All My Love
Petra and Johannes seem made for one another. A lawyer and a doctor. Well brought up, ambitious. Their friends Julia and Axel are different - from them, and from each other. Julia fights for her convictions. Axel manoeuvres his way to political power. Desire moves like an undertow between them all, dangerous and destabilising. Inconvenient truths are buried, but can only stay that way for so long. Meanwhile, the country around them changes. Laws tighten. Freedoms are curtailed. People begin to disappear. The personal and the political collide. It is easier, at first, to look away than to let the facts in. Until they arrive at the door. 'What a writer Agnes Lidbeck is - bold, blisteringly intelligent, deliciously playful.'- Katie Kitamura, author of Audition and Intimacies
Tilton and Grace Entokah
Tilton and Grace Entokah: An Osage Story offers an episodic history of the Osage Nation of Oklahoma as told through the life narratives of Anthony Lookout's great-grandparents Tilton and Grace Entokah. Anthony Lookout grew up hearing the stories of his relatives, including those of his great-grandfather Fred Lookout, who served as the principal chief of the Osage Nation in the early twentieth century. Anthony Lookout's father, Morris Lookout, methodically recorded the oral traditions and tribal stories of Osage elders and relatives on reel-to-reel tapes from 1965 to 1971. The recordings preserved generations of Osage history, religious practices, and cultural traditions reaching back to the mid-nineteenth century. To write this story of his family and Osage history, Anthony Lookout did additional research in archival collections, newspapers, and magazines and interviewed elders. From the perspective of a participant rather than an observer, Lookout tells the tribal history of the Osage Nation's removal from their Kansas homelands in 1865 and relocation to Oklahoma's Indian Territory from 1872 to the early 1940s. The heart of the story revolves around Lookout's great-grandmother Grace Entokah, who grew up as a traditional Osage woman, and adapted through traumatic and uncertain times, staying true to her Osage culture. She went from riding horses to riding in automobiles, eventually meeting the president of the United States. Lookout covers the family history of the Entokahs, the Allotment Act of 1906, Oklahoma statehood, the depredations of mining and oil companies on Osage lands, the establishment of tribal government and courts, Principal Chief Fred Lookout's journeys to Washington, DC, to meet top government leaders, as well as tribal stories of the infamous 1920s Osage murders and other key episodes in Osage history. Tilton and Grace Entokah is not only the story of the Entokahs but also an Osage history written from the collective memory of those on the Osage reservation.

Průvodce temného pána pro randění
Temný pán Kazimir unesl Arabellu v očekávání poslušné nevěsty, ale pro ni je únos jen dalším nudným úterým. Pokud si ho už musí vzít, bude to podle jejích podmínek a z jeho „temného“ svádění si s gustem udělá veřejnou frašku. Připravte se na neuvěřitelně vtipnou temnou romantasy, kde je sarkasmus nebezpečnější než meč a randění je ten největší válečný zločin!
Když temný pán Kazimir Blackrose unese lady Arabellu, aby si vynutil sňatek, očekává poslušnou, vyděšenou nevěstu. Místo toho skončí s nožem na krku a ženou, která má vlastní podmínky.
Celý život se k ní chovali jako k majetku. Únos jedním z nejnebezpečnějších padouchů říše? Jen další úterý. Pokud má být provdaná za nesnesitelného (a nesnesitelně přitažlivého) temného pána, bude to podle jejích pravidel.
Jenže když se jeho pečlivě promyšlené plány na ovládnutí říše začnou hroutit, čeká Kazimira výzva, na kterou ho nepřipravila žádná válka.
Musí začít randit s vlastní ženou. A opakovaně selhává.
Mezi jiskrnou magií, ostrými výměnami názorů a elektrizující přitažlivostí hrozí nebezpečí, že se do sebe opravdu zamilují.

Míg a halál nem választ
"Talán szellem vagyok, nem is kellene élnem, járkálok itt, mint egy kísértet, és halálra rémisztem a szerencsétlen orvosokat."
Tíz évvel ezelőtt legyőzte a rákot, és megírta küzdelme harcias, diadalmas naplóját. De mi történik akkor, ha a háború nem ér véget az első csata megnyerése után? Mi marad a hősmítoszból, ha a szörnyeteg kilenc év tünetmentesség után újra felébred?
Szentesi Éva immáron a szabadságharcos és megmondóember ünnepelt, ám valójában fojtogató páncélját levetve ír kiújult betegségéről. Újraértelmezi önmagát és mindazt, ami vele történt -nem csupán az elmúlt évtizedben, hanem egész élete során.

A Míg a halál nem választ a leszámolások könyve. Leszámolás az illúziókkal, a toxikus nyilvánossággal és a rák legyőzhetőségének mítoszával. De egyben a megérkezés könyve is: egy letaglózó, egyszerre líraian gyönyörű és dokumentarista pontosságú vallomás arról, hogyan köthetünk békét a törékenységében is makacs sorssal és tökéletlen, sebezhető önmagunkkal.
Ako premýšľať o umelej inteligencii
Richard Susskind rozpráva fascinujúci príbeh umelej inteligencie a prináša stručného sprievodcu, ktorý nás núti prehodnotiť všetko, čo sme si o nej doteraz mysleli. Vyvádza umelú inteligenciu z prísne strážených počítačových laboratórií technologických gigantov priamo do nášho každodenného života. Od príchodu systému ChatGPT zaplavila verejnosť vlna záujmu o AI, no zároveň zavládol zmätok. Čo vlastne umelá inteligencia dokáže a kde sú jej limity? Čo nás ešte len čaká? Je pre ľudstvo spásou alebo najväčšou existenčnou hrozbou? Susskind sa nevyhýba ani pálčivým otázkam o regulácii a morálnych hraniciach, ktoré by sme pri jej používaní mali jasne stanoviť.
V knihe Ako premýšľať o umelej inteligencii autor čerpá zo svojich bohatých skúseností, keďže tejto téme sa venuje už od začiatku 80. rokov. Vyváženie prínosov a hrozieb AI považuje za kľúčovú výzvu našej doby. Jeho pohľady sú často nekonvenčné – ChatGPT a generatívnu AI vníma len ako najnovšiu kapitolu v dlhom príbehu a tvrdí, že sme stále iba na začiatku skutočného technického rozmachu. Naznačuje, že technológie, ktoré ešte neboli ani vynájdené, ovplyvnia naše životy v 30. rokoch tohto storočia oveľa zásadnejšie než čokoľvek, čo máme k dispozícii dnes. Otvára tým fascinujúcu diskusiu o možnostiach vedomých strojov, o veľkolepých virtuálnych svetoch a o vplyve AI na samotnú evolúciu človeka.
