Chemistry Lessons - Meredith Goldstein
From advice columnist Meredith Goldstein, a dazzling, romantic, and emotionally resonant YA debut about a teen science whiz in Cambridge, Massachusetts, who tries to crack the chemical equation for lasting love and instead wreaks havoc on herself and the boys in her life. For seventeen-year-old Maya, the equation for happiness is simple: a dream internship at MIT + two new science nerd friends + a perfect boyfriend = one amazing summer. Then Whit dumps her out of the blue. Maya is miserable until she discovers that her scientist mother, before she died, was conducting research on manipulating pheromones to enhance human attraction. If Maya can finish her mother’s work, maybe she can get Whit back. But when her experiment creates chaos in her love life, she realizes that maybe love and loss can’t be understood using the scientific method. Can she learn to trust the unmeasurables of love and attraction instead?

Goldstein píše dceři (CD) - audiokniha
Audioknihu Goldstein píše dceři napsala autorka: Irena Dousková, čte: Arnošt Goldflam. Tatonová audiokniha navazuje na úspěšnou audioknihu Hrdý Budžes. Album doplňuje do tetralogie audioknihy Hrdý Budžes, Oněgin byl Rusák a Darda. Prvotinou Goldstein píše dceři započala autorka Irena Dousková řadu populárních knih se silnými autobiografickými rysy - Hrdý Budžes, Oněgin byl Rusák a Darda. Otec hlavní hrdinky Helenky Součkové, zde zvané Klára Kalousková, Freistein, zde nazvaný Goldstein, odešel počátkem šedesátých let do Izraele. Celých dvacet čtyři let se snažil zapomenout na rodinu, kterou v Čechách opustil. Malá holčička žila s nepřítomným otcem v jakési zvláštní nepřátelské symbióze. Po letech, již dospělá, zatoužila otce poznat a oslovila jej. Nastala mimořádná korespondence, v níž se provinilý Goldstein, již slavný filmový režisér, zoufale snaží vynahradit ztracená léta promarněného rodičovského vztahu. Příběh, psaný v dopisech, se odehrává na přelomu 80. až 90. let a vypráví o otcovské lásce i sebelásce. Interpretace Arnošta Goldflama dotvořila psanou korespondenci v nový dramatický útvar, který mimořádně citlivě a s pochopením odkrývá niterné rozporuplné pocity hlavního hrdiny. V bonusu tohoto kompletu se vrátíme na konec Hrdého Budžese, v němž Bára Hrzánová, v roli malé Helenky, dokumentuje svůj postoj ke zmizelému otci.

A Bright Future - Joshua S. Goldstein
The inspiration for Nuclear Now, the new Oliver Stone film, co-written by Joshua Goldstein As climate change quickly approaches a series of turning points that guarantee disastrous outcomes, a solution is hiding in plain sight. Several countries have already replaced fossil fuels with low-carbon energy sources, and done so rapidly, in one to two decades. By following their methods, we could decarbonize the global economy by midcentury, replacing fossil fuels even while world energy use continues to rise. But so far we have lacked the courage to really try. In this clear-sighted and compelling book, Joshua Goldstein and Staffan Qvist explain how clean energy quickly replaced fossil fuels in such places as Sweden, France, South Korea, and Ontario. Their people enjoyed prosperity and growing energy use in harmony with the natural environment. They didn't do this through personal sacrifice, nor through 100 percent renewables, but by using them in combination with an energy source the Swedes call käkraft, hundreds of times safer and cleaner than coal. Clearly written and beautifully illustrated, yet footnoted with extensive technical references, Goldstein and Qvist's book will provide a new touchstone in discussions of climate change. It could spark a shift in world energy policy ... Unknown localization key: "more"

True History of the First Mrs. Meredith and Other Lesser Lives - Gornick Vivian, Diane Johnson
A classic of alternative biography and feminist writing, this empathetic and witty book gives due to a "lesser" figure of history, Mary Ellen Peacock Meredith, who was brilliant, unconventional, and at odds with the constraints of Victorian life. “Many people have described the Famous Writer presiding at his dinner table. . . . He is famous; everybody remembers his remarks. . . . We forget that there were other family members at the table—a quiet person, now muffled by time, shadowy, whose heart pounded with love, perhaps, or rage.” So begins The True History of the First Mrs. Meredith and Other Lesser Lives, an uncommon biography devoted to one of those “lesser lives.” As the author points out, “A lesser life does not seem lesser to the person who leads one.” Such sympathy and curiosity compelled Diane Johnson to research Mary Ellen Peacock Meredith (1821–1861), the daughter of the famous artist Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866) and first wife of the equally famous poet George Meredith (1828–1909). Her life, treated perfunctorily and prudishly in biographies of Peacock or Meredith, is here exquisitely and unhurriedly given its due. What emerges is the portrait of a brilliant, well-educated woman, raised unconventionally by her ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Decolonizing Ethnography - Carolina Alonso Bejarano, Mirian A. Mijangos Garcia, Lucia Lopez Juarez, Daniel M. Goldstein
In August 2011, ethnographers Carolina Alonso Bejarano and Daniel M. Goldstein began a research project on undocumented immigration in the United States by volunteering at a center for migrant workers in New Jersey. Two years later, Lucia LÓpez JuÃrez and Mirian A. Mijangos GarcÃa-two local immigrant workers from Latin America-joined Alonso Bejarano and Goldstein as research assistants and quickly became equal partners for whom ethnographic practice was inseparable from activism. In Decolonizing Ethnography the four coauthors offer a methodological and theoretical reassessment of social science research, showing how it can function as a vehicle for activism and as a tool for marginalized people to theorize their lives. Tacking between personal narratives, ethnographic field notes, an original bilingual play about workers' rights, and examinations of anthropology as a discipline, the coauthors show how the participation of Mijangos GarcÃa and LÓpez JuÃrez transformed the project's activist and academic dimensions. In so doing, they offer a guide for those wishing to expand the potential of ethnography to serve as a means for social transformation and decolonization.

Dva eseje o komedii - Alena Dvořáková, George Meredith
George Meredith: Esej o komedii a uplatnění komického ducha Alena Dvořáková: Studie k Meredithovu Eseji o komedii Smát se, či nesmát? To je otázka, již se viktoriánský romanopisec George Meredith snaží rozlousknout v dnes již klasickém Eseji o komedii z roku 1877, který je tu čtenáři poprvé představen v anotovaném českém překladu. Esej je zábavnou polemikou namířenou proti neživotným hodnotám viktoriánské společnosti, zejména proti důrazu na vážnost, na úzce definovaný společenský užitek, na ideál ženskosti spočívající v nerovnosti pohlaví. Coby jejich protiváhu obhajuje Meredith komično na divadle i ve společnosti: "existují témata a osoby, s nimiž je radno zacházet výhradně v komickém duchu." Doprovodná studie Aleny Dvořákové zasazuje Esej do kontextu anglické a západoevropské literatury o smíchu a komičnu a podrobně rozebírá Meredithův přístup ke komedii. Alena Dvořáková (nar. 1973 v Praze) je anglistka, literární kritička a překladatelka. Zabývá se zejména viktoriánskou literaturou, současnou anglofonní prózou a jejími překlady do češtiny. Je autorkou řady kritických a literárněvědných článků a recenzí, do češtiny přeložila román Cormaca McCarthyho Suttree (Argo, 2012). Vyučovala literaturu a filosofii na University of East Anglia v Norwichi, University College a Trinity College v Dublinu a na Jihočeské univerzitě v Českých Budějovicích. V současnosti je na volné noze.

Eggs I Have Laid - Meredith Willson
Back in print: the playful and personal memoir of Meredith Willson’s creative tribulations and triumphs before The Music Man Composer, musical director, writer, lecturer, and piccoloist Meredith Willson laid many eggs throughout his career—but not all those eggs would hatch quite so gloriously as his Broadway hit The Music Man. In Eggs I Have Laid, Willson genially chronicles the failures that he faced as he made his place in show business during the pivotal early 1950s, when radio was being overtaken by television. From Hollywood to New York, London, and Paris, and back to his hometown of Mason City, Iowa, Willson sets each scene vividly, bringing to life his encounters with zeitgeist stars, from collaborators Tallulah Bankhead and Fred Allen to Orson Welles and Carmen Miranda. His signature wit excels as he relates his tales of eggs dropped, notable among them the lavishly produced variety program The Big Show, his ill-fated attempt to be a radio bulwark against the encroaching tide of television. First published in 1955, Eggs I Have Laid features delightful curiosities, like an eight-page “platonic dialogue” about quitting smoking and the lyrics to a love song with the occupancy limits of the New York Fire Code as ...

Chemistry - Peter Atkins
Most people remember chemistry from their schooldays as largely incomprehensible, a subject that was fact-rich but understanding-poor, smelly, and so far removed from the real world of events and pleasures that there seemed little point, except for the most introverted, in coming to terms with its grubby concepts, spells, recipes, and rules. Peter Atkins wants to change all that. In this Very Short Introduction to Chemistry, he encourages us to look at chemistry anew, through a chemist''s eyes, in order to understand its central concepts and to see how it contributes not only towards our material comfort, but also to human culture. Atkins shows how chemistry provides the infrastructure of our world, through the chemical industry, the fuels of heating, power generation, and transport, as well as the fabrics of our clothing and furnishings. By considering the remarkable achievements that chemistry has made, and examining its place between both physics and biology, Atkins presents a fascinating, clear, and rigorous exploration of the world of chemistry - its structure, core concepts, and exciting contributions to new cutting-edge technologies.

'Meredith has given a spectacularly clear view of the African political jungle' – Spectator 'This book is hard to beat... Elegantly written as well as unerringly accurate' – Financial Times The fortunes of Africa have changed dramatically since the independence era began in 1957. As Europe’s colonial powers withdrew, dozens of new states were born. Africa was a continent rich in mineral resources and its economic potential was immense. Yet, it soon struggled with corruption, violence and warfare, with few states managing to escape the downward spiral. So what went wrong? In this riveting and authoritative account, Martin Meredith examines the myriad problems that Africa has faced, focusing upon key personalities, events and themes of the independence era. He brings his compelling analysis into the modern day, exploring Africa’s enduring struggles for democracy and the rising influence of China. It is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the continent’s plight and its hopes for a brighter future.
