Dear children, Josef Čapek, the writer, wrote for you the Tale About a doggie and a pussycat. For this Tale he also drew lots of very nice pictures. When he was writing and drawing all of this, little Alice was sitting on his lap. She was his daughter and he loved her very much, and little Alice loved her father. Because they were fond of each other like that, Mr. Čapek wrote and drew his story just like his Alice wished. Maybe she even suggested a bit what he should write and draw. However, we are not sure about that, we are just quessing. We would like to tell you that we are in good health and that we just began to be published as a serial for children. Now, as far as we know, you are going to be told in different books how we were washing the floor, how we made a cake, how we were writing a letter, how doggie tore his pants, then about a doll which was crying faintly and also about a proud night shirt. We are looking forward to tell you more. We hope that you feel the same. So bye and regards, Yours PUSSYCAT and DOGGIE

Dear children, as you well know we both like you a lot and that is why we are writing you a letter today; it’s not long but it is important. You see, both of us, the doggie and the pussycat, we think that you like us a lot, and so we are writing to you because we want you to like all the doggies and pussycats in the whole wide world. That is why this book about us is called How They Wrote a Letter, because it is important that you not only find out what is written in this letter, but also what has been happening about that letter and in fact how all of this have happened. Writing such a letter is a hard work even for children, let alone for doggies and pussycats. However, you will find out all about it in a greater detail in this book, so we better not tell you too much about it beforehand. We will only remind you that any pain hurts doggies and pussycats just as much as it hurts you, the children. So remember it well and if you forget it sometimes, quickly go and read this book again and everything will be all right. Yours DOGGIE AND PUSSYCAT

Dear children and others, we are informing you that everything is in the best disorder, and so we are again meeting you in this next book from the Tales About a Doggie and a Pussycat, which is all about the two of us, written by the author Mr. Josef Čapek. We want to add to this that we are both very happy that he had portrayed us so nicely in his pictures. This new book about us is named How They Were Making a Cake, because once we really made such a big cake since as it happened we both had a name day and a birthday at the same time. However, it was also for the last time, because we found out that we should not overdo even a good thing; but we can't reveal more because then you would easily guess how all of this ended. So have a good read and perhaps don't show our recipe for a real proper cake to your mum. Ask her instead to make you a cake for your name day or birthday from her own head, or from a cookery book. Good appetite! So cheerio and regards Yours PUSSYCAT and DOGGIE

Dear children, imagine if you can - how could such a thing happen to pussycats and doggies!? Well, it does happen. Sometimes. When there is the right time and if you can imagine that pussycats and doggies are dressed in their skins just like people are in clothes. A hole in the pants like that is disgraceful for everybody, who wears pants. Th at means doggies as well. People or even animals have to be very careful with their things, because the careless ones could have other things happen to them as well. They could perhaps break some beautiful toy, or even worse, they could loose it. Now you can't pretend to race with a broken toy car, and you can't pretend to cook with a lost bucket; and we haven't even talked about toys that have not been put away. Th ey are the saddest of all toys in the world ever, when their mummies and daddies, those girls and boys, don't put them away properly. You can perhaps loose a toy or some money by accident, but leaving a toy or even a doll lying somewhere, that is not a done thing among well-behaved children. Not that. Now, since we all know that sometimes some child, a girl or a boy does that, that is why we want to tell you about one small, lost and poor doll, so that you realize that such things must never be done. So bye-bye and regards Yours PUSSYCAT and DOGGIE

Milé děti, jistě dobře víte, jak Vás máme oba rádi, a proto Vám dneska píšeme ani ne tak dlouhatánské jako důležité psaní. My si totiž myslíme, že nás, pejska a kočičku, od pana spisovatele Josefa Čapka, taky máte tuze rády, a tak Vám tedy píšeme, abyste měly rády vůbec všechny pejsky a kočičky na světě. Proto se tahle knížka o nás jmenuje Jak psali psaní, protože je třeba, abyste se také dověděly, nejen co v tom psaní je napsáno, ale také co se kolem toho psaní sběhlo a jak to vlastně všechno doopravdy bylo. Napsat takové psaní je totiž veliká práce i pro děti, natož pro pejsky a kočičky. Ale o tom se dopodrobna dovíte v téhle knížce, takže Vám to raději nebudeme předem povídat. Jenom Vám prozradíme, že nás, pejsky a kočičky, každé trápení bolí jako Vás děti. Tak si to dobře pamatujte a kdybyste někdy náhodou na to zapomněly, tak si honem zase znovu tuhle knížku přečtěte a bude všechno v pořádku. Tak nazdar a v úctě Kočička a Pejsek

Alegorická divadelní hra Ze života hmyzu patří již téměř sto let ke klasikám českých divadelních jevišť. Toto nadčasové komediální drama bratří Čapků ve třech dějstvích popisuje lidské vlastnosti (převážně záporné), demonstrované na postavách z hmyzí třídy. Všechny obrazy hry spojuje jistý Tulák, lidský protagonista, který se na začátku rozčiluje, že lidi uráží oslovení „člověče“, přestože ničím jiným nejsou. Následně se rozhodne, že se k nim tedy bude stavět jako ke hmyzu, což nastavuje optiku celého zbytku představení. Scénář z roku 1922 se dodnes pravidelně objevuje na seznamech povinné i maturitní četby a neměl by tedy chybět v knihovně žádného českého čtenáře.

Měl jsem psa a kočku jsou půvabná a úsměvná vyprávění o psech, kočkách a lidech, která původně vznikala ve formě fejetonů a novinových sloupků. Karel Čapek se v knize mimo jiné zamýšlí nad přátelstvím člověka a psa. Úsměvnou formou sobě vlastní poukazuje na vliv civilizace, která se odráží ve šlechtění nových psích ras na úkor ztráty ras jiných. Nezapomíná se zmínit o oddanosti psích duší a jejich lásce k lidskému rodu. Ačkoliv kniha nese v názvu i kočičí pokolení, je především oslavou psích vlastností. Nicméně i kočičí příběhy prozrazují autorův kladný vztah k těmto odvěkým průvodcům nás lidí. Ačkoliv je kniha plná veselých příhod a mírně pobaveného pohledu autora na soužití se psy a kočkami, najdeme v textu i několik rozporuplných a pro dnešní milovníky zvířat nepřijatelných pasáží. Kupírováním uší a ocásků počínaje a topením štěňat konče. Z dnešního pohledu může takové počínání nebo jeho tiché schvalování vrhat na jinak kladný vztah autora ke zvířatům temný stín, ale musíme si uvědomit, že věci, které dnes považujeme za kruté a nepřijatelné byly v době, kdy text této knihy vznikl, běžné.

Milé děti, tak si představte, že se taková věc může vůbec pejskům a kočičkám stát! Vidíte a stane se. Někdy. Když je k tomu správná příležitost a když si k tomu docela snadno představíme, že pejskové a kočičky jsou vlastně ve své kůži oblečeni stejně jako lidé. A taková díra do kalhot je velikánská ostuda pro každého, kdo nosí kalhoty. Tedy i pro pejsky. Člověk nebo i zvířátko musí být na svoje věci tuze opatrní, protože těm neopatrným se mohou stát i jiné věci. Mohou si třeba rozbít nějakou hračku, a co je ještě horší, mohou ji třeba i ztratit. A s rozbitým autíčkem si nemůžete hrát na závody a se ztraceným kyblíčkem se nedá hrát na vaření. A to jsme ještě nepovídali o pohozených hračkách. To jsou ty nejubožejší hračky na světě vůbec, když je ti jejich tatínkové a maminky, ti kluci a holčičky sami pohodili. Ztratit se náhodou může třeba i hračka, nebo i nějaké peníze, ale pohodit a nechat někde ležet nějakou hračku nebo dokonce i nějakou panenku, to se mezi slušnými dětmi nedělá. To ne. A protože oba dobře víme, že se toho někdy některé dítě, nějaká holčička nebo kluk dopustí, proto Vám chceme povědět o takové jedné malé, ztracené a ubohé panence, abyste věděli, že se takové věci nemají nikdy dělat. Tak nazdar a v úctě Kočička a Pejsek

Rybí šupiny jsou první Reynkovou sbírkou, která obsahuje pouze básně v próze; po následující sbírce (Had na sněhu, 1924). Reynek tento tvar opouští a již ve třicátých letech se vrací k strohému veršovému útvaru, k "prostinké podobě verše" (M. Červenka). - V době vzniku představovala sbírka v různorodosti české poezie spolu s některými díly J. Durycha či J. Chaloupky expresionistickou tvář literatury; a reprezentuje samozřejmě i specificky viděný a vyhrocený křesťanský zážitek, tedy náboj, jímž motivované umělecké pokusy znamenají pro literaturu jeden z momentů povýtce kruciálních. Kniha vychází dle původního vydání s ilustracemi Josefa Čapka.

Kniha - autor Sanne Blauw, 176 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Even if you don't consider yourself a numbers person, you are a numbers person. The time has come to put numbers in their place. Not high up on a pedestal, or out on the curb, but right where they belong: beside words. It is not an overstatement to say that numbers dictate the way we live our lives. They tell us how we're doing at school, how much we weigh, who might win an election and whether the economy is booming. But numbers aren't as objective as they may seem; behind every number is a story. Yet politicians, businesses and the media often forget this - or use it for their own gain. Sanne Blauw travels the world to unpick our relationship with numbers and demystify our misguided allegiance, from Florence Nightingale using statistics to petition for better conditions during the Crimean War to the manipulation of numbers by the American tobacco industry and the ambiguous figures...

Žili, byli v jednom malém domečku pejsek s kočičkou. Vedli společnou domácnost a snažili se dělat všechno skoro stejným způsobem, jako velcí lidé. Jenže, jak je asi všem jasné, lidé to přeci jen nejsou a tak se jim některé věci povedly trochu jinak, než by měly. Ono je například krásné dát do narozeninového dortu všechno, co máme rádi, ale jak pak bude taková zvláštní směs chutnat?Povídání o pejskovi a kočičce patří do zlatého fondu české literatury pro děti.

Kniha - česky Speciálním tématem knihy je Čapkova literární tvorba umělecká i publicistická, a nejen sama o sobě, nýbrž také ve svých vazbách na autorovo primární dílo výtvarné, na paralelní tvorbu slavného bratra Karla a samozřejmě na běh autorova života. A jak prozrazuje její jmenný rejstřík, nevnímá tato kniha svůj objekt jen v úzkých domácích hranicích, nýbrž vidí jej ve vztazích k paralelnímu umění evropskému, respektive kultuře světové. Kniha dochází podrobnými rozbory k závěru, že jakkoli se Josef Čapek přednostně cítil povolán k malování, bylo mu psaní činností celoživotně nezbytnou a tvůrčí. Toto psaní sice doplácelo na převahu autorovy výtvarné práce svým menším rozsahem, přesto však bylo vývojově hybné, žánrově mnohostranné a nezaměnitelně osobité. Dovedlo se také rozepnout od pólu experimentu až k pólu populárnosti. Konkrétně: prezentovalo se kubistickou povídkou nebo bezdějovou úvahovou prózou, ale stejně tak napínavou epickou novelou nebo...

Deep and accelerating inequality; unprecedented political polarization; vitriolic public discourse; a fraying social fabric; public and private narcissism—Americans today seem to agree on only one thing: This is the worst of times. But we’ve been here before. During the Gilded Age of the late 1800s, America was highly individualistic, starkly unequal, fiercely polarized, and deeply fragmented, just as it is today. However as the twentieth century opened,...

Kniha - autor Antonín Zita, 202 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Kniha se zabývá srovnáním recepce autorů Beat Generation v USA a v Česku, a to ve dvou časových obdobích - v 50. a 60. letech 20. století a poté od 90. let až do současnosti. Zatímco samotné publikace Beat Generation autorů zůstaly nezměněné, kontexty těchto publikací byly zásadně odlišné: v USA byla díla autorů Beat Generation často redukována senzacechtivými kritiky na nevyzrálé vychvalování drog, sexu i násilí, v Československu naopak tito autoři získali přízeň čtenářů díky neobvyklosti svého literárního jazyka, kterou jejich próza a poezie představovaly na literárním trhu značně pokřiveném tezemi socialistického realismu. Tato studie tedy dokládá, jak mohou odlišné kontexty ovlivnit přístup čtenářů k literárnímu textu a jejich autorům, což ve výsledku pomáhá přeměnit daný text na odlišné umělecké dílo.

Have you ever wondered why there are so few success stories of women in business leadership? Or maybe you've wondered what life is really like on the other side of The Glass Ceiling? The world of work is supposedly changing, embracing diversity; yet are the opportunities we're giving to women really equal to those of men? Drawing on almost 20 years of research from around the world, The Glass Cliff phenomenon - whereby women are often only hired in leadership roles when a business is already underperforming, meaning their chances of success are limited before they ever even start in the role - is well established, but little known. Until now. This is the story of The Glass Cliff: a story of a structural inequality disguising itself as the personal failures of women. When Sophie Williams gave her viral TED talk on the subject, she was subsequently flooded with accounts of confident, accomplished women who had taken what seemed like a dream leadership role only to quickly find themselves in a waking nightmare.Without the language to describe their experiences they had been left blaming themselves. But learning about The Glass Cliff enabled them to reframe and reexamine what they'd gone through. Once we understand The Glass Cliff; once we can stand together and face it head-first; we can start to unravel so many other false narratives about women's leadership experiences that just don't make sense without it. By understanding the phenomenon, and by telling one another about it, we can affect the conversation, empower one another to overcome societal bias and, ultimately, change the world of work for women forever.

We have never had so much information at our fingertips and yet most of us don't know how the world really works. This book explains seven of the most fundamental realities governing our survival and prosperity. From energy and food production, through our material world and its globalization, to risks, our environment and its future, How the World Really Works offers a much-needed reality check - because before we can tackle problems effectively, we must understand the facts.In this ambitious and thought-provoking book we see, for example, that globalization isn't inevitable and that our societies have been steadily increasing their dependence on fossil fuels, making their complete and rapid elimination unlikely. Drawing on the latest science and tackling sources of misinformation head on - from Yuval Noah Harari to Noam Chomsky - ultimately Smil answers the most profound question of our age: are we irrevocably doomed or is a brighter utopia ahead?

A runaway best seller in Sweden that has sold more than a million copies worldwide, Surrounded by Idiots shares a groundbreaking new method of understanding the people around you that will change how you interact with everyone from your coworkers to your spouse. Author Thomas Erikson explains that there are four key behavior types that define how we interact with and perceive the people around us. Understanding someone's pattern of behavior is the key to successful communication. Erikson breaks down the four kinds of behavior types - Reds who are dominant and commanding, Yellows who are social and optimistic, Greens who are laid back and friendly, and Blues who are analytical and precise - and explains how to identify and interact with each type of person. Instead of being bogged down with overly technical categorizations, the simple four color system allows you to speedily identify a friend or coworker and adjust how you speak and share with them. Surrounded by Idiots is full of practical information for interacting with people based on their color, including the strengths and weaknesses of all the profiles, how to give positive and negative feedback to each, and the best way to word an email when writing to someone with a different profile.

As a clinical psychologist, Dr Nicole LePera found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients - and for herself - she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual health that equips people with the tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she'd learned with others - and The Holistic Psychologist was born. Now Dr LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In How to Do the Work, she offers both a manifesto for self-healing and an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from both scientific research and healing modalities, Dr LePera helps us recognise how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, keeping us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviours can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell. In How to Do the Work, Dr LePera offers readers the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviours to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short of a paradigm shift, this is a celebration of empowerment that will forever change the way we approach mental wellness and self-care.

Borders draw one map of the world; money draws another. A journalist’s riveting account exposes a parallel universe exempt from the laws of the land, and how the wealthy and powerful benefit from it.The map of the globe shows the world we think we know: sovereign nations that grant and restrict their citizens’ rights. Beneath, above, and tucked inside its neatly delineated borders, however, a parallel universe has been engineered into existence, consisting of thousands of extraterritorial zones that operate largely autonomously, increasingly for the benefit of the wealthy and powerful.Atossa Abrahamian traces the rise of the hidden globe to thirteenth-century Switzerland, where poor cantons marketed the commodity they had—bodies, in the form of mercenary fighters. Following its evolution around the world, she reveals how prize-winning economists, eccentric theorists, visionary statesmen, and consultants masterminded its export in the form of free trade zones, flags of convenience, offshore detention centers where immigrants languish in limbo, and charter cities controlled by by foreign governments and multinational foreign corporations—and even into outer space, where tiny Luxembourg aspires to mining rights on asteroids.

A powerful and intensely moving true-life account from two sisters who were among the very few children to survive Auschwitz. For readers of Lily's Promise and The Tattooist of Auschwitz. Always Remember Your Name is an unforgettable story of the power of sisterhood, and of how a mother's love triumphed over impossible odds. On 28 March 1944, Italian sisters Tati (six) and Andra (four) were roused from their sleep and taken to Auschwitz, to the infamous Kinder Block presided over by Josef Mengele, the Angel of Death. By the time Auschwitz was liberated, 230,000 children had been murdered, and the sisters were among only 70 child survivors.Throughout their ordeal in the camp and the liberation of Auschwitz, their long journey from Poland to Czechoslovakia and finally to Lingfield House in Britain, they hung on to their promise to their mother to 'always remember your name'. They never forgot they were Tati and Andra Bucci, and it was this connection to their heritage that brought them miraculously back to their parents, years later and many countries away. The sisters overcame their trauma to live long lives, bearing witness as survivors of the Holocaust.'Always Remember Your Name is heart-breaking and yet utterly uplifting, with the fierce bond of two sisters at its heart, who survived the Holocaust to bear witness, so that none of us will ever forget.' Heather Morris, international bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz'A valuable record of what was suffered by surely some of our youngest survivors. Insightful and illuminating, the road to recovery - with its silences, loyalties, and self examinations - is never what we might suppose.' Esther Freud, bestselling author of Hideous Kinky

Told through case studies and medical history, this is an enlightening, in-depth book on the fascinating science behind pain and the complexities of its treatment, by one of the leading doctors in this area. Pain is a universal human experience, but we understand very little about the mechanics behind it. We hurt ourselves, we feel pain, we seek help from a professional or learn to avoid certain behaviours that cause pain. But the story of what goes on in our body is far from simple. Even medical practitioners themselves often fail to grasp the complexities between our minds and bodies and how they interact when dealing with pain stimulus.Common conception still equates pain with tissue damage but that is only a very small part of the story - the organ which produces pain is the brain. Case studies show that a woman who has undergone a caesarean reports dramatically less pain than a patient who has had a comparably invasive operation. The soldier who drags themselves to safety after being shot deals with pain in a remarkably different way from someone suffering a similar injury on a street. The truth is that pain is a complex mix of nerve endings, psychological state, social preconceptions and situational awareness.Using case studies and medical history, Dr Lalkhen guides us through all aspects of pain, from chronic to acute, and the current landscape of pain treatments - from medication (including opioids) to electrical nerve stimulation. Whether it's a mild ache or severe discomfort, we all encounter pain in our lives and this important and illuminating book enables us to understand and cope with an experience that for so many can become all-consuming.

Tato kniha se pokouší o kritickou interpretaci dějin Izraele. Nejde o interpretaci harmonizující, která by přijímala jako fakt obraz předkládaný texty, ani o výklad podporující biblické zprávy archeologickými a epigrafickými daty. Místo toho nabízí čtenáři celou škálu možností, jak rozumět biblickým vyprávěním na historické a teologické úrovni. Opírá se o nejnovější objevy z izraelských vykopávek a předkládá nové hypotézy a rekonstrukce založené na interdisciplinárním dialogu mezi biblistikou, archeologií a historií.
