Výchova v kocke
Kniha Výchova v kocke je sprievodcom svetom výchovy, ktorý rodičom pomáha pochopiť:
- prečo sú ich deti také, aké sú;
- čo im správanie detí odráža;
- prečo nestačí riešiť iba vonkajšie prejavy detského správania;
- ako dieťaťu skutočne pomôcť;
- že výchova je cestou sebapoznania a sebavýchovy rodiča;
- ako sa terapia dieťaťa prirodzene stáva terapiou aj pre rodiča;
- čo je prvou pomocou v náročných výchovných situáciách;
- ako pracovať s energiou emócií;
- prečo nadmerné emočné prejavy nepatria deťom a komu patria;
- kam sa obrátiť, ak má dieťa psychické alebo psychosomatické ťažkosti.
„Vyrastala som s poruchami učenia i pozornosti. Bola som citlivá, trémistka a v náročných situáciách som často neuspela. Preto veľmi dobre rozumiem, čo tieto ťažkosti v dieťati zanechávajú a koľko neistoty, únavy a pocitu zlyhania dokážu priniesť.
V dospelosti som navyše prešla vážnou chorobou, ktorej bežné vysvetlenia ma neuspokojili. Hľadala som hlbšie príčiny. Otázky o tom, prečo ochorejú aj malé deti, ma priviedli k presvedčeniu, že korene ťažkostí spočívajú v hlboko uložených a zabudnutých rodinných traumách.
Dnes verím, že žiadne ochorenie nevzniklo tu a teraz. Je to príbeh siahajúci doďaleka, ale nie neznámy – je uložený v rodovom archíve, preto s ním môžeme pracovať. Vďaka tomuto poznaniu postupne vznikala kniha Výchova v kocke, ktorá prináša nový pohľad na problémy detí a ich výchovu.“

The Duke
Set in a world of powerful female nobles and the women who love them... Kate, Duke of Howard, is known throughout Europe as a merciless autocrat not to be crossed. Consumed by a bitter rivalry, she avoids society and has vowed never to trap a woman into marriage with a monster like herself. The beautiful, ambitious courtesan Celine Genet once threw herself on the mercy of the visiting Duke of Howard. She was desperate to escape the guillotine. But after a night of searing passion, the duke left her to the ravages of Revolutionary Paris and didn’t look back. Now Celine is in London and in possession of a dangerous letter that proves the Duke of Howard committed treason as a child - and possibly even murder. Celine wants a titled husband in return for keeping the duke’s secret, leaving Kate no choice but to parade her around the most fashionable ballrooms. But as Celine takes society by storm, Kate finds herself growing fond of the woman set on destroying her. And as their attraction mounts, Kate faces an impossible choice: keep her childhood secret, or win the woman she loves. Anna Cowan's The Duke is an utterly unforgettable, page-turning romance featuring two women who, separately, are a danger to each other, but together, could be the most powerful duo London has ever seen.
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.”
The Eustace Diamonds
''She liked lies...To lie readily and cleverly, recklessly and yet successfully, was, according to the lessons which she had learned, a necessity in a woman''Lizzie Eustace is young, beautiful, and widowed. Her determination to hold on to the Eustace family''s diamond necklace in the face of legal harassment by her brother-in-law''s solicitor entangles her in a series of crimes - apparent and real - and contrived love-affairs. Her cousin Frank, Tory MP and struggling barrister, loyally assists her, to the distress of his fiancée, Lucy Morris. A pompous Under-Secretary of State, an exploitative and acquisitive American and her unhappy niece, a shady radical peer, and a brutal aristocrat are only some of the characters in this, one of Trollope''s most engaging novels: part sensation fiction, part detective story, part political satire, and part ironic romance.The Eustace Diamonds (1873) belongs to Trollope''s Palliser series. Though often considered the least political of the six novels, it is a highly revealing study of Victorian Britain, its colonial activities in Ireland and India, its veneration of wealth, and its pervasive dishonesty. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
The Ultraviolet Catastrophe
Legal-high addict, gaming enthusiast, and principal shareholder of AstroLabs , Lex Rameses, has recently discovered and purchased Proserpina: a planet with a near-identical ecosystem to Earth s.

Enter a cast of mad scientists, Astro Marxists, a neurorobotic AI hivemind, an extinction anxiety addict, the victims of an interrelated crypto-currency gaming scam, and a seemingly endless succession of ravers and gamers in search of the ultimate hallucinogenic, carcinogenic, ne -space-age high

Lékařem v zemi spícího krokodýla
Ondřej Šimetka se mezi lety 1999–2019 pětkrát vracel do Východního Timoru. Celkem zde strávil více než tři roky života. Přijel do země zničené konfliktem a chudobou, kde mezi běžné diagnózy patřily podvýživa, malárie, dengue a panovala tu nejvyšší mateřská úmrtnost v Asii. Novorozenecký život byl spíš otázkou štěstí než medicíny. Byl svědkem budování nové země doslova z popela.
Pracoval jako tropický lékař, porodník, školitel porodních asistentek i lékařů. Po dvaceti letech se stal svědkem mimořádné proměny: poklesu mateřské úmrtnosti o více než 75?%, vymýcení malárie i spalniček a návratu naděje do míst, kde dříve chybělo téměř vše – kromě lidské síly přežít.
Po celou dobu si psal deníky, příběhy a postřehy z každodenní praxe. V této knize je sdílí s nadhledem, humorem i pokorou – skrze silné osudy pacientek, absurdní situace v tropickém zdravotnictví i drobné momenty, které rozhodují o životě a smrti. Text doplňuje historickými a kulturními souvislostmi, které dávají těmto příběhům hlubší smysl.
Bluffer's Guide to Fitness
In a culture dominated by gym fail memes, sweat patches, and a bit too much grunting, the fitness world is embarrassing enough without not knowing what to do, how to act or what to say. Whether holding your own in a fitness discussion with a high-intensity gym 'bro', or nervously stepping onto the treadmill for the first time, The Bluffer's Guide to Fitness is for everyone who wants to make fitness a part of their daily life. Fitness bluffers of all ages and genders will appreciate the hints, tips and no-nonsense advice on how to bluff your way around a gym, park run or swimming pool; how to pre-empt - and even counter-offer - fitness advice; how to safely break fitness etiquette to your advantage; and how to look and sound fitter than you actually are. Covering a broad spectrum, from weightlifting and gym classes to home gyms and street fitness, The Bluffer's Guide to Fitness is essential reading for bluffers wanting to survive a trip to the gym; for bluffers wanting to emerge victorious in a conversation with a fitness expert; and for anyone who has flirted with the idea of fitness after realising 'cuddly' isn't actually a compliment.
A lány, akinek nyoma veszett
Connie Rydert az éjszaka közepén rabolják el az otthonából. A rémült lány először azt hiszi, emberkereskedők markába került, amikor azonban a Silver Lake Akadémiára szállítják, be kell látnia, hogy a helyzete még annál is kétségbeejtőbb, mint gondolta. Az édesapja és a nevelőanyja íratta be a távoli, szigorúan őrzött, problémás tinédzserek számára létrehozott intézménybe. A bentlakásos akadémia nevelési programja rendkívül egyszerű: a renitens kamaszok viselkedésének javítása. Minden eszközzel, bármi áron. Connie nem sokkal az érkezése után szembesül a sötét titokkal, hogy egy olyan lány ágyát kapta meg, aki nyomtalanul tűnt el az intézményből. A kötet díszletét ugyan egy elképzelt amerikai intézmény adja, a sodró erejű regény mondanivalója azonban általános: az elnyomó hatalom működésének túlkapásai és az annak kiszolgáltatottak sorsa.
Az olasz nagyik nem tévednek
A jó olasz konyha nem varázslat, és nem is pusztán nosztalgia. A tökéletes tészta, a lassan sűrűsödő bolognai, az olívaolaj és paradicsom magától értetődő párosa mögött évszázadok alatt felhalmozódott tudás rejtőzik – olyan tudás, amelyet ma már a tudomány is kezd megérteni. Miért kell pihentetni a fokhagymát? Mi történik a rizottóban keverés közben? Mitől más biokémiailag egy valóban jó tészta, mint az iparilag előállított, és hogyan lehetséges, hogy egy szicíliai nagymama generációk óta, ösztönösen csinálja azt, aminek a biokémiai magyarázatára csak az utóbbi évtizedekben jöttek rá?
Ez a könyv a mediterrán konyha legismertebb fogásait egyszerre nézi a gasztronómia és a kémia szemüvegén keresztül. Nem diétás könyv és nem klasszikus szakácskönyv, hanem izgalmas utazás az ízek, a hagyomány és a tudomány világában. Feltárja, mi zajlik valójában a tésztafőző vízben, a pizzakemencében vagy egy négy órán át rotyogó szósz mélyén. A tejszín nélküli krémes szósztól az igazi ízbomba gelatóig, a néhány összetevős tésztától a kovászos kenyérig minden fejezet egy régi konyhai bölcsességet vizsgál meg, és megmutatja, mitől működik.
Mert a mediterrán étrend nem trend, hanem az az étkezési minta, amelynek egészségvédő hatásait a világ legjobb vizsgálatai újra és újra igazolják. Ez a könyv pedig nem egyszerűen azt mondja el, mit érdemes enni, és azt hogyan kell elkészíteni, hanem azt is, hogy miért. Ha eddig azért szeretted az olasz konyhát, mert finom, ezután talán azért is fogod szeretni, mert érted.
The Secret of Secrets
The long-awaited new race-against-time thriller from the global bestselling author of The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons.
Accompanying celebrated academic, Katherine Solomon, to a lecture she's been invited to give in Prague, Robert Langdon's world spirals out of control when she disappears without trace from their hotel room. Far from home and out of his comfort zone, Langdon must pit his wits against forces unknown to recover the woman he loves.
But Prague is an old and dangerous place, steeped in folklore and mystery. Little can Langdon know that he is being stalked by a spectre from that dark past. He must use all of his arcane knowledge to navigate a shadow city hiding in plain sight, a city which has successfully kept its secrets for centuries and will not readily give them up.
The Secret Of Secrets is Dan Brown's first novel for over eight years and sees the stunning return of Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon, this time pitting his wits against a conspiracy which will test even his considerable brainpower and take him to the edge of losing all that he holds dear…

Smart, funny, and practical, this book is a must-read for anyone craving success with joy.
The Scythians
The Scythians offers a bold new take on the horse-riding peoples who once inhabited the vast steppe lands from the Black Sea to the Siberian Altai. Drawing on archaeological finds, ancient texts and comparative insights, Caspar Meyer shows how these communities forged dynamic networks rooted in art, mobility and interspecies relationships. He brings ancient and modern encounters with the Scythians into dialogue – from Herodotus’ ethnography to modernist art and contemporary national imaginations – revealing how their literary and visual afterlives continue to shape our understanding. Long reduced to barbarian stereotypes, the Scythians emerge as cultural innovators and co-creators of Eurasian history. Lively, accessible and thought-provoking, this book opens up a world in which people and things move together in unexpected and transformative ways.
A szárnyszegő
Hogyan lesz egy tehetséges költőből kommunista propagandista, majd "szárnyszegő"? Hogyan alakítják át a gyerekkori, fiatalkori traumák a személyiségünket? Mi köze a holokausztnak Erdős Péter későbbi döntéseihez? Mennyire változtat meg minket a hatalom, egy valódi diktatúra? Hogyan lehet úgy írni Erdősről, hogy közben a lányát a mesterünknek tartottuk? Ezekre a kérdésekre keresi a választ Mező Gábor kötetében, amelyet elolvasva végigkövethetjük a címszereplő életét és a különböző tiltott, tűrt és támogatott együttesek és előadók történetét. Szóba kerül sok más művész mellett Bródy János, Cserháti Zsuzsa, Török Ádám és Koncz Zsuzsa, az Illés, az LGT, az Omega, a P. Mobil, a Neoton, a Kati és a Kerek Perec sorsa. Megismerhetjük a punkok lázadásának, önsorsrontó bátorságának históriáját, és közben meghallgathatjuk a szerző legkedvesebb magyar dalait.
Taiwan
While most English-language histories of Taiwan focus on its geopolitical role, this history centres on the people of Taiwan themselves and explores how they have formed a unique polity, telling the story of the Indigenous Taiwanese, the Hoklo and Hakka who came from China before the twentieth century, Japanese colonialism and the Chinese who arrived after 1945. Historian Evan N. Dawley describes how successive waves of immigration changed Taiwan and how these diverse groups of Indigenous tribes and settlers interacted economically and culturally, creating new Taiwanese identities in the process. Over the last century Taiwan has developed from an authoritarian state to one of the world’s most vibrant democracies and advanced economies. It is a successful independent society, albeit one whose existence remains under a shadow.
Mississippi Conviction
Mississippi Conviction: Betrayal, Brotherhood, and the Fall of the Klan recounts a remarkable and underreported story of conscience, courage, and moral reckoning at the height of the civil rights era in Mississippi. On Father’s Day, June 21, 1964, three civil rights workers were murdered by the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan after visiting a burned church in Neshoba County. The brutal killings shocked the nation and launched a major FBI investigation into Mississippi’s "closed society." Amid the search for justice, federal agents turned to an unlikely ally: Reverend Delmar Dennis, a Methodist minister and chaplain for the WKKKK. Dennis’s decision to become an FBI informant came after a pivotal conversation with his friend and mentor, Reverend Carl McArn, a civil rights supporter and advocate for church integration. Their friendship—and the ideological divide it represented—mirrored the broader split within Mississippi’s white churches over race and justice. Coauthored by novelist Stephen J. Gordin and Carl E. McArn II, son of Reverend McArn, this gripping narrative explores the power of moral influence and personal transformation. Drawing on extensive interviews and archival research, Mississippi Conviction reveals how one man’s betrayal of the Klan became a critical turning point in dismantling a violent domestic terrorist network—and how another’s quiet mentorship helped make that decision possible.
Gilgamesh
Gilgamesh is the story of the godlike ruler of the ancient Mesopotamian city Uruk. The start of the poem finds Gilgamesh as a brutal tyrant, whose potency is unmatched and unchecked. The god Aruru fashions him a match, a wild man called Enkidu, who fights the ruler but soon becomes Gilgamesh’s beloved companion and friend. The story of their shared heroism, the pain of Enkidu’s untimely death, and of Gilgamesh’s quest for immortality was told across a series of cuneiform clay tablets. It is said to be the oldest recorded literary work. David Ferry’s elegant verse rendering transmutes the ancient epic into the language of our time. Much like Robert Fitzgerald’s Odyssey or Seamus Heaney’s Beowulf, Ferry’s Gilgamesh is a work whose poetic invention and lyrical rendering makes new that which is ancient, and draws forth the antique echoes that persist in our moment.
The Wind in the Willows
''Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.''So says Rat to Mole, as he introduces him to the delights of the river and his friends Toad, the spirit of rebellion, and Badger, the spirit of England. But it is a world where the motor-car is about to wreck the gipsy caravan, the revolutionaries in the Wild Wood are threatening the social fabric, the god Pan is abroad, and the warm seductive whispers of the south are drifting into the English lanes.An international children''s classic, The Wind in the Willows grew from the author''s letters to his young son, yet it is concerned almost exclusively with adult themes: fear of radical changes in political, social, and economic power. Mole''s acceptance into the conservative world of the River Bank, and Toad''s wild attempts to escape from it, are narrated in virtuoso language ranging from lively parody to elaborate fin-de-siecle mysticism. A profoundly English fiction with a world following, it is a book for adults adopted by children, a timeless masterpiece, and a vital portrait of an age. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
