Kite Day
Mamus and her son love Kite Days. But conditions have to be right. Sometimes the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, and the day is calling… But it's still not a Kite Day. Sometimes the clouds roll in, and the wind is too strong… And they still try for a Kite Day. But when their string gets tangled and the light gets dim, they must stay inside and wait for their next chance at a Kite Day. Navigating worry, anger, sadness and disappointment, Mamus and her son fly their kite together. While her mood mirrors the kite’s motions – gently rising, twisting in the wind, tangling in a tree, and crashing to the ground – the pair continue to try. Despite the ups and downs, their love is, and will always remain, constant. “Is today a kite day?” I ask Mamus. Her smile is a blossom unfolding. “Let’s go and see,” she says. An honest yet hopeful glimpse into a child’s experience with a parent who has bipolar illness or other mood-related struggles, including concrete suggestions for young readers who are concerned about a loved one, this is a key social and emotional learning (SEL) book for young readers and loved ones navigating a mental health illness.

From the mountains of Tibet, the cotton fields in Syria, and a city in Ukraine, families pack their bags and say goodbye to their homes as they leave in search of safety.

Gods & Comics
Seventeen-year-old junior class vice president Grace Bak has her entire future all mapped out with plans to become a doctor like her parents. But the weight of Grace’s own daunting expectations leads to debilitating panic attacks that have made her a virtual outcast at school, even to her longtime friend and crush. To make matters worse, her grandmother and only real support system has just died. Halmeoni was the glue that kept Grace’s little family together, especially after she and her dad lost her mother to cancer when Grace was too little to have many memories of her. To cope with the grief of another loss, Grace starts a webcomic inspired by the Korean myths her Halmeoni used to tell her as a child. In Sun God, Grace spins the tale of Korean god Haemosu and his love Yuhwa, but with a twist - the two gods are trapped in the bodies of teenagers and, worst of all, cursed to attend high school. Grace never expected her comic to go viral, but it has, and the new fandom has somehow conjured the real Haemosu. Now it’s up to Grace to get him back home. But when she starts to fall for Hae, sending him home is the last thing she wants to do. More troubling, Hae isn’t the only god to suddenly reappear. Hae’s sworn enemy - also brought back to the mortal realm by Grace’s comic - is set on destroying Hae, all while infecting humanity with a deadly disease. As an epic battle between god’s looms, Hae is without his powers, so it may fall to Grace to fight back against a vengeful god hell-bent on punishing anyone who gets in his way.

Outsmarting Cancer
A comprehensive guide to understanding and preventing cancer by addressing its root causes. Outsmarting Cancer reframes one of the most pressing medical challenges of our time: how to prevent cancer. In this timely and accessible book, physician and medical researcher Adam Barsouk, MD, presents a sweeping examination of cancer's true origins—biological, environmental, dietary, infectious, industrial, occupational, and behavioral—and makes a compelling case for why cancer prevention must become a central priority in public and personal health. With personal stories from his clinical practice and the latest research, Dr. Barsouk explains why more people are getting diagnosed with cancer—and at younger ages—than ever before. This book explores a wide range of overlooked and misunderstood risk factors, as well as how inequities in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention disproportionately impact underserved populations. Unlike typical cancer books that focus narrowly on diet or organ-specific disease, Outsmarting Cancer takes a comprehensive, systems-level view, urging readers to look beyond the symptoms and target the root causes. Dr. Barsouk explores the role of genetic predisposition to cancer alongside environmental, lifestyle, and public policy influences that may contribute to developing the disease. With rigorous scientific insight, he offers real-world, evidence-based strategies to reduce cancer risk in practical, meaningful ways. Honest, urgent, and empowering, Outsmarting Cancer challenges readers to rethink how we talk about cancer and how we can reduce its burden before it begins.

Advokáti mrtvých
Mrtví nemluví. Ale někdo za ně mluvit musí.
Jednadvacet rozhovorů s českými, moravskými a slovenskými soudními lékaři a lékařkami otevírá dveře do světa, který většina z nás zná jen z televizních seriálů – a přesto si o něm uchovává překvapivě zkreslené představy. Soudní lékařství totiž není totéž co patologie, ačkoli je s ní dodnes mylně zaměňováno či směšováno.
Kniha Advokáti mrtvých zachycuje myšlenky, vzpomínky, zkušenosti a názory generace odborníků, kteří svůj profesní život zasvětili hledání pravdy tam, kde už oběť nemůže promluvit sama. Jejich osobní svědectví – pořízená metodou orální historie, moderním směrem v současné historiografii – nejsou jen fascinujícím čtením, ale i cenným pramenem poznání nedávné minulosti oboru i celé společnosti. Právě tento přístup podtrhuje význam osobního sdělení a rehabilituje roli subjektivního svědectví jako plnoprávného zdroje historického poznání.
Druhé vydání se vrací ke čtenářům s vědomím, že příběhy zaznamenané v této knize jsou o to naléhavější, čím více času od nich uplynulo. Některé z hlasů, které zde zaznívají, už dnes nelze slyšet nikde jinde.
Rozhovorům předcházejí odborné studie představující soudní lékařství i metodu orální historie a shrnující postup pořizování a úpravy rozhovorů. Knihu doplňuje biografický slovník, jmenný rejstřík, obrazová příloha a poznámkový aparát.
Soudní lékařství je dnes lékařsko-právní obor se širokým dopadem nejen zdravotnickým, ale i společenským. Tato kniha proto není čtením jen pro odborníky – ale pro každého, koho zajímá, jak se z mlčení mrtvých rodí spravedlnost.
Of Love & Dragons
Dragons may be fierce but they are symbols of great power, and the bond between human and dragon, once forged, can never be broken. Or can it? Can romance deal a deathly trail of vows abandoned, or forgotten, and can realms beyond our time conjure tales of Dragon Lords, warrior princesses and great rivalries?
Modern writers have sought to explore these questions and more, in a new anthology of enchanting romantic fantasy fiction. Strong-willed, independent leads navigate epic fantasy worlds and emotionally charged quests, featuring lyrical romance, and of course, majestic dragons.
A Breath of Time
Time – at once fleeting and eternal – is a tricksy, intangible dimension. A Breath of Time, part of Flame Tree's exciting new series of Romantic Fantasy titles, is a collection filled with stories of lost loves, love discovered, love unreachable unless Time itself is conquered; stories of time-bending, time traveling, time distorting; of alternate history and parallel timelines, of ancient forests returning to haunt the present and great adventures through dreams and timeless mountain tops, all with hearts beating to the rhythm of romance.
Láska a intimita
Český sexuální život pod lupou Mění se společnost, kultura i média — a s nimi i sexualita a sexuální chování. Jak dnes vypadá partnerský a sexuální život v Česku? Kolik partnerů průměrně vystřídáme v posteli? V jakých polohách? Sledujeme často porno? Máme orgasmus? Kniha Láska a intimita prezentuje a interpretuje výsledky stejnojmenného reprezentativního průzkumu Národního ústavu duševního zdraví a mapuje u českých obyvatel klíčové momenty jejich sexuálního vývoje, životní historii v oblasti lásky a intimity, nepříznivé zážitky i zkušenosti s rozkoší. Podrobně rovněž analyzuje používané sexuálních polohy a praktiky, parafilie či trendy v seznamování a navazování vztahů. Láska a intimita tak přináší nové poznání o české společnosti v oblasti, v níž kvůli studu, mýtům, ale i nedostatkům dat panuje pořád ještě zmatek a předsudky.
