Myseľ včely
Bohaté a prekvapivé skúmanie inteligencie včiel
Väčšina z nás si uvedomuje kolektívne vedomie včiel – silu včiel ako úžasného kolektívu. Ale vieme, aké jedinečné inteligencie sú včely ako jednotlivci? V knihe Myseľ včely Lars Chittka čerpá z desaťročí výskumu, vrátane svojej vlastnej priekopníckej práce, aby dokázal, že včely majú pozoruhodné kognitívne schopnosti. Ukazuje, že sú mimoriadne inteligentné, majú odlišné osobnosti, dokážu rozpoznať kvety a ľudské tváre, prejavujú základné emócie, vedia počítať, používať jednoduché nástroje, riešiť problémy a učiť sa pozorovaním ostatných. Možno dokonca disponujú vedomím.
Chittka vťahuje čitateľov do zmyslového sveta včiel a ilustruje, ako sú včelie mozgy v živočíšnej ríši bezkonkurenčné, pokiaľ ide o množstvo sofistikovaného materiálu, ktorý je obsiahnutý v ich malých nervových systémoch. Pozrie sa na ich vrodené správanie a spôsoby, akými ich evolúcia ako zberačiek mohla prispieť k ich bystrej priestorovej pamäti. Chittka tiež skúma psychologické rozdiely medzi včelami a etické dilemy, ktoré vznikajú v oblasti ochrany prírody a v laboratóriách, pretože včely cítia a myslia. V celej knihe sa dotýka fascinujúcej histórie štúdia správania včiel.
Kniha Myseľ včely skúma hmyz, ktorého zmyslové vnímanie sa vyrovná ľudskému a odhaľuje jedinečné schopnosti niektorých z najúžasnejších tvorov na svete.

China's Gambit
Emerging from an award-winning article in International Security, China's Gambit examines when, why, and how China attempts to coerce states over perceived threats to its national security. Since 1990, China has used coercion for territorial disputes and issues related to Taiwan and Tibet, yet China is curiously selective in the timing, target, and tools of coercion. This book offers a new and generalizable cost-balancing theory to explain states' coercion decisions. It demonstrates that China does not coerce frequently and uses military coercion less when it becomes stronger, resorting primarily to non-militarized tools. Leveraging rich empirical evidence, including primary Chinese documents and interviews with Chinese and foreign officials, this book explains how contemporary rising powers translate their power into influence and offers a new framework for explaining states' coercion decisions in an era of economic interdependence, particularly how contemporary global economic interdependence affects rising powers' foreign security policies.
God Never Gives Up on You
2024 ECPA Christian Living Book of the Year WinnerEver wonder if you’ve stumbled one too many times for God to use someone like you? Could you benefit from an encounter with God’s unending, unbending, unswerving love and devotion? If your answer is yes, it’s time for you to see how God’s grace transformed Jacob’s life. And if you feel undeserving of God’s grace, this book will serve as a refresher course on God’s perfect plan to use imperfect people to do great things.God Never Gives Up on You is for the strugglers among us and the fumbler within us. For those of us who are part saint, part scoundrel; we mean well, but we don’t always do well. We have breakthroughs and breakdowns, often in the same hour. We need no reminder of our failures. But where can we find examples of God’s steadfast grace?No one is more suited to help assure you of God’s grace than Jacob. He was less a prodigy and more a prodigal. Strong on savvy. Weak on conscience. Jacob took advantage of his famished brother and pulled the wool over the eyes of his dying father, yet God never turned his back on Jacob. And he won’t turn his back on you. If you are ready to start counting on God’s grace and believe he never gives up on you, this book is for you.
The Dummy Drome
This is the story of a WW2 airfield that wasn’t there. RAF Wick was a decoy airfield near Sarclet, by Thrumster in Caithness. For a brief period it was busy, active and vital, full of people and buildings with three broad and very obvious tracks with lights and noise. It was very much on the map, specifically designed to draw attention to itself. But it was an illusion dreamed up by military strategists and cinema-set designers. Air Ministry cartographers transposed the design of a real aerodrome onto a blank area on the map. Planners added standard building designs in the right places. Construction workers created runways that a plane could not land on. Artists and craftsmen made planes that couldn’t fly. Men and women from all over the country came to work at a place that was not a working airfield, although their very presence was an essential part of the deception. This book tells the story of how RAF Wick became a part of the lives of the people who built it, worked there or lived nearby.

Days That Changed the World
The currents of History run deep and often unseen beneath the everyday ripple of events. But now and again the current rises to the surface, and the events of a single day shed an exceptional light on the meaning of the past. Such events are the subject of Days that Changed the World. Some of the 50 days described here mark the end of an era; others the start of something new. Many are the dates of bloody battles or murders; others of momentous decisions or breathtaking discoveries. All are remembered as powerful symbols of their time. Our story begins almost 2500 years ago on 28 September 480 before the Christian Era, when the Athenian navy destroyed the Persian invasion fleet in the Bay of Salamis. Had the Persians won we might never have heard the names of Plato, Aristotle or Alexander, nor recognize the word democracy. Charting 50 such defining moments, concluding with Nelson Mandela's release from prison in 1990 and 9/11 a decade after, Days that Changed the World is a unique and fascinating way to portray the story of world history. Repackaged into a neat and striking format, with a brand new cover and an entirely narrative approach, it is bound to be anyone interested in History's favorite encyclopaedia.

Hiroshima
''a master class in eyewitness storytelling . . . this gripping narrative chronicles one of history''s darkest nightmare moments'' - Annie Jacobsen, author of Nuclear War: A ScenarioOn the 80th anniversary of the devastating bombing of Hiroshima, the stories of the hibakusha are more important than ever.The stories of hibakusha - Japanese for atomic bomb survivors - lie at the heart of this compelling minute-by-minute account of 6 August 1945 - the day the world changed forever as the Enola Gay dropped its payload over Hiroshima, ushering in the nuclear age. These survivors and witnesses, now with an average age of over 90, are the last people alive who can still provide us with reliable and detailed testimony about life in Hiroshima before the bombings. In this heart-stopping account they relay what they experienced on the day the city was obliterated, and what it has been like to live with those memories and scars over the rest of their lives.M. G. Sheftall has spent years personally interviewing survivors who were just adolescents at the time but have lived well into their nineties, allowing him to construct portraits of what Hiroshima was like before the bomb, and how catastrophically its citizens'' lives changed in the seconds, minutes, days, weeks, months and years afterwards. Fluent in spoken and written Japanese, his deep immersion in Japanese society has given him unprecedented access to the hibakusha in their waning years. Their trust in him is evident in the personal and traumatic depths they open up for him as he records their stories.The result is a deeply human history of an unfathomable tragedy, which continues to haunt the world today.
You Can, If You Want To
What if Christianity was far more liberating than the culture wars suggest? Can the conflict concerning Christianity and homosexuality be viewed from a more interpretative lens? James Alison, a Catholic priest who is also a gay man, has been wrestling with the matter for over forty years.This luminous and rigorous book dismantles the fear-based binaries which have dominated conversations in the Church. Striving to address potential concerns about accepting LGBTQ+ individuals within the church, James draws on scripture, tradition and his lived experience to form a broader understanding of faith and humanity.
Genesis - Artificial Intelligence, Hope, and the Human Spirit
In his final book, the late Henry Kissinger joins forces with two leading technologists to mount a profound exploration of the epochal challenges and opportunities presented by the revolution in Artificial Intelligence.
As it absorbs data, gains agency, and intermediates between humans and reality, AI (Artificial Intelligence) will help us to address enormous crises, from climate change to geopolitical conflicts to income inequality. It might well solve some of the greatest mysteries of our universe and elevate the human spirit to unimaginable heights. But it will also pose challenges on a scale and of an intensity that we have never seen - usurping our power of independent judgment and action, testing our relationship with the divine, and perhaps even spurring a new phase in human evolution.
The last book of elder statesman Henry Kissinger, written with technologists Craig Mundie and Eric Schmidt, Genesis charts a course between blind faith and unjustified fear as it outlines an effective strategy for navigating the age of AI.
