Mú mama elszomorodik
Amikor Lina megajándékozza Varjút egy kis palacsintával, Varjú öröme határtalan. Olyannyira, hogy onnantól a kislányt nevezi egyetlen barátjának, és csak vele törődik, amitől Mú mama elszomorodik. Ráadásul Varjú arra panaszkodik, hogy Mú mama sosem látogatja meg őt a fészkében...De ha igazán akarja, ez talán még egy tehénnek sem lehetetlen. És egy jó barátért érdemes leküzdeni bármilyen akadályt... A kíváncsi tehén és zsémbes varjúbarátja a Pettson és Findusz-sorozat megalkotójának, Sven Nordqvistnak a képein elevenednek meg.
New York lányai
Nem kell jó kislánynak lennünk ahhoz, hogy jó emberré váljunk. Elizabeth Gilbert, az Ízek, imák, szerelmek világszerte népszerű szerzője ebben a regényében az 1940-es évek New Yorkjának színházi világába kalauzolja az olvasót. Főszereplője, az elkényeztetett kisvárosi lány hamar elveszti a naivitását, ahogy belekóstol Manhattan éjszakai életébe - a kulisszák mögötti világ és a testi örömök felfedezésébe. Ám arra is rá kell jönnie, hogy egy bátor nőnek a karrierért és a szerelemért is nagyobb árat kell fizetnie... Az immár nyolcvankilenc éves Vivian örömmel és némi megbánással emlékezik vissza élvhajhász és öntörvényű fiatalságára, valamint azokra az eseményekre, amelyek későbbi életét alakították. Elizabeth Gilbert a világháború előtti Amerika izgalmas korszakába visszautazva is a női szexualitás, a szerelem és az önmegvalósítás összefüggéseit kutatja. A New York lányai persze több egyszerű kérdésfeltevésnél: az emberi vágyak és kapcsolatok bölcsességgel teli ábrázolása teszi páratlan szerelmi történetté.

Krehká svätyňa
Rhodes pocítila na vlastnej koži, aké rany dokáže človeku uštedriť život. Zažila stratu, ktorá je nočnou morou každého z nás. Napriek všetkému sa z nej pozviechala a snaží sa pomáhať ľuďom s podobným osudom. Jej svetlo a súcit sú ako balzam pre dušu.
Až kým nestretne Ansona Hunta. Najlepšieho priateľa jej brata, o ktorom síce počula veľa dobrého, ale z ktorého sa stal nevrlý samotár. Rhodes sa snaží dostať so svojou láskavosťou k nemu bližšie. Lenže Anson skrýva jazvy, ktoré sú oveľa temnejšie než čokoľvek, čo doposiaľ videla. A pýtajú si svoju daň. Ak sa ich skutočne dotkne, je možné, že ani jeden z nich neunikne ich ničivej sile...

Allied Weapons That Made the Difference in World War Two
In 1943, US bomber crews based in the UK were tasked with a 25-mission tour of duty. Most crews never made it past their fifth. The Luftwaffe owned the skies over Europe and the men of the Eighth Air Force were paying the price and strategic bombing was being called into question. Until, that is, the arrival of the Rolls Royce powered long-range P-51 Mustang. The tale of the P-51 began with a request from a wartime British procurement commission in April 1940. In response, Dutch Kindelberger and Edgar Schmued of North American Aviation set the gears in motion that would give birth to the groundbreaking fighter aircraft—the P-51 Mustang. The aircraft was an unqualified success and swept the Luftwaffe from the skies over German, facilitating devasting raids on German industry and paving the way for D-Day in 1944. This book goes on to tell the stories behind ten other weapons and weapons systems, from the drawing board to successful field deployment and their strategic impact beyond the battlefield. They were inspired by outstanding designers such as Sir Sydney Camm, scientists such as Alan Turing, and industrial visionaries such as Andrew Jackson Higgin. Their stories are interlinked with many of the most famous events and people in the history of World War II. Some of the weapons are well-known, others less so, and some are not usually regarded as weapons at all, such as SPAM and the Royal Navy’s “game” used to defeat the U-boats in the Battle of the Atlantic. The Allies found that these weapons meant their forces could be better led given that they had faith in the means given to them to gain victory. The author explores the development, the challenges, and the deployment of these “weapons” and analyses their operational and strategic impact on the allied war effort and their collective contribution to eventual victory. This very readable account is a different perspective on the weapons that won the war.
The Origins of the Corinthian Christ Group
The Origins of the Christ Movement in Corinth: Paul’s Chord of Gods argues that Paul’s language about his god (father, lord Jesus Christ and pneuma) would have been familiar to Corinthian gentiles as a small group of gods – a chord of gods. Worship of Paul’s chord of gods matches the common religious practice (in Theodore Schatzki’s sense) around the ancient Mediterranean and in Corinth and would have been familiar to the Corinthians. This religious practice could have formed the basis of attraction for the Corinthians to join Paul’s Christ group, served as a social engine for its growth among gentiles in Corinth and been a source of conflict with Paul that he tries to address in his letters to the Corinthians.

Fourteen women’s lives intertwine – writers and artists, mothers and daughters, friends and strangers – crossing time and reality, drawn together by abortion, choices, biscuits, and knitting.

Ancient British and Irish Celts in Greek and Roman Sources (500 BC–AD 60)
Ancient Ireland and Britain were large Celtic territories on the northwest edge of Europe. They were subject to myth and speculation by the early Greeks and Romans, but they later became the focus for trade, exploration and partial conquest. Dr Raoul McLaughlin presents the ancient sources for the Atlantic Celts in chapters covering the resources, commerce, warfare and beliefs of the oceanic Celts. This book contains updated translations of ancient sources concerning the lands known as Ivernia and Britannia. These accounts reveal what the Greeks and Romans knew about the origins, culture, and social practices of the insular Celts. The evidence begins in 600 BC when Carthaginian merchant ships explored the Atlantic coasts of western Europe searching for metal alloys. Then, in 325 BC, a Greek mariner named Pytheas explored the northern limits of the Atlantic territories and returned with accounts of Bretannike, Ierne and Thule. But it was Rome that led armies across the northern seas to conquer Britain. This book includes the campaign reports of Julius Caesar, along with accounts of conquests by the Emperor Claudius. These ancient texts reveal the ambitions, conflict and compromises involved in establishing the Roman province of Britannia, which by AD 60 encompassed most of southern Britain. This book therefore provides a unique resource for future scholarship and a fascinating insight for anyone interested in the distant Celtic past.
Observances, Feasts, and Scripts
Observances, Feasts, and Scripts is the first monograph written in English to offer a comprehensive analysis of the varieties of zhai, a multifaceted term with deep historical and religious significance in Chinese Buddhism. Drawing on a wide array of sources—including canonical texts, apocryphal writings, hagiographies, and ritual documents—this book unveils zhai as a ritual complex encompassing temporary observances, communal feasts, and modes of interaction between the seen and unseen realms. These practices, rooted in both lay and monastic traditions, illustrate the intricate interplay between food, community, and ritual in Indian and Chinese Buddhism. Part I traces how Indian Buddhist temporary observances were adapted, debated, and reimagined in the Chinese context. Part II explains the sponsored feast as a mechanism for lay-monastic interaction and merit-making. It also examines how Buddhists engaged with deities and spirit saints through remote invitations and ritual offerings. Part III focuses on "scripts" used for receiving the Eightfold Observance and conducting sponsored feasts, thus revealing their evolution from simple master-disciple interactions to complex communal events. Observances, Feasts, and Scripts is an essential resource for scholars interested in food-related religious practices and the history of Buddhism. Through its meticulous examination of Chinese, Pali, Sanskrit, and Tibetan materials, the book offers a fresh perspective on Chinese Buddhism as an intercultural endeavor. It sheds light on relevant scholastic debates, the creation of apocrypha, translation strategies, and ritual innovations in medieval China. By moving beyond teleological frameworks such as Sinicization, it emphasizes the agency of cultural, doctrinal, and social factors in shaping these practices. Additionally, it engages with the cognitive dimensions of ritual and highlights ritual logic as a cross-cultural analytical lens.
200 Years of Locomotive Development
Since Richard Trevithick’s first forays into the development of the steam locomotive, Britain’s engineers have been at the forefront of railway technology. Often innovative, and sometimes unfairly maligned, the country’s locomotive engineers continually broke new barriers in traction technology although not everything was successful. From the earliest simple steam locomotives to the latest diesel and electric engines, Britain had led the way in railway locomotion, although competition from European, Japanese and American manufacturers sometimes exceeded what British engineers had achieved. In this new book, industrial and railway historian Dr Richard Marks provides fresh insights into Britain’s role in railway locomotive design and technology, and examines the highlights of British developments from Trevithick’s Coalbrookdale locomotive to the Brush Class 60 diesel locomotive. Based upon new research this useful primer aims to start the reader on a journey of discovery, unravelling some of the myths which have arisen around Britain’s railway history and explaining in an easy to follow narrative why some potentially advantageous developments failed to live up to expectations. In this new survey of 200 years of British locomotive history to accompany the Railway 200 celebrations, the reader is presented with a compelling and easy to read introduction to a complex, but intriguing subject.
