Separation of Church and Hate
A deeply irreverent and Biblically-correct takedown of the far-right and their co-opting of religion from John Fugelsang, one of today's top political and comedic minds. For more than two centuries, the United States Constitution has given us the right to a society where church and state exist independently. But Christianity has been hijacked by far-right groups and politicians who seek to impose their narrow views on government, often to justify oppressive and unequal policies. The extremists who weaponize the Bible for earthly power aren't actually on the side of Jesus-and historically they never have been. How do we fight back against those acting-literally-in bad fait? omedian and broadcaster John Fugelsang finally offers the answers. In this informative, perspective-shifting book, Fugelsang takes readers through common fundamentalist arguments on abortion, immigration, LGBTQ rights, and more-exposing their hypocrisy and inaccuracy through scripture, common sense, and deeply inappropriate humor. It offers practical tips on how to debate your loved one, coworker, or neighbor on the issues that divide us using that Bible they claim to follow. But Fugelsang's message is about more than just taking down hypocrites. It's about fighting for the love, mercy, and service that are supposed to make up the heart of Christianity. Told with Fugelsang's trademark blend of radical honesty, comedy, and deep political and religious knowledge, Separation of Church and Hate is the book every American needs today. It's a rallying cry for compassion and clarity for anyone of any faith who's sick of religion being used as a cloaking device for hate.

The Beautiful Death of Ozzy Osbourne
Pioneering metal writer Keith Kahn-Harris presents a moving, visionary exploration of Ozzy Osbourne, and of metal music and culture: the potent legacy Ozzy left us.
What is a ‘good death’?
How about this: After years of terrible health, you gather friends and admirers for one last, glorious party. A couple of weeks later, you slip away, surrounded by your loving family. Then, the world comes to mourn. That is how Birmingham’s favourite son, Ozzy Osbourne, died.
By his death in June 2025 – at an age few believed he’d reach – Ozzy was much-loved, far beyond the metal world. Once a feared, demonic figure to some (and a joke to others), his Back to the Beginning farewell concert at Villa Park raised millions for charity.
In concise, arresting chapters moving from Death to Life via Art, Politics, Sex, Bodies, Voice, Family, Myth and more, Kahn-Harris explores how Ozzy – of all people! – attracted such generosity of spirit. The answer, he finds, is deeply embedded within the story and culture of metal – and has lessons for us all.
The Wayfinder
When a mysterious visitor lands on her island, a place so remote its inhabitants have forgotten the word for stranger, young Korero finds herself thrust into a terrifying and magical world. Her people are desperate and on the brink of starvation, and the wayward stranger offers them an impossible choice: they can remain in the only home they’ve ever known and await the uncertainty to come, or Korero can join him and venture into unfamiliar waters, guided by only the night sky and his assurance of a bountiful future in the Kingdom of Tonga.
What Korero and her people don’t know is that the promised refuge is no utopia - Tonga is an empire at war and on the verge of collapse, a place where brains are regularly liberated from skulls and souls may become trapped in coconuts.
The perils of Tonga are compounded by a royal feud: loyalties are shifting, graves are being opened, and everyone lives in fear of a jellyfish tattoo. Here, survival can rest on a perfectly performed dance or the acceptance of a cup of kava. Together, the stranger and Korero embark upon an epic voyage - one that will deliver them either to salvation or to the depths of the Pacific.
Evoking the grandeur of Wolf Hall and the splendor of Shogun, Pulitzer Prizewinning novelist Adam Johnson conjures oral history, restores the natural world, and locates what’s best in humanity. Toweringly ambitious and breathtakingly immersive, The Wayfinder is an instant, timeless classic.
Drayton and Mackenzie
For the first time since university, James and Roland's paths through life - one drawn in straight lines, the other squiggled and meandering - began to cross…
James Drayton has always found things too easy. By the time he leaves university, he's still searching for a challenge worthy of his ambitions, one that will fulfil the destiny he thinks awaits him.
Roland Mackenzie, on the other hand, is an impulsive risk-taker, a charismatic drifter with boundless enthusiasm but a knack for derailing his own attempts to get started in life.
When a chance encounter in a pub reunites these old acquaintances, it sets them on an unpredictable course through the upheavals of the 21st century, and triggers an unlikely alliance. Against the backdrop of the financial crash and its aftermath, they strive to create something that outlasts them, something that will matter.
Drayton and Mackenzie is a stunningly ambitious, immediately engaging and ultimately deeply moving novel both about trying to make your mark on the world, and about how a friendship might be the most important thing in life.

Ultrazvukové vyšetření a léčba dětského kyčelního kloubu
Poslední monografie o ultrazvukovém vyšetření dětského kyčelního kloubu vyšla před téměř třiceti lety. Od té doby se sjednotil princip vyšetření a prevence vývojové dysplazie kyčelního kloubu, došlo k výraznému snížení rtg expozice u dětí a rovněž díky včasné diagnostice ke značnému snížení nutných operačních zákroků.
Léčba a prevence vrozených a vývojových vad kyčelního kloubu u dětí má v naší zemi dlouholetou tradici. Systém současných kontrol, tzv. systém trojího síta, je jedním z nejpropracovanějších metodických pokynů a stává se vzorem pro mnoho dalších zemí. Došlo rovněž k úpravě věstníku — metodického pokynu vyšetřování dětských kyčelních kloubů – která v sobě zahrnuje nutnost ultrazvukového vyšetření kyčlí a podstatně omezuje dosud používaný systém rtg kontrol.
Snahou autorů je zavést jednotný systém vyšetření, klasifikace a návazné léčby vývojové dysplazie kyčelního kloubu (VDK). V nové monografii je uvedena také taktika léčby VDK dle celosvětových trendů a kapitola o vyšetření výpotku kyčelního kloubu. Publikace umožní správnou orientaci při vyšetření ultrazvukovou technikou a přispěje k časné detekci a adekvátní léčbě vývojových a vrozených vad kyčelního kloubu.
Publikace by měla sjednotit prevenci a detekci VDK – vyšetření u pediatra, ortopeda i na sonografických a rtg pracovištích.
