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.

Kniha - autor Robin Dunbar, 352 stran, anglicky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá When did humans develop spiritual thought? What is religion's evolutionary purpose? And in our increasingly secular world, why has it endured? Every society in the history of humanity has lived with religion. In How Religion Evolved, evolutionary psychologist Professor Robin Dunbar tracks its origins back to what he terms the 'mystical stance' - the aspect of human psychology that predisposes us to believe in a transcendent world, and which makes an encounter with the spiritual possible. As he explores world religions and their many derivatives, as well as religions of experience practised by hunter-gatherer societies since time immemorial, Dunbar argues that this instinct is not a peculiar human quirk, an aberration on our otherwise efficient evolutionary journey. Rather, religion confers an advantage: it can benefit our individual health and wellbeing, but, more importantly, it...

Kniha - autor Robert D.

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,...

“Destined to become a classic of modern war reporting.”—Luke Harding, author of Invasion and #1 New York Times bestseller Collusion A raw, irreverent account of a young Ukrainian reporter on-the-ground as his country heroically defends itself against the Russian invasion. In late February 2022, a series of missiles and rocket strikes began falling upon Ukraine, as the Russian military barreled over the border and fanned out across the country. First they took Chernobyl, then Kherson, then Mariupol. Time stood still as the world waited for Ukraine to flatten underneath the boot of its neighbor. Meanwhile, on the front lines in the capital city, Kyiv Independent reporter Illia Ponomarenko was seeing a different story on unfold: after months—years—of waiting for this long-feared attack, Ukraine was fed up and ready to fight back. The Russians bogged down hard in combat east and west of Kyiv. They got exhausted. They screwed up logistics. They sustained heavy losses. Their unbelievably overconfident blitz was failing.I Will Show You How It Was is Illia Ponomarenko’s heart-wrenching memoir of the war on his homeland, offering a fiery diatribe against Russian hypocrisy and a moving look at what is being lost. But it’s also a story of pride and even elation as Ukrainian forces come together, find their mojo, and oust the invaders from Kyiv. The most powerful and personal chronicle of the war to date, I Will Show You How It Was is an exceptional literary achievement, chronicling a stunning feat of resistance and a courageous people set on a miraculous victory.

Why do some prime ministers manage to get things done, while others miserably fail? What is a ''special adviser'' and how did they take over British political life? And why is the House of Lords more functional than most people think?Most of us have a sense that our political system doesn''t seem to work, but struggle to articulate exactly why. And for good reason: our political and financial institutions are cloaked in secrecy, archaic terminology, ancient custom and impenetrable jargon. Now, expert political journalist Ian Dunt is lifting the lid on British politics to expose every aspect of the setup in a way that can be understood and challenged. From Downing Street to Whitehall, the Commons to the Lords, this book is an indispensable guide to our political system - and how we might begin to fix it.

A fascinating analysis of the evolution of religion from the internationally renowned evolutionary psychologistWhen did humans develop spiritual thought? What is religion's evolutionary purpose? And in our increasingly secular world, why has it endured?Every society in the history of humanity has lived with religion. In How Religion Evolved, evolutionary psychologist Professor Robin Dunbar tracks its origins back to what he terms the 'mystical stance' - the aspect of human psychology that predisposes us to believe in a transcendent world, and which makes an encounter with the spiritual possible. As he explores world religions and their many derivatives, as well as religions of experience practised by hunter-gatherer societies since time immemorial, Dunbar argues that this instinct is not a peculiar human quirk, an aberration on our otherwise efficient evolutionary journey. Rather, religion confers an advantage: it can benefit our individual health and wellbeing, but, more importantly, it fosters social bonding at large scale, helping hold fractious societies together. Dunbar suggests these dimensions might provide the basis for an overarching theory for why and how humans are religious, and so help unify the myriad strands that currently populate this field.Drawing on path-breaking research, clinical case studies and fieldwork from around the globe, as well as stories of charismatic cult leaders, mysterious sects and lost faiths, How Religion Evolved offers a fascinating and far-reaching analysis of this quintessentially human impulse - to believe.

Kam půjde Homo Deus? - autor Yuval Noah Harari, čte Luboš Ondráček Po bestselleru Sapiens obrací Yuval Noah Harari zájem k budoucnosti...Po bestselleru Sapiens – Úchvatný i úděsný příběh lidstva obrací Yuval Noah Harari zájem k budoucnosti. Analyzuje, jaké důsledky mohou nastat, když se tradiční kolektivní mýty lidstva utkají s novými „božskými“ technologiemi, jako jsou např. umělá inteligence nebo genetické inženýrství.Harari představuje vizi nepříliš vzdáleného světa, v němž zřejmě budeme čelit novým typům výzev. V knize Homo deus – Stručné dějiny zítřka zkoumá naši budoucnost svým typickým způsobem, v němž kombinuje především historii, filozofii a přírodní vědy, ale i poznatky dalších oborů. Jak to dopadne s demokracií, když firmy jako Google a Facebook budou znát naše záliby a preference (včetně politických) lépe než my sami? Co se stane se sociálním státem, jestliže...

The first time Lara Marlowe interviewed Lieutenant Yulia Mykytenko in Ukraine in 2023, Marlowe realized that the 28-year-old woman army officer was one of the most extraordinary people she had encountered in 42 years of journalism.Mykytenko was born in Kyiv in July 1995. She co-founded the ‘female squad’ of the 16th regiment of the Self-Defence Force during the 2013/14 Euromaidan protests, which overthrew the corrupt, pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych. She married Illia Serbin, a soldier, in 2015 and joined the army to serve with him in Donbas the following year. Mykytenko briefly left the army after her husband was killed in a Russian bombardment, but re-enlisted on the first day of the full-scale Russian invasion of 24 February 2022. She commands a 25-man drone unit on the frontline in Donbas.Drawing from a series of interviews with Mykytenko through the winter of 2023/24, Marlowe paints a searing portrait of life on the frontline and offers insights into Ukraine’s past and possible future. How Good It Is I Have No Fear of Dying is a compelling story of a country at war and a fearless woman fighting for its survival.

We spend our lives gathering - first in classrooms and then in meetings, weddings, conferences and away days. Yet so many of us spend this time in underwhelming moments that fail to engage us, inspire us, or connect us. We've all sat in meetings where people talk past each other or go through the motions and others which galvanize a team and remind everyone why they first took the job. We've been to weddings that were deeply moving and others that were run-of-the-mill and simply faded away. Why do some moments take off and others fizzle? What's the difference between the gatherings that inspire you and the ones that don't? In The Art of Gathering, Priya Parker gets to the heart of these questions and reveals how to design a transformative gathering. An expert on organizing successful gatherings whether in conference centres or her living room, Parker shows us how to create moving, magical, mind-changing experiences - even in spaces where we've come to expect little.

An exhilarating journey through the most creative and catastrophic f*ck ups in human history, from our very first ancestor falling out of that tree, to the most spectacular fails of the present day. In the seventy thousand years that modern human beings have walked this earth, we've come a long way. Art, science, culture, trade - on the evolutionary food chain, we're real winners. But, frankly, it's not exactly been plain sailing, and sometimes - just occasionally - we've managed to really, truly, quite unbelievably f*ck things up. From Chairman Mao's Four Pests Campaign, to the American Dustbowl; from the Austrian army attacking itself one drunken night, to the world's leading superpower electing a reality TV mogul as President... it's pretty safe to say that, as a species, we haven't exactly grown wiser with age. So, next time you think you've really f*cked up, this book will remind you: it could be so much worse... PRAISE FOR HUMANS: 'In dark times, it's reassuring to learn that we've always been a bunch of clueless f*cking nitwits' Stuart Heritage, author of Don't Be a Dick, Pete 'A light-touch history of moments when humans have got it spectacularly wrong... Both read able and entertaining' Telegraph

Projekt Deus Artis shrnuje téměř padesátiletou fotografickou činnost kameramana a režiséra Jaroslav Brabce věnovanou výrazným osobnostem umění.V počátcích se jeho zájem soustředil především na české umělce, postupně se rozšířil o osobnosti umění světového. Návštěvy v ateliérech umělců se postupně stávaly návštěvami u přátel. Mezi portrétovanými jsou dnes již klasici české výtvarné scény jako například Václav Boštík, Jan Zrzavý, Jiří Kolář, Zdeněk Sýkora, Alena Kučerová, Magdalena Jetelová, Adriena Šimotová nebo Karel Malich, Milan Grygar, Stanislav Kolíbal, Kamil Lhoták. Zastoupeni jsou ale i nejvýznamnější současní čeští tvůrci: Eva Koťátková, Krištof Kintera, Jiří Černický, Antonín Kratochvíl, Jaroslav Róna, Viktor Pivovarov, Kurt Gebauer, František Skála či Josef Koudelka a mnoho dalších. Nechybí ani hvězdy světového uměleckého světa jako například Ai Weiweie, Georg Baselitz, Yoko Ono, Gerhard Richter. V knize najdeme také fotografie ze setkání s hudebními skladateli, například s Philipem Glassem a Krzysztofem Pendereckim, nebo se spisovateli: Pavlem Kohoutem, Arnoštem Lustigem, Lenkou Reinerovou a mnoha dalšími. Přesto portréty uveřejněné v této knize tvoří jen zhruba polovinu těch, které Brabcův archiv obsahuje.Fotografie jednotlivých umělců jsou doplněny krátkými osobními texty Jaroslava Brabce. Vypovídají mnoho nejen o portrétovaných, ale i o autorovi samotném.

From the author of the number 1 global bestseller Sapiens **The Top Ten Sunday Times Bestseller** Sapiens showed us where we came from. Homo Deus shows us where we're going. War is obsolete. You are more likely to commit suicide than be killed in conflict. Famine is disappearing. You are at more risk of obesity than starvation. Death is just a technical problem. Equality is out - but immortality is in. What does our future hold? Yuval Noah Harari, author of the bestselling phenomenon Sapiens envisions a not-too-distant world in which we face a new set of challenges. Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century - from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? 'Homo Deus will shock you. It will entertain you. Above all, it will make you think in ways you had not thought before' Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking Fast, and Slow Dr Yuval Noah Harari has a PhD in History from the University of Oxford and now lectures at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, specialising in World History. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind has become an international phenomenon attracting a legion of fans from Bill Gates and Barack Obama to Chris Evans and Jarvis Cocker, and is published in nearly 40 languages worldwide. It was a Sunday Times Number One bestseller and was in the Top Ten for over six months in paperback. His follow-up to Sapiens, Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow was also a Top Ten Bestseller and was described by the Guardian as ‘even more readable, even more important, than his excellent Sapiens'.

Inter arma silent musae. Platilo to ale vždy? Píše se rok 412 př. n. l. a Gelón ze Syrákús se s něčím podobným nehodlá jen tak smířit, a tak společně se zasněným Lampónem mezi válkou vyčerpanými athénskými zajatci hledá šťastlivce, kteří si za ždibec jídla vybaví alespoň jednu repliku z některé tragédie bájného Eurípida. Nakonec se urodí šťastná myšlenka. Vyprahlí zajatci, uvězněni v dolech a spalováni neúprosným sluncem, by přece jistě uvítali příležitost secvičit Médeiu. Vojenská síla Athén možná selhala, ale umění má stále ještě naději a z prostých hrnčířů ze Syrákús se mohou stát mocní režiséři. Ferdia Lennon rozehrává partii chytrého humoru, v níž se střetávají nejen rozličné stylové rejstříky, ale také absurdita vtipu s hutností románu, do něhož vtip dorůstá.

Vo svojom kritikmi uznávanom medzinárodnom bestselleri, Sapiens, Yuval Noah Harari vysvetlil, ako sa ľudstvu podarilo ovládnuť planétu. V knihe Homo Deus skúma budúcnosť ľudstva a ponúka víziu zajtrajška, ktorá sa zdá byť nezrozumiteľná, ale časom sa stane neodvratná: ľudstvo stratí nielen svoju dominanciu, ale aj samotný zmysel.Za posledné storočie sa ľudstvu podarilo nemožné: premeniť nekontrolovateľné sily prírody - hladomor, epidémie a vojny - na zvládnuteľné výzvy. Dnes zomiera viac ľudí na prejedanie ako na hladomor, viac ľudí zomiera na starobu ako na infekčné choroby a samovraždu spácha viac ľudí, ako stihnú zabiť vojaci, teroristi a zločinci dohromady. Sme jediným druhom v dlhej histórii Zeme, ktorému sa samotnému podarilo zmeniť celú planétu, a už sme prestali očakávať, že by naše osudy mohla formovať nejaká vyššia sila.Čo nahradí hladomor, epidémie a vojny na prvých miestach ľudského snaženia? Aký osud si pripravíme a aké ciele budeme sledovať? Homo Deus skúma projekty, sny a nočné mory, ktoré budú formovať dvadsiate prvé storočie, od prekonania smrti po vytvorenie umelého života. Lenže pri dosahovaní týchto cieľov môže nakoniec väčšina ľudských bytostí stratiť svoj zmysel. Čo budeme robiť potom? A ako ochránime tento krehký svet pred svojimi vlastnými ničivými silami? Nemôžeme zastaviť chod histórie, ale môžeme ovplyvniť jej smerovanie.Predvídanie budúcnosti obvykle predpokladá, že zajtrajšok bude v podstate veľmi podobný dnešku - že budeme mať úžasné nové technológie, ale stále nás budú usmerňovať staré dobré humanistické hodnoty ako sloboda a rovnosť. Homo Deus tieto predpoklady rúca a naznačuje širokú škálu alternatívnych možností, s provokatívnymi argumentmi na každej strane. Napríklad:" Hlavné produkty ekonomiky dvadsiateho prvého storočia nebudú textílie, autá ani zbrane, ale telá, mozgy a mysle." Priemyselná revolúcia vytvorila pracujúcu triedu, ďalšia veľká revolúcia vytvorí zbytočnú triedu." Spôsob, akým my ľudia zaobchádzame so zvieratami, nastavuje zrkadlo, ako budú vylepšení superľudia zaobchádzať s nami." Demokracia a voľný trh sa zrútia, keď nás Google a Facebook budú poznať lepšie ako my sami, a autorita sa presunie z jednotlivých ľudí na zosieťované algoritmy." Ľudia nebudú proti strojom bojovať - splynú s nimi. Smerujeme skôr k manželstvu ako vojne.Takto vyzerá nový svet a priepasť medzi tými, ktorí naskočia na palubu, a tými, ktorí sa neprispôsobia, bude väčšia ako priepasť medzi priemyselnými impériami a agrárnymi kmeňmi, dokonca väčšia aj ako medzi Homo sapiens a neandertálcami. Toto je ďalšia fáza evolúcie. Toto je Homo deus.

Po třetí světové válce vznikne kolem arcilotra Carltona Lufteufela náboženská sekta, která svého vůdce nechá prohlásit bohem a dá mu i nové jméno: Deus Irae.

Mc-Masters si užívá své proslulosti, ale pak přijde zakázka od nové sektocírkve, aby vymaloval Lufteufelův portrét. Malíř se rozhodne stanout novému bohu tváří v tvář, protože jedině tak ho bude moci zvěčnit pro příští generace.Knihu napsal Philip K. Dick společně s Rogerem Zelaznym.
