The Man Without Qualities - Robert Musil

With an introduction by Jonathan Lethem. It is 1913, and Viennese high society is determined to find an appropriate way of celebrating the seventieth jubilee of the accession of Emperor Franz Josef. But as the aristocracy tries to salvage something illustrious out of the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the ordinary Viennese world is beginning to show signs of more serious rebellion. Caught in the middle of this social labyrinth is Ulrich: youngish, rich, an ex-soldier, seducer and scientist. Unable to deceive himself that the jumble of attributes and values that his world has bestowed on him amounts to anything so innate as a 'character', he is effectively a man 'without qualities', a brilliant, detached observer of the spinning, racing society around him. Part satire, part visionary epic, part intellectual tour de force, The Man Without Qualities by Robert Musil is a work of immeasurable importance.

Tri ženy - Robert Musil

Slávne novely legendárneho rakúskeho prozaika. Kniha Tri ženy je zbierka noviel, v ktorých sa autor sústreďuje na zobrazenie vzťahu muža a ženy, na ich vzájomný citový život i na individuálny prístup každého z partnerov. Hoci milenci prežívajú spoločné chvíle, sú si neprekonateľne cudzí a práve toto napätie využíva autor na psychologické priblíženie ich konania. Hrdinovia príbehov Roberta Musila podstupujú morálnu skúšku, ktorá hlboko zasiahne do ich životov. „Z každej novely sa mohol stať román. Ak sa nestal, závisí to od postoja spisovateľa k svojmu nápadu. Novela je zárodok románu, vyvinie sa z neho plod a potom sa absorbuje."Robert Musil

Zmatky chovance Törlesse - Robert Musil

Zmatky chovance Törlesse jsou románovou prvotinou význačného rakouského spisovatele, literárním plodem jeho pobytu ve vojenské škole v Eisenstadtu a v Hranicích na Moravě. Musil ji napsal, když mu bylo pouhých dvaadvacet let, a poprvé vyšla v roce 1906, přesto jde o dílo neobyčejně zralé, které dodnes uchvacuje nové generace čtenářů subtilní, citlivou a pronikavě přesnou studií duševního i tělesného zrání mladičkého chovance internátní vojenské školy. Na pozadí hrdinova pubertálního procitání autor zároveň vykresluje obraz fungování lidského společenství uvnitř uzavřeného světa, jemuž vládne duch soupeření a konfrontace, a zachycuje mechanismy soužití mezi chovanci, vztahy mezi jedincem a masou, mezi obětí a jejími trýzniteli, mezi diktátory a jejich přisluhovači i spojenci. Prvotina Roberta Musila v novém překladu Radovana Charváta.

The Fourth Man - Robert Baer

For the first time ever, New York Times bestselling author and former CIA operative Robert Baer tells the explosive story of how insiders believe a KGB mole rose to the highest ranks of the CIA. In the aftermath of the Cold War, US intelligence caught three high-profile Russian spies. However, these arrests left major questions unanswered, and rumours have long swirled of another mole, often referred to as the Fourth Man. Three pioneering female veterans of counterintelligence were tasked with unearthing him. With steadfast determination and expertise, they came to a shocking conclusion, one which had, and continues to harbour, dramatic consequences for American security. In this gripping insider account, Baer tells a thrilling story of Russian espionage and American intelligence. With profound implications for the rise of Vladimir Putin and international relations with Russia, The Fourth Man is a real-life spy thriller with echoes of John Le Carre.

Determined: The Science of Life Without Free Will - Robert M. Sapolsky

What if free will is an illusion? As Robert Sapolsky shows in this masterful account of the science of human behaviour, everything we think and do is caused by the luck of our biology and the influence of our environment, and ultimately both are beyond our control. In a world without free will, we must completely rethink what we mean by choice, responsibility, morality and justice.Sapolsky’s extraordinary book does exactly this, guiding us toward a profoundly fairer, more humane way of living together.

Jedinečnost Musilova chápání literatury tu je promyšlena v celém svém dosahu a Musil-spisovatel je představen ve své autentické podobě: jako neteologický, zcela nitrosvětský mystik, jako osamělý průzkumník možnosti mezilidských pout, jako autor a konstruktér krajně precizních popisů nevyslovitelna.

The Bladderstones: Without Cover (CD)

Pětiletí existence slavící kapela The Bladderstones, která je už pevnou součástí tuzemské klubové scény a sama se charakterizuje jako blues/crossover, vydává po debutu ("Bored of Love", 2014) druhé autorské album "Without Cover". A jde o ještě pestřejší kolekci nahrávek, protože základní hudební hmotu tentokrát obohacují prvky fusion, alternativního metalu i popu. Trio se opírá o zkušenosti dlouholetého člena skupiny Jablkoň, baskytaristy a v The Bladderstones hlavního vokalisty Johnnyho Judla, o hru vynikajícího moderního kytaristy Tomáše Frolíka a o energii nového bubeníka Michaela Noska, patřícího k instrumentální špičce domácího rocku i jazzu. Na albu se poprvé ocitá v roli sólového zpěváka i Frolík ("For Once"), zatímco Judl překvapí češtinou ve vlastním textu songu "Životní role". Závěrečnou podmanivou instrumentálku "Pro Petra" skupina věnovala zesnulému příteli a známému výrobci a opraváři kytar Petru Jurkovičovi. Ve "Way Too Much of Love" pak jde o lehké šťouchnutí do zatuchlého rybníčku českého blues. Důležitým elementem při vzniku CD byl i hudební režisér a zvukový mistr Ondřej Ježek, podepsaný i pod konečným mixem ze svého studia Jámor, kam The Bladderstones přišli pomoci i hosté, David Babka, specialista na klouzavou steel kytaru, a Ondřej Kříž na elektrické piano.

The Man in the Moon - Andrew Barrow

Are all aspiring stand-up comics as tragic as Baby Reindeer? If William is anything to go by, the answer is possibly ‘yes’. Nostalgic, razor-sharp and deliciously peculiar, this is a weird but wonderful comedy of manners by the award-winning author of The Tap Dancer.William is a lonely young man on the loose in the late 1960s. A disastrous appearance as a stand-up comic in a pub called The Man In the Moon is only the start of his adventures, in which he consorts with theatrical types, frenzied advertising men and accident-prone lodgers.William’s exploits lead him eventually to the consulting rooms of a Harley Street psychiatrist, where his delusions that he is a comic genius can finally be laid bare.Andrew Barrow’s second – and so far last – novel, first published in 1996, is a hilariously bittersweet comedy that follows in the footsteps of last year’s sensational reissue of The Tap Dancer, which drew praise from Alan Bennett (‘my favourite novel’), Craig Brown (‘sublime comedy’) and India Knight (‘hilariously funny’).

Saving the Planet Without the Bullsh*t - Assaad Razzouk

Have you heard that you should plant trees to save the planet? Or buy carbon offsets when you fly? Or recycle plastic? Go vegan? Or not have children? What if all these actions were a distraction, no matter how well-intentioned?In this provocative manifesto, Assaad Razzouk shows that for too long our ideas about what's best for the environment have been unfocused and distracted, trying to go in too many directions and concentrating on individual behaviour. While some of these things can be useful, they are dwarfed by one big thing that simply has to happen very soon if we're to avoid major environmental breakdown: curtailing the activities of the fossil fuel industry.Full of counter-intuitive statistics and positive suggestions for individual and collective action, this ingenious book will change how you view the climate crisis.

The Man - Bram Stoker - e-kniha

eBook: 'The Man' is a gothic novel combining elements of horror and romance written by Bram Stoker, the author of the acclaimed 'Dracula' made famous by the 1931 movie adaption starring Bela Lugosi. Other masters of gothic fiction include Edgar Allan Poe and H.G. Wells. 'The Man' follows the story of Stephen, a lovely young woman and Harold, who is slowly approaching manhood. This story focuses on the immense social and physical proprieties required of the pre-industrial era in England and the struggles facing Stephen and Harold in overcoming them. Stephen is a remarkable character, that has an enlightened feminist perspective ahead of her time, liberating her from the confined conventions regarding a women's role in society. Stoker's descriptive powers seen in the renowned 'Dracula' are also vividly demonstrated in 'The Man' .A sheer pleasure to read, brimming with beautiful prose and an enchanting storyline. 'The Man' is highly recommended for readers who also enjoy classic english literature focusing on the strength of women in the face of adversity as vibrantly depicted in the works of Jane Austen and George Eliot. -

Signing with Oakland, he said goodbye to his small home town and left for California to pursue his dreams of glory.Six years later he was back, his dreams broken by a bad arm and bad habits - drinking, drugs and women. He began to show signs of mental illness. Unable to keep a job, he moved in with his mother and slept 20 hours a day on her sofa.In 1982, a 21 year-old cocktail waitress, Debra Sue Carter, was raped and murdered, and for five years the crime went unsolved. Finally, desperate for someone to blame, police came to suspect Ron Williamson and his friend Dennis Fritz. The two were finally arrested in 1987 and charged with murder.With no physical evidence, the prosecution's case was built on junk science and the testimony of jailhouse snitches and convicts. Dennis Fritz was found guilty and given a life sentence.Ron Williamson was sent to Death Row.But as Grisham methodically lays out, there was no case against him. Ron Williamson was wrongly condemned to die. If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you.__________________In 2018, THE INNOCENT MAN was adapted by Netflix into a gripping six-part true crime series.

The Man in the High Castle - Philip K. Dick

A dazzling speculative novel of 'counterfactual history' from one of America's most highly-regarded science fiction authors, Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle includes an introduction by Eric Brown in Penguin Modern Classics. Philip K. Dick's acclaimed cult novel gives us a horrifying glimpse of an alternative world - one where the Allies have lost the Second World War. In this nightmare dystopia the Nazis have taken over New York, the Japanese control California and the African continent is virtually wiped out. In a neutral buffer zone in America that divides the world's new rival superpowers, lives the author of an underground bestseller. His book offers a new vision of reality - an alternative theory of world history in which the Axis powers were defeated - giving hope to the disenchanted. Does 'reality' lie with him, or is his world just one among many others? Philip Kindred Dick (1928-82) was born in Chicago in 1928. His career as a science fiction writer comprised an early burst of short stories followed by a stream of novels, typically character studies incorporating androids, drugs, and hallucinations. His best works are generally agreed to be The Man in the High Castle and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, the inspiration for the movie Blade Runner.

The Will of the Many - James Islington

At the elite Catenan Academy, where students are prepared as the future leaders of the Hierarchy empire, the curriculum reveals a layered set of mysteries which turn murderous in this new fantasy by bestselling author of The Licanius Trilogy, James Islington. Vis, the adopted son of Magnus Quintus Ulcisor, a prominent senator within the Hierarchy, is trained to enter the famed Catenan Academy to help Ulciscor learn what the hidden agenda is of the remote island academy. Secretly, he also wants Vis to discover what happed to his brother who died at the academy.He’s sure the current Principalis of the academy, Quintus Veridius Julii, a political rival, knows much more than he’s revealing. The Academy’s vigorous syllabus is a challenge Vis is ably suited to meet, but it is the training in the use of Will, a practice that Vis finds abhorrent, that he must learn in order to excel at the Academy. Will—a concept that encompasses their energy, drive, focus, initiative, ambition, and vitality—can be voluntarily “ceded” to someone else.A single recipient can accept ceded Will from multiple people, growing in power towards superhuman levels. Within the hierarchy your level of Will, or legal rank, determines how you live or die. And there are those who are determined to destroy this hierarchal system, as well as those in the Academy who use it to gain dominance in internationally bestselling author James Islington’s wonderfully crafted new epic fantasy series.

Ultrasound examination of the lower limbs - Dalibor Musil, et al. - e-kniha

eBook: This monograph focuses on the clinical use of ultrasound in phlebology. The introduction covers the technical aspects from basic physical principles of the ultrasound signal formation and processing, principles of rheology and the Doppler effect through various ultrasound modalities to practical instructions for setting the ultrasound machine for examination of various areas of the venous system. The next part provides detailed description of the venous anatomy of the lower extremities as a reliable guide for navigating the sometimes variable vein morphology. The core of the book is a description of the principal nosological units in phlebology and methods for their sonographic diagnosis. In the first place is chronic venous disease, along with superficial and deep vein thrombosis, the post-thrombotic syndrome, congenital vascular malformations and variations, and venous aneurysms. The core of the book is the description of the main nosological entities in physiology and the methods for sonographic diagnostics.An increasingly important overlap of ultrasonography from diagnostics to therapy is outlined in chapters on the use of sonography in local venous thrombolysis and surgical treatment of chronic venous disease. The book concludes with several case reports, a practical and a synthesis of all the other chapters, a clinical outllook and a message for everyday practice. Essentially, they are an extract of why the book was created. Increasingly important is the extension of ultrasound diagnostics into therapy, which is outlined in the chapters on the use of sonography for local venous thrombolysis and surgical treatment of chronic venous diseases.

Anansi's Gold: The man who swindled the world - Yeebo Yepoka

The astounding, never-before-told story of how an ingenious Ghanaian con artist ran one of the 20th century’s longest and most audacious frauds. When Ghana declared independence from Britain in 1957, it immediately became a target for opportunists determined to lay hold of whatever assets colonialism hadn’t already stripped. The military ousted the new nation’s first president, Kwame Nkrumah, then falsely accused him of stealing the country’s gold and hiding it overseas.Into this story stepped one of history’s most charismatic scammers, John Ackah Blay-Miezah – a con man to rival the trickster god Anansi. Born into poverty, Blay-Miezah declared himself the custodian of an alleged Nkrumah trust fund worth billions. You, too, could claim a piece, if only you would help him rescue it – with a small investment.Over the 1970s and ’80s, he grew his scam to epic proportions, amassing hundreds of millions of pounds from thousands of marks all over the world. He baffled Henry Kissinger, scandalised Shirley Temple-Black, and had Nixon’s former attorney-general at his beck and call. Many tried to stop him, but Blay-Miezah continued to live in luxury, protected by ex-SAS soldiers while he deceived lawyers, businessmen and investigators around the globe.In Anansi’s Gold, Yepoka Yeebo chases the ever-wilder trail of Blay-Miezah – and unfolds a riveting account of Cold War entanglements and African dreams – revealing the untold story of the grifter who beat the West at its own thieving game.
