Accompanied with beautiful illustrations throughout, uncover the real stories behind the women of Ancient Mythology and find what they can teach us about being a woman today. Discover the women who shaped and subverted womanhood from the very beginning…

Finding your ikigai is easier than you might think. This book will help you work out what your own ikigai really is, and equip you to change your life. You have a purpose in this world: your skills, your interests, your desires and your history have made you the perfect candidate for something. All you have to do is find it.
Do that, and you can make every single day of your life joyful and meaningful.
Legendary Guitars
The ultimate collection of 100 legendary guitarsFrom the beginnings of the American guitar in the 19th century to the avant-garde Canadian creations of a few months ago, from folk to electric to archtop; from the cheap guitar of the bluesmen of the 1960s to the Les Paul worth half a million dollars; all the instruments presented in this book are exceptional, whether it's because of their sound, their craftsmanship, the way they play, their aesthetics or the artists they inspired. Julien Bitoun, musician and great specialist in the history of rock, has lovingly selected each of the instruments. He tells the story of their creation and the reasons they entered history.
Enough to make the most jaded collector pale or the most occasional enthusiast definitely addicted!
Motherland
Award-winning journalist Julia Ioffe tells the story of modern Russia through the history of its women, from revolution to utopia to autocracy.
In 1990, seven-year-old Julia Ioffe and her family fled the Soviet Union. Nearly twenty years later, Ioffe returned to Moscow-only to discover just how much Russian society had changed while she had been living in America. The Soviet women she had known growing up-doctors, engineers, scientists-had seemingly been replaced with women desperate to marry rich and become stay-at-home moms. How had Russia gone from portraying itself as the vanguard of world feminism to the last bastion of conservative Christian values?
In Motherland, Ioffe turns modern Russian history on its head, telling it exclusively through the stories of its women. From her own physician great-grandmothers to Lenin's lover, a feminist revolutionary; from the hundreds of thousands of Soviet girls who fought in World War II to the millions of single mothers who rebuilt and repopulated a devastated country; from the members of Pussy Riot to Yulia Navalnaya, wife of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, she chronicles one of the most audacious social experiments in history and how it failed the very women it was meant to liberate-and documents how that failure paved the way to the revanche of Vladimir Putin.
Part memoir, part journalistic exploration, part history, Motherland paints a portrait of modern Russia through the women who shaped it. With deep emotion, Ioffe shows what it means to live through the cataclysms of revolution, war, idealism, and heartbreak-and reveals how the story of Russia today is inextricably tied to the history of its women.
Kriegsmarine North Sea Command 1939–42
An authoritative, illustrated history of how Germany fought to dominate the North Sea in early World War II, and take the naval war to Britain's coasts. Britain’s war economy relied not only on the Atlantic Convoys, but also on superiority in coastal waters. Six days out of seven, convoys left Scotland and northern England, laden chiefly with the coal that the south required – London alone needing 40,000 tons a week. Cutting these lines, as well as challenging military and naval movements, was the responsibility of Germany’s North Sea Command. Here, Kriegsmarine expert Lawrence Paterson offers the first study of Germany’s fierce war in the North Sea from a strategic and operational perspective. Although famous for its dashing S-boats, the North Sea saw an array of ships from battleships (briefly) and cruisers to converted fishing boats. Destroyers, torpedo boats and minelayers laid extensive mine barrages close inshore, in the face of the Royal Navy. He also explores the command's defences, with its many Kriegsmarine shore troops, artillery emplacements, flak batteries and small units of marines. German coastal forces engaged British forces at Dunkirk and, with the fall of France, the war spread along the entire coastline. With diagrams, archive photos (some unpublished) and original artwork, this is the story of the Kriegsmarine’s struggle to cut Britain’s military and trade arteries.
Confidently Lost
'Heartfelt, honest and hugely comforting. Gavin writes beautifully, weaving calm (and most importantly, joy), through the chaos of modern living. A wise and perspective-shifting guide to making the most of your beautiful life.' Donna Ashworth - Sunday Times bestselling author of Wild Hope and To The Women Not another self-help book promising “five steps to happiness.” This is a wake-up call, a rallying cry, and a much-needed hug all in one. Brace yourself for the book that flips self-help on its head and gives personal growth a much-needed shake-up. Renowned speaker and bestselling author, Gavin Oattes' latest release, Confidently Lost, is not your typical guide to happiness. Instead, it's an unfiltered, deeply human exploration of what it means to fall apart and rebuild yourself - messy, unpredictable, and gloriously real. Born out of chaos and a "lifequake" moment that shattered his world in 2023, Confidently Lost offers a refreshingly honest take on navigating the aftermath of profound disruption. From unpacking the weight of grief to rediscovering joy in the smallest glimmers, Oattes delivers life lessons with humour, warmth, and the kind of raw vulnerability that feels like a friend grabbing you by the shoulders and saying, “You've got this.” But Confidently Lost isn't just about survival, it's about thriving. Oattes draws readers into powerful reflections, challenging them to ditch perfection, embrace their inner anti-hero, and reclaim the magic of everyday moments. This isn't a book about having all the answers, it's about the courage to admit you're figuring it out as you go, and realising that's more than enough. A Book for Anyone Who's Ever Felt Stuck Using vivid storytelling and laugh-out-loud humour, Confidently Lost tackles universal themes: Letting go of the invisible rucksack of emotional baggage. Smashing the myth of “having it all figured out” and embracing life's chaos. Discovering the beauty in daydreams and the power of stillness. Breaking free from societal expectations (and the tyranny of the Joneses). Reclaiming joy, curiosity, and even the childlike wiggle that comes from pure excitement. Whether you're on the verge of a breakdown, in the middle of a breakthrough, or just figuring out what the hell to do next, Confidently Lost is here to remind you: you're not alone, and you're exactly where you need to be.

How to Be Free
Embrace joy, reclaim your narrative, and achieve your wildest dreams in business and beyond with this inspiring hands-on guide to transforming your life with proven meditation, mindfulness, and creative exercises from Shaka Senghor, an extraordinary New York Times bestselling author and entrepreneur who overcame mental roadblocks and transformed his self-esteem after incarceration.When Shaka received his second parole denial after 18 years behind bars, he had a choice to make: surrender to despair or transform himself from within. He chose hope. Using daily practices like journaling, meditation, mindfulness, and creative expression, he turned his vision into action and discovered how to break free everything holding him back so he could step into his true potential. And when he did, he realized his greatest barriers existed within his own mind—past narratives, survivor''s remorse, fear, and the inability to forgive. This awakening led him to discover universal truths about freedom that apply far beyond prison walls and transform every aspect of life—from deepening our relationships to achieving career success. Through raw and powerful storytelling, Shaka reveals how we all grapple with invisible chains that hold us back. Drawing from the profound lessons of his remarkable journey from solitary to the C-suite, he provides more than inspiration—he delivers a proven roadmap to transform your life.
Liberalism and American Literature in the Clinton Era
Liberalism and American Literature in the Clinton Era argues that a new, post-postmodern aesthetic emerges in the 1990s as a group of American writers – including Mary Gaitskill, George Saunders, Richard Powers, Karen Tei Yamashita, and others – grapples with the political triumph of free-market ideology. The book shows how these writers resist the anti-social qualities of this frantic right-wing shift while still performing its essential gesture, the personalization of otherwise irreducible social antagonisms. Thus, we see these writers reinvent political struggles as differences in values and emotions, in fictions that explore non-antagonistic social forms like families, communities and networks. Situating these formally innovative fictions in the context of the controversies that have defined this rightward shift – including debates over free trade, welfare reform, and family values – Brooks details how American writers and politicians have reinvented liberalism for the age of pro-capitalist consensus.

In the process, the contributors examine the importance of topics such as the power of the Roman Catholic Church, changing social mores, Ireland’s relationship with the UK, and its economic development.This is a must read for anyone interested in Irish politics at a time of potential far-reaching change for the republic.

Sebevražda pro začátečníky
V roce 1983 lámal Michael Jackson rekordy s hitem Billie Jean, U2 zpívali o Sunday Bloody Sunday a Nena o 99 Luftballons. V roce 1983 také zemřela Liz Rücková, Christianova teta. Příčinou smrti byla sebevražda.
Christian Rück provází čtenáře tímto kontroverzním tématem jako psychiatr, profesor a vědecký poradce pro prevenci sebevražd. Dělí se s námi o rozhovory s odborníky i o svědectví lidí, kteří někoho ztratili. Jeho vlastní zkušenost se táhne celou knihou jako červená nit.
Co můžeme dělat, když zemře dítě? Měl by mít 104letý profesor právo rozhodnout o ukončení vlastního života na „klinice smrti“ ve Švýcarsku? Jak to, že žádný jiný živočišný druh než člověk nepáchá sebevraždy? Můžeme lépe porozumět životu, když stojíme tváří v tvář smrti?
Kniha Sebevražda pro začátečníky vámi otřese, ale zároveň vám dá naději a odvahu žít tak, aby to opravdu stálo za to.
EKG
EKG – od jehož vynálezu uplynulo více než 120 let – tvoří pro svou obrovskou dostupnost, rychlost a univerzálnost zcela suverénně nejdůležitější diagnostickou metodu v kardiologii. V současné době je sice řada variant učebnic EKG s různými přívlastky či EKG atlasu, ale chybí základní publikace, která by popisovala EKG od principu až po pokročilejší poznatky pro lékaře v přípravě na atestaci z interny či kardiologie.
Kniha dvou předních českých expertů v oblasti elektrokardiografie přináší toto vše v přehledné a srozumitelné formě. Obsahuje popis patofyziologických mechanismů vzniku jednotlivých kmitů a komplexů EKG křivky, strukturovaně jsou rozděleny jednotlivé brady- a tachyarytmie a v příslušných kapitolách logicky vysvětleny mechanismy jejich vzniku s četnými reálnými EKG křivkami. Poslední kapitoly jsou věnovány EKG patologii při strukturálních a funkčních poruchách srdečního svalu a extrakardiálních onemocněních. Kniha určená pro širokou lékařskou obec je celoživotně použitelná jak v začátcích po promoci či v přípravě na atestace – vítaným průvodcem bude i pro zkušené kardiology a internisty během jejich celého profesního života.
Vladimír Vernadskij a jeho cesta od biosféry k noosféře
Vladimír Ivanovič Vernadskij (1863–1945) patřil k mimořádným osobnostem vědy, jejichž odkaz přesahuje hranice oborů i států. Byl zakladatelem biogeochemie, klíčovou osobností vzniku moderní geochemie a radiogeologie, průkopníkem výzkumu radioaktivity. Svým pojetím biosféry – dynamického celku, v němž jsou živá i neživá složka neoddělitelně propojeny – předznamenal vznik moderní ekologie a představil fascinující koncept noosféry, sféry rozumu, v níž se lidské myšlení stává planetární silou.
Tato kniha, první původní česká monografie věnovaná Vernadskému, sleduje nejen jeho mimořádnou vědeckou dráhu, ale i širší intelektuální a etický rozměr jeho myšlení. Přibližuje Vernadského jako osobnost, která spojovala přírodní vědy s humanitními obory a vědeckou práci s morální odpovědností. Autorka ukazuje, jak jeho ideály – přátelství, spolupráce a univerzální charakter vědy – ovlivnily jeho život i dílo, a proč je jeho odkaz aktuální v době, kdy lidstvo čelí klimatické krizi, ekologickým hrozbám i riziku jaderného konfliktu.
Kniha nabízí čtenáři možnost pochopit Vernadského myšlenky v historickém i současném kontextu, sledovat jejich vztah k ruskému kosmismu a v širších souvislostech také k evropské filosofii i moderní ekologii. Zároveň otevírá otázky, které zůstávají živé i dnes: může člověk překonat svou přirozenost, aby ulevil Zemi? Jakou roli hraje vědecké poznání ve vývoji biosféry? A jaký význam má etika pro skutečný pokrok vědy?

The Revelation Spiritual Home
Africa hosts thousands of new religious organizations, yet those that have attracted academic attention are mainly derived from Christianity. Less studied is the phenomenon of African Indigenous Spirituality (AIS), including new groups whose program is restoring forms of pre-Christian and pre-Islamic spirituality. After a general introduction to AIS and some historical and contemporary examples, this Element presents an ethnography of what may well be the largest pan-African AIS group, The Revelation Spiritual Home (TRSH). Founded in Johannesburg by Samuel Radebe in 2009, it now has more than seventy branches in southern Africa. Based on fieldwork in TRSH centers and interviews with both Radebe and other leaders and members, as well as with participants in other AIS activities and groups, this Element examines the history, ideas, rituals, and business and educational activities of TRSH, and discusses the reasons for both its success and the opposition it has encountered.
