Collapse


The first volume of a ground-breaking and truly global trilogy on the Second World War, from an exciting, prize-winning academic. Between 1931 and 1949, a series of crises threatened world order and the very functioning of states, as well as destroying or changing millions of ordinary people's lives. At the heart of these upheavals was an all-encompassing war that was a watershed moment in modern history. Collapse tells the story of the first part of this "Greater Second World War," from 1931-1941, weaving multiple international trends, theatres of war and home fronts into a single, compelling global narrative. It shows from all sides what influenced the key campaigns, and the great shifts in power and society that accompanied them. Combining brand new sources in 14 languages from over 50 archives around the world, and a highly original approach that explores the personal alongside the political, Professor Jonathan Fennell shows in vivid colour how a world that many considered civilised collapsed into barbarity. By using immersive storytelling and a cast of characters from well-known political and literary figures to everyday citizens around the world - including not only "bands of brothers" but also less well-known "sisters in arms" and "war-woven lovers" - he explores what it really meant to live through this violent upheaval. This is a landmark work from an outstanding historian that transforms our understanding of this monumental conflict.

Clía összetört szívvel kidolgozza a tökéletes tervet: követi Domhnallt Caisleán Cósta katonai akadémiájára. Persze a kastély hírhedten kegyetlen hely. De hát mennyire lehet nehéz a párbajozás? Ronan harcosként megfogadta: soha nem engedi, hogy bármi elterelje a figyelmét. Nem akar foglalkozni Clíával. De a lány elszántsága, hogy bebizonyítsa, mire képes, ismerős számára. Nincs abban semmi rossz, ha segít neki a kardforgatás elsajátításában. Még úgy sem, hogy a szíve hevesebben ver a lány közelében. Még úgy sem, hogy Domhnall a legjobb barátja. Mert ahogy mondani szokás: a szerelem egy csatatér – és sajnos számukra most egy valódi háború is a láthatáron dereng. Egy harc, amely végső próbatétel elé állítja a képességeiket… és a szívüket. TikTok-szenzáció! #BookTok, #OlvassEgyJót Légy tanúja, hogy válik legendává egy összetört szív! Szereted a fantáziadús, érzéki, tartalmas könyveket? Vidd haza nyugodtan, tetszeni fog!

Co o knize říkají další hlasy? „Lidé říkají, že moji táta s mámou jsou skvělí v učednictví. Myslím, že na tom mám aspoň poloviční zásluhu, protože si to na mně doma trénovali. Jedním z důvodů, proč jsem já sama vedoucí, je to, že HOGC je církev mladých, která dává mládeži pravomoci. Zodpovědnost jsem měla už v 11 letech. A nejde jen o mě, ale o celou generaci mladých lidí, jako jsem já. Všichni chceme žít pro Boha a stát se v církvi zaměstnanci na plný úvazek nebo pastory!“ — RINNAH (16 let), dcera Howa a Lie, vedoucí 130 mladých lidí a instruktorka práce se sociálními sítěmi „Vyrůstal jsem ve Švýcarsku. Do Singapuru jsem se přestěhoval a k HOGC se připojil ve 25 letech. V té době byli téměř všichni vedoucí v církvi teenageři. Přišel jsem jako starší, měl jsem vystudovanou biblickou školu, byl jsem podnikatel a ‚běloch‘ v asijské církvi. Myslel jsem si, že mě hned obsadí do vedoucí role nebo mě postaví na pódium. Místo toho jsem ale dalších 4 až 5 let čistil záchody.“ — CHRISTIAN HONEGGER, ředitel pro globální vztahy; HOGC sdílí pohled člověka ze Západu na asijskou církev „Jeden z nejsilnějších momentů mého učednictví se odehrál v době, kdy pastorka Lia bojovala s rakovinou. Vlastně se to stalo přímo uprostřed její chemoterapie! Koho by napadlo, že i chemoterapie se dá využít k učednictví?“ — PASTOR CHARLESTON, člen exekutivního vedení HOGC

Gert G. von Harling sa na svet díva očami vášnivého milovníka prírody a priateľa zvierat a až v druhom pláne cez zorné pole svojho puškohľadu. Podstatou lovu tak preňho nie je streľba, ale skôr blízky kontakt s divokou prírodou. Vášeň pre poľovačku dostal takpovediac do vienka, keďže jeho otec i starý otec boli nadšenými poľovníkmi. Odovzdal ju aj svojim dvom deťom. O poľovníctve aj rád píše, na konte má vyše 40 kníh, pričom je oceňovaným a aj najčítanejším autorom poľovníckej literatúry v nemecky hovoriacich krajinách. V tejto publikácii približuje úchvatné zážitky z revírov v okolí svojho bydliska v Dolnom Sasku i v blízkom zahraničí. Nepíše len o trofejach, no často sa zamýšľa nad budúcnosťou poľovníctva. Jeho slová umocňujú úchvatné fotografie Franka Ecklera, ktorý vie citlivo zachytiť nielen krásu krajiny, ale aj nezvyčajné a opomínané výjavy zo života divej zveri. Inšpiráciu nachádza neustále, bez ohľadu na dennú či ročnú dobu alebo počasie. Čitatelia vďaka nemu nazrú do rodinného života diviačic či sŕn. Budú tiež svedkami súbojov danielov a jeleňov alebo naopak ostražitosti zajacov či jarabíc.

How Not To Be Stupid


Stop living on autopilot and take back control of your own mind. We are surrounded by stupidity. Yet we rarely ask what it really means or where it comes from. If we can identify that someone else is stupid, there's a good chance that we are not. That's enough for most people. In this provocative exploration of human behaviour, philosopher and bestselling author Igor Sibaldi argues that stupidity is not a lack of intelligence, but an inability to look beyond social norms and think for ourselves. Through twelve core areas of the human experience - including communication, wealth and overcoming fears - he uses wit and irony to help you arm yourself against stupidity, challenge your biases and turn obstacles into opportunities. Examining some of the most influential ideas from psychology, theology and history in engaging, bitesize chapters, this is an essential toolkit for navigating the chaos of modern life.

Maybe it's time for perfection to fall out of style . . . Los Angeles, 1964. For two decades, Del and Dinah Newman and their sons, Guy and Shep, have ruled television as America's Favourite Family. Millions of viewers tune in every week to watch them play flawless, black-and-white versions of themselves.

Steady, stable Guy is hiding the truth about his love life, and rock 'n' roll idol Shep may finally be in real trouble. When Del is in a mysterious car accident, Dinah decides to take matters into her own hands. She hires Juliet Dunne, an outspoken young reporter, to help her write the final episode.

For Louder Days


The essential guide to establishing an effective opposition movement in the age of Trump, from the leading activist and organizer“I consider [Marom] one of the most generous and important thinkers for the activist left, for anyone who cares about where we are and how to get to where we should be.” —Rebecca SolnitThere is no way to stop the descent into authoritarianism, nor win a world in which all people can thrive, without massive numbers of people organizing for social, political, and economic change. Yet experienced movement leader Yotam Marom delivers a hard truth: progressive and left movements too often get in their own way. They can be ambivalent about power, choosing insularity and purity over winning. This amounts to what Marom calls the “politics of powerlessness,” which has kept movements small, weak, and defeated. In For Louder Days: Reaching Beyond a Politics of Powerlessness, Marom offers a brilliant, lyrical clarion cry for a more honest, more strategic, more loving approach to progressive activism and movement building. Grounded in decades of experience in movements, from leading at Occupy Wall Street and other movement moments to supporting some of the most important climate, racial justice, and democracy movements of our time, Marom dives deep into the challenges that hold movements back, and offers stories, tools, and paths toward real power and enduring change. Published at the most perilous time in our modern political history, For Louder Days comes not a moment too soon. It is essential reading for committed activists as well as the wider public concerned about the state of our world and hoping to change it for the better.
