In the late nineteenth century, humans came at long last to a devastating realisation: their rapidly industrialising and globalising societies were driving scores of animal species to extinction. In Beloved Beasts, acclaimed science journalist Michelle Nijhuis traces the history of the movement to protect and conserve other forms of life. From early battles to save charismatic species such as the American bison and bald eagle to today's global effort to defend life on a larger scale, Nijhuis's "spirited and engaging" account documents "the changes of heart that changed history" (Dan Cryer, Boston Globe).With "urgency, passion, and wit" (Michael Berry, Christian Science Monitor), she describes the vital role of scientists and activists such as Aldo Leopold and Rachel Carson, reveals the origins of vital organisations like the Audubon Society and the World Wildlife Fund, explores current efforts to protect species such as the whooping crane and the black rhinoceros and confronts the darker side of modern conservation, long shadowed by racism and colonialism. As the destruction of other species continues and the effects of climate change wreak havoc on our world, Beloved Beasts charts the ways conservation is becoming a movement for the protection of all species including our own.

''Man perishes; his corpse turns to dust; all his relatives pass away. But writings make him remembered''In ancient Egypt, words had magical power. Inscribed on tombs and temple walls, coffins and statues, or inked onto papyri, hieroglyphs give us a unique insight into the life of the Egyptian mind. Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson has freshly translated a rich and diverse range of ancient Egyptian writings into modern English, including tales of shipwreck and wonder, obelisk inscriptions, mortuary spells, funeral hymns, songs, satires and advice on life from a pharaoh to his son. Spanning over two millennia, this is the essential guide to a complex, sophisticated culture.Translated with an Introduction by Toby Wilkinson

One of the most distinguished cultural and intellectual historians of our time, Frank Turner taught a landmark Yale University lecture course on European intellectual history that drew scores of students over many years. His lectures—lucid, accessible, beautifully written, and delivered with a notable lack of jargon—distilled modern European history from the Enlightenment to the dawn of the twentieth century and conveyed the turbulence of a rapidly changing era in European history through its ideas and leading figures.  Richard A. Lofthouse, one of Turner’s former students, has now edited the lectures into a single volume that outlines the thoughts of a great historian on the forging of modern European ideas. Moreover, it offers a fine example of how intellectual history should be taught: rooted firmly in historical and biographical evidence.

In fact, Jordan Ellenberg shows us, maths touches on everything we do, and a little mathematical knowledge reveals the hidden structures that lie beneath the world''s messy and chaotic surface. In How Not to be Wrong, Ellenberg explores the mathematician''s method of analyzing life, from the everyday to the cosmic, showing us which numbers to defend, which ones to ignore, and when to change the equation entirely. Along the way, he explains calculus in a single page, describes Gödel''s theorem using only one-syllable words, and reveals how early you actually need to get to the airport.

The Road Back to God: A Modern Man’s Journey from Darkness to LightIn an age of unprecedented religious interest among men, Joe Barnard provides a compelling roadmap for those curious about Christianity but unsure where to begin. This thoughtful guide meets men where they are—often trapped in materialistic thinking and spiritual numbness—and leads them step–by–step toward authentic faith. Unlike typical religious texts, The Road Back to God doesn’t just provide information; it offers transformation. Barnard masterfully addresses the unique challenges modern men face, from intellectual skepticism to moral uncertainty, while guiding readers through ten crucial milestones on the path to faith. Through clear prose and relatable examples, he helps men navigate questions of meaning, purpose, and spiritual truth. Whether you’re a skeptic intrigued by Christianity’s resurgence, a seeker looking for answers, or someone simply dissatisfied with modern materialism, this book offers a fresh perspective on ancient wisdom. Barnard doesn’t shy away from difficult topics like sin, holiness, and the cross, but presents them in ways that resonate with contemporary minds. This is more than a book about religion—it’s a guide to rediscovering what it means to be fully human in a fragmented world.

This book takes the everyday and transforms it into something fine and precious and enduring. With an unsparing attention, Emma Neale creates shape-shifting poems that confound prejudices and subvert expectations. Displaying verve and confidence, her poetry is filled with musicality and dynamic language, always observant to the world and its details. The striking imagery and emotional range of her work never veer into sentimentality. These poems engage with the full spectrum of human emotion and experience, the hauntings of history, the cold hand of social inequality, and the long contrail of intimate cruelties. They challenge the open and latent violence of contemporary life, from refugee crises to rape, poverty and mental illness to climate change, while revealing the extraordinary in the everyday, where a childs-eye view of the world can witness the wonder of the new or the shadow of darkness. Whimiscal typographical experiments and prose poems sit next to reimagined fables (the Big Bad Wolf repurposed as inner demon), deliciously light-handed satire, and quietly powerful insights into the contemporary political terrain. To the Occupant is an innovative and astounding collection from one of New Zealands leading writers of her generation.

Anyone who observes fruit trees may wonder how or why they behave in specific ways. Some trees grow upright while others have a spreading habit. Some produce many flowers and small immature fruit only to drop most of the fruit later on; others grow more strongly on their sunny side than their shady side. It is common to ascribe such behavior to the tree as a whole and state that trees preferentially "allocate" resources to specific organs. However, this is the wrong approach to understanding tree functioning and behavior. Trees are not in control of what they do. What trees do and how they function is shaped by the individual organs that make up the tree, not by the tree as a whole. The genetic code only indirectly determines the habit, structure and behavior of a tree by defining the behavioral and functional limits of the component organs, tissues and cells. Unlike animals that have a mechanism for collective control of the whole organism - a central nervous system - trees (and plants in general) are more appropriately considered as collections of semi-autonomous organs. These organs are dependent on one another for resources, such as water, energy and nutrients, but ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Who would have thought that one of the most popular childhood toys held so many of life''s answers. In The Little Red Wagon, prolific business leader and public servant Ron Simmons invites you to leave ordinary behind and glide into the richly meaningful life you were intended to live.

How have the modern world, technology and our addiction to information changed who we are? What effect does it have on our relationships, minds and bodies? What can the simple act of sitting still teach us about ourselves? When Tim Parks fails to find a cause for his crippling chronic pain, he turns to meditation. This is, however, not your average self-help book or conversion story; instead, it is a refreshingly honest and profoundly moving introspection of one writer and his quest to overcome the inner battle between mind and body. A revelatory read with delightful cultural and literary references, Teach us to Sit Still by Booker-shortlisted author Tim Parks examines how the philosophy of ''sit still, relax and stop worrying'' can be profoundly life-altering.‘Teach us to Sit Still made me laugh; it made me cry; and it made me seriously think about taking up Vispassana meditation’ The Times

Kniha - autor Michal Cihlář; Marcel Fišer; Pavel Kosatík, 136 stran, česky, polotuhá flexo Grafik Michal Cihlář (1960) je považován za průkopnickou osobnost českého moderního linorytu. Touto grafickou technikou se shodou šťastných náhod začal zabývat roku 1980 a brzy si uvědomil, že linoryt je navzdory své primitivní technologii skutečným rájem neomezených tvůrčích možností. Koncem 80. let už měl Cihlář brilantně vypracované vlastní postupy pro mnohobarevné soutisky z postupně odrývané linorytové matrice. Některé grafické listy jsou více než dvaceti barevné, na výstavě však najdete i soutisk ze 42 barev. Grafiky dodnes tiskne výhradně ručně, bez tiskařského stroje, většinou jen v nákladu kolem sedmi exemplářů. V polovině 90. let začíná od barevných soutisků přecházet k linorytům kolorovaným a své černobílé linoryty pečlivě vybarvuje běžně dostupnými anilinkami. To mu umožnilo dostat se přes své rané pop-artové období až na hranici fotorealismu. Typické je...
