The Good Pornographer
Walace Weiss, a famous fantasy novelist struggling with drug addiction, sets himself on a twofold quest: to finish his first book in more than a decade and, like the immortal elves of his stories, to try to remember what, in his long life, he should not have forgotten. While many have come to view Walace as a bad influence on children, literature, and himself, his impact sweeps across worlds both fantastic and real, leading to his establishing a new kingdom in his neglected McMansion, Summerheim. The result is a mock-epic in rehabilitation, starring such friends and enemies as Cal, Walace’s dealer and private jester; Dragon, a porn star turned guidance counselor; Epiphany, a lunch lady and stripper in recovery; her son, Tuffy, planning everyone’s funerals at age nine; Jackal, newly sober and in touch with his emotions for the first time; and Wolf, Walace’s socially withdrawn twin brother and reluctant doppelgÄnger. Brian Bouldrey piles on the laughs and absurdity alongside dollops of humanity. With brilliant recklessness, he praises and pokes fun at genres, conventions, fandoms, and critics, offering a Deadpool-like exploration of an upside-down world filled with epic quests, epic mistakes, and epic characters.
Come Sing for the Harrowing
From British and World Fantasy award-winning writer and editor Dan Coxon, Come Sing for the Harrowing is an uncanny folk horror collection for fans of John Langan and Robert Aickman. A young man working at a tourist attraction is singled out for unholy transformation, a gang of burglars are ambushed with something unworldly when they attempt to rob a local farm, and a daughter seeks revenge on her abusive father after his death. Invoking the sense of natural surreal found in Midsommar, these stories are always a little to the left of what’s expected. Weaving macabre contingencies into realities, Dan Coxon crafts unsettling and eerie worlds through hauntingly literary prose. Including a featured story from Ellen Datlow’s “Best of Horror” round-up and a foreword from Brian Evenson, Come Sing for the Harrowing will haunt your dreams and gnaw at you during the daylight.

Asistovaná reprodukce - před podpisem informovaného souhlasu
Rozhodnutí, které mění život – průvodce světem asistované reprodukce pro odborníky i budoucí rodiče
V současné době, kdy se asistovaná reprodukce stává pro mnohé jedinou cestou k rodičovství, nabývá pojem „informovaný souhlas“ nového významu. Nejde již jen o podpis právního dokumentu, ale především o hluboké porozumění všem lékařským, psychologickým a etickým souvislostem.
Tato unikátní monografie pod vedením doc. Hany Konečné nabízí komplexní a srozumitelný vhled do problematiky, která dalece přesahuje hranice čisté medicíny. Autorský kolektiv – složený ze špiček české reprodukční medicíny, psychologů, sociologů, genealogů i právníků se zkušenostmi z Evropského soudu pro lidská práva – se věnuje tématům, která jsou v běžné praxi často opomíjena:
Lékařské a psychosociální výzvy: Jak se vyrovnat s nároky léčby, jakou roli hraje genetická diagnostika a co přináší fenomény jako social freezing či onkofertilita. Etika a právo: Objektivní pohled na dárcovství gamet, náhradní mateřství, transplantace dělohy či formy náhradní rodinné péče bez zbytečné ideologie. Budoucí identita dětí: Jak pomoci dětem počatým díky asistované reprodukci s tvorbou jejich vlastní identity a jak celý systém mění nástup komerčních DNA testů. Pro koho je kniha určena?
Pro odborníky: Zdravotníkům, psychologům, sociálním pracovníkům a pedagogům poslouží jako nepostradatelný manuál pro poskytování kvalitního poradenství a pochopení širších souvislostí. Pro zájemce o léčbu: Těm, kteří o asistované reprodukci či náhradním rodičovství uvažují a chtějí se rozhodovat zodpovědně, na základě faktů a s ohledem na budoucnost své rodiny. Kniha nehodnotí ani nepolemizuje – popisuje, vysvětluje a pomáhá orientovat se v jednom z nejcitlivějších témat moderní medicíny.

How University Boards Work
A completely updated guide to helping university trustees become effective stewards of their institutions. Boards of trustees hold immense responsibility in guiding the future of colleges and universities. They hire and fire presidents, approve and monitor strategy, oversee finances, and safeguard institutional missions and autonomy. Yet many trustees enter this role with limited understanding of the distinct culture, structure, and values of the academic institutions they are selected to govern. In this second edition of How University Boards Work, former university president Robert A. Scott offers a practical and candid guide for navigating the complexities of academic board service. Originally published in 2018 and widely adopted in board development programs, this updated edition incorporates insights gleaned from years of training sessions, executive coaching, and a radically altered higher education landscape. Elements unique to this edition include:• A new preface addressing the contemporary pressures affecting higher education governance, including political interference, enrollment challenges, changing public attitudes, tuition pricing, overall costs and ROI, and post-pandemic adaptations. • Expanded guidance on key topics such as consent agendas, indicators of institutional vitality and vulnerability, risk assessment, and succession planning. • Updated index entries and terminology reflecting evolving governance concerns such as cybersecurity and free speech. With illustrative examples of effective and problematic board behavior and actionable suggestions for trustee development, How University Boards Work remains the definitive primer for trustees of both public and private institutions.

All the Cameras in My Room
Razor-sharp short stories from the greatest contemporary comics stylist. Michael DeForge has been dissecting the comics visual language for more than a decade and continues his creative winning streak with his tenth book for D&Q and second collection of short stories, All the Cameras in My Room. The prolific cartoonist s hilarious and horny approach to comics fiction never disappoints. In 'Figure Skating,' a star athlete s impossible feats captivate the world, turning a simple skater s rotation into a catalyst for national paralysis. While in 'Holiday Special,' a narrator tells us about his favorite Christian holiday special that bears an uncanny resemblance to a certain bald-headed-boy-and-his-dog classic. No matter the conceit, characters in All the Cameras in My Room stretch and flatten and spiral around each other and burrow deep into the folds of a reader s brain. Deforge s stories break down how we consume pop culture, interrogate our relationship to star power and recontextualize our nostalgia into a shared mythology, cementing his place as the most consistent and beguiling cartoonist working today.

Hike Strong
Hiking and backpacking are unique “sports” which require a unique blend of strength, conditioning, and athleticism unlike most recreational physical endeavors. People need strength to climb steep ascents, conditioning to endure long mile days, and athleticism to handle their own body on rugged terrain. Now add on the harsh, rugged conditions of the mountains and it can be a recipe for struggle – but it doesn’t have to be. Hike Strong: The Complete Guide to Building Trail Strength, Endurance, and Confidence for Hiking and Backpacking will help alleviate the “fitness anxiety” that some can experience when thinking about tackling the mountain they’ve always wanted to climb. Written by a licensed hiking guide and professional strength and conditioning coach, this book will be a transformative fitness guide designed for outdoor enthusiasts who want to confidently enjoy the trail. This guide will offer a practical, step-by-step approach to preparing readers both physically and mentally so they can arrive at any trailhead fully confident in their abilities. The tools and programming they’ll learn will help them feel strong and perform well from trailhead to summit and back again. In Hike Strong, readers will find training programs that combine strength-building, conditioning, balance, and mobility tailored specifically to the demands of hiking and backpacking. They’ll also learn the “why” and “how” behind these programs. Conventional wisdom has told people to “just go running” to get in shape for hiking. This guide takes a vastly different approach and instead teaches that strength training is the way to properly prepare oneself for the demands of the backcountry. The author’s training modalities have been proven over and over by the successful results his clients have experienced in the mountains following his training program. This book will inspire readers to be excited to embark on new adventures, knowing they have the tools to make every step of the adventure a rewarding one.

Rome's Patron
The story of Maecenas and his role in the evolution and continuing legacy of ancient Roman poetry and cultureAn unelected statesman with exceptional powers, a patron of the arts and a luxury-loving friend of the emperor Augustus: Maecenas was one of the most prominent and distinctive personalities of ancient Rome. Yet the traces he left behind are unreliable and tantalizingly scarce. Rather than attempting a conventional biography, Emily Gowers shows in Rome’s Patron that it is possible to tell a different story, one about Maecenas’s influence, his changing identities and the many narratives attached to him across two millennia. Rome’s Patron explores Maecenas’s appearances in the central works of Augustan poetry written in his name—Virgil’s Georgics, Horace’s Odes and Propertius’s elegies—and in later works of Latin literature that reassess his influence. For the Roman poets he supported, Maecenas was a mascot of cultural flexibility and innovation, a pioneer of gender fluidity and a bearer of imperial demands who could be exposed as a secret sympathizer with their own values. For those excluded from his circle, he represented either favouritism and indulgence or the lost ideal of a patron in perfect collaboration with the authors he championed. As Gowers shows, Maecenas had and continues to have a unique cachet—in the fantasies that still surround the gardens, buildings and objects so tenuously associated with him; in literature, from Ariosto and Ben Johnson to Phillis Wheatley and W. B. Yeats; and in philanthropy, where his name has been surprisingly adaptable to more democratic forms of patronage.
Waiting for You at the End of the Runway
Chihaya, who was famous as a child prodigy, felt that his talent as an actor had reached its limits. After ten years of acting, he decided to retire, and when he told his father, who is also the president of the agency, he was suddenly appointed as the manager of his childhood friend and model, Shion. However, when they met again for the first time in three years, Shion treated him like a nuisance. Chihaya couldn't help but say, 'I'll prove that I can do it too,' and from that day on, he began to work hard at the unfamiliar managerial job. As he watched Shion's brilliance as she worked as a top model, he began to remember the one time in the past when he and Shion tried to have sex. The memory of 'that time,' when they were both still young and desperate, and infatuated with the person in front of them, came back to Chihaya, and Chihaya's feelings for Shion shifted. Shion noticed Chihaya's heated gaze and reached out to Chihaya's body, saying, 'I won't let you get away next time.'
