Archaeological Excavations at Irmis Rka: An Investigation of a Multi-Layered Settlement in Southwest Georgia
This volume presents the results of the 2020 season excavations conducted by the Georgian National Museum at the multi-layered settlement of Irmis Rka, located in the Samtskhe-Javakheti province in southwest Georgia. Excavations on the site have confirmed the presence of pits and domestic architecture from the Early Bronze Age Kura-Araxes Culture, as well as deposits of the subsequent Bedeni Culture, along with abundant related materials. The site reveals signs of occupation during the Late Bronze-Early Iron Age, with evidence of fortification and various artefacts. Additionally, medieval activities have been documented. The site demonstrates the full evolution of the Kura-Araxes tradition, offering perspectives to illustrate its gradual changes and development. One of the site's most significant aspects is the presence of the Bedeni culture, marking its first appearance in this area. While excavations at Irmis Rka are ongoing, the results presented here contribute new data to a wide range of discussions.

The Inheritance of Loss
High in the Himalayas sits a dilapidated mansion, home to three people, each dreaming of another time.
The judge, broken by a world too messy for justice, is haunted by his past. His orphaned granddaughter has fallen in love with her handsome tutor, despite their different backgrounds and ideals. The cook's heart is with his son, who is working in a New York restaurant, mingling with an underclass from all over the globe as he seeks somewhere to call home.
Around the house swirl the forces of revolution and change. Civil unrest is making itself felt, stirring up inner conflicts as powerful as those dividing the community, pitting the past against the present, nationalism against love, a small place against the troubles of a big world.
Honey in the Wound
A powerful, unforgettable debut novel for fans of PACHINKO and HOMEGOING
Spanning the 20th century, Honey in the Wound follows a mysteriously gifted lineage of Korean women as they are displaced across Asia by Japanese imperialism. At this novel's heart is Young-Ja, whose family is killed by Japanese soldiers. Her magical gift - the ability to infuse her cooking with her feelings: love, peace, delight - shifts into something far more powerful as her sorrow and anger seep into her confections.
When her talent is noticed by a Korean resistance fighter, she is taken to Manchuria and becomes enmeshed in a network of spies at a teahouse favoured by Japanese officials. Haunted at every turn by the spectre of Japanese soldiers, Young-Ja must learn to persevere, even against the brutality of the Imperial Army.
With spellbinding intergenerational sweep and atmospheric magical realism, Honey in the Wound explores the ways colonialism forces one family to transform and ultimately survive.
Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office
We've leaned in, we've girl bossed, we've untamed, and it's still challenging to be a woman at work. Though the workplace looks different than it did twenty years ago, women still face considerable challenges that men do not.
In this new 3rd edition of The New York Times bestseller Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office, Dr. Lois P. Frankel teaches you how to reject the "nice girl" mentality, which manifests as a distinctive set of behaviors learned in girlhood that ultimately sabotage you as an adult, and still exists in today's modern workplace. Dr. Frankel provides tools and guidance for eliminating these unconscious mistakes that could be holding you back in your career. Mistakes such as:
• Mistake #4: Believing Negative Self-Talk. Counter negative messages with positive ones.
• Mistake #26: Fear of Coming Across too Strong. Don't dumb down, shut down, or tone down--be assertive!
• Mistake #55: Poor Boundaries. If you're going to work from home, set boundaries.
• Mistake #85: Doing Instead of Leading. Picking up others' slack becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
You have the power to take control of your career without being controlling, to speak your mind while still being respected, and to chase your ambitions without fear or shame.
Nauč nás modliť sa - modrá
Modlitebník Nauč nás modliť sa prináša svieži pohľad na detskú modlitbu. Nejde o zbierku zaužívaných textov, ktoré sa opakujú celé generácie, ale o výber nových, aktuálnych a deťom blízkych modlitieb, ktoré oslovujú dnešného prvoprijímajúceho kresťana.
Každá tematická časť je uvedená krátkym, zrozumiteľným textom, ktorý deťom pomáha pochopiť, kedy a prečo sa môžu modliť – bez zbytočného moralizovania, jednoducho a prirodzene. Modlitby sú písané jazykom, ktorému deti rozumejú, a mnohé z nich vznikli priamo z ich vlastných slov a skúseností.
Modlitebník zároveň ponúka aj základné a prehľadne spracované časti formácie viery: pobožnosť krížovej cesty, ruženec, liturgiu svätej omše, prípravu na prvé sväté prijímanie formou otázok a odpovedí, prípravu na sviatosť pokánia, ako aj pobožnosť deviatich prvých piatkov. Vďaka tomu je vhodnou pomôckou pre farskú katechézu a prácu s deťmi v období prípravy na sviatosti.
Táto kniha chce deti povzbudiť, aby sa nebáli hovoriť s Bohom vlastnými slovami – úprimne, otvorene a tak, ako to cítia. Ukazuje im, že modlitba nemusí byť naučená naspamäť, ale môže byť živým rozhovorom, v ktorom môžu Bohu povedať všetko: radosť, obavy aj vďačnosť. Zároveň ich vedie k tomu, aby si vytvárali vlastný vzťah k modlitbe ako prirodzenej súčasti každého dňa.
Vydané v spolupráci s Liturgickým inštitútom v Košiciach a Liturgickou komisiou KBS.

The Tempest Blade - The Bridge Kingdom 6
In the searing finale to the iconic Bridge Kingdom series, the battle for Ithicana comes to an epic conclusion-from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Fate Inked in Blood.
A fugitive on the run, Ahnna has one goal: return to Ithicana with warning of the greatest threat her homeland has ever faced. But the man who broke her heart is hunting at her heels, and James wants more than justice. He wants revenge.
To prove his loyalty to his family, James ventures into dangerous territory to capture his father's killer. But the longer he follows Ahnna's trail, the more his certainty of her guilt is tested-and the more the passion they once shared reignites.
As war brews, Ahnna and James discover that the real enemy isn't each other. With their loyalties on opposing sides of the battle to come, James and Ahnna must choose where their hearts lie: on the battlefield, or in each other's arms.

Ballot
Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. Ballot examines the psychological, cultural, and political significance of voting in an increasingly anti-voting climate. Armed with her personal experiences as a poll worker, electoral organizer, and activist, Anjali Enjeti unspools a timely narrative about the precarious state of the ballot during one of the most tumultuous political eras in US history, and recounts the astonishing events leading up to the 2024 presidential election. Enjeti lays out the growing challenges for voters in battleground states, where rightwing legislatures have introduced staggering numbers of voter suppression bills and redrawn district lines, all to disenfranchise as many Black and other marginalized voters as possible. As her account of the history and stakes of election integrity shows, the aftershocks of the Capitol insurrection on January 6, 2021 have manifested most egregiously on the four corners of the ballot.
Ocean Explorer
Dive to the depths of our oceans and spot over 150 incredible sea creatures in this search-and-find book by marine biologist Carlee Jackson.

Vibrant illustrations by Hannah Abbo make for beautiful underwater scenes. As kids pore over the details, they'll dive deeper and deeper within our oceans and discover habitats from around the world. Will they be able to spot the sea turtle hatchlings making a dash for the sea? Or the nurse shark having a snooze in the coral reef? How about the narwhals peeking through ice in the Arctic?

The Great British River
From sparkling springs and babbling brooks to urban canals and muddy estuaries, discover the fascinating journey of our rivers and the wildlife that calls them home. Our rivers are home to some of Britain's most iconic species, including brown trout, mayfly, kingfisher and otter, and for centuries they have provided us with a place to explore and relax. Not only do they provide a habitat for wildlife, they're also a crucial resource for drinking water, farming and transportation. However, a combination of relentless pollution, failing water management and climate change have had a devastating effect. There are currently no rivers in the UK with a ‘good’ ecological status, threatening the species that depend on them to survive. In The Great British River, freshwater specialist Jack Perks explores the fundamentals of our rivers: the habitats they supply, how they transform on the journey from source to estuary, and why certain species are suited to them. Discover ways to enjoy your local waterways and wildlife, as well as what can be done to help protect them. Beautifully illustrated with colour photography of some of our most vital rivers and the species that live in and around them, this accessible book is a celebration of the British river, and a call to action to conserve this precious habitat.

The Golf 100
So, who's the best of 'em all? Tiger Woods? Jack Nicklaus? Bobby Jones? Ben Hogan? Golf fans will disagree until the end of time, but one thing is certain: For well over 100 years, the sport has provided its share of spectacular careers and indelible moments. And what about fan favorites such as Phil Mickelson, Nancy Lopez, and Lee Trevino? Where do they rank on the list? Or modern players like Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Xander Schauffele, Jordan Spieth, Nelly Korda, and Justin Thomas. Did they make the final cut-and if so, where?
In a joyride through golf history itself, New York Times bestselling author Michael Arkush establishes a ranking system that places a heavy emphasis on the game's major championships and profiles the most accomplished and impactful golfers ever-men and women, known and unknown. Arkush captures the flair, as well as the flaws, of athletes who are intensely competitive, funny, peculiar, or larger-than-life. Crafted from hundreds of interviews and longtime relationships developed over a quarter century, The Golf 100 is an immensely entertaining read.
