The Future Is Peace
Palestinian Aziz Abu Sarah and Israeli Maoz Inon are unlikely peacemakers, dedicated to finding a solution to the bitter war that has decimated historical, ancient land and ended family lines. Despite the losses they have suffered, the resolve of their friendship has taught them that strength and unity are more powerful than the violence of separation. Throughout their travels, they have been constantly asked: In the face of so much pain and suffering on both sides, when there have been so many lives lost and families shattered, how can they ever find hope? Their answer is always the same. One cannot find hope. We must create it.
In The Future Is Peace, Sarah and Inon take readers on their unforgettable weeklong journey across the holy land. They explore each other's personal and national histories in a land of competing narratives, amid the turbulent push and pull of near constant war, and the recent devastation that has rocked the world. Their mission is to explain the naivete in believing that more violence can bring security and prosperity to either people while in search of a true and lasting peace.
Pairing unapologetic candour and inspirational prose, Sarah and Inon are sending a message to humanity that the people have the power to make change. Peace is achievable, not just between the river and the sea, but throughout the world.

Tom Clancy Line of Demarcation
The discovery of an oil field off the coast of Guyana plunges Jack Ryan, Jr. into a cauldron of lies in the latest entry in this internationally bestselling series.
It starts with the destruction of a US Coast Guard cutter and the loss of her entire crew. But the USCG Claiborne was on an innocuous mission to open a sea lane between an oil field off the coast of Guyana and the refineries of southern Louisiana. The destruction of the ship, tragic as it is, won't stop that mission from continuing.
So who would sacrifice twenty-two men and women just to slow down the plan? That's the question plaguing Jack Ryan Jr. He's in Guyana to work a deal to get his company, Hendley Associates, in on the ground floor of this new discovery, but the destruction of the Claiborne and the kidnapping of the Guyanese Interior Minister make it clear that there's a malignant force working to destroy Guyana's oil industry.
It's up to Jack to identify the killers before they draw a bead on him, but how can he do that when the line of demarcation between friend and foe is constantly shifting?
Murder In Paris 68
In 1960s Paris, the high-life and the low-life go hand in hand. It is a time of glamour, sports cars, casinos and night clubs with a cast of actresses, petty criminals, high-level gangsters and compromised politicians. And with French cinema taking the world by storm, the man at the dark heart of it all is an enigmatic film star dubbed 'the most beautiful man in the world'.
With a shady past and a taste for bad company, Alain Delon lives on the edge. But when a dead body turns up in the outskirts of Paris that turns out to be his associate, Stevan, questions begin to be asked. That Delon shot to stardom playing the stylish and murderous Tom Ripley does not go unnoticed. Is art imitating life or is life imitating art? And who killed Stevan Markovic?
Edward Chisholm, author of the acclaimed A Waiter In Paris submerses the reader into the city's demimonde and draws us intimately into events as they unfold. And as we inhabit the lives of the players in this extraordinary true-life drama, we witness what became to be known as The Markovic Affair from the inside, as it spirals out of control and not only pulls down Alain Delon but everyone in his orbit.
Israel: What Went Wrong
A leading genocide scholar explores the history of Zionism, Israel's lurch towards extreme oppression and violence, and why it stands accused of crimes against humanity.
Professor Omer Bartov was born on a kibbutz, grew up in Tel Aviv and served in the Israel Defence Forces during the Yom Kippur War. He went on to become an expert on the German army and the Holocaust, before turning his attention to his native country.
In Israel: What Went Wrong?, Bartov explores the transformation of Zionism from a movement of Jewish emancipation and liberation into a state ideology of ethno-nationalism, exclusion and violent domination of Palestinians. He traces the process whereby Israel - whose establishment in 1948 received international support in the aftermath of the Holocaust - now faces accusations of war crimes and genocide.
What are the implications of Israel's near total impunity for the post-1945 regime of international law? And how do we understand the widespread support for these policies by Israel's Jewish citizens?
The result is a searing and urgent critique that addresses today's debates over Zionism, genocide, and the future of Israel with rigour and depth.
Consolations
Why do some loves endure while others fade? Is happiness something we can learn? Why do some things feel like work and others like leisure?
Every new page of Consolations offers a thought-provoking idea about life - from friendship and family arguments to ageing and narcissism. Renowned classicist Irene Vallejo shows us how each of these ideas has its roots in ancient times, drawing on the wisdom of Aristotle and Seneca, as well as lesser known philosophy and history.
Each entry brings a surprising insight, and helps us to think differently about our daily life. These are fascinating little gems to read every day, and to savour slowly.
The Optimized Human
If you want to improve your life, health and happiness you need to upgrade the fundamentals: sleep, nutrition, exercise, work and the mind. And the best way to do this is through applying science, nutrition and even technology to these areas of our lives - the art known as 'biohacking'.
But targeting all of these areas individually can feel overwhelming - and that's where this book comes in. While there is an almost endless array of research into what may, or may not, help your health, The Optimized Human harnesses the most cutting-edge information on science, diet and technology and turns them into a practical, manageable and customizable plan that will revolutionize every area of your wellbeing.
It is the missing manual of the human body, and an essential addition to the library, work desk, kitchen, gym, suitcase or bedroom of anyone who wants to get the best out of their life.
The Lost Voices of Pompeii
We all know how the people of Pompeii died. But what about how they lived?
In 24 hours, Pompeii will vanish.
The morning of the eruption was a day like any other. Julia Felix opens her tavern for another day of business, defying every convention that says a woman can't succeed alone. Petrinus, newly freed from slavery, wrestles with an impossible decision about his future. Politician Gaius Cuspius Pansa prepares to host the Plebian Games, a spectacle that will cement his power forever.
In 24 hours, seven lives will change forever.
Drawing on the latest archaeological discoveries, Dr Jess Venner brings the ancient streets to life through the eyes of those who lived, worked, loved and ultimately met their fate in Pompeii. Here is a community more complex, diverse and human than we ever imagined.
Pompeii is remembered for its destruction, but here we discover the vibrant lives that came before. Richly evocative and immersive, The Lost Voices of Pompeii vividly recreates the final twenty-four hours before the eruption, reminding us exactly what – and who – was lost in 79 AD.
This is the story of everything, and everyone, that was lost.
For anyone who has ever walked the ruins of Pompeii and wondered what lives beneath the ash, this is the book that answers that question.
Kaland és feladványok - A titkok múzeuma
Készülj fel egy éjszakai kalandra a Régiségek Múzeumában, ahol a Talányos család oldalán 182 trükkös rejtvényen keresztül kell feltárnod a kiállított kincsek között megbújó titkokat! A család egy felejthetetlen napot tölt a múzeumban, ám annyira elmerülnek a kincsekben, hogy észre sem veszik a zárórát.

Remember Me Tomorrow - Holnap is emlékezz rám
EGY ELTŰNT DIÁK. EGY REJTÉLYES NYOMOZÁS. EGY LASSAN KIBONTAKOZÓ SZERELEM.
Az East House a campus legrégebbi és legkevésbé népszerű kollégiuma, de az elsőéves, magányos Aleeza Kassam számára mégis vonzerővel bír: innen tűnt el öt hónappal korábban Jay Hoque, a sármos és zárkózott diák. Egy feltörekvő oknyomozó újságírónak, mint amilyen Aleeza, ez ellenállhatatlan rejtély.
Amikor azonban elkezd üzeneteket kapni Jaytől, a titok váratlan fordulatot vesz – ugyanis az üzenetek nemcsak Aleeza saját kollégiumi szobájából érkeznek, hanem egyenesen a múltból, mindössze hetekkel Jay eltűnése előttről.
Aleeza és Jay ugyanabban a térben – de más időben – megtapasztalják a lehetetlent, és együtt próbálják megakadályozni a fiú eltűnését. Egy időparadoxon, ami az univerzum pusztulásával fenyeget, olyan kockázat, amit vállalniuk kell.
Aleeza Jay gyanús barátai, ellenségei és exei nyomába ered, hogy kiderítse, mi történt a fiúval. Vagy mi fog történni. A helyzet azonban tovább bonyolódik, amikor Aleeza érzéseket kezd táplálni elbűvölő új lakótársa iránt – bárhol és bármikor is legyen ő…
„Mind a krimik, mind az időutazós történetek rajongóinak elnyeri a tetszését.” – The Book Decoder blog

Nora és a Káosz iránytűje
MÁR MEGINT TE?! Hát nem értesz a szóból?
IGEN, jól emlékszel, minden idők legnagyobb szörnyvadásza áll előtted. NEM, eszemben sincs mesélni arról az esetről, amikor Patkival meg Borzassal üldözőbe vettünk egy szélhámos szörnyvadászt, és közben ujjpercfaló szarumajszákkal meg jégleheletű tabuárokkal harcoltunk.
Úgyhogy tedd szépen vissza ezt a könyvet a polcra, és TŰZZ INNEN!
Nora ismét veszélyes kalandra indul, hogy megtalálja eltűnt barátját, bár arra nem számít, hogy a gyerekek titokban csatlakoznak hozzá. Vajon a tökéletlen triónak sikerül megállítania a gonosztevőt, mielőtt késő lenne?
Noráék előző kalandjáról a Nora és a Káosztérkép című könyvben olvashatsz.

Story of the Century
A PRESTO BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024'Gripping.' FINANCIAL TIMES'Breathtaking.' SIMON CALLOW'Vivid.' BBC MUSIC MAGAZINEA colourful and concise telling of the fascinating story behind Richard Wagner's extraordinary masterpiece, Ring of the Nibelung. The Ring is one of the most epic and compelling stories of the nineteenth century, created by a composer who was, alongside Dickens, Tolstoy and Victor-Hugo, also one of the century's master storytellers. But the story of how Wagner created the work is one full of intrigue and triumphs against unlikely odds - as well as controversy, due to the composer's anti-semitic views and popularity with the Nazi party. In Story of the Century, Michael Downes combines cultural history and biography to offer this accessible and insightful introduction to The Ring and its mythology. He tells the story of how and why this extraordinary masterpiece came into being, why it takes the form it does, why it fascinates and obsesses so many and horrifies others, and why it matters.
