Deer World
A year in the life of North America's most beautiful and popular game species. This exciting book by renowned wildlife photographer Dave Taylor features 375 images of North American deer species in their natural habitat. Included are the two deer species indigenous to North America -- the whitetail and the mule deer -- as well as blacktail deer, elk, caribou and moose. These majestic animals are photographed at all stages of development, in all seasons, in locations across the continent. Deer World explores a year in the life of deer, providing naturalists and wildlife enthusiasts a rare inside look at how seasonal events affect each species. The remarkable photographs are arranged by day and month, juxtaposed with informative captions that offer notes on the animal, its behaviour, the role it plays within its local ecosystem, and where and when it can best be viewed. As a bonus, Taylor includes photographs of other animals found in the deer's world, such as wolves and bears. Updated in 2025 with new images and captions, this timeless book continues to thrill millions of deer enthusiasts.
New Kids in the World Cup
In 1990 a fearless group of players changed the sport of soccer in the United States forever. Young, bronzed, and mulleted, they were America's finest athletes in a sport their country loved to hate. Even sportswriters rooted against them. Yet this team defied massive odds and qualified for the World Cup, making possible America's current obsession with the world's most popular game. Back then players earned twenty dollars a day, the crowds at home games cheered for their opponents, and the fields were often mismarked. In Latin America the U.S. team bus had a machine gun turret mounted on the back, locals sabotaged their hotels, and in the stadiums spectators rained coins, batteries, and plastic bags of urine down on the U.S. players. The world considered the U.S. team impostors. Yet on the biggest stage of all, in the 1990 World Cup, this undaunted American squad and their wise coach earned the adoration of Italy's star players and their fans in a gladiator-like match in Rome's deafening Stadio Olimpico. From windswept soccer fields in the U.S. heartland to the CIA-infested cauldron of Central America and the Caribbean, behind the recently toppled Iron Curtain and into the great European soccer cathedrals, New Kids in the World Cup is the origin story of modern American men's soccer. It's the true adventure of America's most important soccer team—and the one that made America finally fall in love with soccer.

Léto na Skotské vysočině
Ještě nedávno měla třicetiletá Paige pocit, že jde všechno přesně podle plánu – pohledný manžel, skvělá práce, roztomilá dcerka. Ale pak se to během jediného roku pokazilo. Po manželově tragické nehodě se Paige s dcerou vrací do rodného domu v malebné skotské vesničce, kde se chce pokusit dát si život opět do pořádku.
Rozhodně neplánuje, že zde potká Johnnyho, veselého a vtipného bývalého šéfkuchaře s jiskrou v oku a s dolíčky ve tvářích. Společně ochutnávají nejrůznější dobroty, hrají si s Johnnyho štěnětem, vyrážejí na výlety – a Paige zase nachází chuť do života. Dokáže se ale odpoutat od minulosti a znovu otevřít své srdce lásce?
Symbolika hebrejských znaků
Symbolika hebrejských znaků je jeden nekonečný chasidský příběh, který prostě stojí za to poznat. Ne nadarmo se stala také pevnou součástí a zároveň kořením talmudu, midrašů i kabalistické literatury – jak středověké, tak té současné. A poznat symboly jednotlivých znaků a jejich vzájemné souvztažnosti může dnešnímu čtenáři zároveň přiblížit biblický text ve zcela nových (nebo lépe řečeno staronových) souvislostech. Navíc si ověří, že tu nejde o nějaké biblické kódy, čarování s čísly nebo znásilňování textu, ale o vypracovaný systém znaků vycházející z nejstarších tradic lidstva, přírody a vesmíru. Není vyloučeno, že některým se předkládaná kniha stane dokonce vstupenkou k hlubšímu poznání jazyka bible.

The Invention of Good and Evil
For almost five million years, humans have been locked in a relationship with morality, inventing and reinventing the concepts of 'Good' and 'Evil', and weaving them into our cities, laws and customs.
Morality is a concept that can feel joyless and claustrophobic, associated with restraint and coercion, restriction and sacrifice, inquisition, confession and a guilty conscience. For many, it is a device used to shame us into compliance. This impression is not necessarily incorrect, but it is most certainly incomplete.
Hanno Sauer traces humanity's fundamental moral transformations from our earliest ancestors through to the present day, when it can often seem that we have never disagreed more over what it means to be good, and what it means to be right. But we can use our past as a basis for a new understanding of our future. Our current political disagreements may feel like the end of the world, but where will the evolution of morality take us next?
