The House with a Clock in Its Walls: Lewis Barnavelt 1 (1848127715)

Kniha - autor John Bellairs, 256 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná YOUCAT: Kurz víry se do větší hloubky věnuje základním tématům katolické víry a morálního učení. Co všechno víme o Bohu? Proč existuje utrpení? Co mají Boží přikázání společného s láskou? A k čemu potřebujeme církev? Autor se snaží vyložit hlavní témata katolické víry a morálky stejně napínavě jako dobrý film. Navazuje přitom těsně na základní publikaci celé této edice – „žlutý“ YOUCAT. YOUCAT: Kurz víry je určen především mladým lidem, a to z věřícího i nevěřícího prostředí. Potřebný impuls k dospělejší víře v ní najdou i další zájemci: konvertité nebo lidé, kteří se připravují na přijetí svátostí církve nebo se po období deziluzí do církve vracejí. Tento kurz víry může absolvovat jednotlivec sám. Lepší ale bude, když se do něj pustí s přáteli, se známými nebo s lidmi z farnosti. Názor si totiž lépe utvoříme při rozhovoru, třeba v menším společenství nebo ve studijní skupině.

The City and Its Uncertain Walls - Haruki Murakami

STEP INTO THE CITYWhen a young man’s girlfriend mysteriously vanishes, he sets his heart on finding the imaginary city where her true self lives. His search will lead him to take a job in a remote library with mysteries of its own. When he finally makes it to the walled city, a shadowless place of horned beasts and willow trees, he finds his beloved working in a different library – a dream library. But she has no memory of their life together in the other world and, as the lines between reality and fantasy start to blur, he must decide what he’s willing to lose. A love story, a quest, an ode to books and to the libraries that house them, The City and Its Uncertain Walls is a parable for these strange times. PRAISE FOR HARUKI MURAKAMI'The world's most popular cult novelist' Guardian 'Wild and thrilling. . . Murakami is a master storyteller and he knows how to keep us hooked' Sunday Times'Totally gripping' Daily Express'It’s safe to say that there’s no one like Murakami' Literary Review'No other author mixes domestic, fantastic and esoteric elements into such weirdly bewitching shades' Financial Times

The Inner Clock: Living in Sync With Our Circadian Rhythms - Lynne Peeplesová

Your body contains a symphony of tiny timepieces, synchronised to the sun and subtle signals in your environment and behaviour. But modern insults like artificial light, contrived time zones and late-night meals can wreak havoc on your internal clocks.Armed with advances in biology and technology, a circadian renaissance is reclaiming those lost rhythms. The Inner Clock explores the emerging science and its transformative applications: How could taking a walk in the morning and going to bed at the same time each night keep your body in sync? Why are some doctors prescribing treatments at specific times of day? And how might a better understanding of our circadian rhythms improve educational outcomes, optimise sports performance, and support the longevity of our planet?Science journalist Lynne Peeples seeks out the scientists, astronauts, athletes and patients at the forefront of a growing movement.Along the way, she sleeps in a Cold War-era bunker, chases the midnight sun, spits into test tubes, and wears high-tech light sensors to decipher what makes our internal clocks tick and how we can reset them for the better.

Around the Globe. Rethinking Oral History with Its Protagonists - Miroslav Vaněk - e-kniha

eBook: Publikace Around the Globe. Rethinking Oral History with Its Protagonists přináší rozhovory s třinácti významnými osobnostmi, které se zabývají orální historií. Profesor Miroslav Vaněk formou interview zaznamenal nejen části životních příběhů těchto osobností, to, jak a proč se začali orální historií zabývat, ale i jejich názory na postavení a význam orální historie v rámci společenských věd. V rozhovorech je reflektováno, jak se vyrovnávají s často kladenou otázkou subjektivity orální historie, zda orální historii považují za obor nebo metodu a jestli je taková klasifikace důležitá. Osobnosti jako David King Dunaway, Ronald Grele, Elizabeth Millwood, Alexander von Plato, Alessandro Portelli, Alistair Thomson, Paul Thompson a další se zároveň zamýšlejí nad budoucností orální historie v době rychle se rozvíjejících technologií i nad možnostmi interpretace orálně historických interview. Publikace je určena všem zájemcům o společenské vědy.

Alice’S Adventures In Wonderland & Through The Looking Glass - Lewis Carroll

With an Introduction and Notes by Michael Irwin, Professor of English Literature, University of Kent at Canterbury This selection of Carroll's works includes Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, both containing the famous illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. No greater books for children have ever been written. The simple language, dreamlike atmosphere, and fantastical characters are as appealing to young readers today as ever they were. Meanwhile, however, these apparently simple stories have become recognised as adult masterpieces, and extraordinary experiments, years ahead of their time, in Modernism and Surrealism. Through wordplay, parody and logical and philosophical puzzles, Carroll engenders a variety of sub-texts, teasing, ominous or melancholy. For all the surface playfulness there is meaning everywhere. The author reveals himself in glimpses.

In the magical world of Wonderland and the back-to-front Looking-Glass kingdom, order is turned upside-down: a baby turns into a pig; time is abandoned at a tea-party; and, a chaotic game of chess makes a 7-year-old a Queen.

The Fall of the House of Byron : Scandal and Seduction in Georgian England - Brand Emily

In the early eighteenth century, Newstead Abbey was among the most admired aristocratic homes in England. It was the abode of William, 4th Baron Byron - a popular amateur composer and artist - and his teenage wife Frances. But by the end of the century, the building had become a crumbling and ill-cared-for ruin. Surrounded by wreckage of his inheritance, the 4th Baron's dissipated son and heir William, 5th Baron Byron - known to history as the 'Wicked Lord' - lay on his deathbed alongside a handful of remaining servants and amidst a thriving population of crickets.This was the home that a small, pudgy boy of ten from Aberdeen - who the world would later come to know as Lord Byron, the Romantic poet, soldier, and adventurer - would inherit in 1798. His family, he would come to learn, had in recent decades become known for almost unfathomable levels of scandal and impropriety, from elopement, murder, and kidnapping to adultery, coercion, and thrilling near-death experiences at sea. Just as it had shocked the society of Georgian London, the outlandish and scandalous story of the Byrons - and the myths that began to rise around it - would his influence his life and poetry for posterity.The Fall of the House of Byron follows the fates of Lord Byron's ancestors over three generations in a drama that begins in rural Nottinghamshire and plays out in the gentlemen's clubs of Georgian London, amid tempests on far-flung seas, and in the glamour of pre-revolutionary France. A compelling story of a prominent and controversial characters, it is a sumptuous family portrait and an electrifying work of social history.

The Inner Clock - Lynne Peeples

How the groundbreaking science of body clocks can help you sleep better, feel happier and improve your overall health''The Inner Clock explores the strange new science of why your circadian rhythms fall out of sync – and how to get them back on track to live a happier, healthier life''JAMES NESTOR, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BREATHYour body contains a symphony of tiny timepieces, synchronised to the sun and subtle signals in your environment and behaviour. But modern insults like artificial light, contrived time zones and late-night meals can wreak havoc on your internal clocks.Armed with advances in biology and technology, a circadian renaissance is reclaiming those lost rhythms. The Inner Clock explores the emerging science and its transformative applications: How could taking a walk in the morning and going to bed at the same time each night keep your body in sync? Why are some doctors prescribing treatments at specific times of day? And how might a better understanding of our circadian rhythms improve educational outcomes, optimise sports performance, and support the longevity of our planet?Science journalist Lynne Peeples seeks out the scientists, astronauts, athletes and patients at the forefront of a growing movement. Along the way, she sleeps in a Cold War-era bunker, chases the midnight sun, spits into test tubes, and wears high-tech light sensors to decipher what makes our internal clocks tick and how we can reset them for the better.

Na 384 stranách fotografie píší příběhy, které umí napsat jenom život sám. Kniha je přehledně rozdělena do kapitol, obsahuje předmluvu autorky i vedoucího oddělení v českém i anglickém jazyce.
