Shadow Men
"Polchin knows the era, and brings to his account a wealth of colorful supporting detail . . . With its layers of taboos and public spectacle, the case feels, a century later, as relevant as ever." —Marisa Meltzer, The New York Times Book ReviewFrom Edgar Award finalist James Polchin comes a thrilling examination of the murder that captivated Jazz Age America, with echoes of the decadence and violence of The Great GatsbyOn the morning of May 16, 1922, a young man’s body was found on a desolate road in Westchester County. The victim was penniless ex-sailor Clarence Peters. Walter Ward, the handsome scion of the family that owned the largest chain of bread factories in the country, confessed to the crime as an act of self-defense against a violent gang of “shadow men,” blackmailers who extorted their victims’ moral weaknesses. From the start, one question defined the investigation: What scandalous secret could lead Ward to murder?For sixteen months, the media fueled a firestorm of speculation. Unscrupulous criminal attorneys, fame-seeking chorus girls, con artists, and misogynistic millionaires harnessed the power of the press to shape public perception. New York governor and future presidential candidate Al Smith and editor of the Daily News Joseph Medill Patterson leveraged the investigation to further professional ambitions. Famous figures like Harry Houdini, Arthur Conan Doyle, and F. Scott Fitzgerald weighed in. As the bereaved working-class Peters family sought to bring the callous Ward to justice, America watched enraptured.Capturing the extraordinary twists and turns of the case, Shadow Men conjures the excess and contradictions of the Jazz Age and reveals the true-crime origins of the media-led voyeurism that reverberates through contemporary life. It’s a story of privilege and power that lays bare the social inequity that continues to influence our system of justice.
World Prehistory and Archaeology
World Prehistory and Archaeology explains how the process of archaeological discovery develops our picture of humanity as it emerges from archaeological research, integrating discussion of world prehistory and archaeological methods. Presenting an up-to-date perspective on what we know about our human prehistory and how we come to know it, this book focuses on archaeology as an active journey of discovery and the ways in which archaeologists gain insight into the human past. Archaeological practice and methods are introduced and also problematized with discussions and examples of how we know the past. This new edition includes recent work on early humans, genetics, social complexity, agriculture, climate change, AI, and more to ensure that the current state of archaeological research is reflected. This vibrant picture of archaeology highlights how archaeologists grasp at the traces of the past but are at the same time deeply embedded in the concerns and structure of current society. To reflect this dynamic, the context of archaeological research and the relevance of archaeology to the challenges we face today are woven through the entire text. The archaeology of the recent past is also foregrounded to engage students with this rapidly developing area with a new chapter in the first section of the volume. Providing students with the fundamentals of archaeology and engaging them with the work that goes into understanding world prehistory, World Prehistory and Archaeology locates this knowledge in the context of the modern world, recognizing the relevance of archaeology to contemporary issues.

Nové stavební právo
Publikace představuje první ucelené monografické zpracování materie stavebního práva podle právní úpravy stavebního zákona z roku 2021 a souvisejících předpisů, v jejich pozdějším znění.
Autorský kolektiv složený z akademiků, advokátů i dalších zástupců právní praxe v devíti podrobně členěných kapitolách systematicky vykládá nejen ustanovení samotného stavebního zákona, ale poukazuje i na širší souvislosti rekodifikovaného stavebního práva, například ve vazbě na ochranu životního prostředí, institut vyvlastnění, digitalizaci řízení nebo procesní prostředky ochrany práv dotčených osob. Navzdory tomu se kniha z větší části drží systematiky stavebního zákona, když postupně přibližuje základní pojmy nového stavebního práva, organizaci a výkon stavební správy, materii územního plánování, hmotněprávní požadavky na výstavbu, jakož i obsáhlou procesněprávní úpravu stavebního řádu, které je věnován největší prostor.
Výklad je založen na kritické reflexi dosavadní literatury a judikatury, přičemž upozorňuje na antinomie jednotlivých ustanovení i sporné otázky aplikační praxe. Na vybraných místech autoři současně zohledňují také projednávané legislativní změny v oblasti stavebního práva.
Ačkoliv jde o prakticky orientovanou publikaci, své místo najde nejen v knihovnách advokátů, úředníků stavebních úřadů nebo investorů ve stavebnictví, ale vzhledem k obsáhlému poznámkovému aparátu také u akademiků a studentů právnických i stavebních fakult.
Tűzbe mennék érted
Cassie Hanwell az a tűzoltó, akit a legrosszabb helyzetekben mindenki maga mellett szeretne tudni. Amikor mások már menekülnek, ő a lángok közé veti magát - higgadtan, hűvösen, félelem nélkül.
Csakhogy nem mindig a tűz jelenti a legnagyobb veszélyt az életben.
Saját kitüntetési ceremóniáján Cassie szembe találja magát egy férfival a múltjából, aki egyetlen mozdulatával mindent visszahoz, amitől évek óta próbál menekülni: a dühöt, a félelmet. Ami ekkor történik, egy pillanat műve csupán, és mindent feléget maga körül. Cassie-nek ezután újra kell kezdenie az életét egy idegen városban, egy olyan közegben, ahol nem látnak szívesen egy női tűzoltót, legyen bármilyen rátermett is. Az egyetlen kedves kolléga, egy vonzó újonc pedig csak tovább nehezíti a dolgát, mert Cassie rég megtanulta, hogy a romantikus kötődés csupán sérülékennyé tesz.
Katherine Center regénye gyógyító erejű, szívmelengető történet a múlttal való szembenézés fontosságáról és a megbocsátás hatalmáról.
Spirit of the Times
In fourteenth-century Central Asia, Karia is a young woman living under the yoke of Mongol occupation. But she’s different. She’s a fighter with supernatural powers. She could use them to keep the Black Plague at bay and solve the mystery of the purple skies at dawn – if only she could overcome her self-doubt. Travelling in caravans on the Silk Road, she faces dangers seen and unseen – from sandstorms and slave traders to the desert djinn and folk who believe she’s a witch. She fears losing Abi, her little cousin, who’s fascinated by roses and the dance of the Whirling Dervishes of Bukhara.When Karia falls in love with an English sailor fleeing the Knights Hospitaller, they sail to England with Abi to unravel the meaning of the purple skies, a dance, a posy tree, and a ring of roses.The Spirit of the Times is part history, part fiction and part speculation: on the origin of disease; the power of innocence; the unfortunate aspects of custom and dogma; and humanity’s ability to respond to the governing influence or spirit of the times.
The Obsessed
"An enthralling, irreverent read." —Ruth Madievsky, bestselling author of All-Night Pharmacy "Any reader who has ever felt doubt, anxiety, or a tinge of obsession will relate to Astrid, which is to say, all of us." —Jessica Francis Kane, bestselling author of Fonseca and Rules for Visiting "A fun, clever, witty novel." —Annie Hartnett, bestselling author of The Road to Tender Hearts A wildly endearing coming-of-age story and "offbeat tale of obsession" (Caitlin Barasch), following one young woman who reenacts the love plot of her favorite novel only to find herself flailing when she enters a relationship with a fellow literary obsessive.Astrid is obsessed with Russian American novelist Sofiya Sova, whose life trajectory serendipitously parallels Astrid’s own and whose writing seems to encompass every anxious thought Astrid has ever had. Desperate to find the purpose she’s always craved, Astrid begins her PhD program hoping to fully embody the ethos of Sofiya Sova''s novel.But when Astrid’s long-term boyfriend, Charlie, breaks up with her after moving to Japan, and a spontaneous Hinge date connects her with a fellow Sofiya Sova obsessive named Elijah, Astrid quickly finds herself transcribing the love plot of her favorite Sofiya Sova novel onto her own life . . . until one day, Elijah begins to pull away and Astrid is left flailing in a life scaffolded by obsession.A bighearted portrait of the anxieties of desire, The Obsessed explores the trials of modern dating, the strange ennui of academia, and the question of how to create a world for yourself within and without the confines of your influences. What we’re left with is a striking portrayal of how a willing reader can bring a text to life, and similarly the animating power of a good novel.
Stories from the Celtic Twilight
In Cornwall the tradition of storytelling goes back a long way… Years ago “drolling”, telling stories around the fire on the long nights, was a natural part of life there, and to this day out-of-the-way country pubs still hold “storytelling nights”. This book is a collection of such stories, all but one set in Cornwall.Some of them, of course, involve the sea and all that flows from it. Others have a background in the mining days of two hundred years ago, but Cornwall is far more than its history. ‘The Short Order Chef’ is a story about the very modern dilemma of working in a county where most employers shut down for half the year, and one man’s very innovative solution to this situation. ‘The Kronek’ is a story about the conflict between the incomer community and the established locals.‘Moonlight on the Water’ is a tale of ancient belief meeting modern life, and ‘The Man Engine’ is about the miner’s legend about the little people. And of course, there is the tradition of piracy and smuggling. ‘Captain Avery’s Emerald’ is a sideways look at time and history that refuses to lie down and die peacefully.All the stories stand alone, and they all have a very dark heart.If you like your stories with a dark twist, this one is for you.
