Our Perfect Storm
Two best friends. Seven days in paradise. One last chance to fall in love or fall apart.
Frankie and George have been best friends since they were eight. They've always clashed and come back together-it's what they do. Until now. On the eve of her wedding, Frankie doesn't know where they stand or even if George will show up as her best man.
As she loses hope, in walks George. For one glorious evening, Frankie's life is finally perfect. But it all comes crashing down when her fiancé dumps her the next morning, leaving only a note behind.
Crushed and confused, Frankie only wants to wallow. But George has a different idea. He wants her to go on her honeymoon. With him. For one week, to the lush rainforests and misty beaches of Tofino.
Frankie agrees, seeing the trip for what it really is: one last chance to repair their friendship. Even if it means unearthing secrets and long buried feelings neither knows how to handle. Even if it means falling apart for good.

Klíč k domovu
Slaný vítr mi vhání slzy do očí, když hledím na smaragdové vody Irského moře. Všechno, o co jsem přišla, i dítě, které ztratila moje prababička Nellie, je tady najednou tak opravdové – v zemi, kterou má rodina opustila. Jak mám jít dál? Odhalím někdy pravdu o malé dívce, která před tolika lety zmizela?
Když Erin, rodačka z Bostonu, přijíždí do větrem bičované zátoky Roone Bay, má zlomené srdce, je unavená a osamělá. Její manželství skončilo a teď se snaží vybudovat nový život na drsném pobřeží Irska. A také rozluštit příběh záhadného vzkazu ve staré rodinné bibli, který ji pronásleduje od dětství. Finn, místní historik a člen pobřežní stráže, však její prosby o pomoc odmítá.
Erin se tedy zabydlí v městečku s vybílenými chalupami a rybáři s tvářemi ošlehanými větrem a vydává se pátrat po vlastní ose. Kdo byla její příbuzná Nellie a proč odešla z Irska do Ameriky? Co se stalo s její ztracenou dcerkou Annie a setkala se s ní Nellie ještě někdy?
Erin už začíná ztrácet naději, že se někdy dopátrá pravdy, když ji jedné deštivé noci zachrání Finn, který nakonec souhlasí, že jí pomůže. A večer co večer, při světle ohně a svíček, tak jako za časů její prababičky, se Finn a Erin sbližují, když si navzájem vyprávějí své životní příběhy.
Ovšem ve chvíli, kdy Erin začíná věřit, že by městečko Roone Bay mohlo být jejím novým domovem, učiní zdrcující objev. Dokáže čelit pravdě, která změní všechno, co si dosud myslela o sobě, své minulosti i irském dědictví své rodiny? Nebo uteče, stejně jako kdysi Nellie, a promarní tak největší šanci na štěstí, jakou kdy měla?

Living Planet
A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough's seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet.
Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet.
In The Living Planet, David Attenborough's searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies, from the lonely heights of the Himalayas to the wild creatures that have established themselves in the most recent of environments, the city. By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing - the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet.
In this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section. He also addresses the urgent issues facing our living planet: climate change, pollution and mass extinction of species.
Zdravotnické právo

Čtenář získá přehled o tom, jaká práva má pacient, jaké povinnosti mají poskytovatelé zdravotních služeb a jaké právní dopady mohou mít rozhodnutí učiněná v klinické praxi. Kniha vysvětluje základní právní principy, upozorňuje na nejčastější rizikové situace a nabízí orientaci v právních otázkách, které zdravotníci řeší při své práci.
Publikace se věnuje soukromoprávním vztahům mezi pacientem a poskytovatelem zdravotních služeb, odpovědnosti za újmu, informovanému souhlasu, zdravotnické dokumentaci i trestněprávním aspektům zdravotnické praxe. Samostatná pozornost je věnována také znalecké činnosti ve zdravotnictví a specifickým situacím, které vznikají na rozhraní medicíny a práva.
Kniha je určena především studentům zdravotnických oborů, lékařům, nelékařským zdravotnickým pracovníkům a dalším profesionálům působícím ve zdravotnictví. Využití však najde i u studentů práva, právníků specializujících se na zdravotnické právo nebo pracovníků veřejné správy.
Autorka propojuje zkušenost soudní lékařky a právničky a nabízí tak jedinečný pohled na právní otázky medicínské praxe.
Street, Palace, Square
Can architecture ever be democratic? An elegant, timely new theory of politics and urban design from the acclaimed author of What is Populism? and Democracy Rules
Building requires power and resources - then, once created, our environment structures how we relate to each other. But what would a distinctly democratic built environment look like? Should we prioritize an inclusive process by which as many citizens as possible can decide how a building is designed? Or is it about how architecture and urban spaces can best represent democracy to citizens - and how building and city planning can concretely facilitate democratic action by citizens?
In Street, Palace, Square, political theorist Jan-Werner Müller offers an elegant new account of architecture and democracy that draws on examples from Washington DC to Dhaka, Cairo to Berlin. Ranging widely across political philosophy, history and design, he shows that bringing architecture and democracy together has an unexpected benefit. As we reflect on spaces and symbols on the one hand and our understandings of democracy on the other, we might see possibilities we did not see before: how to create spaces for citizens to make politics their own.
Erno Rubik
Discover the fascinating story of Ernő Rubik, the inventor of the world-famous Rubik’s Cube, and master of creativity and problem-solving!
Ernő Rubik was born in Budapest in Hungary in 1944. His mother was a poet and his father a flight engineer, and as a child Ernő loved colours and shapes, design and geometry. He went to art school but soon realised he wanted to make things that served a purpose as well as looking good. Erno studied architecture and discovered a passion for teaching – he and his students worked together building things and testing ideas in his studio.
Determined to build something that would help his students understand how things move and change shape, Ernő started work on the cube that would make him famous in 1974. It took a lot of time and patience to build, but his ingenuity and perseverance paid off. Ernő’s students both loved and hated the puzzle finding it hugely addictive, so Ernő took it to a games company. And the rest, as they say, is history . . .
A global sensation, the cube soon captivated the world; over 350 million Rubik’s cube have been sold, making it one of the bestselling toys in history. Erno’s success story celebrates the power of curiosity and innovation, showing children that even small ideas can have a big impact.
This inspiring book features vibrantillustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the artist's life.
Carthage
The empire behind the legend
Carthage was a power that dominated the western Mediterranean for almost six centuries before its fall to Rome. The history of the realm and its Carthaginians was subsumed by their conquerors and, along the way, the story of the real Carthage was lost. An ancient North African kingdom, Carthage was the home of Hannibal and of Dido, of war elephants and enormous power and wealth, of great beauty and total destruction.
In this landmark new history, Eve MacDonald tells the essential story of the lost culture of Carthage and of its forgotten people, using brand new archaeological analysis to uncover the history behind the legend. A journey that takes us the Phoenician Levant of the early Iron Age to the Atlantic and all along the coast of Africa, Carthage puts the city and the story of North Africa once again at the centre of Mediterranean history. Reclaimed from the Romans, this, for the very first time, is the Carthaginian version of the tale.
Great Kingdoms of Africa
An essential overview of great kingdoms in African history and their legacies, written by world-leading experts.
From the ancient Nile Valley to the savannas of medieval West Africa, the highlands of Ethiopia and on to the forests, lakes and grasslands to the south, African civilizations have given rise to some of the world's most impressive kingdoms. Yet Africa's history is often little known beyond the devastation wrought by the slave trade and European colonial rule. In this groundbreaking book, nine leading historians of Africa take a fresh look at these great kingdoms and empires over five thousand years of recorded history.
How was kingship forged in Africa and how did it operate? Was dynastic power maintained by consent or by coercion? Did kings - and queens - display and project that power for all to see, or did they hide it away, as beneath the fringed crowns that concealed the faces of sacred Yoruba rulers? In what ways have African peoples themselves recorded, celebrated and critiqued the deeds of their kings? Great Kingdoms of Africa explores some of the most important questions in the continent's deep past.

The Power of Beliefs
MASTER THE BELIEFS THAT DRIVE SUCCESS.
Each of us has a lens through which we see the world, one that has been crafted by every experience we've ever had and is made up of our conscious and unconscious beliefs. But even though this lens has remarkable predictive power on our outcomes in work and life, we are often unaware of how much it shapes our choices-and how much power we have to change it, and our lives, for the better.
In The Power of Beliefs Shawn Achor draws from his groundbreaking work in fifty countries over twenty years to introduce a critical set of tools, the seven Core Power Beliefs:
1. My Behavior Matters
2. I Matter
3. I Am Not Alone
4. This Work is Meaningful
5. I Have Things To Be Grateful for in the Present
6. I Have Something to Give
7. There Is Something Greater Than Me
The extent to which we embrace these beliefs is the strongest indicator of positive outcomes across all aspects of our lives. Using fascinating examples from his own research and the cutting-edge work of others, Achor shows just how powerful our beliefs can be. He shows us how to undertake the often challenging work of changing our beliefs to transform our lens, opening up a world of possibilities previously unseen. And the benefits don't stop there: Once we know that change is possible, the next step is helping to strengthen the beliefs and trajectories of our family, friends, coworkers, and the world around us.
The Serviceberry
As Indigenous scientist and author of Braiding Sweetgrass Robin Wall Kimmerer harvests serviceberries alongside the birds, she considers the ethic of reciprocity that lies at the heart of the gift economy. How, she asks, can we learn from Indigenous wisdom and the plant world to reimagine what we value most?
Our economy is rooted in scarcity, competition, and the hoarding of resources, and we have surrendered our values to a system that actively harms what we love. Meanwhile, the serviceberry’s relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealth?its abundance of sweet, juicy berries?to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution ensures its own survival.
The Serviceberry is an antidote to the broken relationships and misguided goals of our times, and a reminder that “hoarding won’t save us, all flourishing is mutual.”
