Windswept
From New York Times bestselling and Newbery Honor–winning author Margi Preus, a gripping middle-grade fantasy about a girl who must save the children of her world from being “windswept.”In Tag’s world, children are disappearing. “Youngers” who venture Outside are windswept—vanishing in the swirling snow—Tag’s sisters among them. Many have tried to find the lost children; all have failed. And since the Other Times, the Powers That Be seem intent on keeping it that way. Little remains from those times: snippets of songs, heaps of plastic trash, and a few banned texts—including a book of fairy tales. An unlikely crew of Youngers join forces—Boots, who can climb anything, Ant, who will eat anything, Ren, who will say anything, and Tag, who doesn’t appear to have any talent whatsoever. With their dubious skills, the fairy tales, a possibly magic ribbon, and an unwillingness to accept “that’s impossible,” they set off to rescue their windswept siblings in this spellbinding fantasy. Includes a map and black-and-white illustrations by award-winning artist Armando Veve
Odds and Ends
In this charming translated work from Finland, an imaginative child makes a scrapbook of "lasts" instead of "firsts," inviting readers to reflect on what they hold onto and save. Some people collect pens, shells, or stamps. Others collect friends, trips, or world records. This picture book shares one girl’s unusual collection: a collection of lasts. With a feel for the poignant, the bittersweet, and the odd, an observant, emotionally astute child shares the whimsical, eccentric, and touching lasts she has collected, from the last day cold enough for a wool cap, to the last anxious breath before a high dive, to the last person in her class to lose a tooth, to the last piece of chocolate, to the last words of a whole life. Beautifully illustrated in pencil and watercolor, this is an exploration of lasts that might set something new in motion—or might bring finality. There are feelings of fear, sadness, contentment, longing, and happiness here, making for a wistful picture book in which a young girl’s collection of last moments is depicted with a warm touch. Odds and Ends is a collection of memories which invites open discussion of each reader’s personal lasts.

Vnitřní čas člověka
Autor provede čtenáře vědeckými poznatky o biologických hodinách člověka. S využitím vlastních studií i poznatků mezinárodní komunity vědců zabývajících se spánkem a biologů studujících cirkadiánní rytmy, ilustruje vliv denní doby na naše zdraví: jak nám večerní procházky zajistí lepší spánek, jak jídlo po západu slunce ovlivňuje naši hmotnost i jaké účinky má na náš život doba užívání léků.
V moderní době jsme zanedbali zásadní součást naší biologie. Stále častěji přesouváme rutinní činnosti do nočních hodin a věnujeme se práci, cvičení a společenskému životu dlouho po setmění. Zapomněli jsme, že se naše těla se řídí 24 hodinovými biologickými hodinami, které nás vedou k nejlepšímu času na spaní, jídlo a pití. Nové vědecké poznatky dokázaly, že život mimo synchronizaci s těmito biologickými hodinami nejen narušuje spánek, ale činí nás i zranitelnějšími vůči infekcím, obezitě, cukrovce 2. typu, srdečním chorobám, rakovině a duševním onemocněním.

Our histories are important, but the futures we create from them are immensely more crucial. So, how do we learn enough from our pasts to keep moving forward?

The Sanctuaries and Cults of Demeter in Asia Minor and the Islands off Its Western Coast
At least twenty-two sanctuaries of Demeter and Kore in Asia Minor and the islands off the western coast are attested by archaeological evidence. More than 272 epigraphic sources, nearly all of which are translated and discussed in this study, further document the cults of both goddesses in these regions. This monograph is the first study to draw on such a substantial body of material in order to demonstrate the cultic connections between cities in the Greek East and other parts of the Greek world. The archaeological and written sources provide insight into both regional and Pan-Hellenic features of the sanctuaries of Demeter and Kore, including their architectural layouts, the iconography of votive offerings, festivals, rituals, and the development of these practices over time. In assessing these regional and Pan-Hellenic characteristics, the analysis draws on the full range of archaeological and written evidence from across the Greek world. The available evidence indicates that the cults and sanctuaries of Demeter and Kore in the Greek East largely retained Greek characteristics; however, in certain regions, such as Caria, their cults were partially shaped by indigenous religious traditions. Despite Greek and later Roman hegemony, the cult of Demeter in other parts of Asia Minor, beyond western Asia Minor, was unable to supplant the cult of Cybele and other local chthonic fertility deities.
The Paranoid Style in American Politics
The classic and very funny account of the dark side of American politics
'Calm, clear, dispassionate and devastating - and a joy to read' Harper's
'Brilliant and influential … his evisceration of populism has found a new generation of readers' Guardian
'American political life … has served again and again as an arena for uncommonly angry minds'
How can a country be captured by rumours, surreal conspiracy theories and the most brazen of conmen? The historian Richard Hofstadter asked these questions in the 1960s, amid fears of rising extremism in America. Yet his dazzling dissection of the paranoid worldview - a brew of overheated exaggeration, suspicion and perceived victimhood that can derail entire nations - is a lesson for the ages in the seductive politics of the irrational.
In an era where we ourselves feel assailed by endless paranoid public statements it is comforting to read Hofstadter's incisive refusal to see these as something new. In his discussion of famous and obscure untruths, some of which have profoundly impacted American domestic and foreign policy, he provides the antidote for the present day.
'The Paranoid Style in American Politics' was first published as an essay in Harper's Magazine in late 1964 and has been argued over ever since.
A Villa Amore titkai
Légy részese az év legfényűzőbb esküvőjének! Az Amalfi-tengerpart aranyló fényei között, a fényűző Villa Amoréban hamarosan sor kerül az év legpazarabb esküvőjére – az egyetlen gond, hogy a résztvevők közül többen életre szóló titkokat rejtegetnek… Carina gyerekkori szerelméhez, Giorgióhoz készül feleségül menni, és biztos benne, hogy végre révbe ér. A vőlegény első pillantásra tökéletes választásnak tűnik, de kérdés, hogy valóban az a romantikus hős-e, akinek Carina látja…
A koszorúslány, a színésznő Edie a forgatási szüneteket kihasználva repül haza, hogy élete nagy napján a legjobb barátnője mellett legyen. Az öröme azonban nem felhőtlen, mert olyasmit tud, ami Carina egész életét tönkreteheti. Hűség, bűntudat, önámítás és vágy. Ez a regény olyan, mint a nyár az olasz tengerparton: napfényes, szikrázó, és úgy sodor magával, mint a tengeri áramlat. Carol Kirkwood a BBC képernyőjéről ismert médiaszemélyiség, hat nagy sikerű romantikus regény szerzője. A regényírásba viszonylag későn, de tudatosan vágott bele: első romantikus regényét az utazás iránti szenvedélye és a hollywoodi csillogás világa inspirálta. Olyan történeteket szeretne írni, amilyeneket ő maga is szívesen olvasna egy medence partján vagy nyaralás közben: napfényes, egzotikus helyszíneken játszódó, romantikus és titkokkal teli regényeket, amelyek megszínesítik a hétköznapokat.

Pieces of the Night (Deluxe Edition)
*The limited deluxe edition will include designed edges*
I already had a life. A future. A man I'd promised forever to.
But the night I found Chase Rhodes-bleeding, broken, and more lost than I was-everything changed.
I wasn't supposed to let him in. Wasn't supposed to write music with him in secret beneath the moon.
What started as a quiet escape became something unstoppable. Our songs caught fire, and now the whole world knows our names.
Music has a way of pulling the broken together, even when the timing is impossible and the fallout inevitable.
But some hearts don't settle. Some songs were never meant to stay quiet.
Because the night I saved him was only the beginning.
And loving me might be the last risk he'll ever take.
From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Hartmann comes a new angsty, standalone contemporary romance.
