Flint Tools Field Guide - Robert Turner

Our prehistoric ancestors used flint tools every day; they were of vital importance for cutting and scraping, used for hunting, preparing food, making clothing and building shelters, and their remnants are scattered around the countryside.Unearthing such a find is a magical moment – a direct link to events thousands of years before – but how do you identify the piece of flint you find out in the field? Is it only a lump of flint, or did it really have an important function as a tool prized by our ancestors? And how old is it, exactly?In Flint Tools Field Guide, archaeologist and flint knapper Robert Turner opens a window into prehistoric archaeology, using hand-drawn illustrations and photographs to explain how to identify tools and their uses, as well as approximate their age. This is an important insight into how people lived and worked so many years ago.

The Soft Minimalist Home - Abi Dare

Award-winning interiors blogger Abi Dare of These Four Walls reveals a softer, more relaxed approach to minimalism that will enhance your wellbeing and simplify your home.Many of us yearn to turn our homes into calming sanctuaries, but there are still misconceptions of minimalist decor as sterile, unattainable, and devoid of personality. In her first book, interiors stylist and writer Abi Dare busts the myths, demonstrating that minimalist spaces can be warm, welcoming, and as individual as their inhabitants. The Soft Minimalist Home shows how a diverse range of people have created minimalist havens that reflect their tastes and tell their stories. An apartment in London brings unexpected pops of colour, a 1920s Dutch townhouse is filled with light, and a family home in Sweden takes its cues from nature. These home tours are interspersed with practical advice on topics such as choosing a palette, optimizing storage, and adding coziness through texture. Throughout, Abi guides readers to harness the mood-boosting power of minimalist decor for themselves, proving that less really is more.

Building With Flint - David Smith

The use of flint is uniquely interlinked with the history of mankind. In the evolving relationship between humanity and the natural world, the provenance of flint as a resource is, arguably, unparalleled. Its continuing use today is simply another link in a long chain of association that can swiftly transport the craftsman back to his ancient ancestors. In historical terms, humans were relatively quick to discover the usefulness and versatility of flint. It offered itself up readily, rising to the surface of the land. But perhaps part of the enduring fascination we have for flint is that it does not easily give up its secrets. Building with Flint is not only a comprehensive exploration of the history of flint and its traditional uses, properties and applications, but is also an invaluable practical guide for practitioners currently working in the professions of construction, architecture and design. As well as providing detailed insight and advice about good practice in flint work, it also inspires the reader to employ flint in innovative and versatile ways. In addition, this book is for anyone who is simply curious to unearth more about this versatile material and all its quirks and nuances.

Flint Country - Laurence Mitchell

Laurence Mitchell uncovers the stories that flint has to tell us in this celebratory journey through the natural and cultural history of the stone. Beneath the bands of chalk that cover the UK lies flint, a mineral that has shaped our landscape, history and heritage. Flint Country tells the story of this abundant resource’s formation, what we can learn from its fossil records, and how it has been worked with and prized through millennia – from our prehistoric and ancient ancestors through to the present day. Formed over 80 million years ago in ancient sea beds, flint was crucial for early humans, empowering them to hunt, craft, and survive. Far more than simply a building block, this “glass of the stone age” fuelled innovation and became the cornerstone of the industrial and architectural heritage of our chalk regions: Roman engineers blended it with brick to construct roads and fortifications; medieval masons transformed it into dazzling flushwork, iconic landmarks and sculptures; and countless farmers and villagers built cottages of local flint. Whether it is thanks to the seismic geological events that have shaped our landscape, the material we rely on for our homes, or simply the joy of picking up pebbles on the beach, this book shows how flint continues to be a touchstone in our lives.Â

Blaise Pascal - Graham Tomlin

“Readable and expert - a brilliant guide to the life and thought of 17th century Europe's supreme polymath”Tom Holland, host of ‘The Rest is History’ podcast and author of Dominion “A richly detailed account of Pascal's life and times, which displays an energetic sympathy for Pascal's startling combination of intellectual precocity and humble faith.”Rory Stewart, host of ‘The Rest is Politics’ podcast and author of Politics On the Edge “A beautiful, accessible account of one of the era's most remarkable lives”Katherine Rundell, author of Super Infinite: The Transformations of John Donne He lived for just 39 years, yet Blaise Pascal was one of the most remarkable and creative figures of the seventeenth century. He is known for his famous argument 'the wager', but there's so much more to him than that (and most people misunderstand the argument anyway). Pascal can lay claim not only to have built an early version of the modern computer, done ground-breaking work in mathematics and geometry and virtually invented probability theory, but also to have produced one of the most haunting and effective works of Christian apologetics ever written. He is a major intellectual figure at the beginning of the modern age who blends together in his own person and thinking issues that are critical to our age. Blaise Pascal is therefore a crucial figure: not just in the history of European thought, but in how he can shed light on many contemporary debates.

The Unmapped Chronicles will not only leave children entertained, but will also empower them to battle climate change and environmental issues. 'Adventures are unpredictable and often terribly badly behaved – a bit like pickled onions if you’ve ever tried to fork one on a plate – but they have a way of unlocking people and turning them upside down so that all the astonishing things fizzing around inside them start to tumble out…’ Eleven-year-old Casper Tock hates risks, is allergic to adventures and shudders at the thought of unpredictable events. So, it comes as a nasty shock to him when he accidentally stumbles into Rumblestar, an Unmapped Kingdom full of magical beasts. All Casper wants is to find a way home, but Rumblestar is in trouble. An evil harpy called Morg is sending her followers, the Midnights, into the kingdom to wreak havoc and pave the way for her to steal the Unmapped magic for herself. But Casper cannot turn a blind eye because the future of his own world, he discovers, is bound up with that of the Unmapped Kingdoms. And so, together with Utterly Thankless, a girl who hates rules and is allergic to behaving, and her miniature dragon, Arlo, Casper embarks upon an adventure full of cloud giants, storm ogres and drizzle hags. Can he, Utterly and Arlo, the unlikeliest of heroes, save the Unmapped Kingdoms and our world from the clutches of Morg and her Midnights?Live a life filled with adventure with Abi Elphinstone in this brand NEW series where a whole new world is waiting to be discovered...'Imaginative, adventurous and wonderful' Robin Stevens, author of A Murder Most Unladylike series 'The Unmapped Chronicles series is irresistible' Lauren St John, author of The White Giraffe'Abi Elphinstone has created a complete world so believably and effortlessly, I can only marvel' Piers Torday, author of The Last Wild Trilogy 'Brimming with enchantment and adventure' Catherine Doyle, author of The Storm Keeper's Island‘Abi Elphinstone is proving to be a worthy successor to CS Lewis’ The TimesAlso by Abi Elphinstone:The DreamsnatcherThe Shadow KeeperThe Night SpinnerSky Song Winter Magic (anthology)Everdark (World Book Day)JungledropThe Crackledawn DragonEverdark

Bring the Outside In - Abi Dare

Award-winning interiors blogger Abi Dare, author of The Soft Minimalist Home, offers a new take on biophilic design using organic materials, colors and textures to bring the outside in.Nature provides ample inspiration for our homes, and a biophilic approach to design has been shown to enhance our mental and physical wellbeing. But there is more to it than adding lots of plants. Here, Abi Dare explores how to create an inviting home that makes subtle references to the natural world. The book is divided into six sections: color, materials and texture, shape and pattern, light and dark, layout and view, and finishing touches. In each, Abi provides practical tips and presents inspiring case studies, from a city apartment in Rotterdam to a family home in London and a farmhouse in the West Country. Palettes go beyond green, incorporating terracottas, pinks, peaches, blues, and ochers. Wood, stone, plaster, and linen offer a tactile experience, whether sleek and modern or rough-hewn and rustic. Soft curves, flowing lines, and imperfect forms can be used to mimic nature, tempering straight lines and sharp angles. Windows let in sunlight and frame our views of the outside world. Throughout, Abi highlights that biophilic design is not just an abstract theory, but an accessible concept that can make a big difference to our homes and lives.

Kroniky Nezmapovaných království 1: Kašpar a půlnocové - Abi Elphinstoneová - audiokniha

Audiokniha: DRAZÍ DOBRODRUHOVÉ, VÍTEJTE V NEZMAPOVANÉM SVĚTĚ KOUZEL A DOBRODRUŽSTVÍ! Jak známo, dobrodružství jsou velmi nepředvídatelná a občas mohou dopadnout i špatně. Navíc dokážou lidi úplně změnit. Své by vám o tom mohl vyprávět jedenáctiletý KAŠPAR TOCK. Na dobrodružství je doslova alergický a při pomyšlení na nepředvídatelné události mu běhá mráz po zádech. Proto když narazí na tajemnou zemi Hvězdidar, Nezmapované království plné kouzel, zažije nepříjemný šok. Kašpar se chce za každou cenu dostat zpátky domů. Zjistí však, že HVĚZDIDAR má vážné problémy. Zlá harpyje MORGA touží získat tamní magii jen sama pro sebe. A tak když Kašpar narazí na DOČISTU NEVDĚČNOU a jejího miniaturního draka ARLA, vydá se spolu s nimi na dobrodružnou cestu plnou oblačných obrů, hromohnátů a mžibab. Podaří se těm nejnepravděpodobnějším hrdinům na světě zachránit Hvězdidar i ostatní Nezmapovaná království? Život je jeden velký trdlipád... Abi Elphinstoneová vyrůstala ve Skotsku a většinu svého dětství strávila tím, že si stavěla bunkry, schovávala se na stromech a nespoutaně pobíhala po horských údolích. Poté, co byla ze svého stromového bunkru vylákána, studovala angličtinu na Bristolské univerzitě a potom pracovala jako učitelka v Africe, Berkshiru a Londýně. Kromě Kroniky Nezmapovaných království je například také autorkou knih Sky Song (Nebeská píseň) a The Dreamsnatcher Trilogy (Zloději snů), které v češtině zatím nevyšly. Když zrovna nepíše, dobrovolničí pro charitativní organizaci Beanstalk, beseduje na školách, cestuje po světě a od polárního kruhu až k horám Mongolska vyhlíží nové příběhy. David Novotný (*1969) Jako herec začínal v Jihočeském divadle v Českých Budějovicích. V letech 1998–2016 byl členem souboru Dejvického divadla (Cena Alfreda Radoka 2010). Je jedním z nejobsazovanějších herců své generace, výrazné role měl ve filmech Non Plus Ultras, Pravidla lži, O rodičích a dětech, Hodinový manžel, Miss Hanoi a Případ mrtvého nebožtíka. Diváci ho dále znají např. ze snímků Tmavomodrý svět, Karamazovi, Křídla Vánoc, Díra u Hanušovic, Hastrman, Vlastníci, z trilogie Zahradnictví i z TV seriálů: nejnověji díky komediální mepopeji Špunti na cestě, krimi Místo zločinu České Budějovice a dvěma řadám rodičovského dramatu Kukačky.

Audiokniha: Máte rádi své sourozence? Dvojčata Foxana a Fixl jsou spíš nepřátelé, než kamarádi. Soupeří, kdo přijde s geniálním obchodním plánem, zdědí rodinný majetek a vyhne se vyhnanství mezi tučňáky. Jenže potom se nečekaně ocitnou v kouzelném království Praleskáp a začnou zjišťovat, že sucho, které dlouhé měsíce sužuje svět, asi nějak souvisí s harpyjí Morgou a její nezřízenou touhou po moci. A také že na světě jsou i důležitější věci než peníze a ostré lokty. Dobrodružná výprava je zavede do světélkující džungle plné zlatých panterů, oblizní, svištiperů a zakletých chrámů. Dokážou pro jednou spolupracovat a porazit Morgu i s její černou magií?

The Spirituality Gap - Abi Millar

''A beguiling exploration of what contemporary spiritual practices might offer to a world that’s lost its religion'' Dr Sharon Blackie, author of If Women Rose Rooted Abi Millar is looking for something. She grew up in an evangelical church, but after she lost her faith, she found herself searching for spirituality in other places. Torn between the logical part of her brain and the part that secretly believes in magic, and in the wake of a great loss, she wondered whether her crisis of faith was part of a larger story: at a time when more and more people in the Western world are moving away from organised religion, what does spirituality look like?The Spirituality Gap follows Abi as she receives a shamanic healing, drinks ayuahuasca, delves into astrology, experiences an awakening in a lake, and attends an atheist church. Written with great warmth, curiosity and humour, it explores our post-religious world from the perspective of someone who is neither a ‘spiritual but not religious’ hippie nor an angry atheist. Throughout, she asks: how can we embrace ritual in our own lives even if we are wary of religion?
