Rome's Age of Revolution
Rome's Age of Revolution corrects the triumphalist narrative that the Christian message was so persuasive, and indeed superior, that people converted in huge numbers, abandoning their pagan beliefs, thereby turning a small, persecuted sect into the state religion of the Roman Empire.
Tim Whitmarsh shows that Christianity would never have succeeded if it had not taken advantage of the infrastructure and culture of the Roman Empire; in turn the new religion was indelibly shaped and transformed by Roman beliefs and ideas, especially those circulating in the Greek-speaking, or Hellenistic, eastern parts of the empire. This radical transformation, Tim argues, can only be described as a revolution. And the consequences are with us to this day.
Battle Royale - Második kötet
Valahol, valamikor egy diktatórikus távol-keleti országban, az állami vezetők kegyetlen kísérletet eszelnek ki: negyvenkét középiskolást egy lakatlan szigeten arra kényszerítenek, hogy életre-halálra megvívjanak egymással.
Géppisztolytól kezdve a sarlón át a konyhai étkészletből származó villáig, bármilyen fegyver a rendelkezésükre áll.
A Programnak csak egyetlen túlélője lehet: a győztes.
Takami Kósun regénye, melyet gyakran neveznek a 21. századi Legyek urának, botrányos karriert futott be. Bár megjelenését a japán kormány is ellenezte, a regény 1999 óta több kontinensen vezette a sikerlistákat, több millió példányban fogyott el, számos feldolgozást ért meg, különböző műfajokban, és számos későbbi műre gyakorolt hatást világszerte.
Existenciálny manažment 2
Existenciálny manažment 2: Ontologická architektúra organizácie, zmysel organizácie a jednota rozhodovania v čase je odborným pokračovaním knihy Existenciálny manažment: Ako prežiť a zvíťaziť v chaose dnešného sveta.
Rastislav Silný v tejto publikácii systematicky rozvíja teoretické jadro Existenciálneho manažmentu. Skúma organizáciu nie iba ako právnu formu, ekonomický výkon, štruktúru alebo súbor procesov, ale ako jednotu rozhodovania, ktorej identita, kontinuita a stabilita závisia od zmyslu organizácie reprodukovaného v čase.
Kniha vysvetľuje, čo organizáciu skutočne drží pohromade, prečo sa jej vnútorná jednota môže oslabovať aj pri zachovanom výkone, ako vzniká entropický drift, akú úlohu má integračná sila a prečo rozhodovanie nemožno chápať iba ako manažérsku techniku.
Je určená podnikateľom, vlastníkom, lídrom, manažérom, vedcom, konzultantom a čitateľom, ktorí chcú porozumieť hlbším podmienkam stability organizácií v čase neistoty. Neponúka rýchly návod, ale presnejší spôsob videnia organizácie.

The Butterfly Who Dreamt He Was a Man
From ancient fables to modern science, insects and their metamorphoses have long inspired human understanding of life’s transitions. This original and engaging book traces how these transformations have shaped rituals around birth, marriage and death, while also provoking deep questions about identity. Through stories that connect Zhuang Zhou’s butterfly dream to figures such as Kafka, Merian and Dürer, it explores the strange, beautiful and sometimes unsettling ways in which cultures have understood insects – as miracles, messengers or monsters. Blending humour, history and environmental insight, Boria Sax offers an imaginative lens on the growing crisis of insect extinction. More than just a natural history, this is a cultural and philosophical journey that shows why losing insects means losing part of ourselves.
9 szeretetnyelv
Gary Chapman párkapcsolati szakértő bestsellerében, Az 5 szeretetnyelvben arra biztat, hogy ha rálelünk a saját és a partnerünk szeretetnyelvére, akkor könnyebben kommunikálunk majd, és mélyebben megértjük a másikat. A megjelenése óta eltelt évtizedekben azonban átalakultak a randizás, az ismerkedés szokásai, a kapcsolatok formái és dinamikái.
Ebben a könyvben Alise Morales írónő újragondolja az öt szeretetnyelv – elismerő szavak, minőségi idő, ajándékozás, szívességek és testi érintés – fogalmát, és kibővíti négy továbbival: a határok tiszteletben tartása, az érzelmi biztonság, az egészséges vita, valamint a közös célok és élmények. Könnyed, szórakoztató stílusban és rengeteg gyakorlati élethelyzetet és példát felsorakoztatva mutatja meg, miként használhatjuk a szeretetnyelveket a digitális korban gördülékenyebb és rugalmasabb kommunikációs módszerként. A különféle kapcsolatokra fókuszáló feleletválasztós kvízek pedig abban segítenek, hogy felfedezzük, miként tudjuk a számunkra legjobb módon adni és fogadni a szeretetet.
Samuel Pepys in 50 Places and Objects
The life of politician and diarist Samuel Pepys spanned seven decades, meaning he bore witness to many groundbreaking events such as the execution of King Charles I in 1649 and the Glorious Revolution in 1688. His famous diary was written between 1660 and 1669 and provides fascinating detail on the world around him, from the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660 to the plague in 1665 and the Great Fire of London in 1666. This invaluable record of life in seventeenth-century England offers an intriguing insight into the politics, court life, defence of the realm and commerce of the period as well as day-to-day living. He describes visits to coffee houses, taverns, theatres, bear pits and, with incredible candour, brothels. Here Pepys’ life and diary is detailed through the places and objects associated with him. Visit the locations where Pepys resided and worked, the dockyards he inspected at Woolwich and Chatham, as well as the churches where he worshipped and the coffee houses and taverns he frequented. Examine items such as the bills of mortality Pepys read during the plague, his wig, the church steeple from which he observed the Great Fire, and his will. Full of quirky facts and fascinating illustrations, this book transports you back to seventeenth-century London through places and objects central to Pepys’ life.
Liberty Island
1900: Twenty-eight-year-old Anna Bradley is spending the summer on a rugged island off the coast of Haven Point, Maine, supervising her niece, Julia Demarest, and two other spirited girls. As the children race through the woods playing pirates, treasure hunters, and Roughriders, Anna—an ambitious college graduate determined to chart her own path—finds unexpected inspiration. She secretly pens Liberty Island, a bold, imaginative novel celebrating girls unbound by the expectations of marriage and motherhood. The book becomes a runaway hit with young readers, but draws scorn from the social elite, who see it as dangerous and unbecoming. As the book's popularity grows and Anna’s carefully kept secret teeters on the edge of exposure, she must also navigate a burgeoning romance—and reconsider everything she thought she wanted for her future. 1922: Julia Demarest, now twenty-nine, was once enchanted by her aunt’s bestselling books. But times have changed—and so has she. Disillusioned by the restrictions of her privileged upbringing and disenchanted by a failed romance with a bohemian intellectual, Julia finds herself adrift and estranged from her family. When a sudden call brings her back to Haven Point, she must reckon with the ghosts of her past, the ideals she once dismissed, and what freedom truly means to her. Rich with heart and history, Liberty Island is an unforgettable story of love, legacy, and belonging.
Desperate Remedies
''She was swayed into emotional opinions concerning the strange man before her; new impulses of thought...entered into her with a gnawing thrill.''Hardy''s first published work, Desperate Remedies moves the sensation novel into new territory. The anti-hero, Aeneas Manston, as physically alluring as he is evil, even fascinates the innocent Cytherea, though she is in love with another man. When he cannot seduce her, Manston resorts to deception, blackmail, bigamy, murder, and rape. Yet this compelling story also raises the great questions underlying Hardy''s major novels, which relate to the injustice of the class system, the treatment of women, probability and causality. This edition shows for the first time that the sensation novel was always Hardy''s natural medium.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
Goods Wagons in the UK
There is no doubt that a greater understanding of the UK wagon fleet enhances the appreciation of the rail-enthusiasts’ hobby, whether for railway modelling purposes or simply enjoying watching the real thing, or both. The wagon numbering system alone is outdated and can be a minefield. Wagons built since 2008, including some conversions and rebuilds, now conform to the Europe-wide system of wagon numbering. In this book, however, the focus is on exploring almost 200 examples from among the thousands of UK wagons remaining in use that carry private-owner or nationalised UK air-braked numbering systems.Since the TOPS coding system was introduced in the 1970s much has changed in the rail-freight sector. The alphabetical classification used for wagon types has not. In this publication the 100 or so classifications are each featured and explained. Ranging from flat wagons for carrying shipping containers to wagons designed specifically for carrying steel or stone, for example, the variety of wagons built in the twentieth century that are still in use today are detailed.Drawing on one of the largest collections of wagon images on the Internet, John Jackson explores these survivors with the featured wagons arranged numerically for ease of reference. The cross-section included is designed to enhance the enthusiast’s understanding and, it is hoped, enjoyment of watching freight trains in the UK.
The Maternal Element
Siberia 1833. Forty-one-year-old Maria Mendeleeva is enduring her seventeenth pregnancy. Her husband Ivan has lost his sight, and her brother Vasily has left their grandfather’s glass factory in ruins. The factory Maria hungered for as a child. On the brink of poverty and her family’s only remaining hope, Maria must find a way to make the factory viable. She must find the power to bring her grandfather's dreams back to life. She must make the glass sing. The Maternal Element is a sweeping, gripping epic with an extraordinary woman at its heart. Maria Mendeleeva – mother of Dmitri Mendeleev, who devised the Periodic Table of the Elements – is a heroine like no other. A woman who refuses to be quashed by circumstance, Maria fights against the strictures of her time to gain an education for herself and for her children as she traverses the Urals of Russia seeking opportunity and safety for her family. A vivid and visceral portrait of a woman history has long since forgotten, The Maternal Element is a manifesto for truth, female empowerment and defying societal expectations.

Millióéves krátereket simogatsz
A kötet a test, a veszteség, az anyaság és az emlékezés határterületeit járja be. A versek egyszerre mozognak a személyes tapasztalat és a természeti képek ősi rétegeiben: a test hol tájjá, hol romló vagy újjászülető ökoszisztémává alakul, miközben indák, gyökerek, kráterek és erdők szövik át ezt a lírai univerzumot. A szövegek a hiány, a kapcsolódás és az ember sérülékennyé lett világban elfoglalt helye köré szerveződnek. A legintimebb tapasztalatok is kozmikus távlatot kapnak: egy könny bolygóvá növekszik, egy érintés évmilliókon ível át,
a természet pedig egyszerre ölel körül és tart távol. A versciklusokat Szőke Erika kísérleti fotóeljárással készült alkotásai kísérik, tovább mélyítve a fényből, organikus formákból és mulandóságból épülő atmoszférát.
Havran Kati 1991-ben született Vágsellyén. Ez az első kötete.
Cesta do Jonestownu: Jim Jones a Chrám lidu
V 50. letech 20. století hlásal mladý kazatel z Indianapolis Jim Jones evangelium okořeněné marxistickými idejemi. Jeho kongregace byla rasově integrovaná a on sám byl velmi uznávaným vůdcem soudobého hnutí za občanská práva. Po přesunu své církve, kterou pojmenoval Chrám lidu, do Kalifornie se zapojil do politiky a brzy se stal výrazným komunitním lídrem. Pod nablýskaným povrchem charismatického pastora se ale skrývala nevýslovná temnota vedoucí k tragédii, která přivedla do náruče smrti stovky lidí. V tomto strhujícím vyprávění zachycuje Jeff Guinn Jonesův život, od dětství a postupné radikalizace, přes mimomanželské aféry, užívání drog a podvodné uzdravování vírou až po rozhodnutí přestěhovat komunitu svých stoupenců do osady v džungli jihoamerické Guyany. Guinn přináší nové ohromující informace o událostech, které vedly k osudnému 18. listopadu 1978, kdy více než devět set lidí (včetně téměř tří set dětí) zemřelo poté, co jim bylo nařízeno vypít nápoj obsahující kyanid. Guinn prozkoumal tisíce stran spisů FBI souvisejících s případem, které doplnil vlastním obsáhlým výzkumem, hovořil se svědky, s nimiž nikdy předtím nikdo nemluvil, a získal nová svědectví těch, kteří masakr přežili. Ruiny Jonestownu dokonce navštívil s týmž pilotem, který tam letěl v den, kdy byl na Jonesův příkaz zavražděn kongresman Leo Ryan. Cesta do Jonestownu, osmá kniha oranžové true crime edice, je definitivní, ucelenou a důkladnou studií jednoho z nejničivějších kultů moderní doby.

Clara & the Devil, Volume 1
Clara has the rest of her life figured out. She’ll graduate college with the support of her best friend, Jonah; marry her adoring boyfriend; take a full-time job at her local library; and settle down in her small seaside hometown. But when an unusual tourist—tall, dark, and infernal—comes to town, Clara’s careful plans quickly start to unravel. And even while the stranger, who openly calls himself the devil, strikes up a situationship with Jonah, he continues to tempt Clara with reckless talk of power, ambition, and lust. Over the course of one sultry summer, tensions between Clara, Jonah, and the devil mount to an intolerable degree, and Clara is forced to confront the desires she’s kept secret her whole life, even from herself. This deliciously dark tale of Faustian bargains and seduction from New York Times–bestselling author Olivie Blake and fan-favourite artist Little Chmura kicks off a series that explores artistry and power through the temptation of the seven deadly sins.
