Black Girl from Pyongyang


The extraordinary true story of a West African girl’s upbringing in North Korea under the protection of President Kim Il Sung In 1979, aged only seven, Monica Macias was transplanted from West Africa to the unfamiliar surroundings of North Korea. She was sent by her father Francisco, the first president of post-Independence Equatorial Guinea, to be educated under the guardianship of his ally, Kim Il Sung. Within months, her father was executed in a military coup; her mother became unreachable. Effectively orphaned, she and two siblings had to make their life in Pyongyang. At military boarding school, Monica learned to mix with older children, speak fluent Korean and handle weapons on training exercises. After university, she went in search of her roots, passing through Beijing, Seoul, Madrid, Guinea, New York and finally London – forced at every step to reckon with damning perceptions of her adoptive homeland. Optimistic yet unflinching, Monica’s astonishing and unique story challenges us to see the world through different eyes.

Lectures on Quantum Field Theory


The book covers the material of the two-semester course of quantum field theory that the author taught at the Charles University and Czech Technical University in Prague for more than two decades. In the individual chapters one may find the discussion of selected topics in relativistic quantum mechanics and relativistic quantum field theory; the dominant theme is quantum electrodynamics. The technique of Feynman diagrams is described in detail, as well as methods of regularization and renormalization, including some basic applications. The selection of the topics presented in the book is intended to provide the reader with technical skills necessary for a subsequent study of theoretical particle physics. The text contains a lot of detailed explicit calculations in the extent not quite common in other available sources and this corresponds to the contents of typical author’s lectures. The readership is supposed to consist primarily of the university students specialized in theoretical physics or nuclear and particle physics, but it may be useful for any scientifically-minded reader seriously interested in foundations of modern physics. Text knihy pokrývá přednášky dvousemestrálního kursu kvantové teorie pole, které autor konal po více než dvě dekády pro studenty Matematicko-fyzikální fakulty UK a Fakulty jaderné a fyzikálně inženýrské ČVUT, specializované na teoretickou fyziku nebo částicovou a jadernou fyziku; pro tuto čtenářskou obec je také dílo primárně určeno. V jednotlivých kapitolách se rozebírají vybrané partie relativistické kvantové mechaniky a relativistické kvantové teorie pole, přičemž dominantním tématem je zejména kvantová elektrodynamika. Detailně se zde pojednává o technice Feynmanových diagramů, metodách regularizace a renormalizace a jejich některých základních aplikacích. Obsah knihy je koncipován tak, aby čtenář získal potřebné technické základy pro případné následné studium teorie elementárních částic. Text obsahuje řadu podrobných výpočtů v míře, která není zcela obvyklá v jiných dostupných zdrojích a odpovídá to stylu typických autorových přednášek. Kniha byla vydána ve spolupráci s Nakladatelstvím Karolinum Univerzity Karlovy.

Into the Wild


Jon Krakauer's Into the Wild examines the true story of Chris McCandless, a young man who walked deep into the Alaskan wilderness and whose SOS note and emaciated corpse were found four months later. In April 1992, Chris McCandless set off alone into the Alaskan wild. He had given his savings to charity, abandoned his car and his possessions, and burnt the money in his wallet, determined to live a life of independence. Just four months later, Chris was found dead. An SOS note was taped to his makeshift home, an abandoned bus. In piecing together the final travels of this extraordinary young man's life, Jon Krakauer writes about the heart of the wilderness, its terribly beauty and its relentless harshness. Into the Wild is a modern classic of travel writing, and a riveting exploration of what drives some of us to risk more than we can afford to lose. From the author of Under the Banner of Heaven and Into Thin Air. A film adaptation of Into the Wild was directed by Sean Penn and starred Emile Hirsch and Kristen Stewart.

Between Love and Loathing


Fake dating my enemy so I can design my dream bakery should be easy ... as long as I don't fall in love with him. Dominic Hardy might be an award-winning architectural engineer with fancy degrees and considerable accolades, but he doesn't know a thing about baking. He doesn't even like sugar. So when my late stepfather's will states that Dominic Hardy is set to inherit the Pacific C oast Resort he'd painstakingly designed, as long as my bakery can be plopped in the middle of it, it's no surprise he balks. And my jaw drops when another stipulation requires us to mutually approve plans for my bakery's design. His stuffy taste will never mix with my whimsical vibe. But then Dominic comes to me with a proposal I can't refuse. He'll give me everything I want in my bakery as long as I agree to one thing: Fake date him for five months. Keep his ex away by pretending we're in love. Smile and stare into his piercing green eyes at a gala or two. Maybe share a kiss. Nothing extreme. Five months of acting in love when I really loathe him and his filthy mouth. Even when he's using it on me. This should be a cakewalk. Except there's a fine line between love and loathing, and I think I've made the colossal mistake of blurring it.

Bismarck's War


Less than a month after it marched into France in summer 1870, the Prussian army had devastated its opponents, captured Napoleon III and wrecked all assumptions about Europe's pecking order. Other countries looked on in helpless amazement. Pushing aside further French resistance, a new German Empire was proclaimed (as a deliberate humiliation) in the Palace of Versailles, leaving the French to face civil war in Paris, reparations and the loss of Alsace and Lorraine. Bismarck's War tells the story of one of the most shocking reversals of fortune in modern European history. The culmination of a globally violent decade, the Franco-Prussian War was deliberately engineered by Bismarck, both to destroy French power and to unite Germany. It could not have worked better, but it also had lurking inside it the poisonous seeds of all the disasters that would ravage the twentieth century. Drawing on a remarkable variety of sources, Chrastil's book explores the military, technological, political and social events of the war, its human cost and the way that the sheer ferocity of war, however successful, has profound consequences for both victors and victims.

Goodbye Eastern Europe


Eastern Europe is more than the sum total of its annexations, invasions and independence declarations. From the Baltics to the Balkans, from Prague to Kiev, the area exuded a tragicomic character like no other. This is a paean for a disappearing world of movable borders, sacred groves and syncretism. And an invitation to not forget.
