Tank
'Punchy. Trenchant. Heavyweight. Mark Urban’s Tank blows the doors off, just as you’d expect from such an accomplished author. Take cover!’ Damien Lewis, author of SAS Great EscapesAn authoritative history of the tank and the remarkable individuals who designed them and fought in them, from a former officer and best-selling historianTanks are the ultimate embodiment of industrial age warfare. In the popular imagination, they represent both a terrifying beast of destruction and a potent symbol of liberation. The technology behind these war machines has evolved relentlessly, and yet the coming of the information age has led many to predict that drones, missiles, and Artificial Intelligence have made the tank obsolete. Time and again, however, tanks have continued to shape – and be shaped by -- battles around the world, from their introduction in 1916, through the Second World War and tank-on-tank fights in 1990s Iraq, to the current conflict in Ukraine. In TANK, best-selling historian and former officer in the Royal Tank Regiment Mark Urban draws on wide-ranging accounts from soldiers, designers, and politicians, from Winston Churchill to Volodymyr Zelensky, to tell the remarkable story of one of the most important developments in military history. Through the ten most important vehicles ever made, Urban chronicles the incredible advances in tank technology – starting with the Mark IV, the first British tank to be used in large numbers in WW1, and following the story through the T-34 and Tiger to the M1 Abrams, a product of huge American Cold War investment that is still used to this day. Officially supported by The Tank Museum and using never-before-seen archival sources, interviews and declassified documents, this is a fascinating history of the vehicle that changed conflict forever. ‘An illuminating and exciting drive through the mud and blood of twentieth-century warfare' Dr Robert Lyman, author of Operation Suicide

Zdravotnické právo
Zdravotnické právo ovlivňuje každodenní rozhodování zdravotnických pracovníků více, než si mnozí uvědomují. Každý informovaný souhlas, každý zápis do zdravotnické dokumentace i každé odborné rozhodnutí má svůj právní rozměr. Právě v těchto situacích může neznalost právních pravidel znamenat nejen profesní problém, ale i vážné právní důsledky.

Čtenář získá přehled o tom, jaká práva má pacient, jaké povinnosti mají poskytovatelé zdravotních služeb a jaké právní dopady mohou mít rozhodnutí učiněná v klinické praxi. Kniha vysvětluje základní právní principy, upozorňuje na nejčastější rizikové situace a nabízí orientaci v právních otázkách, které zdravotníci řeší při své práci.
Publikace se věnuje soukromoprávním vztahům mezi pacientem a poskytovatelem zdravotních služeb, odpovědnosti za újmu, informovanému souhlasu, zdravotnické dokumentaci i trestněprávním aspektům zdravotnické praxe. Samostatná pozornost je věnována také znalecké činnosti ve zdravotnictví a specifickým situacím, které vznikají na rozhraní medicíny a práva.
Kniha je určena především studentům zdravotnických oborů, lékařům, nelékařským zdravotnickým pracovníkům a dalším profesionálům působícím ve zdravotnictví. Využití však najde i u studentů práva, právníků specializujících se na zdravotnické právo nebo pracovníků veřejné správy.

Daughter of the Otherworld
From the author of the Gael Song trilogy, an epic new historical fantasy set in the tumultuous, magical world of medieval Ireland during the time of the Norman invasion. Over a hundred years after she went missing, Isolde, born to the family of a famous Irish king and a powerful immortal, inexplicably reappears. Her mother's kin, the Descendants, are one of the two magical races of Ireland. But no Descendant can understand the reasons for Isolde's disappearance, and worse yet, she is giftless – born with no magical ability, a dangerous thing when the magic-rich Fomorians, ancient enemies of the Descendants, are growing in strength. The Fomorians no longer control any Irish kingdoms, but they still desire control over the mortal world. They seek to spread their dangerous webs wider by manipulating England’s Norman lords to invade Ireland. Not yet eighteen, Isolde's world is about to change for ever. But when death and destruction seem inevitable, her true worth will show itself, for Isolde is far more than she seems.
