Desiderius Erasmus
One cannot discuss the Renaissance without coming across the name of Desiderius Erasmus. He was renowned for scholarship, views on education, religion, and conduct. Erasmus found himself in the midst of the religious debate in Europe during the sixteenth century and regardless of where his path led he would find himself subject to praise and scrutiny. Desiderius Erasmus: The Folly or Far Sightedness of Renaissance Europe's Greatest Mind will look at the life of a scholar who chose to put his own learning ahead of income, obtained patronage from the wealthy and influenced education for centuries to come.
We Rode All Night
June 1926: the 20th Tour de France. A brutal 5,745km race from Evian to Paris, a Tour that will test the limits of human endurance. Thunder and rain are lashing the Pyrenees. Riders – muddied, bloodied and beaten – start to drop out of the race. Men are found shivering in cabins as night falls, and race organiser Henri Desgrange has to make a call. Does he leave them to their fate, turn a blind eye or mount a rescue operation? We Rode All Night is the story of those who took part in that fateful Tour – told in their own voices. We ride with Lucien Buysse, grieving father and erstwhile domestique as well as with two-time champion Ottavio Bottecchia. Andre Drobecq, the lanterne rouge of the Tour, riding to save his bike shop while his pregnant wife wires him funds to survive. Tactician and future national team manager Marcel Bidot, riding his first Tour. And Desgrange himself, losing control over the Tour he created. This is a story of fathers and daughters, of sacrifice and salvation – of riding through the darkness until you find the light.
The History Boys Part Two
The History Boys Part Two celebrates more iconic goals in the illustrious history of Nottingham Forest. Starting in 1880 with Sam Widdowson and ending with the remarkable 2024/25 season, it tells the stories behind the famous goals and some of the more unusual and overlooked efforts. All types of goals are here. Those remarkable strikes from distance that blew our minds. The ones shrouded in controversy. Some secured titles or promotions, others ensured survival. The late ones, the stunning solo efforts and the end products of carefully crafted team moves. Some scored by heroes, others by villains. Goals make us feel delight, despair and everything in between. This is the story of the goals that shaped the trajectory of Nottingham Forest across Victorian beginnings, between the wars, the glorious late 1970s, the giddy days of Frank Clark, the doldrums of the 2000s, right through to the meteoric resurrection of the last four years. Goals are the reason the game is played. Relive those memories.

Addiction
Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring Addiction is a subject which straddles public and personal interests; societal and criminal justice concerns; and family, social, and medical responses. It is a continuing area of uncertainty and concern for society and professionals trained in the field.This Very Short Introduction presents the basic facts about addiction: what it is, how and why it develops, how it is treated, and how society can respond to it. Addictions to both illicit drugs and licit drugs (e.g., alcohol) are covered, as is the possibility that certain behaviours not involving drug use (e.g., compulsive gambling) can qualify as addictions. Keith Humphreys provides a jargon-free account of our present understanding of addiction, from treatment evaluations to studies on the effects of public policies. He also illuminates the personal experience of addiction and recovery. Humphreys considers why some people become addicted and others do not, what treatments exist to help people who are addicted, and how the laws and regulations society establishes about drugs affects the rate and experience of addiction. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
Monograph on German Light Armoured Cars Kfz. 13/14
The Kfz. 13/14 represented a significant step forward for the German army in the realm of armoured scout cars following the devastation of First World War. Initially intended for training purposes, despite their limitations, including inadequate armament, armour, and off-road capabilities, they played a pivotal role in shaping the tactics and strategies of German armoured warfare doctrine. The early scout cars also provided essential training opportunities for crews, helping to develop the skills necessary for operating more advanced armoured vehicles in future conflicts, as well as provided valuable insights into the design of armoured fighting vehicles to the German industry. Despite their contributions to the early development of armoured warfare tactics, Kfz. 13/14 vehicles were already outdated by the outbreak of Second World War and gradually phased out in favour of more modern and capable designs. Nonetheless, their legacy as pioneering platforms in the evolution of armoured reconnaissance vehicles remained significant within the annals of military history. The aim of this book is to tell the lesser-known history of vehicles commonly referred to as "Bathtubs", which despite their unassuming appearance, shaped the generations of German soldiers serving in motorized reconnaissance formations, who after 1939 found themselves at the forefront of armoured formations spreading terror throughout Poland, Low Countries and France.

V súčasnej dobe je možné automobil opodstatnene považovať za neodmysliteľný článok podnikateľskej činnosti. Predstavuje totiž činiteľ, ktorý podnikateľom umožňuje efektívnejšie využívať čas, sprostredkovane môže predstavovať jeden z faktorov vyššej konkurencieschopnosti, čím logicky zvyšuje účinnosť podnikania. Je teda možné konštatovať, že v drvivej väčšine nie je možné bez využívania automobilu v podnikateľskom prostredí úspešne dlhodobo pôsobiť.
V prípadoch, keď používanie automobilu je priamo späté s výkonom podnikateľskej činnosti (t. j. doprava materiálu, osôb, zásobovanie obchodných prevádzok tovarom a pod.) je polemika o potrebe prevádzkovania dopravného prostriedku bezpredmetná. Používanie automobilu na výkon podnikateľskej činnosti alebo v súvislosti s podnikaním je však okrem iného neodlúčiteľne spätá aj s množstvom daňovo-účtovných problémov. Správne uplatnenie výdavkov na pohonné látky je najčastejšie sa vyskytujúca problematika v aplikačnej praxi podnikateľov v spomínanej oblasti.

Daydreamer – Az álmodozó - Éldekorált kiadás
Éldekorált kiadás
Lucy Mayweather sosem tartozott a londoni üzleti élet befolyásos tagjai közé, de most, hogy a bátyja milliomos barátjának dolgozik, bebizonyíthatja, hogy helye van itt, és talán egykori szerelme szívét is elnyerheti. Ám a fiú, akiért annyira odavolt, mostanra eltűnt, és helyét egy rideg, könyörtelen férfi vette át, aki érzéketlen Lucy bájaira.
Talán mégsem volt olyan jó ötlet elfogadni az állást…
Felix Moretti pontosan tudja, hogy nagy hiba volt felvenni Lucyt, aki folyton káoszt kavar a férfi rendezett életében, és leplezetlen rajongásának is nehéz ellenállnia. Ám a kinyúlt pulóverek és szétszórt ábrándok mögött ott rejtőzik a lány, aki egykor elbűvölte…
Távol maradni tőle egyre lehetetlenebb.
Engedni a kísértésnek vakmerőség.
Még többet akarni pedig még rosszabb.
Amikor titkok lepleződnek le, és egy árulás azzal fenyeget, hogy szétszakítja őket, Felixnek mégis harcolnia kell az egyetlen nőért, aki valaha is fontos volt neki – mielőtt végleg elveszíti.

After being wounded, he describes the dire conditions in military hospitals, his attempted escape and his experience of being captured by the Polish militia and taken into Soviet captivity. His memoir details his suffering and that of his fellow German soldiers under a ruthless enemy, highlighting the brutal reality of war and its aftermath. **Two Steps to a Mass Grave** - Kurt F. Lange, a pre-war German citizen of Poznan and former Polish Army soldier, faced persecution due to his origins. After the German invasion, he joined the Waffen-SS, serving in the SS "Lenzer" Combat Group.

Russia's Wagner Group
The ‘Wagner’ mercenary group remained comparatively unknown for years, and only after the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, did the general public learn about the existence of this shadowy organization. But for years before that, they roamed free in Africa and the Middle East, fighting Russia’s conflicts, protecting dictators and waging war against anyone who was declared to be the enemy of the Russian government. Many journalists have attempted to uncover Wagner’s secrets but, for the first time, we hear the voice of an actual Wagner commander, who participated in some of the organization’s operations. This is Igor Salikov, former Wagner commander and the most high-ranking Russian service member who testified against the Russian regime and its crimes in Ukraine for the International Criminal Court in Hague. Igor was not just a soldier, but a high ranking commander, which gave him a unique insight into the organization, structure, political goals and operational procedures of Wagner. The author witnessed the birth of the group and their first operations in Syria, which in 2018, saw and the first battle between US forces and Russians since the end of the Cold War. Later, Wagner infiltrated into other countries and was one of main assets of Russian armed forces in the war against Ukraine. In 2022, after the failure of the initial invasion of Ukraine, Wagner’s leader received an order to recruit directly from prisons, and convicted rapists, murderers and cannibals joined what once was a small and elite mercenary unit. In 2023, Wagner mercenaries attempted to organize a coup against Vladimir Putin but turned back at the last moment. Soon after, the leaders of the group were killed in an aircraft crash, and Wagner disappeared from the spotlight. This book allows us to look at this group through the eyes of someone who has been there, done that, and witnessed the entire history of the Wagner organization, from its origins to its ignominious end.
