Nájdi mláďa: Farma
V tomto originálne spracovanom leporele čaká na deti zábava aj spoznávanie. Vďaka prepojení dvoch leporel rôznych veľkostí budú deti na základe jasného a krátkeho popisu hľadať správne mláďatá zvierat na farme. Pevné stránky sú ideálne pre malé ručičky a robia z tejto knihy perfektného spoločníka na jedno z prvých zoznámení sa so svetom zvierat. Malé deti si precvičia jemnú motoriku a pršteky, spoznajú prvé slovíčka a zoznámia sa so zvieratami a ich mláďatami.
Nájdi, kam patrí
Leporelo, s ktorým je učenie tvarov a prvých slov jedna veľká farebná zábava! Deti hľadajú správne miesto na umiestnenie farebných tvarov - žltého kolieska, zeleného trojuholníka a oranžového štvorca - a vkladajú ich do výrezov v obrázkoch, čím ich dokončujú. Pomôžu tak ozdobiť motýlie krídlo, rakete nasadiť špičku či doplniť stred kvetiny. Tvary sú pevne pripevnené na farebných stuhách, takže sa nestratia a deti sa s nimi môžu hrať znova a znova. Okrem precvičovania jemnej motoriky a logického myslenia sa deti na stránkach zoznámia aj s prvými jednoduchými slovami. Veselé ilustrácie poľskej výtvarníčky Susie Hammer robia z tejto knihy ideálne prvé leporelo na spoznávanie tvarov a rozvoj slovnej zásoby už od 1 roka.

Fundamentals of Biological Psychology
This undergraduate biological psychology textbook offers a critical introduction to brain and behavior. Psychology lectures open with 'the brain is the most complex and mysterious object in the universe', only to quickly reduce that complexity by teaching simplified models. This textbook challenges these narratives by focusing on the latest neurotechnological advances, to clarify the limits of current models, and to inspire the development of safe and accessible technologies for human use. Its central aim is to promote critical thinking and inspire students to pose novel research questions that build from current advances. It is an ideal textbook for instructors who are eager to push beyond a conventional introductory curriculum. Beautifully illustrated and full of practical applications, it is accompanied by teaching slides and a test bank.
Arab Philosophical Trends
This book studies the responses of the founders of twentieth-century Arab philosophical schools to the question of (primarily Western) modernisation in the Arab world, particularly to its relationship with Arab heritage. For some intellectuals, there are calls for a new Nahda or Renaissance, for the Arabs to modernise on their own terms within their own heritage, in various forms. Others are more interested in choosing Western modernisation and accepting the inevitable consequences of secularisation.

Categories
In ancient and modern Western thought, the problem of the nature of categories has been inseparable from arguments about the nature of selfhood; about how knowledge is organised; about how power should be distributed; and about how history should be understood. For Plato, Forms belonging to a timeless order of being played the role of categories or fundamental concepts; for Aristotle categories were immanent in things; for Kant they were a priori logical structures of our consciousness; and for Hegel they were dynamic, dialectical inter-related ideas. In Categories, O’Sullivan shows how these answers have gone forward into the contemporary era, and identifies three key schools of thought that have developed since Hegel in particular. He explains modern thought as a tension between a desire for a single dominant perspective, whether scientific or phenomenological; a belief in irretrievable fragmentation; and an effort to find a middle ground.
Ripples in the Lake
Detective Ran Dongdong has two problems. One is the dead young woman with a missing hand, and the other is her husband. The first to be called to the scene when the body is found floating near a lakeside luxury hotel, she begins an investigation that soon leads her into a web centred on the scandalous affairs of a powerful businessman. When she begins to see echoes of the case everywhere, including in her personal relations, she can’t resist interrogating her own marriage. But will the resonances set off a chain reaction in her life that she can’t control?
Athena's Sisters
Athena's Sisters transforms our understanding of Classical Athenian culture and society by approaching its institutions—kinship, slavery, the economy, social organisation—from women's perspectives. It argues that texts on dedications and tombstones set up by women were frequently authored by those women. This significant body of women's writing offers direct insights into their experiences, values, and emotions. With men often absent, women redefined the boundaries of the family in dialogue with patriarchal legal frameworks. Beyond male social and political structures, women defined their identities and relationships through their own institutions. By focusing on women's engagement with other women, rather than their relationships to men, this timely and necessary book reveals the richness and dynamism of women's lives and their remarkable capacity to shape Athenian society and history.
Becoming Prayer
Inspired by a vivid account of St Francis – where he didn’t merely pray but became prayer – Becoming Prayer introduces readers to the heart of Franciscan spirituality. Drawing on the enduring wisdom of Francis, Clare and generations of Franciscans, including voices like Richard Rohr and Ilia Delio, it offers a rich and accessible introduction to prayer as a way of life. From moments of thanksgiving and praise to silent contemplation, readers will learn how Franciscans aim to pray not just in church, but in every moment. Simon Cocksedge and Nicholas Alan Worssam explore communal practices such as the Daily Office and Eucharist, and delve into prayer rooted in Scripture – through the Passion, the Stations of the Cross, and the Rosary. They also embrace the stillness of solitude: night time reflection, silence and the Jesus Prayer. Rooted in a tradition that speaks powerfully to today’s world, and published in a milestone year for Franciscans globally, this is an invitation to an ancient yet ever-renewing journey of prayer.
Protestantism, Revolution and Scottish Political Thought
During the Scottish Revolution (1637-1651), royalists and Covenanters appealed to Scottish law, custom and traditional views on kingship to debate the limits of King Charles I’s authority. But they also engaged with the political ideas of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Protestant and Catholic intellectuals beyond the British Isles. This book explores the under-examined European context for Scottish political thought by analysing how royalists and Covenanters adapted Lutheran, Calvinist, and Catholic political ideas to their own debates about church and state. In doing so, it argues that Scots advanced languages of political legitimacy to help solve a crisis about the doctrines, ceremonies and polity of their national church. It therefore reinserts the importance of ecclesiology to the development of early modern political theory.
The War to End All Wars
During World War I, New Jersey played a prominent role in the manufacturing of war-related munitions, created the infrastructure necessary to train and mobilize troops, and supplied a portion of the manpower necessary to fight overseas. Without the support of New Jersey’s industrial base, the war effort of the United States may very well have failed. Contributions from New Jersey ranged from artillery rounds from Amatol, fuses from Bloomfield, shells from Lyndhurst, gun carriages (Singer), aircraft engines (Duesenberg), Handley Page Bombers from Elizabeth, and ship building (New York Shipbuilding and ELCO). Over 140,000 New Jerseyans served during the war, and the state was home to 38 military installations by the end of the war, including Camp Dix. Troops from New Jersey included National Guard units activated and assigned to the 29th Division that trained at Camp McClellan, Alabama, and National Army soldiers (draftee) assigned to the 78th Division that trained at Camp Dix. New Jersey-based units from the 29th and 78th Infantry Divisions would fight in the Meuse-Argonne offensive. Women, too, underwent training in New Jersey, in preparation to serve in the Army Signal Corps, while women from the state volunteered to serve with aid organizations including the Red Cross, and raised money for the war effort. In the post-war years, over 160 monuments were constructed across New Jersey to memorialize the war dead and honor the veterans who served in the Great War, including several of the famous “Spirit of the American Doughboy” statues produced by E. M. Viquesney. New Jersey mothers and widows would travel in pilgrimages to the battlefields and cemeteries of France, such as the Meuse-Argonne American Cemetery, as well as to Brookwood cemetery in Great Britain to visit the graves of their loved ones in the 1930s as part of the Gold Star Mothers and Widows Pilgrimage. This book will for the first time reveal the full extent of New Jersey’s pivotal role in America’s war effort during the Great War, and will shed light on prominent figures and their connections to New Jersey, such as Dr. Fred Albee, the father of bone grafting, Cecil Dorrian, the first American female War Reporter in World War I, Amabel Roberts, the first American nurse from New Jersey to die during the war in France, and Lillian Marx, who danced and sang in Newark during war support donation events.
The Spirit of Aristophanes
The Spirit of Aristophanes is a wide-ranging collection of new studies of ancient literature and culture from fifth-century drama to the Roman novel. The essays use an array of approaches that will appeal to scholars and students interested in classical studies, gender and sexuality, literary history, performance and textual criticism. This volume has been prepared in tribute to Jeffrey Henderson, William Goodwin Aurelio Professor of Greek Language and Literature Emeritus of Boston University and General Editor of the Loeb Classical Library. His vibrant research on classical literature, political ideology, civic culture, identity, obscenity and translation has shaped scholarly discourse for decades and has inspired each of the essays in this volume.
Breaking, not Broken
How have inherited and contemporary notions of perfection distorted our theology and the way in which we have expressed and lived out our fait? reaking, not Broken exposes how Western Christianity, post-Constantine, assimilated a Greco-Roman ideal of the flawless body as its anthropology and built its theology, architecture, and memory around it. Against this ableist inheritance, Timothy Goode offers a radical alternative: a return to a risen body anthropology grounded in the wounded yet glorified body of Christ. Drawing deeply on disability and liberation theology, critical heritage studies, and his own lived experience of disability, Timothy Goode reframes how the Church understands the body, healing, time and space. Here, disabled lives are not marginal but central: living archives of God’s story, prophetic voices that disrupt and renew, and bearers of hope for a more just ecclesiology. Written with theological depth and human honesty, this book bridges scholarship and practice, inviting the Church to rediscover its true heritage not in monuments of stone or ideals of perfection, but in the scars of resurrection and the grace of embodied diversity.
Settler Military Politics
Settler Military Politics provides a thorough investigation of the relationship between settler colonialism and militarisation drawing from the Australian experience. In this book, Caso develops the concept of settler military politics to identify the relationship between settler colonialism and militarisation. The book argues that militarisation is a rationality for governing the settler polity and consolidates the settler colonial project. It investigates settler military politics through an in-depth analysis of the under explored aesthetics of war commemoration in Australia and the role of the Australian War Memorial.
A Woman's Choice
A brave and candid account of entering menopause early - of symptoms that arrive without warning, doctors unwilling or unable to answer questions, and the grief of a future suddenly unrecognisable. With courage and grace, Natalie Campbell traces the emotional and physical realities, from isolation and anger to resilience and self-redefinition. In A Woman's Choice, she not only tells her own story, but also provides an arsenal of information and vocabulary with which to tackle assumptions and expectations around fertility. She offers recognition, solidarity, and the reassurance that even when the timeline breaks, a meaningful life is possible - changed, but still whole. This is a must-read for every woman.
Order and the Virtual
Bill Ross demonstrates the relation between Gilles Deleuze’s philosophy of difference and the conceptual foundations of contemporary physics through careful engagements with the theory of relativity, quantum physics and chaos and complexity theory. Ross shows that recent work in cosmology by figures such as Lee Smolin and David Bohm calls into question the assumption that the laws of physics are universal and unchanging, a view that Deleuze anticipates. The second law of thermodynamics tells us that order in the universe as a whole is destined to break down. Against this, Ross demonstrates that, given Deleuze’s conception of the event as an expression of non-locality, and his emphasis on dissymmetry over symmetry, at the cosmological scale the universe is not destined towards disorder: evolution outruns entropy.
Nebudeš si pamätať
Keď trestný právnik Robert Stern prijme žiadosť o stretnutie s novým klientom, nečaká, že bude merať meter štyridsaťtri. Desaťročný Simon je krehký, smrteľne chorý a neochvejne presvedčený, že v minulom živote bol sériovým vrahom. Tvrdí, že si pamätá mená, tváre aj miesta, kde jeho obete zomreli.
Stern sa rozhodne preveriť Simonove tvrdenia. Keď v podzemí zničeného priemyselného areálu nachádza lebku rozštiepenú sekerou presne podľa chlapcovho opisu, zvedavosť sa mení na hrôzu. Podobných miest však má byť viac. A nie všetky vraždy sa odohrali v dávnej minulosti.
Zatiaľ čo sa Stern prepadá do bludiska, kde sa hranica medzi realitou, manipuláciou a posadnutosťou stiera, jasné je len jedno: čím viac sa blíži k pravde, tým väčšie je nebezpečenstvo. A smrť prestáva byť iba súčasťou spomienok.
Nebudeš si pamätať je príbeh, ktorý prevracia typický Fitzekov psychotriler naruby: kto je tu obeť a kto vrah? A je minulosť naozaj len minulosťou?

Za hranice snov
Poručík Grayson Masters sa sústredí na ukončenie výcviku na vrtuľníkoch Apache – no rozptyľuje ho nová spolubývajúca Samantha Fitzgeraldová. Jej drzosť a nespútanosť ho privádzajú do zúfalstva. Nedokáže však poprieť, že to medzi nimi iskrí.
Sam by sa nemala vŕtať v Graysonových tajomstvách, keď ich sama má toľko. To jej však nebráni pokúšať sa zbúrať jeho obranné múry. S každou prekonanou prekážkou však odhaľuje aj niečo zo seba – a na pravdu nie je pripravená: Graysonovo srdce totiž dávno patrí inej.
