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.
The 21st Century Brain
How do we nurture our own and our children's brains so we have the resilience to thrive during the coming wave of technological, and societal change? How do we keep up in the face of AI?
Neuroscientist Dr. Hannah Critchlow takes readers on an empowering journey through the fascinating landscape of the latest neuroscience research and deep into their own intelligence. It is human skills curiosity, compassion, communication, courage and creativity that will provide the answer to the challenges ahead. We should lean into our collaborative skills, our ability to intuit and to think long-term, to adapt and to focus.
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.
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.

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.

Tank Battles of the Cold War, 1948–1991
As Anthony Tucker-Jones shows in this highly illustrated, wide-ranging history, for most of the Cold War the tank retained its pre-eminence on the battlefield. The Arab-Israeli wars witnessed some of the biggest tank battles of all time, and tanks played key roles in conflicts in Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan as well as in the Iran-Iraq War and the wars fought between India and Pakistan. But then in the mid-1960s anti-tank weapons became ever deadlier and the Mechanised Infantry Fighting Vehicle (MIFV), which was designed to support infantry and fight tanks, emerged and the heyday of the tank was over.Chapters cover each major phase in the evolution of the tank and of tank warfare during the period, from the battles fought in the late 1940s and 1950s with Second World War armoured vehicles like the T-34 and the Sherman, through to the designs common in the 1960s and 1970s like the T-55, Centurion, Challenger and M60 Patton, to the confrontation between the M1 Abrams and the T-72 during the Gulf War in 1991. Technical and design developments are important elements throughout the story, but so are dramatic changes in tactics and armaments which mean the tank has an increasingly uncertain role in modern warfare.

America’s Favorite Warlord
Meet America’s favorite “warlord,” Abdul Raziq Achakzai (1976-2018). This book depicts the U.S. war in Afghanistan from a new perspective: that of the most dynamic and fearsome of America’s late allies. His critics castigated him as another of the corrupt strongmen who have dominated Central Asia for the past four decades. But a closer look at Raziq’s environment will allow readers from the West to understand how military leaders came to participate in Afghan governance after 2001, much as Americans have turned to charismatic authoritarians to establish justice in the face of uncertainty at home in the past. Why did foreigners continue to work with Raziq, given his grievous reputation? The short answer is that he was competent from a military perspective. But speaking of General Raziq with his former comrades revealed that competence in counterinsurgency took on many distinct connotations. Over the course of his career, Raziq not only captured and killed Taliban fighters. He provided intelligence, recruited and organized manpower, rallied lagging forces, and allowed outsiders a way into the complex tribal politics of Kandahar Province. Above all, his charisma and enthusiasm inspired hope in his military partners, along with wide swaths of the population of Kandahar. Almost everyone who met Raziq remarked on his force of personality, which took on cult status in his last years. Raziq rose to power as a hybrid figure, as he gained authority through his military skills and as part of a tribal hierarchy. This hybridity helps to explain why his leadership was flexible and inclusive rather than authoritarian in nature. Although he began his career as a narrow tribal militiaman, he ended it as a coalition-building nationalist. In our age of militarized borders, proxy wars, and insurgencies, Raziq’s career as a regional strongman offers an important case study for ongoing security dilemmas around the world.
Tombstones of Roman Britain
Discover the men, women, and children who called the Roman province of Britannia home through the most final ? and often only ? evidence they left behind: their tombstones. What can we learn from these lasting monuments to the dead? This book brings together a selection of surviving tombstones from Roman Britain for the first time in an easy-to-access collection, accompanied by useful contextual information on ancient burial practices, funerary symbolism, and afterlife beliefs. Explore the lives and deaths of people from every walk of life who came from all over the vast Roman Empire: from the devoted wives and playful children living along Hadrian's Wall, to the experienced soldiers stationed at forts across the province, and even the enslaved as they are commemorated for all eternity on these ancient inscribed stones. New clear translations of the inscriptions introduce these memorials to modern readers, and a handy guide at the end also equips readers with the tools for decoding common Latin funerary abbreviations for themselves. Each tombstone is accompanied by background information on the deceased, while accompanying illustrations and photographs of the tombstones bring these ancients back to life. AUTHOR: Dr Stephanie Holton is Staff Tutor and Lecturer in Classical Studies at the Open University. Her teaching and research explore ancient ideas about death, the body, and the soul across the Greek and Roman worlds.
