Reynolds Pamphlet - Alexander Hamilton
The Reynolds Pamphlet (1797) is an essay by Alexander Hamilton. Written while Hamilton was serving as Secretary of the Treasury, the Pamphlet was intended as a defense against accusations that Hamilton had conspired with James Reynolds to misuse funds meant to cover unpaid wages to Revolutionary War veterans. Admitting to an affair with Maria, Reynolds’ wife, Hamilton claims that the accusation is nothing more than an attempt at blackmail. This revelation not only endangered Hamilton’s career as a public figure, but constituted perhaps the earliest sex scandal in American history. “The bare perusal of the letters from Reynolds and his wife is sufficient to convince my greatest enemy that there is nothing worse in the affair than an irregular and indelicate amour. For this, I bow to the just censure which it merits. I have paid pretty severely for the folly and can never recollect it without disgust and self condemnation. It might seem affectation to say more.”Accused of corruption in his role as Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton was forced to confess his adultery, bringing shame to himself as a married man and supposedly honorable public figure, yet saving his political career in the process.

Brit(ish) - Afua Hirsch
Where are you really from?YouÂ’re British. Your parents are British. You were raised in Britain. Your partner, your children, and most of your friends are British.So why do people keep asking you where you are from?Brit(ish) is about a search for identity. It is about the everyday racism that plagues British society. It is about our awkward, troubled relationship with our history. It is about why liberal attempts to be "color-blind" have caused more problems than they have solved. It is about why we continue to avoid talking about race.In this personal and provocative investigation, Afua Hirsch explores a very British crisis of identity. We are a nation in denial about our past and our present. We believe we are the nation of abolition, but forget we are the nation of slavery. We are convinced that fairness is one of our values, but that immigration is one of our problems. Brit(ish) is the story of how and why this came to be, and an urgent call for change.

Futuromania - Simon Reynolds
Simon Reynolds''s first book in eight years is a celebration of music that feels like a taste of tomorrow. Sounds that prefigure pop music''s future - the vanguard genres and heroic innovators whose discoveries eventually get accepted by the wider mass audience. But it''s also about the way music can stir anticipation for a thrillingly transformed world just around the corner: a future that might be utopian or dystopian, but at least will be radically changed and exhilaratingly other. Starting with an extraordinary chapter on Giorgio Moroder and Donna Summer, taking in illuminating profiles of Ryuichi Sakamoto, Boards of Canada, Burial, and Daft Punk, and arguing for Auto-Tune as the defining sound of 21st century pop, Futuromania shapes over two-dozen essays and interviews into a chronological narrative of machine-music from the 1970s to now. Reynolds explores the interface between pop music and science fiction''s utopian dreams and nightmare visions, always emphasising the quirky human individuals abusing the technology as much as the era-defining advances in electronic hardware and digital software.

Mercenary - Mack Reynolds
Mack Reynolds' novel "Mercenary" is a science fiction novel. This thought-provoking tale takes place in a future society dominated by political beliefs, power struggles, and international interactions. Miles Gilbert, the protagonist, is a professional mercenary, a soldier for hire in a world where nations no longer fight traditional wars but instead hire mercenaries to fight on their behalf. Gilbert is a multifaceted figure who navigates a morally confusing environment where loyalty, politics, and personal ethics collide. As the novel progresses, Gilbert becomes engaged in a succession of worldwide wars, each of which is motivated by the interests of strong nations and companies. His experiences shed insight on the complex mechanics of a society where conflict has become a profitable business. Mack Reynolds deftly employs "Mercenary" as a vehicle for exploring themes of war, diplomacy, and the ethics of violence. The story explores concerns about the role of mercenaries in influencing nations' fates, as well as the blurred lines between patriotism and profit. "Mercenary" is a politically charged and intellectually fascinating work of science fiction that asks readers to consider the implications of a society in which violence is outsourced to private warriors.

Roztrhej to a začni znovu - Simon Reynolds
Kniha zkoumá divokou dobrodružnou hudbu vytvořenou po punku. Renomovaný hudební novinář Simon Reynolds oslavuje futuristického ducha Joy Division, Gang of Four, Talking Heads či Devo a dalších kapel, který vyústil v nekonečné inovace v hudbě, textech, vystoupení a stylu a pokračoval počátkem osmdesátých let videem - například důvtipným synth popem Human League, Depeche Mode či Soft Cell, jejichž úspěch se shodoval s nástupem MTV. Celou knihou se jako červená nit vine téma návaznosti na v té době už utichlou punkovou explozi. Nejde ale ani tak o odkaz punku jako hudebního stylu, mnohem důležitější je jeho nastolený étos, snaha vymanit se přístupem DIY z osidel zavedeného hudebního byznysu - po hudební stránce šlo spíše o to, kam po odeznění punku dál. V jednu chvíli jsme uvažovali o nahrazení výrazu post punk výrazem nová vlna, českým pamětníkům přece jen důvěrněji známým. Je pravda, že u nás se toto sousloví používalo dlouhou dobu a výraz post punk se ujal později než jinde. Záhy jsme však narazili na dvě významná ale. Zaprvé jen těžko můžeme za novou vlnu označit industriální kapely nebo např. Residents či Birthday Party. A co newyorské kapely, které se výrazem no wave proti new wave přímo vyhrazovaly?

Poseidonův odkaz - Alastair Reynolds
Tajemná zpráva od hvězdy vzdálené více než sedmdesát světelných let svede dohromady cesty Gomy a Kanua, potomků slavné rodiny Akinyů, která kdysi pomohla lidem proniknout do kosmických dálav. Soustava Gliese 163, odkud záhadný signál přišel, však skrývá mnohem víc překvapení, než se mohlo na první pohled zdát. Opravdu sem příslušníky lidského rodu přivedla odvěká touha najít odpovědi na velké otázky vesmíru, nebo jsou jenom pěšáky v gigantické šachové partii rozehrané civilizacemi tak starými a mocnými, že by původní obyvatelé planety Země byli pod jejich rozlišovací schopnost - kdyby neměli pár cenných vlastností? Alastair Reynolds ve velkolepém finále uzavírá ságu Poseidonových dětí a znovu dokazuje, že v žánru moderní space opery v novém tisíciletí těžko hledá konkurenci.
