British Airways in 100 Objects
British Airways has an almost unique history. Spanning over a century from the first flight of Aircraft Transport and Travel Ltd from London to Paris in 1919 to the modern fuel-efficient aircraft of its current fleet, British Airways has proudly connected Britain to the World and the World to Britain. Over that journey through the rapidly evolving early years of pioneering aviation, taking days to cross continents with biplanes and seaplanes, through the post-war piston-engine luxury, the iconic jet age of the fabulous Boeing 707 and 747, the supersonic marvel of Concorde into the modern era of travel, British Airways has seen many historic events and carried literally billions of customers. Along the way that journey has generated vast amounts of treasured items, many of which are now displayed or stored at British Airways headquarters near Heathrow in its truly incredible museum, the Speedbird Centre. Much of the archive has true national importance and is kept as part of the nation’s heritage. From simple in-flight mementos to the Olympic torch, the items featured in this book represent just a flavour of that collection and bring decades of flight to life.
Marvels: The Novelization
For the first time, a novelization of Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross' bestselling and now classic miniseries from 1994-Marvels, offering an thrilling all-new interpretation of one of the most famous stories in Marvel Comics history.
Welcome to New York. Here, burning figures roam the streets, men in brightly colored costumes scale the glass and concrete walls, creatures from space threaten to devour our world . . . and everyone else is going about their lives.
This is the Marvel Universe, where the ordinary and fantastic interact daily. This is the world of Marvels-one of the most important and bestselling stories in Marvel Comics history, which Stan Lee described in his introduction to the first collected edition as "innovative, brilliantly conceived, and skillfully executed."
Over 30 years later, Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross' groundbreaking comic book series Marvels gets a long-awaited novelization by Steve Darnall, author of Uncle Sam and Ross's writing partner on the original proposal.
Marvels was a landmark series when it was first published-peeling back the curtain on Marvel's history. It's a story told from the perspective of an everyman character-news photographer Phil Sheldon-who chronicles a world full of costumed superhumans, providing an on-the-ground view of events in the Marvel Universe as they unfold. Darnall's prose perfectly captures the magic of Busiek and Ross' original story, offering insights and background previously untold in the comic book.
Tying the story together in a stunning package is an all-new painted cover, four all-new color illustrations, and four all-new black-and-white illustrations by Alex Ross, as well as an all-new afterword by Ross.
Pioneer Summer - The Pioneer Series 1
This star-crossed gay romance is a #1 bestselling TikTok sensation that took readers by storm, made international news, and catalyzed one of Russia's largest-ever crackdowns on LGBTQ representation.
Cowritten by a Ukrainian-Russian duo, Pioneer Summer reached such heights of popularity that Putin stepped in to ban it. Now this swoony romance will transport American readers to another place and time and introduce them to one of the most memorable relationships of their lives.
The year is 1986, and Yurka Konev, 16, has been sent off for another summer at Pioneer Camp. Impulsive, forthright, and unfairly branded as a troublemaker, he anticipates the weeks ahead of him with boredom and dread.
But when he's pushed into working on the camp's theater production, he meets serious, thoughtful troop leader Volodya. Yurka finds himself drawn to the slightly older boy, and, surprisingly, Volodya seems to like him, too. The two boys grow closer and closer, and though both fear the consequences of their illegal attraction, its gravity pulls them together.
Now, 20 years later, Yury returns to the abandoned camp to reminisce on the relationship that changed his life forever-and discovers that not all history is destined to remain in the past.

It is the late 1980s, the closing years of Thatcher’s Britain. For the Trainspotting crew, a new era is about to begin – a time for hope, for love, for raving.

The Sudans
The Sudans tells the story of the African Union's efforts to make peace in the Sudans during the years 2009 to 2013. It details the work of the AU High-Level Panel, led by former South African President Thabo Mbeki, to resolve the war in Darfur, promote democracy in Sudan, steer the independence of South Sudan, and make peace between Sudan and South Sudan. It was Africa's most ambitious peace-making effort. Meticulously documenting every step, Alex de Waal and Willow Berridge show how Mbeki's team handled disputes over borders, resources, and citizenship, and channeled fractious international actors into a consensus. They document the panel's consultative, people-focused strategy in Darfur and its patient, unflagging mediation between north and south. Ultimately, however, the leaders of Sudan and South Sudan squandered opportunities to establish two viable, mutually supporting states, setting both countries on the path toward calamity. Authoritative and clear-eyed, The Sudans pulls back the curtain on this pioneering effort, demonstrating the potential of African-led peacemaking.
Settling Debt
Settling Debt overturns the familiar tale of early antislavery as a pure moral triumph by revealing its uneasy ties to colonial ambition and economic anxiety. Cameron Seglias shows how, from the late seventeenth century through the American Revolution, settlers and religious writers condemned slavery as a threat to their own prosperity and salvation. Debt, understood both as money owed and moral obligation, anchored their vision of freedom and shaped how they justified seizing Indigenous lands while denouncing racial bondage. Drawing from neglected books, pamphlets, poems, and dramatic protests, like the radical acts of Benjamin Lay, Seglias weaves literary close readings with sharp historical insights to expose how freedom and dispossession were two sides of the same coin. At once readable and provocative, Settling Debt compels us to see how the language of moral debt masked the building of a colonial order rooted in inequality. In revisiting this past, Seglias offers a timely reminder: The debts of America's founding have yet to be settled.

Waylon University 4: To ti slibuju
Dillon McQueen: Kdy tě zase uvidím?
Serena Jensenová: Ehm, kdo jsi?
Na Waylonu se traduje jistá legenda: první dívka, kterou políbíš v prvním ročníku u táboráku, je ta, na kterou nikdy nezapomeneš. Zadře se ti pod kůži a probudí v tobě takovou vášeň, že bys pro ni udělal cokoli na světě.
Možná ji dokonce požádáš o ruku.
Ale… důležité je správné načasování. Ten polibek se může příšerně zvrtnout. Ta dívka může utéct. A Serena opravdu utekla.
Dillon je hvězdný quarterback Waylonu, který potřebuje dostudovat a dostat se do NFL. Co ale rozhodně nepotřebuje, je potkat dívku, kterou políbil u táboráku v prvním ročníku. Copak nestačí, že ho pronásleduje ve snech?
Osud se mu vysměje do očí, když na ni nečekaně narazí v obchodě. Obklopen svým dívčím harémem si ležérně nahází do košíku všechna balení sušenek Oreo, které ona miluje. Ona mu to oplatí a vykoupí poslední balení jeho oblíbeného piva.
Ta legenda je určitě prokletím. Ona není jeho typ, a navíc ho určitě nenávidí. Ba co hůř – jak je možné, že si na něj nevzpomíná, když mu před třemi lety vypálila do srdce cejch?
Proč o ni přes to všechno pořád usiluje?
Získá nový hvězdný quarterback vysněnou dívku, nebo udělá největší chybu svého života?

The Triumph of Christianity Redescribed
In The Triumph of Christianity Redescribed, Éric Rebillard argues that the appearance of Christian signs and practices in the Roman Empire has long been misunderstood. Rather than marking a rapid wave of conversions or the triumph of belief, the spread of Christian signs reflected a more complex and fluid religious landscape. Rebillard offers a striking new account of how Christianity took hold, not through adherence to doctrine or formal membership in a church, but through a gradual diffusion of signs and practices. Drawing on cognitive science, anthropology, and theories of religious mobility, he shows how individuals across the ancient Mediterranean experimented with religious symbols: adopting some, abandoning others, and often blending them without concern for consistency. Rebillard maps out a world where religious affiliation was provisional, situational, and rarely exclusive. The Triumph of Christianity Redescribed challenges the idea that Christianity's rise was a straightforward story of growth, mission, or hegemony. By replacing a triumphalist narrative with one attuned to ambiguity, resilience, and the everyday realities of religious life in late antiquity, Rebillard offers scholars and general readers alike a richer, more accurate account of how Christianity spread—and what that spread actually meant.

Ealing: A Potted History
For much of its history Ealing was a rural village in Middlesex, outside London. Improved communications encouraged first its development as a market garden for the capital and later as an attractive suburb in West London, nicknamed ‘Queen of the Suburbs’. In this book, local historians Dr Jonathan Oates and Paul Howard Lang look back over the centuries to uncover the fascinating history of the district. The new public buildings, churches and chapels played an important role alongside large-scale housing developments from the nineteenth century onwards. Leisure was important in Ealing too. The inhabitants of Ealing included many famous names recorded by blue plaques today but all benefitted from the growth of shopping centres in the area. Not only was it well-known for its open spaces but is also the home of film studios. The stories of Ealing’s places and people bring the history to life, together with illustrations to show where reminders of the area’s past can still be found.Illustrated throughout, this accessible historical portrait of the transformation that Ealing has undergone through the ages will be of great interest to residents, visitors and all those with links to the district.

Anglický kouzelník, lhář, podvodník... a hlavní hrdina řady, ve které se městská fantasy střetává s hororem. John Constantine (známý i díky filmu s Keanu Reevesem v hlavní roli), chlápek v baloňáku, s cigaretou v puse, vždy připravený urážet a podrážet své okolí, se nám tady představí v příbězích od těch nejslavnějších komiksových tvůrců!

Školstvo a prevencia
Zamestnanec má voči zamestnávateľovi povinnosti, ktoré sa zaviazal plniť pri podpise pracovnej zmluvy, jednou z povinnosti je aj dodržiavanie pracovnej disciplíny. Ak zamestnanec pracovnú disciplínu nedodrží, môžu nasledovať sankcie. Aké sankcie môže zamestnávateľ za porušenie pracovnej disciplíny uplatniť? Intenzita porušenia pracovnej disciplíny je jedným zo základných hľadísk pri rozhodovaní o postihu (sankcie) za porušenie pracovnej disciplíny. Zákonník práce rozlišuje medzi dvoma intenzitami porušenia pracovnej disciplíny - závažné a menej závažné, pričom rozdiel medzi závažným a menej závažným porušením pracovnej disciplíny súčasná právna úprava nevymedzuje. Čo sa teda považuje za závažné a za menej závažné porušenie pracovnej disciplíny sa ponecháva na posúdení alebo rozhodnutí zamestnávateľa, ktorý by mal ku každému zamestnancovi a k posúdeniu jeho porušenia pracovnej disciplíny pristupovať individuálne, s prihliadnutím na konkrétne konanie konkrétneho zamestnanca.
