Weaving together science, history and narrative, Equine traces our bond with the horse across 6000 years of co-existence.

A hétalvó pele, aki nem tudott elaludni
Itt az ősz, a hétalvó pelék már a téli alváshoz készülődnek. Ám a kis pele még nem álmos. Márpedig egy hétalvó, aki nem alszik, az nem is igazi hétalvó! Az állatok megpróbálnak segíteni neki, de egymás után nyomja el őket az álom. A kis hétalvó meg még mindig ébren van! Esti mese mindazoknak, akik nem tudnak elaludni.
A kis pelével sosem unalmas az élet: ő és erdei barátai a legjobb elalvós trükköket ismerik, a legmókásabb ötletekkel ébresztik fel az álmos pelegyerekeket, és még a legmorgósabbakat is képesek megnevettetni. Miért kell mindenkinek egy puha, ölelni való takaró? Hogyan lehet egy pillanat alatt elűzni a sötétségtől való félelmet? A történetek szívből és humorral mesélnek barátságról, bátorságról, összetartozásról és az esti elalvás apró nehézségeiről.
A Gyűjtő
Légy óvatos, nehogy bekerülj Dr. Burnett gyűjteményébe...
1826, Edinburgh. Isobel Tait egy rendhagyó orvosi gyűjtemény vitrinjében egy üvegbe zárt gyermekszívet pillant meg. A szív ritka rendellenessége kísértetiesen megegyezik a hónapokkal korábban eltűnt kisfia betegségével.
A városban egyre több ember tűnik el nyomtalanul, miközben Dr. Burnett, a hírhedt anatómus, újabb és újabb preparátumokkal bővíti bizarr kollekcióját. De vajon meddig hajlandó elmenni a tudomány nevében?
Isobel az orvos alkalmazottjaként férkőzik közel a titkaihoz, hogy megtudja az igazságot. Amit azonban felfedez, az minden képzeletét felülmúlja. Egy pokoli világ tárul fel előtte, ahol a tudomány szörnyű árnyékot vet az emberi lelkiismeretre.
Sötét hangulatú, érzelmekkel átszőtt történelmi krimi, amely mesterien egyensúlyoz igazság és megszállottság, anyai szeretet és bosszúvágy határán.
Red Card
The World Cup is here, but what function does a worldwide tournament play in an increasingly belligerent police state, with Donald Trump at the hel? ublishing on the eve of the soccer World Cup in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, this concise, power-packed philippic provides a critical take on the dark underbelly of the beautiful game at its most storied moment. At the heart of this analysis by acclaimed sportswriter and scholar Jules Boykoff, who himself played soccer professionally, is the concept of sportswashing, where political leaders use sports to stoke nationalism and legitimize themselves on the world stage, deflecting from chronic problems at home. Step forward the recipient of the newly cast FIFA Peace Prize, Donald J. Trump, a titan unrivaled in squeegeeing every drop of personal wealth and prestige from hosting the competition. In this, he is ably assisted by a governing body of global soccer dripping in patronage and corruption. In these pages Boykoff demonstrates that it is possible to simultaneously treasure the skills and athleticism displayed on the pitch while lamenting their exploitation by malevolent powerbrokers for whom love of the game means nothing next to turning a buck or harvesting prestige. And, as Red Card so skillfully shows, this bait and switch is not confined to soccer. Precisely the same legerdemain will be used to distract and enrich when the Olympic Games come to Los Angeles two years from now.

Amikor a népszerű londoni magazin céltudatos, ám visszahúzódó szerkesztőnője és a sikeres, közvetlen New York-i fotóművész útja keresztezi egymást, fogalmuk sincs arról, hogy ez lesz az a bizonyos találkozás. A férfi ugyanis foglalt, a nő pedig ki nem állhatja az öntelt fotóst. De mi van akkor, ha a férfi már nem foglalt – és talán soha nem is volt öntelt?
A szakmájában sikeres és magabiztos két ember a magánéletben addig botladozik, mígnem egymás karjában kötnek ki. Mindenki meg van róla győződve, hogy egymásnak teremtették őket, és végre ők is elhiszik. Amikor azonban a pár rájön, hogy egyikük Londonban képzeli el a jövőt, és a családot akar, míg a másik Los Angelesről álmodik jegygyűrű és gyerek nélkül, ráeszmélnek, hogy az életnek talán más tervei vannak.
Miközben saját meggyőződésük mellett a múlt sötét titkai és a jelen tragédiái beárnyékolják a boldogságukat, el kell dönteniük: elég-e a szerelem, ha két ember ugyanannyira vágyik egymásra, mint amennyire fél elveszíteni önmagát? Mit tehet, aki rájön, hogy saját boldogsága útjában áll?
Két idősík, két makacs ember, egy szerelem.

Footprints
With sharp intellect and warm humor, Lionel Morrison tells the story of the struggle for freedom in South Africa and beyond, revealing the intimate experience of grand geopolitical shiftsApartheid in South Africa was arbitrary and ferocious-its end is widely celebrated. Yet the monumental difficulties faced by the movement for liberation and the sacrifices made by ordinary yet remarkable individuals have been hidden in the broad sweep of time. Celebrated journalist Lionel Morrison brings this history to life, honoring his forgotten comrades. He shares memories as a defendant in the Treason Trial and of periods in prison before being forced to flee South Africa as a stow away, meeting leaders of the Non-Aligned Movement, the heady days of pan-African and Asian nationalism, and fighting racism in Britain. Completed by Liz Morrison after her husband’s death, Footprints is an ode to community, truth, and resistance.
The Gilded City of Dreams
In 1920s Manhattan, a young fairy godmother is caught in an evil conspiracy to control her sisterhood’s magic in a sweeping historical fantasy by the bestselling author of The Vine Witch. Unlike most dreamers, Celeste made it in Hollywood—albeit as a Fée Gardienne in a magical, centuries-old sisterhood. Yet her excitement is tempered by the death of the Gardiennes’ leader, making Celeste and her fellow fairy godmother Anais caretakers of the sacred elder staff. Charged with returning the ancient relic to Paris, they set off for New York City to catch a steamship to France. But the 1920s Big Apple roars with danger in ways Celeste and Anais never anticipated. Upon their arrival, a street urchin steals the staff and disappears into the shadows. When Anais taps into her rebellious streak to search for the thief on her own, she falls into the clutches of a mysterious band of kidnappers who are seemingly aware of the magical possibilities the stolen staff can offer. To find Anais and retrieve the enchanted heart of the sisterhood, Celeste must rely on her wits, her magic, and her trust in a stranger—even if it means putting her friend at risk.

A fény magányossága
1975, Budapest, az űrverseny végén. A hidegháború enyhülni látszik, az Apollo–Szojuz-korszak a technológiai együttműködés illúzióját kínálja, a hétköznapokat mégis az alkalmazkodás, a hallgatás és a kimondatlan határok szabják meg.
Kajetán Andor csillagász a magyar tudományos élet egyik legismertebb arca: a Csillagvizsgáló Intézet büszkesége, a televízió kedvence. A felszín alatt ugyanakkor gyász és depresszió gyötri, rossz döntések és kétes alkuk következménye, melyek mélyen a múltjába nyúlnak. És hamarosan ismét útelágazáshoz érkezik, egy újabb rossz döntés pedig már az egész hátralévő életére és szakmai munkájára végzetes kihatással lehet.
Andor ugyanis a munkáján túl a katonai felderítés informátora, aki külföldi útjairól hazatérve beszámol a történésekről, és jelentéseket ír kinti kollégáiról. Egyik este a tartótisztje megkeresi azzal, hogy a rendszer meghálálná eddigi tetteit, és arra kérik, fejezze be volt kollégája és barátja, Kemenesi György tanulmányát, mely jelentős tudományos felfedezést ígér a Végső Sors-elmélet kutatásában, ami az univerzum tágulását vizsgálja.
Kovács Krisztián valós eseményeken alapuló történelmi regénye lélektani tanulmány tudományos kíváncsiságról és lojalitásról, apaságról és elhallgatásról, nagyívű története Budapest második világháborús bombázásától a Szputnyik fellövésén át egészen a holdra szállásig, majd még annál is tovább vezet. A fény magányossága ugyanakkor feszült thriller arról, hogyan válik erkölcsi csapdává a határok feszegetése, és milyen árat fizet az, aki áruba bocsátja tehetségét a politikai hatalom számára.
A fény ugyanis nem válogat: nemcsak megvilágít, hanem le is leplez.
Spravedlivý růst
Rovné šance, efektivní reformy a prosperita širší společnosti jako lék na politickou strnulost Česko si udržuje spoustu drahých nespravedlností. Chudé děti mají malou šanci získat kvalitní vzdělání. Nízkopříjmové zaměstnance drtí daňový systém. Rodiče, cizince i předlužené vytlačuje legislativa z trhu práce. Veřejné systémy nemotivují ke zdravotní prevenci ani ekonomické iniciativě. Nic z toho už nemůžeme nazývat slepými skvrnami — a přesto statisíce lidí a celé regiony stále nedosáhnou na společný blahobyt. Česko kvůli tomu ekonomicky stagnuje a ztrácí společenskou soudržnost. Geopolitická situace a klimatická krize před nás přitom staví mnohem závažnější výzvy. Sociolog Daniel Prokop ukazuje, že potřebujeme spravedlivý růst. Česko poroste, jen když do prosperity spravedlivě zapojí všechny obyvatele. Zároveň musí překonat samospád, jímž se dnes řídí veřejné systémy. Část lidí se v nich ztrácí, zbytek využívá jejich mezery a slabiny a politika jen udržuje společenskou strnulost. Prokopova kniha ukazuje hloubku zdejších problémů a zároveň detailně popisuje reformy daní, dávek, vzdělávání, ale i samospráv či zdravotní prevence, které by Česko posunuly k prosperitě pro všechny.

Iran's Grand Strategy
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Shia RevivalNow with a new afterword by the author, this gripping account overturns simplistic portrayals of Iran as a theocratic pariah state, revealing how its strategic moves on the world stage are driven by two pervasive threats—external aggression and internal dissolutionIran presents one of the most significant foreign policy challenges for America and the West, yet very little is known about what the country’s goals really are. Vali Nasr examines Iran’s political history in new ways to explain its actions and ambitions on the world stage, showing how, behind the veneer of theocracy and Islamic ideology, today’s Iran is pursuing a grand strategy aimed at securing the country internally and asserting its place in the region and the world. Drawing on memoirs, oral histories, and original in-depth interviews with Iranian decision makers, Nasr brings to light facts and events in Iran’s political history that have been overlooked until now. He traces the roots of Iran’s strategic outlook to its experiences over the past four decades of war with Iraq in the 1980s and the subsequent American containment of Iran, invasion of Iraq in 2003, and posture toward Iran thereafter. Nasr reveals how these experiences have shaped a geopolitical outlook driven by pervasive fear of America and its plans for the Middle East. Now with an afterword by the author that addresses recent developments in Iran’s domestic and world affairs, Iran’s Grand Strategy challenges the notion that Iran’s foreign policy simply reflects its revolutionary values or theocratic government. It provides invaluable insights into what Iran wants and why, explaining the country’s resistance to the United States, its nuclear ambitions, and its pursuit of influence and proxies across the Middle East.
On America
A timely volume for America250 that illuminates what America means—and what it means to be an American.As Americans mark the semiquincentennial of their republic’s birth, they are deeply divided over the nature and meaning of the American Founding. Does the United States rest on an intrinsically racist basis, as is now so often claimed? Did the Declaration of Independence commit the United States to a perpetual revolution aimed at liberating the American people—and others—from all inherited constraints? If America’s framers were neither vile racists nor wild-eyed radicals, were they at least good liberals? They were in fact none of these things. In On America: How to Understand the Legacy of 1776, Russell Kirk, one of the most important and brilliant thinkers of the twentieth century, explains that America is not an “experiment,” but rather a particular expression of the entire Western heritage. The Founding of the United States should be understood as an essentially conservative act, writes Kirk, and is therefore an achievement in which sober-minded Americans ought to take pride. Besides fresh, accessible essays on the Declaration of Independence and the Founding period, On America includes Kirk’s insightful reflections on wise American statesmen from John Adams to Abraham Lincoln to (surprisingly) Eugene McCarthy, as well as his interpretations of great American writers from Nathaniel Hawthorne to Robert Frost to Flannery O’Connor.
