A race against time ensues because, when revealed, that information threatens to tear apart the corridors of power at the very highest level.The case proves to be life-changing for both Mars and Decker in ways that neither could ever have imagined

A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough’s seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet. Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet.In The Living Planet, David Attenborough’s searching eye, unfailing curiosity and infectious enthusiasm explain and illuminate the intricate lives of the these colonies, from the lonely heights of the Himalayas to the wild creatures that have established themselves in the most recent of environments, the city. By the end of this book it is difficult to say which is the more astonishing – the ingenuity with which individual species contrive a living, or the complexity of their interdependence on each other and on the habitations provided by our planet.In this new edition, the author, with the help of zoologist Matthew Cobb, has added all the most up-to-date discoveries of ecology and biology, as well as a full-colour 64-page photography section. He also addresses the urgent issues facing our living planet: climate change, pollution and mass extinction of species.

The sixth in the Millennium series featuring THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO "What will you do now?" "I shall be the hunter and not the hunted" The girl with the dragon tattoo is finally ready to confront her nemesis, the only woman who is evidently and in many ways her match. Salander will not wait to be hunted. When she strikes it will be a double blow: vengeance for recent atrocities, and the settling of lifelong scores. For months now Salander has been closing in on her target. She has moved from Stockholm, her hair is newly styled, her piercings are gone. She could pass for any other businesswoman. But not all businesswomen have a Beretta Cheetah beneath their jacket. They do not wield the lethal power of a hacker's genius. They do not carry scars and tattoos to remind them that they have survived the unsurvivable. The new episode in David Lagercrantz's acclaimed, internationally bestselling continuation of Stieg Larsson's Dragon Tattoo series is a thrilling ride that scales the heights of Everest and plunges the depths of Russian troll factories. It begins with the discovery of Mikael Blomkvist's number at Millennium magazine in the pocket of an unidentified homeless man who died with the name of a government minister on his lips. Blomkvist, at extreme risk to himself, tracks down his old friend and will protect her as far as he can. But he is powerless to crush her enemies on his own. And for Lisbeth Salander, the personal is always political - and deadly.

THIS CHRISTMAS, A KILLER TAKES FAMILY GAMES TO A MURDEROUS NEW LEVEL. On 19th of December, renowned puzzle setter, loner and Christmas sceptic Edie O’Sullivan finds a hand-delivered present on her doorstep. Unwrapping it, she finds a jigsaw box and, inside, six jigsaw pieces. When fitted together, the pieces show part of a crime scene – blood-spattered black and white tiles and part of an outlined body. Included in the parcel is a message: ‘Four, maybe more, people will be dead by midnight on Christmas Eve, unless you can put all the pieces together and stop me.’ It’s signed, Rest In Pieces. Edie contacts her nephew, DI Sean Brand-O’Sullivan, and together they work to solve the clues. But when a man is found near death with a jigsaw piece in his hand, Sean fears that Edie might be in danger and shuts her out of the investigation. As the body count rises, however, Edie knows that only she has the knowledge to put together the killer’s murderous puzzle. Only by fitting all the pieces together will Edie be able to stop a killer – and finally lay her past to rest.Praise for Alexandra Benedict’s Christmas mysteries: 'The perfect gift for quizzers and mystery addicts . . .'

Vítek nemá úplně dobré vztahy se svým otcem. Dobře ale ví, jak by zareagovaly úřady, kdyby se o něj alespoň trochu nestaral. Vztah plný nudy a prázdna prolomí nezvyklý rodinný výměnný obchod – syn si může půjčovat otcovy staré vůdcovské uniformy pro své večerní hudební show, ale za každou zápůjčku si musí poslechnout či přečíst kus pohnuté historie první půle 21. století, která rozhodně neodpovídá oficiálnímu dějepisu. Známé revoluční letopočty se míhají před očima, ale v úplně jiných souvislostech, než jaké se memorují ve školách. Vítek začíná pochybovat o dosud bezrozporné státní ideologii pomoci potřebným. Naivně si myslí, že se střetu se systémem dokáže vyhýbat a cíleně volí životní sešup. Pro koho a čím by mohl být vůbec ještě podstatný? Jak moc se plete…

Berlin, early 1948. The city, still occupied by the four Allied powers, still largely in ruins, has become the cockpit of a new Cold War, and as spring unfolds its German inhabitants live in fear of the Soviets enforcing a Western withdrawal. Here, as elsewhere in Europe, the legacies of the War have become entangled in the new Soviet-American conflict, creating a world of bizarre and fleeting loyalties, a paradise for spies. John Russell works for both Stalin's NKVD and the newly created CIA. He does as little for either as he can safely get away with, and between the tawdry tasks they set him--assessing dubious defectors in Trieste, running a spy ring in a Berlin VD clinic, rescuing ex-Nazis who might prove useful from Czechoslovakia--he seeks a way to cut himself loose. His partner Effi Koenen has an easier time, starring in a popular radio series and looking after their adopted daughter Rosa, until a woman she helped save in the War turns up on her doorstep, and admits to a child she left behind all those years before, a child now trapped behind the new Iron Curtain.

V polovině 60. let odchází Living Theatre do Evropy, aby uskutečnil rozchod s americkou kulturou a šířil myšlenku anarchistické revoluce. Během pobytu v Evropě vytvoří soubor několik inscenací, které zobrazí téma revoluce pomocí řady nových scénických postupů. Skutečný příspěvek k anarchistické revoluci pak zinscenuje v létě revolučního roku 1968 na Avignonském festivalu, kde uvede premiéru inscenace Paradise NOW a v programu představí i dva starší projekty Mysteries and Smaller Pieces a Antigone. Každá z inscenací obsahuje jiný princip proměny vnímání, který má vést diváky k novému, revolučnímu způsobu jednání. Inscenace Mysteries and Smaller Pieces směřuje pozornost účastníků k aktivaci smyslů a k prohloubení dojmu slyšení skrze poslouchání, vidění skrze dívání se, cítění prostřednictvím tělesného vnímání; inscenace Antigone zobrazuje pohyb a jeho absenci, která se stává zdrojem bytí, života a smyslu; inscenace Paradise NOW otevírá dveře zakoušení přítomného času, který vstupuje do reality scénického díla a naplňuje ji životem. Prostřednictvím nových scénických forem Living Theatre usiluje objevit nové formy vnímání, které umožní vytvořit podmínky pro anarchistickou revoluci. Pokusy promítnout revoluci ze scény do skutečnosti však vedou k dystipickým účinkům. Inscenování revoluce na druhou stranu otevírá účastníkům nové druhy dojmů, které by nebylo možné vyjádřit jinak a jinými prostředky.

Jews Don't Count is a book for people who consider themselves on the right side of history. People fighting the good fight against homophobia, disablism, transphobia and, particularly, racism. People, possibly, like you.It is the comedian and writer David Baddiel's contention that one type of racism has been left out of this fight. In his unique combination of close reasoning, polemic, personal experience and jokes, Baddiel argues that those who think of themselves as on the right side of history have often ignored the history of anti-Semitism. He outlines why and how, in a time of intensely heightened awareness of minorities, Jews don't count as a real minority: and why they should.

Berlín ,1943. Válka se nevyvíjí tak, jak měli Němci slíbeno. Kde jsou všichni muži? Na frontě, nebo pod zemí. Berlín se stává městem žen. Městem navenek poslušných žen, které si nechají všechno líbit. Ale nemylme se. Přivírat oči, dívat se jinam a myslet si svoje se nedá věčně. A přijde okamžik, kdy je třeba zachovat se správně...Sigrid Schröderová je vzorem manželky německého vojáka: denně dochází do práce, s potravinami na příděl dělá, co může, stará se o všetečnou tchyni a ignoruje hrůzné nemravnosti režimu.

Do protějšího bytu se nastěhuje rodina vysoce postaveného důstojníka SS, která ji začne zaplétat do svého příběhu. Mladé ženě, která vypomáhá v rodině s početným potomstvem o patro níž, docházejí výmluvy ještě dřív, než jí Sigrid začne klást otázky. A slepec prodávající na ulici tužky – jako by ji ty oči za tmavými slepeckými brýlemi sledovaly.Sigrid je záhy vtažena do světa, o němž nic nevěděla a který jí otevírá oči. Sleduje, co se kolem ní děje, a její léty pečlivě vystavěné opevnění se postupně drolí. Musí začít rozlišovat, co je správné a co špatné, a co spadá do šedé zóny mezi tím.David Gillham ve svém napínavém románu zkoumá, co se v neobyčejné době děje s obyčejnými lidmi.
