Už chodím do škôlky (Kalendár má 53 týždňov)
Projekt „UŽ CHODÍM DO ŠÔLKY“ prináša vizuálnu istotu do sveta vašich detí, pretože vďaka kalendáru a nálepkám budú presne vedieť, či ich čaká deň v škôlke, obľúbený krúžok alebo návšteva u starých rodičov. Celoročný kalendár sa viaže k dátumom, a teda má prispôsobené ilustrácie podľa ročných období, prázdnin a aktivít v škôlke.
Pomocou obrovskej sady viac ako 700 originálnych nálepiek, ktoré pokrývajú denné rutiny, emócie aj špeciálne odmeny, táto interaktívna pomôcka pomáha ukončiť ranný plač a stres pri odchode z domu alebo pri lúčení v škôlke. Tento systém pomáha deťom s ľahkosťou zvládnuť adaptáciu na škôlkarské povinnosti a buduje ich zdravé sebavedomie cez pocit úspechu zo splnených úloh. Okrem emočnej pohody navyše hravou formou rozvíja časovú orientáciu, jemnú motoriku a emocionálnu inteligenciu.
Tento interaktívny systém je ideálny pre všetky deti v predškolskom veku (3 – 7 rokov), ktoré potrebujú získať štruktúru dňa a osamostatniť sa v ranných rutinách. Vďaka svojmu jasnému vizuálnemu spracovaniu je neoceniteľnou pomôckou aj pre deti so špeciálnymi výchovno-vzdelávacími potrebami, najmä pre deti s ADHD, poruchami autistického spektra (PAS) alebo deti s oneskoreným vývojom reči, ktoré potrebujú svet vnímať skôr cez obrazy než cez slová.
A World Appears
From the best-selling author of How to Change Your Mind, a pioneering search for consciousness in the brain and beyond.
A World Appears is the story of the quest to solve the greatest mystery in nature: consciousness. How does it feel to be you with your own personal feelings, thoughts and experiences? Every one of us is intimately familiar with consciousness, but no one knows how - or why - it came to be that three pounds of grey matter can generate a subjective point of view.
The early 1990s marked the birth of a new science of consciousness, based on the assumption that the phenomenon could be explained in terms of brain activity, but that effort is faltering, and wilder ideas, such as panpsychism, are now getting a hearing. Indeed, there is now reason to doubt that 'objective science' as we have known it since Galileo has the right tools to plumb first-person experience. A World Appears takes Michael Pollan from the laboratories where scientists are searching for the neural correlates of consciousness to encounters with philosophers and novelists and Buddhist monks, whom he finds have just as much to teach us about consciousness, if not more.
A story that begins in a brain lab in Seattle ends, of all places, in a cave in the mountains of New Mexico, where the author discovers that explaining consciousness may be less urgent than learning to practice it in our everyday lives.
Az elásott csatabárd
Minden rendszer összeomlik. Minden társadalom megrendül. Minden világ véget ér.
A Föderáció tekintélyuralmi rendszerében összeesküvést szőnek, hogy meggyilkolják és lecseréljék az elnököt, aki rendre új testekbe tölti fel az elméjét, hogy megőrizze hatalmát. Mindeközben Nyugat-Európa perifériáján, ahol átadták a kormányzást a látszólag hatékonyabb, objektívebb és békésebb elnöki mesterséges intelligenciáknak, egy kísérleti elme meghibásodik, és azzal fenyeget, hogy olyan láncreakciót indít el, amely elhozhatja a nyugati világ végét.
A baljós eseményekkel egy időben a Föderációban élő Lilja, a zseniális tudós, akinek a találmánya lehet a kulcs a látszólag halhatatlan elnök megdöntéséhez, menekülni kezd a törvény elől, és megpróbál kiszabadulni a rendszer felügyeletének szinte kijátszhatatlan védelmi hálójából. Sorsa összefonódik más lázadókéval a világ különböző pontjain, és hamarosan kockázatos szövetségek, titkos akciók és halálos következmények közt zajlik a harc fajunk túléléséért.
Az elásott csatabárd vad tempójú, mélyen rétegzett futurisztikus thriller a geopolitikai kémkedések izgalmas jövőbeli világából, az emberi szabadságot megfojtó diktatórikus rendszerek kemény kritikájával. Ray Nayler Az óceán szeme és a Hugo-díjas Mamutrezervátum óriási nemzetközi sikere után egy újabb fontos és rendkívül elgondolkodtató könyvvel jelentkezik.

Defiance
An unprecedented account of resistance from a young Syrian woman who risked everything to rebel against the authoritarian regime - and her own familyLoubna Mrie was raised a staunch Syrian Alawite. The Alawites, an insular ethnic group, lived under oppression until 1970, when a coup saw Hafez al-Assad seize total power in Syria. Loubna''s grandfather helped plan this coup, her father was an enforcer and assassin of the Assad regime, and her community revered the new president with a near-religious devotion.Yet when the Arab Spring reached Syria in 2011, Loubna found herself at an anti-government demonstration and was forever changed by what she witnessed. Her jeans splattered with fellow protesters'' blood, she plunged into a life of activism, becoming a traitor to both the regime and her abusive father. The consequences were horrifying.Defiance is a searing, ground-level view of survival and resistance at the flash point of the most visible and least understood war in recent history, only ending in 2024. And it is told from a perspective that is rarely considered, let alone heard - that of a Syrian Alawite woman.
Janacek's Sinfonietta
A definitive study of Janácek's Sinfonietta, tracing its creation, reception, and rise to international prominence. This book provides a musical 'biography' of Leoš Janácek's (1854-1928) most famous orchestral piece - his Sinfonietta - by analysing its sources, composition, reception history, recordings and musical component parts. The most up-to-date research on the genesis and performance history of the work, it considers in detail Janácek's orchestral writing, the inspiration and genesis of the Sinfonietta, a documentation of all the surviving sources for the work, the work's performance history during Janácek's lifetime and following his death until the end of the Second World War, including press reviews and relevant correspondence. The book also examines the growth in the worldwide popularity of the Sinfonietta. This evolved from cautious and hostile critical responses to the premiere recording in 1946 to its gradual acceptance as one of the key works of the 1920s, largely thanks to the advocacy of conductors whose work is considered in detail, alongside other significant recordings. Questions of performance, rehearsal, interpretation and the musical text are considered in a wide-ranging interview with the conductor Jakub Hruša, and a concluding chapter provides a detailed commentary on the music itself. The book includes a valuable appendix describing the annotated scores used by conductors such as Otto Klemperer, František Neumann and Henry Wood, as well as a comprehensive discography.

On the Couch
In the late 1800s, Sigmund Freud began to develop radical theories about sexuality, dreams and childhood experiences. Not only were his ideas revolutionary, but they also initiated a new discipline with various – often competing – schools of thought. In this groundbreaking book, Andrew Jamieson unpacks ten of psychotherapy’s most profound principles and illuminates them through the biographies of twenty remarkable people. From Pablo Picasso’s chaotic life, which illustrates Freud’s concept of the unconscious, to the origins of Nelson Mandela’s compassion, which exemplify Carl Jung’s notion of individuation; from John Bowlby’s attachment theory, as seen through the lives of Virginia Woolf and Franz Kafka, to Melanie Klein’s views on the relationship between love and hate, as revealed through the experiences of Cary Grant, On the Couch throws new light on the motivations and desires of some of our most memorable personalities. Other lives examined include Josephine Baker, Nicolaus Copernicus, Charles Darwin, Viktor Frankl, Ernest Hemingway, Burt Hellinger, Emma Jung, Angela Merkel, Marilyn Monroe, Vladimir Putin, Ludwig Wittgenstein and W. B. Yeats.
The Invisible Years
“It’s impossible to get a single answer from the past. It’s not a key to anything. It’s just a place we go to trick ourselves.”Andrea and Julián haven’t seen one another in twenty-one years—not since the tragic, fateful night their senior year of high school that marked their group of friends forever. A startling phone call brings the two together again in Houston, where they begin to unravel the truth of that year, picking open long scabbed-over wounds from their upper-class adolescence in 1990s Bolivia and the scandal that ripped them apart. A writer unhappy in his career and his marriage, Julián has been novelizing the past for his next book, trying to make meaning out of the events that changed the course of their lives forever. “I’d thought that writing about that time would free me, relieve the burden of the invisible years,” he writes, “but often it seems that it’s done the reverse.” Juxtaposing the naive invincibility of adolescence with the grasping uncertainties of adulthood, The Invisible Years deftly weaves a coming-of-age tale that leaves the reader hanging on every word, even as they know how the cards fall in the end.
How to Listen
A lively new translation of Plutarch’s charming and timeless essay on how to be a good listener—and why listening is essential to learning and living wellListening is a skill—even an art—and it’s essential to learning and to life. Indeed, as Plutarch writes in How to Listen, “listening well is the foundation for living well.” In this volume, Jeffrey Beneker presents a vivid and accessible new translation of Plutarch’s classic essay about how to become a skilled listener, complete with an inviting introduction and the original Greek on facing pages. Plutarch is most famous as the author of Parallel Lives, a series of biographies of Greek and Roman statesmen. But he was also an expert on teaching and learning and How to Listen is arguably one of his best pedagogical works. A proponent of active listening well before its time, Plutarch explains the skills we need—and the obstacles and distractions we must overcome—to become effective listeners. Good listening requires, above all, an acknowledgement of our own ignorance in certain subjects and a commitment to gaining knowledge. We must set aside pride and envy so we can respect the expertise of others. We must also train ourselves to see through style and focus on substance, to discriminate between weak and strong arguments, and to criticize ideas fairly and accurately. Filled with shrewd insights and advice, How to Listen shows how to cultivate a skill that everyone who wants to learn and live well must master.

Making Money in the Early Middle Ages
An examination of coined money and its significance to rulers, aristocrats and peasants in early medieval EuropeBetween the end of the Roman Empire in the fifth century and the economic transformations of the twelfth, coined money in western Europe was scarce and high in value, difficult for the majority of the population to make use of. And yet, as Rory Naismith shows in this illuminating study, coined money was made and used throughout early medieval Europe. It was, he argues, a powerful tool for articulating people’s place in economic and social structures and an important gauge for levels of economic complexity. Working from the premise that using coined money carried special significance when there was less of it around, Naismith uses detailed case studies from the Mediterranean and northern Europe to propose a new reading of early medieval money as a point of contact between economic, social, and institutional history. Naismith examines structural issues, including the mining and circulation of metal and the use of bullion and other commodities as money, and then offers a chronological account of monetary development, discussing the post-Roman period of gold coinage, the rise of the silver penny in the seventh century and the reconfiguration of elite power in relation to coinage in the tenth and eleventh centuries. In the process, he counters the conventional view of early medieval currency as the domain only of elite gift-givers and intrepid long-distance traders. Even when there were few coins in circulation, Naismith argues, the ways they were used—to give gifts, to pay rents, to spend at markets—have much to tell us.
Tara Bernerd: A Design Journey
Bernerd is known for creating interiors that have a very special sense of place. Firm in her belief that 'good design transports us without us being entirely conscious of the fact,' she aspires to take us out of the day-to-day to places we don t want to leave and give us the desire to bring a piece of that back home. Committed to the utility of good design, Bernerd works on an increasingly global platform with projects around the world. Hailed by the Financial Times for combining 'impeccable craftsmanship and timeless style,' her keen eye for composition and detailing and remarkable flair for color and texture make her one of the most sought-after interior designers in the world. Renowned for her insight on the allure of the exotic, the designer invites the reader to apply lessons from their own wanderings. She utilizes her sophisticated eye for detail, carefully selecting books, candles, glassware, and trays in order to enhance every element of design. Beautifully illustrated with stunning images of Bernerd s latest projects, a lifetime of learning and collaborating is employed to great effect in the sun-dappled rooms of a summer home in Ibiza, and in a resort in the Riviera Maya that combines vernacular architecture with modern amenity in an elegant and thoughtful way. This luxurious volume celebrates the breadth of Bernerd s ambition 'to create meaningful, timeless, and seductive spaces that will linger in someone s mind and heart.'
