Genetická genealogie pro historiky
Genetická genealogie a paleogenetika jsou mladé, dynamicky se rozvíjející disciplíny na pomezí přírodních věd, historie a moderních technologií. Díky zpřístupnění DNA testování se zrodila skutečná revoluce, která umožňuje nejen ověřovat rodokmeny a odhalovat zapomenuté příbuzenské vazby, ale také rekonstruovat migrace celých populací a nahlížet do dávné minulosti lidstva.
Kniha nabízí komplexní vhled do principů genetického výzkumu – od základů stavby DNA až po praktické využití genetických databází a specializovaných nástrojů. Autor ukazuje, jak genetická genealogie a paleogenetika překračují hranice tradičních historických metod a přináší nové odpovědi na otázky, které byly dlouho považovány za neřešitelné.
Na konkrétních příkladech – od identifikace ruské carské rodiny přes výzkum hrobu Richarda III. až po analýzy nálezů z Dolních Věstonic či hromadných hrobů z války roku 1866 – demonstruje, jak DNA propojuje archeologii, historii i osobní genealogii.
Tato publikace je cenným průvodcem pro odborníky i vážné zájemce o rodinnou historii a ukazuje, že genetická genealogie a paleogenetika jsou plnohodnotným nástrojem pro poznání skrytých příběhů minulosti – a možná i klíčem k jejímu budoucímu zkoumání.
The Emergent Mind
How does our consciousness – our ability to think, feel and act – actually work? How is this human intelligence different from artificial intelligence? And as we stand on the brink of a new era of machine intelligence, how are these realms of intelligence beginning to intersect?
In The Emergent Mind, leading scientists Gaurav Suri and Jay McClelland offer a groundbreaking new perspective on these urgent questions. By examining the concept of emergence – where complex systems arise from the interaction of simple elements – they reveal how mind-like abilities form in both human intelligence and AI.
Drawing on the foundational idea of neural networks, a framework inspired by the human brain and now the bedrock of modern AI, this insightful book offers a clear and accessible path to understanding how intelligence takes shape. The Emergent Mind provides a fascinating account of how we reach decisions, why we change our minds and how we are affected by context and experience. They are showing how a data-driven neural network can create thoughts, emotions and ideas – a mind – whether in humans or machines.
Written by experts at the forefront of cognitive science and AI, The Emergent Mind is an essential read for anyone captivated by the mysteries of human intelligence or the transformative rise of AI.
World Enemy No. 1: Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, and the Fate of the Jews
In the Nazi imagination, the USSR was the most powerful Jewish organization in the world. They called it 'World Enemy No. 1'.
The shocking number of Soviet citizens who lost their lives between 1941 and 1945 - 26 million, more than any other country - is widely known. But the faces and the voices of these victims of Nazism are conspicuously absent. In a pathbreaking new work of history, Jochen Hellbeck restores the USSR to its proper place in the history of the Second World War, arguing that to truly understand the conflict, we must set its axis firmly in Soviet territory.
It was not the Western powers but Communist Russia that Nazi Germany viewed as the greatest threat to its existence. The German crusade against 'Judeo-Bolshevism' was the driving force of the Nazis' most extreme violence, and Soviet territory became ground zero for systematic extermination. Only later was this shocking regime of killing extended to all Jews, igniting the Holocaust.
Using newly declassified archives, testimonies, diaries and dispatches from soldiers and civilians both Soviet and German, Hellbeck reveals the sheer, untold breadth of terror the Nazis inflicted. This eye-opening masterwork is an astonishing new reading both of the Second World War and of how its history has been told.

Stop Trying!
If you’re struggling to get things done or meet your goals, the problem isn’t that you’re not trying hard enough, it’s that you’re trying in the first place.When it comes to getting stuff done, we fall short more often than we like to admit. This can leave us feeling frustrated and ashamed, because despite trying our very best we can’t seem to meet our goals. Why? The surprising answer is ingeniously outlined in Stop Trying!: The Life-Transforming Power of Trying Less and Doing More—an evolutionary guide that evokes the revelatory force of The Five-Second Rule and the sublime practicality of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. Put simply, it turns out that trying is just an illusion for doing. Stop Trying! illuminates the deception in a mindset built on trying, which can lead to anxiety, procrastination, perceived loss of control, fatigue, fear of failure, lack of follow-through, and overall life dissatisfaction. Importantly, this book offers a way out of the rut and into practical, progressive action. Stop Trying! reveals the compelling science behind our brain, behaviors, and beliefs when it comes to the notion of trying. Pulling from positive psychology, the science of habit formation, clinical studies, and more, motivational speaker Carla Ondrasik guides us to proven-effective strategies for better doing—and ultimately to goal achievement and a more fulfilling life. Readers will learn techniques and tips, build skills through interactive activities, and hear sincere stories from everyday people who’ve made the transformative switch from trying to doing. Achievement is just one “do or do not” decision away, and it starts with eliminating “try” from our vocabulary. Stop Trying! shows us how to do that.
Return of Tyranny
Why do some revolutions fail and succumb to counterrevolutions, whereas others go on to establish durable rule? Marshalling original data on counterrevolutions worldwide since 1900 and new evidence from the reversal of Egypt's 2011 revolution, Killian Clarke explains both why counterrevolutions emerge and when they are likely to succeed. He forwards a movement-centric argument that emphasizes the strategies revolutionary leaders embrace both during their opposition campaigns and after they seize power. Movements that wage violent resistance and espouse radical ideologies establish regimes that are very difficult to overthrow. By contrast, democratic revolutions like Egypt's are more vulnerable, though Clarke also identifies a path by which they too can avoid counterrevolution. By preserving their elite coalitions and broad popular support, these movements can return to mass mobilization to thwart counterrevolutionary threats. In an era of resurgent authoritarianism worldwide, Return of Tyranny sheds light on one particularly violent form of reactionary politics.
Logical Pluralism
Logical pluralism is the view that there is more than one correct logic. This view emerged in a dialectical context in which certain laws of logic were hotly debated by philosophers. For example, philosophers have spilled a great deal of ink over the logical principle of explosion ('from a contradiction, everything follows'). One side in the debate accepts this principle, the other side rejects it. It is exceedingly natural to assume that these rival points of view are incompatible, hence one side of the debate is correct while the other is incorrect. This is logical monism: the view that there is exactly one correct logic. Pluralists argue that the monistic assumption is subtly and surprisingly wrong. According to the pluralist, some logics that appear to be irreconcilable rivals are, in fact, both correct in their own ways. This Element will explain the debate over logical pluralism in an accessible manner.
The Unknown Warrior
THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLER Chosen by WATERSTONES as one of their BEST HISTORY BOOKS for 2024 ‘Compelling… [Nichol has a] terrific eye for detail; an ability to blend tear-jerking letters, quotation and personal anecdotes into a rich, thought-provoking narrative’Daily Telegraph Over one million British Empire soldiers were killed during the First World War. More than a century later, over half a million still have no known grave. The scale of the fighting, the catastrophic destruction, the relentless military engagement and glutinous mud meant that many of the dead were never identified, of often, never recovered. Names were left without bodies, and bodies, or fragments of bodies, without names. To help staunch the tide of national grief in the aftermath of the conflict, an idea was born for a single 'Unknown Warrior' representing all the missing, to be brought from the battlefields and buried in Westminster Abbey alongside the nation's kings and queens. Using diaries, archives and interviews with the descendants of that generation and modern-day experts, Sunday Times bestselling author and former RAF Tornado navigator John Nichol draws on his own experience of combat and loss to shine light on this 100-year-old story. And in speaking to those who have lost loved ones in more modern conflicts, he examines our continuing need for a tangible resting place at which to truly grieve the fallen. His search for answers becomes a moving and personal journey, exploring the true meaning of camaraderie, service, sacrifice and remembrance.
What is Wrong with the World?
Everywhere we look, we see brokenness: wars, cruelty, and heartache and much more. We feel it in the world around us and in our own lives. How did it get to be this way?During his tenure as founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, Timothy Keller explained on a weekly basis how the Bible provides the most comprehensive and sophisticated response to the fundamental questions of life. In What Is Wrong with the World?, based on a series of teachings given at Redeemer, Keller answers the title''s pressing question by revealing that the only thing that can account for the world''s pain and chaos is what the Bible calls sin. This clear-eyed and ultimately hopeful book reveals how sin is not simply a ''bad'' thing we do, but something much more subtle and complex, affecting our relationships, our thinking, and every aspect of our existence. And only when we recognize sin for what it is can we find the profound, life-transforming answer our souls long for. What Is Wrong with the World? is for anyone who:Feels overwhelmed at the state of the worldBattles with repeated mistakes and poor choicesDesires more than pat answers to difficult questionsWonders how to know joy while still acknowledging painWants to understand how God''s love gives hope even in the hardest of places.Today''s battles across the globe and in our own hearts are not the end of the story. As Keller writes, ''If we stand any chance of answering the question of what is wrong with the world . . . we must begin with understanding the complexity and multifaceted nature of sin, and end with understanding the unfailing love of a God who chooses to save us from it. This book will show you how.''
You Can't Have It All
THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From New York Times bestselling author, OG Vanderpump Rules star, and host of the successful podcast Stassi, a “raw, relatable…brutally funny” (Bustle) guide to rethinking the girlboss life, taking the pressure off, and the lessons Stassi Schroeder’s learned since becoming a mom of two. Before she wrote Off with My Head, a book about hitting what felt like rock bottom, Stassi Schroeder was writing an entirely different story: a basic bitch’s guide on how to be a—wait for it—“girlboss.” But then 2020 came along and after a global pandemic, losing her job, becoming a mom, and getting married, suddenly, being a girlboss wasn’t the vibe. Instead of giving up, Stassi grew and learned from her mistakes (you know, just standard evolution). After two and a half years in limbo, Stassi was ready to launch her career again. She’d come a long way from that temperamental “Season One Stassi.” She’d gained a new perspective on what she wants out of life: to carve a path for herself, on her terms. The thing is, all this pressure to “have it all” while girlbossing it up…it’s exhausting, and Stassi isn’t sure it’s the ticket to happiness that we all thought it was. That’s truly what this book is about: the desire for joy, and accepting that you may not be the “perfect” parent/partner/friend/human—and that’s okay! Instead of letting mom guilt or work guilt get her down, Stassi encourages us all to take the pressure off, give ourselves grace, and lean into the things that bring us happiness. And if you need a little sauvignon blanc or Aperol spritz to get you through the tough days…cheers!
Soviet Tanks in Barbarossa 1941
The invasion of the Soviet Union saw the Red Army’s vast tank fleets crushed by the outnumbered Germans. Fully illustrated and packed with data, this book explains how and why.Contrary to popular belief, the largest tank battles of World War II were not during the Kursk campaign of 1943, but during Operation Barbarossa in the summer of 1941. The Soviet tank fleet was enormous – about 24,000 tanks facing about 3,500 Panzers. But despite the gross numerical imbalance in their favor, the summer 1941 campaign was a disaster for the Red Army. In this book, based on documents previously unpublished in the English language, world-renowned armor expert Steven J. Zaloga analyses why the Red Army performed so badly in Barbarossa. During the summer months, the Red Army lost about 15,000 tanks including most of its best new tanks such as the T-34s and KVs, and by winter, most of the pre-war arsenal had been lost. It was dubbed the “Tankoviy pogrom”: the Tank Massacre. Illustrated with archive photos and meticulously detailed original illustrations, it examines the organization and doctrine of the Red Army in 1941 as well as the principal tank types, including information and illustrations on unusual and little-known types such as the multi-turreted T-28 and T-35 heavy tanks.
The Airlift
Berlin, 1948-9. Airmen who had spent the Second World War dropping bombs on the city now risked their lives dropping chocolate bars; German citizens looked to the skies not with dread and hatred, but with hope and admiration. Through a deeply human lens, this fascinating new book investigates how lasting new battlelines were formed in the war-torn city.This is not a standard military history; The Airlift uses extensive archives and interviews to interweave everyday characters'' tales into an extraordinary story. They include an American pilot crashing in Soviet territory, a Jewish photographer struggling to reconcile with the Germans, the 17,000 women who built Tegel Airport, Cambridge University actors performing in the ruins for British intelligence, Hollywood star Montgomery Clift filming at Tempelhof airport, and a Berlin girl trying to outrun the boys reaching for chocolate.By uncovering untapped sources in both German and Anglo-American archives, Dr Pearson gives a unique and textured portrait of a city during the Cold War’s first major conflict through the lives of real individuals. The Berlin Airlift wrote the playbook of the Cold War, and it still influences Western thinking and diplomacy with Russia to this day.

Armies of Justinian the Great, AD 527–65
A fully illustrated study of the 6th-century campaigns that saw the Byzantine Empire largely reconquer the Mediterranean, examining Emperor Justinian I’s generals and troops in detail. While the Germanic invasions of 5th century destroyed the Western Roman Empire, the Byzantine (Eastern Roman) Empire entered the 6th century largely unscathed. Under the reign of Justinian I (r. 527–65), it saw the imposition of Orthodox Christian authority, a new codification of laws and a partial restoration of Roman imperial glory, as the emperor tasked a group of highly skilled generals with recapturing the Mediterranean coast. This engaging new study combines expert research with archaeological photographs and newly commissioned illustrations to examine the personalities, tactics, uniforms and weaponry behind this mighty effort.Roman military historian Raffaele d’Amato brings to life the remarkable characters who oversaw Justinian’s armies, expertly chronicling their struggles and victories. Commanders and generals such as Belisarius, Narses and John Troglitas are considered in detail, as are the troops they led to triumph over enemies including the Ostrogoths, Vandals and Persians. Complemented by eight colour artwork plates that vividly depict the different elements of infantry and cavalry at the heart of Justinian’s conquests, this is an absorbing and lively account of the Byzantine Empire at war.
