Hříšné Břeclavsko - 137 kriminálních případů z první republiky
Jak vypadala odvrácená tvář Břeclavska za první republiky? Kniha vás zavede do éry, kdy novináři „zuřivě“ pásli po každé senzaci a černá kronika byla pro tehdejší čtenáře vyhledávaným zdrojem napětí i informací. Naleznete zde výběr nejzajímavějších kriminálních případů, které kdysi hýbaly veřejným míněním. Vydejte se do doby, kdy místní galerka utrácela lup v proslulém baru Arco, u Lanžhota se riskovalo při pašování rumu a v Hruškách se pálil nelegální líh. Poznejte skutečné příběhy hříchu, vášně a zločinu!
Kdo umlčel skály?
Mladý policista Alexandr Jareš přežil podivnou událost a místo kariéry mu zůstaly jen zdravotní a psychické následky. Nečekaně však dostává šanci u kriminálky právě ve chvíli, kdy Československem otřesou záhadné výbuchy a zmizí šéf vyšetřovatelů. Ve skalách u Hřenska jsou navíc nalezeni tři mrtví trampové, jejichž případ je podezřele rychle zameten pod koberec. Jareš se však rozhodne pátrat dál – navzdory režimu i vlastním démonům.
Láskou nemocná
První rok rezidentury je peklo. Pro Grace Roseovou, talentovanou mladou gynekoložku, začíná ještě hůř – mezi kolegy se roznese fáma, že se do prestižního programu dostala přes postel. Grace se brání, ale drby se šíří rychleji než pravda. Pak je tu Julian Santini… arogantní a zatraceně přitažlivý kolega, který jí od první chvíle leze na nervy. Během společných směn se ale napětí pozvolna mění v přitažlivost a hranice mezi nenávistí a láskou se rozplývá. Některé city se totiž nedají potlačit. Ani předepsat.
The Woman Who Wasn't There
Bestselling crime author Marian Lane is surrounded by adoring readers when she learns that her husband Dane is dead.
Marian returns home in shock to discover a stranger on her doorstep. A woman who not only claims she's Marian's biggest fan but says that she comforted Dane in his final moments.
At first, this woman, Mary, is a source of comfort. Until she admits Dane confessed a secret. One she can't quite remember; one Marian is desperate to learn.
But Mary is a storyteller too. And though Marian knows every twist in the genre, she won't see this one coming . . .
Not That Kind of Proposal
Gracie Holland can plan the perfect Happily Ever After-unless it's her own. After a soul-flattening breakup, she has rebuilt her life planning weddings at Larkwood-an ivy-covered estate where she also lives. But when her beloved boss passes away, Gracie suddenly finds herself pitted against a love-allergic divorce lawyer who is determined to sell both her place of work, and her home.
Jude Larkwood cleans up romantic disasters for a living, so he has no intention of keeping Larkwood as a wedding venue, but there's just one problem: his Nana may have left Jude the estate, but she's left the guest cottage to the maddeningly romantic wedding planner, who has somehow turned his mind into her permanent residence.
So, when Gracie proposes that he help her plan her ex's shotgun wedding to prove Larkwood is worth saving, he agrees, but if she fails to convince him by the big day, she'll sell him her cottage. As bickering and cake tastings turn into late-night confessions, Gracie and Jude find themselves breaking every vow not to fall for each other...
Reklama na štěstí
Pětatřicetiletá Iveta od matky pořád slyší, že by měla založit rodinu, a v reklamní agentuře se místo povýšení dočká přehnaně ambiciózního kolegy. Chce to změnu, a tak si pořídí domek v malebném městečku. Ten ovšem nutně potřebuje rekonstrukci. Ivetu navíc vyčerpávají rodinné i pracovní intriky a pochopení nachází jen u svých kamarádek. Vše se však změní, když jí napíše tajemný stříbrotepec Adrian. Iveta by ráda prožila opravdovou lásku, ale život se nedá naplánovat jako reklamní kampaň.
Fast Track
Sleek, comfortable, accessible, and sustainable, high-speed rail is the future.
Since Japan's Bullet Train first sped down the track in the sixties, it has become a global icon, as famous for its punctuality as for its speed.
The French TGV, or Train á Grande Vitesse, established a template that was soon followed across Europe, in Italy, Germany and Spain
But with a remarkable 30,000 miles of track built in fewer than twenty years China has become the world leader.
Now with lines built or planned in over twenty countries, high speed rail has changed the world and, faced with the environmental cost of cars and air travel, might help save it.
Two countries, both pioneers of rail travel, have been conspicuously left behind, though. The UK, which before the Second World War built record-breaking high-speed trains, has just sixty-eight miles of high-speed line and the unfolding embarrassment of HS2, while the United States has no genuine high-speed line at all. How can this be?
In Fast Track, Christian Wolmar, our leading railway writer, tells the story of the irresistible rise of high-speed rail around the world for the first time. From the magnificence of Britain's steam-engined Mallard to a 250 mile per hour future, this is a story of big personalities, bold decisions, cutting edge technology, and soaring ambition.
All aboard!
Meet the Neighbors
'At last, a sensible and penetrating look at the possibility of life on Mars ... Bravo to Benner, one of the world's most accomplished chemists, for putting the possibility of extant Martian life back on the scientific agenda'
Paul Davies, author of Quantum 2.0
Are we alone in the universe?
Mars has always seemed where we were likeliest to find the answer. Yet, since the Viking landers touched down in 1976, no mission has returned to the Martian surface to search directly for life living there now. Instead we're searching the moons of outer planets, or the atmospheres of planets many light years away.
In Meet the Neighbors, pioneering astrobiochemist Steven A. Benner argues that this was a historic mistake. That we're looking in the wrong place. Drawing on the Viking archive and explaining how the scientific process failed, he re-examines the mission that first searched for extant Martian life and makes the provocative case that its results were misunderstood. In the decades that have followed, Mars science has focused on water, geology and past habitability, while the most direct question - is anything alive on Mars today? - has been pushed aside.
Benner shows why Mars remains the most accessible place to discover a second origin of life, and why finding even microbial organisms there would transform our understanding of our place in the cosmos. He also asks a deeper question: what counts as life in the first place? From the chemistry that may give rise to living systems to "agnostic" tools capable of detecting unfamiliar biology, he lays out a bold and practical blueprint for the next phase of exploration.
At once a scientific detective story, a challenge to decades of orthodoxy, and a lucid guide to one of humanity's biggest questions, Meet the Neighbors is the definitive, urgent brief on where to go, what to measure, and why the next discovery won't just change textbooks - it will rewrite our place in the universe.
Little Book of Armani: The story of the iconic fashion house
The name 'Armani' embodies the significance of being 'Made in Italy', and a quiet luxury that came to define American power dressing.
Beginning in 1970s Milan, Giorgio Armani pared back structure and refined proportion, creating tailoring that felt modern, fluid and quietly authoritative. On the catwalk, he showed a vision of luxury built on restraint, clarity and longevity. On screen, Richard Gere's Armani wardrobe in American Gigolo recast menswear as seductive rather than stiff, while on the Oscars red carpet, Diane Keaton in a stripped-back Armani look demonstrated the ultimate in understatement as glamour. Little Book of Armani tells the story of how - across fragrance, sportswear and evening wear - Armani proved that sophistication often speaks quietly.
With 100 images of runway, behind the scenes, on-screen, campaigns and street style, alongside expert text deep-diving every look, this is the ultimate guide to the world of Armani.

PORTAL
Tracy Fuad’s second collection of poems, PORTAL, probes the fraught experience of bringing a new life into a world that is both lush and filled with gloom. A baby is born in a brutalist building; the planet shrinks under the new logic of contagion; roses washed up from a shipwreck centuries ago are blooming up and down the cape. PORTAL documents a life that is mediated, even at its most intimate moments, by flattening interfaces of technology and in which language—and even intelligence—is no longer produced only by humans. The voices here are stalked by eco-grief and loneliness, but they also brim with song and ecstasy, reveling in the strangeness of contemporary life while grieving losses that cannot be restored. Through Fuad’s frank, honest poetry, PORTAL vibrates with pleasure and dread.
The Franchise
A land filled with magic and dragons and wizards and warriors. Thousands of people live and work within its borders, fearful of their enemies and loyal to their king. The classic fantasy world of The Malicarn has been brought to life on the big screen in a series of phenomenally successful blockbuster movies, almost entirely populated by characters in total belief that their sham fantasy lives are real. A fan-favorite actor finds himself doubting the studio's work, but this franchise has an almost unstoppable momentum, and bringing freedom to a population that already believes itself to be free won’t be as easy as he thinks.

Profit First
Using Michalowicz's Profit First system, readers will learn that:
· Following 4 simple principles can simplify accounting and make it easier to manage a profitable business by looking at bank account balances.
· A small, profitable business can be worth much more than a large business surviving on its top line.
· Businesses that attain early and sustained profitability have a better shot at achieving long-term growth.
The entrepreneur behind three multi-million dollar companies offers a simple, counterintuitive cash management solution that will help small businesses break out of the doom spiral and achieve instant profitability.
Conventional accounting uses the logical (albeit, flawed) formula: Sales - Expenses = Profit. The problem is, businesses are run by humans, and humans aren't always logical. Serial entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz has developed a behavioral approach to accounting to flip the formula: Sales - Profit = Expenses. Just as the most effective weight loss strategy is to limit portions by using smaller plates, Michalowicz shows that by taking profit first and apportioning only what remains for expenses, entrepreneurs will transform their businesses from cash-eating monsters to profitable cash cows.
With dozens of case studies, practical, step-by-step advice, and his signature sense of humour, Michalowicz has the game-changing roadmap for any entrepreneur to make money they always dreamed of.
