RHS Wildlife of a Garden
"One of the great heroines of wildlife gardening" Dave Goulson Foreword by Chris Packham First published in 2010 by the RHS, Jennifer Owen's book remains the most complete record of the creatures to be found in an ordinary garden. The groundbreaking research, in which Owen recorded every plant and animal in her suburban Leicester garden, will never be exceeded. This was no wildlife garden - the term barely existed when Owen started recording in 1972. Hers was a standard family garden in suburban Leicester. In this unique long-term study she recorded 2,673 species, from plants to insects, birds to mammals. She discusses diversity, abundance and annual fluctuations and relates these to weather, changes in surrounding land use and other ecological factors. Wildlife she monitored included butterflies, moths, beetles, hoverflies (Owen's specialist area), bees, wasps, ants, dragonflies, sawflies, bugs, spiders, lacewings, grasshoppers, molluscs and earthworms, as well as plants, mammals and birds. She also outlines the natural history of each group. Researchers in ecology, conservation, environmental sciences, environmental horticulture and entomology as well as professionals in urban planning will find this book invaluable. It is also a captivating read for amateur naturalists and anyone with an interest in garden wildlife. Dr Jennifer Owen (1936-2015) was an ecologist and zoologist. It was while working in Africa in the 1960s that she noticed her garden had more wildlife than the neighbouring rainforest, due to its mix of habitats. This prompted her, on return to the UK and a post at Leicester University in 1971, to begin the remarkable study that was to occupy her next 30 years.
Yellow September
"Multiple narrators add depth and texture to an engaging tale of loss and resilience." —Kirkus Indie ReviewsIn a heartwarming story of love, loss, and perseverance, debut author Shannon Terry Wiley chronicles the experiences of those in Shreveport, Louisiana, during the September 1873 outbreak of yellow fever, which ultimately killed over a thousand individuals. Weaving together fictional storylines and real history, Wiley paints a vivid picture of the unspeakable tragedy and the people who lived through it. Through multiple points of view, Yellow September narrates the fortunes of those in the fever-wracked town. Two brothers, George and Eugene, find themselves far from their Midwestern roots while working for the Army Corps of Engineers. Sent to battle a massive logjam blocking the Red River, the pair find themselves grappling with two very different commitments. Meanwhile, Katherine, a farm girl living along the Silver Bayou with her family, who are still grieving the wartime death of her father, faces a difficult choice with consequences that echo throughout her life. Others, like Dr. Dalzell, a pastor and doctor in town, and Eleanor and David, parents fleeing the fever, bring a nuanced perspective to the experiences of those swept up in the outbreak. With epistolary touches throughout, the novel is a testament to the enduring love of family—those we are born with and those we choose—and tells a profound story of duty, devotion, and community.

Ironwood
Sworn to protect a scenic island meant to be far from the evils of the mainland, Detective Sergeant Stilwell can feel danger closing in.
Detective Sergeant Stilwell knows that his posting on Catalina Island is no paradise, but to most residents, it seems blissfully separated-by twenty-two miles of ocean-from the troubles of Los Angeles County. But now a threat is coming to his safe haven.
Acting on a tip from a confidential informant, Stilwell and his deputies watch a plane land in the middle of the night at the Airport in the Sky, a remote airstrip in the mountains. A duffel bag of drugs is dropped and the deputies move in, but things quickly go sideways.
While Stilwell chases the fleeing pickup man into the mountainside brush, shots are fired on the runway and the plane flies off.
An internal inquiry follows, putting Stilwell on the bench until he is cleared of responsibility for the disastrous operation. But he is determined to find out who brought deadly violence to his island, and begins his own secret investigation into the drug deal gone wrong.
While under orders to remain in the sheriff's substation, he finds in the lost and found a valuable backpack that was never claimed. He traces it to a woman who disappeared while hiking on the island four years ago.
But then why was the pack only turned in two months back? Now thoroughly intrigued, he follows the mystery all the way to the LAPD's Open-Unsolved Unit and Detective Renee Ballard.
Stilwell and Ballard work the case from both sides of the channel, and soon realize they are on the trail of a criminal who revels in taunting the authorities. Meanwhile, frustrated at being shut out of an investigation on his own island, Stilwell risks his already shaky standing in the department to pursue a case whose reach is wider than he ever imagine.
The Never List - Never List 1
'You think I chose you because I wanted to?' He shakes his head, that laugh sliding like warm whiskey over my bare skin. 'I had to choose you. I needed to choose you. There was no stopping it. And the second the words came out of my mouth, I knew I'd damned us.'
Threatened by invaders, the kingdom of Lumathyst is on the verge of chaos, and no one can stop it. Unless the four immortal god-princes find their fated mate - and safeguard the throne - Lumathyst will fall.
Five women have tried. Five have failed. And tonight in the royal city, the princes need to find their Chosen and hope she can survive the transformation that will make her immortal.
Only Rylee Gray wasn't supposed to be here. She snuck in for her own dark reasons - and now they claim they've found their perfect match. Her. Of course, they have no idea she's concealing a secret big enough to damn them all.
The four princes have no choice. They'll use every delectably wicked skill they have to make Rylee fall for all of them . . . or watch their kingdom collapse.

Mediácia, či medikácia...to je otázka!
Hoci je publikácia MEDIÁCIA, ČI MEDIKÁCIA... TO JE OTÁZKA! alebo riešenie a prevencia sporov v zdravotníctve primárne určená osobám angažujúcim sa v riešení problémových situácií v oblasti zdravotníctva, významný zdroj inšpirácie si v nej môžu nájsť aj lekári, zdravotné sestry, fyzioterapeuti, sanitári, záchranári, farmaceuti... Inými slovami všetci, ktorí denne prichádzajú do kontaktu s pacientmi a v prípade problémových situácií môžu vystupovať aj ako tzv. neformálni alebo laickí mediátori pri skvalitnení komunikácie a poskytnutí ,prvej pomoci pri riešení konfliktných situácií v zdravotníckom zariadení. Problematika je vo významnej miere spracovaná z pohľadu pacienta a jeho základného zorientovania sa v možnostiach využitia mediácie pri riešení jeho sťažností a problémov. Téma mediácie v zdravotníckom systéme má svoje špecifiká, pracuje s individuálnymi aplikačnými nástrojmi a má široké spektrum využitia. Počínajúc riešením sporov medzi pacientom, respektíve jeho rodinnými príslušníkmi a poskytovateľom zdravotných služieb, cez riešenie interpersonálnych a skupinových konfliktov v zdravotníckom zariadení, až po spory medzi manažmentom a inštitúciami, respektíve firmami (dodávatelia, zdravotné poisťovne, zriaďovatelia...), ktoré participujú na chode zdravotníckeho zariadenia. Dôležitým momentom v aplikácii mediácie v zdravotníckom zariadení je aj prevencia pri predchádzaní konfliktom, okrem iného, skvalitnením komunikácie s pacientom, nastavením vertikálnej komunikácie medzi manažmentom a zamestnancami, respektíve horizontálnej komunikácie medzi zdravotníckymi zamestnancami navzájom.
Liar's Kingdom
"The 2020 election was a total FRAUD!" "I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally." "There is NO WAY Biden got 80,000,000 votes!!!" These and other lies by Donald Trump sparked a historic insurrection to topple US democracy and undermined the public's faith in elections. The Trump administration's deceit has enabled the use of law enforcement and the military against the people, the unlawful deportation of immigrants, and the disregard of international rules meant to promote a civilized and peaceful world. Other politicians, inspired by the success of the political lie, have flooded the public square with falsehoods of their own. As Andrew Weissmann reveals, our vulnerability to politicians' lies stems from a flaw in America's legal system - one that can be fixed. But it will take courage, creativity, and a willingness to look to other countries, including Brazil, France, Germany, and the UK, that have already confronted this crisis. A slim, elegant treatise, Liar's Kingdom is a playbook for stopping politicians like Trump from holding office in the future - and for saving democracy. We are entitled to more from our governments, and Weissmann shows us how we can get it.

As Taylor fights to identify him before he completes his twisted homage, the investigation pulls her into a conspiracy that hits closer to home than she ever imagined.

Secrets from Sanda's heritage begin to surface, revealing ancient obligations that could reshape everything he thought he knew. Friendships are tested, loyalties strained, and the very essence of the lost "magic of Christmas" flickers on the edge of extinction.

Z Prahy do Jeruzaléma a zpět
Stát Izrael se v současnosti dostal do středu pozornosti celého světa. Je důležité porozumět jeho vnitřní členitosti a nevidět ho jako jednolité společenství. Tomu může napomoci kniha vzpomínek českého estetika Tomáše Kulky, pokrývající období od roku 1972 do roku 2000. Děj je rozdělen do sedmi částí, chronologicky mapujících klíčové historické události Izraele. Kulka přijíždí v roce 1972 do Izraele z Anglie, kam odešel z Československa v roce 1968. Kniha zachycuje války a politické zvraty – prožitek Jomkipurské války v roce 1973, kdy je Izrael nečekaně napaden Egyptem a Sýrií. Zvrat v roce 1977, kdy pravice vítězí ve volbách. Libanonskou válku v letech 1981-1982. Pozornost je věnována válce v Zálivu v roce 1991. Kniha se zabývá dynamikou izraelské společnosti, zejména rozdíly mezi Aškenázy a Sefardy. Zdůrazněn je rostoucí vliv náboženského fundamentalismu. Zobrazen je též izraelsko-palestinský konflikt a Jeruzalém. V závěru knihy je popsán krach mírových jednání v Camp Davidu a eskalace násilí v důsledku sporu o svrchovanost Jeruzaléma a Chrámové hory. Důležitou součástí knihy je popis traumatu z atentátu na Jicchaka Rabina v roce 1995. Vše je prokládáno zasvěceným rozborem místní kultury, náboženských pravidel a politických zvyklostí.

Második csillag jobbra
„Önt kedvelő táblácskáimat megpróbáltam visszavonni, sajnos nem jártam sikerrel, pedig egy úrinő semmilyen körülmények között nem tűnhet lelkesnek, csak és kizárólag ajakbiggyesztéssel nyugtázhatja egy úr igyekezetét, az ismerkedés elején legalábbis. Hogy ne legyenek indokolatlan elvárásai, elárulom, messze nem vagyok úrinő kategória, sőt.
Engem kedvelő táblácskáit hálásan köszönöm, nagyon jó vasárnap estét szerzett velük, kérem, vissza ne vonja őket. És mint láthatja, a reményt még nem adtam fel, itt vagyok. Egyébként az "úrinő" fogalom diagnosztikus értelemben teljesen bizonytalan kategória, én például a legutóbbi időkig azt a meghatározást vettem figyelembe, hogy úrinő nem fut, és ehhez képest "úriember nem tunkol.”
Hogyan találhatunk vissza önmagunkhoz, ha már túl régóta játsszuk a ránk osztott vagy épp magunkra kényszerített szerepeket?
Havas Juli új regényében bravúrosan szövi össze generációkon átívelő tablóvá egy online társkeresőn óvatosan ismerkedő, középkorú pár, egy drog- és alkoholproblémákkal küzdő fiatal ügyvéd és egy hivatása és anyasága között őrlődő neurobiológus történetét. Esendőségük ellenére – vagy éppen miatt – igazán szerethető figurái látszólag eltérő kihívások előtt állnak, ám a boldogulás érdekében mindegyiküknek szembe kell néznie a múltból magával hozott csomagjával.
A Második csillag jobbra őszinte, fájdalmasan ismerős, mégis reményteli történet hibázásról, függőségről, sorsmintákról és arról, hogy a gyógyulás és a megértés néha a legváratlanabb helyekről érkezik.
