Rome's Age of Revolution
Rome's Age of Revolution corrects the triumphalist narrative that the Christian message was so persuasive, and indeed superior, that people converted in huge numbers, abandoning their pagan beliefs, thereby turning a small, persecuted sect into the state religion of the Roman Empire.
Tim Whitmarsh shows that Christianity would never have succeeded if it had not taken advantage of the infrastructure and culture of the Roman Empire; in turn the new religion was indelibly shaped and transformed by Roman beliefs and ideas, especially those circulating in the Greek-speaking, or Hellenistic, eastern parts of the empire. This radical transformation, Tim argues, can only be described as a revolution. And the consequences are with us to this day.
9 szeretetnyelv
Gary Chapman párkapcsolati szakértő bestsellerében, Az 5 szeretetnyelvben arra biztat, hogy ha rálelünk a saját és a partnerünk szeretetnyelvére, akkor könnyebben kommunikálunk majd, és mélyebben megértjük a másikat. A megjelenése óta eltelt évtizedekben azonban átalakultak a randizás, az ismerkedés szokásai, a kapcsolatok formái és dinamikái.
Ebben a könyvben Alise Morales írónő újragondolja az öt szeretetnyelv – elismerő szavak, minőségi idő, ajándékozás, szívességek és testi érintés – fogalmát, és kibővíti négy továbbival: a határok tiszteletben tartása, az érzelmi biztonság, az egészséges vita, valamint a közös célok és élmények. Könnyed, szórakoztató stílusban és rengeteg gyakorlati élethelyzetet és példát felsorakoztatva mutatja meg, miként használhatjuk a szeretetnyelveket a digitális korban gördülékenyebb és rugalmasabb kommunikációs módszerként. A különféle kapcsolatokra fókuszáló feleletválasztós kvízek pedig abban segítenek, hogy felfedezzük, miként tudjuk a számunkra legjobb módon adni és fogadni a szeretetet.
Samuel Pepys in 50 Places and Objects
The life of politician and diarist Samuel Pepys spanned seven decades, meaning he bore witness to many groundbreaking events such as the execution of King Charles I in 1649 and the Glorious Revolution in 1688. His famous diary was written between 1660 and 1669 and provides fascinating detail on the world around him, from the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660 to the plague in 1665 and the Great Fire of London in 1666. This invaluable record of life in seventeenth-century England offers an intriguing insight into the politics, court life, defence of the realm and commerce of the period as well as day-to-day living. He describes visits to coffee houses, taverns, theatres, bear pits and, with incredible candour, brothels. Here Pepys’ life and diary is detailed through the places and objects associated with him. Visit the locations where Pepys resided and worked, the dockyards he inspected at Woolwich and Chatham, as well as the churches where he worshipped and the coffee houses and taverns he frequented. Examine items such as the bills of mortality Pepys read during the plague, his wig, the church steeple from which he observed the Great Fire, and his will. Full of quirky facts and fascinating illustrations, this book transports you back to seventeenth-century London through places and objects central to Pepys’ life.
Existenciálny manažment 2
Existenciálny manažment 2: Ontologická architektúra organizácie, zmysel organizácie a jednota rozhodovania v čase je odborným pokračovaním knihy Existenciálny manažment: Ako prežiť a zvíťaziť v chaose dnešného sveta.
Rastislav Silný v tejto publikácii systematicky rozvíja teoretické jadro Existenciálneho manažmentu. Skúma organizáciu nie iba ako právnu formu, ekonomický výkon, štruktúru alebo súbor procesov, ale ako jednotu rozhodovania, ktorej identita, kontinuita a stabilita závisia od zmyslu organizácie reprodukovaného v čase.
Kniha vysvetľuje, čo organizáciu skutočne drží pohromade, prečo sa jej vnútorná jednota môže oslabovať aj pri zachovanom výkone, ako vzniká entropický drift, akú úlohu má integračná sila a prečo rozhodovanie nemožno chápať iba ako manažérsku techniku.
Je určená podnikateľom, vlastníkom, lídrom, manažérom, vedcom, konzultantom a čitateľom, ktorí chcú porozumieť hlbším podmienkam stability organizácií v čase neistoty. Neponúka rýchly návod, ale presnejší spôsob videnia organizácie.

Notting Hill and North Kensington Murders and Misdemeanours
Before its present-day affluence, the Notting Hill area of London once had a second-to-none reputation for its criminality. Victorian developers sought to bring in wealthy Londoners to the large villas, but in the twentieth century the houses became multi-occupancy and the area synonymous with cheap lodging and crimes of every hue.

This book will fascinate anyone with an interest in the history of crime, as well as those who want to know more about the history of this corner of West London.
The Political Thought of David Hume
Aaron Alexander Zubia argues that the Epicurean roots of David Hume's philosophy gave rise to liberalism's unrelenting grip on the modern political imagination.Eighteenth-century Scottish philosopher David Hume has had an outsized impact on the political thinkers who came after him, from the nineteenth-century British Utilitarians to modern American social contract theorists. In this thorough and thoughtful new work, Aaron Alexander Zubia examines the forces that shaped Hume's thinking within the broad context of intellectual history, with particular focus on the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus and the skeptical tradition.Zubia argues that through Hume's influence, Epicureanism—which elevates utility over moral truth—became the foundation of liberal political philosophy, which continues to dominate and limit political discourse today.

Mediální koučink (nejen) pro firmy
Média jsou rychlejší než kdy dřív. Jedna věta vytržená z kontextu se během několika minut šíří médii, sociálními sítěmi i obchodními kruhy. Veřejná komunikace už dávno není výsadou celebrit – týká se firem, startupů, organizací i jednotlivých manažerů. A publikum je čím dál náročnější. Zajímá ho, kdo mluví, co říká a jakým způsobem. Chce autenticitu, srozumitelnost a smysl.
Právě proto je mediální příprava klíčová. Ne proto, aby někdo „vypadal dobře“, ale aby dokázal mluvit jasně, přesně a s vědomím dopadu vlastních slov. Skutečná připravenost znamená udržet směr sdělení i ve chvíli, kdy přijde nepříjemná otázka nebo tlaková situace.
S touto knihou se naučíte:
přemýšlet o sdělení, publiku i mediálním formátu,
systematicky se připravit na rozhovor,
pracovat s nepříjemnými otázkami a využívat nové nástroje včetně AI,
mluvit tak, aby vaše sdělení bylo pochopeno a správně interpretováno,
odpovídat jasněji, stručněji a s větším klidem,
nastavit jednoduché interní komunikační procesy ve firmě,
přestat řešit komunikaci až na poslední chvíli.
Média tu budou vždy. Otázka není, zda s nimi budete mluvit – ale jak dobře na to budete připraveni.
Unmasked
Whether you are neurodivergent, suspect you might be, or want to be a better ally, UNMASKED will help you make sense of it all, and put the power in your hands.
Ellie was 24 when she learned she wasn't broken. She wasn't a bad person, she was neurodivergent. Her late diagnosis of ADHD and autism was like a lightbulb being switched on and she could finally start to heal from the trauma of being un-diagnosed and mis-understood for so long.
Since getting her diagnosis, Ellie has made it her mission to change the way we think about autism, ADHD and neurodivergence and in UNMASKED she shares what she has learned along her journey.
Written in a bite-sized style for whizzy brains like hers, Ellie shares chapters on mental health, pretty privilege, how to navigate the workplace and the importance of self-diagnosis so that we can all better understand and celebrate neurodivergence, and ultimately make the world a more inclusive place.
Warhead
Discover the new science behind warfare, from Dr Nicholas Wright, leading neuroscientist and adviser to the Pentagon.
Why did France lose to the Nazis, despite its defenders having more tanks, troops and guns? How did Ukraine repel Russia's initial onslaught? How do you know if you can trust an ally? How can we make clearer decisions under pressure?
In Warhead, Nicholas Wright takes us on a fascinating journey through the brain to show us why, if we want to understand warfare, we must first look inside our own heads. Drawing on his work as a neuroscientist and over a decade spent advising the Pentagon and the UK government, he reveals how, whether we like it or not, the brain is wired for conflict - in the office or on the battlefield.
With a unique framework that helps explain today's rising tensions and how to defuse them, Warhead brings cutting-edge research to life through stories from across history. What was it like for a foot soldier at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815? How did Shaka Zulu or Winston Churchill see through the fog of conflict, make better decisions and communicate with their troops? How will human conflict shape our future technologies?
In an increasingly dangerous world that threatens our values and success, Warhead is an essential read to understand why we fight, lose and win wars.
Our Iceberg Is Melting
In Our Iceberg is Melting, a simple fable about penguins illustrates how to conquer change, with profound lessons for working and living in an ever-changing world.
Featuring a foreword by Spencer Johnson, bestselling author of Who Moved My Cheese?
Charming and thought-provoking, this bestselling story about a penguin colony in Antarctica illustrates key truths about how we deal with the issue of change: handle the challenge well and you can prosper greatly; handle it poorly and you put yourself at risk.
The penguins are living happily on their iceberg as they have done for many years. Then one curious penguin discovers a potentially devastating problem threatening their home - and pretty much no one listens to him.
The characters in this fable are like people we recognize, even ourselves. Their story is one of resistance to change and heroic action, confusion and insight, seemingly intractable obstacles and the most clever tactics for dealing with those obstacles. It is a story that is occuring in different forms around us today - but the penguins handle change a great deal better than most of us.
Based on John Kotter's pioneering work on how to make smart change happen faster and better, the lessons you can learn from this short, easy-to-read and beautifully illustrated book will serve you well in your job, in your family life and in your community. And these lessons are becoming ever more important as the world around us changes faster and faster.
This edition celebrates twenty years since the publication of this classic business fable with a new cover.
America, America
The first definitive history of the Western hemisphere, a sweeping five-century narrative of North and South America that redefines our understanding of both continents - perfect for readers of How the World Made the West.
The story of the United States’ unique sense of itself was forged facing south – no less than Latin America’s was indelibly stamped by the looming colossus to the north.
In this stunningly original reinterpretation of the New World, Professor Greg Grandin reveals how the Americas emerged from constant, turbulent engagement with each other, shedding new light on well-known historical figures like Bartolomé de las Casas, Simón Bolívar and Woodrow Wilson, as well as lesser-known actors such as the Venezuelan Francisco de Miranda, who almost lost his head in the French Revolution and conspired with Alexander Hamilton to free America from Spain.
America, América traverses half a millennium, from the Spanish Conquest – the greatest mortality event in human history – through the eighteenth-century wars for independence and the Monroe Doctrine, to the coups and revolutions of the twentieth century. This monumental work of scholarship fundamentally changes our understanding of Spanish and English colonialism, slavery and racism, the rise of universal humanism, and the role of social democracy in staving off authoritarian impulses.
At once comprehensive and accessible, America, América shows how the United States and Latin America together shaped the laws, institutions, and ideals that govern the modern world. Drawing on a vast array of sources, and told with authority and flair, this is a genuinely new history of the New World.

Quirky Ipswich
Ipswich has been a major port and the county town of Suffolk since the Middle Ages. The town was known for its wealthy merchants, trading from the port, but in the seventeenth century it became an embarkation point for many to start a new life in the New World. Charles Dickens later stayed in and wrote about Ipswich, and during the Second World War the dock area was heavily attacked by aerial bombardment.

Gospel of Lies
A psychological civil war is brewing, tearing through families and friendships as belief clashes with non-belief. In today's hyper-polarised climate, evangelicalism and right-wing extremism are often seen as one and the same, intensifying the divide. Believers perceive any departure from religious tradition as a personal affront, while non-believers fear their fundamental human rights are at the mercy of the religious majority. How do you navigate such a taboo topic when the stakes feel impossibly hig? ospel of Lies fearlessly confronts these critical issues head-on. This book offers a direct, no-nonsense guide to responding to the full spectrum of Christian rhetoric, from the seemingly innocent 'How can you not believe in a god when you see the world around you?' to the fiery condemnation of 'You'll regret this when you're burning in hell.'Beyond the debates, Gospel of Lies compassionately addresses the profound trauma that religion and early indoctrination can inflict. It acknowledges the lingering fears and anxieties that often persist long after faith has faded. Through eight incisive chapters, this book delves into specific doctrines, religious practices, and the author's personal experiences, providing practical responses and empowering insights. Arm yourself with the knowledge to confidently answer apologetics-based questions, navigate challenging family conversations about non-belief, and find validation in your courageous pursuit of truth and skepticism over blind faith.
The Art of Uncertainty
From the UK's 'statistical national treasure', a clever and data-driven guide to how we can live with risk and uncertainty
We live in a world where uncertainty is inevitable. How should we deal with what we don't know? And what role do chance, luck and coincidence play in our lives?
David Spiegelhalter has spent his career dissecting data in order to understand risks and assess the chances of what might happen in the future. In The Art of Uncertainty, he gives readers a window onto how we can all do this better.
In engaging, crystal-clear prose, he takes us through the principles of probability, showing how it can help us think more analytically about everything from medical advice to pandemics and climate change forecasts, and explores how we can update our beliefs about the future in the face of constantly changing experience. Along the way, he explains why roughly 40% of football results come down to luck rather than talent, how the National Risk Register assesses near-term risks to the United Kingdom, and why we can be so confident that two properly shuffled packs of cards have never, ever been in the exact same order.
Drawing on a wide range of captivating real-world examples, this is an essential guide to navigating uncertainty while also having the humility to admit what we do not know
Amnesia Remembered
Our modern culture is increasingly expressed in the form of digital artifacts, yet archaeology is in its infancy when it comes to researching and understanding them. The study and reverse engineering of digital artifacts is no longer the exclusive domain of computer scientists. Presented by way of analogy to the process of archaeological fieldwork familiar to readers, the 1986 Electronic Arts game Amnesia is used as a vehicle to explain the procedure and thought process required to reverse engineer a digital artifact. As a go-to reference to learn how to begin studying the digital, Amnesia is shown to be a multi-layered artifact with a complex backstory; through it, topics in data compression, copy protection, memory management, and programming languages are covered.
Attuned
We are all interconnected and dependent on each other to shape the world in which we live. Yet even though technology has allowed us to digitally share our lives with more people than ever, the result has been a growing pattern of personal isolation, alienation, and division. Why is this? “We are seeing the manifestation of collective trauma,” says luminary Thomas Hübl. “The profoundly complex challenges we face demand a new level of human collaboration.”In Attuned, Hübl shares a visionary guide to healing our struggling world. Attuning to a person, group, or organisation means coming into resonance by listening mindfully to the inner sensations, feelings, images, and information that arise. At the core of the book is the “relational field”? A vast matrix of energy through which information is shared within, around, and between us. In each chapter, you'll find insights and practices for perceiving and tuning in to oneself and others and ultimately contributing to the healing of this field. By embracing our interdependence, we can activate what is needed to respond to and evolve through the challenges of our age. “It may take only a small number of us,” explains Hübl, “to establish a new level of collective coherence? To share our light, heal our wounds, and realise the unawakened potential of our world.”
