Assassin´s Creed Odhalení (978-80-7398-208-9)

Kniha - autor Oliver Bowden, 272 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Začíná šestnácté století. Templáři v čele s rodem Borgiů byli sice navenek poraženi, ale přesto se stále nevzdávají šance získat opět moc. Prostředkem by se měla stát tajemná knihovna zapečetěná kdysi dávným asasínským Strážcem Altairem Ibn-La'Ahádem v syrské pevnosti Masyaf. Tu templáři ovládají a jejich cíl je jediný - knihovnu odpečetit a dostat se k Altairovu odkazu. Cestu k němu dláždí zisk několika knih, rozesetých před lety Niccolem Polem po různých místech Konstantinopole. Stárnoucí asasínský Strážce Ezio Auditore cítí, že konec života se blíží, přesto ví, že jeho úkol ještě nebyl dokončen. Vydává se tak až do Byzancie, aby sám odhalil tajemství, které by mohlo změnit nejen jeho vlastní náhled na svět, ale i celkovou rovnováhu sil v boji mezi věčnými nepřáteli - asasíny a templáři. Uspěje, nebo jeho celoživotní snaha zůstane nenaplněna?

The New Breed - Darling Kate

A bold, optimistic exploration of the relationship between robots and humans based on our history with animals, from a renowned MIT researcherThe robots are here. They make our cars, they deliver fast food, they mine the sea floor. And in the near-future their presence will increasingly enter our homes and workplaces - making human-robot interaction a frequent, everyday occurrence. What will this future look like? What will define the relationship between humans and robots?Here Kate Darling, a world-renowned expert in robot ethics, shows that in order to understand the new robot world, we must first move beyond the idea that this technology will be something like us. Instead, she argues, we should look to our relationship with animals. Just as we have harnessed the power of animals to aid us in war and work, so too will robots supplement - rather than replace - our own skills and abilities.A deeply original analysis of our technological future and the ethical dilemmas that await us, The New Breed explains how the treatment of machines can reveal a new understanding of our own history, our own systems and how we relate - not just to non-humans, but also to each other.

The Walnut Tree - Kate Morgan

''Compulsively readable'' – Times Literary Supplement''An outstanding work'' – Philippa Gregory''A powerful narrative told with frankness and sensitivity'' Helen Fry, historian and author of Women In Intelligence''A woman, a dog and a walnut tree, the more they are beaten, the better they’ll be.''So went the proverb quoted by a prominent MP in the Houses of Parliament in 1853. His words – intended ironically in a debate about a rise in attacks on women – summed up the prevailing attitude of the day, in which violence against women was waved away as a part and parcel of modern living – a chilling seam of misogyny that had polluted both parliament and the law. But were things about to change?In this vivid and essential work of historical non-fiction, Kate Morgan explores the legal campaigns, test cases and individual injustices of the Victorian and Edwardian eras which fundamentally re-shaped the status of women under British law. These are seen through the untold stories of women whose cases became cornerstones of our modern legal system and shine a light on the historical inequalities of the law.We hear of the uniquely abusive marriage which culminated in the dramatic story of the ‘Clitheroe wife abduction’; of the domestic tragedies which changed the law on domestic violence; the controversies surrounding the Contagious Diseases Act and the women who campaigned to abolish it; and the real courtroom stories behind notorious murder cases such as the ‘Camden Town Murder’.Exploring the 19th- and early 20th Century legal history that influenced the modern-day stances on issues such as domestic abuse, sexual violence and divorce, The Walnut Treelifts the lid on the shocking history of women under British law – and what it means for women today.
