No-Nonsense Skincare
A guide to smart skincare made simple—for every body and at every age. Skincare isn't one-size-fits-all—but you wouldn't know that from the overwhelming tide of product claims, influencer advice, and social media trends. In No-Nonsense Skincare, board-certified dermatologist Erum Ilyas, MD, cuts through the noise with trusted guidance for every part of the body and every stage of life. Whether you're navigating teenage breakouts, pregnancy skin changes, or dryness in your 60s, this book offers practical, evidence-based strategies to care for your skin with clarity and confidence. This essential guidebook explains how to: • Build a skincare routine that works for you by learning how to choose and use products based on your skin's changing needs, not marketing labels. • Demystify skincare myths and understand the truth behind buzzwords like "clean beauty," "skin type," and "anti-aging."• Recognize misleading marketing, vague claims, unrealistic expectations, and overhyped ingredients before they influence your decisions. • Understand what products can and can't do so that you can identify when you're buying real treatment—and when you're paying for ineffective products. • Save time and money by creating a streamlined routine that's effective without being excessive. Readers will learn how to decode marketing buzzwords, make sense of ingredients, and avoid common traps and dangerous trends. Through easy-to-follow routines, product insights, and scientific context, the book empowers readers to create skincare plans that are realistic, affordable, and customized to their own needs. From head to toe, and from infancy to older age, this guide offers a dermatologist's honest insight on how to care for your skin without getting lost in the hype.

Acheron
Píše se rok 2118. V srdci svobodné Evropy, přetvořené v ekologickou a feministickou pevnost, se odehrává příběh ženy, která ztrácí a znovu nachází svět — i sebe samu. V krajině, kde lidé místo států pěstují společenství a místo monumentů sázejí stromy, se prolíná osobní ztráta s dějinami celého kontinentu.
Acheron je vizionářský román o koncích a nových začátcích, o křehkosti světa i o síle společenství. Autorka s poetikou Ursuly Le Guinové a pronikavostí Aldouse Huxleyho skládá obraz Evropy po zhroucení starého řádu — světa, který se zrodil z bolesti, ale stále touží po něze, svobodě a smyslu.

Walk With Me
Walk With Me: Lessons in Transcendent Leadership is a powerful exploration of leadership beyond position and performance—offering a visionary model rooted in spiritual intelligence, ethical courage, and communal elevation. Authored by Dr. Hakim J. Lucas, a transcendent higher education leader, this book reimagines what it means to lead in institutions facing complexity, constraint, and change—especially in the context of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), faith-based organizations, and social-impact institutions. Transcendent leadership, as defined in this work, is not hierarchical but relational. It is not driven by ego or authority, but by authenticity, resilience, and divine purpose. Through deeply reflective storytelling, institutional case studies, and African fables, Dr. Lucas offers a leadership framework that values transparency over perfection, process over position, and people over politics. More than a personal memoir or leadership manual, Walk With Me is an invitation: for presidents, provosts, pastors, and changemakers to lead with soul, serve with integrity, and walk with those they lead—not ahead or above, but beside. In a time when higher education, especially at mission-driven institutions, requires bold vision and prophetic imagination, this book is a guide for becoming the kind of leader who not only transforms—but transcends. This is not just leadership. This is a walk of purpose.
Cathedrals
Lia fled her home after a brutal crime decades ago, but family, and the truth, will never let you go.Thirty years ago, in an empty plot of a quiet neighbourhood, a teenage girl's body was found quartered and burned. The investigation ended with no arrests and her family – middle class, educated, Catholic – quietly disintegrated. Three decades later, the hidden truth comes to light thanks to the father's enduring love for the victim. That truth will reveal the raw realities lurking behind appearances, the cruelty of those who prioritize obedience and religious fanaticism, the complicity of the fearful and the indifferent, and the loneliness and desperation of those who seek to follow their own path, ignoring the dictates of their elders.Just as she did with Elena Knows and A Little Luck , Claudia Pineiro delves into family ties, social prejudice, and the ideologies and institutions that affect our inner worlds to deliver a brave, moving novel that strikes at the heart of these private dramas.

Lila James a legjobb barátom húga.
Szigorúan tiltott terület.
De minden férfinak megvan az Achilles-sarka.
Lila a legjobb barátom kishúga, és mindig is így gondoltam rá. Egy gyerek, akire vigyázni kell.
Öt évvel fiatalabb nálam, még akkor is kislány volt, amikor elköltözött a városból, hogy egyetemre járjon. Most itthon tölti a nyári vakációt – és egyértelműen nem kislány már, gyönyörű, okos nővé érett. A szeme sötét, hosszú haja hullámokban omlik a vállára. Formás lábát mintha arra tervezték volna, hogy a derekam köré fonja.
Én mindig is az a fickó voltam, aki szeret szórakozni, aki könnyedén veszi a dolgokat.
Amikor a bátyja szívességet kér tőlem, hogy adjak Lilának munkát az éttermemben, egy pillanatnyi habozás nélkül igent mondok, hiszen nincs, amit meg ne tennék a barátom kishúgáért.
Egészen addig, amíg Lila nem kér tőlem még valamit. Azt akarja, hogy én legyek számára az első. Nekem akarja adni a szüzességét. Azt kéri, én járjak ott először, ahol férfi még nem járt…
A nagyesküt is leteszi, hogy nem fog belém zúgni – annál több esze van.
Csakhogy én nem Lila szíve miatt aggódom...

Masquerade at the Crossroads of Good and Evil
A challenge to conventional psychiatry with a powerful, case-based vision of mental health rooted in spirituality, ritual, and authentic human connectionBased on field notes from his own experience as a mental health support worker, David Stokes reveals his unique approach to working with those with mental illness that involves seeking opportunities that connect the spirit to the wider world, whether that be through magic, ritual, or religious spirituality. Written in a personal and poignant prose, Stokes’ writing highlights the grim realities of everyday life, especially for those suffering with mental illness and trapped within the confines of mental health services. Stokes argues that the mental health of those suffering comes not from a chemical imbalance in their brain, as pertained by traditional psychiatry, but rather from a lack of spiritual connection to the wider world. Stokes’ approach, and the treatments outlined in A Masquerade at the Crossroads of Good and Evil, focuses on encouraging patients to seek opportunities for genuine engagement with a wider sense of reality, whether that be through esotericism, magical ritual, spirituality, and more. While a gestalt approach is central to the arguments presented in A Masquerade at the Crossroads of Good and Evil, the book also draws from a wide range of other disciplines, such as Jungian theory, esoteric Christianity, consciousness studies, and pagan/folk tradition, ultimately proving that the emphasis of the holistic, spiritual approach in psychotherapy, should be one that finds the authentic voice of the individual suffering. Rich with evidence and experience from real-life case studies, A Masquerade at the Crossroads of Good and Evil will be an intriguing, stimulating, and thought-provoking read for anyone involved in or interested in working with mental illness.
The Secret of Sunrises
From award-winning author Ellie Block comes a heartwarming novel to remind us that forgiveness, like the sea, has tides—and it’s never too late to sail toward the sunset. When Catherine Moran’s long-lost brother bequeaths her a boat in Key West, she’s not sure what hurts more: his death or the decades they’ve been estranged. The fifty-seven-year-old thinks this could be the answer to her financial strain since putting their mother in a memory care facility, but when she arrives on the island, her bonanza is a bust. The boat is a dilapidated trawler supposedly once owned by Ernest Hemingway, and a handsome buddy of her brother is living onboard but refuses to jump ship. Because both Catherine and her brother were named after Hemingway characters, she can’t shake the author’s shadow. Instead of unwinding, Catherine ends up crisscrossing the island trying to drum up interest in the barely operable vessel. Key West is south of her normal. However, if she wants to unravel the mystery of the boat and her brother, that’s exactly the direction Catherine needs to go.
The Art of Legend
Once in a faraway kingdom there was a prince prophesied to be the Chosen One, who would defeat a great villain, the Eternal Khan, and save the kingdom. But then the Eternal Khan died...and the prophecy was broken. For Jian, the fated prince, this could have been a moment to succumb to despair.
But instead, he chose to create his own destiny. He studied under his curmudgeonly but beloved mentor to become a great warrior. And he banded together with some unlikely allies whose courage and determination match his own-such as Sali, a gruff warrior who is also forging a path apart from the one her culture created for her.
Because some heroes aren't simply born legends-they choose to become legendary. And great heroes do not stand alone, but are stronger together.
