Towards the end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire Prague still possessed its venerable majesty, but now it was fast becoming a modern European metropolis. The old Jewish Quarter had been replaced with broad boulevards, modern bridges spanned the river, and the first steam trains from Vienna were arriving at the station. While only recently the Emperor and his guard had promenaded here, soon independence would be declared and a new country, Czechoslovakia, would be founded. The remarkable photographs in this book capture key moments and everyday life in Prague. Pavel Scheufler has selected over 140 photographs from his family's archive and written a learned commentary on each one. This book is not only a valuable account of a city in transition, but a guide to reading photographs in a way that lets us hear the fascinating stories they tell.

A unique look at the visionary artist, educator and activist Ruth Asawa (1926–2013). ‘I state, without hesitation or reserve, that I consider Ruth Asawa to be the most gifted, productive, and originally inspired artist that I have ever known personally’ R. Buckminster Fuller, 1971 Although less known outside North America, Japanese-American artist Ruth Asawa is an artist of vital importance to modern art. Ruth Asawa: Citizen of the Universe, which accompanies the first exhibition of Asawa’s work to be staged in public galleries in Europe, introduces European audiences to both Asawa’s powerful art - including her signature hanging sculptures in looped and tied wire - and her pioneering education practice. It positions her expansive ethos – her self-identification as ‘a citizen of the universe’ and belief that art education can be life enriching for everyone - as a catalyst for creative forward-thinking in the 21st century. Focusing on a dynamic and formative period in her life from 1945 to 1980, this book gives readers a unique experience of the artist and her work, exploring her legacy from a European perspective and positioning her as an abstract sculptor crucial to American modernism. It is a wonderful celebration of her holistic integration of art, education and community engagement, through which she called for a revolutionary and inclusive vision of art’s role in society.

Audiokniha: Bílá idylka? Vždyť ve tmě a závějích může vraždit kdokoli… Topher St. Clair-Bridges, šéf londýnského start-upu Snoop, se rozhodl uspořádat týdenní teambuilding pro deset loajálních zaměstnanců. Aktuální trendy velí, že zatáhnout účet za posezení v hospodě dávno nestačí. Luxusní lyžařský výlet do francouzských Alp, spojený s relaxací v panenské horské přírodě, ale nečekaně naruší spoluzakladatelka společnosti Eva van den Bergová, která do uvolněné atmosféry vnese nádech neodbytné pracovní záležitosti. Bílá idylka je v tahu. A jakmile hosty horské chaty odřízne od zbytku světa a elektřiny lavina, jdou veškeré řevnivosti i ponorkové nálady stranou. Nebo že by ne? Stmelování týmu se mění ve smrtící past, v níž umírá jeden za druhým… Bestsellerová autorka servíruje perfektně vychlazený koktejl napětí a záhad, který vás nenechá ani na okamžik v klidu. Milovníci klasických detektivek Agathy Christie (zvlášť Deseti malých černoušků :)) rozhodně nebudou zklamáni. Navíc hory byly odedávna skvělý plenér pro zločin!

Nebo je jasné, more pokojne, vyberaní hostia v dobrej nálade, keď sa výletná loď Aurora vydá na plavbu po malebnom Severnom mori. Spočiatku je pre Lo pobyt na lodi číra radosť: kajuty sú prepychové, večierky iskrivé a elegantní hostia zábavní. No ako sa týždeň chýli ku koncu, nebo sa zatiahne, palubu bičuje studený vietor a Lo sa stane svedkom desivej udalosti, ktorá jej pripomína hrôzostrašnú nočnú moru: jednu ženu zhodia cez palubu. Podľa záznamov však nikto z pasažierov na lodi nechýba, a tak sa loď plaví ďalej, akoby sa nič nestalo, napriek zúfalej snahe presvedčiť ľudí, že sa stalo niečo strašné. Prekvapivé zvraty v deji a tajomne krásne no klaustrofobické prostredie robia z tohto románu Ruth Ware skutočnú čitateľskú lahôdku.

C.S. Lewis's 1943 The Abolition of Man is a set of three essays that encapsulate some of the most important elements of good critical thinking. Lewis considers a weighty topic, moral philosophy - and more precisely how we teach it, and where morality comes from. As critics and enthusiasts for Lewis's work alike have noted, though, he was not a philosopher as such, but a professor of literature. And rather than presenting novel or original ideas, the essays' true qualities lie in the ways in which they evaluate and judge the arguments of prior philosophers, and how they construct a coherent, highly persuasive argument for Lewis's own point of view. Lewis takes issue with textbooks and philosophies that argue for (or imply) that all morals and moral judgments are relative. He deploys evaluative skills to point out the weaknesses in such arguments and then sets out for his readers the kind of moral future such relativism could lead to. This hard-hitting evaluation, in turn, provides a solid base upon which to construct a well-argued counter-proposal, that moral laws can be absolute, and stem from objective, universal values. Persuasive and enthralling, The Abolition of Man showcases reasoning at its best.

How has democracy become so threatened – and what can we do to save it?With the clarity and brilliance that made their first book, How Democracies Die, a global bestseller, leading Harvard professors Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt offer a coherent new framework for understanding the dangerous times we live in. They draw on a wealth of examples – from the Capitol riots to Edwardian Britain, from 1930s France to present-day Thailand – to explore right-wing efforts to undermine the very foundations of the American political system, and to explain why and how political parties turn against democracy. With its attention on factors from election losses to demographic change and voting rights, its urgent call for a reform of our politics to balance the need for majority rule with the need for minority protections, and a citizens’ movement to put enough pressure on lawmakers to act before it’s too late, Tyranny of the Minority is a must-read for everyone keen to see more vibrant democracy – and to understand where future threats may come from.

'Someone had told Dex that the Queen lived in Victoria. So did he, but she had a palace and he had one room in a street off Warwick Way. Still he liked the idea that she was his neighbour.' Dex works as a gardener for Dr Jefferson at his home on Hexam Place in Pimlico: an exclusive street of white-painted stucco Georgian houses inhabited by the rich, and serviced by the not so rich. The hired help, a motley assortment of au pairs, drivers and cleaners, decide to form the St Zita Society (Zita was the patron saint of domestic servants) as an excuse to meet at the local pub and air their grievances. When Dex is invited to attend one of these meetings, the others find that he is a strange man, seemingly ill at ease with human beings. These first impressions are compounded when they discover he has recently been released from a hospital for the criminally insane, where he was incarcerated for attempting to kill his own mother. Dex's most meaningful relationship seems to be with his mobile phone service provider, Peach, and he interprets the text notifications and messages he receives from the company as a reassuring sign that there is some kind of god who will protect him. And give him instructions about ridding the world of evil spirits...Accidental death and pathological madness cohabit above and below stairs in Hexam Place.
