Na Zemi žije a živoří sedm miliard lidí a neustále se rodí další. Kolik jich ještě planeta dokáže uživit? Podle všeho by kritickou hranicí mohlo být deset miliard Pozemšťanů. Současně neustále ubývá rostlinných a živočišných druhů - ale které z nich jsou nezbytné k zachování lidského druhu, a dokázali bychom zajistit jejich přežití? Existuje nějaký způsob, jak přirozeně zastavit růst lidské populace? A pokud ano, najdeme ekonomický model, který nám zaručí prosperitu bez nutnosti permanentního růstu? Autor provokativního Světa bez nás se ve své nejnovější knize pokouší nalézt v odpovědích na tyto otázky "poslední naději na zachování budoucnosti lidské civilizace na Zemi". Alan Weisman (1947) je oceňovaný novinář a spisovatel. Přispívá do řady významných časopisů, např. Harper's, The New York Times Magazine, Los Angeles Times, Atlantic Monthly aj., je autorem řady knih (mj. Svět bez nás, česky Argo, 2008) a nositelem řady cena za literární i publicistickou činnost.

Zajímalo by vás, co by se stalo, kdyby ze dne na den z naší zeměkoule zmizeli lidé? Jak dlouho by zůstaly po lidech na naší Zemi stopy? Jak rychle by se zhroutila námi vybudovaná infrastruktura? Jak dlouho by bez naší péče vydržely stavby, metro a města? Památky a umění? Co z toho nejdéle, a co by naopak spadlo jako první? Kteří živočichové by z našeho zmizení profitovali, a kteří by naopak zanikli s námi? Předpokládá se např., že by spolu s námi zcela přirozeně vyhynuli švábové, ale ptáci by na tom byli mnohem lépe a vyvinuli by se v mnohé nové druhy. Jak by dopadly farmy, pole, národní parky a zahrady? Nejdelší životnost na Zemi bez nás by měly bronzové sochy, umělá hmota a radiové vlny. Zároveň je z některých oblastí na Zemi, které člověk poničil, a posléze opustil (např. Černobyl), patrné, že příroda má sebeuzdravující moc. Alan Weisman, cenami ověnčený americký novinář, postavil své hypotézy na expertizách inženýrů, konzervátorů umění, klimatologů, zoologů, biologů, astrofyziků, paleontologů a dalších odborníků a napsal knihu, která zcela jedinečně pohlíží na vliv člověka na životní prostředí. Kniha roku časopisu Time, bestseller newyorských Timesú a jeden z nejodvážnějších myšlenkových experimentů.

Acclaimed National Book Award-winning author George Packer diagnoses America''s descent into a failed state, and envisions a path toward overcoming injustices, paralyses, and divides How, in a few decades, did the United States transform from a broadly prosperous middle-class country, with relatively healthy institutions and competent leaders, to a nation defined by discredited elites, hollowed-out institutions, and blatant inequalities-feared and pitied by our friends, mocked and sabotaged by our adversaries, first in the world in Covid cases and deaths, and led in recent years by an incompetent authoritarian bigot? Last Best Hope is a bracing account of our current crisis and of how a new era of civic revitalization may bring it to an end. Combining reportage with historical narrative, autobiography, and political analysis, Packer depicts and assesses the four inadequate narratives that dominate American public life: Libertarian America, which imagines a nation of individuals responsible for their own fate, and serves the interests of corporations and the wealthy; Cosmopolitan America, the ideology of Silicon Valley and the professional elite,which celebrates globalization and leaves many American communities behind; Diverse America, which defines citizens as members of large identity groups that have inflicted or suffered oppression; and White America, a shallow ...

An entirely fresh study of how, at the end of the nineteenth century, Montmartre in Paris inspired a vital, innovative and unique community of artists who revolutionized Western art.After the 1871 Paris Commune, Montmartre played a significant political, social, and artistic role; its revolutionary spirit attracted independent artists, writers, and musicians, and its cabarets, cafés, circus, dancehalls, and theaters such as the cabarets Lapin Agile, Le Chat Noir, and Quat’z’arts, the Cirque Fernando, the Elysée Montmartre, the Moulin de la Galette, and Moulin Rouge dance halls made Montmartre a popular cultural center. Avant-garde artists, writers and performers from one generation encountered those of the next on the streets, in the cafés and places of entertainment. Post 1900 the area lost much of its cutting-edge, anti-establishment aura, but its reputation as a haven for a free-loving, radical, bohemian life-style continued to appeal to young artists such as Pablo Picasso, who first came to Paris to visit the World Fair and who later settled in Montmartre as a place to work and create.Drawing on important artworks from the Weisman Collection and the Musée de Montmarte, Paris, as well as a wealth of archival photography, maps, and prints to illustrate its narrative text, ...

Our Last Year is a book about change; through the internal narration of its two characters, the novel follows the disintegration and renewal of a marriage, in synthesis with a much wider natural reality. It tells a story of damage and destruction, both painful and restorative, and necessary. The trajectory of the novel – of becoming part of the evolutionary process, awake to it, enlivened by it, compassionate towards it – is dramatised through two minds, asking readers to reconsider their relationship with themselves, with others, and with the planet itself.‘A lucid and refreshingly uplifting masterpiece about a fraught period in the life of a married couple, Our Last Year surprised and moved and entranced me, calming and healing me with its wisdom and perspectives.’ – Tao Lin

This richly illustrated book celebrates in words and pictures the beautiful work that award-winning artist Alan Lee produced for J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, and includes dozens of brand-new paintings and pencil drawings exploring the world of Bilbo Baggins. Since The Hobbit was first published in 1937, generations of readers have fallen under its spell. That magic was reignited sixty years later, when Alan Lee was commissioned to produce a special illustrated edition, and his delicate pencil drawings and beautiful watercolour paintings have become for many the definitive vision of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. In this sumptuous, large-format hardback Alan Lee reveals in pictures and in words how he created these images, which would prove so powerful, matching perfectly with Tolkien's own vision, that they would eventually define the look of Peter Jackson's film adaptations and earn Alan a coveted Academy Award. The Hobbit Sketchbook is filled with more than 100 of his sketches and early conceptual pieces that reveal how the project progressed from idea to finished art.

“We developed reputations real fast. We treated our entertainers right. We got them paid. Other agents and promoters and managers showed them the money. We got them the money. We brought respect to the African American artist in America. We brought them prestige. We really cared about our artists and those who worked for us, and it was obvious because we fought like hell for them. So when you listen to some of that music today—an Otis Redding record or Percy Sledge or anyone from our shop—you’re not just hearing music but also the sound of iron being hammered and bricks being laid for those—especially African Americans—who are in the business today.” Alan WaldenSouthern Man is the memoir of a life in music during one of the most racially turbulent times in American history. It presents the voice of Alan Walden—a remarkable, sensitive, humble, and brilliant man; a boy from the country who, serendipitously, along with his brother Phil and best friend Otis Redding, helped to nurture a musical renaissance. It is the story of a son of Macon, Georgia, and his passion for R&B and rock’n’roll at a time when it took wits and a Southern persistence to overcome ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Few Canadian musicians or authors are as synonymous with their home province as Alan Doyle is with Newfoundland. And now Alan wants to introduce the rest of the world to his home, taking readers on a freewheeling, eclectic trip through the province. From Fogo Island to the Southwest Coast, Labrador to Ferryland and everywhere in-between, Alan''s Newfoundland awaits. There are plenty of stops along the way to admire the sites and take in the history and culture. Among the stops, a discussion of Newfoundland''s eccentric place names, which include Horse Chops Island, Bread and Cheese Cove, and, the (in)famous, Dildo. There are visits to wind-swept coastlines and towering crags, former Beothuk, Viking and Basque settlements, as well as more recent settlements, such as Foley''s Shed, a jaunty live-music pub that - as its name suggests - happens to be located in some guy named Foley''s shed. There are savvy insider tips, such as how to score fish and chips and a free ride by hopping into the delivery person''s car as they deliver your food to your desired destination.

The Bay City Rollers were one of the brightest things to happen in the tumultuous 1970s, illuminating a dark decade marred by falling stock markets, a plummeting economy and industrial unrest. Alan Longmuir, an apprentice plumber from Edinburgh, was inspired by The Beatles to form a band in the 1960s. Firstly, he enlisted his brother and then his cousin and via throwing a dart at a map they eventually became the Bay City Rollers. Success was slow in coming but when it did it was beyond Alan’s (and almost everyone else’s) wildest dreams.A string of million selling records led to Rollermania – a mass-hysterical fan reaction not seen since Beatlemania. Like a wildfire it spread across the world. The Rollers’ juggernaut was out-of-control. Alan Longmuir recounts his surreal journey from the Dalry backstreets to the Hollywood hills and back to being a plumber. Along the way he punctures some of the myths and untruths that have swirled around the group. Most of all, though, Alan captures the great adventure that a bunch of young boys from Edinburgh embarked on that for a few years threatened to turn the whole world tartan.

Today, Alan Turing is a well-recognised name, but it was not always so. Until the last few years of the 20th century hardly anyone had heard of him or his achievements. All that changed when the British government permitted the story of Bletchley Park during the Second World War to emerge.We learnt that Alan Turing had had a pivotal role in breaking the Enigma cipher, used by German forces.This was so significant that it helped to shorten the length of the war. Alan Turing was an extraordinary man who crammed into a life of only 42 years other careers besides secret codebreaker: he was also a mathematician, computer scientist and biologist. For example, with Tommy Flowers he built the first computer. A man ahead of his time, many of his theories and calculations are still relevant today. In this guide to a truly remarkable life, recent research by Alan Turing''s nephew, Dermot, has unearthed a fresh perspective and made entirely accessible this story to the modern reader.

‘Louis Napoleon’s story is certainly remarkable. Alan Strauss-Schom tells it with brio in The Shadow Emperor… This is a boldly revisionist biography… For all the corruption and repression that marked his reign, Louis Napoleon may have done more for France than his famous uncle.’ (Alan Massie, Wall Street Journal)This is the definitive biography, and the first in twenty years, of Louis-Napoléon III, whose controversial achievements have notoriously divided historians. Here, pre-eminent Napoléon Bonaparte expert and Pulitzer Prize-nominated historian Alan Strauss-Schom focuses on his successor Louis-Napoléon, overshadowed for too long by his more romanticized forebear. Strauss-Schom employs years of primary source research to explore the massive cultural, social, economical, financial, international, and military impact of France''s most polarizing emperor. Louis-Napoléon completely revolutionized the state and the economy, but amid gross financial scandals. His expansion of the French Empire was praised by the French military and resisted by the socialists. He expanded the railways to rival England''s; created new transoceanic steamship lines and a modern navy; introduced a new banking sector supported by seemingly unlimited venture capital; and even oversaw the creation of the first large department stores.

Zatím ji využívá především k líčení pastí na své nepřátelsky naladěné starší sestry, avšak brzy bude mít příležitost uplatnit své poznatky – zvláště pak o jedech – při vyšetřování zločinu. Jednoho dne najdou de Luceovi přede dveřmi svého domu mrtvého ptáka s poštovní známkou v zobáku, což Flaviina otce filatelistu velmi rozruší. Nedlouho poté vyslechne dívenka noční hádku mezi otcem a tajemným návštěvníkem a časně ráno pak najde na zahradě umírajícího muže, který jí těsně před smrtí pošeptá „vale“. Z vraždy je obviněn Flaviin otec a Flavia začne vyšetřovat na vlastní pěst, aby očistila jméno rodiny. Záhy nabude podezření, že současný zločin patrně nějak souvisí s dávnou děsivou smrtí jednoho z otcových učitelů… Malá, ale inteligentní a odvážná vypravěčka nás s nadhledem a nezřídka překvapivě pronikavou ironií zavede do prostředí anglického venkova padesátých let minulého století.
