Rosie Maxwellová má jasný plán! Chce sa stať uznávanou autorkou ľúbostných románov, a tak sa zapojí do programu kreatívneho písania Newyorskej univerzity. Všetko je dokonalé až do chvíle, keď sa ocitne v jednej triede so svojím úhlavným nepriateľom Aidenom Huntigtonom. Áno, možno sa jej kedysi páčil, a áno, rozhodne je až rozčuľujúco príťažlivý, ale všetko kazí svojou mrzutou a neznesiteľnou povahou. Zdá sa, že ani on ako autor existenčných románov nemá trpezlivosť s Rosie a jej romantickými nezmyslami. Profesorka, unavená ich večnými hádkami, im dá na výber – buď opustia jej kurz, alebo spoločne napíšu román, v ktorom prepoja oba svoje žánre. Rosie a Aiden sa rozhodnú spolupracovať a pustia sa do písania prekvapivo vzrušujúceho príbehu. Možno je toto ten najlepší spôsob, ako sa uvoľniť a preskúmať vzájomnú príťažlivosť. Sľubne sa vyvíjajúci projekt však narazí na prekážku a nezhody medzi Rosie a Aidenom opäť naplno prepuknú. Každý má totiž inú predstavu o tom, ako by sa mal skončiť ich spoločný ľúbostný príbeh.

Strážkyňa stratených miest
Zlo existuje aj v mierumilovnom svete
Dvanásťročná Sophie Fosterová je výnimočne inteligentné dievča, ktoré nemá žiadnych priateľov. Navyše ju ťaží tajomstvo – ako telepatka počuje myšlienky ostatných ľudí. Netuší, odkiaľ sa táto schopnosť vzala a najradšej by sa skryla pred ľuďmi ako sivá myška. Od chvíle, keď na nej spočinie pohľad záhadného (a pekného) modrookého chlapca, celý jej život sa prevráti naruby. Stretnutie s Fitzom nebola náhoda a všetko konečne dáva zmysel. Dokonca aj Sophiine schopnosti. Aby ich rozvinula naplno, musí opustiť svoju rodinu a vydať sa do úplne neznámeho sveta. Vzťahy medzi elfmi a ľuďmi sú totiž zakázané. Až na prestížnej akadémii pre nadaných elfov Sophie pochopí, v akom klame dovtedy žila a že jej myseľ zďaleka neodhalila všetky tajomstvá. Zdá sa, že aj medzi svojimi je pomerne neobyčajná a existuje dôvod, pre ktorý ju tak dlho ukrývali vo svete ľudí. Má totiž niečo, pre čo by iní zabíjali. Sophie tak čaká najťažšia skúška – musí odhaliť pravdu, skôr než sa k nej dostane temnota.

Twice her age, Lincoln is an eccentric and reclusive billionaire, a genius or a monster depending on who you ask, his face hidden behind a mask as inscrutable as his actions. But what if everything I’ve ever known has been a lie? When Imogen arrives at his mansion, she soon realizes she and Lincoln are both haunted by their past, fighting demons that threaten to consume them. Can passion form in the ashes of their shared torment, or will it burn them both before they have a chance to escape? I was trained to be a pawn… But I will rise as a queen.
Reminiscenčná terapia
Cieľom tejto učebnice je zmysluplne podporiť seniorov – nielen v oblasti sociálnej starostlivosti, ale aj v ich každodennom prežívaní, správaní a vzťahoch. V období, keď sa mnohí z nich ocitajú v izolácii, stereotypnom rytme života v zariadeniach či komunitných centrách, alebo postupne strácajú kontakt s okolím, ponúka táto publikácia konkrétne nástroje a inšpirácie na ich aktivizáciu a sociálne začlenenie. Plnohodnotný, dôstojný a radostný život seniorov si vyžaduje kvalitne pripravených odborníkov, ktorí budú schopní túto víziu napĺňať v každodennej praxi. Práve preto je táto učebnica adresovaná predovšetkým študentom odborov ako sociálna práca, psychológia, andragogika či ošetrovateľstvo, teda tým, ktorí stoja na začiatku tejto cesty. Zároveň je určená aj odborníkom pôsobiacim v zariadeniach sociálnych služieb a komunitných centrách, teda sociálnym pracovníkom, inštruktorom sociálnej rehabilitácie, psychológom, sociálnym andragógom/geragógom, ošetrovateľom a ďalším profesionálom, ktorí sa venujú seniorskej populácii.
Publikácia vychádza z aktuálnych teoretických východísk a ponúka čitateľovi ucelený pohľad na špecifickú intervenciu zameranú na seniorov – od jej charakteristiky, cez implementáciu, odporúčania, až po predstavenie komplexného programu.

Publikácia zachytáva stabilizáciu rozhodovacej praxe súdov v rodinnoprávnych veciach, prehĺbenú úlohu Najvyššieho súdu SR pri zjednocovaní súdneho rozhodovania a pozitívny vplyv týchto procesov na predvídateľnosť súdnych rozhodnutí ako súčasť práva na spravodlivý proces. Osobitná pozornosť je venovaná praktickým inováciám v oblasti starostlivosti o maloleté deti, najmä čiastočnej implementácii Cochemského modelu do konania pred súdom, ako aj zavedeniu indikatívnej tabuľky vzorového výživného vypracovanej Ministerstvom spravodlivosti SR. Komentár zohľadňuje aj konkrétne novelizácie zákona o rodine, ktoré sa dotkli miestnej príslušnosti pri uzatváraní manželstva civilnou formou, zavedenia inštitútu spoločnej osobnej starostlivosti, zmiernenia predpokladov pre výkon rodičovských práv a povinností, ako aj spresnenia ustanovení Civilného mimosporového poriadku v rodinnoprávnych veciach a zavedenia inštitútu rodinného sudcu. Publikácia je neoceniteľnou pomôckou pre sudcov, advokátov, pracovníkov orgánov sociálnoprávnej ochrany detí, mediátorov i študentov právnických fakúlt.

The Faith of Beasts
From the multi-million-copy bestselling author of the Expanse comes the second book in the Captive's War series - a spectacular new space opera that sees humanity fighting for its survival in a war as old as the universe itself.
The monstrous Carryx empire was built by subjugation and war. Thousands of species are bound to their Sovran's command in an endless, blood-soaked test: be useful in the eternal conflict or be slaughtered.
Dafyd Alkhor, highest among their human captives, is feared and despised by the very people he champions. Ruthless in carving out his niche in the eternal war machine of the empire, he will reshape human nature itself as a tool for their alien masters' use. But Dafyd's loyalty is not what it seems.
The Swarm, an agent of the Carryx's deathless enemy, has been smuggled into the Carryx world-palace along with the human slaves. Its mission: discover a way to bring down the empire's eternal reign. But the longer it lives among and within humanity, the more it forgets that it is a weapon.
As the human captives spread through the battlefronts of empire, the awesome power of the Carryx becomes clear. And with it, a desperate plan for their destruction. But empires hide secrets, and even the deathless enemy may not be what it appears . . .

Through the Eyes of Jewish Child Survivors from Poland
Through the Eyes of Jewish Child Survivors from Poland offers an intimate social history of Jewish childhood during and after the Holocaust. Centered on children from German-occupied Poland but informed by experiences across Nazi-occupied Europe, the book highlights the child's own perspective to illuminate rescue, survival, and relationships with adults under the Nazi occupation. In the first part, Joanna Beata Michlic examines children's wartime experiences, showing how agency, gender, class, and religious or social background shaped their chances of survival. The second part traces the complex efforts of these young survivors to reclaim both childhood and Jewish identity, revealing the gap between their hopes and the actual opportunities of the immediate postwar period. Drawing on children's diaries, letters, testimonies, and memoirs, Michlic illuminates how children experienced and remembered trauma: the destruction of their families, the loss of their prewar worlds, and the struggle to adapt to a new reality, challenging myths that sentimentalize the children's endurance and portray the Holocaust as neatly concluded. This powerful study shows why the history of Holocaust child survivors remains a vital resource for understanding vulnerability, agency, and the enduring impact of war and genocide.

Convergence
Includes free streaming access to a corresponding video series. Many Christians and ministry leaders think that much of what Jesus did on earth was because he was God. When we think this, we neglect Scripture where it tells us that Jesus, though always God, deliberately chose to limit his divine attributes and power. Looking at Jesus's life and ministry Thompson asks, "If Jesus chose to limit his divine attributes and power, how did he do all of this?" Here Thompson finds the convergence of three things that should ultimately shape our own lives:Jesus used spiritual disciplines (or practices) to walk with the Father and to develop and learn as we do. Jesus used spiritual gifts (not his inherent power) to carry out his ministry while on earth. Jesus used the promptings he received from the Father and the Spirit to lead his disciples into moments of revival. In Convergence: Spiritual Gifts, Practices, and Unusual Works of the Spirit you will come to realize that Jesus as God come in flesh isn't just our Savior and our Lord; he is also our model for understanding what the normal Christian life should look like. This comprehensive resource aims at understanding the intersection of spiritual gifts (love, word, and power), spiritual disciplines (or practices), and unusual works of the Spirit (revival) in the life of the local church. "Convergence is a powerful book. It beautifully weaves together the gifts and the power of the Spirit and the disciplines of the Spirit in a fresh, holistic, and transformative way. I highly recommend this to you." ––Jon Tyson, Senior Pastor of Church of the City, NY and author of Beautiful Resistance"When I first heard Pastor Jon Thompson, dots began to connect in a powerful way and when we sat together later, he spoke about Jesus not just being our Saviour and Lord, but our Model. Spiritual gifts, spiritual disciplines, spiritual experiences––he gave me handles that I had been looking for. This was the word we all need right now." ––Ann Voskamp, author of four New York Times best-selling books, including The Broken Way

Out of the depths
Available for the first time in English translation, this collection of songs is a powerful memorial to the victims of the Holocaust. In June 1945, before the full devastation of the Holocaust had emerged, a team of researchers embarked on a remarkable project. While documenting the experiences of Jewish refugees, they began to collect songs composed and sung in the Nazi camps and ghettos. The resulting book, Mima’amakim (Out of the depths), was published in a short run of 500 copies. Today, only a handful survive. Out of the depths: The first collection of Holocaust songs presents the contents of this extraordinary document for a new generation of readers. Based on a copy of Mima’amakim discovered in 2013, it contains not only the songs’ melodies and lyrics, the latter in a new translation by Joseph Toltz, but also short biographies of the composers, drawn from painstaking original research. Introductory essays provide historical and musicological background, deepening our knowledge of this terrible event and the creative means by which the Jewish people responded to and endured it. Described by the original editor, Yehuda Eismann, as a ‘memorial stone for Polish Jewry’, the songbook is a timeless document of a people’s despair, hope and strength. -- .

Confidence Men
Why do millions of Americans support a system that is making them poorer, sicker, and lesssecure every day? If modern capitalism routinely exploits working people, then why do so manyflock to its most reactionary defenders in personalities like Jordan Peterson, Elon Musk, andAndrew Tate? Or, as the philosopher Baruch Spinoza asked, why do we fight for slavery as if itwere our salvation? Confidence Men: The Duping of the American Mind provides a compellinganswer to those questions. Mere journalistic accounts of these hucksters have pointed out their many lies and inaccuracies,their personal failings and rank hypocrisy. Confidence Men does something different. Instead oftreating these sensational figures as individual bad actors, it identifies a common philosophythat animates them all. Each of them are, in their own ways, irrationalists – believing in thepower of a strong will to overcome ordinary reality (and ordinary people). Objective facts,nature, and even “human nature” melt away before the creative genius or the mystical hero. Today’s “confidence men” are the cheerleaders of hierarchy and domination, where thesupreme value is one of unhinged belief in oneself. As against reactionary forms of self-help,Confidence Men proposes a rationalist alternative – neither wishing our problems away, nor“manifesting” success – but instead, understanding the world so that we can change it for thebetter.
