Falešné burgundské
"Laurent Ponsot, producent vyhlášených vín, vypráví příběh jako z hollywoodského filmu: multimilionový podvod zahrnující nejlepší světová vína, oklamané odborníky a bohaté sběratele, zdánlivě bezúhonného podvodníka a nepravděpodobného hrdinu, který se ocitne v centru vyšetřování FBI.
Všechno začíná na burgundských vinicích, když se Ponsot dozví o podivné newyorské aukci. Za více než půl milionu dolarů se tam mají dražit láhve z jeho panství, jejichž ročník neexistuje. Z principu a ve jménu letité odbornosti opouští poklidné Burgundsko a vydává se na dlouhou odyseu kalnými vodami padělatelství."
Runaway Wolf - A szökött farkas
Nadie menekül... egyenesen egy hamburgi rockfesztivál backstage-éig, és Conrad Coleman, a Runaway Wolf zenekar basszusgitárosának karjai közé.
Csatlakozik a bandához, és hamar megköttetik a fogadás: ha a turné ideje alatt sikerül elkerülnie Conrad ágyát, magukkal viszik őt Los Angelesbe — és szabad lesz.
A lány hamar rájön, hogy nehezebb dolga akad, mint hitte. Három maffiaklán emberei és az Interpol egyik nagyhírű nyomozója is a sarkában van — és Conrad sem csupán egy viking külsejű, tetovált félisten, hanem egy sötét múltú, veszélyesen vonzó férfi, akinek képtelenség ellenállni.
Kennedy nyomozó egy gyilkos után lohol… egészen egy hamburgi szállodai szobáig, ahol három befolyásos nőt végeztek ki, akik egy-egy maffiaklánhoz köthetők. Kennedy tudja: a mészárlás idején volt még valaki a szobában. De vajon ő a gyilkos — vagy ártatlan?
Megkezdődik a hajsza, amely egész Európán át vezet. A nyomozás során Kennedy csak egy hackerre, egy újságíróra és egy olyan emberre számíthat a múltjából, aki mindent tud a maffiáról. De vajon mindegyikükben megbízhat? Talán épp onnan érkezik a segítség, ahonnan a legkevésbé várná.
A Runaway Wolf modern noir hangulatú romantikus krimi és maffiaregény: történet szabadságról és túlélésről, szenvedélyről és erkölcsi határhelyzetekről — ahol nem minden fekete vagy fehér, és a legveszélyesebb döntés néha a szerelem.
František Josef I. (1830–1916)
Od mladého císaře k symbolu epochy – 68 let v čele habsburské monarchie.
František Josef I. patří mezi nejdéle vládnoucí panovníky evropských dějin. Jeho téměř osmašedesátiletou vládu překonali pouze „Král Slunce“ Ludvík XIV., často opomíjený Jan II. z Lichtenštejna a v nedávné době také britská královna Alžběta II. Dlouhá desetiletí, po něž stál v čele podunajské monarchie, přinesla střední Evropě obrovské proměny. Žádná jiná hlava státu v našich dějinách nebyla během své vlády konfrontována s tak zásadní společenskou transformací jako on.
Paradoxně právě panovník známý svým konzervativním založením provedl habsburskou říši obdobím průmyslové revoluce, zrodu silné dělnické třídy, vzestupu národních emancipací a nacionalismu i postupného oslabování výsadního postavení církví. Zažil vrchol moci monarchie, její přeměnu v rakousko-uherské soustátí, následný pokles mezinárodní prestiže i vypuknutí Velké války.
Možná i proto je dnes jeho osobnost vnímána překvapivě rozporuplně – často podle toho, z jakého národního pohledu daný historik vychází. Vliv jeho stylu vlády na pozdější rozpad monarchie je nepopiratelný, nelze však opomenout ani dlouhá období relativní stability, která říši zajistil. Právě tehdy vznikal hospodářský i kulturní kapitál, z něhož těžila celá střední Evropa a který se stal jedním z kořenů pozdější nostalgie po éře c. k. monarchie.
Lze se samozřejmě ptát, zda byl František Josef I. úspěšným státníkem, nebo spíše mimořádně výkonným „vrchním úředníkem“. Jeho neochota opustit konzervativní pojetí vlády a přejít k plně zastupitelskému systému nám jednoznačnou odpověď nedává. Tak jednoduché soudy ostatně dějiny obvykle neumožňují. Naše publikace se proto pokouší postihnout širší souvislosti doby, jejímž symbolem se „stařičký císař“ stal – protože jen s dostatkem informací má smysl pokoušet se historii porozumět.
Každodenní život
Během dlouhé císařovy vlády se změnila celá společnost. Jak se projevila národní emancipace či příchod ateismu?

Na trůn nastoupil v revolučním roce 1848, zažil vznik Rakousko-Uherska i události vedoucí k Velké válce

One Baby Daddy - Egy váratlan baba (Számok és randik 3.)
Egy váratlan terhesség, egy dögös sztárhokis és egy meglepő fordulat...
„Mihez kezdesz most, hogy a csapatod kiesett a Stanley-Kupából?”
Felejtek. Felejtenem kell. El kell szabadulnom innen.
Egyetlen ember van, aki nem esik hasra attól, hogy az NHL szupersztárja vagyok. Ez a nő abban a pillanatban felkeltette az érdeklődésemet, hogy kérdőre vont, amiért körbeszaglásztam a legjobb barátom házában. Nem volt kíváncsi a magyarázkodásomra, csak játékosan szórakozott velem.
Adalyn nagyszájú, szemtelen – és tökéletesen elfeledteti velem a történteket.
Mindenütt jelen van: a városban, az álmaimban… és hirtelen azon kapom magam, hogy minden percet vele akarok tölteni.
És így is teszek.
Ez a nyár az eddigi legjobb holt idényem.
De arra nem számítottam, hogy miközben elveszek Adalynben, teherbe is ejtem.
Ráadásul még a szerelméért is meg kell küzdenem…
Add át magad egy szenvedélyes románcnak, de készülj a következményekre!

The Philosophical Foundations of Bayesianism
This book introduces students and researchers to the philosophical issues at play in the growing field of formal (or Bayesian) epistemology. It focuses not on how to do particular calculations but instead on the philosophical foundations at the convergence of belief and mathematical representation. Its central questions are: What is the nature of quantifying belief? What is the source of its norms? How is it reasonable to represent belief numerically? Accessible to those without any mathematical background, this book will become a much used classic in the field.

Kazakhstan
This thoroughly updated fourth edition of Bradt's Kazakhstan remains the only guidebook dedicated solely to the world's ninth largest country - a thrillingly fresh destination that even well-seasoned travellers will find unfamiliar and exotic. Geographically, this Central Asian state is impressively varied: choose from snow-covered peaks with excellent skiing opportunities, hiking trails through valleys, secluded lakes in the Tian Shan Mountains, endless semi-desert steppes and the Caspian Sea's blue waters. Culturally, Kazakhstan is similarly diverse, enabling visitors to enjoy authentic local hospitality from 130 ethnic groups. Kazakhstan is a modern country with a profound appreciation of its nomadic roots; petroglyph sites with ancient rock art plus the remains of Silk Road settlements testify to its varied history. Politically and socially, Kazakhstan now oscillates between east and west - a vibrancy reflected in its architecture, lifestyle and national ambitions. The small Caspian city of Aktau served as the cultural capital of the Turkic world during 2025, while the country's capital (Astana) is a statement of western-inspired modernity. Leafy Almaty, meanwhile, with its fountains and parks, remains by far the most charming (and somewhat nostalgic) city. Where you venture depends, in part, on when you visit - and every season offers something special. Late summer is best for mountain hiking, particularly in the Altai Mountains, sleeping on the shores of the Kolsai Lakes, or exploring the Caspian Sea coast. Winter is idyllic for skiing and skitouring. Spring and autumn are optimum for southern cities of Shymkent and Turkestan (where the Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yassaui is unmissable). And Baikonur Cosmodrome, of course, is best visited during a spaceport launch. Safe and politically neutral, Kazakhstan is also more accessible than ever: tourist visas are no longer required, and there are numerous direct flights from Europe. Tourist infrastructure has also significantly improved, with faster trains, more comfortable buses and efficient internal flights making it easy to get around. The new edition of Bradt's Kazakhstan covers all recent developments, including more practical information to make independent travel easier. Bradt's guidebook provides the perfect companion for all travellers, from nature lovers to cultural explorers, teenage backpackers to family groups.
Rozprávky o šikovných dievčatách, odvážnych ženách a múdrych starenách
Obvykle sa za hrdinu v živote i v rozprávke považuje muž, a to vďaka sile, bohatstvu, moci a odvahe čeliť nebezpečenstvu so zbraňou v ruke. V tejto knižke sa stretnete s podobnými hrdinskými činmi, hoci hlavnými hrdinami nie sú muži - aj žena dokáže zabiť draka, aby ochránila svoje deti, aj malé dievča zachráni život svojej sestre, obetavá žena mužovi. Všade na svete sa ženy musia postarať o rodinu, jedlo a vodu, oheň a teplo, ošatenie. Z rozprávok z celého sveta sa dozvieme, že dievčatá sú šikovné, bystré, vtipné, krásne, poslušné, ale aj namyslené či pyšné; ženy zasa láskavé, milujúce a obetavé matky, ale aj rozmarné, hlúpe, lenivé, ba aj hádavé, a stareny často osamelé a chudobné, ale zato múdre a skúsené.
Rozprávky zo šiestich kontinentov sprevádzajú ilustrácie Emílie Holečkovej Jesenskej.
Two Perfect Lies
In this taut new young adult thriller by Edgar Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author Natalie D. Richards, Clara is shocked to discover that her best friend - bright, popular Lily - has a dark side. Not only does Lily have a deadly plan, she's orchestrated every last detail to make it look like her scheme is entirely Clara's doing.
The first lie made Lily a saviour. The second framed Clara for murder.
If it weren't for Lily, Clara would still be a total outcast, shunned for her role in an incident that gave her a criminal record and ruined another girl's life. She's spent the past two years trying to escape that night, and ever since Lily Dalton befriended her, she's almost succeeded. After all, Lily's the golden girl of the high school - smart, popular, beloved by all - and as her best friend, Clara's now the bright, hard-working chemistry whiz.
But is Lily really just the good-hearted friend who saved Clara from the past? Because lately Lily has been talking about certain classmates and teachers - about wanting revenge. Do you ever think about making them pay? she asks. How would you do it? Lily has to be joking. At least that's what Clara thinks, until she finds a folder that outlines a deadly plan, including detailed steps and a list of targets in their school.
Shockingly, there's even more to Lily's plan, and it has everything to do with Clara. After all, everyone already knows what she did two years ago. Suddenly all the evidence has been turned against her, and there's no way she can prove her innocence. And the people on that list of targets? One after the next, they're meeting terrible fates, and Clara's looking guiltier by the second. It's up to Clara to find the truth and clear her name, before it's too late.
A harrowing thriller about lies and their devastating consequences, Two Perfect Lies cements Natalie D. Richards as a powerhouse of the psychological thriller genre and promises a riveting, unputdownable read.

Suriname
This thoroughly updated third edition of Bradt's Suriname remains the most detailed English-language guidebook - and the only standalone guide from a major travel publisher - to this exciting and emerging ecotourism destination. With an unrivalled nine-tenths of the thinly populated country comprising unspoilt rainforest, Suriname has much to offer wildlife enthusiasts, adventurous travellers and anyone who delights in non-mainstream destinations. A true one-off, Suriname is geographically part of South America, but politically looks mainly towards the Caribbean and is inexorably tied, linguistically and historically, to the Netherlands, its former coloniser. Peaceful and stable, the country celebrated the 50th anniversary of its independence in 2025. Its forested interior is swathed by pristine Amazonian rainforest, rich in wildlife - from monkeys to macaws, tapirs to sloths - and accessible only by air or by motorised dugout along the tropical waterways that incise it. On the coast, the capital Paramaribo is a lively, culinarily rewarding, ethnically diverse city whose historic old quarter, lined with Dutch-Creole architectural gems, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Nearby beaches offer some of the world's finest turtle-viewing sites, as well as superb aquatic and marine birdwatching, plus several impressive forest reserves. The longer you stay, the deeper you can delve. Explore various sites, including Peperpot Nature Park, along the Commewijne Plantation Loop. Marvel at 350 elaborate petroglyphs engraved into the walls of the Werehpai Caves, undiscovered by outsiders until 2004. Or visit the ruins of Jodensavanne ('Jewish Savannah'), Suriname's second-most important settlement until the early 19th century, and now its most important and intriguing historical site. Written by prolific guidebook author Philip Briggs, Bradt's Suriname offers detailed coverage of all accessible parks and reserves, gearing advice to visitors joining organised tours as well as those who prefer independent travel. It is also the first guidebook to provide a comprehensive section on the Upper Suriname River, an exciting and remote area serviced by around 20 small lodges. Despite such riches, however, tourism to this safe and friendly country remains in its infancy, making it a fabulously rewarding travel destination for those who relish the truly wild and offbeat.

Happy Hours
FOR more than 40 years Mike Critchley has been on a journey through the character-packed pubs of the British Isles. From spit-and-sawdust backstreet boozers through to majestic Victorian drinking palaces, he has chronicled every new visit in a little blue notebook kept since he turned 18. In Happy Hours, Mike recalls many of the highlights – and a few low points – of that ‘never-ending pub crawl’ in a book that charts significant changes to the way we drink and world about us. There is a pub for all seasons, with potted histories of Britain’s finest pub buildings, observations of legendary landlords and landladies, recollections of colourful elbow-bending customers and an appreciation of good beer. Happy Hours weaves in many personal anecdotes and aspects of social history and is delivered with a large dollop of northern humour. It is laced with the wit and wisdom of many of the folk Mike has had the crack with in bar rooms over the past five decades. At a time when we are losing pubs hand over fist due to a multitude of reasons, this book is a timely reminder of the importance of these wonderful institutions and community hubs, and the role they play in society.

Spirits of Empire
The Declaration of Independence depicted Native Americans as bloodthirsty savages, and from its founding the United States aimed to expand westward by seizing Indigenous lands. While white settlers saw these conquests as victories for “true religion,” native people invoked the spirits in their own defense. Some claimed the powers of Christianity, while others drew on the English-language concept of religion to redefine their own ancestral traditions. As all sorts of people struggled to make their way within this new empire, a broad variety of new religious movements emerged. In this groundbreaking book, historian Tisa Wenger shows how the history of American religion unfolded on these settler colonial foundations. The imperatives of US empire, she argues, shaped the category and traditions of what we know as religion. Wenger also introduces the concept of “settler secularism” to explain how white settlers defined and managed religion in their own image, in order to facilitate their own rule. She shows how the concept of “religion”—whether as a special thing that requires protection or a mark of the primitive that must be transcended—has most often served the interests of those in power. Ultimately, settler colonialism organized American religion and created religious hierarchies that still influence the United States today.
