou bojovat — a začít ji brát jako svou sílu.
Proměna myšlení - Nová věda o víře, názoru a přesvědčování
Tahle kniha zkoumá, proč je tak těžké změnit názor a jaké transformační účinky to má, když se o změnu pokusíte a podaří se vám. Ne v průběhu staletí, ale během necelé jedné generace, necelé dekády, a někdy i během jediné konverzace. Dozvíme se, co děláme špatně, když nedokážeme změnit něčí názor; setkáme se s experty, kteří téma studují, a strávíme čas s lidmi, kteří své názory změnili. Podle vědecké definice „přesvědčovat“ znamená měnit něčí názor bez použití nátlaku. Připravte se na nový pohled na často tabuizované téma!

From legendary beings like banshees and shape-shifting pookas to the watchful skeagh shee and the ferocious dobhar-chú, this field guide tells you everything you need to know about the creatures of Irish folklore and where to find them.

Adam's Sin, Our Humanity, and Christ's Redemption in Cyril of Alexandria
As a result of the neo-patristic movement of the early twentieth century, the teachings of original sin and atonement as understood in the West were questioned and reformulated based on what was believed to be early Eastern Christian patristic thought. This new paradigm proposed that humanity inherited death and corruption, but not sin, from Adam and that the purpose of the Incarnation and salvific work of Christ was to restore humanity from death and corruption, but not an inherent sinfulness.In contrast to this popular and seemingly dogmatic paradigm and false dichotomy between Western and Eastern teaching on sin and atonement, this volume asserts that the writings of many Eastern fathers of the early fifth century incorporate many, if not the majority, of the terms and teachings behind what have been labeled as Western departures concerning original sin and atonement. Through a comprehensive analysis of the writings of Cyril of Alexandria and some of his contemporaries in the early fifth century East during the time of the Pelagian controversy, this book demonstrates that a central and consistent theme of their soteriology revolves around the sinfulness and guilt of all humanity that is rooted in Adam''s sin by nature and is resolved only through recapitulation into the new root, the second Adam, the impeccable Christ. Christ''s impeccability is necessary to correct the state of sinfulness and guilt in humanity through his incarnation and spotless sacrifice on the cross as a ransom and substitute on behalf of and in exchange of all to satisfy the divine justice and to restore humanity to its original state in the divine image.
Trailblazers
In 1907, a lesbian feminist vegetarian stepped into male history. She was one of nineteen female Finnish politicians, the first women in the world to be elected to the ruling body of any country. These women sparked a chain reaction that would ignite across the globe. More – many, many more – were to follow. Trailblazers is the story of some of the most extraordinary women – from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe – who trailblazed their way into a privileged male-only space: electoral representation. From aristocratic revolutionaries to women from the poorest backgrounds, these trailblazers risked everything to claim space in the corridors of power. Some faced arrest, exile, torture, even death. But nearly all of them had one thing in common: they defied the rules, challenged male authority and demanded a voice, not just for themselves but for the women in their country. Trailblazers is not a neat tale of steady progress but a white-knuckle ride with some of the world's most extraordinary women. It is a raw chronicle of resistance and rebellion, of setbacks and victories, covering a century of global conflict, liberation movements, and political transformations. Through vivid storytelling, this meticulously researched book honours the women who laid the groundwork for all leaders of today. A compelling read for anyone who wants to understand the roots of women's political power, and who loves daring and sometimes flawed heroines, untold stories and real-world inspiration. This is more than a history book – it is a celebration of courage, a reminder of how far we have come, a call to action, and a tribute to those who dared to demand their rights.

Její změnou dokážete předejít obranné reakci a podpoříte racionální uvažování. - Nemáte zaplnit všechen prostor. Opravdovy? lídr musí umět naslouchat – a mlčet. - Tato kniha z vás přes noc skvělého lídra neudělá. Pomůže vám ale s vytvořením návyku, bez kterého se žádny? z nich neobejde.

A činí ji tak neocenitelnou pro každého, kdo chce pomáhat druhy?m.“ — David Allen, autor knihy Mít vše hotovo „Tato kniha by mi obrovsky usnadnila pracovní život, kdybych o ní věděl před lety.

The Visionaries
Although the Second World War was still a long way from being won, even by early 1941, US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was already planning for peace. America's entry of the war may still have been almost a year away, but he could already see the new world order that needed to emerge from the smouldering ashes of Europe. The business of war was very quickly going to have to become the business of peace.
Three years later, under the guidance of his successor, President Harry S. Truman, the Marshall Plan would emerge, a forward-thinking combination of global philanthropy and canny self-interest, rooted in a profound sense of Christian and moral duty, and which kickstarted unprecedented European growth and a chance for the world as a whole to rebuild after the ruinous catastrophe of war.
From the world on the eve of war in 1914 through to the Versailles Treaty and the global financial catastrophe of the late 1920s and early thirties, and the political earthquakes that followed, The Visionaries takes a broad sweep of history with important lessons for today. It's a reminder that while history does not repeat itself, patterns of human behaviour certainly do.
James Holland's knowledge of the Second World War and its aftermath gives him unique insight into the far-reaching consequences of the financial policies of Roosevelt and Truman. The sustained period of economic stability they initiated delivered peace to the western democracies for over eighty years and stand in stark contrast to our transactional approach to the world today.

Living Planet
A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough's seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet.
Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet.
In The Living Planet, David Attenborough's searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies, from the lonely heights of the Himalayas to the wild creatures that have established themselves in the most recent of environments, the city. By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing - the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet.
In this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section. He also addresses the urgent issues facing our living planet: climate change, pollution and mass extinction of species.

Voices of Victory
Discover the forgotten story of Britain’s final bloody battles against Nazi Germany in this Sunday Times top ten bestseller. Based on audio interviews with those who fought their way to victory, Voices of Victory is a compelling and immersive account of a crucial period in the Second World War by the bestselling author of D-Day: The Unheard Tapes. February, 1945. Eight months have passed since the D-Day landings, when the Allies gained their foothold in North-West Europe. Since then the British Army has fought near continuously against the German military. Now, they stand ready for their final test: the battle for the German homeland. Drawing on the sound archive of the Imperial War Museums and other personal accounts, military historian Geraint Jones brings this often-overlooked period of the war vividly to life in the words of British soldiers who were there, from war-weary men who have survived many months of combat to new recruits facing Hitler’s fanatics for the first time. In Voices of Victory we join the soldiers battling to break through the Siegfried Line and clear the Reichswald forest, where fighting was from one tree to the next. At the crossing of the Rhine we go into action with the commandos, and jump behind enemy lines with the Paras. We are taken into the horror of Belsen when the concentration camp is liberated, hear from the witnesses of the forgotten battles of April, and end the war deep in Germany, with victory in Europe. ‘Enthralling and enlightening . . . A wonderful look into the personal experiences, that heart and soul of the fighting soldier, towards the end of the Second World War’ – John Nichol, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Unknown WarriorVoices of Victory was a Sunday Times top ten bestseller w/e 03/05/2025.
Tank
'Punchy. Trenchant. Heavyweight. Mark Urban’s Tank blows the doors off, just as you’d expect from such an accomplished author. Take cover!’ Damien Lewis, author of SAS Great EscapesAn authoritative history of the tank and the remarkable individuals who designed them and fought in them, from a former officer and best-selling historianTanks are the ultimate embodiment of industrial age warfare. In the popular imagination, they represent both a terrifying beast of destruction and a potent symbol of liberation. The technology behind these war machines has evolved relentlessly, and yet the coming of the information age has led many to predict that drones, missiles, and Artificial Intelligence have made the tank obsolete. Time and again, however, tanks have continued to shape – and be shaped by -- battles around the world, from their introduction in 1916, through the Second World War and tank-on-tank fights in 1990s Iraq, to the current conflict in Ukraine. In TANK, best-selling historian and former officer in the Royal Tank Regiment Mark Urban draws on wide-ranging accounts from soldiers, designers, and politicians, from Winston Churchill to Volodymyr Zelensky, to tell the remarkable story of one of the most important developments in military history. Through the ten most important vehicles ever made, Urban chronicles the incredible advances in tank technology – starting with the Mark IV, the first British tank to be used in large numbers in WW1, and following the story through the T-34 and Tiger to the M1 Abrams, a product of huge American Cold War investment that is still used to this day. Officially supported by The Tank Museum and using never-before-seen archival sources, interviews and declassified documents, this is a fascinating history of the vehicle that changed conflict forever. ‘An illuminating and exciting drive through the mud and blood of twentieth-century warfare' Dr Robert Lyman, author of Operation Suicide
Building an Air Force
Until the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour, America did not want war, with the 1930s marked by strong isolationism and an emphasis on defense. However, in December 1941, it wasn't defensive aircraft the Army Air Corps had been steadily procuring, but offensive long-range heavy bombers, whilst US pursuit planes were decidedly inferior to their European counterparts. In this new history of the development of American air power, Phillip Meilinger dispels the notion that young air zealots pushed for a bomber-heavy force, revealing instead the technological, economic and bureaucratic forces which shaped the air force. He examines the role of scientists and engineers, developments in commercial aviation, and conflicting priorities of the Army and Air Corps, as well as how these were in turn influenced by America's political leaders. Building an Air Force is essential for understanding a conflict in which whoever controlled the skies controlled the land and seas beneath.

Whether in silence, busyness, or middle-of-the-night wonderings, many Christians know a lonely restlessness, a longing for richer communion with God, and a fundamental question about themselves they can't seem to shake: Am I loved? In Fully Beloved, pastor Timothy Jones helps you explore how answering the question, "Am I loved?" is both your lifetime's work and every moment's challenge. Weaving together personal stories from Jones' decades of pastoring, praying, grieving, and wrestling, alongside biblical insights, and the writings of spiritual mentors such as St. Augustine, Julian of Norwich, and Emily Dickinson, this book invites you to embrace:God's personal invitation to know true love in a hurting worldHow intimacy with God and your brokenness intertwineGreater passion for ancient Christian practicesDeeper connection with God, yourself, and othersRenewed awareness of how God redeems your pain and brokenness It is time to quench the thirst in your soul with a truth so full that it reaches deep into your heart's losses and transforms them into a stubborn and abundant joy that knows what it means to be Fully Beloved.
This Book May Cause Side Effects
'A wild and sometimes shocking ride ... Doctors, take note' Telegraph'Ambitious and fascinating' Book of the Day, Guardian'Absolutely fascinating' Dr Julie Smith'Entrancing' David RobsonA groundbreaking investigation into the nocebo effect - the placebo's evil twin - urging us to rethink the mind-body connection. Illness is not simply a matter of biology. Our thoughts, conscious or otherwise, can make us feel pain or become unwell. If you experienced side effects from your Covid vaccine, the chances are that these were caused by your belief that you would experience them. When a nurse tells you 'this is going to hurt', it generally does - but perhaps it shouldn't. In this revelatory study, neuroscientist Helen Pilcher explores the hidden impact of the 'nocebo effect' - the placebo's evil twin. Medical studies have proven the nocebo effect to cause pain, nausea, paralysis, seizures, and even blindness. The nocebo effect impacts how we grow sick and grow old, explains why people who don't have food allergies have dietary intolerances, and why, during the pandemic, so many teenagers caught tics through social media. From Havana Syndrome to hex deaths, chronic pain and mystery illnesses, this book explains what happens when illness, psychology and society meet - and shows us what we can do to become less ill and more well.

SAS Great Escapes Five
In the spirit of previous volumes, Damien Lewis reveals the untold stories of the war's most daring and audacious escapes as executed by the world's most famous fighting force, the SAS. Reaching back into the earliest origins of the SAS legend, and Operation Colossus, the volume opens with a series of death-defying escapes in Italy, where bluff, deception and audacity win the day. It moves on to an epic solo escape across the sun-blasted Sahara desert, as one man, long given up for dead, achieves the seemingly impossible. It goes on to chronicle one of the most successful raids by the SAS deep behind enemy lines, and how a terribly injured veteran of that mission used the secret escape lines of the Vatican to make it back to Allied lines, in a tale replete with cloak-and-dagger intrigue. From there, the reader is plunged into a series of daring POW-rescue missions, laced with Robin-Hood-style assassinations and robberies, plus a breathtaking getaway at mission's end. And finally, we learn of how one patrol's desperate, close-quarter battle to take an enemy-held fortress, led to tragic loss but an equally daring getaway. Working with the family members of those portrayed, and relying upon unpublished manuscripts, letters, diaries, war reports and more, this is gripping narrative history at its finest, delivered in typical Damien Lewis edge-of-the-seat style.
