Stíny Kasejovicka 1
Kasejovice jsou malé město ležící na pomezí jižních a západních Čech. Jeho historická zákoutí ukrývají celou řadu zajímavých a zapomenutých příběhů. Kniha Stíny Kasejovicka na ně nahlíží především optikou místních mužů zákona. Čtenář se tak dostane nejen mezi násilníky, zloděje a lidi žijící na okraji společnosti, ale bude i svědkem živelních katastrof, bizarních konfliktů mezi katolíky a protestanty či politického pletichaření na místní radnici. To vše rámují „velké“ dějiny, které do dění na Kasejovicku mnohdy nemilosrdně zasáhnou. V závěrečné části se čtenář seznámí s životními osudy jednotlivých četníků a městských strážníků, v nichž se odráží dramatičnost 20. století. Nahlédne tak mezi železnobrodské odbojáře, bude svědkem poválečných excesů na Rožmitálsku a setká se s operací Státní bezpečnosti, nesoucí krycí název „Akce Lichnice“.
Smrt parašutisty Bohuslava Kouby
Rotný Bohuslav Kouba byl velitelem výsadku BIOSCOP vysazeného po půlnoci na úterý 28. dubna 1942 nedaleko od osady Požáry na Křivoklátsku. Krátce po seskoku se výsadek rozdělil a oba podřízení, četař aspirant Josef Bublík a četař Jan Hrubý následně zahynuli hrdinskou smrtí v pravoslavném chrámu svatého Cyrila a Metoděje v Resslově ulici v Praze spolu s dalšími pěti parašutisty. Rotný Kouba se odebral za účelem navázání kontaktu s odbojáři na četnickou stanici Kutná Hora. Zde jej však před jeho příchodem hledalo gestapo. Poté, co se dostal do bezvýchodné situace, aby nevyzradil své spolupracovníky a neohrozil patnáct přítomných četníků a jejich rodiny, ukončil svůj život požitím letální tablety.
Krkonošští rodáci vzpomínají 6
Krkonoše si lidé často spojují jen s krajinou, která je však i krajinou paměti. Je to svět, do kterého se po staletí otiskovala práce, jazyk, víra, řemeslo i každodenní starosti. A právě proto má smysl chránit vedle přírodních hodnot i paměť místních lidí.
V šestém díle Krkonošští rodáci vzpomínají najdeme životní příběh Franze Brauna z Rýchor, který si jako kluk pamatuje, jak v roce 1938 na jejich louce stavěli čeští vojáci obranné bunkry. Přečtete si muzikantské historky trumpetisty Karla Pičmana, který mimo jiné s kapelou vítal v květnu 1945 Rudou armádu nebo nepříliš veselý odchod rodiny paní Helgy Schulze-Fischer z rodných Vítkovic.
Kniha navazuje na dlouhodobou práci Libora Duška – badatele a autora, který umí dějiny vyprávět tak, aby nezůstaly jen v archivech. Jeho síla je v umění ptát se, naslouchat a zpracovat vzpomínky zpovídaného pamětníka. Zároveň nejde o pouhé vzpomínání. Jeho profesní svět se opírá o poctivou práci s prameny, místem a kontextem.
Open Socrates
Socrates has been hiding in plain sight. We call him the father of Western philosophy, but what exactly are his philosophical views? He is famous for his humility, but readers often find him arrogant and condescending. We parrot his claim that 'the unexamined life is not worth living,' yet take no steps to live examined ones. We know that he was tried, convicted, and executed for 'corrupting the youth,' but freely assign Socratic dialogues to today's youths, to introduce them to philosophy. We've lost sight of what made him so dangerous. In Open Socrates, acclaimed philosopher Agnes Callard recovers the radical energy at the centre of Socrates' thought and shows why it is still the way to a good life.
Callard draws our attention to Socrates' startling discovery that we don't know how to ask ourselves the most important questions- about how we should live, and how we might change. Before a person even has a chance to reflect, their bodily desires or the forces of social conformity have already answered on their behalf. To ask the most important questions, we need help. Callard argues that the true ambition of the famous "Socratic method" is to reveal what one human being can be to another. You can use another person in many ways-for survival, for pleasure, for comfort- but you are engaging them to the fullest when you call on them to help answer your questions and challenge your answers.
Here Callard shows that Socrates' method allows us to make progress in thinking about how to manage romantic love, how to confront one's own death, and how to approach politics. In the process, she gives us nothing less than a new ethics to live by.
K-POP - Forradalom!
Candace Park élete gyökeresen megváltozott – gyakornokból debütálás előtt álló idollá vált, lépteit rajongók és kamerák követik. Barátjával, Jongbével ők a K-pop-világ álompárja, új lányegyüttese, a The Girls sikere garantált. Ráadásul a SAY Entertainment új vezetősége is helyes irányba tart: ahelyett, hogy beszabályozná, támogatja a lányokat. A rajongók pedig alig várják, hogy kedvenceik végre berobbanjanak.
Mi történik azonban, ha a rekordokat döntögető debütálás előkészületei közben kiderül, talán mégsem következett be az áhított változás? Ha egyszer csak felbukkan egy rivális együttes, amelynek tagjai hitelesebben képviselik azt az üzenetet, ami Candace-t K-pop-harcossá tette? Ha a hírnév egyre messzebb és messzebb sodorja nemcsak a szeretteitől, hanem önmagától is?
A közvélemény és a K-pop-ipar egyszer a világ tetejére repítette, most azonban a legmélyebb gödörbe taszítja. Mit lép Candace Park: feladja az álmát vagy forradalmat robbant ki?
Když je spolkly vlny
První pravidlo záchrany zní: Nezvyšuj počet obětí. Grace právě potkala nejhorší noční můra každého učitele. Po náročném dni v australské divočině stojí na břehu rozbouřeného oceánu a pozoruje, jak tři studenty unáší silné proudy na otevřené moře.
Během několikadenní exkurze do australské divočiny, kde se středoškoláci seznamují s přežitím daleko od civilizace, dostane skupina náctiletých chlapců nápad: rozhodnou se nenápadně uniknout pozornosti pedagogů a zaplavat si v oceánu. Ve chvíli, kdy je učitelka Grace spatří, jsou již daleko od břehu a Grace jako záchranářka ví, že pomoci jim by znamenalo riskovat vlastní život. Má zůstat na břehu, nebo se pokusit o nemožné a téměř jistě zahynout v předem prohraném boji?
V chaosu následujících dnů se Grace musí postavit truchlícím rodičům a na povrch začnou vyplouvat nové skutečnosti. Kdo chlapcům našeptal smrtící dobrodružství? Kdo může za jejich smrt? Komu může Grace ještě věřit?
Strhující psychologický thriller z australského pobřeží vznikl na základě osobní zkušenosti autora, středoškolského lektora pobytů ve volné přírodě a dobrovolného záchranáře.

The Dream
One of the greatest football managers of our time tells the story of his illustrious career through his record-breaking seven Champions League wins. Featuring interviews with Jude Bellingham, Paolo Maldini, Luka Modric and Davide Ancelotti.
Carlo Ancelotti has won domestic titles in all of Europe's top five leagues, with teams including AC Milan, Juventus, Paris St Germain, Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Real Madrid.
Yet the accolade that truly sets him apart from his contemporaries is his track record in the Champions League. As a player, Ancelotti lifted the trophy twice; as a manager he brought Champions League glory to his teams a remarkable five times.
As he embarks on an exciting new era of his career as the manager of Brazil, Ancelotti reflects on his love of the world’s most sought-after title. The Dream is a rich football memoir that takes you inside the mind of a winner. From dreaming of the trophy as a child, to the key games, players and moments of each campaign, we build a unique sense of a great tactician at work, as well as an intimate portrait of club football’s greatest competition.
