The Curious Columns of Adrian Chiles - Adrian Chiles
Adrian Chiles''s weekly column for the Guardian has gained a cult following for his unique insights into everything from the present tense in history podcasts to his favourite spoon, or his legendary at-home urinal. As Gawker put it, ''Adrian Chiles never misses.'' And his targets are the stuff of life: the everyday things we all need to stop and think about a little more.The Curious Columns of Adrian Chiles finds Britain''s much-loved broadcaster musing on the sacred and the profane, the whimsical and the bizarre, offering his idiosyncratic take on self-checkouts, speeding tickets and the correct duration of a hug, falling into a bed of wild garlic, and discovering he has a naked doppelgänger on OnlyFans. In this brilliant bumper collection, he takes us on a bright, bemused tour of British life, delivering offbeat truths and a comforting blast of humour and warmth for baffling times.I thought it was weird to have a favourite spoon. Then I realised I wasn''t alone...At Easter I had a fall. The wild garlic smelled lovely, but I didn''t want to die thereI recently saw something in a petrol station toilet southbound on the M1 that I can never unsee

Odhaľovanie trestných činov - Adrián Vaško, Jozef Stieranka
Publikácia sa zaoberá predovšetkým problematikou odhaľovania trestných činov. Uvedená časť boja s kriminalitou nie je v súčasnosti komplexne skúmaná a rozpracovaná. Aktuálne trendy vo vývoji kriminality, najmä organizovanej a s medzinárodným prvkom, potvrdzujú, že doterajšie prístupy už nie sú dostatočné na zabezpečenie jej kontroly. Je potrebné klásť väčší dôraz na činnosť bezpečnostných zložiek zameranú na predchádzanie a zamedzovanie trestnej činnosti. Autori sa pokúsili priblížiť odhaľovanie trestných činov, cez prizmu získavania, spracovávania a využívania predovšetkým indikátorov trestnej činnosti, s prepojením na trestné konanie. Zameriavajú sa na prácu s informáciami v štádiu pred trestným konaním, ako aj v jeho rámci, osobitne v procese dokazovania. V monografii približujú nové stratégie a prístupy odhaľovania trestných činov s využitím operatívno-pátracej činnosti a spravodajskej činnosti. Odhaľovanie trestných činov chápu ako činnosti, ktoré sú vykonávané s cieľom zistenia samotnej existencie skutku, ktorý je možné kvalifikovať ako trestný čin a ktorý nebol oznámený príslušným orgánom a nie je ani inak evidovaný v príslušných štatistikách. V praxi sa v súčasnosti pozornosť dominantne zameriava na objasňovanie trestných činov, čo znamená reakciu na už spáchané a zistené protizákonné aktivity. Bezpečnostné zložky musia aktívnejšie pôsobiť už v „predpolí zločinu“ a teda získavať, analyzovať a vyhodnocovať informácie o pripravovanej trestnej činnosti. Takýto prístup je dôležitý aj pre neskoršie štádium objasňovania trestnej činnosti, nakoľko umožňuje získať a zadokumentovať informácie, ktoré môžu byť významné v trestnom konaní. Niektoré informácie získané v rámci odhaľovania trestnej činnosti môžu byť, pri dodržaní zákonom určených podmienok, využiteľné aj v procese dokazovania a môžu nadobudnúť hodnotu dôkazu. Vedecká monografia je určená najmä pre odbornú verejnosť. Svoje nezastupiteľné miesto si nájde aj pri výučbe na vysokých školách s právnym a bezpečnostným zameraním a taktiež môže prispieť k rozvoju vedných odborov „Právo“ a „Bezpečnostné vedy“.

Judikatúra vo veciach práv duševného vlastníctva - Adrián Fedor
Prvá a jedinečná publikácia, ktorá sa venuje judikatúre najvyšších súdnych autorít Slovenskej republiky z oblasti práv duševného vlastníctva. Právo duševného vlastníctva je dynamicky sa rozvíjajúcim právnym odvetvím, ktorého potreba aplikácie vzrastá ruke v ruke spoločne s fenoménom umelej inteligencie a informačných technológií. Komplexné zhrnutie judikatúry na túto tému dosiaľ na Slovensku chýbalo. Táto kniha obsahuje 127 publikovaných a nepublikovaných rozhodnutí Najvyššieho súdu Slovenskej republiky a Ústavného súdu Slovenskej republiky, vydaných od roku 1999 do roku 2023 z oblasti priemyselných práv na výsledky tvorivej duševnej činnosti (patentové právo, právo úžitkových vzorov, dizajnové právo a právo nových odrôd rastlín), priemyselných práv na označenie (právo ochranných známok a právo obchodných mien), práv obdobných priemyselným právam (zlepšovateľské právo, právo know-how, právo doménových mien a právna ochrana názvu a dobrej povesti právnickej osoby) a práv súvisiacich s priemyselnými právami (právo obchodného tajomstva a právo nekalej súťaže). Autor z niektorých rozhodnutí vybral právne najzaujímavejšie state z ich odôvodnení, ktoré majú zovšeobecňujúcu povahu a ktoré nie sú v tradičnej právnickej literatúre bežne dostupné. Publikácia je systematicky členená a využiteľná pre široké spektrum čitateľov.

The Curious Vanishing of Beatrice Willoughby - G. Z. Schmidt
The Amadeuses were always considered somewhat strange. Even before the incident. When six-year-old Beatrice Willoughby vanished at the Amadeuses' annual All Hallows Eve party, people in the tiny mountain town of Nevermore were quick to whisper: They were always odd. Their house is full of dark magic. And when Mort Amadeus was pegged for the crime, the Amadeuses, once the center of society, retreated. They closed their doors, disappeared from life. People almost forgot. Until thirteen years later, when six envelopes land at the doorstep of six households in town: We cordially invite you to a celebration on the 31st of October this Saturday evening at the Amadeus household. So begins the mystery of who was really responsible for the missing girl thirteen years ago. Was it Duchess von Pelt, whose face no one has ever seen? Mrs. Raven, the keeper of the local inn? Wormwood, the Amadeuses' mysterious caretaker? Dr. Foozle, the town pharmacist? Count Baines, who seems to know when unlucky things are about to happen? Judge Ophelius, who presided over Beatrice's case originally? Mr. and Mrs. H, a couple who no one can ever quite remember? Or somehow, might precocious, eleven-year-old Dewey and his storytelling dad, Chaucer, be somehow mixed up in all this? The guests must work together to identify the guilty party among them over the course of the evening--but beware the ticking clock, because at midnight, everything is going to change! Told from different perspectives, this is a sly, darkly funny mystery. Filled with strange characters and set in a mansion deep, deep in the woods. G. Z. Schmidt has crafted an unforgettable puzzle, perfect for reading on a dark autumn night.

A Place For Everything: The Curious History of Alphabetical Order - Flanders
'Marvellous . . . I read it with astonished delight . . . It is equally scholarly and entertaining.' –Jan Morris 'Quirky and compelling.' –The Times One we've learned it as children few of us think much of the alphabet and its familiar sing-song order. And yet the order if the alphabet, that simple knowledge that we take for granted, plays a major role in our adult lives. From the school register to the telephone book, from dictionaries and encyclopaedias to library shelves, our lives are ordered from A to Z. Long before Google searches, this magical system of organisation gave us the ability to sift through centuries of thought, knowledge and literature, allowing us to sort, to file, and to find the information we have, and to locate the information we need. In A Place for Everything, acclaimed historian Judith Flanders draws our attention to both the neglected ubiquity of the alphabet and the long, complex history of its rise to prominence. For, while the order of the alphabet itself became fixed very soon after letters were first invented, their ability to sort and store and organize proved far less obvious. To many of our forebears, the idea of of organising things by the random chance of the alphabet rather than by established systems of hierarchy or typology lay somewhere between unthinkable and disrespectful. A Place for Everything fascinatingly lays out the gradual triumph of alphabetical order, from its possible earliest days as a sorting tool in the Great Library of Alexandria in the third century BCE, to its current decline in prominence in our digital age of Wikipedia and Google. Along the way, the reader is enlightened and entertained with a wonderful cast of unknown facts, characters and stories from the great collector Robert Cotton, who denominated his manuscripts with the names of the busts of the Roman emperors surmounting his book cases, to the unassuming sixteenth- century London bookseller who ushered in a revolution by listing his authors by 'sirname' first.

The Centrist Dad Handbook - Jason Hazeley, Nico Tatarowicz
A funny and gentle deep dive into the most unbearably reasonable men in the UK – your perfect Christmas present for any dad, husband, brother or uncle who owns more gilets than shoes, buys vinyl (but doesn’t always remove the cellophane), puffs on a CBD vape and claims he has a brick from the Haçienda in his outdoor barbecue. (Yeah. Right.) Packed full of quizzes, lifehacks and top 10 lists, The Centrist Dad Handbook will answer questions like:Why exactly is the Centrist Dad’s taste in music stuck in the Blair era?Why does he carry a folded bicycle wherever he goes?Why does he call it his ‘office’ when it’s clearly a shepherd’s hut?Would he consider bringing back hanging if the rope was made of sustainably-sourced hemp? The guide will also examine gnarlier issues like music festivals, e-scooters and whether it is OK to still listen to The Smiths if you do so whilst wearing noise-cancelling headphones and sorting the recycling. Plus food and drink ideas (the most centrist food is, obviously, half-and-half sweet-and-salty popcorn) and the thing no guide to Centrist Dads would be complete without: Adrian Chiles. Written by Jason Hazeley (who co-authored the bestselling phenomenon The Ladybird Books for Grown-Ups series and anything with the word Cunk in the title) and Nico Tatarowicz (The Armstrong & Miller Show, Murder In Successville, Spitting Image), this is The Official Sloane Ranger Handbook for the 21st century. A humour book must for that breed of men who miss Top Gear even though they identify as cyclists.

A role model for the world, a powerful political player, a traditional yet modern woman - the position of first lady of the United States is many-faceted, complex and beyond high profile.Amy Russo explores how the social platforms these women established - from Mary Todd Lincoln's work for slaves and soldiers after the Civil War to Michelle Obama's fight for girls' education - have not only made the role iconic but also shaped America.
