But the more time she spends with the snarky yet utterly charming demon, the more she realizes she likes this new, improved Astaroth... and maybe she doesn''t want him to recover his memories after all.Praise for Sarah Hawley ''Whimsically sexy, charmingly romantic, and magically hilarious'' Ali Hazelwood''Reading this book is like standing in the bright heart of magic.

An Astronaut´s Guide to Life on Earth - Chris Hadfield
Colonel Chris Hadfield has spent decades training as an astronaut and has logged nearly 4000 hours in space. During this time he has broken into a Space Station with a Swiss army knife, disposed of a live snake while piloting a plane, and been temporarily blinded while clinging to the exterior of an orbiting spacecraft. The secret to Col. Hadfield's success-and survival-is an unconventional philosophy he learned at NASA: prepare for the worst- and enjoy every moment of it.In An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth, Col. Hadfield takes readers deep into his years of training and space exploration to show how to make the impossible possible. Through eye-opening, entertaining stories filled with the adrenaline of launch, the mesmerizing wonder of spacewalks, and the measured, calm responses mandated by crises, he explains how conventional wisdom can get in the way of achievement-and happiness. His own extraordinary education in space has taught him some counterintuitive lessons: don't visualize success, do care what others think, and always sweat the small stuff.You might never be able to build a robot, pilot a spacecraft, make a music video or perform basic surgery in zero gravity like Col. Hadfield. But his vivid and refreshing insights will teach you how to think like an astronaut, and will change, completely, the way you view life on Earth-especially your own.

Thank You for Being Late: 'An Optimist''s Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations' (0241301440)
Kniha - autor Thomas L. Friedman, 486 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná We all sense it - our lives are speeding up at a dizzying rate. Thank You for Being Late exposes the tectonic movements that are reshaping the world today and explains how to get the most out of them. Friedman's thesis is that the planet's three largest forces - Moore's law (technology), the market (globalization) and Mother Nature (climate change and biodiversity loss) - are all accelerating at once. Thank You for Being Late is a work of contemporary history that serves as a field manual for how to think about this era of accelerations and how we can anchor ourselves in the eye of this storm. It's also an argument for 'being late' - for pausing to appreciate this amazing historical epoch we're passing through and reflecting on its possibilities and dangers. Written with his trademark vitality, wit, and optimism, and with unequalled access to many of those at the forefront of the...

How the World Really Works : A Scientist´s Guide to Our Past, Present and Future - Václav Smil
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?

Jak svést dámu na scestí snadno a rychle - Sophie Irwin - e-kniha
eBook: Nesmělá sedmnáctiletá slečna Eliza Balfourová se pod nátlakem rodiny provdala za upjatého hraběte ze Somersetu, o dvacet let staršího než ona, přestože milovala jiného. Když o deset let později ovdověla, před bohatou dědičkou, která se dosud vždy chovala, jak od ní společenská smetánka očekávala, se poprvé otevřela možnost, aby o sobě rozhodovala sama.Ještě než jí skončí smutek, odjede se svou sestřenicí Margaret do Bathu, kde si užívá společenského života, věnuje se kreslení a malování, později se dokonce naučí jezdit s kočárem a spřátelí se s dalším novým návštěvníkem Bathu, básníkem, nechvalně známým lordem Melvillem.Eliza se opětovně sblíží se synovcem svého zesnulého manžela, nynějším lordem Somersetem, jemuž před deseti lety zlomilo srdce, když se provdala za jeho strýce. Somerset se ale dozví o Elizině údajném pohoršlivém chování a rozhodně se jí dědictví odebrat. Jen na něm dle závěti záleží, jestli Elize jmění zůstane. Zachová si ho pouze pod podmínkou, že nezpůsobí žádný skandál. Je tedy postavena před volbu žít znovu tak, jak jí diktují dobové společenské konvence, nebo bez velkého majetku, zato svobodně, podle vlastních představ.

Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man - Steve Harvey
The #1 New York Times smash bestseller Revised and expanded with new material. With over two million copies sold, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man has become a bestseller around the world. In conjunction with its second movie sequel to be released this summer, Steve Harvey has updated his classic with new advice and insights. Whether it's why women should enforce a "90-Day Probation Period" before they give their men sexual "benefits"-the way Ford motor company withholds medical and dental benefits until an employee has been on the job for 3 months-or explaining to women why men would rather "fix it" than talk about it, Steve Harvey's advice is always spot-on and laden with warmth and humor. But behind the laughter is his sincere desire to help women understand men. Now, Steve shares even more relationship wisdom. Does it feel like your man's friends are against you? What should you know about being a wife, before you say "I Do"? Steve provides the answers to these questions and more, and offers new insights including: * How to put spice into your relationship * 8 sure-fire ways to keep your cool when his "ex" shows up * A test for you and your partner, to see if you're actually ready for marriage...or need more time * A 90-day abstinence calendar, and tips for making it through this important trial period With liberal use of his own adventures in love and courtship, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man is an honest, compelling, and realistic examination of how men think about love and sex and what women need to know so that they can set realistic expectations of the men in their life.

Láska v temné ulici - Irwin Shaw
Paříž, New York, Švýcarsko, zapadlý kout amerického venkova - to všechno jsou místa, která Irwin Shaw, jeden z nejlepších amerických prozaiků 20. století, mistrovsky zachytil ve své povídkové sbírce Láska v temné ulici. Věrně zobrazené prostředí však nebylo jeho jedinou doménou, vynikal především jako výborný vypravěč. Jako málokterý spisovatel dovedl spojit zvučný, mužný a někdy lehce ironický projev svých povídek s nevšedně jemným pochopením i těch nejniternějších pohnutek lidského chování. Shawův svět je v podstatě tragický, přestože on sám zdaleka není pesimista. V jeho civilních příbězích nejednou zazáří lidská něha, nesobeckost, obětavost a upřímný cit. Shaw obdivuje člověka a přes všechny výhrady věří v jeho morální sílu. Povídky dosahují po formální stránce vysoké úrovně, vynikají jak vtipnými dialogy, tak skvělou kresbou charakterů a Irwin Shaw v nich dokazuje, že je právem považován za mistra tohoto žánru.

Irwin Shaw (1913–1984), americký spisovatel, scenárista a dramatik, se narodil jako syn ruských židovských emigrantů. Většinu svého mládí strávil v Brooklynu, kde také v roce 1934 získal titul bakaláře umění. Za druhé světové války vstoupil do armády, později se krátce živil jako učitel tvůrčího psaní. Na začátku padesátých let se přestěhoval do Evropy, kde žil následujících pětadvacet let ve Francii a ve Švýcarsku. Od roku 1976 žil střídavě na Long Islandu a ve Švýcarsku, kde také zemřel. Úspěchu na poli umění dosáhl už v roce 1936 díky expresionistickému dramatu Bury the Dead (Mrtvé pohřbívati). První román Mladí lvi (česky 1963) publikoval v roce 1948 a čerpal v něm ze svých zážitků v Evropě za druhé světové války. Z dalších románů jsou to například Tomu dala, tomu víc (1970, česky 1994), Noční kořist (1975, česky 1989) nebo Chléb na vodách (1981, česky 1985). Proslavil se také povídkovými soubory; Láska v temné ulici (Love on a Dark Street, 1965) vyšla česky poprvé v roce 1970.
