Mosaics in Britannia
Mosaics in Britannia provides an authoritative overview of Romano-British mosaics, including how they were made and maintained, how the craft was organised, the geometric designs and the subject matter, source and significance of the figured pavements. Also considered is the mosaics’ place within the buildings they adorned, and what they tell us about the social dynamics of the residence and baths. The book ends with the fate of mosaics in the late Roman period and thereafter, including their recording upon rediscovery and their display. Although Romano-British pictorial mosaics seldom attain the artistic brilliance of those around the Mediterranean, they often have sophisticated content. Several demonstrate a good knowledge of classical literature, arguably more so than most other provinces, which is perhaps surprising to those who have assumed that Roman Britain was a backwater at the extreme edge of the Roman Empire.

Avicenna
Abú Alí al-Husajn ibn Síná (asi 970–1037), řečený Avicenna, je přelomovou postavou arabskojazyčného myšlení a vědy a díky latinským překladům, jež vznikly ve 12. století, směrodatně ovlivnil též latinskou křesťanskou filosofii. Jeho nauka o „svatém intelektu“, odborníky doposud opomíjená, propojuje teologii, kosmologii, metafyziku i psychologii a představuje proroka jako aktivní střed lidského světa, díky kterému se nahodilé historické společenství může náležitě včlenit do řádu veškerenstva. Avicennova nauka o proroctví je přesazením Platónova filosofa na trůnu do rámce islámu a vytyčuje půdorys, který prostřednictvím Mosese Maimonida a Alberta Velikého spoluurčoval samo pojetí úkolu a smyslu filosofie v prostředí všech tří velkých monoteismů.

I Promise It Won't Always Hurt Like This
'Truly the best and most insightful book about grief I have ever read' Joanna Cannon'Beautiful, heart-breaking and yet overwhelmingly hopeful' Mike GayleGrief is universal, but it's also as unique to each of us as the person we've lost. It can be overwhelming, exhausting, lonely, unreasonable, there when we least expect it and seemingly never-ending. Wherever you are with your grief and whoever you're grieving for, I Promise It Won't Always Hurt Like This is here to support you. To tell you, until you believe it, that things will get easier. When bestselling writer Clare Mackintosh lost her five-week-old son, she searched for help in books. All of them wanted to tell her what she should be feeling and when she should be feeling it, but the truth - as she soon found out - is that there are no neat, labelled stages for grief, or crash grief-diets to relieve us of our pain. What we need when we're grieving is time and understanding. With 18 short assurances that are full of compassion - drawn from Clare's experiences of losing her son and her father - I Promise it Won't Always Hurt Like This is the book she needed then. PRAISE FOR I PROMISE IT WON'T ALWAYS HURT LIKE THIS'That Clare has used her own devastating experience to help others who are going through something similar is a brave and hugely laudable thing to do.

The Artists Roadmap
A pocket-sized career guide for emerging artists, The Artist's Roadmap is an essential primer for anyone wishing to discover what underpins a professional practice within this field.
Being an artist is challenging. Not only are the skills difficult to master, but there is no single route to success: all artistic careers are different. Authored by the founders of Delphian Gallery – an artist-run nomadic gallery and arts platform – The Artist’s Roadmap charts the complex geography of the contemporary art world, revealing what goes on behind the exhibition display and in the curator’s office in a compassionately frank discussion of what professional practice means today and the commercial aspects of being an artist.
Rich in practical guidance, The Artist’s Roadmap positions early-career artists for those rare moments of opportunity that could define their career, whilst providing them with the tools and know-how to forge their own path to success. Grounded and well informed, this guide addresses everything from approaching galleries and understanding representation to the nuts and bolts of artistic business, such as tax, shipping and insurance. At a time where artists are increasingly forced to hide the realities of their practice behind tight-lipped press releases and marketable mystique, The Artist’s Roadmap is refreshingly honest and an essential primer for any aspiring artist.
Streetwise
From the long-tenured head Goldman Sachs - an institution legendary for its culture of success - comes a candid memoir of global leadership in an age of extreme turbulence.
When Lloyd Blankfein was attacked as a Wall Street fat cat, he had to smile, thinking of his precarious childhood in the notorious public housing projects of East New York, Brooklyn, and attending a high school so chaotic he didn't feel safe leaving class to go to the bathroom in his time there. Harvard University was a total moonshot, and his outsider status never wore off, there or at Harvard Law. When he struck people as street-y, it wasn't Wall Street they were thinking of. But if the chip never quite left Blankfein's shoulder, neither did a wry, resilient spirit and a lucid, democratic intelligence that saw through airs and found talent and ideas in unlikely places.
Streetwise is a delightfully honest, sharp and often very funny reckoning with Blankfein's education - in finance, human nature and the workings of the world. It abounds with lessons about leading teams of brilliant, aggressive, competitive people and harmonising them around shared goals; changing when times are hard and when they're good; managing risk; and knowing a crisis is at hand before it swamps you so you can guide your team to the further shore. Blankfein is famed for his calm hand on Goldman Sachs's tiller during the global financial crisis, and that story is told in full here, among many other decisive episodes.
A powerful blueprint for the wise stewardship of a cause that is larger than yourself, Streetwise will inspire and inform readers throughout the global business community and beyond.
Sir Lewis
The definitive biography of the greatest Formula One driver of all time, now including an exclusive chapter on the 2025 season. ‘Timeless, illuminating and necessary’ – Mirin Fader, author of the New York Times bestsellers Giannis and DreamAt the pinnacle of motorsports, a humble young man from Stevenage has risen to become the greatest Formula One driver of all time. Lewis Hamilton’s journey from remote-controlled car hobbyist to seven-time world champion is evidently the stuff of modern legend. Michael Sawyer follows Hamilton’s path and we witness Hamilton’s single-minded determination to reach the top along the way, even as he challenged racial barriers and opposition at every turn. Beyond his unparalleled on-track exploits – equalling the records held by the legendary Michael Schumacher – Hamilton has used his platform to advocate for social justice, environmental sustainability and diversity, inspiring the next generation by not only encouraging them to pursue their own dreams but by also extending his legacy and impact beyond the track. As Hamilton nears the twilight of his racing career, this electrifying book by acclaimed professor of African American Literature and Culture, and lifelong Formula One fan, Michael Sawyer, examines his lasting legacy. Sir Lewis culminates with Hamilton’s potential final act – chasing a record-setting eighth world title at the wheel of the iconic Ferrari team – and shows how he continues to set new benchmarks for greatness.
