No-Nonsense Skincare
A guide to smart skincare made simple—for every body and at every age. Skincare isn't one-size-fits-all—but you wouldn't know that from the overwhelming tide of product claims, influencer advice, and social media trends. In No-Nonsense Skincare, board-certified dermatologist Erum Ilyas, MD, cuts through the noise with trusted guidance for every part of the body and every stage of life. Whether you're navigating teenage breakouts, pregnancy skin changes, or dryness in your 60s, this book offers practical, evidence-based strategies to care for your skin with clarity and confidence. This essential guidebook explains how to: • Build a skincare routine that works for you by learning how to choose and use products based on your skin's changing needs, not marketing labels. • Demystify skincare myths and understand the truth behind buzzwords like "clean beauty," "skin type," and "anti-aging."• Recognize misleading marketing, vague claims, unrealistic expectations, and overhyped ingredients before they influence your decisions. • Understand what products can and can't do so that you can identify when you're buying real treatment—and when you're paying for ineffective products. • Save time and money by creating a streamlined routine that's effective without being excessive. Readers will learn how to decode marketing buzzwords, make sense of ingredients, and avoid common traps and dangerous trends. Through easy-to-follow routines, product insights, and scientific context, the book empowers readers to create skincare plans that are realistic, affordable, and customized to their own needs. From head to toe, and from infancy to older age, this guide offers a dermatologist's honest insight on how to care for your skin without getting lost in the hype.
A Letter from the Lonesome Shore
'An underwater treasure-chest to be slowly unpacked, full of things I adore: nosy and loving families, epistolary romance, gorgeous worldbuilding, and anxious scholars doing their best to meet the world with kindness and curiosity' Freya Marske, author of A Marvellous LightThe charming conclusion to the Sunken Archive duology, a heart-warming magical academia fantasy filled with underwater cities, romance of manners and found family, perfect for fans of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries.

When their journey through the Structure in E.'s garden strands them in a peculiar society preoccupied with the pleasures and perils of knowledge, E. and Henerey come to accept--and, more surprisingly still, embrace--the fact that they may never return home. A year and a half later, Sophy and Vyerin finally discover one of the elusive Entries that will help them seek their siblings. As the group's efforts bring them closer to E. and Henerey, an ancient, cosmic threat also draws near. . .

I loved it.' Louisa Morgan, author of A Secret History of Witches 'A Letter to the Luminous Deep is like nothing I've read before. The heartfelt intimacy of the epistolary narrative, juxtaposed with the magnificent oceanic world-building, results in a novel that is at once deeply human and mind-bogglingly imaginative. Both the setting and the story are exquisite, but it was the lovingly crafted voices of the characters that kept me hooked from beginning to end' Megan Bannen, author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy

Katechizmus Katolíckej cirkvi
Svojím obsahom a určením sa KKC radí medzi tzv. veľké a univerzálne katechizmy. Verne a organicky podáva učenie Svätého písma a živej tradície Cirkvi, autentického učiteľského úradu, ako aj duchovné dedičstvo otcov, učiteľov, svätcov a svätíc Cirkvi. Berie do úvahy náukové vyhlásenia, ktoré Duch Svätý v priebehu stáročí vnukol Cirkvi, a pomáha osvecovať nové situácie a problémy, ktoré sa v minulosti neobjavili. KKC, podobne ako Tridentský katechizmus, sa delí na štyri časti, ktoré Ján Pavol II. prirovnal „k štyrom vetám veľkej symfónie“: 1. Vyznanie viery (v čo Cirkev verí), 2. Slávenie kresťanského tajomstva (sviatosti), 3. Život v Kristovi (život v Duchu a Božie prikázania), 4. Kresťanská modlitba (čo a ako sa Cirkev modlí). Impulz na jeho zostavenie vznikol pri príležitosti spomienky na 20. výročie skončenia koncilu, keď Ján Pavol II. dňa 25. januára 1985 zvolal mimoriadne zasadnutie Biskupskej synody, kde synodálni otcovia vyjadrili želanie, aby sa pripravil koncept katechizmu katolíckeho učenia, ktorý by bol orientačným bodom pre miestne katechizmy. Kompendium katolíckej viery, ktoré vzniklo na základe požiadavky biskupov na ich mimoriadnom zhromaždení, Ján Pavol II. považoval za najzrelšie a najbohatšie ovocie koncilového učenia.
Inconceivable
"After every knock, no matter how severe, I would find a renewed strength to try again. And again."Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women worldwide, yet on average it takes 8 years to get a diagnosis. Why? Because the medical profession regularly dismiss women's pain as 'normal'. In this intimate, heartfelt memoir, we follow Sinead's journey with endometriosis, through her struggles with pain, miscarriage, medical gaslighting, heartbreak, misdiagnosis, botched procedures, betrayal, and numerous treatments, before she finally found her happy ending - her inconceivable future. For women who have suffered debilitating pain and not been listened to; for women facing fertility struggles; for women who have been betrayed and had their hearts broken, Inconceivable is an uplifting and empowering reminder that we are not alone, and that once we put ourselves and our own needs first, wondrous things can happen. Above all, this is a story of hope through despair; about what is possible if you keep pushing, keep persevering, and never give up.
Red Valkyries
Red Valkyries explores the history of socialist feminism in Eastern Europe, following the lives and careers of five prominent women active in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: the aristocratic Bolshevik Alexandra Kollontai; the radical pedagogue Nadezhda Krupskaya; the polyamorous firebrand Inessa Armand; the deadly sniper Lyudmila Pavlichenko; and the partisan turned scientist turned global women's activist Elena Lagadinova. In brief conversational chapters, Kristen Ghodsee renders the big ideas of socialist feminism accessible to those newly inspired by the emancipatory politics of insurgent left feminist movements around the globe.
Robert Pinsky: The First Two Books of Poems
The remarkable first two books of poetry by the Pulitzer Prize finalist and former U.S. poet laureate—now combined in a single volume with a new preface by the authorAward-winning poet Robert Pinsky’s first two collections—Sadness And Happiness and An Explanation of America—announced the arrival of a major new voice in American poetry. Now, these acclaimed books are presented together in a single volume featuring a new preface by the author, introducing a new generation of readers to the groundbreaking early work of a beloved poet. Sadness And Happiness explores everyday subjects such as the streets and oceanfront of Pinsky’s hometown of Long Branch, New Jersey, while the long title poem of An Explanation of America examines personal and national myths as it transports readers across the country.
George Washington and Frederick the Great
How Frederick the Great and George Washington embody the competition between liberal democracy and authoritarianismBoth Frederick the Great and George Washington saw themselves as model rulers exemplifying different modes of enlightened governance. Frederick, absolute ruler of Prussia, styled himself as the embodiment of “enlightenment from above”; Washington, as the first president of the United States, held himself accountable to Congress, with the power of the presidency subject to checks and balances. In this unique study, Jürgen Overhoff traces the parallel lives of two of the most important and influential statesmen of the eighteenth century, from their early years to their ascension to political power and their historical legacies. Overhoff considers the significance of each man not only in the context of his own country but in the larger geopolitical space of Atlantic history. Overhoff describes how Washington admired Frederick’s actions during the Seven Years’ War (also known as the French and Indian War) in the 1750s, when Frederick allied with the British and North Americans. Later, Frederick was impressed by Washington’s leadership of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. Prussia and the United States even signed a friendship treaty after the war. But, as Overhoff shows, the two men had very different ideas about the principles of the Enlightenment, monarchy, and democracy. Despite his Enlightenment bona fides, Frederick ruled Prussia by edict and decree, always with the goal of maintaining his own power. Washington famously stepped down after two terms in office. Overhoff argues convincingly that the political trajectories of Frederick and Washington shed light on the contemporary clash between authoritarianism and democracy.
