A Philosopher Looks at the Weather
From barometers to the famous BBC shipping forecast, we have – over the centuries – developed the means to predict, harness, and shield ourselves from what is happening in the atmosphere. Attitudes about the planet's weather, as well as about human identity, have thereby taken on new meanings. In an era of climatic anxiety, what weather is and how weather behaves have taken on additional currency. Benjamin Hale weaves together philosophy and anecdote into a many-faceted exploration of this powerful force that shapes who we are and how we think about our place in the world. He argues that in our drive to 'scientize' weather, with all the technological advances in managing, anticipating, and understanding it, we also risk distancing ourselves from weather and losing a complete sense of what it is. This entertaining book reminds us that the weather is and always will be in some sense outside our control, and that consequently we are and forever will be learning to live alongside it.
Řeka odnáší stíny stromů
Řeka odnáší stíny stromů je sbírkou tiché, všímavé poezie, která vyrůstá z každodenního okouzlení krajinou a městskou periférií. Filip Hrazdil v krátkých, přesných básních, volně inspirovaných poetikou haiku, zachycuje pomíjivost okamžiků, ročních dob i lidské blízkosti. Minimalistický jazyk a zdrženlivá obraznost dávají vyniknout tomu, co obvykle zůstává nepovšimnuto – tichu, paměti a křehké přítomnosti.
Králův temný vzkaz 1: Osvobodit temnotu
Mladý válečník jménem Rezkin, vychován a vycvičen v dokonalém ústraní v tajné pevnosti na okraji severské divočiny království Ashai, je nečekaně vržen do vnějšího světa, když strašlivá bitva zničí vše, co zná. Aniž by chápal účel svého života a vyzbrojen mistrovskými zbraněmi, které mu tajemným způsobem odkázal sám zesnulý král, se mladý válečník pustí po jediné stopě, kterou má. Z bitvy unikl jeden elitní válečník, který by mohl vědět, kdo Rezkin je a kdo nese odpovědnost za masakr v mladíkově domově.
Growing Up with Addiction
Growing up with a parent’s addiction leaves ripple effects that can be felt well into adulthood. The trauma of familial dysfunction can weave into the fabric of your life, affecting relationships, parenting and work, and even leading to you questioning your own worth, mistrusting intimacy and feeling disconnected from yourself.
But it doesn’t have to stay this way. In this nurturing book, clinical psychologist Dr Tian Dayton draws on expertise from decades working with adult children of alcoholics, as well as her own personal experience, to empower you to embrace recovery and break the chain of intergenerational dysfunction. She will guide you as you examine how addiction shaped your family, understand the imprint it left on your childhood and discover tools to heal and thrive. You will learn to process attachment wounds, reconnect with your body, regulate emotions and move towards post-traumatic growth.
Grounded in research, enriched by client narratives and filled with practical exercises based on Dr Dayton's own Relational Trauma Repair (RTR) model, this book will allow you to recover from buried hurt and give your inner child a voice, illuminating the path towards a better future for yourself and your loved ones.
Dragonborn
A New York Times bestseller, meet the electric new fantasy series for fans of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief and Impossible Creatures, perfect for readers aged 9-12.
Life is no fun for Alex Evans. Ever since her dad's death, her overprotective mother has smothered her with unbreakable rules and unspoken fears. When the frustration inside Alex finally gets too big to bear, it rushes to the surface.
And flames spill from her mouth.
Because Alex is a dragon. One of the many who live among us, unless something awakens their true nature. Led by the mighty Oliphos to the legendary island of Skralla, Alex must now train alongside fierce, frightening dragon children, if she is to unlock the power of her birthright.
But other dragons are rising too. Drak Midna, the greatest dragon of all, is preparing a war against the human world, and Alex has to be good enough for this fight, or we all will burn . . .
The Coming Storm
A prescient, thoughtful and chilling examination of the current state of the world.
If there are lessons from history, now is the time when we need to heed them, so that we do not end up in another Great Power war because of the fatal combinations of jingoism, fear, fatalism, and sheer stupidity that set off the first major war of the 20th century.
The great majority of people alive today have come of age in a world of remarkable stability, presided over by either one or two superpowers. This is not to say the world has been peaceful; but it has to an extent been predictable. As an increasing number of Great Powers now jostle for regional supremacy our world has become more fragile, unpredictable – and combustible.
To understand the threats that face us in this complex new terrain, we must look to the lessons of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century – a time when Great Powers clashed and sought regional dominance, when nationalism and populism were on the rise, and many felt that globalization had failed them: a time, in other words, that carries eerie parallels with our own.
