'A startling psychological mystery' Michael Greenberg. Benjamín Chaparro is a man haunted by his past. A retired detective, he remains obsessed with the decades-old case of the rape and murder of a young woman in her own bedroom. As he revisits the details of the investigation, he is reacquainted with his similarly long, unrequited love for Irene Hornos, then just an intern, now a respected judge. Set in the Buenos Aires of the 1970s, The Secret in Their Eyes reveals the underpinnings of Argentina's Dirty War, and asks what justice really means. And it explores the boundaries of love in all its forms: adoration, devotion and, finally, obsession.

Banks have taken a backseat since the global financial crisis over a decade ago. Today, our new financial masters are asset managers, like Blackstone and BlackRock. And they don't just own financial assets.The roads we drive on; the pipes that supply our drinking water; the farmland that provides our food; energy systems for electricity and heat; hospitals, schools, and even the homes in which many of us live-all now swell asset managers' bulging investment portfolios.As the owners of more and more of the basic building blocks of everyday life, asset managers shape the lives of each and every one of us in profound and disturbing ways. In this eye-opening follow-up to Rentier Capitalism, Brett Christophers peels back the veil on ""asset manager society.""Asset managers, he shows, are unlike traditional owners of housing and other essential infrastructure. Buying and selling these life-supporting assets at a dizzying pace, the crux of their business model is not long-term investment and careful custodianship but making quick profits for themselves and the investors that back them.In asset manager society, the natural and built environments that sustain us become one more vehicle for siphoning money from the many to the few.

We all know we should be learning and growing. But how do you make time while under pressure to perform?Too many of us suffer from 'chronic performance': we feel constant pressure to look like we know what we're doing, to always be on, to rack up success after success and have all the answers, all because we assume that greater effort leads to greater success. But this temptation to portray ourselves as infallible is affecting both our work and personal lives and is blocking our ability for true growth.Through his work with over a hundred companies, co-founder of Mindset Works Eduardo Briceno has solved this by coming up with a game-changing framework that breaks our habit of chronic performance.He's discovered that long-term success as an individual or business - personal, financial and, organisational - relies on integrating and being proficient at learning and performing.In The Performance Paradox, you will learn how to:- Unlock the power of mistakes- Integrate learning into daily habits- Move seamlessly between learning and performing- Solicit the most useful feedback- Lead teams that constantly improve and outperform their targetsGround-breaking and empowering, The Performance Paradox will break your chronic performance habit and revolutionise the way you approach growth mindset to get you on your way to thriving in both work and life.

eBook: Hlavní tezí knihy je tvrzení, že ačkoliv orientalistické či religionistické bádání zdánlivě předkládá nezkreslené, objektivní interpretace indických tradic, ve skutečnosti jde o pokřivené obrazy odkazující především k vlastní evropské kultuře badatelů. Při důkladném zkoumání se ukazuje, nakolik jsou orientalistika i další humanitní obory stále ještě ovlivněny teologickým předporozuměním. Anglické vydání.

Je rozdělena do 20 kapitol a jsou v ní uvedeny všechny poznatky nutné k porozumění matematické teorie metody konečných prvků a případné práci v této teorii. Část II, i když nese název Basic applications of the theory of Sobolev spaces in the finite element method (Základní aplikace teorie Sobolevových prostorů v metodě konečných prvků), obsahuje v kapitole 26 důkaz nejobtížnější věty uvedené v knize. Část III Variational problems in bad domains (Variační problémy ve špatných oblastech) obsahuje některé autorovy výsledky o metodě konečných prvků v dvojrozměrných oblastech, jejichž hranice mají tzv. body vratu. Část IV Variational problems in the case of parabolic-elliptic equations (Variační problémy v případě parabolicko-eliptických rovnic) obsahuje některé autorovy výsledky, které mají aplikace v kvazistacionárních problémech elektromagnetických polí, zejména v teorii točivých elektrických strojů Část V Semiregaular finite elements (Semiregulární konečné prvky).

Now a major film starring Gemma Arterton, Sam Claflin and Bill Nighy. It's 1940. In a small advertising agency in Soho, Catrin Cole writes snappy lines for Vida Elastic and So-Bee-Fee gravy browning. But the nation is in peril, all skills are transferable and there's a place in the war effort for those who have a knack with words. Catrin is conscripted into the world of propaganda films. After a short spell promoting the joy of swedes for the Ministry of Food, she finds herself writing dialogue for 'Just an Ordinary Wednesday', a heart-warming but largely fabricated 'true story' about rescue and romance on the beaches of Dunkirk. And as bombs start to fall on London, she discovers that there's just as much drama, comedy and passion behind the scenes as there is in front of the camera...originally published as Their Finest Hour and a Half.

What a gorgeous read, full of heart’ Liz Fenwick, author of The River Between Us ‘Warm, tender and wise, Sharon Gosling’s well-crafted, engrossing story was a pleasure to read’ Rachel Hore, author of The Hidden YearsCan a return to the past be the start of something new? Bette and Nina Crowdie have never been close – the ten-year age difference doesn’t help, and Bette’s rarely been home since she left for university at eighteen. When their father passes away and unexpectedly splits the family farm between them, Nina is furious and afraid. She’s been working at the farm for the past five years. It’s the only home her young son, Barnaby, has ever had, and she’s convinced that Bette will sell at the first chance she gets. When they discover the huge debt their father has been hiding, Bette reluctantly agrees to help her sister. But that means they have to find a way to work together, and Bette must face up to the real reason she left all those years ago. Could a long-forgotten diary and the discovery of a secret orchard on their land help save the farm – and the sisters’ relationship? Praise for Sharon Gosling: 'A compelling read with a dramatic sense of place and a caring community at its heart' Heidi Swain ‘A warm, romantic mystery, beautifully structured and feelingly written’ ― Daily Mail

It is twenty years since the events of La Belle Sauvage: The Book of Dust Volume One unfolded and saw the baby Lyra Belacqua begin her life-changing journey. It is almost ten years since readers left Lyra and the love of her young life, Will Parry, on a park bench in Oxford's Botanic Gardens at the end of the ground-breaking, bestselling His Dark Materials sequence. Now, in The Secret Commonwealth, we meet Lyra Silvertongue. And she is no longer a child . . . The second volume of Philip Pullman's The Book of Dust sees Lyra, now twenty years old, and her daemon Pantalaimon, forced to navigate their relationship in a way they could never have imagined, and drawn into the complex and dangerous factions of a world that they had no idea existed. Pulled along on his own journey too is Malcolm; once a boy with a boat and a mission to save a baby from the flood, now a man with a strong sense of duty and a desire to do what is right. Theirs is a world at once familiar and extraordinary, and they must travel far beyond the edges of Oxford, across Europe and into Asia, in search for what is lost - a city haunted by daemons, a secret at the heart of a desert, and the mystery of the elusive Dust. The Secret Commonwealth is truly a book for our times; a powerful adventure and a thought-provoking look at what it is to understand yourself, to grow up and make sense of the world around you. This is storytelling at its very best from one of our greatest writers.
