The Burning Library
'An exciting and multi-layered academic thriller that reads with the pace and complexity of a feminist The Da Vinci Code' Irish Independent 'A race against time through ancient manuscripts where every revelation comes with a price' Claire Douglas, bestselling author of The New Neighbours_______________________________For over a century two rival organisations of women have gone to deadly lengths to secure a precious scrap of fraying embroidery in the hopes of finding the original medieval manuscript from which it was torn. There's the Order of St Katherine: devoted to the belief that women must pull strings in the shadows in order to exercise covert control. And the Fellowship of the Larks: determined to amass as many overt positions of power for women as possible . . . while making sure their methods never come to light. When trailblazing paleographer Dr Anya Brown is headhunted by the exclusive Institute of Manuscript Studies at St Andrews, she's unaware that she is in grave danger - her new employers are the Larks, and they'll stop at nothing to achieve their mission. As Dr Brown is drawn deeper into this ancient web, events spiral beyond her control. To uncover the truth, and escape with her life, she must summon all her expertise to decipher a series of messages that have lain hidden for centuries. An exhilarating and page-turning race against time, The Burning Library whisks you from the hallowed cloisters of Oxford, Cambridge and St Andrews to the stunning medieval Italian city of Verona. _______________________________'Blending academia, history and danger, this high-stakes thriller will have your heart pounding' Woman & Home'Macmillan is every bit as thrilling a writer as Dan Brown' Daily Mail

Soviet Tanks at Stalingrad 1942–43
Examines and analyses how the Soviet tank forces that fought at Stalingrad were rejuvenated in the months leading up to the battle, and the role they played in this iconic campaign. The Stalingrad campaign was a major turning point of World War II. The German Sixth Army’s 22 divisions and 250,000 troops were encircled and destroyed, while the Soviet 62nd Army’s desperate defense of the city and the suffering of the starving German troops receives much justifiable attention. Here, Soviet armor expert William E. Hiestand draws attention to the less-covered element of the battle: the reborn Soviet tank and mechanized corps that delivered the death blow to Hitler’s hopes. He explains how in summer 1942, the Soviet tank forces were failing to reach their potential; despite being equipped with superb T-34 and heavily armored KV-1 tanks, the Red Army’s newly formed tank corps were unable to integrate their armored thrusts with supporting infantry and artillery, and their disjoined attacks were repeatedly shattered. By November 19, however, Soviet organization, command and control, training, and tactics had matured, allowing the Fifth Tank Army to launch the decisive penetration through the Romanian Third Army. Packed with rare archive photos and superb profiles of the tanks involved, this book shows that it was at Stalingrad that the Red Army’s armored spearhead evolved into a force that could dominate the Eastern Front.

Every politician and military expert needs to read this book'IAIN DALE'Vivid reporting'Economist'Reads like a real-life geopolitical thriller . . . The fact it doesn't feel like scaremongering says a lot about the state of the world'JONN ELLEDGE______________The Next World War takes readers behind the scenes of the most dangerous era of international tensions since the end of the Cold War, as countries and military forces prepare for potential large-scale combat on a scale unseen since 1945. From the corridors of power in Washington, Whitehall, Moscow and Beijing to the new frontlines of conflict in Ukraine, Taiwan, cyberspace and even the far side of the moon, Peter Apps unflinchingly explores the fault lines where global peace is already starting to unravel. Featuring the voices of the commanders, diplomats and technologists already shaping history, as well as the nervous conscripts and ordinary people directly caught up in events, The Next World War examines the real-world effects of this new era of global confrontation. For some - including millions of citizens told to stockpile food and water and prepare for potential mass disruption - it still may not feel entirely real. But for Russia, China and their growing 'axis of upheaval', today's conflicts represent a growing opportunity to reshape the world as they would like it - leading to potential disaster for the West if it cannot heed the warnings in time. From the return of Cold War-style atomic threats to new forms of sabotage and 'hybrid warfare', the battle for global dominance is already firmly underway. The Next World War is the book you need to understand the growing precariousness of our current situation - and the unending battle to stop it escalating past the point of no return.

Catch Her If You Can UK
#1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey is back with an all-new marriage of convenience, friends-to-lovers sports romance about a baseball catcher and the burlesque club owner he can’t get out of his head. Madden Donahue, the newest catcher for the Yankees, has been in love with Eve Mitchell since high school, but for some mysterious reason, the burlesque club owner always turns him down. That never stopped him from being her self-appointed protector. Case in point, now that Eve’s sister has left Eve with her two children indefinitely, Madden steps in with a proposition—marry him for the much needed health benefits. Eve has secretly harbored feelings for Madden all along, but there’s one problem—her best friend Skylar called dibs on him when they were fourteen. Eve has always put their friendship above all else, and she’s not willing to risk losing Skylar over a man. Raised by the local strip club owner, Eve is woefully short on friends and treasures the ones she has. But with Skylar happily paired off, Eve finds herself accepting Madden’s proposal—on the condition that their marriage remains strictly private. She’s not about to let her unique profession and maligned reputation destroy Madden’s shiny new career. Madden won’t let Eve get away that easily, though. What starts as a marriage of convenience soon ignites into something much hotter, and now it’s up to Madden to convince Eve that their connection is far more than a business arrangement. As the passion builds, can their fake marriage become the real deal?

Na rok v zahraničí
Pravidlo bolo jasné: nezamilovať sa do spolubývajúceho
Keď devätnásťročná Abbey Blyová dostane príležitosť študovať rok v Londýne, je to pre ňu perfektná šanca vymaniť sa spod vplyvu milovaného, no prehnane starostlivého otca. Sloboda a nové začiatky však dostanú nečakanú podobu – jej noví spolubývajúci sú všetci chlapci. Očarujúci, vtipní, nesmierne atraktívni a hlavne zakázaní! Také je pravidlo po nepríjemnej dráme s bývalou spolubývajúcou.
Abbey nikdy nebola typ dievčaťa, ktoré porušuje pravidlá. Čoskoro však klame otcovi o svojej životnej situácii a zamiluje sa nie do jedného, ale do dvoch mužov, ktorých nemôže mať: do svojho spolubývajúceho ragbistu a zamysleného hudobníka, ktorý už má priateľku. Nehovoriac o tom, že pri školskom výskume sa zapletie do škandálu spojeného s britskou šľachtickou rodinou.
Ak existuje nejaká nádej, že Abbey nájde v Londýne lásku, odpovede alebo budúcnosť, bude sa musieť rozhodnúť, ktoré pravidlá stojí za to porušiť...

Tvůj mozek je tvůj osud
Vrcholná kniha životního díla MUDr. Josefa Jonáše spojuje ověřené poznatky s moderními objevy. Obsahuje jeho praktické lékařské zkušenosti z nejpodstatnějších oblastí, kterými se zabýval a mezi něž patřily psychické problémy, negativní emoce, stres a detoxikace organismu. „Vznik mozku si neuvědomujeme, ale během života ho můžeme ovlivnit a různými způsoby podporovat. V této knize nejde jen
o tělesný orgán, ale o naše vědomí, myšlení, a především o způsoby, jak je používáme a můžeme rozvíjet. Významnou pasáží je také intuice a její praktické možnosti. Lidem, kteří se věnují lidské psýché, je zřejmé, že v mozku máme dva hlavní systémy, které spolupracují, proplétají se a doplňují. Jeden se stará o to, aby naše fyzické tělo mohlo fungovat, a druhý souvisí s naším duševním životem, s inteligencí a mentalitou. Náš organismus je úžasně stvořen k tomu, aby sám sebe regeneroval a obnovoval. S věkem se tyto schopnosti zhoršují, až se kvůli nahromadění různých toxických vlivů zastaví úplně. Tato kniha ukazuje možnosti, jak pomoci mozku fyzicky i mentálně regenerovat.“

Nabízí řešení, která fungují nejen na papíře, ale i v reálném životě. Je jistou odpovědí na výzvy, které přináší demografické stárnutí společnosti, postupně se zhoršující funkční zdatnost populace a s ní spojené dopady na kvalitu života i na zdravotní a sociální systémy péče.
Pokud chceme jako společnost zachovat jejich udržitelnost, musíme začít každý sám u sebe. Nemusí to být nic složitého a je možné začít hned. Následující stránky vás mohou nasměrovat na vaši cestu.
