Dějiny člověka - Kniha první
Objevte fascinující příběh Současného Člověka od počátků až po současnost. Autoři Marty Q Nowak a Martin Kváča představují Dějiny Člověka jako ucelený příběh, ve kterém se propojuje minulost se současností a kde se jednotlivé civilizace, myšlenky i objevy postupně skládají do širšího obrazu vývoje člověka, přičemž čtenáři nabízí pohled, který spojuje současná kosmická odhalení s odkazem starověkých kultur a umožňuje lépe porozumět tomu, odkud přicházíme, kam směřujeme a jakou roli v tomto vývoji sehrává každý z nás.
Flyboy in the Buttermilk
An electrifying collection of essays from legendary cultural critic and Pulitzer Prize-winner Greg Tate
'Easily one of the greatest wordsmiths … [and] the best American writer and thinker of the past forty years' Washington Post
From one of the most original, creative, and provocative writers on American culture comes a now-classic collection of essays, delving 'far and wide into Black music, into film, into the beats and rhyme of culture' (Questlove).
These pieces orbit social, pop cultural, political, and economic subjects-- from the rise of hip-hop, the art of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the music of Miles Davis, James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Bad Brains, and many others, to the crisis of the Black intellectual and the irony of the GOP recruiting Black Americans. With unrivalled flair, Tate writes in a voice that is at once angry, joyous, self-critiquing, and dazzlingly witty.
Tate teaches us 'it is not too late to say too much, to be so dissatisfied with the world as it is that we throw far too many words toward the sky, and see what the heavens throw back' (Hanif Abdurraqib).
I Can't Believe I Don't Have a Boyfriend
Get ready for more romantic tragedies! Patch basically has a boyfriend now, but get ready for him to embark on an even bigger challenge in I Can't Believe I Don't Have a Boyfriend . . . keeping him.
Here's the situation. I recently fell for a charismatic American called Peter, only to realize that his best friend Sam (emotionally intelligent, thoughtful) was the one I actually wanted. In a thrilling twist of fate I found out that they both fancy me! Although they haven’t told each other about their feelings for me (exhausting). You couldn’t make it up! And I really promise I haven’t.
So, to surmise, I have specifically three concerns going into the new year:
Am I in a relationship with Sam?
Have Sam and Peter had a conversation about me?
Is it possible to wear too much moisturiser?
Vijay Revolution
The Vijay Revolution: People Power & the Politics of Hope asks a defining question: Is Vijay’s rise merely another chapter in Tamil Nadu’s history of film stars entering politics, or the beginning of a new, revolutionary political era? This book traces the extraordinary journey of C Joseph Vijay—popularly known as Thalapathy, ‘The Commander’—from child artiste and superstar to Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. More than a biography, it is an incisive exploration of how Vijay challenged entrenched political structures, redefined public expectations, and inspired a new political order centred on dignity, welfare, opportunity, and citizen participation. At the heart of Vijay’s appeal is his ability to transcend traditional political divides and forge a direct bond with the people. The book examines how that connection transformed fandom into a powerful democratic movement and positioned Vijay as a symbol of hope and renewal. More than a reformer, populist, or visionary, Vijay has emerged as a defining force of political change. Through his model of inclusive governance, Tamil Nadu is poised to redefine the future of democratic politics across India.
Journey to the Centre of the Earth
Journey to the Centre of the Earth has been consistently praised for its style and its vision of the world. It explores the prehistory of the globe, but can also be read as a psychological quest, for the journey itself is as important as arrival or discovery. Professor Lidenbrock and his nephew Axel travel across Iceland, and then down through an extinct crater towards a sunless sea where they enter a living past and are confronted with the origins of man. A classic of nineteenth-century French literature, the novel''s distinctive combination of realism and Romanticism has marked figures as diverse as Sartre and Tournier, Mark Twain and Conan Doyle.This new translation of the complete text is faithful to the lyricism, verve, and humour of the original. 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 Fatal Eggs
What begins as a miracle of science soon turns into a nightmare...
After a plague wipes out all of Russia’s chickens, eyes fall on zoologist Periskov and his strange discovery that promises to revive their population. But quickly, the state’s attempt to control nature spirals rapidly out of control, and soon all of Moscow is under siege by creatures they hadn’t bargained for. The Fatal Eggs is Mikhail Bulgakov’s savage, darkly comic tale of progress gone wrong. Blending satire with science fiction, it captures the dangers of unchecked power – and the absurdity of believing that catastrophe can be neatly managed.

The Loft
An Austrian housewife sits in her loft intent on her drawings of birds and insects. Then one day a disturbing package arrives in the post...
The loft is her retreat, a place she can draw undisturbed, hidden away even from her own family. But the arrival of the parcel threatens her fragile equilibrium. It contains extracts from the narrator's diary, written twenty years before. They date back to a time when she was sent away by her husband to a remote cottage in a bid to 'cure' her from unexplained sudden deafness. More mysterious packages arrive. Who is sending them? And what did happened all those years ago in the forest?
Woman of Genius
Two sisters must find their way in a world designed to confine them.

The Anniversary
'On that day, ten years ago, I saw my parents for the last time. Since then I've changed phone numbers, houses, continents, I've erected an impregnable wall and put an ocean between us. They've been the best ten years of my life.'
A son is celebrating a bittersweet anniversary. It is a decade since he saw his parents: the father who ruled through petty acts of intimidation and fear, the mother who silently accepted it, fitting herself in the spaces around others' lives. As he looks back, he recalls the airless family home, unsettled only by the ringing of a telephone, or a visitor who was soon rejected. And he remembers how he became possessed by the irrepressible desire to be free, to live his own life. But can you ever escape the grip of your origins?
At once unflinchingly honest and razor sharp, The Anniversary is above all a novel of liberation which dismantles the tyranny of the family. It becomes a mirror in which we glimpse something that, even if we have not known it, affects us all.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
The classic, moving tale of a man born old, destined to die young, and live at odds with his time
To the confusion and embarrassment of his family, Benjamin Button is born an old man. As the years pass, he grows younger - moving against the current of ordinary life. While those around him age as expected, Benjamin finds himself increasingly out of step, his relationships strained by a life no one else can share. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is F. Scott Fitzgerald's quietly unsettling tale of being a misfit to one's time.
Includes the stories: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Winter Dreams and 'The Sensible Thing'

A közönséges polip életének szakaszai
„Tudom, hogy vannak kivételek – a terhes hím csikóhalak a maguk költőtáskájával, meg hasonlók –, de többnyire a nők hordozzák a jövőt. Ez akár halálos feladat is lehet. A természet bizonyos szegleteiben az utódok abból merítenek erőt, hogy élve falják fel az anyjukat. Emberi körökben rossz szemmel nézik az ilyen extrém viselkedést. Ritkán fordul elő, hogy a gyerekek megeszik az anyjukat a kisbuszban, mert megfeledkezett a sós kekszről. Gyakoribb, hogy az anya önmagát emészti fel. Amikor puha hasadra pillantok, nem szívesen gondolok arra, hogy egyszer majd nővé cseperedsz. Lefektetlek a fehér ágytakaróra, hogy megtörölgesselek a fürdetés után. Ujjam az állad alá csúsztatom, hogy mosolyra késztesselek. Bizalmat sugárzó tekintettel követsz, a szemed sötét, akár az Északi-tenger, mintha már előre megbocsátanád a sok csalódást, amit okozok majd neked. Sima vagy és rózsaszín, és úgy teszek, mintha egyek volnánk. De közben pontosan tudom, hogy nem igaz. Én újra egyedül vagyok a testemben, és te is egyedül vagy a magadéban.”
Ellenállhatatlanul szellemes történet
felnőtté válásról, anyaságról és a nők közötti barátságról
Pen egész életében úgy érezte, elvált szülei titkolnak előle valamit. Amikor az óceánon átrepülve megérkezik Skóciába, hogy elkezdje az egyetemet, valami azt súgja neki, itt az összes kérdésére választ talál. Amikor apja egy régi barátja, az immár Lord Lennox néven ismert híres író meghívja, hogy töltsön el egy hétvégét ősi birtokán a melegszívű, lenyűgöző családjával, Pen egyre közelebb kerül a rejtély megoldásához. Ráadásul életében először szerelmes lesz…
A közönséges polip életének szakaszai a felnőtté válás hepehupás ösvényén követi végig Pent, aki az út során arra is rájön, hogy a múlt titkainak megismerése vezetheti el a boldogsághoz.
Válka jsme my
Povídková kniha Válka jsme my obsahuje deset dramatických příběhů Čechů a Slováků, zasazených do širokého časového rámce od druhé světové války přes Indočínu a Vietnam až po Afghánistán. Některé jsou inspirovány skutečnými osudy, jiné jsou fiktivní, všechny jsou však ukotveny v historických reáliích, které se odehrály, nebo se odehrát mohou.
Jak říká autor knihy: „Válka změní vše. Zažere se vám pod kůži, dostane do žaludku, změní se v nekonečnou noční můru. A je jedno, zda se odehrává na druhém konci světa, za humny, nebo na vlastním dvorku. Je všudypřítomná. VÁLKA JSME MY. Vždy tomu tak bylo a bude.“

The Makeup Remover: Volume 2
The real competition is just getting started, both inside and out. . . .
After successfully passing the preliminary round of Face-Off Cinderella, wallflower Kim Yeseul
feels a bit more confident in herself, thanks to makeup artist Cheon Yuseong's ability to
transform her looks. Now, in addition to the show's cosmetic challenges, the duo must face a
new obstacle: keeping Yeseul's identity a secret on live TV.
To hide her face during broadcasts, Yeseul dons a costume of her favorite bunny character,
Toseul. But the other contestants won't let her fly under the radar so easily - especially not Ju
Heewon, who's still seething after being rejected by Yuseong. Can Yeseul make it through the
next round without being discovered - or worse, sabotaged by another contestant?
Volume 2 collects episodes 15-29 of the webcomic The Makeup Remover.
Defence of Socrates, Euthyphro, Crito
These new translations present Plato''s remarkable dramatization of the momentous events surrounding the trial of Socrates in 399 BC, on charges of irreligion and corrupting the young. The Euthyphro, Defence of Socrates, and Crito form a dramatic and thematic sequence, raising fundamental questions about the basis of moral, religious, legal, and political obligation. Plato explores these issues with a freshness and directness that have never been surpassed. In the Defence of Socrates, Plato seeks not only to clear his master''s name, but also to defend the whole Socratic way of life, and therefore philosophy itself. The result is an oratorical masterpiece. The Euthyphro, an inquiry into the nature of piety, probes the relationship between religion and morality. The Crito discusses the citizen''s obligation to the state, in the context of a life-or-death issue confronting Socrates himself - whether or not to escape from prison. David Gallop''s Introduction provides a stimulating philosophical and historical analysis of these texts, complemented by useful explanatory notes and an index of names, to make this edition invaluable to readers new to these timeless classics. 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.
