Dakota and Wyatt. Storm and sunshine. Growing up, they were as inseparable as a pair of cowboy boots. The best of friends – or so Dakota thought.

Dakota hasn’t heard a peep from Wyatt in over three years, and during that time, a lot has changed. He’s the hockey world’s golden boy, and she’s developed a reputation as “The Cowboy Killer,” breaking both rodeo records and men’s hearts.

Zrození Evropanů - Johannes Krause, Thomas Trappe - audiokniha

Audiokniha: „Krause a Trappe uchvátí čtenáře nadšením z mladého oboru archeogenetiky a ukážou, že dějiny evropského obyvatelstva jsou příběhem změn, převratů, míšení, migrace, adaptace a samozřejmě i utrpení. Minulost je dekódovaná jako nikdy předtím.“ — Wall Street Journal O knize Takovou knihu o historii ještě nikdo nenapsal. Nezmiňuje žádného krále, žádné náboženství a jen dvě revoluce – tu neolitickou a tu ve čtení DNA. Druhá z nich se odehrála v posledních deseti letech a díky stomilionkrát zrychlené sekvenci genomu konečně odpovídá na otázky, které nás vzrušovaly po staletí: Co z nás dělá lidi? Odkud pocházíme? A jak jsme se stali tím, čím jsme dnes? Strhující vyprávění spojuje poznatky z mnoha jen zdánlivě nesouvisejících oborů.

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"

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.

Hubris - Johannes Krause, Thomas Trappe

Humans are the most intelligent beings this planet has ever produced. But how is it that we can travel into space, cure diseases and decode the fundamentals of life, and at the same time find ourselves faced with an existential crisis that threatens to overwhelm us? What lies behind this uncharacteristic failure to master the most important challenge of our existence? In this compelling book, the leading archaeogeneticist Johannes Krause and the journalist Thomas Trappe investigate what DNA can tell us about how we got where we are and what our future might be. They show how the first humans were defeated again and again and suffered fatal setbacks, and how Homo sapiens succeeded in conquering continents, overcoming natural borders, and bringing other species under its control. But the genetic blueprint that enabled us to get to the place where we are today had one flaw: it didn’t factor in planetary boundaries. Now that we are approaching those boundaries for the first time after millions of years of evolution, an urgent question arises: can we learn to live within the available planetary limits, or are we doomed by our DNA to continue to expand, consume, and absorb the resources around ...

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 ...

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.

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.

From cartoonist Meredith McClaren (co-creator of the acclaimed series Black Cloak) comes a punishing and poignant original graphic novel about the monsters that lurk both in the darkness beyond—and within—us all . . . Let it be said that dying is hard. Nineteen-year-old Ashley Moore found this out firsthand. All Ashley wanted was to keep her head down and work hard until she could escape the small town where she felt she was stagnating. But after waking up one night covered in blood—and irrevocably dead—Ashley finds her foolproof plan for getting out has gone up in smoke, and that something within her has changed. Without a heartbeat and with a disturbing craving for fresh meat, Ashley finds herself in a world that exists just beneath our own: a world of ghouls and monsters and things that go bump in the night. Drawn into the realm of the unusual, getting advice from ancient vampires, dodging angry pack leaders, and becoming the reluctant big sister to some wayward werewolves, Ashley finds it increasingly difficult to put away the parts of her past—and herself—that she wants to ignore.

**SHORTLISTED FOR THE WELLCOME BOOK PRIZE****A GUARDIAN SCIENCE BOOK OF THE YEAR**‘Riveting … invites comparison to Rebecca Skloot''s The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks’NatureThe epic and controversial story of a major breakthrough in cell biology that led to the conquest of rubella and other devastating diseases.Until the late 1960s, tens of thousands of children suffered crippling birth defects if their mothers had been exposed to rubella, popularly known as German measles, while pregnant. There was no vaccine and little understanding of how the disease devastated foetuses. In June 1962, a young biologist in Philadelphia produced the first safe, clean cells that made possible the mass-production of vaccines against many common childhood diseases. Two years later, in the midst of a German measles epidemic, his colleague developed the vaccine that would one day effectively wipe out rubella for good. This vaccine - and others made with those cells - have since protected hundreds of millions of people worldwide, the vast majority of them preschool children. Meredith Wadman’s account of this great leap forward in medicine is a fascinating and revelatory read.

More than a Glitch - Meredith Broussard

When technology reinforces inequality, it's not just a glitch—it's a signal that we need to redesign our systems to create a more equitable world. The word “glitch” implies an incidental error, as easy to patch up as it is to identify. But what if racism, sexism, and ableism aren't just bugs in mostly functional machinery—what if they're coded into the system itself? In the vein of heavy hitters such as Safiya Umoja Noble, Cathy O'Neil, and Ruha Benjamin, Meredith Broussard demonstrates in More Than a Glitch how neutrality in tech is a myth and why algorithms need to be held accountable. Broussard, a data scientist and one of the few Black female researchers in artificial intelligence, masterfully synthesizes concepts from computer science and sociology. She explores a range of examples: from facial recognition technology trained only to recognize lighter skin tones, to mortgage-approval algorithms that encourage discriminatory lending, to the dangerous feedback loops that arise when medical diagnostic algorithms are trained on insufficiently diverse data. Even when such technologies are designed with good intentions, Broussard shows, fallible humans develop programs that can result in devastating consequences. Broussard argues that the solution isn't to make omnipresent tech more inclusive, but to ... Unknown localization key: "more"

If Maya can finish her mother’s work, maybe she can get Whit back.

Visual Communication Design - Jamer Hunt, Meredith Davis

Where do design principles come from? Are they abstract "rules" established by professionals or do they have roots in human experience? And if we encounter these visual phenomena in our everyday lives, how do designers use them to attract our attention, orient our behavior, and create compelling and memorable communication that stands out among the thousands of messages we confront each day? Today’s work in visual communication design shifts emphasis from simply designing objects to designing experiences; to crafting form that acknowledges cognitive and cultural influences on interpretation. In response, Meredith Davis and Jamer Hunt provide a new slant on design basics from the perspective of audiences and users. Chapters break down our interactions with communication as a sequence of meaningful episodes, each with related visual concepts that shape the interpretive experience. Explanatory illustrations and professional design examples support definitions of visual concepts and discussions of context. Work spans print, screen, and environmental applications from around the world. This introduction to visual communication design demystifies the foundational concepts that underpin professional design decisions and shape our experiences in a complex visual world.
