Henri Cartier-Bresson
Described as ‘magnificent’ by the Good Book Guide, this lavishly illustrated monograph traces Cartier-Bresson’s development as a photographer, activist, journalist and artist.This is an indispensable work for lovers of photography and admirers of Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908–2004), whose influence continues to endure so powerfully today. In addition to some of his best-known photographs, here are many seldom seen or unpublished images, and some rarities in colour as well as black and white. His work embraced art, politics, revolution and war. But more powerful than any of these overarching themes was his evident concern for the human individual at every social level. Cartier-Bresson’s observations of the effects of poverty and revolution around the world led directly to his pioneering photojournalism, and his co-founding of Magnum Photos. He also became renowned for his penetrating portraits of the most prominent figures of his time: Cartier-Bresson’s biographer Pierre Assouline called him ‘the eye of the century’.
Osudy dobrého vojáka Švejka za světové války
Mám velice rád toho dobrého vojáka Švejka, a podávaje jeho osudy za světové války, jsem přesvědčen, že vy všichni budete sympatizovat s tím skromným, nepoznaným hrdinou.“ Tak uvádí roku 1921 Jaroslav Hašek (1883–1923) na scénu onu svéráznou a výřečnou postavu demaskující absurditu války a byrokracie, jejíž příhody „v zázemí“ i „na frontě“ znají čtenáři po celém světě. Po nedávném nečekaném nálezu rukopisu Haškova románu proto vycházejí Osudy dobrého vojáka Švejka v aktualizované edici, doplněné detailně zpracovanými vysvětlivkami a s analytickým komentářem Jiřího Holého.

Z milosti Himalájí
Cesta sa nekončí tam, kde utíchajú moje kroky. Pokračuje v mojom vnútri.
Nebola horolezkyňa. Nebola športovkyňa. Len niekto, koho prenasledovala jediná otázka: „Načo tam išiel?“
Simone Smolinska sa vydáva do Himalájí, aby sa priblížila k obrom, no cesta čoskoro začne znamenať oveľa viac než len hory, priesmyky a základné tábory. Rednúci vzduch, nekonečné schody, vyčerpanie, strach aj prijatie vlastného tempa sa stávajú zrkadlami, v ktorých spoznáva samu seba.
Od láskavého ticha Bhutánu cez nemilosrdnú krásu okruhu Annapurny až po základný tábor – každý krok ju učí pokore, vytrvalosti, dôvere a tomu, že nie všetko treba dobyť.
Z milosti Himalájí je intímny a úprimný cestopis o vonkajších aj vnútorných oporách, príbeh ženy, ktorá nehľadala vrchol, no napriek tomu v sebe našla niečo dôležité.

Forged in Rome - Ink and Iron 1
THE UNMISSABLE ADVENTURE FROM SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, CONN IGGULDEN
Can a slave . . . become a master?
AD 37. The Roman Republic has become a true empire, stretching from Egypt to the seacoast of Gaul. Sixty million people live under its rule.
A scribe in a noble household on the outskirts of the empire’s greatest city, a young man who has no memory of his past or his family. Where freedom exists for the privileged few, he has only ever known a life of slavery. His name is Cormac.
When Cormac’s master dies suddenly under suspicious circumstances, he finds himself furnished with documents freeing him from bondage. Surviving somewhere between slave and citizen, he quickly discovers the dangers that come with freedom. The city is a pitiless place for those without allies.
But the winds of fate are shifting. Cormac’s talents – his treasured ability to read and write – will soon take him from city slums to the mines of Gaul, to the island of Britannia and back to the hills of Rome.
Slave, scribe, soldier – Cormac will have to play Rome’s most dangerous game if he’s to secure wealth and power. For in this city, with skill, ambition and luck, perhaps such things can be won . . .

Sebastian Kneipp a jeho svět léčivých bylin
Páter Sebastian Kneipp proslul jako otec vodoléčby. Méně známé jsou jeho bylinářské znalosti, byliny doporučované v domácnosti nebo jeho příruční domácí lékárna. Ta kromě jiných prostředků obsahuje
jablečný ocet, který působí jako všestranný léčivý prostředek k podpoře trávení a k dezinfekci a aktivaci látkové výměny, protože usmrcuje choroboplodné zárodky. Velmi zajímavé jsou i bikarbonát
sodný neboli jedlá soda, která na sebe může vázat přebytečné kyseliny, a také sprašové usazeniny. Pocházejí z doby ledové, jsou bohaté na minerály a mohou se používat vnitřně i zevně. Osobitým přínosem Kneippovy bylinné léčby jsou sušené traviny, protože sušina na základě svojí rozmanitosti obsahuje nejrůznější účinné látky, éterické oleje, třísloviny, kumariny, pryskyřice nebo přírodní barviva. Zajímavá je zkušenost tvrdě pracujících venkovských lidí, kteří zjistili, že spaní v seně působí jako elixír mládí a přes noc dovede zmírnit nebo docela odstranit různé bolesti. Významnou rostlinou, která získala věhlas hlavně za Kneippovy éry, bylo zelí, nazývané lékařem chudých. Tato kniha, koncipovaná jako průvodce celým rokem, obsahuje několik zajímavých receptů na jeho úpravu. Mimořádným příspěvkem faráře Kneippa jsou dvě bylinné směsi. Nazval je Krtek a slouží k podpoře trávení.
