The Physics of Sorrow - Georgi Gospodinov
'Compulsively readable' New York Times'Utterly original' Alberto ManguelIn the small and the insignificant - that's where life hides, that's where it builds its nest. Our unnamed narrator is not well. He suffers from attacks of 'pathological empathy', which cause him to wander unbidden into other people's memories.He moves from recollection to recollection - from a Bulgarian country fair in 1925, where he meets a Minotaur, to inside the mind of a slug, as it is swallowed by his own Grandfather. Part family history, part coming-of-age story, part meditation on life in Communist Europe, The Physics of Sorrow is a dazzlingly inventive, mind-expanding novel from one of Europe's most important writers. TRANSLATED FROM THE BULGARIAN BY ANGELA RODEL

Časokryt - Georgi Gospodinov
Ve svém třetím a zatím posledním románu Časokryt, přeloženým do několika světových jazyků, v Bulharsku oceněným jako nejlepší román roku, a ověnčeným také prestižní Mezinárodní Bookerovou cenou (2023), využívá Georgi Gospodinov fiktivní postavu Gaustina k tomu, aby popsal život s deficitem budoucnosti. Život, ve kterém čas neplyne lineárně, ale stává se součástí nás samých. Gaustin, který dokáže přeskakovat čas jako lesní potůček, se snaží o zdánlivě nemožné – léčit lidi pomocí minulosti. Gaustin, Gospodinovovo alter ego, našel způsob, jak vytvořit kliniky času, kde se lidé trpící ztrátou paměti mohou vrátit do doby, kdy se cítili nejlépe. Tato nemoc, jakási dlouhotrvající časová amnézie, se během vyprávění proměňuje v nemoc, kterou trpí celá společnost. Ta se stává obětí jakési kolektivní „Alzheimerovy choroby“, což vede různé země v Evropě k rozhodnutí dát občanům možnost volby, aby v referendu rozhodli, v jaké historické epoše chtějí žít.Časokryt je kniha osobní i politická. Její autobiografické prvky vyprávějí životní příběh svého autora. Trefnými komentáři minulého, současného a vlastně i budoucího dění je ale také hluboce společenská. Od svého vydání opakovaně generuje paralely se současným politickým a společenským děním.Vítězný román Mezinárodní Bookerovy ceny 2023Vydání knihy podpořil Národní kulturní fond Bulharska.

But behind closed doors, she is a stormcaller, chosen daughter of the Aynilan goddess Anitun Tabu. In hiding not only from the Codicians and their witch hunts, but also from the vengeful eye of her slighted goddess, Lunurin does what she can to protect her fellow Aynilans and the small family she has created in the convent: her lover Catalina, and Cat's younger sister Inez.Lunurin is determined to keep her head down-until one day she makes a devastating discovery, which threatens to tear her family apart. In desperation, she turns for help to Alon Dakila, heir to Aynila's most powerful family, who has been ardently in love with her for years. But this choice sets in motion a chain of events beyond her control, awakening Anitun Tabu's rage and putting everyone Lunurin loves in terrible danger.Torn between the call of Alon's magic and Catalina's jealousy, her duty to her family and to her people, Lunurin can no longer keep Anitun Tabu's fury at bay. The goddess of storms demands vengeance. And she will sweep aside anyone who stands in her way.

Basics of Medical Physics - Daniel Jirák, František Vítek - e-kniha
eBook: Učebnice Basics of Medical Physics (Základy lékařské fyziky) popisuje základní fyzikální vztahy a metody, se kterými se lékař může nejčastěji setkat v klinické nebo experimentální medicíně. Lékařská fyzika je specifická tím, že se zabývá aplikací fyzikálních metod na živý organismus. Je tedy interdisciplinárním vědním oborem, který spojuje fyziku a biologické vědy. Kniha obsahuje osm kapitol: Stavba hmoty; Molekulární biofyzika; Termodynamika; Biofyzika elektrických projevů a účinků; Akustika a fyzikální principy sluchu; Optika; Fyzika rentgenového záření a jeho použití v lékařství; Radioaktivita a ionizující záření. Text je doplněn mnoha obrázky, které pomůžou k snadnějšímu pochopení dané problematiky. Metody, které jsou v učebnici vysvětleny, jsou založeny na různých fyzikálních principech. Některé z nich, např. používání optických zvětšovacích čoček nebo rentgenového záření, jsou známé více než 100 let, jiné nacházejí díky technologickému pokroku uplatnění až v poslední době, jako např. zobrazování magnetickou rezonancí nebo pozitronovou emisní tomografií. Čtenář by tak měl po prostudování této knihy získat ucelený přehled o možnostech využití různých fyzikálních metod v medicíně. Měl by být schopen fyzikální vztahy uvedené v učebnici chápat v širších souvislostech a popsané metody aplikovat v jednotlivých lékařských oborech.

Story Smuggler - Georgi Gospodinov
'Some smuggle cigarettes, others alcohol - or weapons. Our contraband, being invisible, is more dangerous. Our contraband is undetectable by scanners.What we carry as concealed excess baggage is stories.'In this exquisite literary gem, Georgi Gospodinov, winner of the International Booker Prize, invites the reader on a winding journey through his own memories. He shows us a childhood under Communism, a particularly Bulgarian variety of melancholy, the freedom and thrills found in reading and writing, and the coming of age of one extraordinary writer. Ultimately, this profound, playful and deeply moving autobiographical text offers resounding proof of the power and importance of storytelling.TRANSLATED FROM THE BULGARIAN BY KRISTINA KOVACHEVA AND DAN GUNN

Fyzika smutku - Georgi Gospodinov
Gospodinovovu Fyziku smutku je možné zařadit k již etablovaným postmoderním románům. Ovšem kromě intelektuální hry, jež se projevuje například v mnohavrstevnatých odkazech na antickou mytologii či bulharské reálie, vykazuje také prvky lyrické prózy. Sice i v tomto případě Gospodinov tematizuje žánr románu a jeho hranice či principy, ale současně se snaží rehabilitovat klasické vyprávění. Mezi tyto snahy by se dala řadit i jedna z hlavních linií románu, jež nejen rekonstruuje mýtus o Mínótaurovi, ale zároveň se ho snaží nově nahlédnout a přehodnotit. Fyziku smutku je možné číst jako zprávu o složité románové kompozici a jejích stavebních principech, ale zároveň je možné v ní sledovat napínavé příběhy jednotlivých vypravěčů, jejichž osudy se proplétají napříč prostorem i časem.

Zahradník a smrt - Georgi Gospodinov
Můj otec byl zahradníkem. Nyní je zahradou.Příběh otce, syna a posledního úsvitu - milosrdného a nelítostného zároveň. "Tato kniha nemá jednoduchý žánr," píše Georgi Gospodinov, "musí si ho vynalézt sama. Stejně jako smrt nemá žánr. Jako život. Jako zahrada. Román elegie, román zahrada, memoár nebo memoromán - copak záleží na botanice smutku? Příběh o odcházejících otcích v odcházejícím světě.O těch tragických kuřácích, ulpívajících na šnorchlu cigarety, plujících v jiných vodách a na jiných oblacích. O mém otci, který na svých bedrech nesl tuny minulosti a nikdy je nepřestal vyprávět." Není to kniha o smrti, ale o životě, který mizí. A v tom je rozdíl.

Sweet Sorrow - David Nicholls
One life-changing summer Sixteen-year-old Charlie meets Fran... 8 million copies since STARTER FOR TEN first introduced us to his incomparable talent for making us laugh, cry and wince with recognition in the space of a single sentence; ten years after ONE DAY became the iconic love story for a generation; five years since the journey of US took him to the Man Booker Prize long-list; DAVID NICHOLLS has written a major new novel, SWEET SORROW: a hymn to the tragicomedy of ordinary lives, a celebration of the reviving power of friendship and that brief, blinding explosion of first love that perhaps can only be looked at directly once it has burned out. 'Nicholls writes with such tender precision about love' The Times 'There is a sharp empathetic intelligence to his writing that makes his characters real . . . the clear writing often dazzles with truth . . . sad funny, soulful' Observer 'A sublime talent for illuminating the murky causeway that most of us have to navigate between darkness and light' Donal Ryan 'Nicholls' ability to create and then subvert the traditional plot for comedy is the secret of his success. It makes us confront the gap between what we expect from storytelling and what happens in real life'

Stephen Hawking : Friendship and Physics - Leonard Mlodinow
CHOSEN AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN, DAILY TELEGRAPH, NEW STATESMAN AND BBC SCIENCE FOCUS 'An intimate, unique, and inspiring perspective on the life and work of one of the greatest minds of our time. Filled with insight, humour, and never-before-told stories, it's a view of Stephen Hawking that few have seen and all will appreciate' James Clear, author of Atomic Habits An icon of the last fifty years, Stephen Hawking seems to encapsulate genius: not since Albert Einstein has a scientific figure held such a position in popular consciousness. In this enthralling memoir, writer and physicist Leonard Mlodinow tells the story of his friend and their collaboration, offering an intimate account of this giant of science. The two met in 2003, when Stephen asked Leonard if he would consider writing a book with him, the follow up to the bestselling A Brief History of Time. As they spent years working on a second book, The Grand Design, they forged a deep connection and Leonard gained a much better understanding of Stephen's daily life and struggles -- as well as his compassion and good humour. Together they obsessed over the perfect sentence, debated the physics, and occasionally punted on Cambridge's waterways with champagne and strawberries. In time, Leonard was able to finish Stephen's jokes, chide his sporadic mischief, and learn how the hardships of his illness helped forge that unique perspective on the universe. By weaving together their shared story with a clear-sighted portrayal of Hawking's scientific achievements, Mlodinow creates a beautiful portrait of Stephen Hawking as a brilliant, impish and generous man whose life was not only exceptional but also genuinely inspiring.

The Children of the Anthropocene: Stories from the Young People at the Heart of the Climate Crisis
Across the planet, the futures of young people hang in the balance as they face the harsh realities of the environmental crisis. Isn't it time we made their voices heard?The Children of the Anthropocene, by conservationist and activist Bella Lack, chronicles the lives of the diverse young people on the frontlines of the environmental crisis around the world, amplifying the voices of those living at the heart of the crisis.Advocating for the protection of both people and the planet, Bella restores the beating heart to global environmental issues, from air pollution to deforestation and overconsumption, by telling the stories of those most directly affected. Transporting us from the humming bounty of Ecuador's Choco Rainforest and the graceful arcs of the Himalayan Mountains, to the windswept plains and vibrant vistas of life in Altiplano, Bella speaks to young activists from around the world including Dara McAnulty, Afroz Shah and Artemisa Xakriabá, and brings the crisis vividly to life.It's time we passed the mic and listened to different perspectives. Bella's manifestos for change will inspire and mobilize you to rediscover the wonders and wilds of nature and, ultimately, change the way you think about our planet in crisis. This is your chance to hear the urgent stories of an endangered species too often overlooked: the children of the Anthropocene. ____________________________'Extraordinarily moving, wild and engaging - the book of the moment' Mary Robinson, Former President of Ireland and author of Climate Justice'A visionary statement for the future [...] Pragmatic, positive & beautifully written' Ben Macdonald, Award-Winning Conservation Writer, Wildlife TV Producer and Naturalist
