In Covid's Wake
One of The Wall Street Journal’s 10 Best Books of the YearFeatured on the New York Times' The Daily podcast and CNN's Fareed Zakaria GPSWhat our failures during the pandemic cost us, and why we must do betterThe Covid pandemic quickly led to the greatest mobilization of emergency powers in human history. By early April 2020, half the world’s population—3.9 billion people—were living under quarantine. People were told not to leave their homes; businesses were shuttered, employees laid off, and schools closed for months or even years. The most devastating pandemic in a century and the policies adopted in response to it upended life as we knew it. In this eye-opening book, Stephen Macedo and Frances Lee examine our pandemic response and pose some provocative questions: Why did we ignore pre-Covid plans for managing a pandemic? Were the voices of reasonable dissent treated fairly? Did we adequately consider the costs and benefits of different policy options? And, aside from vaccines, did the policies adopted work as intende? ith In Covid’s Wake, Macedo and Lee offer the first comprehensive—and candid—political assessment of how our institutions fared during the pandemic. They describe how, influenced by Wuhan’s lockdown, governments departed from their existing pandemic plans. Hard choices were obscured by slogans like “follow the science.” Benefits and harms were distributed unfairly. The policies adopted largely benefited the laptop class and left so-called essential workers unprotected; extended school closures hit the least-privileged families the hardest. Science became politicized and dissent was driven to the margins. In the next crisis, Macedo and Lee warn, we must not forget the deepest values of liberal democracy: tolerance and open-mindedness, respect for evidence and its limits, a willingness to entertain uncertainty, and a commitment to telling the whole truth.

Za posledním řádkem
Písaři a písařky ve středověku své opisy často uzavírali poznámkami – kolofony. Někdy v nich sdělují, kdy, kde a co opsali, jindy se modlí, omlouvají, stěžují si, žádají odměnu nebo vyhrožují. Tato publikace, založená na korpusu více než 6500 kolofonů v rukopisech dnes uložených v českých knihovnách, představuje kolofony v češtině i v latině, klasické i překvapivé, srozumitelné i obskurní. Jako pokus o systematickou analýzu prostoru „za posledním řádkem“ opsaného textu je určená filologům i historikům a jako antologie kuriozit všem ostatním.
Doba Ježíše Nazaretského
Kniha přináší vhled do prostředí a okolností, v nichž žil a působil Ježíš Nazaretský. Je věnována nejen konkrétní historické, náboženské, sociální a politické problematice spojené s Ježíšovým narozením, působením, smrtí a zmrtvýchvstáním, ale poskytuje i širší pohled na předchozí a následné dění. V pěti rozsáhlých částech může čtenář sledovat události a okolnosti, které mu napomohou lépe pochopit, k jakým změnám a nábožensko-společenským proměnám v 1. stol. n. l. v souvislosti s Ježíšem a jeho hnutím docházelo. Dobře známé antické dějiny kniha ukazuje ve vztahu k osudu tehdy málo známého proroka a učitele, jehož násilná smrt vzápětí začala měnit dějiny. Zároveň může sloužit jako zdroj informací pro ty, kdo chtějí lépe rozumět novozákonním textům jakožto textům, které vycházely z konkrétní historické zkušenosti.

Now, he shares that knowledge in a candid, plain-speaking style designed to inform and galvanize readers from all walks of life.

Ulysses
Following the events of one single day in Dublin, 16 June 1904, and what happens to the characters Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly, Ulysses has been censored, attacked, and deemed profoundly subversive and blasphemous. Ceaselessly inventive, hilarious, garrulous, sorrowful, vulgar, lyrical and ultimately redemptive, it is simultaneously a great novel, a beacon light of the European avant-garde and a modern Irish epic. This new edition has been reset from the original 1922 text, which is now recognized as a key scholarly and historical document.

How Women Win Presidential Elections in Latin America
Between 1990 and 2020, women candidates won only 6% of the world's presidential races. How Women Win Presidential Elections in Latin America explains the factors, strategies, and perceptions that help (or hinder) women to democratically access their country's highest political office. Catherine Reyes-Housholder introduces a theory of gendered incentives and perceived potential to reveal why a political party would break with tradition and nominate a woman. She also shows how citizens respond when women candidates are running in incumbent parties or competing to displace those in power. Drawing on comparative research on the presidency and gender, How Women Win Presidential Elections in Latin America examines the successful campaigns of Michelle Bachelet in Chile and Dilma Rousseff in Brazil, as well as why Blanca Ovelar lost her presidential race in Paraguay. Reyes-Housholder's findings indicate that voter sexism is not a major factor; however, women do not triumph in these elections in the same ways that men do. Rather, the central unknown factor behind women's victories is how they become candidates of major parties—and gender profoundly influences who parties nominate. How Women Win Presidential Elections in Latin America is a valuable investigation of women and executive politics.
Death Was Not on the Guest List
From USA Today bestselling author Jenni L. Walsh comes a witty Jazz Age mystery where rivalry, ambition, and deceit glitter under every chandelier…and no one gets out until the killer is unmasked. In Chicago’s Gold Coast district, twenty of the city’s most glamorous socialites gather for a charity whist drive at the Bellevue House mansion. Brightest among them are Ginevra King Mitchell and Edith Cummings, real-life debutantes who inspired Daisy Buchanan and Jordan Baker in The Great Gatsby. But when their sharp-tongued hostess turns up dead and a blizzard traps everyone inside, suspicion and gossip give way to fear. After all, one guest has a habit of burying husbands, another a proclivity for poison. Their charming veneers belie jealousies, ambitions, and deceits aplenty, enough to drive any one of them to kill. As whispers turn to accusations, the police start closing in. Ginevra and Edith compete to solve the murder, uncovering secrets far more dangerous than the gossip columns ever revealed. But when a second body is found—strangled with Ginevra’s own pearls—their restless rivalry becomes a race for survival. Who’s next? And is the answer hidden in Fitzgerald’s exasperating novel?
