Persevered
If you think you know what mental health during and after pregnancy looks like, Persevered: A Maternal Mental Health Memoir will make you reconsider. Dr. Kara Zivin offers a rare, unfiltered look at what happened when a respected mental health researcher faced her own grave battle with depression and anxiety during and after pregnancy. This book is a raw personal account of surviving the darkest moments of new motherhood while juggling high expectations at home and at work. Zivin takes the reader on an intimate and eye-opening journey that weaves together her perinatal medical records, journal entries, research, and imperfect memories. The story unfolds across hospital rooms, the author’s home, and the university where she works, highlighting the complexity of holding on to one’s identity when everything feels uncertain. Zivin writes with striking honesty about the confusion, guilt, and isolation that so many mothers experience alone but rarely admit to others. Her willingness to lay bare her struggles and her gradual journey toward hope and recovery makes every page feel authentic and deeply relatable. Persevered moves beyond one woman’s survival, breaking the silence that still surrounds maternal mental health. Zivin’s story reminds us that reaching out, sharing our experiences, and demanding better support can make a difference, not just for mothers but for families and communities. This memoir is for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed, anyone who has supported a loved one through challenging times, or anyone who believes that honest storytelling can spark real change.

Brána nekonečna
Válka o multiversum začala
Pandominium je nejrozsáhlejší politická a obchodní aliance, jakou kdy multivesmír poznal. Toto společenství sdružuje miliony světů. Ve skutečnosti je to však jen jeden svět — Země v mnoha různých realitách. A když se AI stane hrozbou natolik závažnou, že by mohla zničit samotné základy, na nichž Pandominium stojí, musí aliance vynaložit všechny dostupné prostředky, aby toto nebezpečí eliminovala.
Mezitím vědkyně Hadiz Tambuwalová, která na své vlastní Zemi hledá způsob, jak odvrátit blížící se environmentální kolaps, náhodou odhalí tajemství cestování napříč dimenzemi. Tento princip je klíčem k záchraně všech na umírající planetě. Samotnou Hadiz však zavede doprostřed války odehrávající se v měřítku, o jakém se jí nikdy ani nesnilo. Její osud se proplete s osudy dalších lidí, bytostí a entit z jiných vesmírů a ona se musí rozhodnout, na čí stranu se postaví.
A ve hře je víc, než si kdokoli z nich dokázal představit.

KÜLÖNLEGES, ÉLDEKORÁLT KIADÁS
Kade Mitchell megszállottja valakinek, akit megvet
Stacey Rhodes egy angyal bőrébe bújt kígyó, mégis ő az, akit Kade képtelen elfelejteni: a lány, aki összetörte a szívét, és az alvilág mélyének sötétjébe taszította..
Éveken át figyelte. Megölt mindenkit, aki a közelébe merészkedett. De most, amikor a számára csapdát jelentő életből egy röpke pillanatra kiszabadul, hazatér és ismét hajtja a vágy, hogy a lányt a magáénak követelje, és ezért megszeg minden szabályt, amit felállított.
Még a gyűlölet sem nyomhatja el a kettejük közötti vonzalmat.
De Kade sosem fog megbocsátani - vagy mégis?

V Prahe sa otvárajú dva najväčšie obchodné domy, Kotva a Máj, pričom Kotva je dokonca piatym najväčším obchodným domom v Európe. V Bratislave pokračuje výstavba najväčšieho slovenského sídliska Petržalka. Tiež sa nakrúca legendárny Pacho, hybský zbojník a nastupuje skupina Elán. V Španielsku zomiera generál Francisco Franco a v Anglicku je zvolená Margaret Thatcher do čela konzervatívnej strany.
Let Go
As we grow older, human beings accumulate more and more unnecessary things just by living. And not just objects, we accrue connections and status in addition to expensive goods.
If you don't throw these things away as soon as possible, you become a person who can't throw things away. Before you know it, your life is full of noise. You're tied up. Full of anxiety about the future.
That's a tough kind of life, isn't it?
This bestselling and hugely influential book provides an overview of the top ten things you can let go of in five of the most important areas of your life: money and the things you own, your working life, your physical and mental health, your relationships and your lifestyle.
We all cling to habits we learned from our parents, grandparents, friends and society and not letting them go comes at the expense of our personal freedom and overall life satisfaction.
All of the '50 Things' included in this book centre on the idea that minimalism can have a hugely positive impact on your life by clearing away the noise. Every item you let go of clears space for more freedom and creative energy to flow in.
Embrace the courage to let go!
Shaolin Spirit
What do you imagine when you think of Shaolin? Ferociously strong warriors flying through the air?
Shaolin is more than just the physical expression of martial arts. Rooted in Zen and Tao philosophy, it also offers a way of reconnecting our minds with our bodies through meditative movement to cultivate the core virtues of discipline and perseverance.
In this book, Shi Heng Yi, founder of Shaolin Temple Europe and lay disciple of the Songshan Shaolin Temple, introduces us to the contemplative practice that underpins Shaolin – a way of life that has existed for over 1,500 years – and shows how it can help us today.
Having experienced the challenges of modern life as a young man, Shi Heng Yi understands the pressures only too well. Here, he highlights twelve key practices to help improve sleep, relationships and decision-making, as much as balance, flexibility and strength, offering a powerful pathway to self-mastery and understanding.
Môj rok 1971
Od augusta 1968 uplynulo dva a pol roka a kolesá normalizácie, cesty k čistej totalite, už sa krútili a naberali rýchlosť. Absolútna moc komunistov bola podtrhnutá a spočítaná na ich májovom zjazde. Nebolo to veselé. Väčšina ľudí chcela žiť a milovať sa, mať deti a pokoj od nejakých politických táranín a handrkovania. A – zabávať sa. Počúvali sme Johna Lennona a jeho Imagine, Eltona Johna a Rolling Stones, ale aj Collegium Musicum... V tomto roku František Venclovský preplával ako prvý Čechoslovák kanál La Manche, bol natočený film Orlie pierko a po troch rokoch zatvorili Divadlo na korze. Nečudo, Lasica, Satinský a spol. boli jednoducho nežiadúci... Miloš Forman, Jan Němec alebo Ivan Passer opustili krajinu. Ďalší nemohli pri filme naďalej vôbec pracovať alebo čelili permanentnej cenzúre. Ale zabávali sme sa na Dívce na koštěti, aj na Jamesovi Bondovi vo filme Diamanty sú večné. Oscara tento rok získala Francúzska spojka. Najúspešnejším československým športovcom sa stal Ondrej Nepela, futbalistom roka Karol Dobiaš a bežec Dušan Moravčík skončil na Majstrovstvách Európy druhý... Začal sa stavať obchodný dom Kotva, otvorili prvý diaľničný úsek Praha – Mirošovice a prvý cestný tunel na štátnej ceste medzi Stratenou a Dobšinskou ľadovou jaskyňou v Slovenskom raji.
Môj rok 1985
Osemdesiate roky sa lámu do svojej druhej, lepšej polovice. Na Wembley Freddie Mercury volá: EEEEOOO, na Strahove sa naposledy tlieska cvičencom. Fanúšikovia jasajú, že sa Čechoslováci stali majstrami sveta v hokeji a v Bratislave štartuje výstavba metra. Na čelo Sovietskeho zväzu sa dostáva Michail Gorbačov, Michael Jackson spieva We Are the World a kriminalisti pátrajú po spartakiádnom vrahovi. Nachádza sa Titanic! Madonna sa vydáva, Forman drží Oscara a Zlatého slávika vyhráva Peter Nagy...
HOW TO KILL A WITCH
As a woman, if you lived in Scotland in the 1500s, there was a very good chance that you, or someone you knew, would be tried as a witch. Witch hunts ripped through the country for over 150 years, with at least 4,000 accused, and with many women's fates sealed by a grizzly execution of strangulation, followed by burning.
Inspired to correct this historic injustice, campaigners and writers Claire Mitchell, KC, and Zoe Venditozzi, have delved deeply into just why the trials exploded in Scotland to such a degree. In order to understand why it happened, they have broken down the entire horrifying process, step-by-step, from identification of individuals, to their accusation, 'pricking', torture, confessions, execution and beyond.
With characteristically sharp wit and a sense of outrage, they attempt to inhabit the minds of the persecutors, often men, revealing the inner workings of exactly why the Patriarchy went to such extraordinary lengths to silence women, and how this legally sanctioned victimisation proliferated in Scotland and around the world.
With testimony from a small army of experts, pen portraits of the women accused, trial transcripts, witness accounts and the documents that set the legal grounds for the hunts, How to Kill A Witch builds to form a rich patchwork of tragic stories, helping us comprehend the underlying reasons for this terrible injustice, and raises the serious question - could it ever happen again?

Slova
Byl to talentovaný rebel, kterého všichni chtěli. Já byla bezvýznamná šprtka, kterou všichni nenáviděli. On byl předurčený stát se hvězdou. Já jsem byla předurčena zůstat bezvýznamnou nýmandkou. Dokud mě nepřesvědčil, že jsem výjimečná... A pak mě zničil. Nikdy jsem si nemyslela, že Phoenixe ještě někdy uvidím, poté co mi zlomil srdce, ale osud měl jiné plány. Jedno turné. Osm týdnů. Nespočet příležitostí, jak mu to oplatit. Svět si myslel, že je bůh... Ale já znala pravdu.

A History of Horror, Fear, and the Uncanny
Take a step - if you dare - into the shadows, and discover the blood-curdling history of horror across the world in this gruesomely illustrated title.
A History of Horror, Fear and the Uncanny explores the dark and eerie landscapes of horror down the centuries - from prehistoric death rituals to modern interpretations in art, literature, and film.
In this petrifying book, you will find:
A complete global history of the subject - from ancient visions of the Underworld and horror in fairytales to Gothic horror and "creepypasta" tales
More than 350 stunning full-colour images combined with engaging and accessible text
Profiles of infamous supernatural creatures - from ghosts and demons to banshees and changelings, and from Grendel to Baba Yaga and the Morrigan to the Golem
Profiles of the scariest books and films of all time - from novels by Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker, and Stephen King to movies like The Exorcist, The Shining, and Alien
…in a stunning, giftable package with a specially commissioned cover artwork and gorily printed page edges.
Discover how our experience and understanding of fear and terror have evolved through the ages, beginning with the ancient visions of a hellish Underworld. Encounter terrifying figures like Medusa and the Babylonian demon Pazuzu. And tread carefully through the medieval world, where a fear of the unknown stoked apocalyptic terror around the Black Death and gave rise to the danse macabre and the demonology of the Malleus Maleficarum.
Delve into the folklore that gave birth to creatures of the night - from vampires and werewolves to the Japanese Kappa water demon and the cannibalistic Wendigo of Indigenous American lore. Witness the emergence of Gothic literature, with the terrifying and genre-defining works of authors like Mary Shelley, H. P. Lovecraft, and M. R. James. And learn how the 20th century saw a new wave of terror unleashed through Expressionist art, monsters in the movies, "body horror" films, and the "folk horror" revival.
Whether you are a dedicated horror aficionado or simply curious, A History of Horror, Fear and the Uncanny isn't just for Halloween… It is a thrilling - chilling - journey into the heart of darkness.
