Can We Stop Killing Each Other? - Tafadzwa Nomphanelo Makwabarara, Tania Moore
Can We Stop Killing Each Other? wrestles with the darkest side of humanity. It explores the fundamental question of why humans are led to kill, examining the artworks, films, video games and television programmes that grapple with and manifest themes of death and destruction.Using material culture linked to moments of extreme violence, such as the Holocaust and the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, this publication offers a challenging but eye-opening consideration of some of the most horrifying events in human history as explored through art. Using historical and contemporary art as a lens to explore these themes, the book will include a new interview with Ethiopian artist Tesfaye Urgessa (b.1983), who creates emotive paintings reflecting on the refugee crisis. It will also explore the role of art as sanctuary from violence, through new approaches to the work of Claude Monet (1840–1926)

Henry Moore's Sheep Sketchbook - Kenneth Clark, Henry Moore
In 1972, when the packing and crating for a major exhibition made it impossible for him to work in his sculpture studios, Henry Moore retreated to a small studio that looks out on a sheep meadow. Over the course of several months, as sheep were suckled and sheared, Moore produced this delightful flock of sketches and drawings. Sheep are as much a commonplace of the English countryside as hedgerows, but Moore looked at them afresh. Here are ewes nurturing their lambs, lambs playing in the meadow, and the swollen stateliness of sheep with full coats of wool. Many of the sketches evoke themes that are important in all Moore''s work. The depiction of a ewe and lamb, for instance, suggests the mother-and-child theme often evoked in Moore''s sculpture by a large form sheltering a smaller one. Henry Moore presented the sketchbook to his daughter, Mary. In this facsimile edition, first created under Moore''s personal supervision, Mary''s little lambs will charm anyone who sees these tender, vigorous drawings.

New Collected Poems of Marianne Moore - Marianne Moore
During her lifetime Marianne Moore was that rarest of combinations, a genuine leader in the art of poetry, as well as a bona fide celebrity. She was an instantly recognisable symbol of Brooklyn, New York, appearing on the cover of Life magazine, asked by the Ford Motor Company to christen their new family sedan, and by the New York Yankees to throw the opening pitch of their baseball season. However, because of Moore’s restless, seldom-ceasing, decade-spanning revision of her own poems, creating a ‘stable’ text of her work has posed editors a challenge ever since. Moore tackled the problem herself: Complete Poems (1967) was her own selection, but she favoured the later work, including less than half of her output up to that point. ‘Omissions are not accidents,’ she wrote pointedly in that edition, but for some readers the absence of more than one hundred poems constituted a wilful neglect of her startlingly innovative, highly influential early work, and contributed to Moore’s undervaluing as a ‘modernist’ poet. Marianne Moore scholar Heather Cass White has prepared an edition of poems that, for the first time, presents the full range of Moore’s work in its published order, while honouring the complex textual ...

In this funny, thoughtful book about the modern art of writing, Steven Pinker shows us why we all need a sense of style.More than ever before, the currency of our social and cultural lives is the written word, from Twitter and texting to blogs, e-readers and old-fashioned books. But most style guides fail to prepare people for the challenges of writing in the 21st century, portraying it as a minefield of grievous errors rather than a form of pleasurable mastery. They fail to deal with an inescapable fact about language: it changes over time, adapted by millions of writers and speakers to their needs. Confusing changes in the world with moral decline, every generation believes the kids today are degrading society and taking language with it.

Ve své knize popisují, čím si prošli, co se naučili zvládnout a jak vnímali to, že se jejich rodiče rozešli. „Co mám dělat, když se rodiče hádají?“ „Co to znamená, když se rozvedou?“ „Jak to, že mi nedokážou říci, že se budou rozvádět?“ „Můžu to nějak zastavit?“ Kde budu bydlet, co se mnou bude?“ „Táta si našel přítelkyni. Jak se k ní mám chovat?“ a podobné otázky se honí hlavou většině dětí, jejichž rodiče procházejí rozvodem. Melanie, Annie a Steven na ně dokážou odpovědět, protože to také zažili. Knihu zapsala Jann Blackstone-Ford, mediátorka specializující se na rozvody a konflikty v nevlastních rodinách.

V knize Můj příběh vypráví Gerrard upřímně o své mimořádné kariéře, klíčových zápasech a momentech, na něž nám nabízí vlastní pohled ze hřiště. Ať už je to úžasný obrat Liverpoolu ve finále Ligy mistrů 2005 nebo jeho starty na mistrovstvích světa a Evropy, podává nám vzrušující obraz výher – a proher – před desítkami tisíc bouřících fanoušků. A především je to úžasný a velmi vzácný osobní příběh o tom, jaké to je zůstat věrný jedinému klubu v časech dobrých i zlých. Bez vytáček, odvážně a upřímně se v knize Stevena Gerrarda Můj příběh vypráví o typu hráčů, kteří už vymírají – o muži, jenž drží slovo a jenž je věrný svému klubu i sám sobě.

Môj príbeh - Steven Gerrard
STEVEN GERRARD odohral za reprezentáciu Anglicka tretí najvyšší počet zápasov v jej histórii. Možno ho považovať za najväčšieho a nepochybne najoddanejšieho britského športovca jeho generácie. No kto je v skutočnosti Steven Gerrard? Predovšetkým je to jeden z najpríťažlivejších športových vzorov. Za svoj milovaný Liverpool odohral viac než sedemsto zápasov a ďalších stoštrnásť v drese anglického národného tímu. Ako sa však stal tým, kým bol? Ako sa mu podarilo udržať tak dlho v špičke najťažšej futbalovej ligy sveta? V knihe Môj príbeh hovorí Steven Gerrard otvorene o svojej výnimočnej futbalovej kariére, o pozadí kľúčových zápasov a prináša zaujatý pohľad hráča priamo na ihrisku. Či rozpráva o ohromujúcom triumfe Liverpoolu v Lige majstrov v roku 2005, alebo o svojich výkonoch na mnohých svetových a európskych turnajoch, zakaždým nám sprostredkúva vzrušujúci zážitok z prežívania výhier – i prehier – pred zrakmi desiatok tisícov rozvášnených divákov. Nadovšetko však spoznávame neuveriteľný a zriedkavý osobný príbeh o lojalite k jednému klubu v dobrom i v zlom, nech bola cena akákoľvek. Kniha Môj príbeh je poslednou bodkou odvážneho, statočného, poctivého, no i chybujúceho futbalistu, akí sa už nerodia, je príbehom muža, ktorý si stál za svojím slovom, za svojím klubom a bol vždy sám sebou.

Nový car: Vzestup a vláda Vladimira Putina - Steven Lee Myers
"Zlomový okamžik v životě Vladimira Vladimiroviče Putina nastal na podzim roku 1989 v Drážďanech. Před místní rezidenturou KGB, kde mladý Putin sloužil, se shromáždil dav protestujících, kteří chtěli vzít nenáviděnou organizaci útokem. Bez vojenské podpory nemohl Putin budovu dlouho udržet. Rozhodl se tedy blafovat. Vyšel neozbrojen před bránu a prohlásil: "Moji vojáci mají zbraně. Vydal jsem jim rozkazy: pokud někdo vkročí do objektu, mají zahájit palbu." Zástup protestujících se rozešel. Ve své knize Nový car: Vzestup a vláda Vladimira Putina předkládá americký investigativní novinář Steven Lee Myers barvitý obraz muže, který se z řadového agenta KGB vyšvihl až na vrchol vládní pyramidy - stal se ruským prezidentem. V důkladně rešeršovaných kapitolách rozebírá Putinovu rodinu a dětství, jeho kariérní růst i kontroverzní rozhodnutí v pozici prezidenta. Výsledkem je přesvědčivý a živý psychologický portrét člověka, jehož prvotní motivací je zachování zdání autority za každou cenu, člověka, který nedává najevo slabost, který improvizuje i chladně kalkuluje a u něhož se cílevědomost váže s výkonností a flexibilitou.

This lucid, brilliant book refuses to abandon capitalism to those who believe morality and justice irrelevant to an economic system." -Ezra Klein, founder and editor-at-large, VoxPulitzer Prize-winning economics journalist Steven Pearlstein argues that our thirty year experiment in unfettered markets has undermined core values required to make capitalism and democracy work.With a New Introduction by the AuthorThirty years ago, "greed is good" and "maximizing shareholder value" became the new mantras woven into the fabric of our business culture, economy, and politics. Although, around the world, free market capitalism has lifted more than a billion people from poverty, in the United States most of the benefits of economic growth have been captured by the richest 10%, along with providing justification for squeezing workers, cheating customers, avoiding taxes, and leaving communities in the lurch. As a result, Americans are losing faith that a free market economy is the best system.In Moral Capitalism, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Steven Pearlstein chronicles our descent and challenges the theories being taught in business schools and exercised in boardrooms around the country.

The Singing Neanderthals - Prof Steven Mithen
A fascinating and incisive examination of our language instinct from award-winning science writer Steven Mithen.Along with the concepts of consciousness and intelligence, our capacity for language sits right at the core of what makes us human. But while the evolutionary origins of language have provoked speculation and impassioned debate, music has been neglected if not ignored. Like language it is a universal feature of human culture, one that is a permanent fixture in our daily lives.In THE SINGING NEANDERTHALS, Steven Mithen redresses the balance, drawing on a huge range of sources, from neurological case studies through child psychology and the communication systems of non-human primates to the latest paleoarchaeological evidence.The result is a fascinating and provocative work and a succinct riposte to those, like Steven Pinker, who have dismissed music as a functionless and unimportant evolutionary byproduct.

Killing the SS - Bill O'Reilly, Martin Dugard
The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller (October 2018)Confronting Nazi evil is the subject of the next installment in the mega-bestselling Killing seriesAs the true horrors of the Third Reich began to be exposed immediately after World War II, the Nazi war criminals who committed genocide went on the run. A few were swiftly caught, including the notorious SS leader, Heinrich Himmler. Others, however, evaded capture through a sophisticated Nazi organization designed to hide them. Among those war criminals were Josef Mengele, the “Angel of Death” who performed hideous medical experiments at Auschwitz; Martin Bormann, Hitler’s brutal personal secretary; Klaus Barbie, the cruel "Butcher of Lyon"; and perhaps the most awful Nazi of all: Adolf Eichmann.Killing the SS is the epic saga of the espionage and daring waged by self-styled "Nazi hunters." This determined and disparate group included a French husband and wife team, an American lawyer who served in the army on D-Day, a German prosecutor who had signed an oath to the Nazi Party, Israeli Mossad agents, and a death camp survivor. Over decades, these men and women scoured the world, tracking down the SS fugitives and bringing them to justice, which often meant death.Written in the fast-paced ...

Killing the Dead - John Blair
A riveting history of vampire panics across cultures and down through the millennia—and why killing the dead is better than killing the livingKilling the Dead provides the first in-depth, global account of one of the world’s most widespread yet misunderstood forms of mass hysteria—the vampire epidemic. In a spellbinding narrative, John Blair takes readers from ancient Mesopotamia to present-day Haiti to explore a macabre frontier of life and death where corpses are believed to wander or do harm from the grave, and where the vampire is a physical expression of society’s inexplicable terrors and anxieties. In 1732, the British public opened their morning papers to read of lurid happenings in eastern Europe. Serbian villagers had dug up several corpses and had found them to be undecayed and bloated with blood. Recognizing the marks of vampirism, they mutilated and burned them. Centuries earlier, the English themselves engaged in the same behavior. In fact, vampire epidemics have flared up throughout history—in ancient Assyria, China, and Rome, medieval and early modern Europe, and the Americas. Blair blends the latest findings in archaeology, anthropology, and psychology with vampire lore from literature and popular culture to show how these episodes occur at traumatic moments in ...
