Autismus a náročné chování
Lidé, kteří nemohou komunikovat běžným způsobem, vyjadřují své potřeby chováním, jež nám může připadat náročné. Tato kniha ukazuje, že podobné projevy lze chápat jako zprávy o bolesti, strachu či nenaplněných potřebách, a přináší návod, jak na ně reagovat bez trestů a omezování. Vychází z pozitivních přístupů (například podpory pozitivního chování – PBS), které neusilují o „nápravu“ člověka, ale o zlepšování jeho života a vztahů. Hodnoty respektu, autonomie a kvality života převádí do konkrétních postupů, plánů a strategií využitelných v kažodenní praxi. Publikace je určena rodičům, asistentům, učitelům i odborníkům. Spojuje odbornost s lidskostí – aby meltdown nebyl koncem, ale začátkem změny k lepšímu životu.
Invincible
From the pioneering scientist and longevity expert, Dr Florence Comite, the new science-backed guide to future-proof your body and mind, defy your genetic destiny, and live a healthier, longer life.
What determines how long, and how well, we live?
Many of us assume we should look to our family history for clues - will we have a heart attack at fifty like Dad or develop Type 2 diabetes at seventy like Mum? It makes sense that we'd inherit the same path to ageing.
But your genes do not have to be your destiny.
Dr Florence Comite is the leading expert in healthy longevity, using precision medicine to help her patients reverse symptoms of biological ageing. Her clinical research shows that, even into middle-age, you can reverse the unhealthy trajectory you're on, live disease- and pain-free, active and happy, and recapture the energy of your twenties.
In her groundbreaking new book, Dr Comite offers a comprehensive, science-backed plan to improve your health and longevity. Based on years of clinical research and real case studies, Invincible will empower you to better understand your physiology, identify your unique health trajectory, and understand the specific proactive interventions that will stop and reverse biological ageing, metabolic disorders, heart disease and memory decline.
Unhealthy ageing is not inevitable; this book will show you how to become invincible.
The ADHD Sleep Book
Perfect for the increasingly diagnosed and underdiagnosed, this book fills a crucial market gap with specific and humane sleep advice. It's time for traditional sleep advice to truly consider the neurodivergent mind. If you've ever been called 'lazy' for struggling to wake up 'on time'If you think that sleep is boring when there's so much on your mind.
If you're convinced that sleep advice just doesn't work for you. READ THIS BOOK!
Awareness around ADHD and neurodiversity is growing rapidly, with diagnoses increasing and many more recognising symptoms without formal diagnosis. But when it comes to sleep, it is common to spread the same advice - go to bed earlier, wind down, cut screen time - without considering the uniqueness of the individual.
With research showing that up to 75% of individuals with ADHD experience chronic sleep difficulties, it is clear that sleep is central, not peripheral, to the neurodivergent mind. Yet many of us are stuck in the same shame-spirals- feeling like tiredness around a rigid 9-5 schedule is a moral failure, convinced that we're lazy, have poor discipline or can't get the hang of circadian clocks that seem to work for everyone. Yet no one is talking about the real solution- sleep advice should consider how the ADHD brain actually works - not how it should work.
The ADHD Sleep Book offers empowering rest and recovery strategies that start with you. By understanding the latest science behind sleep and neurodivergent wellbeing - from differences in melatonin levels, delayed sleep phases and hyperarousal at night - this book offers a compassionate and tailored pathway towards a restful night. Through relatable scenarios and drawing on the interventions Heather Darwall-Smith has used as a therapist and sleep specialist to help herself and her clients, this book will leave you feeling understood, empowered and equipped for realistic change.

Dr. Critchlow explores how we build collective wisdom, and how we best fuel our brains.
In a book filled with stories of pioneering research and case studies, and with advice and brain exercises, she shows us how to navigate the coming decades with informed confidence.
A Crane Among Wolves - Daru a farkasok között
Egy testvér megmentése. Egy nép felszabadítása. Egy zsarnok megdöntése.
1506, Csoszon. Az ország népe a kegyetlen zsarnok Jonszán király uralma alatt szenved. A király elkobozza a földeket, betiltja és máglyára veti a könyveket, fiatal nőket és lányokat hurcol el, hogy aztán a játékszerévé tegye őket. Senki sem mer szembeszállni vele.
A tizenhét éves Iszül eleinte védett, kiváltságos életet él, a királyságban uralkodó zűrzavar ellenére. Amikor azonban nővére, Szujon is a király prédájává válik, Iszül elhagyja faluja biztonságát, és tiltott területeken átkelve a fővárosba indul, azzal a reménnyel, hogy kiszabadíthatja nővérét. Hamarosan azonban rádöbben, hogy a király hatalma korlátlan, és uralmának megkérdőjelezésével a biztos halált kockáztatja.
Dejun herceg az egész életét megvetett féltestvére, a király fenyegető árnyékában töltötte. Végignézte a kivégzéseket és a nép ellen elkövetett kegyetlenkedéseket, és egyre erősebb benne a vágy, hogy letaszítsa trónjáról a zsarnoki uralkodót. De egy puccs kudarca végzetes lehet számára, és nem tudhatja, kiben bízhat.
Amikor Iszül és Dejun sorsa keresztezi egymást, kezdeti ellenszenvüknél csak a király iránt érzett gyűlöletük erősebb. Iszül családi kapcsolataival és Dejun udvari befolyásával együtt talán esélyt kapnak a lehetetlenre.

Kill Billionaire
Perhaps one reason not enough people kill billionaires is it's actually quite tricky...
When her home is destroyed in wildfires, fourteen-year-old Australian outback genius Kayla Connolly decides to hunt down the culprits of climate change: billionaires.
She teams up with Mr P, a giant ex-soldier from Tuvalu whose home is being flooded by rising sea levels. Together, they find ingenious ways to kill a property developer building on protected wetlands and a mining company CEO poisoning the earth with toxic chemicals. They also find an unexpected ally in Nancy, a wealthy elderly woman with a shocking past.
The trio's mission soon develops a life of its own, taking them first to California to crack billionaire tech bros and then to London for superrich oil executives, spawning a global movement along the way. In pursuit are the FBI and Detective Sergeant Kate Anderson of Scotland Yard, but Kate is having doubts about whether Kayla is even in the wrong. Will Kayla be able to stay ahead of the game and pull off one final, remarkable hit?
Pekní vtáci
Tretia kniha aforizmov Emila Babína je iná ako dve predchádzajúce. Teraz sa v nej stretli básnik a aforista Babín a filmový režisér Martin Šulík ako výtvarník. Ide o stretnutie nanajvýš šťastné: Babínove aforizmy Šulík skvelo ilustruje a nápadito interpretuje humornou optikou. Kniha sa tým významne získala farebnosť a znásobila jej estetiku.
Autor aforizmov zažil dva režimy a založením je smoliar. Prečo? Lebo len čo si v demokracii konečne slobodne vystrel chrbát, seklo ho v krížoch. No pochopil, že dívať sa a vidieť sú dve rozdielne veci, iný uhol pohľadu. Náš svet je plný súčasníkov, ktorí sa potkýnajú aj na rovnej ceste. Všetky tie prešľapy a pády sú zdrojom aj komických situácií. Tak ako v aforizme Pekní vtáci: Väčšina poslancov má vtáčiu povahu. Do parlamentu sa prišli zazobať.
Martin Šulík svojimi obrázkami zase dokazuje, že je nielen výborný režisér, ale i výtvarník s veľkým darom humoru.
Vychádza v edícii DVAJAvJEDNOM. Dizajn a zalomenie knihy Martin Kurhajec.

Liberal Fascisms
With an apparently contradictory and characteristically makeshift term, ‘Liberal Fascisms’, Slavoj Žižek captures the paradoxical nature of political populism.
To see this phenomenon as purely liberal and dictatorially fascistic is to expose liberalism and fascism as two sides of the same coin. The concept offers a glimpse into the murky landscape of half-lies and double-truths that Žižek enters in this latest collection of urgent essays.
From the economy and politics to ideology, these short texts work through the different faces of liberal fascisms, structured around a trio of the universal, the particular, and the singular: our global predicament; Europe and the Middle East; Trump’s America. Peeling back the inadequate labels we hasten to pin on the phenomena that terrify us – like ‘post-truth– to peer at the seeping wounds beneath them, these writings reveal the uneasy mixture of hypocrisy, self-deception and what is real that have always been stacked, matryoshka like, inside of one another.
With no cure in hand, but a refusal to dispense with thought that is muddled and murky, these interventions are both timely and resolute. From the so-called death of truth opens up the possibility for a new authentic truth… or for an even bigger lie. And ultimately we must ask – what forms of justice are made possible by this disorder?
Liberal Fascisms is also available in audiobook format from audiobook retailers.

At once intimate and expansive, this volume provides fresh insight into one of the most resonant and distinctive voices in contemporary art.
Právo finančného trhu, 2. vydanie
Orientovať sa v hustej spleti verejnoprávnej regulácie a regulačných orgánov na finančnom trhu je pomerne zložité. Učebnica „Právo finančného trhu“ predstavuje v súčasnosti najkomplexnejšie a najaktuálnejšie právnické dielo svojho druhu v tejto oblasti, pričom pokrýva všeobecnú aj osobitnú časť regulácie finančného trhu a tvorí tak „maják“ v regulácii finančných služieb. Systematizuje heterogénnu právnu reguláciu, prepája ekonomický pohľad na finančný trh s právnou normotvorbou a poskytuje výklad k subjektom, nástrojom a funkciám finančného trhu, metódam jeho regulácie, pričom neopomína ani výklad všeobecných ako aj osobitných regulačných princípov. V osobitnej časti obsahuje detailný výklad sektorovej regulácie poskytovania finančných služieb podľa jednotlivých sektorov finančného trhu (banky, poisťovne, kapitálový trh, platobné služby, dôchodkové sporenie, finančné sprostredkovanie, FinTech inovácie a ďalšie), európsku architektúru dohľadu (ESMA, EBA, EIOPA, SSM, SRM, AMLA) a aktuálne cezhraničné trendy a harmonizačné výzvy. Výklad v texte reflektuje na viaceré recentné komplexné regulácie EÚ, napríklad pre oblasť kryptoaktív, crowdfundingu alebo ESG. Zároveň, okrem sektorového „hard law“, zohľadňuje aj metodiku („soft law“) regulačných autorít vo vybraných oblastiach a súvisiacu národnú a európsku judikatúru. Publikáciu ocenia predovšetkým študenti právnických a ekonomických fakúlt. Keďže ide o titul presahujúci rámec tradičnej vysokoškolskej učebnice, jej adresátmi sú aj odborníci pôsobiaci vo finančných inštitúciách, u regulátorov, advokáti a právni konzultanti pôsobiaci v oblasti finančných služieb, ako aj akademickí pracovníci. Publikáciu možno považovať za základný referenčný text na nasledujúcich 5 – 10 rokov, pričom sa svojím rozsahom aj kvalitou približuje vo vybraných témach k monografickej literatúre.

Quiet Protest
A new history of protest told through quiet activism. The Vietnam War sparked the largest public demonstrations Australia had ever seen. Hundreds of thousands of citizens actively opposed the war in the 1960s and 70s. Quiet Protest uncovers a hidden side of this movement, telling the story of activism that was powered by letter-writing, legal aid, fundraising and everyday conversations. The public anti-Vietnam War protest movement was unprecedented, but so was the ‘quieter’ movement. By focusing on the anti-Vietnam War movement in NSW, this book offers a case study which re-imagines our understanding of protest.These quieter acts of dissent reshaped political engagement and laid the groundwork for future movements – from feminist organising to climate justice. Historian Effie Karageorgos offers a captivating new perspective on what it means to protest, and who gets remembered.

Unflinching and compassionate, Louise Brangan draws on archives and survivors’ testimonies to dismantle long-held myths about what the Laundries were, who was sent to these places of violence and secrecy, and why. As we move from the past into the present, Brangan compels us not only to confront this shameful history, but to ask a deeper question: what do we choose to remember?'Engrossing … it feels part novel' MARY McCARTHY, Irish Independent'Critical, informed and beautifully written' MÁIRÉAD ENRIGHT'A forensic ... detailed and haunting history' SEÁN O’HAGAN, ObserverWinner of the 2024 Royal Society of Literature Giles St Aubyn Award

In the Shadow of the Ripper
For centuries, it was believed that a corpse would ‘bleed anew’ in the presence of its murderer. Chaucer wrote about it; so did Shakespeare. Only slowly, as the Renaissance and the Age of Reason drove away the shadows of superstition, did forensic science find its feet. From the Ratlciffe Highway murders of 1811 to the first murder trial with fingerprint technology (the Stratton brothers in 1905), In the Shadow of the Ripper charts the grisly history of crime and focuses on the technological developments that brought real justice just a little closer. General practitioners, police surgeons, anatomists, chemists and many others argued with each other in spectacular cases like the Ripper murders in 1888, the poisonings of William Palmer, Florence Maybrick and the axe frenzy of Lizzie Borden. And if the expert witnesses disagreed, how were juries, ‘twelve men and true’, with no scientific knowledge supposed to come to a verdict at a murder tria? oday, we take forensic science with all its brilliance for granted. In the Shadow of the Ripper looks at how it all began. The Ripper case is a shining example of the fact that it does not matter how many forensic advances are made, a killer in the shadows can sometimes outwit the police and science for over 135 years … and counting.
