Neříkej, že učíš?!
Neříkej, že učíš!? – věta, kterou většina učitelů a učitelek důvěrně zná. Ten zvláštní údiv okolí, že se někdo rozhodl svůj čas, srdce a hlavu věnovat sborovnám, třídnicím a hlučícím dětem. Nenechte se ale zmást, tohle není čtení o osnovách. Je o osobnostech, které vás strhnou natolik, že s nimi budete chtít strávit celý večer, i kdybyste se o školství vůbec nezajímali.
Deset osobních rozhovorů a další desítky postřehů od vyučujících z celého Česka odkrývají svět, který mnohdy zůstává za zavřenými dveřmi sboroven. O strachu ze selhání, hledání vlastní cesty, vyhoření, ale také o momentech, které vracejí smysl všemu, co děláte. Nejsou to příběhy osamělých nadšenců. Je to důkaz, že u nás roste silná komunita lidí, kteří umí učit a nebojí se o tom mluvit.
Všichni, s nimiž se v knize setkáte, patří mezi finalistky a finalisty ceny Global Teacher Prize Czech Republic.
Unsingle
Stop waiting for luck and start building a skill. From the "scientific Carrie Bradshaw" and founder of Renew Breakup Bootcamp comes a revolutionary, psychology-based roadmap to ending dating frustration and finding a partnership that actually sticks. If you feel like you’re stuck in a loop of "Groundhog Day" dates, stalled situationships, or "spark" that leads nowhere, you don’t need more apps—you need a better system. Relationship expert Amy Chan has helped thousands of singles transform their love lives by identifying one hard truth: Most people aren't failing at love because of their personality; they're failing because they're stuck in outdated patterns. In Unsingle, Chan introduces the Dating Funnel framework—a step-by-step strategy that pinpoints exactly where you are getting stuck and how to fix it. Blending neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and her signature "Chief Heart Hacker" wit, Chan provides the tools to move from casual chemistry to committed compatibility. Inside, you’ll discover:The Dating Funnel: A practical system to filter for quality matches and go from "situationship" to serious partnership. Chemistry vs. Compatibility: Why "instant sparks" are often red flags and how to look for the traits that actually predict a healthy, lasting future. Pattern Interruption: How to identify the subconscious attachment styles and emotional blocks that keep you dating the same (wrong) person. The "Character Game": Why dating is a personality game, but maintaining a relationship is a character game—and how to master both. Whether you are healing from a past breakup or ready to navigate the modern dating world with fresh eyes, Unsingle is your wake-up call. It’s time to stop settling for romantic chaos and start building the love you truly deserve. "Amy Chan gets it. She cuts through the nonsense and gives you the real talk about love.If you want to stop dating like you're stuck in Groundhog Day, read this book." —John Kim, LMFT, author of The Angry Therapist

Street Fighter
My life has been an adventure from my early years in a caravan to what looks like a stunning finale. I’ve experienced lots of success and some failures along the way and have had the good fortune to meet many amazing characters across the globe. I was encouraged by my family to recount some of the adventures I have had, which includes a near death experience on a business trip in Syria early on when my close friend was executed and I was released. This was my life-changing moment. The opencast coal industry is where I made my fortune, giving me money enough to do many other things, including corporate takeovers, building and running businesses internationally, particularly in the Falkland Islands, Middle East and Africa. Investing in the world of performance cars and dealing with the mercurial characters for many years on the inside of Formula 1 racing. Always challenging and nothing easy, but a great way to spend a life, with a few lessons learnt to be passed on to the next generation of entrepreneurs.
The Challenge of the Future
In an era of instability, how do we build a better futur? e live in a time of unprecedented technological change and uncertainty, from AI to transhumanism. Humankind is faced with the question of what the future will be like and – more burningly – should be like. We confront increasing dangers from geopolitical instability, war and the climate crisis that threaten to render these developments either irrelevant or deadly. The answer can’t just be to call a halt. A. C. Grayling asks the question no one else is asking. What do we wish to keep from yesterday that will help us decide today what we want and don't want tomorrow. How we might navigate the complexities to build a fairer, more equal, sustainable future.
Backstage Confidential
Backstage Confidential lifts the curtain on West End Theatre from a viewpoint rarely heard: the wings. Beginning his career at seventeen, Eden Phillips rose to become London’s youngest head flyman before veering into acting, writing and publishing — yet always remained an observer of the theatre’s hidden world. With warmth and wit, he evokes backstage work in the 1960s and ’70s: rigging sets, working the flys, operating revolves and tackling the countless unseen tasks that keep a show running. Along the way he encounters an array of theatrical greats, from Sir Noël Coward, Sir John Gielgud and Dame Judi Dench to directors Hal Prince and Harold Pinter. A lively, humorous and affectionate insider’s glimpse into a golden age of British theatre.
Sublimation
What would you sacrifice for a different life?
When you emigrate, you leave a version of yourself behind. Literally. One instance crosses the border; the other instance stays trapped behind it.
Some instances keep in touch, call each other daily, synchronize their lives and minds in the hopes of reintegrating and resuming a life as one person. Other instances, like Soyoung Rose Kang, leave home at age ten and never speak to their other selves again.
With a life of her own in New York, Rose never imagined she’d return to Korea. Then her grandfather dies and Soyoung, her Korean instance, summons her home for the funeral. But Soyoung’s motives aren’t as innocent as Rose imagined, and the consequences of Rose’s return to Seoul will change her forever.
Sublimation is a story of doppelgängers and corporate intrigue, heartbreak and betrayal. Nebula Award-winning author Isabel J. Kim has written an immigrant tale like no other, capturing the longing for another life and twisting it into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse.
Kylian Mbappe - The Definitive Biography
'Only the second teenager to have scored a goal in a World Cup Final! Welcome to the club - it's great to have some company!' Pelé
This was the praise lauded upon Kylian Mbappé who, at just 19 years of age, led France to triumph at the 2018 World Cup. As golden confetti rained down, millions across the globe watched as the young man kissed the iconic trophy; the heir to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the best footballer in the world had announced himself. It was his crowning moment.
In Kylian Mbappé: The Definitive Biography, Julien Laurens, the world's leading French football journalist, paints a vivid portrait of Mbappé's meteoric rise to global stardom. After a decade covering Kylian's career, Julien has had unprecedented access to the player's friends, coaches and teammates past and present. Exploring Mbappé's humble upbringing in the suburbs of Paris and schooling at the famed Clairefontaine academy, his peerless rise with AS Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain, as well as his dream move to Real Madrid where his career has reached new heights, this extensive biography crafts an intimate account of Kylian's life.
Julien takes us into the inner workings of Mbappé's psyche, as we witness how becoming a world superstar at just 19 affected the young Parisian. From the complex relationship he had with his boyhood club and its hierarchy to valiantly losing against Lionel Messi's Argentina in the 2022 World Cup Final, and becoming the new face of Real Madrid's galácticos, Julien shows us how the Mbappé that stars for club and country today is unrecognisable from the one who won the World Cup with France in 2018.

Speed
Prepare to view the world through a new lens - SPEED - a groundbreaking exploration that challenges your perceptions of life's driving force, from the internationally bestselling author
'There is perhaps no other academic who paints pictures with numbers like Smil' Guardian
In a world that feels like it's moving faster than ever, Smil examines how our relentless pursuit of speed - in areas such as production, travel and communication - shapes not only our technological landscape but also our social and environmental realities. And through engaging anecdotes and striking statistics, Smil challenges the assumption that faster is always better.
He invites readers to reconsider the implications of our collective obsession with speed, and its intricate relationship with nature and innovation. For example, he highlights the surprising fact that erosion can actually accelerate mountain growth, and he points out that the rapid adoption of mobile phones - achieving 90 per cent penetration in just nineteen years - reflects historical patterns of technological adoption, suggesting that our world may not be moving significantly faster than in the past.
Whether exploring the tiny mites that can traverse 300 times their body length in a second or the societal impacts of high-frequency trading, Speed invites readers to engage in a more balanced conversation about the role of speed in our lives, in an age defined by haste.
Az Ex-terápia
Két gyerek, egy válás, nulla terv.
És egy srác, aki túl jól néz ki ahhoz, hogy csak barát legyen.
Laney Williamsnek három dologra lenne most sürgősen szüksége: több kávéra, kevesebb káoszra és egy kis önbizalomra.
A szerelem? Na, az biztosan nincs a listán.
Elvált. Kétgyerekes, önálló nő, aki épp próbálja kitalálni, hogyan is kell újrakezdeni az életet harminc felett – zongorával, gyerekekkel és egy rakás elfojtott ábránddal.
Amikor ideiglenesen beköltözik a gyerekkori legjobb barátnője lakásába, nem számít rá, hogy ott lakik Claire öccse is. A jóképű, tetovált, sokkal fiatalabb Aiden. Aki ráadásul valami egészen aggasztót csinál: figyel rá.
Segít neki. És… flörtöl? Megállapodnak, hogy csak rebound kapcsolat lesznek egymásnak. De mikor nem sül el jól egy ilyen zseniális ötlet?
Mi baj lehet abból, ha egy tetovált, jóképű pasival osztod meg a kanapét? (Spoiler: elég sok.)

Zakázaná láska
Josie Spencerová je rozhodnutá využít svůj nový začátek v New Yorku naplno. Radost jí dělají hlavně malé věci – dobrá pizza, skvělá hudba, béčkové filmy a pozorování světa skrze objektiv fotoaparátu. Láska? Ta pro ni zrovna není prioritou.

Josie tak stojí před rozhodnutím: udržet si tvrdě vydřenou práci snů nebo se vzdát všeho kvůli muži, kterému nedokáže odolat. Protože zamilovat se do Graysona Harlowa znamená riskovat mnohem více než jen zlomené srdce...

Through the Lens of Anthroposophy
What relevance do anthroposophy and the teachings of Rudolf Steiner have for the world today? Spiritual thinker Wolfgang Müller was initially sceptical that anthroposophy had any contemporary value. It wasn't until many years after his first encounter with the challenging and sometimes controversial worldview that a closer study of Steiner's writings prompted him to make a radical reappraisal. In this thought-provoking book, Müller explains how anthroposophy, far from being out of touch with the modern world, has important contributions to make towards our understanding of contemporary life. He shows, for example, how anthroposophy builds on the insights of natural science to explore the inner life of human beings, and how its progressive view of human spiritual development can help us better understand the world's religions. He looks at anthroposophy's approach to medicine, which takes into account both the physical and spiritual aspects of human beings, and goes on to consider Steiner's social and political ideas, which seek to bring our public spheres of culture, politics and economics into greater balance. Finally, Müller explores accusations of racism that have been made against Steiner in recent years and shows how they are fundamentally at odds with Steiner's view of a truly universal humanity. This book offers a balanced and well-researched contemporary perspective on anthroposophy from a former sceptic and will be of value to anyone looking for alternative ways of understanding our world.

Freedom Round the Globe
A fresh and surprising history that reckons with a defining global moment on its 250th anniversary: The American Revolution.
In this authoritative revisionist history, prize-winning historian Sarah M. S. Pearsall restores the shock, drama and world-altering flux of 1776, revealing how the fires of change that sparked the American Revolution were igniting all around the world. From St. Kitts to Kolkata, Ghana to Guangzhou, all kinds of people, not just the men declaring independence in Philadelphia, asserted their rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the Revolution, Freedom Round the Globe tells a story the world needs to hear, of the fraught origins of a nation that by turns perplexes, fascinates and horrifies us. It is a story of global transformation and revolutionary fervour, of triumph as well as tragedy, and of the insurgents, lovers, and dreamers who dared to imagine better societies.
