Environmentální vzdělávání pro udržitelný rozvoj cestovního ruchu
Tato monografie se v souladu s principy udržitelného rozvoje věnuje významnému a stále aktuálnějšímu tématu – environmentální výchově a vzdělávání v cestovním ruchu. Ukazuje, že příroda a krajina nejsou pouze atraktivními prvky turistické nabídky, ale také klíčovými předpoklady jejího dlouhodobého rozvoje. Proto je nezbytné posilovat povědomí aktérů cestovního ruchu o jejich odpovědnosti a o reálném dopadu jejich činností.
Publikace mapuje environmentální znalosti, postoje a chování těch, kteří cestovní ruch tvoří a ovlivňují, a nabízí konkrétní nástroje pro praxi. Výsledkem výzkumného šetření je mimo jiné miniprůvodce udržitelným cestováním, návrh optimalizace dopadů pěší turistiky či kompetenční model určený podnikatelům působícím v chráněných územích. Závěr knihy přináší ucelenou metodiku hodnocení udržitelného cestovního ruchu, kterou lze využít jak v řízení destinací, tak v odborné přípravě pracovníků v oboru.
Monografie zdůrazňuje potřebu systematického prosazování principů udržitelnosti – od nenásilné environmentální edukace veřejnosti až po vzdělávání ve školách. Osvěta a porozumění nutnosti chránit přírodu a krajinu představují zásadní krok k odpovědnému cestování a k budoucnosti, kterou chceme společně sdílet.

The Zen Parent
Zen philosophy has largely been associated with finding peace within ourselves, but in this brilliant new book, East Asian scholar Dr Yen Ooi shows how ancient Zen wisdom can be used to explore how we can practice Zen while being a parent by improving our relationships with our children and finding harmony within parenting.
In Zen texts, the concept of Sottaku Douji is exemplified by the moment when a chick is hatching out of its egg. At the moment the chick is ready to emerge, it will begin pecking at the shell around it, and the mother hen will then begin pecking from the outside too. In order for the chick to hatch, the two must delicately work together.
Using Sottaku Douji and other insights from ancient philosophy, Ooi shows how we can apply these ideas to our own lives, from working collaboratively with our children more and priming them for the future to building patience and letting go of anxiety.
And through these concepts, she shows us the steps towards practising Zen as a parent.
How to Kill a Guy in Ten Dates
This is one killer love story ...
For fans of Love in the Time of Serial Killers and Butcher & Blackbird, a horror movie fanatic gets caught in the middle of a murder spree and must use her encyclopedic knowledge of the romance and horror genres to escape a killer and become the Final Girl.
When Jamie's best friend drags her to a speed-dating event, she knows what to expect . . . mediocre men and the opportunity to eat her feelings later. She's not expecting a blackout and for her date to be gruesomely killed at their table. After the lights come back on, Jamie sees more bodies on the floor. Knowing there's strength in numbers, she pulls together a band of would-be survivors to escape.
Armed with makeshift weapons and Jamie's extensive knowledge of what NOT to do in a slasher movie - starting with not splitting up - the group try to find a way out whilst the killer stalks them. But is he simply picking them off or is he playing some sick game to woo one of the daters and turn them into his real-life Final Girl?
Nothing speeds up love like fighting for your life and Jamie somehow finds herself in a love triangle despite the potentially deadly consequences. Has she finally found true love or does the prospect of death via machete-wielding psychopath mean she's already met her match?
Opera Wars
Blunt, irreverent, and at times wittily subversive, Opera Wars spotlights opera's colorful and sometimes warring personalities, increasingly fierce controversies over content, and the battles being waged for its economic future.
Drawing on interviews with dozens of opera insiders-as well as her own experience as an award-winning librettist, trained vocalist, opera company director, and arts commentator-Caitlin Vincent deftly unravels clichés and presumptions, exposing such debates as how much fidelity is owed to long-dead opera composers whose plots often stir racial and gender sensitivities, whether there's any cure for typecasting that leaves talented performers out of work and other performers chained to the same roles, and what explains the bizarre kowtowing of opera companies to the demands of traditionalist patrons.
Vincent never shrinks from depicting the industry's top-to-bottom messiness and its stubborn resistance to change. Yet, like a lover who can't quite break away, she always comes back to her veneration for the artform and in these pages stirringly evokes those moments on stage that can be counted on to make ardent fans of the most skeptical.
The Shape of Things Unseen
A compelling insight into how our imagination works, based on the latest scientific research.
People often think of imagination as something used only in creative endeavours. In fact, we use imagination constantly as we reminisce, anticipate, plan, daydream, read, create imagined worlds. The truth is we live in the here and now much less than we tend to think.
Imagination isn’t the exception in our daily lives; it’s our default setting. Yet only now are we beginning to understand exactly how it works. From hallucination to sleepwalking, from REM sleep to delusions, neurologist Adam Zeman brilliantly guides us through the latest scientific studies in the world of the imagination.
He draws on research in neuroscience, the study of human origins and child development to show how the human brain is above all else a creative, imaginative organ – and that we have evolved to share what we imagine. Our brains behave in strikingly similar ways when we observe, remember, imagine or act. Imagine looking at a cube and your eye will trace the contours of the cube as if you were actually seeing it.
Yet it turns out that people differ hugely in their imaginative experience. Some people lack sensory imagery altogether – they would be unable to picture their family if asked to – but still lead fulfilling, even highly creative, lives. From how we visualise to how we understand the minds of others, from the benefits of play to mental disorders, The Shape of Things Unseen dazzles and delights.
It is an essential guide to the latest discoveries about the workings of the human mind.

Ha Oroszország győz - Szcenárió
Megszoktuk, hogy végül minden jól alakul. De mi van, ha most nem így lesz? Carlo Masala különösen drámai módon mutatja be, mi forog kockán.
Egy lehetséges forgatókönyv szerint 2028 márciusában az orosz csapatok elfoglalják az észt kisvárost, Narvát és a Balti-tengeren fekvő Hiiumaa-szigetet. Megkezdődik a balti államok elleni támadás. Az a tény, hogy Európa az ukrajnai háború befejezése után nem fegyverkezett fel újra, most visszaüt. Alkalmazható-e a NATO 5-ös cikkelye? Hogyan dönt a szövetség? Kockáztatják-e a nukleáris háborút?
A katonai szakértő Carlo Masala a fikció határmezsgyéjén egyensúlyozva mutatja be, hogy Oroszország Ukrajna elleni agresszív háborúja messze több, mint egy európai konfliktus – ez a jövőbeli világrendért folyó globális hatalmi harc egyik legfontosabb csatatere, kimenetelétől függ, hogy milyen normák uralják ezentúl a nemzetközi politikát. Ez a könyv sürgető felhívás, hogy Ukrajna sorsán túl lássuk azt is, nemcsak Európa jövője a tét, hanem a nemzetközi rend stabilitása is.
„Hozzászoktunk, hogy végül valahogyan minden jóra fordul. Minden hollywoodi filmben ez történik. Ez történt 1945-ben és 1989-ben is. Persze nem azonnal, az unalmas is lenne. De a végére mégiscsak. A mostani helyzet egyértelmű: demokráciánkra, Ukrajnára, az egész Nyugatra irtózatos nyomás nehezedik. A populisták egyre sikeresebbek a választásokon, az orosz csapatok előrenyomulnak, Donald Trumpot megint elnökké választották. De a végére majd csak jóra fordulnak a dolgok, ugye? Minket azért mégsem támad meg Oroszország, a demokrácia nem roppan bele, a Nyugat megőrzi az erejét, ugye?
És mi van, ha mégsem? Mi van, ha Oroszország győz?”

Lessons from a Default Parent
What nobody tells you about parenthood, from one of the ‘silent partners’ behind the Parenting Hell podcast.
School-run coordinator, party planner, clubs organiser, laundry sorter… and maybe even a ‘real’ job on top! Sound exhaustingly familiar?
From assumptions surrounding who is going to stay at home with the kids to the never-ending list of school admin, being ‘the default parent’ rears its head in a plethora of ways.
This book is for all the defaults out there – bored out of their eyeballs or so overwhelmed they could scream expletives into the wind for a solid hour – to know their invisible labour is seen and valued.
With heartfelt and hilarious advice, Lou Beckett provides much-needed comfort and community for the one who is depended on the most (and often feels appreciated the least), and maybe – just maybe – how we can begin to rebalance the parenting scales and muddle through a little better, together.

What Does it Feel Like
Eve is a successful novelist who wakes up one day in a hospital bed with no memory of how she got there. Her husband, never far from her side, explains that she has had an operation to remove the large, malignant tumour growing in her brain.
As Eve learns to walk, talk, and write again ? and as she wrestles with her diagnosis, and how and when to explain it to her beloved children ? she begins to recall what’s most important to her: long walks with her husband’s hand clasped firmly around her own, family game nights and always buying that dress when she sees it.
Recounted in brief anecdotes, each one is an attempt to answer the type of impossible questions recognizable to anyone navigating the labyrinth of grief. This extraordinary novella is a celebration of life, shot through with warmth and humour – it will both break your heart and put it back together again.
Moje chytrá holčička
Charlottina osmiletá dcera Stella je nadprůměrně chytré, nejspíš geniální dítě. Charlottu ale znepokojuje a děsí náhlá proměna její osobnosti. Po nečekaném odchodu a smrti oblíbené chůvy Blanky má totiž Stella najednou úplně jiné chutě, záliby, dovednosti i temperament. Chováním i zjevem se začíná výrazně podobat právě Blance, pocházející z Arménie, ať už jde o používané obraty, chyby v angličtině, vzhled vlasů, rukopis nebo neustálou chuť na dušené jehněčí, a to navzdory dosavadnímu vegetariánství.
Charlotte, čekající druhé dítě a vyčerpaná těhotenstvím a častými nevolnostmi, je přesvědčená, že za Stellinou proměnou je nějakým způsobem Blanka. Že by Stellu posedla? Nebo se Stella stala svou bývalou chůvou? Nebo si tu chce Blančin duch něco vyřídit? Čím víc je Charlotte celou záležitostí pohlcená, tím víc je přesvědčená, že jen ona může svou dceru zachránit... I přesto, že se záhy ukáže, že její muž považuje všechna její podezření pouze za konstrukt její mysli.
Jedinečný, mrazivý příběh zkoumá nezřetelné hranice diagnózy u dětí a zásadní význam mateřských instinktů. Napínavý, nefalšovaně děsivý román s příchutí nadpřirozena ve stylu Iry Levina je ódou na mateřství, od které se nebudete schopní odtrhnout až do velkolepého, překvapivého finále.
